The New Year is over, and Chen Jianguo has resumed his usual work routine.

Su Xia also began her plan, first spending two days to roughly review and plan Da Bao's three years of junior high school textbooks.

Then, comparing the exam questions with those from previous years, a lot of questions were created, and Niu Niu was also busy with that.

She became a teacher and asked her father, Chen Jianguo, to find a blackboard, though it's unclear where he got it from.

Then the chalk and blackboard were nailed to the wall. Once you picked up the chalk, it actually looked quite convincing.

The two children sat upright, with the twins next to them, looking as serious as if they were taking an exam.

Niu Niu coughed twice, then began issuing tasks, "Little Niu Niu and Little Bao, continue reading your comic books, and then write two more stories from 1 to 10."

"Okay, Teacher Chen!" The soft, sweet voice almost broke Niu Niu's defenses.

Cough cough...

She glanced at Da Bao and Er Bao, who were trying not to laugh, rolled her eyes, and snorted inwardly.

"Erbao, you just do your winter break homework. After you finish, take a look at the upcoming study materials!"

Erbao's eyes widened, as if he wanted to wail, but Niu Niu's eyes remained fixed like saucers, and finally she whispered, "I understand!"

Niu Niu then looked at Da Bao, who started to feel uneasy. Often, the last one is never certain...

Sure enough, the next second, news broke that the sky had fallen.

"Dabao, you have two days to finish your homework. After that, you'll start studying the second-year junior high textbooks. Your family is transferring you to a higher grade, so it'll be almost another year of study. Therefore, you won't have time to play before school starts!"

Da Bao's eyes widened...

Erbao was initially shocked, then felt sympathetic, and finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully it didn't happen.

The twins don't understand anything; they just keep reading comic books!

"Sis...Sis...why did you skip a grade?" Da Bao shouted in disbelief.

Niu Niu rolled her eyes and pulled out the excuse her mother had prepared beforehand, "I skipped a grade, why can't you?"

Da Bao was shocked... Just this reason?

"It's simple anyway. You're not stupid, and you have a month. How can you not do it?" Niu Niu used reverse psychology.

Da Bao's lips trembled, wanting to say no, but he couldn't get the words out.

In the end, all I could think was, "I'll study, but I'm not even sure if I'll pass the exam."

And so a new scene appeared in the house: after breakfast, the four brothers began their study tasks.

Less than half an hour later, the twins finished their tasks and started running around and playing at home.

An hour later, Erbao started playing, and even went outside to play in order to avoid being caught by Niu Niu.

Anyway, I'm familiar with this area, but I haven't forgotten to draw in the area.

I set aside an hour each day to visit Grandma Dou.

When the old lady asked why Niu Niu wasn't there, Er Bao sighed and didn't hide anything: "My older brother is skipping a grade, and my older sister is giving me lessons every day!"

The old lady's shrewd eyes looked at Erbao. "Why don't you skip a grade?"

Erbao shook his head in fright, "Great-Grandma, please spare me! You have no idea how many questions my mom sets up! My older brother's head is spinning from all the questions!"

When the old lady heard Su Xia's name, a smile appeared on her lips. "Don't just keep drawing, go back and read more books!"

Erbao nodded, "Yes, I completed all the tasks that Mom and my sister assigned me before coming out!"

The old lady nodded in satisfaction and continued to give instructions.

At first, Chen Jianguo thought the changes at home were just to stop Da Bao from being naughty.

But after a few days, I felt something was wrong. Why should going to school be like attending classes every day, just studying all the time?

That night, seeing the twins fast asleep, Chen Jianguo asked them curiously.

Su Xia glanced at him and casually replied, "I want Da Bao to skip a grade when school starts!"

Chen Jianguo was shocked, staring at Su Xia as if to confirm whether it was true or not.

The last question was, "Why are you skipping a grade?"

Su Xia didn't tell the truth, only saying perfunctorily, "Niu Niu has already jumped, so I can't. All I do is play all day. It's better to let me learn more!"

