After all, for so many years, apart from those families who were good to their daughters, no family in their village could let their granddaughter go to school.
I had previously boasted about my next-door neighbor's granddaughter. Although this incident changed everyone's opinion of their daughter, no one suggested sending the child to school.
After all, the idea of favoring boys over girls is deeply rooted in their minds. It is already remarkable that they can make such a change. How could they even think of sending their children to school?
Should they go to school for a few years and then move in with their in-laws when they start earning money? Wouldn't that mean their family would be destitute? So no one mentioned this matter.
But now that Fourth Grandma had said it, everyone in their group had some thoughts in their minds. Just like he said, what if one of the girls could go to college?
They have to try. If they reject others without even trying, then everything will be over. What if their grandson is not promising? Then they will have to rely on the girls in the family.
Besides, if a girl has a promising future, she can also help the family. She is just like the little grandson of the Xia family. Look at how comfortable the Xia family lives.
So several families decided to send their daughters there when school started. Even if they didn't have great prospects, they could still learn for two years and maybe find a job in the town.
Now the country does not encourage getting married at the age of 18, so after they finish their studies and find a job, they can wait a few years before getting married.
After all, they have formal jobs and don't have to worry about not having a partner. When the time comes, there will definitely be many people coming to their homes to propose marriage, and they can choose carefully.
It would be best if one of them has a formal job, so that both of them have formal jobs and can help the family together.
It's also a good idea to wait until you're in your 20s to find a partner, so you can help with housework for a few more years. Otherwise, if you let them stay at home and get married at 18, it's just a matter of spending a bride price.
It's better than this. They can provide more help, their family is capable, and I have sent them to school and got them a good job. They still remember my kindness.
They are willing to help their families and are not forced by their families, so many people have secret ideas in their hearts.
By September this year, when the number of students in the school was calculated, many people sent their girls there, and those girls who got the opportunity to go to school were also very nervous.
But I am also very happy that they seized this opportunity. Some of them failed to get into university, but they also went to a technical college and were assigned jobs after graduation.
They study very hard, wanting to prove something to their families and let their families see that girls' achievements are no worse than boys'.
When they took the first exam and beat the boys, many people in the village were waiting and watching, and they had also made a decision. After all, it seemed that girls were not necessarily worse than boys.
The family’s money has almost been used up in recent years, so why not send them to school and give it a try? What if a golden phoenix emerges?
As a result, more and more girls have the opportunity to receive education, and they no longer have to envy other girls in the village who can go to school.
But Xia Jin, who was sitting in the car, didn't know about these things yet. She just looked at the many people following her from behind, and felt a little reluctant.
After all, her grandfather and father have not returned yet, and she has been to the village several times and can't recognize everyone. When she gets off the car and they see her and want to come up to talk to her, she won't know what to say.
If I don't say hello to them, who knows what will be spread among those petty people.
As she was getting closer and closer to Xia Xia, she sighed silently in her heart. She could only take one step at a time. Maybe there was someone she knew among them.
Maybe they just wanted to see whose family was driving the car back and didn't want to go up and talk to them, so they could escape danger that way.
The car drove to the door of Xia's house. The two men got out first and moved the TV out of the trunk. Xia Jin also got out behind them.
But this time he was really wrong. Originally, they didn't want to come over, but when they saw that they were holding a black thing in their hands, they wanted to come over and take a look.
They wanted to come and see him and see what he bought for the family. It was so big that he had to use a car to deliver it. How could they not be curious?
"Old Xia's granddaughter, I'm from Teacher Qiangtou's family. You can just call me grandma. What are you holding in your hands? It looks heavy."
"Although we saw your car at the entrance of the village, we were wondering whose capable person had returned. It turns out it's you who's back. But where are your grandfather and the others?"
"And this guy next to you, why haven't I seen him before? Please introduce Iron Head Blanket to me so I can get to know him."
Xia Jin smiled awkwardly and said, "The man next to you grandparents is my boyfriend. He came back with me to take a look."
"My grandpa and his family are back too, but they're a little slow on the bus. This bus is too small to accommodate everyone."
"If it weren't for this TV, I would have taken the bus back with them, but that's not right. Someone has to go with them."
The people around only heard the words "boyfriend" and "television". Grandma trembled and said:
"This really is a TV. I've lived so long and never seen one. I thought I'd die before I could see one, but I didn't expect to see one here."
"Your grandfather is so lucky to have a TV. It would be great if we had a child as promising as you. We wouldn't have to be like you, but we could just afford a TV."
Xia Jin smiled and said, "When my grandfather and the others come back and the TV is installed, you can come and watch it. We are all from the village, after all."
"Ah, I'm not that promising. Your kids might grow up to be even more capable than me."
Some people's attention was still on Gu Jingmo. They said:
"Xiao Jin, this boyfriend is really good-looking and strong. He's someone who can protect others."
"Yes, she looks very promising. I was originally thinking that if she didn't have a boyfriend, we would introduce her to someone. But now, she has one."
"Oh, Grandma Dashan, what are you talking about? Can the person we introduce to you be a good match for the granddaughter of the old Xia family? You are really joking. We dare not even think about such a thing."
