Yi Zhonghai and his wife touched their daughter's head excitedly and said, "My daughter is so smart."

Yi Zhonghai pulled his daughter up and took the test paper and walked home happily and slowly. When he saw an acquaintance, Yi Zhonghai took out the test paper to show off.

The journey should have taken them more than ten minutes, but because of the father and daughter dragging them, it took them more than half an hour to get home.

When they walked to the gate of the courtyard, they met Sha Zhu who was coming back from cooking. Sha Zhu greeted them and asked, "Uncle, have you eaten?"

Yi Zhonghai picked up the test paper and unfolded it, saying, "What? Silly Zhu, are you asking my Tuanzi how many points he got in the test this time?"

"It's not that many points, just five points more than the full score."

Sha Zhu was so amused by the old man that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Alright, alright, I know your Tuanzi got more than full marks in the exam! Then how about celebrating today and treating us?"

Yi Zhonghai said firmly: "Please, of course you will! Come tonight, call the third uncle and the second uncle and the others! I am so happy about this matter today, how can I not drink two liang of wine?"

"Okay, this is what you call an uncle. Wait a minute, I won't cook dinner tonight, I'll just wait to eat at your house."

"Zhu Zi, Tuan Zi is your sister, why don't you show off some of your skills?"

Sha Zhu bowed and smiled, "Come on, uncle, when the time comes, you can ask auntie to prepare the dishes and I will cook them."

Only then did Yi Zhonghai smile with satisfaction.

Sha Zhu looked at his sister-in-law again and asked, "Lin Xiong, how many points did you get in the test today?"

Lin Xiong scored above 90 points in both subjects, so he showed the test paper to his brother-in-law directly.

When Sha Zhu looked at the test paper, he found that both subjects scored above 90. He happily touched his sister-in-law's head and said, "Not bad, you did really well. You are worthy of being my sister-in-law. Go home and let your sister see it too, to make her happy."

Lin Xiong nodded happily.

Sha Zhu said to Yi Zhonghai: "Uncle, both of these children did so well in the exam. I will ask Yingzi to buy some meat and add a few more dishes to celebrate for both children."

Yi Zhonghai nodded: "Okay."

Auntie: "Bring Mr. Huo's family with you. He got 100 points in the exam today! They are all good kids."

Yi Zhonghai looked around in confusion: "Where is Mr. Huo? He was here just now!"

The aunt rolled her eyes at Yi Zhonghai and said, "I have to go back to tell my grandfather the good news first, and then have lunch! Why am I standing here watching you two chatting?"

"Okay, Zhuzi, stop chatting with your uncle. Take Lin Xiong home for lunch!"

The lady pulled Yi Jiale over and said, "Your dad is not hungry, but we are all hungry. We, mother and daughter, will go home first and leave your dad alone."

Yi Zhonghai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only wave to Sha Zhu and chase after the mother and daughter.

At the dinner table, Yi Jiale ate a big white steamed bun and said, "Mom and Dad, we are going to have a parents' meeting this Friday."

"Which one of you will go?"

Yi Zhonghai and the aunt looked at each other, their eyes sparkling with anticipation and excitement. After all, their daughter got first place in the grade! This was something to be proud of! Going to the parents' meeting was simply a glory for them.

An aunt spoke first: "Mr. Yi, you still have to go to work on Friday, so I'll go." She felt that her husband was busy at work and his work should not be affected by attending the parent-teacher meeting.

However, Yi Zhonghai retorted without hesitation: "Cuiyun, I can take a leave in advance that day." He firmly stated that he would attend the parent-teacher meeting in person to witness his daughter's glorious moment.

Yi Jiale looked at his parents arguing and said helplessly, "Then mom and dad should go together."

"It's just a small matter. I can just go to the teacher's office and borrow a stool when the time comes."

The couple nodded in satisfaction.

Huo Sheng's family:

Mr. Huo happily handed the test paper to his grandfather. Grandpa Huo took two test papers with full marks. Although he had never been to school, he had attended literacy classes before and could still understand simple scores. Seeing that his grandson skipped a grade and still scored 100 points again, Grandpa Huo felt extremely relieved.

Grandpa Huo touched Huo Sheng's head lovingly and said, "Son, are you tired of getting full marks on the test?"

Huo Sheng held up his little head, his eyes sparkling as he said, "Studying is not tiring at all. Grandpa is tiring when he sweeps the streets."

"Grandpa, when I grow up, I will buy you a big house so that you don't have to sweep the streets anymore. It's so hard."

Grandpa Huo looked at his sensible and filial grandson and suddenly burst into tears. "If one of your parents were still alive, my grandson wouldn't be so tired. He would have to follow a useless old man like me and suffer every day."

Huo Sheng panicked when he saw his grandfather crying. He hugged his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, don't cry. I'm not suffering at all! Home is where grandpa is."

Grandpa Huo touched Huo Sheng's head and said, "Shengzi, eat! After dinner, take a nap, and then you have to go to school again."

While eating a steamed bun made of mixed grains, Huo Sheng also said to Grandpa Huo: "There will be a parents' meeting on Friday, Grandpa, can you take a leave?"

Grandpa Huo smiled and said, "Okay, my good grandson got full marks on the test, so I have to ask for leave."

On the way to school, Yi Jiale invited Mr. Huo and Grandpa Huo to her house for dinner in the evening to celebrate the fact that the three of them had done well in the exam.

Huo Sheng lowered his head and didn't want to eat and drink for free. His grandfather had taught him not to always go to other people's homes to eat and drink for free, because other people's food did not come from the wind.

However, looking at Yi Jiale's happy and expectant smile, Huo Sheng felt very embarrassed.

Yi Jiale noticed the embarrassment on Huo Sheng's face and advised: "Why are you being so polite to me? I am your aunt! Although you have never called me aunt."

Mr. Huo… scratched his head and said nothing. He couldn’t find any words to refute for a while.

After thinking for a while, he said, "So, except when you call me Sister Lin Xiong in front of adults, you always call me Lin Xiong by my name?"

When Lin Xiong heard this, he covered his mouth and smiled.

This time it was Yi Jiale's turn to be speechless. He had to call her "sister" in front of the adults, as his mother was talking about him again. However, his mental age was over 20 years old. He felt really uncomfortable calling a little girl of seven or eight years old "sister".

"Okay! If you don't want to shout, then don't shout! We are all about the same age anyway, so you can shout whatever you want."

"But Mr. Huo, you have to bring your grandfather over for dinner!"

Huo Sheng kicked the stone at his feet and said helplessly: "Last time my grandfather and I went to your house for dinner, we were already embarrassed. This time my grandfather will definitely not agree."

Yi Jiale said angrily, "You are so stupid! This meal is to celebrate the three of us doing well in the exam. You told your grandfather that it was to celebrate the three of us doing well in the exam, so we are having a meal together to celebrate. Wouldn't your grandfather be willing to go?"

Huo Sheng: "I'll tell my grandfather after school! But if my grandfather still doesn't want to, then forget it."

Yi Jiale nodded: "Okay! Waiting for your news."
