That Year

When Xiao Lingyu was admitted to the famous university in S Province as the top scholar in the county, even the country television station came to interview Mother and Father Xiao.

The local government and big companies also sent over gifts and money as presents. It made the other villagers very jealous.

However, Mother and Father Xiao rejected all the interviews and gifts. Father Xiao told the camera, "Thank you to all the officials for their kindness.

"My daughter is entering the university to start a new page of her life. Her road ahead is still very long. No one knows what will happen in the future, so it's too early to celebrate. Therefore, I can't accept the money. If I do, my kids will think I'm only making them study for money. I want to teach my daughter that studying is not for money but to better her life. She has to learn to be responsible."

The villagers thought Father Xiao was being stupid and arrogant.