Then she closed her eyes and went to sleep. As for the man's questioning gaze, sorry, she didn't want to pay attention to it.

Chen Jianguo.....

So the older child stayed home, while the younger child played by himself. When asked about the neighbors' curiosity, the younger child simply said, "I'm doing my homework at home!"

"Ah... how come I didn't know I had to do so much?" Liu Jiaxiao, who was in the same class as Da Bao, asked in surprise.

Erbao's lips twitched when he heard this. He really wanted to yell at Brother Liu, "The school doesn't have much, but my sister and my mom do!"

And so, Da Bao successfully and diligently studied in his room, reading, writing, memorizing, doing exercises, and composing essays...

Why not in the living room? "Little sister, if you run this way, your brother can't catch you!"

"Okay, Third Brother, be gentle. You hurt me last time!"

"No problem, once the weather gets better, we can go play in the yard!"

"Uh-huh...."

This is why Da Bao doesn't study in the living room—it's been taken over.

One day in mid-February, Su Xia made breakfast, ate it, and then found an outfit to wear when she went out.

She instructed the children, "Listen to your older sister at home!"

Da Bao and Er Bao nodded; they couldn't disobey, or they would get a beating.

The twins nodded vigorously. "Mom, when are you coming back?" the little girl asked curiously.

"I'll be back around this afternoon!" Su Xia went to the village to attend her second brother's wedding and will be back after the meal.

The little girl felt relieved after hearing this; as long as her mother came back, everything would be fine.

"Mom, I'm at home, you'd better get out quickly!" Niu Niu reminded her.

"Okay, don't forget to have Da Bao do his homework!"

Da Bao, who was standing to the side, thought he had gotten away with something easy, and immediately drooped his big head.

Niu Niu nodded, "Mom, drive carefully!"

"Mother... drive carefully...!"

Su Xia waved to the little ones behind her and left the county town in less than ten minutes.

She was alone on the way. As for her parents, Su Xia had agreed to go alone when she went before, without having to go with them.

Su Xia rode along the road with great difficulty. Compared to the asphalt roads of later generations, the bumpy dirt roads were another kind of ordeal.

When they arrived in the village, the entire Su family was there. Su Xia quietly went to her parents' room.

"Sister, come in quickly!" Su Nan, who was just coming out, saw Su Xia and hurriedly took the bicycle from her to let her in.

"Girl, what are you doing here in this freezing weather..."

While taking off Su Xia's coat, Su's mother complained with heartache.

Su Xia didn't say anything. Although she wasn't particularly cold, she was exhausted...

"Xiaxia, you're here. Where are the children?"

Su Xia took a sip of her father's hot water before finally having a chance to speak, "Niu Niu, watch!"

Mr. and Mrs. Su were relieved. Su Nan rolled her eyes. Her niece was already so big, how could she possibly cause any worry?

"Xiaoxue isn't back either?" Su Xia looked around and felt that someone was missing.

Upon hearing Su Xia's words, not only Su Nan, but also Su's parents immediately became happy...

Su Xia was shocked. Could it be...?

"She's pregnant...?"

The three of them laughed happily upon hearing this, especially Su Nan, who grinned foolishly, "Sis, I'll have a daughter soon...!"

Su Xia's lips twitched, and she really wanted to pour cold water on the idea: "What if it's still there?"

However, she was still kind and it was better to give Su Nan a little hope.

Su Xia took her seat only when the wedding banquet began.

When the villagers saw Su Xia, they greeted her warmly: "Su Xia is back...!"

"Hello, ma'am!"

"Su girl, you came back by yourself?"

"Well, the child is too young, so we couldn't give up our spot!"

"Is Jian Guo at work?"

"Yes, I'm too busy at work to take time off!"

Su Xia responded to each of them, and finally sat down at the main table behind her mother. Soon after, her second brother and sister-in-law came over.

Su Erge looked radiant today, with a smile on his face the whole time.

"Little sister, just sit still, there's nothing to do here!"

Su Xia, who was already seated and waiting for her meal, didn't want to move at all.
