Chapter 399 "Classmates"
Especially after the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination came out, everyone took these things more seriously.
"That's wonderful, and I want to thank you on behalf of all the students."
Shang Ruoting responded with a smile: "It doesn't matter, as long as it's useful to everyone."
Xie Yannan smiled back, "The principal has personally explained your matter. Coincidentally, there's a classmate in our class who lives in Yihe Village. I'll have him notify you when there's an exam."
After saying that, she waved to a male classmate.
Chen Lin walked over from his seat.
"teacher?"
Xie Yannan pointed at Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen and said, "These two students live in Sihe Village, not far from your home. If we have exams in the future, you will be responsible for notifying them in advance."
Chen Lin glanced at Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen and said, "Okay."
Xie Yannan glanced at the worn-out clock on the wall. "Okay, it's getting late. Now that we've finished welcoming the new students, some students will stay back to clean up. Everyone else can go home. Classes will officially start tomorrow, so don't be late."
"Chen Lin, your home is far away, so you don't have to stay. You can go home from school."
"Thank you, teacher." Chen Lin returned to his seat, packed his schoolbag, and followed Tan Chen and his wife out of the classroom.
These two new students happened to be going the same way as him, so he could go to Sihe Village to get familiar with the area first, which would make it convenient to notify them about the exam later.
"My two classmates, my home is in Yihe Village, so we're on the same route."
Tan Chen looked at the boy in front of him who looked to be in his teens. He had dark skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked quite lively.
"Okay, let's go back together."
As they boarded the bus back to town, Chen Lin opened up on the way, "Classmates, I heard you two ranked first and second in the transfer exam in Feng County?"
Although Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen knew that their grades were good, they had not heard of their rankings.
"How do you know?"
Chen Lin acted familiarly and said, "Well, everyone in No. 2 Middle School knows about this. It's said that a pregnant woman got first place in the exam."
After saying that, he glanced at Shang Ruoting.
"Among the ten transfer students we have this time, only this sister is pregnant."
Shang Ruoting was amused by Chen Lin's words, but she didn't want to continue discussing something she didn't know, so she changed the subject.
"Are you from Yihe Village?"
Chen Lin nodded: "My mother is the deputy captain of Yihe Village, her last name is Yang."
Shang Ruoting raised her eyebrows: "So it's the child of Deputy Captain Yang!"
"Sister, do you know my mother?"
Shang Ruoting nodded: "Yes, I went to Yihe Village to buy chickens and ducklings from Deputy Captain Yang before."
The few of them chatted casually like this, and the bus soon arrived in the town.
The rest of the way you have to walk back.
Tan Chen didn't dare to ride the bicycle at home. After all, his wife was pregnant, and it would be bad if she was hit by the bumps on the road. Therefore, they could only walk home slowly.
The temperature outside is suitable at this time, and walking does not feel tiring.
When Chen Lin passed by Sihe Village, he suggested going to Tan Chen's house to get acquainted with himself.
Tan Chen knew that the boy was enthusiastic and did not refuse. After all, he and his wife were still counting on him to notify them when they took exams in the future!
When Chen Lin arrived outside Tan Chen's house, he was shocked. Their family was considered wealthy in Yihe Village and they also lived in a brick house, but compared with others, they were far inferior.
"Brother Tan Chen, your house is so beautiful."
Tan Chen smiled and let this "classmate" into the yard.
Chen Lin's eyes were even more distracted. He looked around and was curious about everything.
Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen simply let him do as he pleased.
Old Lady Shang and Jiang Ping knew that they would be back by about this time, so they had already prepared the meal.
When the two of them brought the food to the table, they saw a young man coming into the yard.
"Tan Chen, who is this?"
Tan Chen couldn't help laughing: "Mom, this is a classmate of mine and Ruoting."
Jiang Ping also found it a little funny when she heard her son say this.
In her impression, classmates are all of similar age, and her son's classmate is indeed a little younger.
Although I knew that my son and daughter-in-law were transferred to Fengxian No. 2 Middle School, I still couldn't help laughing.
"Haha... Since your classmates are coming to our house, we must treat them well."
Tan Chen glanced at Chen Lin who was still looking around: "Okay, I'll listen to Mom."
Chen Lin just wanted to come to Tan Chen's house to acquaint himself, but he didn't expect that the other party would politely invite him to dinner.
Although he was usually a bit jumpy, he had good upbringing and quickly waved his hand to refuse: "No, Brother Tan Chen, I'll go back right away, right away..."
We were classmates at school, but when I got home and saw that Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen were so much older than me, I felt a little embarrassed to call them by their first names.
Before Chen Lin could even utter the word "go", he was attracted by the roast chicken in Jiang Ping's hand.
This smell is so fragrant, he feels like this is the first time he has smelled such a fragrant smell...
