Chapter 23: Champion (2/2)
After enjoying spending time with his grandchild for half a month, the provincial school needed him for something and he could only reluctantly leave.
After he left, Tang Hongjun and his wife found a passbook in the sugar bowl on the coffee table at home, which contained 500,000 yuan.
Chen Suling wanted to take it back for the old man. Tang Hongjun stopped her and said with a smile: ”No, even if you send it back to Dad, Dad won't take it, the money is not for us.”
Chen Suling wondered: ”Who is it for?”
”For Xiaoyu.”
Chen Suling didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She took the money and sighed, feeling soft in her heart: ”Then I keep it for Xiaoyu first, and then give it to him when he gets older.”
Tang Hongjun originally wanted to joke about how the money basically belonged to her, but he stopped himself from saying it out loud once that thought crossed his mind.
They both knew well of their son's physical condition. They don't dislike him and are willing to accompany him for the rest of their lives, but it doesn't mean they can lie to themselves.. This money can be saved up for his son, to buy at least two houses for him to own. It just so happened that he just got promoted, so maybe he can open a shop together… Tang Hongjun thought for a while and firmly believed that he would raise his son in wealth.
At this moment, the rent-collector Tang Jinyu didn't know about his upcoming wealth, eating a watermelon at Teacher Xia's house.
Xia Ye was too lazy to cut the watermelon, so he picked a small sliced watermelon for himself and gave the rest of the watermelon for him to eat, and he ate it with a spoon.
Tang Jinyu was sitting cross-legged on the sofa. The watermelon was too heavy. He could only hold it in his arms, eating a spoonful of it into his mouth, making his cheeks bulge up, and he ate with gusto like a hamster.
Xia Ye was sitting next to him, holding a watermelon in one hand and checking for his results on the other.
The results of the senior high school entrance examination came down. He checked each subject and his scores ended up being the same as he expected
His mathematics exam results haven’t come out yet. If it was consistent with his estimation, first place was not far from his reach but he doesn’t know how high he needed to score
. According to the results of previous years, being in the top five, gives out scholarships of about 2000 yuan, which was enough to buy a new accordion for the child.
Xia Ye glanced at the kid next to him who was eating watermelon obediently, and took a piece of tissue for him, ”Wipe your lips.”
”Okay~”
Xia Ye couldn't help laughing as he looked at his happy little face, holding a tissue.
One big and one small were happy, and the phone rang at home.
Xia Ye thought it was a classmate who came to ask for his score, and he answered with a ‘Hello’. As a result, it turned out to be his head teacher on the phone. His voice was happy and eager through the phone: ”Xia Ye! Number one, you got number one in the city Hahahahahahahaha!
”First in the city?”
”Yes! The difficulty of this year's math questions has increased. The last two major questions were difficult, a lot of scores dropped from them, do you know how well you scored on your math exam! 119 points, almost a perfect score!”
”Oh.”
”Why are you so calm! Don't you have anything to say to teacher?”
”Yes, how can I get my last point?”
”…???”
The author has something to say: The scores in the 2000 high school entrance examination are different from region to region. The full score here is 120 points~
