The postman lived in town. He had heard many rumors about the town mayor’s wife.

Sun Dongqing was not the only one who came to look for the letter of notification. Anyone whose child took part in the high school entrance exam came to ask for the letter. The adults were even more excited than their children.

Ye Ying wore a flower-printed dress and stood obediently beside Sun Dongqing. She rarely went out of her house the entire summer vacation so her skin got fairer. She wasn’t as proud as before anymore.

What happened at that time caused a huge commotion in the village. Every single villager knew what happened. Hence, Ye Ying didn’t come back for the entire winter vacation. She stayed at the provincial city to study English.

One year had pa.s.sed. The villagers seldom talked about the event anymore. Ye Ying kept a low profile so many villagers had forgotten about what happened.

Zhang Defu took out Ye Ying’s letter and pa.s.sed it to Sun Dongqing. “This is yours.” Then, he pa.s.sed the other four letters out. “These are yours. As for the rest… you all can disperse now.”

There were 11 children who took part in the exam but only six letters arrived. Those that never received a letter didn’t manage to get into high school.

“Oh my G.o.d, Yingying, it’s the Provincial No.1 Middle School. I knew it. My Yingying definitely can get into the Provincial No.1 Middle School.” Sun Dongqing looked at the school name on the letter and smiled proudly. She looked at the other parents who didn’t get a letter and pretended to console them, “It’s alright. Studying is not the only path a child can take. Every trade has its master. If they can’t study, they should go out and earn some money. It’s a good thing too.”

Talk is cheap. If they really wanted their child to go out and work, they wouldn’t have rush here to ask for the letter.

No one argued with her. She was the town mayor’s wife after all.
