Tian Dalin originally planned to go back alone, while Li Guihua stayed to pick up the children and wait until the children finished their classes before returning to their hometown. However, Li Guihua felt that it was too hard for him to organize things alone, so she went back with Tian Dalin after discussing it with Tian Shao.
Naturally, Tian Shao didn't have time to pick up Diandian and Niu Niu, so this arduous task was given to Wu Ya. Of course, he could have used bodyguards originally, but he thought Wu Ya should be allowed to run out more and interact with more people to build up his courage.
Wu Ya got up early that day, but Si Ya didn't want to move and said, "Mom, it's true. Dad even told him to go back alone, but he still wants to go with him."
Wu Ya said while getting dressed: "Mom is also afraid that dad will be tired. Okay, get up quickly, or my eldest sister will punish you again."
Siya doesn't have to pick up and drop off the two children, but she has to get up and watch them memorize and read English.
When she couldn't get up, Tian Shao let Si Ya eat three meals a day with steamed buns and a small plate of pickles. Things that he couldn't eat when he was a child, now Si Ya is not willing to touch.
As soon as Tian Dalin and Li Guihua returned home, the neighbors came to congratulate them. There were four college students in the family, and everyone thought that the couple could teach their children. One eldest sister even directly asked the couple if they had any tips, hoping to teach them.
Li Guihua said that there is no secret and it is all the children's own efforts. Unfortunately, many people don't believe it.
Tian Dalin raised his voice and said: "We really don't have any tricks. My family used to think that studying is useless. My eldest and sixth ya were able to pass the college entrance examination because they are smart. As for my fourth and fifth ya, they can pass the college entrance examination."
When they went to college, apart from their hard work, they still benefited from Da Ya's honor."
"When they were in primary school, my eldest daughter forced them to learn English. At that time, if Siya didn't learn, she was punished by eating wild vegetable dumplings for three days. In addition, my eldest daughter also hired a teacher from Sijiucheng for tutoring.
Under the guidance of those teachers, my family’s Si Ya and Wu Ya’s grades are getting better and better.”
The full score of the college entrance examination English was 100 points, the Si Ya test score was 97 points, and the Wu Ya test score was 91 points. Just English alone separated them from many people. The teachers from Sijiucheng University tutored them, mainly teaching learning methods, such as history and politics
Wait, if you master the method, you will get twice the result with half the effort. It’s also because Si Ya and Wu Ya’s qualifications are average, otherwise the college entrance examination scores will be higher.
Tian's neighbor quickly remembered that ten years ago, a student rented their house in order to ask Tian Shao to explain something he didn't understand. And that time, more than ten people who prepared for the exam with Tian Shao all passed the exam, so to speak.
Get up, Tian Daya can really teach people.
After hearing what Tian's neighbors said, everyone agreed with her statement: "Brother Dalin, when will your eldest daughter come back? When she comes back, we will get her menstruation."
Tian Dalin shook his head and said: "My eldest sister won't come back from the wine banquet this time. She has to go to work now and take care of two children. She is too busy all day long."
Neither the Tian family nor the Li family told the public about Tian Shao's resignation. Even the big-mouthed Li Guihua did not let out a word despite being repeatedly warned by Tian Dalin and Uncle Li.
Although everyone felt sorry, it was understandable that the woman could not come back after getting married. After everyone congratulated Tian Dalin and his wife, they dispersed.
In the evening, Erya and Suozhu came over to have dinner after finishing their work.
Erya asked: "Father, mother, why are Siya and Wuya not back?"
Li Guihua explained: "Siya is studying in Sijiucheng and will not come back. When the notice comes, Daya will send someone to the school to get it. Wuya is reluctant to leave Minyu and Minji, and will come back with Diandian and Niu Niu when the time comes.
"
"For the two parties involved, do you still have a college entrance banquet?"
Li Guihua said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether they are there or not. Back then, Daya and Liuya held a banquet for college entrance, so they only showed their faces. But this time it was not a big event, and we only invited relatives and friends to have a meal with members of the family.
"
Erya nodded and said: "Father, mother, you have to decide what to do with this college entrance banquet. Whatever you need me and Suozhu to do, you just give your orders."
Li Guihua was very satisfied when she heard this.
Tian Dalin said another thing: "Erya, Suozhu, I will retire in October next year. I want Niu Niu and Diandian to go to 49 City to study in September. Let your mother take them over first. Wait for me
After you retire, go over and join your mother."
Erya was a little dumbfounded: "Dad, didn't you say you should wait until Diandian graduates from elementary school before going?"
Diandian will only be in fourth grade when school starts in September, and will not graduate from elementary school until the year after next. The couple has already made preparations to go to Sijiucheng when their child graduates from elementary school. Now that they are going ahead of schedule, both of them are reluctant to leave.
Tian Dalin said: "Si Ya and Wu Ya started learning English in elementary school. They were one step ahead of others, so they were admitted to university. I think we should let Dian Dian and Niu Niu go to Sijiucheng earlier."
Nie Suozhu thought about his friend's words and asked: "Dad, my friend told me before that his child does not have a household registration in Sijiu City. Going to study there is a loan, and he will still have to come back to take the college entrance examination. I heard that the students in Sijiu City can pass the exam.
It’s different from what we have here. When the time comes, the children will learn different things. Will they be able to go to college?”
Tian Dalin smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this. Daya told us that before Diandian and Niuniu take the college entrance examination, she will help solve the household registration problem."
It is difficult to settle in Sijiu City now, but it is not as difficult as it was more than thirty years ago. The reason why Tian Shaoji has not done this until now is because she remembers that in the 1990s, a policy was issued in Sijiu City.
You can settle in Jiucheng if you have a house and it reaches a certain area.
Tian Shao didn't know how much area was needed to settle down, but Erya and Suozhu had decided to buy another house, so the two children would definitely be able to settle down.
"Dad, did the eldest sister say this herself?"
A child's education is a lifelong matter, so Nie Suozhu's caution is a normal reaction.
Tian Dalin nodded and said: "Don't worry, Daya told me personally. What your eldest sister promised will definitely be done."
With these words, Nie Suozhu was relieved. He no longer objected to the two children going to study in Sijiu City, but he did not agree to go there now: "Dad, we have discussed it before, and let Dian Dian go to study in Sijiu City after graduating from elementary school.
.The same goes for Niuniu, wait until you graduate from elementary school before going."
Niu Niu was one year younger than Diandian, so he went to school a year later. He didn't want to send the two children away at once, but gave them away one by one, and he would feel better if there was a transition.
Li Guihua disagreed and was about to speak when she was stopped by Tian Dalin.
Tian Dalin said with a smile: "We are also doing it for the best of our children, but if you are reluctant to separate from your children, you can keep them until they graduate from elementary school, within a year or two."
Nie Suozhu really couldn't let go of his children, because he was abandoned since he was a child, so he valued family affection more. At first, he gave everything to Mrs. Nie, but now his wife and children are everything to him.
