ray."The ripples added directly."Yes, the original direction of the small world's development was towards gender equality. This disruption caused a lot of resentment, coupled with the resentment of th...Time flies, and before we knew it, Beibei was able to crawl all over the place. Dabao was already going to school with his backpack on.

Dabao had already learned addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division within 100 under the guidance of ripples. He could recite the "Three Character Classic" by heart, and his calligraphy in both hard and soft brush styles looked quite good.

When Lianzi led Dabao to register at the town primary school, after being assessed by the teacher, Song Chengjin was directly placed in second grade.

Song Qingmei has also entered the sprint stage, and the lights in her room are getting brighter and later every day. Lianyi has to remind her daughter to balance work and rest and go to bed earlier every day.

After Song Qinghai successfully passed the entrance exam to Zhenyi High School, Song Qingmei also faced the college entrance examination.

For three consecutive days, Song Qingmei slept soundly at home after finishing her exams. She slept for a whole day and night before waking up. Then she began to estimate her scores and fill out her application forms.

Considering the current development situation of this place, Liàn Yī suggests that her daughter apply to the Foreign Language College in the provincial capital, majoring in English, and then choose another foreign language she is interested in later.

The ripples told her daughter that when she graduated, she could earn money at home by doing some text translation work, or working as a translator for foreigners during tourist season. At the very least, she could also be an English tutor, which were all well-paying jobs.

Song Qingmei, after hearing Lianyi's words, applied to the Foreign Languages Institute in the provincial capital. According to her estimated score, she was confident of getting in. After submitting her application, all she had to do was wait for the admission notice.

When Song Qingmei received the admission notice from the Foreign Languages Institute in the provincial capital, her whole family was overjoyed. They even set off a string of firecrackers in front of their courtyard to celebrate.

Then the ripples brought Qimei, Hai and Da Bao to live in Luojiazhuang for a while, to report their good news to their own family and to reconnect with them.

All three uncles stayed at the farmhouse. The accommodations were spacious enough to comfortably host them, big and small. Everyone did their utmost to entertain them.

Liàn Yī watched the vegetables in their vegetable patch, as well as the chickens, ducks, and pigs they raised at home. Some ideas came to mind, but it was not the right time to implement them yet. They would have to wait a while longer.

"Xiumei, do you have enough food to eat from what you've planted in the ground now"

Ripple asked the older brother about his wife.

"Enough to eat, these years have been good with favorable weather and abundant harvests. As long as one isn't lazy, they can make a living."

"Things are not as strict as before, so we can raise more chickens and ducks. We have enough eggs from both chickens and ducks. Pigs are raised by the collective, and at the end of the year, we can get money and extra meat, which is quite good."

Xiumei is also a grandmother now, but she's younger than Lianyi. She just looks older because she worked hard in the fields when she was young.

"Things are much better now, the town is more relaxed than before, and some things can be bought without tickets. If there's a good opportunity, I'll keep an eye out for you guys, at least it won't be worse than it is now."

Half a month before Qing Mei's school started, Lian Yi returned to the town with her children.

Now that the streets are bustling with street vendors and spontaneous morning markets, vegetable companies, state-run restaurants, and supply and marketing cooperatives in town have all been impacted.

And all kinds of tickets were gradually cancelled. Now, as long as you have money, you can basically buy any living supplies, it's just that the quality of things is high and low.

Just at that time, the mechanical factory's office building was completed. Besides those allocated to leaders according to their ranks, there were eight sets of houses left over.

After the unit's leaders met, they decided to put all eight houses up for sale. The money from the sales would be used to buy new equipment for the factory, so they wouldn't consider factors like rank or years of service. All that mattered was whether you could afford it.

The workers at the machinery factory revolted again, everyone agreed that it should be allocated for free like ordinary apartment buildings. However, the bureaucratic official also said that everything is done according to regulations, and ordinary workers are unable to have this housing benefit. If everyone is unwilling, then the houses won't be sold, they can just stay empty.

The cost of buying a house had already caused some ripples for them, because in order to send their daughter to study in the provincial city, Ripples did not stay behind to wait for the results. She went with Dabao to see Qing Mei off.

Song Qinghai was extremely resentful, unfortunately, Zhenyi Middle School had started earlier. He could only be a good student and temporarily stay at his older brother's house to eat and look after the place.

> Dabao is becoming more and more lively. After staying at Lao Jiazhuang for a while, he made many close playmates and even went to the city to see the world. Now he can even go to the provincial capital, excitedly ignoring even his uncle's resentful look.

Lian Yi also wanted to go to the provincial city to see the prospects of embroidery, so she sent her daughter to school and finished registering. After settling her accommodation, she started exploring the provincial city.

The provincial capital is larger and more prosperous, with a larger population and more foreign shops. Lian Yi went for a walk there; they also sell embroidery there, but the prices are slightly higher than in the city.

Ripple took the opportunity to sell another one of her original works, a painting titled "Landscape of Mountains and Rivers." Her account balance jumped again, and she was now officially a member of the ten thousand yuan club.

Lian Yi took Dabao and Qing Mei for a nice tour around the provincial capital. When Qing Mei's classes officially started, Lian Yi took Dabao back home, as their grandson was also starting school.

But back after just two days, Lianyi discovered that her youngest son was preoccupied with something. As a mother, she certainly had to pay attention to this.

"Xiao Hai, have you encountered anything recently Mom sees that you don't seem very happy."

Song Qinghai looked at his mother's concerned face, hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth:

"Mom, there's a girl in our class who's always being bullied. I helped her once, and now my classmates are saying that we're together. Both she and I denied it, but no one believes us, and the rumors are getting worse."

Song Qinghai was quite helpless. He didn't expect that just by lending a hand, he would find himself embroiled in rumors and gossip. If he had known beforehand, he probably would have hesitated.

Liàn Yī listened and frowned. If her son wasn't lying, then it was clear that someone was targeting Qìng Hǎi.

"I'll go to school tomorrow and find out what's going on. Mom won't let you get bullied."

The next day, Lian Yi dressed very formally and went to school. She first met with her homeroom teacher to inquire about the situation, then bypassed the head of teaching and went straight to see the principal.

"As for Song Qinha's mother, we will investigate this thoroughly and give you a response."

"Principal Sun, your Zhenyi Middle School is a key school. The children who come here to study are all aiming for college. My daughter, Song Qingmei, graduated from Yi Zhong and is now studying at university in the provincial capital. This is all thanks to the school's cultivation."

So when Qinghai told me about this, as a parent I was very shocked. When did students' focus shift from studying to these aspects Most importantly, my son stopped others from bullying girls, did he do something wrong

"If that's the case, I would rather spend more money to transfer my son to another school than let him attend your prestigious institution. I am afraid that rumors will ruin my son's reputation."

Ripple said that the voice behind had become a little cold.

"Parents are overreacting, the school will definitely investigate this matter seriously."

"No, check it now, or I will report you to the Municipal Education Bureau!"he Emperor also had to consider the expenses of building riverbanks and constructing tombs, which required a lot of silver. It was impossible for him to drain the entire national treasury for a single...
