Zheng Juzi rolled her eyes at him and let him figure it out for himself - if you want to fight for it, you have to rely on your own ability. What's the point of using these shady means?

But she didn't expect that Principal Liao would look for her.

"I've looked at your test paper." Principal Liao didn't know how to comment, so he went straight to the point.

Zheng Juzi nodded.

"He got full marks in other subjects, but he didn't finish the math test." This was the first time their school had recruited the top student in the county, so Principal Liao was naturally concerned.

After all, the students who were watching the fun saw the scores and rankings, and Principal Liao also looked at her test paper.

For some reason, Zheng Juzi felt a little guilty.

"Don't you want to participate in the county math competition?" She got all the answers right on the math test, and Principal Liao didn't think her ability was above the tenth place.

Zheng Juzi nodded obediently.

"Why? Do you know what the reward for the first place in this competition is?" Principal Liao felt a little disappointed. What a good opportunity! Wasn't it missed in vain?

Zheng Juzi answered irrelevantly: "I just want to go to school with my sister, in a school close to home."

He used to think it was funny when she used this reason to fool people from No. 1 Middle School, but now he feels like laughing but can’t - is this kid’s brain just not flexible?

"You don't want to try?"

"Many people want this opportunity. Opportunities are rare, so naturally we should let those who want to try their best to participate." Zheng Juzi's idea is very direct.

She just wants the part that she wants, and she wants it all. Even if she gets it all, she will still be tired.

Since they don't want it, it would be fair to give it to those who want it.

After all, the junior class is looking for talented players, and she is just a test-taker who has the first-mover advantage because she has studied a few more years.

Of course, she would not confront the principal, so she just said, "President Liao, I want to go to Peking University or Tsinghua University."

Hearing this, Principal Liao smiled and said, "Okay, let's do this."

He told Zheng Hanqiu what the reward for first place in the competition was. Originally, he wanted to motivate the two sisters to compete with each other, but in the end, the two sisters gave up because of competing with each other.

"Just don't feel sorry for yourself."

"I have no regrets." Zheng Juzi was sure.

When he returned, Zheng Guixiang was sorry to learn that neither of his two daughters ranked first.

"You guys..." The most direct consequence of poor grades was to shake his trust in the fortune teller, "Did you not perform well in the exam?"

"Not really." Zheng Juzi did not hide it and told the real reason.

Zheng Guixiang... Although I like you not to cheat me, can you tell me before making a decision? "Well, that's an opportunity to be recommended to college, and you guys just gave it up so easily?"

"It's not certain that you can be recommended." Zheng Juzi explained patiently, "The top student in the county can only go to No. 8 Middle School. We have to wait until the third-year junior high school exam to confirm whether we can be recommended. Even if we can, we can only go to one school. I don't want to be separated from my sister."

"He's a college student at that." Zheng Guixiang thinks that children still need more guidance, otherwise they will mess up if they are left to themselves.

"No." Zheng Juzi could only continue to explain, "First, it is only a qualification for admission to a city middle school. It is not certain whether you can pass the exam."

Zheng Guixiang still felt that it was inappropriate, and it would be good to have a chance.

Zheng Hanqiu concluded with one sentence, "Dad, we have never been apart. If I were to enjoy happiness at home while my sister went to suffer in other places, how pitiful would she be?"

Zheng Juzi...what you said is too shameless.

Mu Xiaoyun thought it made sense. "They have been together since they were little. It's okay if she didn't pass the exam. But what if Juzi got first place? You let her go to school in another city alone without being able to take a bus. That would be too biased."

She didn’t actually think she was biased before, but Zheng Hanqiu said she was biased, so she had to lean a little towards Juzi.

(Zheng Hanqiu: Guess who I’m talking about? Ever since Zheng Juzi rolled around in the hospital, Mu Xiaoyun has been worried that this child will suffer.)

Zheng Guixiang just felt stupid: "She, she can go to Shanghai, why can't she go to the city to study?! Can't take a car? I think she can even take a plane."

Zheng Juzi blinked innocently and said aggrievedly: "Going to the Magic City to suffer is to make money for the family and let the whole family live a good life. What's the point of going to the city to suffer?"

Zheng Guixiang, who took 12 yuan from his daughter, felt guilty.

Although he spent a lot of the money on road construction, he couldn't help but think that his daughter was able to earn money at such a young age and didn't have to go to college.

Forget it. He was worried about such a young girl being alone in a foreign place. She wouldn't have many days of freedom after she got married. So she should just enjoy herself at home for now.

"Besides, the school that No. 8 Middle School recommends me to is not even among the top three in the province, and I want to get into Peking University or Tsinghua University in the future." In order to take away one pie, Zheng Juzi drew a bigger pie.

Zheng Guixiang had never heard of Peking University or Tsinghua University. In his mind, only college students were state officials, and they were different from these peasants.

When I learned that my daughter's goal was to attend the best university in the country, I suddenly felt that the old Taoist priest's prediction would definitely come true.

At this time, Zheng Feizhou came back with his shoulders drooping and his schoolbag on his back.

"What's wrong?" Mu Xiaoyun asked with concern: "Are you feeling unwell?"

Zheng Feizhou was about to cry.

"What? You didn't get first place either?" Zheng Hanqiu gloated.

Also? Zheng Feizhou became more excited and asked, "Second sister, you are not the first either?"

What does your excited expression mean? Zheng Juzi rolled her eyes at him.

Zheng Hanqiu helpfully answered for her, "Tenth grade, what about you?"

Zheng Feizhou finally felt that the world was becoming more friendly to him, and said excitedly: "I am second, but I am still better."

Then, he felt a strong murderous gaze sweeping back and forth over him, and if he said anything else he would be dead.

"Oh, you're second. You're not first. What's there to be proud of? How many points are you behind the first?" Zheng Juzi asked unhappily.

Hearing this, Zheng Feizhou felt wronged again, "We get the same."

"Then why is he number one and you number two?"

"The teacher prepared a pencil case as a reward for the first place winner. We had the same score, and the teacher said that according to international practice, we should be sorted by name. Her last name is Cai, which is C, and mine is Zheng, which is Z, so she was ranked ahead of me." Although it was very uncomfortable, what the teacher said made sense.

Zheng Feizhou asked unwillingly: "Dad, how about I change my last name to Ai or An? Then I will be the first."

Zheng Juzi...

Zheng Hanqiu...

You actually have to change your surname for such a small matter? Zheng Guixiang scolded, "Then don't you know to get two more points?!"

Zheng Feizhou had no choice. "There are only so many questions on the test paper. I can't possibly get 102 points, right?"

So it’s better to change the name.

Zheng Guixiang kept repeating to himself: It is wrong to beat children... What should I do if this child deserves a beating?
