Chapter 113: Song Ping'an...Just hope she grows up safely and peacefully.

The villagers could hardly believe their ears. Did the village head just say what they heard? Their kids outperformed the kids from the commune school?! It must be fake!

But looking at Chen Youshan, standing on the big rock with a face full of wrinkles, the villagers began to feel that this might be true. They hadn't seen the head of the village yet, and they were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.

Speaking of which, several factors contributed to this victory. The most important point was that they were competing with the first graders. Even if the first graders started half a year earlier, the additional knowledge they gained wasn't that significant.

Moreover, the number of students in the village school was smaller than that in the commune school. As long as Xu Hengzhou and the others could ensure that most of the students didn't lag and some top students could chase high scores, their chances of winning were quite high.

Of course, Xu Hengzhou and the other teachers deserved credit too. Xiang Chen almost made a student file for each student, understanding clearly what each student lacked and for what reasons.

Jiang Miao and Yuan Wei also worked hard to provide extra lessons for the students. Many times, they came back in the dark without hot meals, and they had to settle for cold ones.

The students themselves also worked hard, which led to the current results.

The villagers might not be able to analyze these detailed situations, but they knew the outcome was enough. Their village's kids had won!

Smiles were plastered on the faces of the villagers. Whether or not they had kids attending school, they were all delighted! It gave their village leader a face!

So when Chen Youshan announced that Xu Hengzhou and the other three teachers would be rewarded, the villagers readily agreed. They saw the hard work of the teachers. Even though their kids started schooling late, the teachers would leave school even later than them. They relied on the right timing for farming, but these teachers were working overtime.

Chen Youshan's rewards weren't much, just ten kilograms of rough rice per person, and they had to wait until the early rice harvest to receive it. But this was enough to warm Jiang Miao and Yuan Wei's hearts. Although Xiang Chen never worried about food and drink while following his brother, earning rewards through his efforts gave him a different sense of achievement.

This exam made Dahe Village Primary School famous!

It's unclear who maliciously spread the news about Dahe Village Primary School wanting to compete with the commune school. When Chen Youshan went to the meeting, he encountered several unfriendly village heads and brigade leaders mocking him. This time, Chen Youshan could hold his head high.

With the end of the final exam, it was time for school break. Xiang Chen thought to himself that their students were lacking in foundation, so every bit of extra learning would help. Moreover, many of the students attending school were not young; after five years of primary school, each of them was sixteen or seventeen years old, with some even reaching eighteen or nineteen. They either had to work in the fields or get married and start a family. Some probably wouldn't even finish five years of primary school.

Xiang Chen felt that some students were very smart and had a desire to study, but it was a pity that they were being wasted like this. So he proposed to his brother that they should offer extra classes during the first month of summer vacation. It wouldn't have to be full days, just half days, and those who wanted to attend could. They could learn new knowledge or review what they've learned. If there were fast learners, they could consider advancing them to the next level and aim to send them to secondary school.
