Chapter 1698: Not afraid of breaking up, skipping a level
Chapter 1701 Not afraid of breaking up, skipping a level
Zhuang Chaoying kept a calm face and said nothing, but Huang Ling, who had always been good-tempered and not annoying, couldn't bear it anymore.
"Yi Ming, what you said, just three children, how come your grandparents are so noisy that your blood pressure rises? You have been tutoring at our house for so many days, and we don't seem to have said anything, right? How come our family is so quarrelsome?
Xi, they just went to your house to do homework for a few days, and then they stopped working. What do you mean?"
Li Yiming hurriedly explained: "Aunt Huang, I really don't mean anything. It's just that my grandparents are old and can't stand the noise of children. I don't mean anything else."
Huang Ling waved her hand and said, "I understand what you mean. I just don't want Tuxi and the others to go to your house to do homework again. Is that what you mean?"
Li Yiming hesitated and did not refute, but he also did not deny it, indicating that this was what he meant.
"Okay, Yiming, tell me, if you come to our house to make up lessons, where will our children do their homework?"
Before Li Yiming spoke, Song Xiangyang said directly: "Aunt Huang, I think Tunan and the others can go to Dongzhe's place to do homework or go out for fun. We only study for one or two hours every day, and it will be over soon.
Anyway, Tunan and the others are still in elementary school, so there is no pressure to study, and the few months passed quickly."
"Oh."
Huang Ling really laughed angrily, and she said with a sarcastic face: "For your college entrance examination, our family has to make room for you, delaying our children's study? Your college entrance examination is important, but our children's study is not important.
?A few months have passed so quickly, Yiming, is this what you meant?"
"Aunt Huang, that's not what we meant. My cousin just cares too much about the college entrance examination. This is a rare opportunity and we don't want to give it up."
"If you don't want to give up, we have to support you, is that what you mean? Yiming, Chaoying will give you free tutoring. I didn't want to say anything at first, but what you did and what you said is really chilling.
Already."
Huang Ling no longer kept secrets from them, and said straightforwardly: "Yi Ming, let me tell you this now. I have no objection to you asking Chaoying to make up lessons, but the premise is that it will not delay the growth of my children."
Study and live, otherwise, I will not let Chaoying give you extra lessons."
"A Ling." Zhuang Chaoying wanted to speak, but was stopped by Huang Ling's look.
"If you want to come to our home to make up lessons, find an environment where my children can learn, or let Chaoying come to your home to make up lessons for you. It's your choice."
"this?"
Li Yiming suddenly showed his embarrassment. Of course, he would prefer to make up lessons at the banker, and at the same time, he could prevent Zhou Chen and the others from going to his house. But looking at Huang Ling's attitude, it was obviously impossible. As for finding a place for him, how could he?
That ability.
Song Xiangyang pushed Li Yiming, and Li Yiming gritted his teeth and said, "Aunt Huang, let me go home and ask."
After saying that, he and Song Xiangyang left the banker first.
Zhuang Chaoying watched them leave, sighed, and said, "A-Ling, you shouldn't be so straightforward."
Huang Ling snorted coldly: "If you don't tell me straightforwardly, how could they give up? You also know that Tunan will be admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in a few months. If they are delayed like this every day, how can Tunan fail to pass the No. 1 Middle School?
What to do? Zhuang Chaoying, in your mind, which one is more important, Li Yiming and others, the college entrance examination, or Tunan and others' studies?"
"Needless to say, of course it is more important for Tunan and the others to study, but there is nothing they can do about it now."
"Why can't I help it? A few days ago, wouldn't it be nice for Tuxi and the others to do their homework and study at their house? Tuxi can teach Xiaoting and Dongzhe alone, and Tunan can study quietly in Dongzhe's room alone.
Lin Gong and Song Ying were kind-hearted and did not object."
"But now, you also heard what Yiming said. He came to our house to make up lessons, and he was not at home, so he couldn't contact Tusi and the others. It was obviously their family who asked him to say it. The meaning is not obvious enough.
? I want you to make up lessons, but I don’t want to give up my place at home. How can there be such a good thing in the world? "
Huang Ling spoke very directly, and these words were her innermost thoughts.
Zhou Chen mentioned to her two days ago that the Li family was impatient, so he asked her to be prepared and someone would come to talk to her soon.
Originally, she thought the Li family could hold on for a few more days, but she didn't expect that they couldn't bear it after only a week. It was really funny, people can't be so shameless.
"What you said makes sense, but we are still children after all."
