"Are they all studying?"
Upon hearing this question, Chu Yuefang nodded decisively:
"Children of this age must study. If they don't study, there's nothing else to do, so they'll just play around all day."
It doesn’t mean that every child has to be particularly good at studying, but firstly, literacy is very important. Secondly, the child can’t do any work, and if he doesn’t study, he will definitely have no status and no work to do.
If you stay at home all day with nothing to do, you won't necessarily get into much trouble.
So no matter how you look at it, studying is essential.
Chu Yuefang suddenly remembered as she spoke:
"You just moved here. Where does your child go to school?"
Before she could even ask, Chu Yuefang actually asked this first. Gu Jinzhi immediately said, "I was just about to ask Sister Yuefang. I want Mingze to go to our center. Village Chief Yao asked me to ask Sister Yuefang and Vice Principal Ling if my child can go to study there now."
This is a very important matter for Gu Jinzhi.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have come here in such a hurry. Chu Yuefang suddenly realized.
"Oh, so that's how it is. That's not a big problem then," Chu Yuefang said with a smile. "I'll talk to Hancheng when he comes back and give Mingze a test to see how he does. Then we'll decide which class to put him in."
Their rural primary school is not that strict. Anyone who wants to study can go there regardless of age.
However, the grade division is not based on age.
Take a simple test to find out what level of knowledge you are at, so that you can be assigned to the corresponding class and not fall behind.
“Really, thank you so much!”
Gu Jinzhi didn't expect things to go so smoothly. She was still thinking about how to start the conversation.
I didn't expect that it could be done in such a short time.
Chu Yuefang couldn't help but laugh when she saw Gu Jinzhi's obvious excitement: "We don't have so many rules in our country primary school. It's a good thing that you are willing to go to school. Don't worry!"
Many families still think that their children will have to make a living by farming in the future, so it doesn’t matter whether they can read or not, and going to any school is just a waste of time.
If it weren't for the fact that the college entrance examination has been resumed and that if you get into university you can be assigned a good job, there would be a little more people sending their children to school with this idea in mind.
Otherwise, we probably won’t be able to recruit many students.
In this case, being willing to study is certainly a good thing.
Gu Jinzhi still opened the bundle in her hand: "This is the skirt I want to give to you, Sister Yuefang. I bought it in the county town before. After seeing Sister Yuefang, I felt that this skirt is very suitable for you. Please accept it!"
Before, Gu Jinzhi wanted to use the skirt to please Chu Yuefang before bringing up the matter of Gu Mingze going to school, but now that Chu Yuefang has taken the initiative to solve it, the meaning of the skirt now becomes a token of gratitude.
Gu Jinzhi really gave this skirt to Chu Yuefang willingly.
Chu Yuefang is not stupid, in fact, she is very smart. It is obvious to her that she understands this.
As a neighbor, Gu Jinzhi had sent snacks before, and now she sent a skirt... It was self-evident why.
Chu Yuefang didn't think there was anything wrong with Gu Jinzhi's behavior. After all, she loved her son deeply.
But there was no way she would accept something like this.
Chu Yuefang waved her hand and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but I definitely can't accept this thing. Please wrap it up quickly!"
"Sister Yuefang, I'm not giving this to you for any other reason, it's just a token of my appreciation, and it's not something particularly expensive, so just accept it!"
Gu Jinzhi now sincerely hopes that Chu Yuefang can accept it, otherwise she really doesn't know how to express her gratitude.
"No, I definitely won't accept anything. Just take it back," Chu Yuefang said with a smile. "We'll all be neighbors from now on. As the saying goes, a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative. We're all friends, so there's no need to give anything as a gift. It would just make things feel awkward."
Chu Yuefang insisted on not accepting it, and Gu Jinzhi had no choice but to put the skirt away.
"This is so... thank you so much!"
The "tug of war" outside came to an end. At this time in the house, Gu Mingze's entire attention was attracted by Xiao Linglong.
"So cute..."
Gu Mingze couldn't help but stare at the little girl from the Ling family who looked like a sunflower in a beige dress.
He had seen dolls from other families when he lived in the county town, but none of them were so white, soft, and cute.
In his impression, rural children, especially girls, are all dark and thin, just like the little girl from the Xu family whom he had just met, who is not good-looking.
But the little girl from the Ling family completely overturned his view.
It’s so cute and beautiful!
Seeing Gu Mingze, Xiao Linglong was also a little curious: "Brother, are you new here? I haven't seen you before. What's your name?"
Gu Mingze was a little excited and said quickly, "I came here with my mother. My name is Gu Mingze. I'm seven years old. You can call me Brother Mingze!"
Xiao Linglong took the opportunity to shout, "Hello, Brother Mingze."
Ling Li and Ling Xiaowu in the room felt their bodies stiffen instantly.
How come their sister suddenly has a brother!
Ling Mu and the twins have gone out, and Ling Li is now a little panicked.
The three brothers are out. If they come back and find out that their sister has "recognized" a brother, will they strangle him and Xiaowu to death?
Thinking of this, Ling Li quickly changed his position and resolutely refused to allow Gu Mingze, a strange boy, to get too close to their sister.
Gu Mingze was just about to move forward and hold the hand of this lovely girl to show his friendliness, but before he could get close, he was stopped by Ling Li.
"I want to talk to my sister." Gu Mingze hurriedly explained. He was not a bad person, so why should they stop him?
Ling Li: "We can talk right here, my sister has very good ears!"
What he meant was that there was no problem with Xiao Linglong's hearing, and even if Gu Mingze stood at the door and spoke, Xiao Linglong would still be able to hear it.
Besides...this guy is so shameless!
She actually called him sister directly!
Please!
The five brothers are Xiao Linglong's older brothers, and it is impossible for others to occupy this position.
Don't try to take advantage!
After saying this, Ling Li looked at Ling Xiaowu who was standing beside him.
Ling Xiaowu was still a little confused.
What to do now?
Ling Li: “…”
Little Linglong tilted his head and looked at his brother Li Zi, then at the new brother.
"Brother Li Zi..."
Before she could finish her words, she heard her mother's voice outside.
"Long'er, Brother Long Sheng is here to see you, come out quickly!"
Brother Long Sheng is hungry...
Xiao Linglong suddenly ignored everyone and her eyes became bright in an instant.
No one else is important, Brother Sheng comes first!
