"Ah, we really envy you, Mianmian, every time you take an exam you make money for the family. Look at our kids, they're so scared of exams they don't even dare to go to school. They just can't compare."
Villagers sighed over their own children's lack of ambition and aversion to studying, envious of Jiang Mianmian's prospects, and the way she brought honor to her family.
The family of three listened to the flowery praise for a while, contentedly, then continued cycling towards the Jiang family home.
By the time they arrived, the Jiang family members were just about to have dinner.
Zhang Guihua saw Jiang Mianmian returning home and was overjoyed. She came out to greet her with a smile on her face,
"Oh my, my precious granddaughter, you're finally back. Grandma has missed you to death." Zhang Guihua grabbed Jiang Mianmian's hand and wouldn't let go, her tone incredibly warm.
Jiang Dashan also stood behind the old lady, looking at Jiang Mianmian with affectionate eyes.
