"These one hundred taels are my personal reward for you. Take it back and spend it as you like!"
"In addition, one hundred taels of first-class scholarships will be awarded to you at tomorrow's commendation meeting."
Xiao Letian hurriedly pushed back.
Fang Zheng stuffed it into his chest without any explanation, and said seriously: "Take it! You deserve it. Those who have merit cannot be rewarded, which is equivalent to encouraging mediocrity. You are ruining the school's ethics!"
Xiao Letian slowly let go of his hand, his eyes a little moist.
Principal Fang is not only talented, but also such a considerate person. Although he didn't say it, he probably knew that his family background was not good, so he was like this...
Seeing him accept it, Fang Zheng said: "Three hundred and sixty lines, and you will be the number one scholar. This road has a bright future in the future. You must study with peace of mind. With your talent, sooner or later you can live the life you want." "
"Um!"
...
Early the next morning, an unusual scene occurred at Eastern Suburb University.
Big red flowers were hung everywhere in the school, and a band was invited to play.
Many students who had no classes in the morning were dragged up sleepily.
When I asked, I found out that it was someone who had graduated from a bachelor's degree to a junior college!
I ran out of the dormitory and saw messages posted everywhere.
Some dormitories also have a special place to post notices downstairs.
Hanging above it is Xiao Letian's thesis, and the title is Air Flow.
Many students watched it attentively, but not long after watching it, they were kicked out to the playground to attend the commendation meeting.
On the rostrum, Fang Zhengyi looked down with joy.
This is another wave of powerful publicity. We should take this opportunity to consolidate the reputation of Eastern Suburbs University so that the rest of the matter will be easier to handle.
There are many talented people like Xiao Letian who have good foundation but cannot enter school due to traditional concepts.
Only by allowing them to see real money and praise from the people can it be possible to attract more talents to enroll.
When everyone arrived, Fang Zhengyi didn't hesitate this time.
Pulling Xiao Letian, who seemed unusually reserved, he loudly announced the birth of Dongjiao University’s first undergraduate to junior college student!
Then on the spot, an oversized board with the words "One Hundred Liang of Silver" written on it and half a person's height was handed over to Xiao Letian.
Xiao Letian held the giant board and kept giggling at the people below.
But I was a little confused... I thought it was real money, so why did I get a big brand?
There were already a lot of exclamations below, countless students were shouting excitedly, and many people were jealous.
Although I didn’t win the award myself, the publicity promises I made before enrolling were obviously true and not a lie!
Fang Zheng smiled and said nothing, waiting for the warm atmosphere below to calm down.
After waiting for a long time, there were cheers and laughter, and Fang Zhengyi spoke: "Now let's invite our first student who has been promoted from undergraduate to junior college to give a speech!"
Xiao Letian forced a smile, walked to the front, and took out the speech that Fang Zhengyi had prepared in advance.
He cleared his throat and said: "Dear teachers and students, good morning! In this passionate day..."
"...Finally, as a Dongda person, I sincerely wish all the teachers good luck in their work and good health, and I wish all the students to make progress in their studies; I believe that the future of Dongda will be more brilliant, with students all over the world and talents shining in China."
After half an hour, the speech was over.
Fang Zheng stepped forward and said: "Everyone, today's commendation meeting is over. If you are interested, you can communicate more with classmate Xiao Letian. The meeting is dismissed!"
After that, Fang Zheng turned to look at Mo Xiaohu behind him and said: "Xiaohu, you go find a few painters and draw a portrait of Xiao Xiao. Write down his life experience and so on, and then make a famous wall and put it up in the school. From now on, Every student who has achieved important results does this!"
Mo Xiaohu nodded and left.
Xiao Letian also breathed a sigh of relief, thanked Fang Zheng again and walked off the podium.
The students in the audience have not dispersed yet, waiting to get a glimpse of the glory of the college students.
When Xiao Letian walked into the crowd, familiar students immediately rushed up and started asking various questions.
The rest of the students who were not familiar with each other and did not study well could only watch from a distance, trembling in the face of the strong 'coercion' emanating from the strong men in the college...
At the same time, the people in the capital were in an uproar!
The content on the main page of today's Banshan Daily is exactly Xiao Letian's information about undergraduate and junior college promotion!
It first published an essay, and then a large introduction on how he worked hard since childhood and gained a new life after entering school.
Although all the people who read the paper were confused and didn't know what the use was.
But real money and silver are given!
This is enough, otherwise why would you let your family go to the eastern suburbs?
So the people rushed to tell each other, and by the way, they discussed the contents of the paper that they didn't know what it was for...
Xiao Kang is working normally in Japan today.
There happened to be a dedicated newspaper reader near the place where I was working, so I could take a break after working for an hour.
I took advantage of this moment to go out and listen to today's news.
After listening carefully, I actually heard my son’s name!
Xiao Kang made a prompt decision, took a day off, and bought a newspaper that he was usually reluctant to buy.
After returning home, I studied it carefully.
After reading the entire article, Xiao Kang fell silent.
In fact, after such a long time, he has reconciled with himself in his heart.
After all, this is just a son who has chosen another path with all his heart. How can he come back and go back to the old path that has failed many times?
I read in the newspaper how hard my son worked and studied seriously.
Xiao Kang sighed sadly.
If he had spent so much energy on studying, he would have already become an official.
A trace of loneliness flashed in Xiao Kang's eyes...
But at this moment, there was a knock on the door!
He stood up and opened the door. A woman with heavy makeup stood outside the door, looking at him with a fawning expression.
"Old Xiao! Is your son at home?"
This woman is a well-known matchmaker in nearby streets. Why did she show up at her door today?
Xiao Kang asked in confusion: "Something happened? Why are you looking for him?"
The woman covered her mouth and smiled coyly, patting Xiao Kang with her hand: "Oh, you are so lucky, Lao Xiao! Your son has been admitted to a junior college, and no one in the neighborhood knows about it now! The girl from the old Zhang family on the street has fallen in love with your son. Ask me to be a matchmaker. Your son is not young anymore, how about... I go to his house for you to talk about it? "
Xiao Kang sneered: "Why did you suddenly fall in love with my son today?"
"Look at what you said, this little girl is so embarrassed... She just came to beg me today, why am I here now?"
"I saw that my son is rich!" Xiao Kang said indifferently.
The woman smiled naively: "Yes...a little bit! Didn't I say, Lao Xiao, your family's conditions are really bad, otherwise your son wouldn't have gotten married earlier? Now that you have such a good opportunity, why don't you seize it quickly?"
Xiao Kang snorted coldly: "Thank you for your kindness! But I won't marry my son if he is not a lady. See you later!"
After saying that, he was about to close the door. Unexpectedly, the woman stretched out her foot to cover the door.
"Tsk! Why are you still so arrogant? Your son just earned a hundred taels of scholarship. That girl from the Zhang family is sixteen years old and is fair and chubby. I told you, Lao Xiao, don't get in trouble with your nose. I did the same. With good intentions." The woman was a little impatient.
Everyone in the neighborhood doesn't know that you, the poor dog of the Xiao family, can't stand it. You work outside, and you still act like a scholar all day long. Your son can't even get a wife, and now you are still pushing back and forth.
When Xiao Kang heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he said sternly: "One hundred taels is nothing! My son is a college student! Next time, don't come without the introduction of our ladies!"
After that, there was a loud bang and the door was closed.
