Chapter 183: Chapter 183 Sending Yue Jiannan to School Chapter 183: Chapter 183 Sending Yue Jiannan to School Spring had finally arrived, and Daye Village was once again covered in a layer of fresh greenery.
The villagers shed their thick cotton-padded jackets and started to get busy with spring plowing.
Yue Jiandong had already found a way to send Yue Jiannan to school.
It was just such a coincidence that it happened to be the sa school Yu Yaxian was attending—the No. 1 Middle School.
Yue Jiandong went out of his way to talk to his younger brother, “The director of admissions at No. 1 Middle School happens to be the brother of a business associate of mine. Now, with ti being tight, enrolling in other schools may not go as smoothly.”
Yue Jiannan, who could not appreciate his brother’s painstaking efforts more, hastily replied, “Brother, you’ve already had such a tough ti finding a connection for ; I would never be picky.”
Yue Jiandong was silent. His concern was about Yu Yaxian and that Song upperclassman being at the school, which he feared might lead to trouble.
The day before yesterday, the Yu Family had just delivered the compensation money to the Yue Family. Apparently, they had managed to gather the funds by leasing out their farmland on a long-term basis to others.
Yu Yaxian had not shown her face again, and now she didn’t even co ho during the holidays.
But if the third brother were to study at No. 1 Middle School, an encounter with her was inevitable.
Yue Jiannan promised, “That’s all in the past. Now, my mind is filled only with my studies. You can rest assured. I know this schooling ans the family must once again spend money and make an effort for , and I will definitely not seek out trouble.”
Only then did Yue Jiandong’s face light up with a smile, and he patted his brother’s shoulder, uttering sothing like “What great man lacks a wife?”
He also reminded him, “There are only four classes for the grade that requires exams at No. 1 Middle School. I’ve already checked: Yu Yaxian and Song Qiming are in the first class, which is the key class. Because you have no strong foundation, you can only start in the fourth class for now. However, most of the teaching staff is the sa.”
Yue Jiannan nodded repeatedly, “No worries, it’s all the sa everywhere. It’s all about studying.”
Yue Jiandong laughed, “I’ve spoken with the director and the principal, and we’ll take you there tomorrow. You’ll also need to take a test so they can gauge your level.”
However, since greetings had already been exchanged, the test was more like a formality.
Yet Yue Jiandong showed a determined expression, “I will definitely do well on the test to make sure I don’t disgrace our family.”
Yue Jiandong couldn’t help laughing heartily, thinking to himself that the Yue Family was quite well-known in Daye Village, but who in the city would recognize them?
Still, he didn’t want to dampen his brother’s enthusiasm. That evening, he told their mother that he was taking the third brother to school tomorrow.
Fortunately, everything had been prepared these past few days, so they were ready to leave at any mont.
It just so happened that the school was on break, and Yue Qingqing started to nag again.
“Dad, Uncle, take with you.”
Yue Jiandong couldn’t help but laugh. This child got so excited at the ntion of going out; she really couldn’t stay still.
Since things at the school had already been taken care of and nothing extra was expected for tomorrow, he simply asked the other two children at ho.
“Xingxing, Xiaohu, do you want to go to the city with us?”
Xingxing shook her head. She was a child who preferred quiet, playing in her own courtyard when she was younger, and not enjoying outings as she grew older.
Xiaohu, on the other hand, pulled out several glass marbles from his school bag that he seed to have gotten from sowhere.
“I have plans to play with friends tomorrow.”
He hadn’t been attending school for long, yet he had already made a few friends with whom he could squat and play marbles.
Lin Chunju couldn’t resist flicking his forehead, “You’re sent to school to study, not just to play. Do you actually study properly during normal tis?”
Yue Xiaohu quickly put his hands behind his back and stood at attention.
“I’ve studied! Now I know that three chicks plus two chicks equal five chicks.”
Lin Chunju then asked, “What about two plus three?”
Yue Xiaohu fumbled with his fingers, struggling to count again.
The family couldn’t help but laugh at this scene.
This silly child, claiming to have studied, had probably just morized what the teacher said.
Lin Chunju did not ask further, her smile spreading uncontrollably across her face.
She loved the sound of reading at ho; in these children, she saw the hope of the Yue Family.
