Wang Yuechu and Zhang Dali quickly rented two acres of land for Zhang Yao.
The steel pipes and film brought back from the Wei family could still be used, so there was no need to buy other materials.
Zhang Jun and Hao Melting started to help Zhang Yao rebuild the greenhouse.
Wang Yuechu and Zhang Dali were responsible for picking up the children, and cooking and washing clothes for them.
Now that they had the washing machine that Zhang Kun and Li Xu had given them, washing clothes was much easier.
After putting it in, the washing machine would run on its own for half an hour and the clothes would be clean.
The old couple wasn’t tired at all, and they were happy every day.
At the same time, the Wei family also began to build greenhouses.
Wei Zhenghao’s land was empty, but Zhu Qiulian insisted on building the greenhouse on Eldest Brother Wei’s land.
To put it nicely, it was Eldest Brother Wei’s fertilizer.
For this reason, they didn’t hesitate to waste all the winter wheat that would ripen in one or two months.
The villages were close to each other, and there was only one primary school.
Therefore, Wenwen was still in primary school. However, after school, she would not go home but to her grandparents’ house.
Wei Zhenghao seemed to have tacitly agreed to fight with Zhang Yao to the end. Since that day, he had not seen Zhang Yao again, nor did he mention the divorce.
The days passed by, and Qin Xiaomin finished her confinement period very quickly with Meng Xiaoning’s help.
Her milk was still not enough. At first, she had mixed breast milk and milk powder.
Later, she found out that Meng Xiaoning had a lot of breast milk, just as she had said that day. She couldn’t finish it at all.
Gradually, Li Nian’s diet changed from a mixture of breast milk and milk powder to a mixture of two breast milk.
He drank both Qin Xiaomin’s and Meng Xiaoning’s breast milk.
Soon, summer and summer vacation arrived.
Ji Zi’ang heaved a sigh of relief the moment he received the report card.
He did well in his exams and would be attending junior high school next year.
As Ji Zixuan’s younger brother, these results would not embarrass him.
After graduating from primary school, everyone packed up their things before leaving.
When school reopens, they won’t be in this school anymore.
For some reason, Ji Zi’ang felt a little sad.
After he was done, he looked at Qi Huanhuan and whispered, “Qi Huanhuan, I’ll see you in junior high!”
Qi Huanhuan did not beat Ji Zi’ang this time, so she rolled her eyes at him. “1 don’t want to see you again!”
Behind them, Liu Peng was a little jealous, “Hey, Ji Zi’ang! Why didn’t you tell me to meet you in junior high?”
“Tsk.” Ji Zi’ang snorted. “I don’t care if you see me or not.”
Liu Peng slapped Ji Zi’ang’s shoulder. “You’re so good. You value your lover over your friends!”
Qi Huanhuan had not gone far ahead with her school bag.
When she heard Liu Peng’s words, she turned around and glared at Liu Peng before leaving.
Ji Yuanyuan and yang Jingyi had finished their classes early and were waiting for Ji Zi’ang and the others at the school gate.
“Then in September, your Second Brother will also be in junior high school, and it will only be the two of us!” Yang Jingyi said in a low voice.
“Yes, you’re right.” Ji Yuanyuan replied.
“We still have two years before we can enter junior high. By then, your Big Brother will be in Senior High School. We are three years apart, doesn’t that mean we won’t have the chance to go to and from school with your Big Brother?” Yang Jingyi counted with her fingers. “Three years in middle school and three years in high school. I’ll miss it!”
Ji Yuanyuan didn’t mind. When he saw Ji Zi’ang, he quickly waved at him. “Second Brother, over here!”
Yang Jingyi pulled Ji Yuanyuan’s hand. “Yuanyuan, why don’t we go for supplementary lessons during the summer break? We can apply to skip a grade when school starts.”
Under Ji Yuanyuan’s guidance, her results were not bad. Therefore, she wasn’t against skipping a grade.
Thinking she would have the chance to go to and from school with Yuanyuan’s Big Brother if she skipped a grade, she felt full of energy.
“I don’t know!” Ji Yuanyuan was a little hesitant. “The key is that I don’t know if the school still allows me to skip a grade!”
In Ji Yuanyuan’s memory, it was relatively easy to skip grades in the 1990s.
As long as one’s academic performance was good enough, one could communicate with the teacher and pass the teacher’s test to skip a grade. Just like how Ji Yuanyuan skipped a grade last time, it was very simple.
However, it was already 1999. From what she remembered, there were very few people who skipped grades around the millennium.
“I’ll ask Principal Wang about it. I know where she lives. It’s in the neighborhood where my mother works. I’ve seen her before!” Yang Jingyi said.
Ji Zi’ang walked over and heard yang Jingyi’s last sentence. He asked curiously, “Who have you seen?”
Yang Jingyi and Ji Yuanyuan looked at each other and said with a smile, “This is a secret between Yuanyuan and me.”
The next night, Yang Jingyi came to Ji Yuanyuan’s house and brought good news.
“Principal Wang said that as long as we can pass the sixth-grade exam when school starts, we will be able to skip to the sixth grade!” Yang Jingyi’s eyes could not help but drift to Ji Zixuan as she spoke.
When Li Xu heard that, she asked in surprise, “Do you want to skip a grade, Jingyi?”
Jingyi had really changed a lot in the past two years.
In the past, her grades were almost at the bottom, but now she would take the initiative to ask to skip a grade.
“Yes, Auntie.”
Li Xu asked again, “Why do you want to skip a grade? Aren’t the students good now?”
Yang Jingyi looked at Ji Zixuan when Li Xu asked.
Ji Zixuan was doing his homework on his desk and did not notice Yang Jingyi’s gaze.
Ji Zi’ang was so focused on the television that he did not notice.
Only Ji Yuanyuan saw the look in yang Jingyi’s eyes.
She was a little surprised, did yang Jingyi want to skip a grade because she wanted to go to and from school with her brother?
She thought Yang Jingyi would like her Second Brother more than her Big Brother!
After all, her Second Brother was cheerful and had a lot to say to Yang Jingyi.
Of course, Yang Jingyi was still a child, so Ji Yuanyuan did not mean that kind of like.
Li Xu looked over curiously when Yang Jingyi didn’t reply.
Yang Jingyi snapped out of her daze and quickly said, “It’s nothing, Auntie. I’ll go back first.”
Ji Yuanyuan sent her out, and she pulled her hand and said, “Don’t be too playful during the summer break. You have to read both the fifth and sixth-grade books.”
“I understand,” Ji Yuanyuan nodded.
Yang Jingyi was relieved and patted Ji Yuanyuan’s shoulder like an adult. “Then you should go back. I should go home.”
Ji Yuanyuan was curious, so he held yang Jingyi’s hand. “Wait, let me ask you a question!”
Yang Jingyi blinked her eyes, and Ji Yuanyuan leaned forward and whispered in her ear, “Who do you think is better, Big Brother or Second Brother?”
Yang Jingyi peeked into the house and saw that Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang were not outside. Only then did she relax and whispered in Ji Yuanyuan’s ear, “Of course, it’s your Big Brother!”
As expected!
“Why?” Ji Yuanyuan was a little curious..
