Chapter 23 Selection

"What, did I hear it right?"

"Meng Wanqiu, it's the daughter of Secretary Meng, isn't she..."

"Shuh, keep your voice down, the secretary is up there?"

Meng Wanqiu ignored the whispers beside her, said something to Pei Xingzhi, and stood up.

"I'm going up there."

"Well, don't be nervous, just be calm, it doesn't matter if you don't get elected." Pei Xingzhi held Meng Wanqiu's hand tightly and whispered to comfort her.

"That's right, Xiaowan, don't worry." Meng Yanchun stood up and patted Meng Wanqiu on the back, but in his heart he thought that if he didn't get elected, he would go to help his sister feed the pigs, and then he would see who dared to bully his sister.

"Don't worry, I and your brother are still needed." Dong Hanyun touched Meng Wanqiu's head, and a dark light flashed in her eyes. If it really doesn't work, she will go and knock those daughters-in-law of the Zhou family. She remembers that they have been dissatisfied with Zhou Pozi for a long time.

"Come on, aunt!" Zhuangzhuang didn't understand the twists and turns here. He just thought that aunt was going to the battlefield as grandpa said, and he wanted to cheer her up.

"Don't worry." Meng Wanqiu smiled brightly. She didn't have any desire to win or lose. Since her family wanted her to get the scorer job, she would take it seriously.

Pei Xingzhi:...

It feels like her husband doesn't have much presence.

As the last Meng Wanqiu came up, the discussion in the crowd became louder.

"It's really her. Secretary Meng wouldn't let his daughter get in through the back door, would he?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? There's also a daughter of the captain's family up there. How can the captain just watch for nothing?"

"You think this little Wan from the Meng family is here to join in the fun?"

"Hey, she's been a fool for so many years and hasn't even been to school. Can she read? She's here to select scorers. Isn't this funny?"

"You can't say that. She looks like she's fine now. As for whether she can read or not, it's hard to say."

"Oh, why? I've never heard that Meng Wanqiu went to school."

"You guys... Young, she talks nonsense. How could Secretary Meng let his daughter do such a serious thing as selecting scorers? Since she dared to sign up, she must be sure. "

"That's right. Just because she didn't go to school doesn't mean she can't read. You have to know that the old lady of the Meng family was the most educated person in our Hongshan Commune. How could she let her granddaughter be illiterate?"

"Is that so?"

"I've never heard of it. No wonder the daughter of the Meng family dared to sign up."

At the same time, the other applicants on the stage began to whisper to each other after seeing Meng Wanqiu.

Jiang Xiuxiu's heart skipped a beat. Meng Wanqiu actually signed up. It seems that the Meng family didn't want her to feed pigs, so they let Meng Wanqiu choose scorers.

However, Jiang Xiuxiu raised her lips. She would not let Meng Wanqiu get what she wanted. The scorer position must be hers.

Just because Meng Wanqiu had been stupid for so many years, how could she be comparable to her, Jiang Xiuxiu? It was all in vain.
