"Okay, if you want to try, then go ahead." It's a good thing that the little yellow-haired boy can handle it. If he can't, she can just do it herself.
After figuring this out, Ye Jin naturally felt relieved.
The business here has come to an end, and the next step is to arrange for my sister's schooling.
After finishing their work in the store in the evening, the two sisters prepared to go home, but Gu Yan was already waiting at the store door.
"Jinjin, are you exhausted again today?"
Gu Yan looked at Ye Jin with a distressed expression. He had already learned what happened today from the people below.
"It's okay once I get used to it. It's just that I get up too early every day and feel a little sleepy."
Ye Jin yawned as he spoke. He was really tired from going out early and coming back late these days.
"Did something happen to you today? Don't you want to tell me about it?"
"I want to solve this matter myself. If I can't solve it, I will bother you again."
"Is it necessary for us to be so distant?"
Gu Yan felt a little sad. He had always been by her side, but she didn't know his feelings.
If it wasn't for his love, there would be no need for him to run to the mountains every day and work so hard every day, just to have the whole family together and eat a bowl of hot rice with them. This is the only hope in life.
"This isn't a feeling of unfamiliarity. This is me wanting to become stronger. I've relied on you for too many things, and I can't do that any longer."
What if it becomes a habit, and she gets used to bothering Gu Yan with everything in the future instead of thinking about solving the problems herself? What should she do if Gu Yan is gone one day?
Because she knows the fickleness of human nature, she cannot rely too much on him.
Gu Yan lowered his head and said nothing. The setting sun stretched their shadows very long. The sun slowly set and the surroundings became a silent night.
There was a rustling sound when stepping on the dead leaves, and the chirping of insects could be heard from time to time. When no one spoke, everything around became even quieter.
Ye Wei held her sister's hand tightly. She was used to going back talking and laughing, but suddenly everyone was silent, and she felt inexplicably panicked.
Realizing that she might have scared her sister, Ye Jin pursed her lips, moved her cheeks, and then calmed herself down.
"Weiwei, I won't go to the store tomorrow."
"Sister, the store is so busy, is there something else you don't want to do?"
"I'd like to go to town and ask around to find a suitable school for you. Do you want to start in sixth grade, or go straight to first grade?"
Ye Wei lowered her head and wrung her hands. She had originally thought that she could still be busy with her sister for a while, but she didn't expect to have to go to school so soon.
She is already past the age of attending primary school, and now she is squeezed together with a group of primary school students. Although this can help her lay a better foundation, she will also be laughed at.
Going directly to junior high school is stressful, but it is also a motivation. If she can catch up quickly, she can save a year.
"Sister, I've thought about it and decided to start from the first grade. I don't want to hang out with a bunch of little brats, and I don't have that much time to waste."
Ye Wei raised her head, her bright eyes sparkling in the night.
Seeing that his sister did not reject his proposal, Ye Jin finally felt relieved.
"It's good that you have this idea. Sister respects your choice."
"The best middle school in Qingshan Town is Qingshan No. 1 Middle School. Although Weiwei hasn't been to school for a long time, she's very smart. If she can find a good teacher, I believe she'll be able to catch up with her learning ability."
Gu Yan dropped the previous topic and took the initiative to continue the conversation.
Ye Jin nodded in the night. She knew that Qingshan No. 1 Middle School was the best, but the best school also meant the hardest to get in.
She has now bought some land and opened a breakfast shop, and has some spare money on hand, but it is not enough for her to reach Qingshan No. 1 Middle School.
"I'd like to, but I don't have the ability. I wouldn't even be able to get Weiwei into Qingshan No. 1 Middle School, let alone Qingshan No. 2 Middle School."
Ye Jin sighed heavily. Sometimes money cannot solve all problems, but without money it will be even more difficult to move forward.
No matter what the result is, she will give it a try.
"I'll go with you tomorrow. Don't be so quick to reject me. One more person means more strength."
Gu Yan wanted to say that he knew a teacher in Qingshan No. 1 Middle School, but the transfer was not the teacher's responsibility. The most the teacher could do was to introduce them to the principal of Qingshan No. 1 Middle School. As for whether Ye Jin could get the principal in his hands, that depended on his ability.
Since it concerns his sister's future, Ye Jin doesn't dare to act stubbornly.
Secretly, she also wanted her sister to go to Qingshan No. 1 Middle School, which not only had a junior high school but also a high school. The teaching quality was the best in the entire Qingshan Town, and most importantly, it was very close to her breakfast shop.
My sister can have all three meals a day in the store. They are delicious and nutritious, and I guarantee she will stay healthy and fit after studying here for a few years.
Ye Jin held her sister's skinny little hand. This girl had lived a very hard life over the years. She was not well fed and clothed, and was abused by her adoptive parents. She was even forced to get married at a very young age.
Fortunately, I found her, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Okay, I'll trouble you then."
Seeing that Ye Jin was willing to let him help, Gu Yan felt better.
He hummed a little tune along the way, and the originally tense atmosphere became lively, and Ye Wei's anxious heart also relaxed.
When the three of them returned home, grandma had already cooked and was squatting on the floor washing vegetables. When she saw them come back, she looked up and smiled.
"Are you back? Just sit there. Grandma will make you something delicious today."
The old lady’s favorite life is to have a house full of children and grandchildren. At her age, she is very happy to have two granddaughters by her side to enjoy the happiness of family.
"No, I want to help grandma with the work. Grandma can't think I'm troublesome."
Ye Jin took off his coat and came over to help. Gu Yan was not idle either. He saw that there was not much firewood left in the pile, so he quickly chopped a large pile of firewood.
Ye Wei took the initiative to set the table, and the whole family crowded into the kitchen, making the originally spacious kitchen seem crowded.
Ye Jin cleaned the pot and started cooking. After more than ten minutes, four dishes and one soup were ready.
Gu Yan brought the hot dishes to the table, and Ye Wei quickly served a large bowl of rice to everyone.
The whole family sits together, and every day is like Chinese New Year, and we can have a reunion dinner every day.
After dinner, Gu Yan took the initiative to clean up the dishes, and Ye Wei wiped the table and swept the floor.
She was too young to do heavy work, but she never neglected the small things within her ability.
After Gu Yan finished cleaning up, he went to take a shower. He was tired after a whole day and was sweating all over. He smelled of sweat. Fortunately, Ye Jin didn't dislike him.
Gu Yan was not used to turning on the light when taking a shower, so he filled a bucket with hot water and closed the bathroom door.
He often went hunting in the mountains, and developed a pair of night vision, which allowed him to see the location of things even in the dark.
He took off his shirt, revealing his strong muscles, and his long legs looked even longer under the bright moonlight.
