Chapter 609: Chapter 609: Elder Yu’s Two Pieces of Good News 1
She was now truly a Little Genius. Jiang Mianmian looked at her intelligence value, excited beyond measure.
The system, seeing how happy she was, feared she would be satisfied with just that and hurriedly reminded her, “Host, first of all, congratulations on your intelligence value reaching near-genius levels. I hope you keep up the good work and continue to strive, not indulging in past achievements and stopping here. Remember, learning is like rowing upstream; not advancing is retreating. There are many out there smarter than you.”
“Oh, system, rest assured, I will definitely continue to work hard.” Jiang Mianmian, with her feet curled up, still looked incredibly adorable.
Hehe, she was a genius now!
When it came time to eat, Su Wanyu noticed her daughter was unusually happy today and curiously asked, “Girl, why are you in such a good mood today?”
“Eh? Am I?” Jiang Mianmian touched her own mouth corners, not having noticed it herself.
“Nonsense, you’ve been smiling foolishly for a long time.” Su Wanyu’s eyebrows arched up lightly, “What’s the happy news? Tell us, so your dad and I can have a laugh too.”
“Ahem, it’s nothing exciting, just that school is starting soon. I’ve been missing my classmates and teachers,” Jiang Mianmian made up an excuse on the fly.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to share the good news of becoming a genius with her parents; it was just that the system was something she couldn’t discuss with them.
Jiang Changhai and Su Wanyu, both academic underachievers, were stunned by this excuse.
The couple exchanged a look, both deeply admiring their daughter. Indeed, a genius was different from ordinary people; she was actually looking forward to school starting.
When they were in school, they had always looked forward to holidays, and if the holidays were ending and school was about to start, they would literally feel heartbroken.
“Ha ha, that really is something to be happy about.” Su Wanyu put on a radiant, albeit fake, smile on the spot.
Of course, it was still beautiful.
Jiang Changhai was more earnest, “My daughter’s state of mind is truly exceptional. Look at the daughter I raised; she is simply amazing. Just yesterday, I saw that boy Wang Li complaining about not wanting to go to school.”
After saying that, he sported a “not wanting to go to school is unacceptable” expression.
While the family was talking and laughing, the home phone suddenly rang.
Jiang Mianmian hurried over to answer the call.
“Hello, this is Jiang Changhai’s home, may I ask who’s calling?” Jiang Mianmian asked as she picked up the phone.
“Mianmian, it’s your Grandpa Yu.” Elder Yu’s robust voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Grandpa Yu, hello, how have you been lately?” Jiang Mianmian asked with concern.
Jiang Changhai and Su Wanyu, hearing that it was Elder Yu on the phone, quickly sat down beside Jiang Mianmian, leaning in and listening attentively to the voice from the phone.
Elder Yu said, “I’m quite well, Mianmian, no need to worry about me. Mianmian, Grandpa Yu has two pieces of good news to tell you.”
Jiang Mianmian, curious, asked, “What is the good news, Grandpa Yu?”
She knew that when Elder Yu mentioned good news, it had to be something very significant.
If it were trivial matters, Elder Yu wouldn’t bother calling personally.
Elder Yu explained, “Based on the manufacturing principles you discussed with the researchers last time, our country’s color TVs have officially gone into production. By next month at the latest, they’ll start being sold in bulk. The related technology is also being applied in other areas.”
“That’s wonderful.” Jiang Mianmian was very pleased to hear this; she suddenly felt a deep sense of satisfaction in having contributed to her country.
