The free activity lasted for two hours. After the activity, all the students were gathered in a big square. They were lined up with the classes that had been decided by drawing lots, waiting for the final assessment.
The 100 kinds of leaves collected by the large group of Lola were summarized through the early integration of the summary. The monitor of class eight led them to the stage for assessment. In the end, collection of Lola’s group obtained the recognition of the school, and they sorted out the information they had collected and put it into the electronic library of the school for study and reference.
However, models of Ethan’s group were not good enough. They were not only criticized by the whole school, but also defeated by the other class members who made the models. Standing in the queue, Vana felt that everyone was complaining. She rubbed Ethan’s head pitifully and told him not to take it seriously.
Soon after, the last parent-child game began. Each class needed to invite five students and their parents to have a guess, and guess the answer related to plants and the Double Ninth Festival. The winner would have a corresponding prize.
“Ethan, take a good look at the Lego on the stage. The Lego on the stage is what Lola wants. If you really like her, you have to help her get it, okay?” Vana solemnly handed over the task to Ethan.
Ethan said with hesitation, “But aunt, will Lola accept it if I win Lego and give it to her?”
“Of course, that shows you attach great importance to her. But if you want something, I can ask Lola to help you.”
Ethan shook his head and said, “I wanted to win the bear and give it to Lola. I thought girls would like it, but she is really different from others. What she likes is so testing people’s intelligence. Alas, it seems that I can’t compete with her at all.”
Vana rubbed his head and said gently, “it’s enough as long as you like her. Don’t think too much. Believe me. I’m your helper.”
Ethan nodded heavily, and then the two of them joined the parent-child game. And Vana also went to the stage to join the guessing competition with Lola.
In the past, there were too many students and their parents, and they were all divided into groups. Many parents were eliminated in the early stage, and the rest were getting fewer and fewer. However, the team of Vana and Lola was supported by the strong brain of Lola until now, and on the contrary, Vana did not answer a question.
Half an hour had passed silently, and there were no more than ten people left. As the host came up with a group of riddles about plants, fewer and fewer people could guess them out. At last, there were only four groups of parent-child groups left on the stage.
Among them, there were the parent-child groups of Simon and Ethan, and Vana and Lola.
In the remaining two groups, one group was the official family following Simon before that Vana had met with, and the other group was a very arrogant boy and his father’s group. Vana and Lola were the only two women on the stage, and they were also the focus of everyone.
At this time, the audience began to talk about it. Some said that Vana was beautiful, some said that Lola was a talented young girl in the school, and many were boasting that Ethan was going to lose to Lola again. Some even praised the incredible appearance of Simon, and some students said that they were going to marry Simon, which made Vana feel very sad.
It seemed that she had to be on guard against high school students and college students in the future. After all, they were younger than her.
At this time, the host on the stage began to speak again. His high pitched voice sounded, “then the game is about to enter a tense period. We only have three awards, but four groups of families have entered the final, and four groups of families will be ranked in order to distribute the awards. The first prize is the three sets of learning equipment, which are learning machine, learning watch and learning smart pen. The prize for the second prize was a limited edition Lego large set box which is used to develop brain power, and the prize for the third prize was a smart voice talk toy bear. In fact, the prizes of the three groups are all very surprising. I think each of them is very meaningful. What do you think?”
With the shouts, the host announced that the final round of the game guess got started.
“The answer to the riddle I’m talking about is about plants. Parents who know the answer should write it on the answer board. Then please listen to the riddle: a three year old child dressed in green, swaying on the water and playing. Officials are always with me. A king can’t get the throne without me. What is the answer to the riddle?”
The host pretended to be relaxed, walked to Vana and handed the microphone to her. The host asked, “In this group, it is the daughter who is answering the question, so I’ll ask this lady. What do you think the answer to this riddle is?”
Vanas blushed and coughed two times. “I… I don’t know.”
Obviously, Vana’s answer was within the expectation of the host, but the host still said regretfully, “it doesn’t matter. In fact, it’s not difficult to guess. Then let me give all of you a hint. Let’s guess together, okay? This plant is a kind of food we usually eat!”
“Food?”
“Really? I thought it was a lotus leaf.”
“Teacher, is it a plant on the water?”
As the people under the stage answered the host’s questions one after another, Vana heard the official next to her shrugged his shoulders and said, “Baby, Dad seems to have guessed wrong. The teacher said it was food, but I wrote the name of a tree.”
The child complained to the official, “Dad, I just said it was rice, but you wrote the answer without listening to my answer. Now, our group is going to be eliminated.”
The official comforted the child, “good boy, I want to tell you to stick to your own ideas. You see, you did a good job, which means that you has gained something, right? Let’s go. If we make a mistake, there will be a chance in the future. I will definitely listen to your opinions in the future, okay?”
In the end, the official took his child downstairs. Before leaving, he smiled friendly at Simon and Vana. Vana thought his way of educating children was good, and thought this person was reliable.
At the moment when the answer was revealed, the answer just as the child had said that it was rice, and both of Lola and Ethan had answered right.
“Wow, it’s so fierce. There are three families who have answered the riddle correctly this time. They are family of Lola, family of Luther and family of Ethan. Let’s applauds to encourage them.”
After a round of applause, the host continued, “The answer this time is a little difficult. Then here is the riddle. It is flower but it is not flower, I don’t see it in the garden, and the fields are all covered with it. The groups could be ranked since this riddle, so the following questions will be a little difficult. Everyone, please be careful.”
As soon as the host’s voice fell, Luther Zhu, who stood proudly, shook his father’s hand and said, “Dad, you must help me answer this question correctly, so that I can make friends with Lola, okay?”
Luther Zhu’s father was dressed in dark casual clothes, and his tall and straight figure was very eye-catching on the stage. When Vana looked at Luther Zhu, he and his father were also looking at Lola and her. Seeing that Luther Zhu’s father smiled at her and then pointed at his son and then Lola beside Vana, Vana didn’t understand what he meant. But the host said they couldn’t pass on the message with others, so she couldn’t go over and ask him what he was saying.
