Chapter 392 The Coward's Black Moonlight Witch 23
After returning to the village, He Baifeng found Chu Bojian again and said with a smile, "Xiao Chu, I heard that you were admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in the county. Grandma He wants you to take care of Niuniu at school."
Worried that Chu Bojian would disagree, she added, "Don't worry, Granny He will still give you ten yuan a day."
But Chu Bojian didn't dare to accept the money. He coughed and said, "Grandma He, Niuniu and I are from the same village and grew up together. It's my duty to take care of her. Forget the money."
He Baifeng was stunned for a moment, as if she had not expected Chu Bojian to be so nice. It seemed that after a summer vacation, Chu Bojian had grown up.
She patted Chu Bojian's shoulder and said with a smile, "Grandma He has rented a house next to the No. 1 Middle School in the county. If you don't mind, you can come and live with us. Grandma He will take care of your meals."
Chu Bojian's eyes lit up, "Okay, thank you, Grandma He."
Even though that silly girl always takes risks, I have to admit, she's pretty awesome. If I could follow her, I'd feel incredibly safe.
…
On August 30th, He Baifeng started packing her luggage early, preparing to leave for the county town. Chu Bojian also accompanied her.
He Baifeng rented a private house that was arranged in a straight line with three rooms lined up in sequence. At the deepest part was a small bathroom, but there was no independent kitchen space.
Originally, He Baifeng planned to convert the extra room into a kitchen, but with the addition of Chu Bojian, this plan had to be temporarily shelved.
So she placed a wooden board under the eaves and used it as a temporary cooking area.
The entrance to the house is a small door and the windows are equally small, making the indoor light a little dim.
But He Baifeng didn't mind it because all the houses on this street looked like this.
Every morning, this place is bustling with activity. Many farmers carry fresh vegetables here to sell. The residents of the county jokingly call this place "Farmers Street".
He Baifeng hired a tricycle and took her luggage from the town to the county seat.
The streets were crowded with people, and the tricycle couldn't get through. He Baifeng shouted to the driver, "Old Wu, just stop at the next intersection. We can move the things over ourselves."
Old Wu looked rough, but was easy to talk to. He nodded and said, "Okay."
After Old Wu parked the car safely, He Baifeng nimbly jumped out and said with a smile, "I have a lot of luggage, so I'll have to trouble you to wait a moment."
Old Wu nodded and agreed: "No problem, go ahead, I'll help you look after your things."
He Baifeng carried a big bag and walked into the bustling Nongmin Street, while Shen Xinran followed behind, holding the sleeping Dengbao.
As He Baifeng opened the door with the key, a woman with simple clothes and gray hair walked out from the next door, "This is your granddaughter!"
He Baifeng smiled and nodded, then turned to Shen Xinran, "Niuniu, this is Granny Huang. The house we live in now is rented from her family."
Shen Xinran gave Granny Huang a sweet smile, "Good morning, Granny Huang."
The tunes of Peking Opera came from the next house, standing out even in the busy street.
Shen Xinran looked inside curiously and found a TV. Although it was not as big as the one in the Tan family's house, it should not be cheap.
Granny Huang noticed Shen Xinran's gaze and invited her with a smile: "Would you like to come in and watch TV? Granny lives alone, and you can chat with her."
Shen Xinran turned to look at He Baifeng, a hint of expectation in his eyes.
He Baifeng nodded gently and said gently: "Go, but listen to Grandma Huang."
When Chu Bojian came over alone carrying three large bags, he saw Shen Xinran sitting in the living room of Grandma Huang's house, staring at the TV intently.
The TV was playing a children's channel, with a cheerful song: "Little carp, what a magical look, jumping around and rolling around, covered in mud..."
Chu Bojian put his luggage in the house that He Baifeng rented, muttering softly, "How childish! You're already so old, and you're still watching cartoons."
But when he passed by Huang Xiuqing's house, he couldn't help but glance at the TV...
He Baifeng originally planned to personally send Shen Xinran to school for the start of the semester, but she suddenly received a religious ceremony the night before.
Chu Bojian thought that he also wanted to go, so he took the initiative to apply and sent Shen Xinran to register.
At the gate of the county’s No. 1 Middle School, there was a bustling crowd of people and it was very lively.
Chu Bojian stood at the school gate, but was hesitant to step in. Who could tell him what those floating figures in the air were?
Just then, two students walked past him and chatted: "Have you heard that our school used to be a mass grave?"
Another student asked curiously. "Really?"
The student smiled and replied, "Of course. It is said that the Education Bureau chose to build the school here because the land price is cheap."
The conversation between the two made Chu Bojian feel even more depressed. Ahhhh, who can come and save him?
Shen Xinran followed from behind and saw Chu Bojian's pale face and trembling body, so he asked, "Are you scared?"
Chu Bojian shook his head and said, "No."
Shen Xinran asked again: "Then why are your eyes red?"
Chu Bojian quickly wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes and forced a smile, "I'm so touched. I, a poor student, was able to get into such a good high school."
I don’t know if it’s too late to drop out of school now.
Although Shen Xinran didn't understand Chu Bojian's emotions, she chose to respect them. So, she patted Chu Bojian on the shoulder and said, "Then you continue to be moved. I'll go in first."
Seeing Shen Xinran leave as soon as she said she would, Chu Bojian hurriedly stepped forward, took her arm, and said with a flattering smile: "Let's go together!"
Shen Xinran wanted to pull her arm back, but Chu Bojian held it tightly. She could only frown and say, "Stay away from me. It's a bit hot."
Chu Bojian quickly said, "I'll treat you to a popsicle later."
Shen Xinran nodded, "Then I want the red date flavor."
There are four pieces of paper posted on the wall of the teaching building. This is the class list. Many students and parents are standing here to check it.
When Chu Bojian saw it, his heart was pounding. He was praying silently in his heart that he and Shanu would be assigned to the same class!
He opened his eyes and found his and Tan Shi's names on the list of Class 4. The joy he felt even surpassed his excitement of getting into high school.
Chu Bojian turned around excitedly and laughed: "Silly girl, we are in the same class!"
When Shen Xinran heard the word "silly girl", her brows furrowed slightly. She decided that she would make another note about Chu Boyan in her little notebook after returning home.
Chu Bojian directly took Shen Xinran's hand and walked upstairs, "I'll take you to the classroom!"
There were too many ghosts on the playground and he couldn't stay there for even a minute.
