Jiang Dashan, who had been silent and sparing with words, also furrowed his brows, but still did not speak.

Jiang Changhai dug at his ears, with an air of taking it for granted, "If Zhiwen and Zhiwu can go to school, then Mianmian can too."

His daughter was far smarter than his two nephews who only knew how to cause mischief!

Upon hearing this, Laosan's Wife imdiately jumped in, "Older brother, Zhiwen and Zhiwu are the ones to carry on the Old Jiang Family's lineage!"

A loss-maker, how could she compare to her son's preciousness!

Jiang Changhai declared confidently, "Our Mianmian is also to carry on the Old Jiang Family's lineage.".

"I think you're full and have nothing better to do but co up with foolish ideas! What book should a girl study? We don't have that kind of spare money in our family," Zhang Guihua sprayed him with words.

The annual tuition and miscellaneous fees for the commune primary school amounted to two yuan, and now a work point was only worth three fen, so a year's tuition was the inco of an ordinary laborer for half a month.

Although life now was much better than a few years ago, every household still had no surplus grain.

Apart from a few families, no one was willing to spend money on sending their daughters to school.

With that money, it was better to buy sothing tasty for the grandson!

Moreover, having painstakingly raised a daughter for over a decade, as parents, if they didn't put her to good use before she married off, later all the benefits would go to her in-laws.

Jiang Changhai wiped the spittle from his face, and with his legs crossed in an unruly manner, he retorted, "If we don't have spare money, then Zhiwen and Zhiwu shouldn't go to school either. Just work in the fields at ho."

Luckily he was handso, even making such expressions and gestures didn't seem low-class. Otherwise, he'd probably have been kicked out by his parents long ago.

"No way, Zhiwen and Zhiwu are going to the city to beco workers in the future!" Laosan's Wife beca anxious upon hearing that.

After all, the eldest was a rascal and troublemaker; he might actually stop his nephews from going to school.

The two brothers mumbled in agreent, "Right! We won't be country bumpkins; we're going to the city for rationed commodity grains!"

And besides, reading was so fun, they could skip classes every day to climb trees and steal bird eggs outside.

Jiang Changtao, Laosan, couldn't sit still any longer and quickly spoke up to diate, "Mom, Sanya is still young, let her work in the fields in a few years. Big brother, the commune primary school is so far from our village, and with Sanya being little and slow, it will take almost two hours to get there."

Jiang Mianmian silently nodded in agreent in her heart, thinking about how good it was for everyone to be happy.

Hearing her thoughts, the Scholar Tyrant System: Already regretting having chosen the difficult mode of transforming an academic failure into a top student.

Being a slacker was one thing, but being too lazy to improve was another.

Jiang Changhai, however, waved his hand nonchalantly, "You don't need to worry about that; I will take Mianmian to school and back every day."

Wild boars from the mountains occasionally ca down to look for food, and he didn't want his precious daughter to be hard by them.

The rest of the Old Jiang family, however, thought he had gone mad!

Even if the eldest could cover the distance quickly, it would still take at least an hour each way, amounting to almost three hours for a round trip in a day.

Just to send his daughter to school? People might not believe it if they told them!

Hearing this, Jiang Dashan finally spoke up, "Eldest brother, Sanya is just not ant for studying; even if we sent her to school, she wouldn't be able to keep up."

Laosan's Wife imdiately said excitedly, "That's right, that's right. When the village was doing literacy classes, Sanya took two months to learn addition and subtraction within twenty. The educated youth in the village said they had never seen such a slow child!"

She was so agitated that she spoke without thinking.

Jiang Mianmian: ...
