The sun was still stubbornly hanging in the west on a summer's evening. It was still very bright and bright at six o'clock. As the neighbors' children were about to leave, Second Grandma pushed open the door with a convenient bag in her hand.

Qi Zhengyuan hurriedly took the bag in his second grandma's hand and called for his mother, who rushed out to welcome her into the room. In the bag were some biscuits and other snacks, and at the bottom were some green beans, "Qianqian, sorry to trouble you, but don't think there's not enough of these things."

Mrs Qi poured a glass of water for Second Young Madam and put it on the tea table, saying, "How is it troublesome? There are many children in my family, and it's very lively with many children. Qianqian is living quite well here."

At this moment, only mother Qi was with second grandma, who said, "Qianqian won't be able to stay in her house, but my daughter-in-law Jian Ming is still acting properly, it's such a pity for this child. Let her stay at your house for two days at the last minute, and then your second uncle and I will work as Jianming's daughter-in-law. When she thinks of something else, I will bring Qianqian to my house."

After the summer vacation, if you don't go back home or go to live with your grandma, you will be talked about by the villagers. He wanted to buy a house in F City after he got his bonus, take her to school, and then go with his young aunt to be Dou Dou's partner. Although it wasn't a proper matter for him to be with his cousin, there were less people who chatted away from home, so it was reasonable for his second young mistress to talk to his mother like this.

Qi Xiang remembered that in his previous life, because of Qian Qian's stepmother, Qian Qian had already entered a high school in the county to earn money. Because of her looks, she had been cheated several times, but in the end, she gave up on herself and went back to her maternal grandma's house. When her grandma went back home for the new year, she saw her grandma cry once, so her uncles and aunts didn't feel the same way.

His mother said, "Second Aunt, as long as Qian Qian lives in our house, you don't have to worry about her. Qi Run and her family have lived in our house for quite a while, so it's not troublesome."

Second Young Madam wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "My second daughter was unlucky. The rest of her was unlucky as well. She couldn't grow up by her father's side. It's better than staying by my stepmother's side."

"Second Aunt, Qianqian is so old now, she'll definitely remember what you did to her. When she's older, she'll repay you for what you did to her."

"I don't ask for anything in return. As long as this child can grow up healthy, it's fine. This way, I'll be able to live up to my poor daughter."

Hearing the commotion downstairs, the children who were playing checkers upstairs came to the living room. Qian Qian saw Second Grandma and smiled as she called out to her. Second Grandma quickly wiped her tears away and held Qian's hand, saying, "You should stay at Uncle's place for the next two days and get to know your elder brothers and sisters a few more words. After the summer vacation, your grandma will send you to school."

Qian Qian's eyes suddenly lit up. Because her stepmother had stopped her, Qian Qian's dad didn't send her to the kindergarten. According to her age, she could send her to primary school.

Hearing that she could go to school like the other children, Qian Qian's mood immediately became better. The smile on her small face blossomed, illuminating the entire room.

The simple rice and green bean curd rice, the stewed potatoes and cucumbers, and a plate of small salted vegetables mixed with sesame oil. Everyone was eating happily, and even Qi Hong, who had always been unhappy without meat, was eating well. Qi Hong went to the small forest to catch some monkeys, helped his mother pack up the utensils and prepared a few sketches on the wall. He had already found the literacy cards for the primary school students long ago.

He let out a long breath, turned off the lights, and closed the door. He was waiting for tomorrow's challenge.

The next day was a sunny day, and before five o'clock the curtained room was bright.

He got up, cleaned up, and went to the classroom. He also wiped the windowsill with a rag and prepared to put down cups for the children and look at the things in the room. Then, he let out a long sigh of relief and prepared breakfast, waiting for the children to wake up and eat breakfast before bringing the children in.

By eight o'clock, there were already a dozen or so children. The oldest was eight or nine, the youngest was five or six, and Qi Yuan divided them up. The older was sitting together with the younger was not in primary school yet, and when everyone had settled down, Qi Yuan clapped his hands to calm them and said to the children, "Welcome to my house for the rest of the summer vacation. These elder brothers and sisters and I will take you guys to do your summer homework in the future. We will review the knowledge we learned in the past, and also prepare the knowledge we will learn later. "One more point sister will emphasize, there's something you have to tell me, you don't want to tell me which sister and brother you want to tell, but you can't fight."

