Stone Primary School was jointly built by several nearby villages, but due to limited funding and years of neglect, it has always been dilapidated.
The entire primary school has six classes and four teachers. Whenever a class is not taught by a teacher, it will be turned into a self-study period.
In that era, the preference for sons over daughters was still very serious. Many parents, like Huang Ling, believed that girls would get married when they grew up, so they generally did not allow them to study. Otherwise, they would let girls study until the third grade, so that they could learn a few words, and then drop out of school to work at home. When they were fifteen or sixteen years old, they would go out to work, or they would get married at a young age.
Lu Siqiao vowed to study hard and change her destiny through knowledge.
"Big brother, it's you!" She saw a boy getting out of the truck in front of her; it was Cheng Ze, the one who had given her blood before.
Cheng Ze didn't recognize her, but he did recognize Third Master Lu, who had helped carry the table.
"Little sister, are you feeling better?" Cheng Ze, who was about eleven years old, was wearing a white shirt and casual pants. He looked sunny and energetic with a warm smile. He patted Lu Siqiao's head and asked with concern.
Lu Siqiao's eyes lit up as she looked up and said, "Much better. Big brother, my grandpa said that thanks to you, otherwise, Qiaowa would be dead!"
Cheng Ze said with relief, "That's because you've met a good grandfather. You should study hard and take good care of your grandfather when you grow up."
Lu Siqiao nodded vigorously.
Just then, an old man with a cane walked over, his face kind. The teachers of Shitou Elementary School surrounded him and expressed their gratitude.
Lu Siqiao then learned that the old man was Cheng Ze's maternal grandfather, He Zhangzhi, and a respected veteran of the War of Resistance against Japan.
“My grandfather is not in good health. He was at the hospital that day and happened to run into you.” Cheng Ze told Lu Siqiao, “There are very few people with Rh blood type. Try to avoid getting injured in the future and take good care of yourself.”
Lu Siqiao readily agreed.
In her previous life, she never cared about her blood type until her death, but she clearly remembered that Lu Sirou and her sister had type A blood, which they inherited from Huang Ling. Could it be that Lu Mingyuan has type Rh blood?
Before she could think, Cheng Ze helped He Zhangzhi walk over.
Lu Siqiao hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, her sensible and well-behaved manner earning He Zhangzhi's repeated nods.
"Grandpa He, where do you feel unwell?" Lu Siqiao asked after sitting down.
He Zhangzhi called Cheng Ze to help carry the desk, and smiled lovingly at her: "Grandpa is very ill and may leave this world soon. My poor Cheng Ze, he will be all alone again."
Lu Siqiao's heart skipped a beat, and she asked with concern, "Grandpa, is your illness very serious? Does your older brother know?"
“Oh, it’s because Grandpa has a tumor in his brain. The doctor said there’s no way to operate.” He Zhangzhi said, as if he had seen through life and death. “The only person I can’t let go of is Aze. His mother died early, and his father is gone. Oh, Qiaowa’er, you don’t understand.”
Lu Siqiao, of course, didn't understand why good people always die young while bad people cause harm for thousands of years.
Most importantly, Cheng Ze must be devastated by He Zhangzhi's death.
Since she was able to save herself and change the fate of Master Lu and his son after her rebirth, she could naturally save He Zhangzhi as well.
After making an excuse to run away, she poured the remaining strengthening potion into an enamel cup and hurriedly brought it to He Zhangzhi, saying, "Grandpa, this is water with added sugar. It's sweet and delicious. You should try it."
He Zhangzhi said kindly, "Qiaowa'er, you are a filial son." He picked up the cup, took a sip, and found it to be sweet and tasted good. He then drank the whole cup of water.
Lu Siqiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, Cheng Ze led her on a tour of the classroom. Lu Siqiao was captivated by the new desk that exuded the fresh scent of wood.
"Qiaowa'er, let's make a promise. You study hard, and we'll meet again at Beijing University in the future," Cheng Ze encouraged her.
Lu Siqiao nodded emphatically: "Big brother, I will definitely get into Beijing University."
Little did they know that it was precisely this sentence that brought about a dramatic change in their future.
After seeing them off, Lu Siqiao asked Lu Mingfeng to take her to town to buy books. She secretly vowed to get into Beijing University and see Cheng Ze again.
After Cheng Ze took He Zhangzhi away from Shitou Elementary School, he went straight to a private hospital, where a team of experts who had been waiting took He Zhangzhi to the observation room.
Cheng Ze waited anxiously outside the door, secretly praying that his grandfather's illness wouldn't flare up, that he could stay by his side a little longer, just a little longer...
Half an hour later, the doctors wheeled He Zhangzhi out. The lead expert asked Cheng Ze, "It's strange that the hematoma in Old He's brain has suddenly shrunk. Based on this symptom, it might disappear after a while. Have you seen any other doctors?"
Cheng Ze asked in surprise, "I didn't see anyone else for treatment, could you have made a mistake?"
"I can see it clearly. A few days ago, the hematoma was 15 centimeters, but today it's only 6 centimeters. It's a miracle. I've never seen anything like it before," the expert explained.
Cheng Ze couldn't explain it either.
However, no one was happier than my grandfather when his illness improved.
He Zhangzhi was also very happy. He took out a small paper star from his pocket, put it in Cheng Ze's hand, and said with a smile, "Qiaowa is right. Good deeds are rewarded. The good deeds you have done have brought blessings to your grandfather."
These are stars that Lu Siqiao folded from chocolate wrappers. Before leaving, she gave one to He Zhangzhi and said she would pray for him, wishing him good health, peace, and happiness.
Cheng Ze held the star in his hand, a warm and doting smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
He also wanted a sister as understanding as her.
The days passed slowly, and Lu Siqiao's first day of school arrived.
Luo Xiaoxue specially escorted her to school, and on the way they also encountered Lu Zhenxing and his sister from the third branch of the family. They stared at Lu Siqiao with hostility.
Ever since Lu Siqiao became the daughter of the first wife, she has not only hoarded all the good things, but also learned to eat alone. Lu Zhenxing and his sister can't stand her no matter what. If it weren't for Luo Xiaoxue with them, they would definitely have beaten her up.
"Hmph, a seven-year-old child, still acting like a baby who hasn't been weaned, it's laughable, aren't you ashamed!"
Lu Zhenxing made a face and mocked.
Lu Siqiao had long disliked him and wanted to teach him a lesson, so she told Luo Xiaoxue to go back first.
Luo Xiaoxue smiled and said to Lu Siqiao, "It's your first day today, so Mom will see you off."
They didn't leave until they dropped her off at the elementary school gate.
When Lu Siqiao went home for lunch after class, she was blocked by Lu Zhenxing and his sister.
"You good-for-nothing, how dare you disobey me! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"
Lu Zhenxing grabbed Lu Siqiao's hair, his fat hand about to hit her face.
Lu Xiaowan, standing to the side, was still cheering and applauding.
Lu Siqiao's face was tense as she bit down hard on Lu Zhenxing's wrist, leaving a large tooth mark!
While he was in pain, I took off running!
Lu Xiaowan lunged forward to grab her, but Lu Siqiao suddenly kicked her in the shin, tripping her to the ground, and then ran away!
"Lu Siqiao, you'll remember this!"
The brother and sister were so angry they screamed!
