Chapter 92 You’re hiding such a big thing from me?
Xu's mother was stunned by Aunt Yuan's series of actions and stood there in a daze.
The loan sounds nice, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that there is no time to pay it back.
"I'm sorry, it's not convenient for me to see."
Xu Zhixia's cold voice brought Mother Xu back to her senses.
She turned around and saw Xu Zhixia walking towards her without her knowing.
Aunt Yuan's smile froze: "You kid, I just want to borrow a bowl of meat, what's the inconvenience?"
"It's not that I don't want to pay it back, it's mainly because of my grandson..."
Before he could finish the rest of his words, Xu Zhixia interrupted him impatiently.
"Let's forget about borrowing it." She paused and continued, "We're all neighbors, there's no point in talking about whether to lend it or not."
Does this mean you're offering to send it off? Aunt Yuan's face lit up with joy, and before she could say anything, Xu Zhixia continued.
“Just buy it.”
"I won't count it as your meat ticket, one yuan per bowl."
As soon as the words fell, Aunt Yuan exploded: "It's so expensive, why don't you go and grab it!"
You should know that a bowl of meat soup noodles in a state-owned restaurant costs only a little over one yuan.
Xu Zhixia raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"Aunt Yuan, I'm afraid you haven't figured it out yet, so now you're looking for me."
"If you don't feel comfortable with it, you can leave."
Aunt Yuan's face froze, and she was suddenly in a dilemma.
She looked inside and saw Xu's father and Zhou An.
His eyes lit up and he raised his voice and said, "Captain Zhou, look at your wife, she's so stingy."
"Are you the head of your family?"
Normally, if these words were spoken in other families, the man would have been angry.
Which man would want to hear others say that he is not the one in charge of the family?
But Zhou An didn't play by the rules. When he heard Aunt Yuan mention him, he slowly stood up and walked behind Xu Zhixia.
He gave a humble smile and said, "Sorry, my wife is the boss in my family."
Aunt Yuan was choked and couldn't speak for a moment.
He stamped his feet in anger and strode away with a sullen face.
"There are all kinds of people here, and they never get enough of taking advantage of others." Xu's mother grumbled dissatisfiedly.
Xu Zhixia hurriedly comforted them, and no one took this little episode to heart.
After dinner, Mr. Xu officially announced that he would be working as a teacher at school starting tomorrow.
Xu Zhixia knew about this before and was not surprised.
On the other hand, Xu's mother patted Xu's father in surprise and said, "Really? You hid such a big thing from me?"
Father Xu smiled and said nothing.
He was too embarrassed to tell Xu's mother before the matter was confirmed.
If it doesn't work...it would be so embarrassing.
But overall, this is good news worth celebrating. Mr. and Mrs. Xu have completely taken root on the island.
Just as everyone was thinking about how to celebrate, Father Xu suddenly said, "By the way, should we let Haohao go to school?"
As soon as the words fell, the scene became very quiet for a moment.
Haohao blinked his confused little eyes and pointed at himself.
Father Xu's expression softened, and he patted Haohao's head: "Our Haohao is a little genius."
Because Haohao is now taken care of by Xu's father and mother, Xu's father also took Haohao to school for a few days.
He quickly discovered Haohao's talent, but unlike Xu Zhixia, he felt that Haohao could learn more in this area.
Therefore, this matter was brought up at this time.
Xu Zhixia seemed to be lost in thought. If it were before, she would not have been qualified to take care of such matters.
But now she is Haohao's godmother, so it doesn't matter if she shows some concern for him, right?
If Jiang Hanzhi continued with his laissez-faire approach, Haohao might not even remember it by the time he was old enough to go to school.
However, this matter still needs to be discussed with Haohao's uncle.
Thinking of this, she said, "Let Zhou An and I go ask Uncle Haohao what he thinks."
Naturally, Xu's father and mother had no objection and agreed.
Because I had something to do, I didn't let Xu Zhixia and Zhou An clean up the dishes tonight.
The two of them took Haohao and walked towards the dormitory together.
The moonlight is pleasant and the breeze brings a gentle scent.
Xu Zhixia suddenly said, "Haohao, do you want to go to school?"
Haohao raised his little face, his face filled with confusion.
Xu Zhixia continued patiently: "It's just like when I took you to class before, but this time I won't be with you."
Haohao's little face wrinkled up, and he seemed to find it hard to accept: "I want to be with Xia Xia."
Xu Zhixia's heart softened and her brows softened.
She also knew that letting Haohao go to school now was a good thing for Haohao.
But Haohao is too young, still a child.
Besides, Haohao’s past experiences made her feel uneasy.
Xu Zhixia stopped, half-knelt in front of Haohao, and said soothingly: "It's not that I don't want Haohao anymore, I just send him to study during the day and pick him up at night."
After a pause, he asked, "Are you willing to go to school?"
A hint of hesitation flashed in Haohao's eyes, and after a moment he nodded firmly.
He likes those books and feels happy every time he learns new knowledge.
As long as his godparents don't want to abandon him, he can accept it.
Xu Zhixia was stunned for a moment, then smiled gently.
I touched Haohao's head and it felt very soft.
"Okay, then send Haohao to school."
Jiang Hanzhi lives in the dormitory most of the time, so Xu Zhixia and Zhou An brought Haohao here directly.
After explaining his purpose, Jiang Hanzhi readily agreed: "Going to school now? Sure."
"Tell me how much money you need later and I'll give it to you directly."
Xu Zhixia smiled and declined: "We are still Haohao's godparents, so we can still afford this little money."
Jiang Hanzhi waved his hand and said hurriedly: "That won't work. One thing is another."
"It's already troublesome for you to take care of Haohao, how can I have the nerve to ask you to pay for it again."
Seeing Jiang Hanzhi's persistence, Xu Zhixia's eyes flashed with helplessness.
Finally, I had to give in: "Okay, but you can't rush to pay for books and other things."
Jiang Hanzhi smiled playfully, not refusing, but... not agreeing either.
It was decided that little Haohao would go to school.
Although Xu's father could take him directly to school, Xu Zhixia decided to go with Zhou An for the sake of ceremony.
Zhou An had no objection and took the whole morning off.
The next day, the whole family came to the principal's office in a grand procession.
"If you don't know, you might think you are here to settle the score with me." After hearing the whole story, the principal said with a helpless smile.
There are many children going to school, but this is the first time that they have done so with such a big fanfare.
He straightened his expression and said, "It's past the first grade enrollment period now. You either have to wait until next year or transfer to another class."
In fact, he recommends the former because Haohao is too young.
Xu Zhixia said without hesitation: "Principal, can I join the class directly?"
