Chapter 270. High school entrance exam
After agreeing to Shen Yu's request to bring some back next time, Lin Qing He came over to Zhou Xiao Mei's place.
She had bought two watermelons. One was given to Zhou Xiao Mei.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, when did you come back?" Zhou Xiao Mei was very surprised.
She hadn't gone to work since this month and nurtured her pregnancy at home. Now her belly was almost seven months old, which wasn't small at all.
"I came back during the summer harvest rush. At that time, there was a tractor going back to the neighboring village. I hurriedly hopped on and didn't have time to talk to you." Lin Qing He smiled.
"Fourth Aunt, our family also has a big watermelon. Take both of them back for Second Brother and the others to eat." Su Cheng said.
He was in elementary school. He was extraordinarily smart and sensible.
Also, his relationship with his two cousins, Er Wa and San Wa, was close. He still remembered the days when he was a little in his hometown.
"Da Lin just bought one back today. It's in the kitchen. Hasn't been cut yet." Zhou Xiao Mei smiled.
Then she went in and cut the watermelon to entertain her fourth sister-in-law.
"Don't busy yourself. I'll do it." Lin Qing He looked at her large belly. She really didn't dare to sit and let her entertain.
So she went in and cut the watermelon herself.
"The watermelon is cold, eat less." Lin Qing He said to her.
Zhou Xiao Mei said: "Fourth Sister-in-law, I lost my job."
"If you lose it, then lose it. Thirty yuan a month isn't a lot." Lin Qing He waved her hand and said indifferently. She looked at Su Cheng and said, "Come and eat the watermelon. Eat this. The one Aunt brought can be kept for your father to eat later."
Su Cheng picked up the watermelon and ate it.
"Fourth Sister-in-law, did you get rich?" Zhou Xiao Mei also grabbed a piece to eat and asked her.
Thirty yuan a month. That was really a lot.
"What getting rich? Thirty yuan a month truly isn't much. If you listen to me, then properly deliver the baby. You don’t have to worry about everything else. When the time comes, your fourth sister-in-law will take you flying. You only need to count the money. Don't have to worry about it," Lin Qing He replied.Zhou Xiao Mei laughed when she heard it: "Fourth Sister-in-law, you're getting better at making me happy."
"As long as you are happy. When you are free, take the kids out for a walk more. Don't stay at home. It's stuffy." Lin Qing He suggested. Then she asked: "Next time, do you want me to bring you an electric fan?"
There was electricity in the city, but Zhou Xiao Mei didn't have any appliances yet.
"It's too expensive. Not easy to buy at all. Also, it requires a lot of connections." Zhou Xiao Mei shook her head.
"It's indeed pretty expensive." Lin Qing He replied.
At this time, the electrical appliances were really expensive. She heard that a refrigerator cost several thousand yuan. What's more, how much were the houses now?
"In the future, you'll settle down in the capital. I have plans to go over and take refuge with you. I will hold all the money I currently have," Zhou Xiao Mei said.
She also understood that it was more secure to carry more money when she is away from home.
Lin Qing He nodded.
At this time Su Da Lin was at work, Lin Qing He didn't stay much longer. She left a watermelon behind. However, Zhou Xiao Mei brought it out: "There are so many people at home. Fourth Sister-in-law, take it back home to eat. It's not like we don't have any here."
"Fourth Aunt, take it back and feed it to my Second Brother and the others. This year, Second Brother will be in the first year of high school. Tell Second Brother to come over to live with me and sleep with me." Su Cheng said.
"Okay." Lin Qing He smiled and cycled back.
She didn't even notice that her Er Wa was going to enter the first year of high school this year and sold all the electric fans she brought. If not, how great it would be to keep one at Xiao Mei's place?
The small bungalows in the city were fine, but they were too stuffy. They can't be compared to the countryside's openness.
Next time, she'll bring one back.
Lin Qing He took two watermelons. She didn't go back to the village straight away. She made a detour and delivered one to her third brother.
Both her brother and her sister-in-law went to the field. Only two girls were at home. Lin Qing He dropped off the watermelon and then returned.
When Lin Qing He returned home, Wu Ni and Zhou Yang were both studying in the yard. Lin Qing He had put away everything and then came to check them. She explained two questions and gave three more questions for them to do.
Before doing these three questions, she got the cousins to write out the English words that Lin Qing He told them to memorize after class yesterday.
She let them correct themselves.
Wu Ni made two mistakes, while one error for Zhou Yang.
Lin Qing He only left five words based on their abilities. There were also the previous memorizations that ad to be rewritten. There were still mistakes.
"Write the incorrect ones ten times. I will check it tomorrow. Let's continue to do the questions now." Lin Qing He said.
The siblings worked on the problems.
The questions from their fourth aunt weren't easy. The two brothers and sisters did their own one and mulled on it separately.
Soon Er Wa and San Wa returned.
Both of them went to supplementary classes. While Wu Ni and Zhou Yang didn't.
Er Wa and San Wa huddled over and looked at the questions. San Wa hadn’t calculated it yet, but he did a lot of Mathematical Olympiad problems. He remarked, “These aren't difficult. Sister, you can solve it with the method you used for this question."
He pulled out the question from Wu Ni’s previous homework.
"It's difficult." Wu Ni grumbled. She didn't understand the connection between the two questions.
"It's all in the same model. Not difficult." San Wa said.
"Have you memorized the words?" Er Wa asked.
San Wa stuck out his tongue and then went to recite his own English words. Lin Qing He personally taught her fluent spoken language, which made Wu Ni and Zhou Yang envious.
Er Wa also started to work on his own homework.
This one was eager to enter the university in the capital. That's why he had self-initiative and worked very hard in his studies.
Currently, he was first in his grade in the community's junior high.
What's more, he was currently taking extra classes. The community's teacher was actually holding private lessons and let him preview high school knowledge in advance.
It wasn't that he had nothing to do with the school after passing the entrance exam and the school will do nothing. In the future, if Er Wa comes out on top over other students at the county high school, then the community's junior high school will also become famous. It will be especially prestigious.
After all, he graduated from the community's junior high.
"Your high school entrance examination results are coming out soon?" Lin Qing He asked.
"It should around these days." Er Wa nodded.
Lin Qing He didn't continue to ask. While Zhou Yang couldn't help but say, "How did you do in the exam?"
"I have done everything I can. Nothing was left out. I just don't know if it's right." Er Wa shook his head.
Zhou Yang couldn't help but admire him. There was nothing he couldn't do. This was so cool.
Wu Ni also appeared envious. They all studied at the community's junior high school. They all knew how good Er Wa was.
"You guys, work hard. It will be your turn next year," said Er Wa.
"En." Zhou Yang and Wu Ni both nodded.
They only want to pass the exam and go to the city to study. They dare not think of any ranking.

Thank you for the chapter <3
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chap! 😊
ReplyDeleteI really love how MC raised her children. Even with her not present in the house, they have the self-discipline to study well.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter! I'm getting distracted by some other readings I do so sorry for such a late response.
ReplyDeleteI didn't find many points that stood out to me, tho one of them is bug letter whenever Sister-in-law or Brother or others of those type came up. You should go through the chapter and decide if you want to live them be or continue adding big letter everywhere. I'm not going to post them.
here were also the previous memorizations that ad to be rewritten -> it was supposed to be 'had' right?
