The top 20 winning students received their awards on the stage and were then taken back by teachers from their respective schools.
Well, the winning students from other places also have to go back. They need to pack their luggage and other things, and gather again in Kyoto in a month.
After Chu Yao and Lu Ranran parted ways, she went straight home. She knew that her family wanted to know the final result.
Chu Yao quickened her pace and walked towards home.
"Ayao, you're back. What happened?"
"Ayao, are you tired? Drink some water and rest for a while."
"Ayao, no matter what the outcome is, the important thing is to participate."
The other family members also gathered around Chu Yao, they were very curious about the final result.
From the moment Chu Yao entered the room, she acted very serious and had a stern face.
Yao Jinnian carefully observed Chu Yao's expression and knew that she had achieved good results in this competition.
Yao Jinnian shook his head in amusement. This kid was still as playful as ever.
Chu Yao knew that Uncle Nian knew the result of the competition, so she quickly comforted her anxious family, saying, "Mom, Dad, brother and sister-in-law, don't worry, I passed the competition and will be going abroad for an exchange in a month."
"You damn child." Lin Ling said as she pinched Chu Yao, but it didn't hurt much.
Chu Yao pretended to be in pain and cried out "Ouch".
Wu Siyu proudly called the old man to go out and buy vegetables.
The brothers and sisters-in-law of both families are also very happy. This is going abroad. No one in their family has such a great future. The sister/brother-in-law is really awesome and brings honor to the family.
It’s a pity that they rarely go home now, otherwise they would have to go back to show off.
After the adults congratulated her, they left to do other things. Chu Yao was instantly surrounded by several children.
My brother and sister-in-law were going to buy materials for the next day, and the old people came back from buying groceries to celebrate Chu Yao's passing the competition. They were happy but also a little sad because A Yao had to go abroad for study and exchange for a year.
They won't be able to see Chu Yao for a year, especially now that it's not very convenient to contact her.
Lin Ling secretly wiped away her tears several times.
In the living room, Yang Zhao and several other children surrounded Chu Yao. They were very curious about their mother's/aunt's participation in the competition. Chu Yao was never perfunctory with the children, so she explained in detail the topic, process and feelings of her competition, and told the children what she observed.
It doesn’t matter if they are still young and don’t understand, it’s good to leave an impression on them.
When the children's leader Chu Yao talked about the exciting part, the children exclaimed in surprise and asked a hundred thousand questions. Facing their inquiring eyes, Chu Yao patiently answered them one by one.
Children are very curious at this time. When they encounter something they don't understand, they have to ask and figure it out. This makes Chu Yao very tired.
Fortunately, she can still deal with these problems for the time being and can still speak out about them.
Finally, when dinner was served, Chu Yao was rescued.
There was another bustle at the dinner table. The mothers of both families tried their best to make more delicious food so that Chu Yao could enjoy the meal.
After dinner, Chu Heng and Yang Ming automatically washed the dishes. This was already a tacit practice in their family.
The excitement finally subsided, and now they were a little worried about whether A Yao could adapt to life abroad.
Lin Ling and Wu Siyu expressed their concerns.
A mother worries about her child even when he is far away. This is a common problem for every parent.
The two fathers and Yao Jinnian felt that Chu Yao would adapt quickly.
Chu Yao winked at her two sisters-in-law, which diverted the attention of the two mothers.
Chu Yao quickly hid in the study, and Uncle Nian came in after a while.
"Uncle Nian, if it weren't for your devilish training this time, I would have been in danger."
"You, don't act like a good kid. How good are you? How could I possibly know that?" Yao Jinnian continued, "Ayao, were you hesitant during the competition? Did you want to go abroad but also feel reluctant? That's why you did this."
Chu Yao nodded dejectedly. She had said nice things before, saying that she would give it her all, but she also knew that she was being hypocritical, or perhaps a little pretentious.
She wanted it and didn't want it at the same time. What made her change her mind in the end?
Chu Yao was lost in thought.
Yao Jinnian picked up a book and read it without disturbing Chu Yao's thoughts.
He knew this child, and since she had made her choice, he believed that she would do well.
Chu Yao is indeed a good child, no matter from which aspect.
"Uncle Nian, actually, you are the one who worries me the most. You are also the one who makes me hesitate. I am afraid." Chu Yao said with a choked voice.
Yao Jinnian guessed it and sighed.
"Ayao, have the things you are worried about happened?"
Chu Yao shook her head.
"After you leave, do you think your parents and Yang Hang will ignore me?"
Chu Yao shook her head again.
Yao Jinnian paused and said, "Ayao, are you afraid that you won't be able to see me when you come back?"
Chu Yao nodded with tears in her eyes. She was afraid of this.
"Uncle Nian, I don't want to be away from you because of my career. I promised to take good care of you and provide for your retirement. I don't want you to be exhausted. I also want to wait until Uncle Nian retires completely, and Ah Hang and I will take you around our country, to visit different places, meet different people, and appreciate different scenery."
"Uncle Nian, this is my ideal life for you in your old age. I don't want to leave any regrets for myself or you."
