The dragon tribe's most beloved little princess found herself in an era of scarcity, lacking clothes and food. Fortunately, she had a grandmother who doted on her as if she were the apple of he...
Chapter 410 Little Bookworm
I bought a separate yellow single-layer tin pencil case for my baby, and the pencils were gold too. I also picked out a blue one for Gu Tingyun as a return gift for the backpack.
The girls all loved it dearly and cherished it immensely.
Only Erni looked at the extra pencil case in Helian Jiao's hand, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes. After the family split up, her grandmother became even more biased!
Sanni held a notebook and a pen in her hand; she was content just to go to school with them.
Seeing that she was only holding it in her hand, Helian Jiao turned around and ran into the house with her short legs. She took out her own pink schoolbag from the cabinet and ran out again: "Third sister, this schoolbag is for you."
The little princess didn't like this pink color, so after using the pink backpack once, it was left at the bottom of the drawer.
She can hardly remember anymore.
Sanni paused for a moment, looking at her big, bright eyes and fair, tender face. Touched, she reached out and took the schoolbag, gripping the strap tightly, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Thank you, sweetheart."
Then, with unusually gentle movements, he put the notebook and pen into his schoolbag.
I reaffirmed my resolve to study hard and earn a lot of money to support my precious baby!
Now, only Da Ni and Er Ni don't have new schoolbags, and Er Ni feels even more upset.

The next day, Ma Xiulian and Chen Dazhu personally escorted several children to the commune primary school.
Chen Jianjun is also going; it's his daughter's first time going to school, and as her father, he definitely wants to take her there in person!
Everyone else in the family has to go to work in the fields, so we can't let this little thing delay our earning of work points.
With the elderly couple around, Zhou Zhaodi wasn't worried that Chen Erbao would skip school. She just sternly warned him, "Chen Erbao, don't cause trouble at school. You must study hard, do you hear me!"
"I understand," Chen Erbao replied listlessly.
The thought of sitting in that classroom all day was unbearable for him.
Da Ni looked at Chen Jianguo earnestly and assured him, "Dad, don't worry, I'll come home to work as soon as I get out of school."
With his dark complexion, Chen Jianguo waved his hand and said in a muffled voice, "Go."
"Let's get out!"
Helian Jiao, carrying a small yellow schoolbag, walked proudly at the front with her head held high.
The little yellow backpack was way too big for her small frame, who was not even five years old.
Fortunately, there wasn't much inside, and the little princess walked very steadily.
The elderly couple and Chen Jianjun followed behind, and seeing her so spirited and adorable, they were extremely delighted.
Along the way, we also encountered many people from the commune who were sending their children to school, but almost all of them were boys.
I was quite shocked to see that the Chen family's girls were also carrying schoolbags and going to school.
The elderly couple in the Chen family usually dote on their child so much that they send the child to school, so they aren't surprised.
But the fact that so many girls went was completely unexpected.
After all, even though tuition and textbook fees are waived, you still have to spend money to buy paper and pens!
In addition, someone needs to do housework and take care of the baby.
Besides, girls will get married sooner or later, so spending money to send them to school is basically just subsidizing their future in-laws.
Old Mrs. Song next door was also taking her grandson to school. When she saw this scene, she thought Ma Xiulian had really gone mad and lost her mind, actually spending money to send a girl to school.
Some adults who liked Helian Jiao couldn't help but praise her when they saw her spirited and adorable appearance: "Oh! My little darling is going to school today too? Look how energetic she is!"
