"You heard right, that's exactly what the secretary said."
"So, the little girl from the Old Jiang Family just made a whole ten dollars inside and out! My goodness, that's even more than my wife makes in a month!"
"To think such a young girl has already earned ten dollars for her family and can even go to school for free. She's incredible!"
"Who would have thought Jiang Changhai, that lazybones, would have such good fortune to have such a successful daughter."
As they were speaking, the elementary school principal stepped up on stage. Besides awarding Jiang Mianmian five dollars, he also gave her a pen and a thick notebook—it was quite a generous offering.
After all, you can't catch a wolf without baiting the trap.
Sure enough, someone immediately muttered, "I've seen that pen, it's called a fountain pen. That thing's expensive; it sells for two or three dollars at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative."
