Fast travel to the front line of eating melons in the world

Xue Lei knew that Zhang Hui had taken the college entrance examination. Ever since the results came out, she had been wondering, "I wonder how Xiao Hui did on the college entrance examination."

Zhang Fu and the others were also very anxious. "Why? Xiao Hui's grades are good, she should be able to get a good score."

Everyone had confidence in Zhang Hui and thought she should do well on the exam, "but we don't know which university she will get into."

Amidst everyone's anticipation, Zhang Hui and Zhang Juan's letters finally arrived. Everyone opened Zhang Hui's letter first, and saw that she mentioned not doing well on the exam, saying she didn't know whether to continue taking the exam or wait for the opportunity to return to the city.

Zhang Fu and the others understood what Zhang Hui meant; she was simply asking if she could come back to take over the job. They hadn't really considered this question. In their eyes, Zhang Hui would definitely get good grades, so there was no need to think about taking over the job at all.

Now that I didn't do well on the test, what should I do?
Seeing that none of them seemed interested in reading Zhang Juan's letter, Zhang Qiang opened it and immediately exclaimed in surprise, "No way! Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu actually, actually scored 495 points!"

"Zhang Huicai scored 220 points, and Zhang Juan scored 215 points."

Zhang Hui had been in Northeast China for many years, and Zhang Qiang had no memory of his older sister. He only heard Zhang Gui and others mention that Zhang Hui was the best student in the family. In fact, the best student in the family scored 220 points on the college entrance exam, while Zhang Yu, who was not good at studying, scored 495 points.

Deng Jie exclaimed in surprise, "495 points! Only 5 points away from a perfect score! My God!" She hadn't taken the college entrance exam, but her family had children who did, so she knew the maximum score. She never expected Zhang Yu to be so amazing.

Zhang Fu exclaimed in surprise, "What? You mean Zhang Yu? She actually got such good grades? Are you kidding me?"

"Did Xiaohui get such good grades?" Zhang Gui also wondered if there was a mistake in the scores.

Qiao Xue had always heard them talk about how good Zhang Hui was, and she thought she really was that good. But then she got a score of 220, and her father-in-law and brother kept saying that there must be a mistake.

She had absolutely no good feelings towards this sister-in-law she had never met before. "How could I possibly mistake her for someone else? It's the college entrance exam; a lot of people are watching."

"If Zhang Hui does well on the exam, wouldn't she go to the local education bureau?"

"Besides, she herself has already said that she didn't do well on the test." Qiao Xue said irritably, "Out of a total of 500 points, she only got 220 points, not even half of that."

"I remember Zhang Juan only went to junior high school, and she still managed to score 215 points." Qiao Xue snorted a few times. "In your eyes, she's the only one who's the best."

Zhang Gui and the others listened to Qiao Xue's various complaints about Zhang Hui. Although they were angry, they didn't know how to refute her.

If Zhang Hui had gotten a good score this time, they could have stood up straight in front of Qiao Xue. But now that her score is so terrible, they really have nothing to say.

"Isn't this a great score?" Xu Ling was stunned. She had never expected her daughter, whom she had never paid much attention to, to achieve such a good result. "495 points."

Qiao Xue nodded, "Of course it's good enough. It only lost five points. I basically filled it out with my eyes closed."

"That's wonderful." Xu Ling really didn't know what to feel. Her daughter, whom she had never cared about since childhood, had become so outstanding. Before, they had said that they would not let this girl return to the city and that they would never support her.

It turns out she didn't need her family's support at all. She hasn't contacted her family in all these years, never. She got into university on her own merit, so it's easy to see that her future is bright. Sigh.

After learning that Zhang Yu had such excellent grades, Zhang Tao had a thought in his mind, but he just didn't know how to express it.

After glancing at Deng Jie and Qiao Xue, he decided to tell Zhang Fu and the others later. After all, if this matter was really feasible, it was best not to let too many people know about it.

Deng Jie was very unhappy when she learned that Zhang Tao had taken a month off to go to Northeast China. "It's already January 20th. If you go to Northeast China now, it will be Chinese New Year there."

"You, you..." Deng Jie knew that Zhang Tao treated Zhang Hui very well, but she couldn't let her stay away from home for the New Year just because of her.

“You don’t know how heartbroken Xiaohui is after such a big thing happened. I went over to comfort her.”

"Xiao Hui had really good grades when she was in school. I'll go check and see if there's a mistake."

"It just so happens that I'm going to the Northeast, so I can see what good stuff they have."

“Taking a month off will result in a deduction of pay, but if I can find some good stuff during my trip to Northeast China, I can sell it after I come back, and then the deducted pay will be recovered.”

Zhang Tao tried to comfort his wife, Deng Jie. What could he do? She had already taken leave, so he could only let her go. "When you get there, try to smooth things over with Zhang Yu. After all, she's your own sister."

Deng Jie really didn't understand. Zhang Yu was Zhang Tao's biological sister, but he rarely mentioned her. On the few occasions he did mention her, he would just frown and say how unreasonable Zhang Yu was, sending things to friends but never sending them to his home.

She even talked about how sensible Zhang Hui was, sending things home, etc. Deng Jie could only shake her head helplessly. Whether Zhang Hui was virtuous or not, she really didn't know, but she was definitely a big bloodsucker in the family, requiring the family to send twenty yuan every month.

"Get on good terms with Zhang Yu?" Zhang Tao smiled wryly upon hearing this, "We'll see."

Although they are siblings, Zhang Tao knows that there is no real sibling affection between them. He feels happier knowing that the other is not doing well.

Hearing Zhang Tao's words, Deng Jie's heart sank. It was clear he hadn't listened at all. She felt a pang of jealousy. She had said everything she needed to say, but what could she do if he wouldn't listen?

By the time Zhang Tao arrived at the place where Zhang Hui and the others had been sent to the countryside as educated youth, six days had already passed, and those six days had exhausted him considerably.

All he wants now is to have a hot meal and get some rest. He's just too tired. He understands why Zhang Hui never went back to visit her family again; the journey has been too arduous.

Zhang Yu has been really busy these past few days. It's been confirmed that she and Qian Hao are the top science students in their respective provinces, cities, and counties, and the top arts students in their respective provinces, cities, and counties. They even made it into the city newspaper, and of course, the provincial newspaper as well.

They hadn't mentioned this to anyone, since it hadn't been reported in the newspapers yet. They decided to wait until it was published before discussing it further. Moreover, even though Zhang Yu had done well on the exam, he could sense the displeasure among the other educated youth at the settlement.

The reason they didn't fall out wasn't because of their long-standing relationship, but because they had obtained the review materials prepared by Qian Hao. Of course, Zhang Yu's review materials were also contributed, and they were highly sought after. In addition, Qian Hao and Zhang Yu had promised them that they could ask them for help with anything they didn't understand before they left. (End of Chapter)
