On the day off for ten days, Song Yuanbao had to return to the town school.
Before he left, Song Wei finished writing the article for the county examination.
Song Yuanbao carefully placed it in his bag like a treasure, intending to hand it over to the teacher as soon as he arrived at the town school.
The teachers passed it around to read, and after finishing, they stroked their goatees in admiration, saying, "Truly deserving of the county's top candidate title, look at this perspective and insight, it surpasses us old folks by far. If this article were used in class, the students would surely benefit greatly!"
Hearing the tutors praise Song Wei so much, Song Yuanbao felt a sense of pride and thought that next time he returned home, he would definitely tell his father every single word the teachers said.
