The enrollnt of Lu Tianzhi and Xibao hasn’t diminished the popularity and liveliness of the Lu Family because Lu’s father has kept great-grandson Lu Chen and Guan Xu behind.
Lu Tianjun has a heavy workload and is often away from ho. Now that Jiang Xiaoyue has been admitted to a university in the Southeast Region, Lu’s father worries they won’t be able to properly care for Lu Chen. After discussing it with Feng Qingxue, he volunteered to personally raise his great-grandson.
Jiang Xiaoyue and Lu Tianjun, who were at a loss about how to take care of their son, couldn’t be happier with this arrangent. After the end of their family leave, they packed their bags and joyfully left the Capital.
The couple is busy, and so are Guan Cheng and Zhong Wenxiu.
Guan Cheng successfully got into the Departnt of Physics at another university in the Capital, with a scholarship. Although Zhong Wenxiu had good grades, she wasn’t as lucky and didn’t get into her desired teacher training college. Instead, she was assigned to a dical college.
Of course, teacher training and dical fields are among the specializations currently prioritized by the nation.
Upon receiving this good news, Lu’s father decided to keep Guan Xu as well to play with Lu Chen, a decision easily justified since the two children are similar in age and can keep each other company.
Actually, once her children settled into their lives, Feng Qingxue didn’t worry much about them anymore. But isn’t this a particularly trying ti for them? Balancing studies, work, and children isn’t sothing ordinary people can manage.
Fortunately, Lu Chen and Guan Xu are beyond the toddler stage, each with their own charms, especially Guan Xu, who is shyer than most children. With a nanny and service staff at ho, laundry and cooking aren’t troubleso, and a few older children can help with care, making it manageable.
Jiang Yun lives nearby and often takes the two children to his place when free. His house frequently gathers so retired senior officials who chat about various topics, and Lu’s father and Cheng Baoguo, invited by Jiang Yun, also blend in seamlessly.
With all things on the right track, aside from their work, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue focus their attention on the "Soaring Eagle" scholarship plan.
With hundreds of thousands of yuan involved, entrusted to Xibao, they still can’t help but be concerned.
Xibao lived up to expectations, executing the plan thodically.
He first consulted the old leaders of the Ministry of Education about this scholarship sche, then opened a dedicated bank account for the scholarship funds, storing the money there, and asked Lu Jiang to help find a few veterans to conduct an investigation in Huaibei City.
The scholarship plan starts from Huaibei City, where Zhao Anbang has been a great help—at least Xibao doesn’t need to worry about collecting data on impoverished students across the city, nor about fake quotas.
One shouldn’t forget their roots, and Xibao pays special attention to the impoverished students in the Wanglou Brigade.
Although Wanglou Brigade is generally well-off, "generally" isn’t "all." There are still a few impoverished households, so due to laziness and indulgence, others burdened by the old, weak, sick, and disabled, living very tough lives.
For the children from such families, even a hint of intelligence makes them more eager than the average impoverished child to escape their current plight.
In these tis when the nation emphasizes knowledge, everyone understands that the only way out for rural children is to receive a good education, graduate, and have the state assign jobs, transitioning to consuming comrcially sourced food.
Xibao is willing to give them this opportunity and won’t exclude them from the scholarship plan because of their parents’ or family mbers’ circumstances.
As a result, the whole Wanglou Brigade has twelve primary and secondary school students receiving aid, nine of whom are girls.
Families who are lazy and indulge in gender bias feel they have gained advantages, while those burdened by the old, weak, sick, and disabled are imnsely grateful to Xibao, seizing this only opportunity tightly.
