Chapter 29: Take In Hand One Each

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qiao Nan was pleased, Qiao Zijin was just a Literature and Art Committee Member, and her mother was so proud and flattered.

Qiao Nan suspected that Qiao Zijin managed to land the role because of the money from her mother.

In high school, Literature and Art was not popular, the fewer activities they had in school the better. Literature and Art had the most arduous but thankless jobs, unless Qiao Zijin was interested in a career path in this field.

Otherwise, whenever there were school activities, the Literature and Art Committee members worked the hardest, could she still study?

Qiao Zijin did not have good grades, by putting Literature and Art under her charge, was she being valued or mocked? It did not cross her mother’s mind.

“Nan Nan, what role did you take on?” Qiao Dongliang smiled, to him, being a school committee member was a good matter.

“Vice Cla.s.s Monitor in cla.s.s. Dad, I’ve always been the Vice Cla.s.s Monitor. Every semester, I bring home the certificate of award to me for being one of the top three model students and outstanding cla.s.s committee member.”

“Vice Cla.s.s Monitor?” Qiao Dongliang was surprised. He did not know that his younger daughter had been the Vice Cla.s.s Monitor for years. “Where’s the certificate of award? I don’t think I have seen it at home before.”

Top three model students and outstanding cla.s.s committee member, these awards were worth being proud of!

Each year, when Qiao Dongliang saw other children instead of his own receiving an award, he would console himself that it did not matter. As long the elder daughter was obedient and sensible and the younger daughter was good in her studies – these mattered the most.

It only occurred to Qiao Dongliang today that his child had actually received awards before, and these were the best awards. Top three model student, that was not an award that could be given to any Tom, d.i.c.k or Harry.

“It’s just Vice Cla.s.s Monitor, not Cla.s.s Monitor. What is so great about this.” Ding Jiayi’s face was awkward.

“Aren’t you quite pleased that Zijin became a Literature and Art committee member? Don’t tell me that Vice Cla.s.s Monitor is worse than Literature and Art committee member.” Qiao Dongliang was speechless. What was Old Ding’s logic?

If this continued, even if the elder daughter’s feet stank, Old Ding would think that it was fragrant.

“Nan Nan, four semesters have pa.s.sed. Two certificate of awards for each semester, you should have received at least eight, take them out and show me!”

His child was an award-winner!

In future, when his colleagues from the same department asked, he finally had something else that he was proud of to talk about besides his younger daughter’s academic results.

“Aren’t they just a few pieces of lousy paper, there’s nothing to see. It’s already so late, are we still eating?” Ding Jiayi interrupted Qiao Dongliang and quickly served the food.

As Qiao Zijin was not at home, Ding Jiayi initially did not want to buy any meat. After all, the family funds were low.

But Qiao Dongliang requested, so Ding Jiayi had no choice but to prepare meat for today’s dinner.

To shut Qiao Nan up, Ding Jiayi filled Qiao Nan’s bowl with meat using her chopsticks: “Hurry up and eat, then go back to your room to revise your homework. Don’t waste the money that was used to let you go to school.”

Qiao Nan’s eyes flashed with sarcasm, she did not argue with her mother and proceeded to eat her meat.

“What do you mean?” The then Qiao Dongliang frowned. “Old Ding, Nan Nan’s awards, where have they gone?”

Ding Jiayi slapped the chopsticks on the table. “Aren’t they just a few pieces of paper? How should I know where they are? They do not belong to me. It’s paper, not gold. Isn’t it normal for them to become rotten?”
