Before Yang's father could finish speaking, Yang's mother interrupted, "That's right, Xuechang, I was just about to tell you about this. Wangwang is already in first grade. Your third sister said that the teaching quality of the school in our small county is not good, and the teachers are not good enough. This time, Wangwang failed both Chinese and math in the final exams. If this continues, how will he get into university?"
Yang Xuechang and Duan Meishan exchanged a glance, somewhat amused and exasperated.
Yang's mother's thought process is truly something else.
"Mom, Wangwang failed Chinese and math because his foundation is weak. The teaching pace in schools in the capital is fast, and Wangwang is even more unable to keep up after transferring schools."
Yang's mother insisted on her opinion: "Impossible! Whether a child learns well or not depends entirely on how well the teacher teaches! I saw that Tian Tian got full marks in every subject in the final exam. Wang Wang is so smart, he will definitely do well in the exam after transferring to school in the capital! You should think of a way to let Wang Wang and Tian Tian go to the same school."
"Tian Tian is good at studying because she is self-disciplined. Have you ever seen Tian Tian watching TV all day and going out to play? Doesn't she do her winter vacation homework first every day before resting? When Wang Wang came to my house, he didn't bring his schoolbag. I personally gave him some practice questions, but he didn't do a single one. All he does is eat, drink, and sleep all day, or he just sits in front of the TV all day. How can he possibly get high scores with this kind of attitude towards studying?"
Yang Xuechang's mother wouldn't listen to a word he said.
She insists that Wangwang is intelligent, but his lack of good teachers has hindered his development.
How could her eldest grandson be inferior to a mere little girl like Tian Tian?
In fact, Wangwang's learning level is not even comparable to that of two-and-a-half-year-old Ruirui.
"Xuechang, you don't need to tell me these things. I already know that boys need to study and go to good schools. You need to find a way to get Wangwang to study in the capital."
Yang Xuechang said, "I'm sorry, Mom, I can't do what you asked."
"What? You're a great scientist with such a wide network of connections, and you can't even get something as simple as transferring Wangwang's school registration?"
Yang's mother didn't believe it and glared fiercely at Duan Meishan.
She believed that her daughter-in-law had instigated her son.
Yang Xuechang grasped Duan Meishan's hand, his intention to protect his wife was very clear.
“Dad, Mom, I’ve been asking about transferring my school registration lately, but the capital city is very strict about household registration now. If you want your child to attend a school in the capital city, your parents must have local household registration and local jobs. If you can’t provide proof, you can’t study in the capital city.”
Upon hearing this, Yang's father advised Yang's mother, "I told you this would be difficult. It's a policy issue. It's not that Xuechang isn't trying. You should talk to Lili about bringing Wangwang back. It doesn't matter where he goes to school. Xuechang went to the countryside for seven or eight years without any teachers, and he still got into university."
Yang's mother had already boasted to Yang Xueli that she would definitely solve Wangwang's schooling problem this time.
Now she has a difficult problem to solve. How can she explain it to her daughter?
Thinking back to the boasts I made back then, it's really embarrassing!
"Xuechang, if all else fails, you can move Tiantian's household registration out first and let Wangwang move in."
As soon as Yang's mother said this, Yang's father shouted sternly, "What nonsense are you spouting!"
Duan Meishan and Yang Xuechang both looked rather unwell.
She actually thought of making them transfer their biological daughter's household registration out of the city!
Ignoring her husband's pleas and disregarding their expressions, Yang's mother said:
"This is the only way! Wangwang is a boy, he must study. Tiantian is a girl, she can just study casually and learn a few words, that's enough. Do you really expect her to go to university? In my opinion, girls who go to university all go astray!"
"Stop talking!" Mr. Yang was so angry that he was about to hit Mrs. Yang.
Yang Xuechang had been used to his mother's bizarre remarks about valuing sons over daughters since he was a child, so he was no longer surprised.
Although he was the one who benefited, he did not agree with Yang's mother's point of view.
In fact, his three older sisters were also good students, and if they hadn't been forced to drop out of school by their mother, they would have had the opportunity to go to university.
Therefore, he felt guilty towards his three older sisters and would do his best to help them.
Especially the third sister, Yang Xueli, who was strong-willed from a young age, and her studies were no worse than Yang Xuechang's.
Because she herself couldn't get an education, she was determined to make Wangwang stand out from the crowd.

Yang Xuechang understood his third sister's feelings. He really wanted to help, but there were policies in place, and he couldn't solve the problem just by relying on his connections.
It's no wonder Yang Xuechang was angry when his mother said such biased things!
"Mom, how many girls do you know who are in college?"
Duan Meishan suddenly spoke up.
Yang's mother's words just now clearly expressed her dissatisfaction with her.
Yang's mother was speechless for a moment.
"Among the girls you know who have gone to university, the only ones are me and Jingya from across the hall, right?"
Unlike her usual gentle and compliant self, Duan Meishan spoke with a sharp edge, "Do you mean that Jingya and I turned bad because we went to university? Can you tell me specifically how we turned bad? If you make sense, I will definitely change."
Faced with Duan Meishan's cold expression, Yang's mother was speechless.
In front of Yang Xuechang, she was asked to criticize her daughter-in-law.
