Chapter 350 What books should girls read?

Junzi and Huazi still followed the soldiers' wives to work in the fields every day.

Although Huazi is young, he has great endurance and doesn't even complain of being tired after such a long time.

Soldiers had to work even harder; not only did they have to work in the fields, they also had to study.

When Zheng Lianfeng learned that his eldest son took the initiative to study, he was very pleased and bought him a pen and a notebook.

"Son, study hard. If you become half as good as your Aunt Su in the future, we will give you a separate page in the Zheng family tree!"

Zheng Lianfeng patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him.

Judging from Su Ranran's current achievements, any one of them alone is already an achievement worthy of being written into the ancestral hall.

If I could be half as good as them, wouldn't I have to open a separate page in the family tree?

When Junzi heard him mention Su Ranran, his eyes suddenly lit up with amazing light!

"Well! I want to learn from Aunt Su!"

Although the soldier didn't know what saline-alkaline rice was, when he saw everyone cheering wildly that day, he realized how powerful this rice was!

Aunt Su can make all the military uncles admire her, so she is the most powerful person in the family compound!

He also wants to be a person admired like her!

"Good boy! You have a promising future!" Zheng Lianfeng was very pleased. "When the next semester starts, Dad will send you guys to school."

Before, the children were in their hometown and Zheng Lianfeng had no control over them.

Now that the child is here, of course I have to send him to school.

The soldier was very happy. He had never been so eager to go to school and learn such wonderful knowledge.

Huazi didn't really want to go to school, "Dad, can I not go?"

Zheng Lianfeng was a little surprised, but he didn't blame him. Instead, he squatted down and asked, "Why don't you want to go to school? Isn't studying good?"

Huazi shook his head and said, "I don't want to study. I want to be a soldier like my dad!"

Huazi used to be ignorant and only knew how to follow Qiangzi around and play.

Although I know my father is a soldier, I don’t know what kind of soldier he is.

It was not until he heard the story of the child soldiers that he began to understand the deeds of this army.

When he finally found out that his father and the others were the same as the child soldiers, Huazi was so happy.

Apart from working in the fields every day, he would follow Zheng Lianfeng around and ask him questions about the army.

Now Huazi’s biggest dream is to grow up quickly and join the army like his father.

Hearing his son say with admiration that he wanted to be like him, Zheng Lianfeng would be lying if he said he wasn't moved.

"Good boy! You have great ambition!" Zheng Lianfeng touched his head and praised him.

Huazi was even happier.

But Zheng Lianfeng did not give up persuading her.

"Do you know who is the most powerful uncle in our family compound?

Huazi blurted out: "It's Uncle Shen He!"

Zheng Lianfeng nodded, "Yes, the deputy head of our family academy is the most powerful. Do you know why he is so powerful?"

Hua Zi still said without hesitation: "He knows martial arts!"

Zheng Lianfeng: …

Although the deputy captain does look like he knows martial arts, is that the point?

"Because the deputy head of the regiment has received education and attended military school."

Hearing this, Huazi was puzzled, "Do I need to study to be a soldier?"

Zheng Lianfeng looked at his childish son and patiently explained, "You can be a soldier even if you don't study, but most people can only serve for three years before returning home. It's difficult to continue."

Huazi didn’t know how long three years was, but he knew that three was a very small number.

Hearing that he would have to go back to his hometown so soon without continuing his studies, he became anxious.

"I won't go back home. I want to be a soldier for a hundred years!"

The child's childish words were innocent and cute, but Zheng Lianfeng did not make fun of him. Instead, he continued to encourage him, "If you want to be a 100-year-old, you must study hard, understand?"

Huazi still didn't want to go to school, but in order to be able to serve as a soldier for a hundred years, he gritted his teeth and nodded.

"good!"

Two of the three sons were willing to go to school, so Zheng Lianfeng turned to ask Qiangzi.

"Qiangzi, what about you?"

Although this son is a stubborn one, he is still his son after all, and Zheng Lianfeng naturally wishes the best for them.

Qiangzi also doesn't want to go to any crappy school.

But now he has become smarter and will not refute Zheng Lianfeng's words on the surface.

"If they all go, I'll go too."

Hearing this, Zheng Lianfeng was very satisfied and felt that his son had really changed for the better.

Dani, who was standing aside, looked at the three brothers with envy.

She is one year younger than Junzi and also longs to go to school.

But she knew in her heart that she was not Zheng Lianfeng's biological daughter, so how could she have the nerve to let him send her to school?

Just as I was thinking this, I heard Zheng Lianfeng's gentle voice.

"Dani, when school starts, you and Shitou should go to school together."

Dani looked up at him in disbelief.

Does Uncle Zheng really want to send them to school?

"Uncle Zheng...Uncle Zheng, can I go too?" Dani confirmed again.

She is a girl, not his biological child. Does he really want to send her to school?

"Yes, you and Shitou should go."

Although it is indeed stressful to provide five at a time.

But since they, the siblings, are already his children, he has the obligation to support their schooling.

Dani was overjoyed to hear that she could really go to school.

The smile on her face never disappeared throughout the whole day, and she didn't care even when she was bullied by Qiangzi.

She can go to school too!

She can go to school like a boy!

No one knows how much Dani envies those children who can sit in spacious and bright classrooms.

Every time she came back from collecting firewood, she would hide outside the window and watch secretly.

Yang Dongya even learned to recite "Autumn".

But she knew that her mother would not let her go to school, and she did not dare to ask for it.

Now that Uncle Zheng said he would send her there, how could Dani not be happy?

In the evening, Yang Dongya came back.

Seeing that Dani was grinning foolishly, she couldn't help but frown.

"Why are you so silly? Have you collected firewood? Have you cooked rice? Have you fed the chickens and mopped the floor?"

Yang Dongya is a taciturn person who doesn't talk much. Her daughter and son are the only people she can control.

When speaking, be as impolite as possible.

Dani didn't care about Yang Dongya's scolding, she was just too happy.

"Mom, Uncle Zheng said that he wants some soldiers to go to school, and Shitou and I are going too."

Dani couldn't wait to share the good news that she could go to school with her mother.

As she spoke, she couldn't help but smile.

That's going to school!

Is there anything more joyful than this?

"What? You said your Uncle Zheng wants to send you to school?" Yang Dongya's voice was a little sharp!

Dani was so frightened that she trembled, and her whole body seemed to be violently awakened from a beautiful dream.

Yang Dongya grabbed her clothes, his face full of anger.

"Dani, do you have any shame? Do you think you are your uncle Zheng's child? He asked you to go, and you really agreed with a straight face?"

How much does it cost to send five children to school?

Dani didn't expect her mother to react like this, and her face turned pale with fright.

"Go tell your uncle Zheng that you don't like studying, and don't go to this school. What's the point of studying for a girl? Who will do the housework if you study?"

Besides, what's the point of a girl studying so many books? It's better for her to do more work so that she won't be rejected when she gets married.
