Chapter 134 The Impoverished Mother-in-Law in the Period Literature 14
At the township primary school, Niu Niu's homeroom teacher, Lin Meijuan, spoke to several parents about their children's college entrance exams. "Your children are studying very hard in school. At this rate, they might be able to get into the county junior high school."
"The junior high schools in the county have strong teaching staff, but one thing to note is that they have to start learning English in the next two years. My junior high school colleagues say that rural children don't have the opportunity to learn English, so they find it very difficult to learn English in junior high school. English is a required subject in the junior high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination. So I think it's safer to find a good cram school or hire a tutor for your child to start learning two years in advance."
Yun Xi was dumbfounded. Niu Niu was going to be in fifth grade this summer vacation and sixth grade next year, but her teacher asked her to tutor the child in English more than two years in advance.
"Teacher Lin, isn't the middle school in the village good?"
Some parents are puzzled.
Lin Meijuan shook her head. "It's not bad, it's just not that great. The upper limit is not high, especially with many students who just want to get by. Therefore, the learning atmosphere is relatively relaxed, which really tests the children's self-control."
"The No. 1 Experimental Middle School in the county has both a junior high school and a senior high school. It has a strong learning atmosphere and a high rate of admission to higher education. If you do well in the junior high school entrance exam, even if you fail the high school entrance exam, you still have the opportunity to be directly admitted to the No. 1 Experimental Middle School's senior high school. Last year, one student was admitted to Qinghua University and two were admitted to Peking University."
Yun Xi understood, "Teacher Lin, do you have any good cram schools to recommend? To be honest, we are completely clueless about this."
Lin Meijuan said: "Really not, you can look for it yourself."
"Okay, thank you, teacher. We parents will take care of it."
After leaving the head teacher's office, Yun Xi was waiting for her daughter-in-law. She turned her head inadvertently and saw a dirty little boy staring at her with clear eyes through the gaps between some pine trees.
Yun Xi narrowed her eyes slightly. After an unknown amount of time, she came back to her senses and walked towards the door.
"Mom, wait for me."
Wang Lili talked about her children fighting at school.
"I understand. Let's go back first."
After arriving home, Yun Xi suppressed her anxiety and said to Wang Lili, "It seems that you don't have enough pressure from studying to have time to fight. I plan to hire a tutor for the children during the summer vacation. Do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?"
"Tutor? Did the teacher ask you to hire one?"
"Yes, we're looking for an English tutor, but the other party can't recommend a good candidate. I thought we could hire a college student to teach every morning during the summer vacation, so that the children can have fun in the afternoon." Yun Xi: "Are there any college students in our village?"
"Yes, the village chief's youngest son, Zhou Shengli, and Uncle Zhou Wu's only daughter, Zhou Lingling, are both university students." Wang Lili thought for a moment and said, "Shengli studied history, and Lingling seems to have studied economics. Lingling got into a good university, and she even treated them to a banquet."
"Wait until the summer vacation to see if the two college students will come back home. If not, I'll go to the county to find a tutoring class." Yun Xi had an idea.
Niu Niu spread her hands at Dadan, saying that she would have no fun during the summer vacation.
Returning to the bedroom, Yun Xi immediately said to the system: "System, have you noticed that something is wrong with me?"
System: "? When did you become abnormal?"
"Just now at the village primary school, I saw that little boy. I don't know why, but at that moment, I really wanted to pick on him, but I clearly didn't know him." Yun Xi expressed her feelings at the time. "I restrained myself for a long time before I refrained from hitting him. Do you think this is normal? It's very abnormal!"
System: "Wait a minute, that's the male lead? You've met the male lead, why did I only find out now?"
"Yeah, you also have a problem here. I was wondering why you didn't remind me then." Yun Xi frowned. "This male protagonist is so evil. Does anyone who meets him want to go against him?"
"Luckily I didn't do it, otherwise I would have to pay dozens of dollars and still not get it back."
It was afternoon, and the early summer wind was alternating between warm and hot. The sea water was rippling, and seabirds occasionally rushed into the sea to fight with fish.
The large yard at home is surrounded by a wall, so you can't see what's happening at the seaside.
Yun Xi ended the conversation and saw that it was almost time. She took her daughter-in-law and the basket and walked towards the river. "Niuniu, lock the door and don't let the brothers and sisters run away."
"Okay, grandma, how about I cook millet porridge?" Niu Niu asked loudly.
"Don't use gas. Turn off the rice cooker immediately after use. We can cook the vegetables when we get back."
Wang Lili gave earnest instructions.
The sea breeze seemed particularly gentle tonight. Yun Xi was wearing a light blue plaid shirt and black wide-leg pants. She looked very skinny. The original owner's body was damaged, and now it was Yun Xi's turn to feel uncomfortable all over. She was going to drink a physical enhancement liquid tonight. She had to live a few more years. It would be best if she could play with her mobile phone and play games. It was really wonderful just thinking about it.
Sanying Village is not small. The village wharf is average among nearby villages. There are four or five seafood purchasing points. I also heard that the village chief is planning to open a grocery store in the village, which is probably going to happen this year.
Sanying Village will develop slowly.
There are many people at the dock waiting for the ship to return. Whether they can earn back the gas money today will be revealed here.
"Erwa, add water to the rice cooker, Dadan, wash the millet."
Erwa scratched his head, "Sister, how much water should I add?"
Niuniu put her hands on her hips and asked, "How many people are there in your family?"
Dadan counted, "Twelve people."
Niuniu: "That's it, one bowl of millet soup per person. How many bowls of water do you want?"
Erwa looked at his sister, then at his brother, and understood, "Twelve bowls."
"If we add sixteen bowls, some of the water will evaporate, and we also need to prepare for the problem that one bowl is not enough for everyone." Niu Niu raised her chin.
"Big Egg, that little bit of millet isn't enough. It will be very watery when cooked."
"Oh, okay, one more spoonful will do."
"can."
Niu Niu picked up the bowl and started stirring the batter. The three little ones ran back and forth between the kitchen and the living room, giggling and laughing non-stop, which made Niu Niu very busy.
"Be careful, Erni, don't let them bump their heads while you're at it."
"Okay, big sister."
As the setting sun gave up its last rays of light, a dozen fishing boats came sailing in the distance. The largest and newest one was theirs.
"Hey!"
Wang Lili waved her hand to remind.
After seeing this, Zhou Guanxue skillfully turned the boat around, and ten minutes later, the boat docked smoothly at the pier.
Yun Xi and Wang Lili climbed onto the bow of the boat, and Zhou Fu opened the cabin.
"Wow! Lots of prawns and some sea bass too. I've made back my gas money."
Wang Lili breathed a sigh of relief.
“Let’s start sorting.”
Yun Xi squatted down and started to work, mainly sorting out the miscellaneous fish and shrimps. Sea bass costs six yuan per catty, and prawns are more expensive, about fifteen yuan per catty. This trip to the sea had a good harvest.
"Yeah, that's good, but I saw a family that seemed to have caught a big yellow croaker. That's what makes them really rich." Zhou Fu said sourly.
“That’s really a fortune.”
