Gu Xuan did not choose the Normal College in the end, but chose to repeat his senior year at Chongyi Middle School.
When Chen Xingling went to receive his admission letter, he registered with Teacher Lin Ming in advance.
When Teacher Lin Ming heard that it was her sister-in-law, she thought she was also an outstanding student and agreed immediately.
Chen Xingling didn't explain in detail, only saying that Gu Xuan didn't like the school that admitted her, and because she moved to Yucheng, she simply chose to repeat her studies here.
Teacher Lin Ming quickly answered yes, explaining that the situation in the senior year was rather special and that classes would start early on August 10th, and students must register and pay tuition on the 7th or 8th.
"Teacher, I have something to ask you first." Chen Xingling lowered his voice: "My sister-in-law's household registration is in Beijing. My wife said that she will find a way to move here in the short term. It shouldn't affect the registration for repeating the year, right?"
"No." Lin Ming replied; "But it has to be done as soon as possible, before the college entrance examination registration."
Chen Xingling smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's do it quickly."
Lin Ming was a little worried, and whispered: "Moving your household registration is a big deal, can your wife do it? It should be easier if it's related to job transfer, but it may be difficult in other situations."
"My wife has gone to find a solution." Chen Xingling explained with a smile: "We already have a house in Yucheng, so it shouldn't be difficult to move our household registration in."
"That's fine." Lin Ming reminded again: "You must do it quickly and don't delay. The school doesn't want to train students well and find out that they can't pass the exam in the end. The school may feel a little regretful at most, but the students' future cannot be delayed."
"Okay." Chen Xingling said gently, "My sister-in-law has just arrived. I'll have to trouble you to take care of her in the future. She is very quiet and doesn't like to talk. She is good at science, but not in science. She has been studying science hard recently. I hope she can catch up."
Lin Ming praised it and said it was very good, then turned to Guan Yu and asked about Ma Dali's situation.
"Tell him quietly that he must save up enough money for the first semester's tuition. Once he enters college, he can apply for poverty subsidies or scholarships, and then he will have more money."
Chen Xingling explained: "He should be able to collect the money this summer. He has already saved up quite a bit."
"Really?!" Lin Ming couldn't believe it and asked, "How... do you know? You guys are usually close, so he must have told you, right?"
Ma Dali was a stubborn person and was not willing to accept help from others. She had learned about his family situation and wanted to help him, but he always said no.
Other students disliked him, thinking he was too rigid, and some even looked down on him. Only Chen Xingling and Jia Shuanghua became good friends with him and were usually quite close.
Chen Xingling had no choice but to tell the truth: "Maybe there will still be a little short by then. He said he could ask relatives to borrow some more and should be able to make up the difference. I told him that if it's not enough, he can borrow from me, and he nodded and agreed."
"Only you and Shuanghua can make him accept help." Lin Ming sighed: "Friends who make friends with their hearts are true friends."
"Yeah." Chen Xingling put away the admission letter and smiled: "Teacher, I'll go first."
Lin Ming was a little reluctant, and said softly: "I'll take you out."
Chen Xingling was flattered and shook his head: "No, no, how can I ask you to send me off, teacher?"
"Let's go." Lin Ming smiled and said, "The school is so quiet during the summer vacation. I'm used to being busy, and I always feel uncomfortable when I have free time. I ran around the Education Bureau with the principal a few days ago. Although I was a little tired, I was very happy to see that you all passed the exam. I don't know what to do these days when I'm free. You, just think of it as accompanying the teacher for a while."
"It's my honor." Chen Xingling laughed.
Lin Ming looked at her bright and confident smile and smiled along with her unconsciously.
At this time, the principal staggered along another path towards the teachers' dormitory building.
Lin Ming waved and greeted him.
Chen Xingling shouted: "Hello, Principal!"
Principal Xiao squinted his eyes and nodded, then continued forward.
Chen Xingling couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, what's wrong with the principal's feet? Why does he walk so strangely?"
Lin Ming's family also lived in the school and knew the principal's situation quite well.
"He has rheumatic legs, and he has trouble walking for a while every year. A few days ago, there was a little trouble at home. Maybe he was angry, or maybe it was time for the disease to flare up. The next day, he became like this again."
"Angry?" Chen Xingling turned his head and glanced, and found that the principal had gone far away. He lowered his voice and said, "His daughter and my wife both work at the shipyard. I heard that one of her suitors ran to the shipyard gate to wait for her. I don't know what happened, but she started arguing with several shipyard workers and later fought. The situation was quite serious. I heard that the suitor is still lying in the hospital."
She now stays at the construction site every day, and always goes in and out from the area closest to the north gate.
Most workers usually go in and out of the front gate, and so does Nishang. Therefore, she did not have the opportunity to see this sensational scene of "a man goes to great lengths to save his beloved".
But this incident caused a huge uproar and spread throughout the shipyard. Even my mother-in-law, Ying, went to see it, and the whole family talked about it a lot.
Therefore, even if she had no intention of gossiping, she had to follow the gossip.
Lin Ming smiled bitterly and whispered, "I know this too. The family of the suitor you mentioned came to the school and had a quarrel with the principal's wife. It was very embarrassing that day, and many teachers went to mediate, and I followed them to mediate."
"Wow~~" Chen Xingling couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's going on? Many people said that the man who was beaten into the hospital has been discussing marriage with a beautiful woman. Is it true?"
Lin Ming shook his head: "I heard that it was the man's one-sided wish. Nichang didn't nod and kept refusing. However, from what the man's family said that day, it seemed that the principal's lover accepted their expensive gifts. I don't know if the other party misunderstood or did it on purpose, and announced to the public that they had already paid the betrothal gift, and then they were going to get engaged to Nichang."
"Oh oh." Chen Xingling thought of Nichang's proud and beautiful appearance, and whispered: "This flower of the great beauty is not so easy to pluck."
Lin Ming smiled bitterly: "Nichang is a girl with high aspirations and even higher standards. She doesn't care about ordinary people. She is already 22 or 23 years old, and her mother is always worried that she will become an old maid if she doesn't get married."
"Twenty-two or twenty-three is not too many." Chen Xingling muttered.
Lin Ming couldn't help but tease: "You are about the same age as her, but you have been married for several years. I heard that your child is already more than three years old - did I hear it wrong?"
Chen Xingling laughed and nodded: "He's over three years old. I used to take care of him, but now his dad takes care of him."
Recently, little Huzi started to dislike kindergarten again, and would sneak out to Gu Qi's office to play from time to time.
Gu Qi felt that his son would be going to primary school soon and would not spend much time with him, so he turned a blind eye and let his son act up.
Fortunately, although the boy was a little naughty, he knew how to stay within his limits and was able to please the adults. Otherwise, Chen Xingling would have sent him back to her mother's house to let his cousins play with him.
Lin Ming smiled dotingly, "That's right. Your children are old enough to help with the housework, but Nichang is still picky all the time. In fact, she was a little late when she registered her household registration, and the age on her ID card is one year younger than her actual age. She is almost 24 now, but she is so beautiful that you can't tell her age at all."
Chen Xingling nodded and smiled, "She does have the talent to select others! Some people don't have the ability or strength to be picky even if they want to."
"Everything has a limit, right?" Lin Ming smiled and said, "No one is perfect, especially in the field of marriage. The more sober you are, the less likely you are to get married."
