"Fang Xiang, school is about to start, you have to study, okay?" Ling Hancheng looked at Fang Xiang seriously and said, "As long as you have a little time, you can't slack off!"
As the principal and teacher, Ling Hancheng really wants to teach Fang Xiang well.
Fang Xiang is the same age as the twins, so he should have been in junior high school when school started again this year.
Fang Xiang's grades are average in the class, a little below average.
But there's nothing we can do about it. After all, I miss classes so often that it's not easy to maintain this level of grades.
This score is actually not a big problem for junior high school entrance exam.
But the Fang family insisted that he stay a grade and study for another year, and Ling Hancheng had no choice.
The teachers at school all thought that it was probably Hu Xianghua's idea, and the purpose was to allow Fang Xiang to work for one more year. After all, he had to go to the town to attend junior high school and to the county town for high school.
Only primary school students can stay at home.
Fang Xiang raised his head and looked at him.
Ling Hancheng continued, "These days, if you stay home and farm, there's definitely no future for you. At best, you'll just have enough to eat and sleep! You have to think carefully about whether you want to make a name for yourself or just get by!"
Although they are farmers, it is unlikely that they can get rich by just growing the land. They can only barely make ends meet and not go hungry.
Now, all the able-bodied men in Huaihe Village who have some connections have gone out to work, simply because there are more opportunities outside.
But to put it bluntly, those are all physical work.
The best way to leave the village now is to go to college. Once you graduate from college, there will be no shortage of jobs, and some of them are stable jobs.
In a situation like Fang Xiang's, Ling Hancheng and Chu Yuefang both felt that it would be best for him to leave Huaihe Village in the future.
Although fate is not fair to everyone, we should not give in easily.
As long as you work hard, there is always a way out of your fate.
Fang Xiang looked at Ling Hancheng for a long time before he replied:
"But all my books were... thrown away by my aunt..."
Chu Yuefang's eyes widened immediately: "When did this happen?"
"Just... not long ago..."
In fact, what Fang Xiang said was already concealed.
Fang Xiang's books were actually thrown into the stove and burned by Hu Xianghua not long ago.
That day, Hu Xianghua asked Fang Xiang to cook. He was looking at the pot while reading a book. When Hu Xianghua saw this, she snatched the book from him and threw it into the stove.
Fang Xiang watched helplessly as his book turned to ashes.
Ling Hancheng gritted his teeth and said, "This is crazy! They even dare to burn children's books!"
Old Mrs. Ling's expression looked even more serious.
Ling Sen hurriedly said, "Don't be sad. If that's the case, I'll give you my book. I don't have any... my second brother and I can just read one!"
Chu Yuefang glared at him when she heard this: "What you mean is that you don't read books anyway!"
Ling Sen smiled in a flattering manner.
"Keep your own books. Don't let bad grades later give you an excuse," Ling Hancheng said. "Fang Xiang, I'll give you my books. There's a lot of stuff written in them. It might be useful if you read more. You have to go to junior high school next year, okay?"
Fang Xiang's eyes turned red when he heard Ling Hancheng's words.
"Thank you, thank you Teacher Ling..."
Ling Sen couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable when he saw this.
He barely passed the junior high school entrance exam and didn't really want to go, but Fang Xiang's family wouldn't let him go.
Compared to this, Ling Sen felt that he was not pitiful at all...