Qi Yuan looked at the dozens of children sitting upright on a wooden board. They were still children at this time, easy to coax, obedient to their teachers. They were not like the kids ten years later, where their own thoughts were the eldest and they would not listen to anyone else's. Qi Yuan nodded his head in satisfaction and continued, "Today is our first day, and we're all from the same village, so we all know each other, so we don't need to introduce ourselves. Qi Yuan nodded his head in satisfaction and continued," Today is our first day, and we're all from the same village, and we all know each other.

After he finished arranging his homework, he looked at the clock on the wall and noted down the time. The child's rating was not good, so he couldn't take it too long. He had to control the duration of each class to 40 minutes.

After fifteen days of squabbling and squabbling, some children cried out because they couldn't write properly, and some children just glared at other children because of a single sentence. Qi Yuan was like a fireman, scolding wherever he went, finally sending away these children who were quiet like angels and made a racket like a demon, and the parents who had come to send him off on the last day with their tuition fees. Qi Chang felt that this teacher of his was successful, and a few parents even said that he had sent some children here to study during the summer break.

Qian Qian had been learning how to read and count, preparing for primary school. Qi Yanzheng had taken her brother and sister from her family and her third uncle's family to do homework and review. Some of their knowledge points were very obscure, and they had to help Qi Yidao find a lot of books and materials.

In the evening, Qi Zhengyuan took out the money and counted it. Nearly a thousand yuan, looking at the stack of five yuan, ten yuan and twenty yuan, he shook his two eyes and said, "Sister, there's so much money."

Qi Zhengyuan shook the money and said, "It's just a few coins, and you look just like that. When you earn big money in the future, what will you look like?"

Qi Yun said, "This is already a lot. We will need to spend this money for half a year."

He thought about the lottery ticket and thought: "Sister, if you knew that our family has so much money, what would you look like?"

Seeing that his mother had arrived in the living room, Qi Yuan passed the money to her and said, "Mom, take this money. We can make up for the tuition fees in a few days."

Mama Qi gave the money back to him, "You earned this money yourselves. You sisters can split it among yourselves. Feel free to decide whatever you want to buy. The school fees are between your dad and me, so you don't have to worry about it."

Looking at the look of anticipation on his sister-in-law's face, Qi Yuan counted out Wu Baiyuan and gave him to his mother, saying, "We'll share these, so you have to keep this."

Mother Qi saw Qi Xiang's determination and took it over, "Alright then, I'll put this in your tuition."

Qi Yuan gave the three children one hundred yuan each, and kept the rest of the hundred yuan. He still had a hundred yuan left, and he still had to take the train to the provincial capital to get his bonus.

Qi Yuan himself knew that the notice would arrive in the next few days, but his mother did not know. Qi Yuan found that his mother had lost her composure from the past few days, and this was what people in the village discussed the most, the Qi Family Village was a big village with over three thousand people, and the people who took the college entrance examination were the five or six people, so naturally, they were the focus of attention. The other people were all here, because Qi Yuan had been delayed in coming, unlike the other students who were later accepted, or went to their own homes in case of missing admission.

On the night of the 16th, Qi Zheng went with his mother to the back of the house to catch the cool. The evening breeze of summer still brought a cool feeling to the small forest. Mrs Qi replied, "It's almost the end of August. Your notice hasn't arrived yet, what's your plan if he doesn't come?"

Qi Xiang said, "Mom, I'll be back in two days. I must attend the school. Don't worry about it. It's not good to wait for me to graduate. We can just find ourselves a better job."

Mama Qi didn't say anything after hearing that. She stayed silent for a while and then said, "I saw that everyone else's notice was already here. I was worried about your absence, just in case I didn't get accepted by the school."

Qi Zhengyuan didn't say anything else. He could see his mother's worries in the past few days. After a few days of notice, his mother would be relieved. Although the school was not good, there was a place to go to eventually.
