Chapter 112: Skipping a Grade and Preparing for the Banquet

"Because I have mastered all the knowledge in the first grade, you can still test me. I have already learned all the knowledge in elementary school. I don't want to continue like this and waste time." He Luyi explained the reason.

"Have you mastered everything from elementary school? Okay, here's a set of exam papers for the transition from elementary school to junior high school. If you can get a score of 95 or above, I'll give you my all. There's also math and English. Come on."

"good."

He Luyi took out a pen and started answering the questions. Half an hour later, He Luyi finished answering the questions.

Changed to math and continued.

After 40 minutes, it was over and then he changed to the last exam. It still took He Luyi 40 minutes to finish all of them.

"Uncle Li, can you take a look?"

Li Ning had no intention of listening to what He Luyi said as he was busy correcting test papers.

After 20 minutes, all the test papers were graded: 98, 100, 97.

Li Ning was shocked. "Green, that's pretty impressive!"

"Can I skip a grade now?"

"Okay, but go back and tell the third brother and the others to go to the junior high school tomorrow."

"Okay." He Luyi was very happy. She didn't expect that she could experience the feeling of skipping grades in her lifetime. It's awesome!

She turned around and skipped away, returning to the classroom to continue her class. Even if her classmates continued to harass her, she didn't care. As long as everyone was happy, she would just get used to it.

As evening approached, He Lvyi returned home and announced the good news, "Grandma, Grandpa, and everyone, I will officially become a junior high school student tomorrow."

"Oh, that's good, a junior high school student." Old He said it without any reaction.

In a moment, "Junior high school student!" Old He opened his eyes wide and looked at He Luyi, "Granddaughter, are you serious?"

"Of course I'm not kidding. I passed the test today. The teacher said that I have a good grasp of the knowledge and a solid foundation, so I can skip a grade." He Luyi blinked, looking innocent.

He Feng would watch his daughter pretending to be stupid, but he didn't expose her. This child must be narcissistic and trying to flatter herself.

"Dad, this is a good thing. This way I can finish school quickly and help with housework. It's great."

He Feng would talk to He Lvyi. He understood his daughter's thoughts. In fact, this child was lazy and didn't want to do anything all day. She had long wanted to finish school quickly and continue lying at home.

"Okay, then, granddaughter, study hard."

"Okay, got it. I'll make sure to complete the task."

The whole family was having fun and having a lot of fun.

Suddenly, Old He seemed to remember something, "By the way, our family is going to have a big banquet this Saturday. I've already told everyone that we'll have seven or eight hundred tables and invite everyone to have dinner together and celebrate." Old He said to He Luyi with a smile, looking very excited.

"This... no need for that!" He Luyi didn't expect that this would happen. Oh my god, everyone will treat her like a monkey.

"No, it has to be done. I've already made the arrangements today. The tables, chairs, and benches borrowed from several nearby villages will be shipped over tomorrow. Boss, second brother, and third brother, you guys can push your tasks aside these few days and focus on this first. Second brother's wife, third brother's wife, you guys can help out by washing the vegetables and stuff. The people who will help have already been called. Boss, how this feast turns out depends on the skills of you and your people."

Everyone in the family was given a task, even He Peiyi was not spared. She brought children of the same age to play together, which was considered an alternative way of entertaining guests.

Except for He Luyi, well, she is indeed quite idle, or you could say not idle, her tasks are quite heavy, dealing with all the aunts and uncles and saying polite words.

He Luyi was very desperate, but she didn't know that what she hated most was dealing with her aunts and uncles. They were really chatterboxes, and she just wanted some quiet time.

Time passed by as the He family and most of the villagers were busy. The grandeur of this banquet was incomparable to all previous wedding banquets, full-moon banquets, etc., with at least 100 tables.

This time, the He family was very happy because they had all their own chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, rabbits, etc., and they caught and killed them right away.

At least half of the chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits on the farm were caught.

The banquet was arranged with 33 dishes on the table, including cold dishes, hot dishes, steamed dishes, and various stews.

Cold-boiled zheergen, cold-boiled cucumber, cold-boiled pig ears, braised beef, hand-shredded chicken, cold noodles, jelly, braised chicken feet, braised vegetarian dishes...you can mix them as you like, there are always eight cold dishes on the table.

Hot dishes include fried meat with wood ear mushrooms, fried meat with green peppers, scrambled eggs with green peppers, eight-treasure eggs, spicy chicken, stir-fried rabbit meat, twice-cooked pork, Maoxuewang, boiled cabbage, stir-fried vegetables, braised pork with preserved vegetables, glutinous rice with red dates, stewed chicken with mushrooms, stewed pig's trotters with radish, sour radish and old duck soup, codonopsis and black-bone chicken soup, steamed fish, stir-fried three fresh vegetables, steamed eggs with minced meat... There are various dishes, and they can be randomly matched. The dishes on each table are different.

In order to prepare this large buffet, the forces of one or even several villages were mobilized to dig up water chestnuts, wild vegetables, kill chickens, ducks, geese, pick vegetables...all the dishes were prepared after several days.

The space for placing ingredients alone is dozens of square meters, not to mention the stoves and numerous steamers.

Firing began early on Saturday morning.

He Luyi's aunt and uncle came to the He family early. Not only her aunt and uncle, but also many relatives from her uncle's family came to help. He Luyi felt a little familiar when she saw her aunt whom she hadn't seen for a long time. She rarely saw her in normal times, after all, everyone was busy with their own things.

After He Fengying and her husband returned from other places four years ago, they never went out to work again. They also followed her family to farm and grow vegetables. Now they have built a three-story Western-style house and live a happy life.

Whenever she got the chance, He Luyi would give her aunt the spiritual spring water so that the whole family would be healthy. She hoped that her aunt would not get sick again and avoid this and that.

"Aunt, you're here." He Luyi stepped forward to greet her. Next to her was Yang Tianyu, her cousin, who was a few months older than He Peiyi.

"Tianyu, call me sister, and I'll take you out to play."

Yang Tianyu was rather shy and clung to his mother tightly, "Sister is taking you out to play, go ahead."

He Fengying persuaded her son. She also wanted her son to be more extroverted. It would be bad if a boy was more introverted than a girl.

"Let's go, sister bought some delicious food." He Luyi walked forward and took the little brother's hand, "You can play with toys with your sister~" The voice of coaxing the child sounded, tempting the child's restless heart.

"Go ahead."

"Mom..." Still didn't dare to take a step forward.

"It's okay, go play with your sister, you can make a lot of friends to play with~" He Fengying persuaded patiently.

Under the double pressure, Yang Tianyu finally relaxed himself and agreed to leave his mother and go play with his sister.

He Lvyi pulled Yang Tianyu, who kept looking back, and said patiently, "Let's go play for a while, and then we'll go find mom soon, okay?"

"Okay." The cute little voice made He Luyi fall in love with him. She screamed wildly in her heart. Her cousin was so cute when he was a child.

He Luyi took little Tianyu to the playground, where many other children were already playing.
