The two children happily went downstairs, but Zhou Xiang frowned. "The teacher is impatient? Then why not switch classes?"

The next term will be sixth grade, and we cannot let the teacher’s mood affect our children.

Not only Jianjian and Kangkang were waiting at the dinner table, but also Zhou Yu and Zhu Hang.

Zhou wanted to ask Jiankang to write what they would do first, and she would talk to their parents first.

I called my second sister and brother-in-law to the yard and asked, "Brother-in-law, who is the healthy head teacher?"

"New transfer, surnamed Yao, what's wrong?"

"Tomorrow, I'll take them to school and meet Teacher Yao."

Seeing that his sister-in-law did not give a direct answer, Zhu Hang did not ask any further questions, but instead asked about his brother-in-law.

"I'm on a mission, and I don't know when I'll be back."

With their aunt teaching them how to do their homework, they learned quickly and finished their homework before dinner.

Jin Chao, who was helping in the park, came back. When he saw Zhou Xiang, he asked with a smile whether things went well.

Zhou Xiang repeated what he had said to his mother to his family members gathered around the dinner table.

Zhu Hang Zhou Yu also asked her why she didn't agree to reconciliation.

Before Zhou Xiang could answer, his father exploded at the couple, "If you don't understand, don't ask nonsense questions. Xiang Xiang doesn't agree to reconcile. There must be something else going on. How can the Kong family just reconcile if they say so?"

Not to mention the daily things, but you guys are planning to just let it go after ten months of fear and anxiety? Now that the Kong family is in the wrong, you don’t have to worry about it, and you’re not allowed to give them a good face.”

Zhu Hang and Zhou Yu nodded repeatedly.

Zhou Xiang smiled and said, "My dad understands me. Even if there's nothing wrong here, we can't just agree to reconcile. Why didn't he come to reconcile when I was afraid of him before?

Now, we are right, we are no longer afraid of him, and he proposes a settlement? Then, what are all my efforts over the years worth?

Moreover, I don't believe that he can appease all the tribesmen with just one word of reconciliation. If there are those who are disobedient and provoke me, do I have to endure it just because I agreed to the reconciliation?

So, it would be better not to reconcile at all. If anyone dares to come, I will ask them to be my drug testers. The Kong family will have to bring money and smile to buy the antidote. How relieved would that be? If I reconcile, even if I drug the provocateurs, would I still have the nerve to ask them to pay for the antidote?

Really, those of you who think this way are not qualified businessmen."

Father Zhou nodded. "That's right. Agreeing to a settlement gives others the illusion that you can manipulate us at will. Didn't your mother and I suffer enough in the past?"

Mother Zhou smiled awkwardly. "Okay, okay, I was wrong. You're right. We can't let them have the final say on everything. I wasn't afraid of them before, and I'm even less afraid of them now."

Jin Chao quickly invited everyone to eat, and his words almost caused a family war.

Just as Zhou Xiang put down the bowl, he heard his mother-in-law's voice coming from the yard, "Xiang Xiang is back, right?"

Zhou Xiang stood up and went out to greet him, saying, "Yes! I came back in the evening and planned to see you tomorrow morning!"

"My legs are still strong, so I'll be fine if I run a little more. Where's Ling Ran?"

"He's on a mission."

"When will you be back?"

"I don't know!"

Zhou Xiang led his mother-in-law into the living room, and his mother brought over some tea.

Dong Yunrong took the tea tray and said, "I'll do it myself. My dear, you can sit down too."

Zhou's mother laughed and said, "Why are you calling us in-laws?" Then she sat down on the sofa.

Dong Yunrong smiled and said, "I didn't know the child would be able to come back so soon after this mission. Before I left, I promised to hold a banquet upon my return. Shouldn't I discuss this with my in-laws?"

"Isn't Ling Ran back yet?"

Zhou's mother also agreed to hold a wedding banquet. The two children have been together for more than a year, so it's time to do it.

"It's okay, let's make preparations first and wait for Ling Ran to come back."

Zhou Xiang just felt a headache, "Mom, my two dear mothers, can you please keep the wedding simple?"

"no!"

"no!"

Zhou wanted to stand up, "Since my opinion is useless, you two should discuss it on your own!"

The two mothers waved their hands indifferently.

This made Zhou Xiang realize how it felt to be unwelcome.

Zhou Xiang returned to her bedroom, lay on the bed and fell asleep without knowing how. She had not relaxed during the more than 20 days in Huaixi Village. Now that she was back home, the mental relaxation made her easily tired.

In the morning, Zhou Xiang was woken up by his mother knocking on the door and shouting, "Didn't you say you were going to send Jiankang to school? Hurry up and get up and eat."

Zhou Xiang stretched, got himself ready, went downstairs to wash up and have breakfast.

It has been eleven years since she graduated from primary school and she has not been to the town primary school. Even after the road to the town primary school was repaired by Master Ma Gua, she has not come to see it.

Today, a 5-meter-wide cement road leads directly to the school gate, and the school wall has also been built. The gate is made of iron fences and painted vermilion, which should be the work of my godfather.

Jiankang and Kangkang walked excitedly on both sides of their aunt. It was the first time their aunt sent them to school!

There are some parents dropping off their children at the school gate, but most children go to and from school by themselves.

Those who knew Zhou Xiang would take the initiative to greet him, and Zhou Xiang would just nod faintly.

When Principal Li saw Zhou Xiang at the gate, his eyes became moist. This student was the pride of his life.

"Principal Li."

"Zhou Xiang."

Principal Li's call made the parents and teachers who didn't know Zhou Xiang look at him sideways.

"Principal Li, I'm sending Jiankangkang to school and will talk to their teacher."

Principal Li immediately understood the problem and said, "Come on, I'll take you there."

"Will it not take up your time?"
