NOVEL NEXT Chapter 39
Chapter 39 Firecrackers, Warm Welcome
For Chen Yu, the day of receiving the report card seemed particularly long.
He thought that after leaving school and returning home, he would be able to gain peace, but the reality told him that he was still too young and too naive.
Other friends in the village also participated in this year’s college entrance examination, and after receiving the transcripts, they returned to the village earlier than Chen Yu, and they have already spread the news in Chenjiaba that Chen Yu became the number one scholar of liberal arts in Yangzhou this year.
Not only that, but there are also reporters who came by car. They have come to Chenjiaba one step ahead of Chen Yu, and came to Chen Yu’s house to interview Chen Yu’s grandmother, the next door neighbor, the village chief and others.
These reporters tried to learn more about Chen Yu from these populations.
For example: Was he smart when he was a child?
For example: How was his academic performance since he was a child? Do you occasionally get good grades?
For example: What time does he go to bed at home at night? Does he seem to be working very hard when he is at home?
and many more.
Of course, these Chen Yu didn’t know it before entering the village.
He only knew that when he entered the village, he saw many villagers gathered at the entrance of the village from a distance, men, women and children, and he was still 20 to 30 meters away from the entrance of the village, when he heard the village chief shout: “People are coming, let them go. Let it go!!”
Chen Yu didn’t understand what was going on, when he saw the crackling firecrackers exploded at the entrance of the village, followed by a thumping thunder that shot straight into the sky, banging in mid-air.
Not only that, but he also saw those people gathered at the entrance of the village, all of them looked at him with smiles on their faces and applauded vigorously.
Amidst the noise, the village chief shouted loudly: “Xiaoyu!! Great job! We have all heard that you passed our Yangzhou number one this year! You kid gave us Chenjiaba a face! Great job!! Enthusiastic! Welcome our champion home, back home with honor!! Haha…”
“Ha ha……”
Many villagers also laughed.
Chen Yu: “???”
What is Glory to the Hometown?
Although my language learning is average, I also know that “returning to my hometown” is not used like this, right? When did I go to other places for many years and only come back to my hometown today?
I still had breakfast at home this morning! I just went to school and got my report card back.
Chen Yu has seen the crowd around the entrance of the village, and there are cameras shooting the villagers and him Chen Yu.
Hemp egg! This matter is getting bigger and bigger. If my cheating in the college entrance examination is exposed, how can I end it?
Will there be a face to meet in the future?
At this moment, he wanted to turn around and run.
He really didn’t want to be in such a limelight, but unfortunately, he also knew in his heart that he had escaped the monk, and he couldn’t escape the temple.
His home was found by reporters, where else could he escape?
There is no way, the reporter who got the top spot in the exam and provoked it will have to bite the bullet and continue the scene, even if he wants to cry, he has to swallow the tears in his stomach.
Chen Yu tried his best to keep a stiff smile on his face, and after the firecrackers and thunderbolts were all over, he bravely rode into the village. Facing the reporters’ cameras and cameras, and the happy and relieved eyes of the villagers, he felt extremely guilty, and at the same time, he was also very puzzled, because as far as he knew, the total score of Yangzhou’s liberal arts college entrance examination in previous years was generally above 700 points. .
And he has deliberately controlled his score this year, allowing himself to only get a total score of 667.
He originally thought that he would only win the first scholar in the liberal arts of Huizhou Prefecture at most this year, and he could not even get it.
Every time he thinks about this, Chen Yu feels his heart throbbing, and he really can’t handle it.
Surrounded by a bunch of reporters and villagers, Chen Yu returned to the door of his house. From a distance, he saw his grandmother, smiling and smiling, standing at the door of the courtyard and talking to the villagers next to her.
Not long after Chen Yu got home, his father Chen Guangguang and his mother Huang Suying also received news that they had returned.
The couple also looked happy. Facing the congratulations from the villagers, they both responded beamingly. Facing the interviews of reporters, they also actively cooperated.
Shuttle in the main room, pouring tea and water for everyone, the muscles on his face have froze from laughing, but his smile is not from the heart, it is a forced smile.
He heard Dad answer the reporter’s question like this:
“That’s right! My Xiaoyu has been smart since he was a child. He’s very smart. He’s very much like me!”
“That’s right! That’s right! My Xiaoyu does read books and doesn’t sleep late every night. Let me tell you, I often drive back at night, it’s one or two in the morning, and I see the lights in my Xiaoyu’s room still on. When it was on, I was very angry at that time, thinking that this kid has such a poor academic performance, and he doesn’t sleep so late at night, isn’t that a waste of electricity?”
“Yes! Yes! Every time I saw him, I knocked on his door and ordered him to sleep quickly! How did I know that kid was really studying? I thought he was reading a book or playing with his mobile phone in the room!”
Hearing this, Chen Yu couldn’t help but glanced at the eloquent and beaming dad, and secretly said: Dad, take it easy! Don’t be too hard on yourself, if things are exposed, and then there will be shameless people, I won’t be the only one.
A moment later, Chen Yu heard her mother answer a reporter’s question again.
“Yes! Yes! If it weren’t for the results of the college entrance examination this time, I really don’t know that my family’s Xiaoyu has not done well in the exam for so many years. He deliberately failed the exam.”
“Uh, this question, um… Now think about it, this child has indeed had a lot of anomalies over the years, such as?
For example, he calculates accounts very fast, and he does all mental calculations. If I have any accounts that I can’t calculate, I ask him to help me with the calculations, and he will answer them right away! Yes, it’s really great. ”
have to! Mom blew me too.
Chen Yu sighed inwardly, holding the boiling water bottle in his hand, ready to go to the kitchen to boil some boiling water, not wanting to stay in the main room and listen to his mother blow him once.
but……
The female reporter, who had just learned from his mother that he was very good at mental arithmetic, suddenly trotted to him, poked the microphone to his mouth, and said very fast: “Chen Yu, Chen Yu! Just now your mother said you Mental arithmetic is very powerful, can you show it to us now? It’s a very simple question, what is 272 times 373? Can you answer it in one sentence?”
Chen Yu squinted at her, the stiff smile on his face couldn’t be sustained.
Then, his speechless eyes glanced at his mother not far away.
This is really only a mother in the world!
You say that you can help me blow a few words in front of the reporters. The question is what is wrong with you? You have to tell reporters that my mental arithmetic is particularly powerful?
Are you kidding your son?
You don’t know the mental arithmetic, can you verify it on the spot?
Chen Yu, who was cornered by the wall, could only pretend to be very unhappy and darken his face, squinting at the female reporter in front of him, and said in a deep voice, “Have you heard of real martial arts, only actual combat, not performance? ? Studying is the same! Thank you! Please let me go!”
