In a blink of an eye, Tang Meilan had been in the water village for more than half a month.
Because Tang Ci had to go to work, Tang Meilan and her family had to return to the provincial capital.
Tang Zijun and Tang Zimei hugged San Ya and Si Ya's legs and cried loudly. They turned a deaf ear to Tang Meilan's calls for them to pack their luggage.
"Be good, Zijun and Zimei. Come and play with us again during summer vacation."
The two people who hadn't started school yet didn't know what summer vacation meant. They asked, "Sister Sanya, what does summer vacation mean? Can we eat?"
"You can't eat it during the summer vacation, but you can eat it anytime after the summer vacation." San Ya smacked her lips and replied.
When I was in school, I was often detained by the teacher and could only eat at mealtimes.
Occasionally, when I brought some snacks to school, many classmates would stare at me, making me feel very uncomfortable while eating.
It’s better to be at home. I can let myself go at any time. I eat when I’m hungry, sleep when I’m full, and continue eating when I wake up...
And every summer vacation, the wild fruits on the south slope are ripe.
Although the wild fruits are not big, they are very sweet and very popular among children.
When the time comes, everyone rushes to pick them, fearing that they will miss out if they are slow.
Therefore, you can often see pictures of "children" hanging on the treetops on the south slope.
Thinking of this, San Ya's saliva was about to flow, as if the wild fruit had already entered her mouth.
I don’t know if I can be the first to pick those sweet wild fruits without the help of Su Qianshan and Su Qianfan this year.
"Zijun and Zimei, cherish the days when you don't have to go to school. Once you enter school, you will have to study from the first grade to the second year of high school, and then take the college entrance examination. It's a long road that will never end. You won't have the chance to play like you do now." The realistic Si Ya said.
She once longed to go to school and thought it was fun to go to school with her brothers and sisters.
It was not until I embarked on this path of studying that I felt the sadness.
So she is working so hard now not to get into a good university, but to skip grades and study a few fewer years.
The feeling of getting up in the middle of winter to go to school is so painful.
"How long is summer vacation going to last? Can I play with my brothers and sisters all the time during summer vacation?"
"About half a year left."
Tang Zijun counted on his fingers to figure out how long half a year was.
I counted with all ten fingers but still couldn't figure it out.
Si Ya couldn't bear to see this and held his little hand, "Forget it, just ask your mother when the time comes. Don't be unhappy, we want summer vacation more than you do."
When Si Ya thought about the school starting soon, her heart was filled with waves of emotions.
She hasn't started writing her five diaries yet.
Mingming's mother said that children nowadays are very happy and there is no homework book called "Happy Winter Vacation".
But she forgot that teachers would not let students just play during the holidays.
For Chinese, I had to copy the new words after class using a grid, one page per word, and then write five essays of 200 to 300 words each. Math was not so difficult; I just reviewed the textbook once more, which was almost like no homework.
Ah~ what a miserable life!
What to do? I’m already thinking about how to spend my summer vacation.
Wow...why is it still half a year before the price is lowered?
Si Ya is a little upset.
Tang Zijun, who seemed to understand, held Si Ya's hand instead and said, "Sister Si Ya, remember to write a letter to my mother during the summer vacation and ask her to send me here, okay?"
"Yeah." Si Ya squatted down and said something to the two of them, which made them stunned.
The person who had just been making a fuss about not going home is now urging Tang Meilan to pack her things.
It’s called going home to school.
"Zijun and Zimei, be obedient. You are still young and not old enough to go to school. I will send you when you are older." Tang Meilan was a little amused. She didn't know who the two children inherited their impetuous temperament from.
"No, I'm not a child anymore, I want to go. Brother Xiaowu and Brother Xiaoliu are only one year older than me, and they have been in school for a long time. It's not wrong for me to start school just now, right?" Tang Zijun said.
"Come here, Tang Zijun. This is Xiaowu's first-grade textbook. I'll also give you a Xinhua Dictionary. When you come next time, memorize this book. Then, pass your Xiaoliu brother's assessment and you can go to school. The same goes for Zimei. You know, if you can't even learn this, you can grow up a little longer and go to school later."
Xiao Wu took out a few dusty books from somewhere and stuffed them into Tang Zijun's arms as if throwing a hot potato.
Because he was the youngest student in the family, all the textbooks and materials that others didn't need were given to Xiaowu.
At such a young age, he already had a pile of books as tall as himself.
Tang Zijun accepted them all and kept asking Xiaowu if he had any more.
"Read these first, then write to me yourself and I'll send it to you."
After coaxing the child, the time to say goodbye has come.
Two bicycles, a tricycle, and a donkey cart rented from the village.
A group of people set off for the train station in a mighty procession. All the members of the Su family went out except Hei Ye who was reluctant to go out.
"Meilan, if you have any problems, please send us a message. Don't handle it alone. Listen."
"Aunt Meilan, this is the phone number of our unit. Call me if you have any problems. You can call anyone you want, anytime. If we are not here, ask the person who answers the phone to pass on the message." Su Qianshan took out the small notebook he had prepared in advance. It contained the phone numbers of all the units where the Su family's children worked.
"Meilan, this is a small whip I made specially for you. If anyone bullies you, just whip her. At most, you'll have to pay her some money, but you must never let yourself get upset. I'm an experienced person and I know how hard it is for a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to have a conflict of temperament. You should just do this..."
