Chapter 702: Chapter 702 Can Infuriate a Person
As a language arts teacher, she was very familiar with this essay; she even used it as a model to explain to her students.
Jiang Mianmian’s essay had been read by the Su family as well, since Su Wanting, the language arts teacher, had highly recommended it.
They could never have imagined that Su Wanyu’s daughter was the renowned Little Prodigy; it was truly astonishing.
“Yes, big sister, oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, my daughter’s name is Jiang Mianmian. Here, this is a photo of my girl. Don’t you think she’s as pretty as my wife?” Jiang Changhai said as he pulled Mianmian’s photograph from his shirt pocket, asking with excitement.
“You have a photo? Let me see,” Aunt Su hastily took the photo, looking at it together with Big Uncle Su.
Big Uncle Su said happily, “Ah, it really is that Little Prodigy who was in the paper. Wanyu, you and your husband have raised this child so well. She will definitely achieve great things in the future. Your parents would be proud of her too.”
“Yes, you two have done a very good job raising her,” Su Mingli also praised.
Su Wanting’s husband joined the others in their compliments.
As soon as Jiang Changhai heard all these compliments about his daughter, he continued, not contented with the praise, “Uncle, Auntie, you might not know this, but when my daughter started school, she went directly into fourth grade. The curriculum for first to third grade was just too easy for her; she felt it was a waste of time, so she skipped grades. And my daughter is only ten years old this year. This term she’s skipping another grade, and she will start junior high when school begins.”
“Really? Is the child that intelligent? She’s only ten and going to start junior high?” Big Uncle Su asked in amazement.
“Yes, this skipping grades was all her own request. Her mother and I asked her if she felt tired and could keep up. Guess what she said?” Jiang Changhai teased, holding back the answer.
“What did she say?” Big Uncle Jiang and Auntie Jiang asked curiously.
“She said she had already self-studied the entire eighth-grade curriculum and didn’t want to waste time, so she wanted to go straight to ninth grade. That way, she could start high school a year earlier and learn more knowledge. Ah, my daughter, she’s just too outstanding, too ambitious,” Jiang Changhai boasted subtly.
He felt that since his daughter was beautiful, academically brilliant, and sensible, there was no reason for the Su family not to like her.
Indeed, as soon as the Su family members heard about Jiang Mianmian’s excellence, the words of praise flowed out as if they cost nothing.
“Mianmian is truly outstanding. With her skipping grades , she will probably be only fifteen or sixteen when she starts university. She might be the youngest college student by then,” Big Uncle Su said cheerfully.
“Isn’t that so? Such a young age, and she has already been in the papers. When she grows up, she will be incredible,” Aunt Su remarked with emotion.
Everyone in the Su family was lavish in their praise for Jiang Mianmian, except for Su Wanting, who was full of sullenness, always striving to compete with Su Wanyu.
Why couldn’t she outdo Su Wanyu, and why couldn’t her two children compare to hers?
Jiang Changhai and Su Wanyu were both extremely happy with their relatives’ praise for their child.
Jiang Changhai was even more proud, puffing out his chest, and said with a satisfied air, “Uncle, Auntie, big brother, brother-in-law, you’re absolutely right. My daughter has been smart since she was a little girl, she loves to study, and she’s diligent. She’s always known to help out with the chores at home, this she takes after my wife.” Thɪs chapter is updated by n0velfire.net