"What kind of children? When we were as old as Yiming and the others, they were already working. Even if they are children, if children are not sensible, why are adults not sensible? In other words, they are neighbors. Otherwise, who cares about them?"
Now Huang Ling's creed is that no matter what happens, she cannot affect her children, not even Zhuang Chaoying, the father, let alone outsiders.
After a long time, Li Yiming came back again.
"Teacher Zhuang, I have discussed it with my parents. If necessary in the future, I will ask Teacher Zhuang to come to our house to make up lessons. Teacher Zhuang, is that okay?"
Zhuang Chaoying smiled and nodded, "Yes, of course, what about today?"
"I'm going to trouble Teacher Zhuang today too."
"Okay, no problem, I'll pack up and go back with you."
Zhuang Chaoying was very happy. He was very satisfied with the result. He spared his own home for his children. It was very good for him to come to make up lessons. Anyway, he was right next door.
After they left, Zhou Chen gave his mother a thumbs up, while Huang Ling touched her son's head with a smile. She was also very happy that the matter was finally resolved and she wouldn't have to worry so much in the future.
Even if others come again, they can follow Li Yiming's method.
This result was not beyond Zhou Chen's expectation. What was his purpose of bringing Lin Dongzhe with him? It was just for this moment. Compared with Lin Dongzhe's fuss, he believed that the Li family could still accept Zhuang Chaoying's voice of making up lessons.
However, after Zhuang Chaoying went to Li's house for a few days to make up for classes, things changed a bit.
When they came to the banker's house before, Li Yiming and Song Xiangyang would come on time almost every day. However, after going to Li's house, every day at the beginning became once every two days, and after more than ten days, it became three days.
once.
Zhuang Chaoying herself was happy and relaxed.
Time flies, spring passes and summer comes.
Summer is coming, and Textile Three Alley has ushered in a great news, that is, the water pipes in the alley have been connected to every household. Finally, everyone no longer has to queue up for public taps. Families with conditions can even do it in their own yards.
One toilet, no need to crowd into public toilets.
After the faucet was turned on, Huang Ling happily brought some snake melon seeds back and discussed it with Song Ying, so the two families set up a stand in the small yard and started planting snake melons.
Snake melon is an annual climbing vine of the genus Trichosanthes in the Cucurbitaceae family. It is named after its fruit shape, which is slender and curved like a snake.
This is an edible plant with high yield, simple planting method and fast maturity, so Huang Ling chose snake melon for planting.
After planting snake melon seeds, just over a month later, the snake melon will mature and bear fruit and is ready for consumption.
As a result, for a long time in the future, snake melon became an edible dish eaten by the Zhuanglin family and even the neighbors in the alley.
A family of five sat at the table and looked at the snake gourd on the table.
Even with Zhou Chen's willpower, after eating snake melon for a month, he really couldn't bear it anymore. Although it wasn't to the point of making him want to vomit when he saw it, he didn't want to eat it anymore.
These days, relying on snake melon, the family's ration is enough to eat, and Zhou Chen has saved some money before, so he can usually take Zhuang Xiaoting and the others to have some snacks.
The final exam was about to begin. Before the final exam, Zhou Chen took the initiative to find his class teacher, Sun Fang, and explained his intention to skip a grade.
"Do you want to go to fifth grade after summer?"
Sun Fang was shocked when she heard Zhou Chen's words. She admitted that Zhou Chen was indeed the smartest student she had ever taught, but the skipping of a grade still surprised her.
"Yes, Teacher Sun, I have already studied the fourth grade courses on my own. I think there will be no problem if I skip to fifth grade."
Zhou Chen said confidently that he would have no problem even jumping to the doctoral level, let alone the fifth grade.

Sun Fang had a serious look on her face: "Zhuang Tuxi, skipping a grade is not something you just want. You need the school's consent. Also, have you told your parents about your idea of skipping a grade? Do they agree?"
Zhou Chen said: "I haven't said it yet, but I think they will agree. Teacher Sun, I can really keep up with the fifth grade courses."
Sun Fang was hesitant. She believed Zhou Chen, because Zhou Chen's academic performance was indeed outstanding and he had the ability to skip a grade. But after all, she was only the head teacher and had no right to decide to skip a grade. She needed the approval of the school leaders.
"I can talk to the school, but this also requires your parents' consent. In this way, before the final exam, you ask your parents to come to the school."
"Okay, Teacher Sun."
After Zhou Chen came home from school that day, he told his parents about the incident. After hearing this, the two behaved differently.
