Xia Xiao dealt with stones every day, taking various kinds of stones into the space. Shitou had not woken up yet, and Zha Xiao was sowhat worried, even wondering if only an energy stone could awaken Shitou.
Upon bringing it into the space, Xia Xiao placed it beside Shitou, not knowing whether it would be of any use. Xia Xiao observed for a mont but couldn’t discern anything; she didn’t even know how Shitou absorbed energy.
However, when Xia Xiao was about to leave the space, Shitou spoke up, "Energy stone, where did you get this?"
"I found it by accident and brought it here, not sure if it’s what you need."
As soon as Xia Xiao finished, Shitou said, "It’s exactly this kind."
Shitou was extrely happy, "It’s just that there’s not much energy inside it."
"I’ve now joined the Geological Departnt, and the kids are older, so I can go out and do research with them. You don’t need to sleep anymore, right? Co with ," Xia Xiao suggested.
"Great, I can finally go out, I had a really good sleep," Shitou stretched as if waking from a long stretch, and feeling very good after absorbing a bit of energy.
After coming out of the space, Zheng Xianghong handed Xia Xiao a telegram, "It’s from S city."
Xia Xiao took it and froze for a mont; she had almost forgotten about the stock investnt.
In the telegram, Wu Manni expressed that Xia Chunrong was planning to buy stocks, and Wu Manni hoped Xia Xiao could persuade him otherwise.
Naturally, Xia Xiao wouldn’t dissuade; she even wanted to buy, for she knew that stocks could be very profitable at the beginning. Right then Xia Xiao returned to the space to check her assets, requested two days off from the Geological Departnt, and made a trip to S city.
Wu Manni had not expected Xia Xiao to arrive so quickly, "You really want to buy? I was hoping you could persuade your brother, it’s quite risky."
"Sister-in-law, how will we know without trying?" Xia Xiao went straight to open an account, even investing all the money she had prepared.
She even thought about exchanging the treasures in the space for money to invest, but after so consideration, she decided not to.
Being influenced by Xia Xiao’s participation, Xia Jing, Xia Hong, Xia Lin and even Xia Hua, this group of siblings all invested more or less into the stocks.
Xia Xiao also knew about Old Dong’s rags-to-riches story from her previous life—it was all about stocks. Now, she was closely following her elder brother’s lead.
During the two days at her parents’ ho, she also t Gao Jiazhi and talked about stocks. Compared to Xia Xiao’s large investnts, Gao Jiazhi invested less.
Xia Xiao didn’t persuade Gao Jiazhi to invest more, nor would she urge her siblings to do so, as she wasn’t certain it was a sure win without losses. She even told them to buy stocks only to the level they could afford.
To Xia Xiao, investing, on a larger scale, was speculation.
Stocks are speculation, and since it’s speculation, one must be prepared for potential losses.
This is what Xia Xiao’s forr leader had told her. In her previous life, Xia Xiao had bought stocks, but only played around with small amounts, and after suffering losses, she didn’t invest more, letting her shares sit untouched.
Yang Xuehua also returned, and when Xia Xiao t her, she ntioned the stocks. Yang Xuehua expressed an interest in buying.
"Aren’t you afraid of losses?" Xia Xiao said, "There are risks involved."
"If I lose, so be it. I actually think with your luck, following you won’t lead to major losses." Over the years, Yang Xuehua had gotten used to following Xia Xiao’s lead, and it had turned out well.
After completing her graduate studies, Yang Xuehua stayed at the school. Her parents were forrly professors at First University, and now that she remained there, Xia Xiao felt she was sowhat influenced by them.
Moreover, Yang Xuehua’s parents hadn’t returned to the country, and she didn’t know their situation abroad. Now, she didn’t dare to contact them, considering Yu Shijie’s influence, so she was more cautious, worried that her rash actions might negatively impact Yu Shijie.
The children were extrely intelligent and had excellent grades, with Feiyang and Feiyue consistently ranked first in their exams, which even put pressure on Weilin due to her outstanding brothers, making her study even harder than before.
Feiyi, Feiteng, and Feiling were tutored one-on-one by Feiyang, Feiyue, and Weilin, and they were all capable of skipping grades without any problems.
But Xia Xiao did not agree to the children skipping grades, hoping they would advance step by step. After all, they were already very smart, and if they all skipped grades and consistently ranked first, Xia Xiao felt her entire family might be taken away for research.
And even so, taking things step by step, the children still stood out and caught attention, which only made Xia Xiao more reluctant to let them skip grades.
Many parents asked how Xia Xiao educated her children. She frankly said that by establishing role models and bringing out the eldest and second child, the younger children were taught by them. The other parents nodded in agreent, as Feiyang and Feiyue were the elder brothers and good examples to their younger siblings.
However, since Xia Xiao didn’t allow the children to skip grades, they had to cultivate other extracurricular interests. Martial arts was mandatory for the children, as required by Gao Jiaxing.
Xia Xiao wasn’t strict with the kids’ interests. Whatever they wanted to learn, she went along with them.
To Xia Xiao’s surprise, upon her return from a trip, Feiyi actually wanted to beco a badminton player, while Feiteng, Feiling, and Weilin were all heading towards becoming child stars.
It just so happened that a film crew was shooting nearby, and Feiteng and Feiling were cast, with Weilin following and playing a role. With television being very popular at the ti, Zheng Xianghong was overjoyed to see her grandchildren becoming child stars.