Huang Ling was shocked, but she did not deny it in a hurry, but asked softly: "Tuxi, do you really want to skip a grade? Can you really keep up when you jump from fourth grade to fifth grade?"
Zhuang Chaoying said: "Tuxi, skipping a grade should not just depend on your grades. If you skip a grade to fifth grade, you will be younger than your classmates and your study pressure will become great. Dad actually doesn't agree with you skipping a grade."
Zhou Chen said with great certainty: "Mom, Dad, I am very sure and certain that I want to skip a grade. I have already completed the fourth grade courses by myself. If it were not difficult to jump directly to junior high school, I would like to skip to the first grade of junior high school."
"
Huang Lingling was delighted: "You are quite ambitious. You haven't jumped to the first level yet, but you are thinking of jumping to junior high school."
"Chaoying, Tusi has always had his own opinions. How about we let him give it a try?"
"Are you sure you want him to skip a grade?"
"I think you can try it."
Zhuang Chaoying thought for a while, and over the past six months or so, his youngest son's growth was indeed beyond his expectations, and his grades were as stable as ever.
He hesitated, not because he was worried about his grades, but because he was worried about his age. He was a teacher and knew very well that if there was a big age gap between his classmates, there would be a lot of trouble.
But since the younger son wanted to give it a try and Huang Ling agreed, he no longer objected.
"Then we will go to school to meet the teacher tomorrow."
After meeting with the teachers and discussing with the school leaders, the parents decided to give Zhou Chen a chance to take the fourth grade final exam. If his results were satisfactory, Zhou Chen would be allowed to skip to fifth grade next semester.
In the final exam, Zhou Chen took the fourth grade exam. After the exam, the results came out quickly. Finally, he ranked first in the fourth grade exam. This shocked the school leaders and teachers, and then gave Zhou Chen permission with a wave of his hand.
If you apply to skip a grade, you will go directly to fifth grade at the beginning of next semester.
The news about Zhou Chen skipping to fifth grade next semester was quickly spread by Lin Dongzhe, a loudmouth, and the neighbors were very curious.
Wu Shanshan and Zhang Min, who will also be in fifth grade next semester, even went to the dealer and asked Zhou Chen about skipping a grade. After getting the confirmation, they were both happy.
After the final exam of the primary school, the exams for primary school and junior high school began. Zhuang Tunan went to take the exam for No. 1 Middle School, and not long after, the second college entrance examination after the resumption of the college entrance examination also officially started.
Not long after the college entrance examination ended, Zhuang Chaoying was once again selected as the college entrance examination marking teacher, and went to carry out closed marking with her things.
During the summer vacation, because Zhuang Xiaoting was no longer young, Huang Ling decided to sort out the small attic at the top of the house, rebuild it, and install glass on Zhou Chen's suggestion, so that Zhuang Xiaoting could sleep alone.
In fact, Zhou Chen could also do these tasks, but Huang Ling was worried, so she invited Lin Wufeng and Wu Jianguo to decorate Zhuang Xiaoting's attic in a few days.
Zhuang Xiaoting is very happy. Although it is only a small attic, for her, this is her own space. This is the first time she has her own space in her life, so she likes it very much.
Zhou Chen also specially painted a few paintings on the roof and walls of the attic. Zhuang Xiaoting felt even happier every time she lay in there and saw these paintings.
There was a lot of wood left in the attic, all left by Zhou Chen. He put it under the bed so that he could do some carving when he was bored.
As Zhou Chen and Zhuang Tunan continued to grow up, the wooden bed they had made before was no longer big enough for the two of them, so Zhou Chen didn't want to squeeze in with him anymore, so he took out the camp bed again and placed it there.
Set it up next to the wooden bed in the back room, sleep in it at night and put it away during the day.
There was no way, the current conditions were so difficult, he didn't have a room of his own, so instead of going to the big house to sleep with his parents, he would rather squeeze in the back room.
Early this morning, Zhuang Tunan took Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting to see the results of No. 1 Middle School. At about ten o'clock, Lin Dongzhe's excited cheers came from the alley.
"Report! Brother Tunan passed the exam. Brother Tunan passed the exam. Mom, Brother Tunan passed the exam. Brother Tunan was so awesome. Aunt Huang, Brother Tunan passed the exam."
Before anyone arrived, the voice came first, and it was Lin Dongzhe.
Zhou Chen knew the result and stayed in the house without any reaction, while Huang Ling, who was in the kitchen, rushed to the door with a 'swish'.
