If her eldest grandson could have this ability and pass the entrance exam to a technical secondary school to become a city cadre, then their Shen family would be extremely proud.

Xu Manyue thought for a moment and said, "I don't know much about Xiaoshan's situation, but the probability of Qingqing being admitted to a technical secondary school is still very high."

"Why not let both siblings try it?"

The old lady quickly waved her hands and said, "No, my family can't afford to send all the children to school."

"Baozhu is in elementary school now, and the family can only support Xiaoshan in junior high school. If we spend all the money on their education, how can we as a family survive?"

At this time, the two of them didn't know that they were outside the house.

Shen Xiaoshan came out to use the restroom and unexpectedly saw that the light in the old lady's room was still on, so he walked over and unexpectedly heard all this.

When he heard that it was about his schooling, he stood silently at the door and listened to the voices inside.

Xu Manyue knew that most people in rural areas tended to favor boys over girls, especially the elderly, who only liked boys and not girls.

The old lady is a little better. Although she treats her grandson better, she is not harsh on her two granddaughters. It can only be said that she doesn't like them that much.

But studying affects a person's whole life. Although Shen Qingqing is just a girl, she obviously has the ability to change her destiny through studying.

Xu Manyue still wanted to fight for Shen Qingqing, "Mom, it's just two years of junior high school. After two years, if Qingqing is admitted to a technical secondary school, she will receive a subsidy for her studies. Basically, we don't have to spend any money from our family. When she graduates from technical secondary school, she will be assigned to a job in the city right away."

"At the end of the month, I can earn at least 30 or 40 yuan, which is higher than the average worker's salary. This is just the initial salary. Qingqing has a secondary technical school degree, so she will definitely continue to rise in the future, and her salary will also continue to increase."

"Her future partner will most likely be of the same level as her. Then we'll have two city officials in our family."

"Tell me, Qingqing has made a lot of progress now. How can she not remember the good things about her family? She will help Xiaoshan and her family in the future."

The old lady hesitated.

Calculated this way, the return is indeed high, but the initial investment is also not small, and it is a heavy burden on the family. She is still worried that the girl does not have that ability.

Even if she has that ability, if she becomes too independent in the future, she probably won't be of any help to the family.

Seeing that her thoughts had begun to waver, Xu Manyue struck while the iron was hot and continued, "Mom, if you're really worried, we can do this. Let's call Qingqing over and ask her to write a letter of guarantee to the family."

"If she doesn't get into a technical secondary school after two years of study, she'll have to pay half of the tuition back to her family when she's able to."

"If she gets into a technical secondary school, we won't charge a penny for the tuition. With Qingqing's personality, if she becomes successful in the future, she will definitely not forget the sacrifices her family has made for her."

The old lady hesitated again. She was afraid that the money would be wasted, but she also wanted her family to have a city cadre.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, then let her go. But I need to discuss this with the whole family. After all, we haven't split up yet, and such a big thing needs to be discussed with your eldest and second brothers."

"Also, before that, I need to observe carefully to see if that girl is someone who knows how to be grateful."

After saying this, the old lady thought of her eldest grandson again, so she took Xu Manyue's hand and said, "Old Third Wife, tell me the truth, is there any possibility that Xiaoshan can be admitted to a technical secondary school?"

Xu Manyue thought for a moment and said, "I'll find a chance tomorrow to learn more about Xiaoshan's situation."

If possible, she naturally hopes that both of them can be admitted to technical secondary school.

Outside.

Shen Xiaoshan, who heard everything in the house clearly, left quietly and found Shen Qingqing's house.

Shen Qingqing and Shen Xiaoshan actually slept in the same room, but there was a piece of cloth pulled in the middle to separate the two rooms, and a lot of things were piled up to separate them, so it looked like two rooms.

As for Shen Baozhu, she lived in the same room with Lin Luoxia and her husband.

Shen Xiaoshan returned to the room, walked around to Shen Qingqing's bed, and pushed her awake, "Hey, wake up, wake up."

Shen Qingqing opened her eyes in a daze and saw what seemed to be a figure in the dark room. She widened her eyes and was almost frightened. She subconsciously wanted to call for help.

Shen Xiaoshan quickly covered her mouth and said, "It's me."

Hearing the familiar voice, Shen Qingqing finally calmed down and glared at her younger brother.

Although she and he are twins, siblings, they have never had a good relationship since childhood.

"what are you doing?"

Shen Xiaoshan released his hand covering her mouth and sat aside in silence for a while. "I just heard Third Aunt tell Grandma, do you want to go back to study?"

Shen Qingqing was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she had just mentioned this to her aunt yesterday, and her aunt told her grandmother about it today.

But what does this person mean?

She raised her eyes to look at Shen Xiaoshan, as if she wanted to see through him, "Did you eavesdrop on their conversation?"

Shen Xiaoshan shook his head. "I'm just here to tell you that grandma may not agree to let you go back to study. Our family doesn't have that much money for you to go back to study. You'd better be mentally prepared."

"Also, grandma might call you over soon to ask what you think."

Shen Qingqing was stunned and felt a little complicated. She didn't expect that this person would come to tell her these things.

……

It was the next day in a blink of an eye.

During lunch.

While everyone was there, the old lady suddenly brought up the issue of going to school.

"I heard that as long as I pass the technical secondary school entrance exam, I can be assigned a job as a city cadre, and I also get a subsidy while I'm in school, so it won't cost my family much."

"Qingqing, Xiaoshan, which of you has this idea?"

Shen Qingqing subconsciously glanced at Shen Xiaoshan and bit her lip.

Grandma has always liked this eldest grandson. If he has his own ideas, it will never be her turn.

The other members of the Shen family also looked at the old lady and couldn't help but ask.

"Mom, why did you bring this up all of a sudden?"

Mrs. Shen became excited. "Really? That would be great, Mom. Let's let Xiaoshan go to school. If he can get into a technical secondary school, it would bring honor to our family. We would also have a cadre from the city."

"From now on, everyone in this brigade must be polite to our Shen family."

No one noticed that Shen Qingqing pinched her palms tightly, bit her lips and didn't look up.

Sure enough, it was still like this. Even though Shen Xiaoshan never knew how to care for her or protect her, she still only had this son in her heart.

Boss Shen also thought it was a good idea. The old lady took the initiative to bring up this matter, which meant that she probably had this idea a long time ago.

Anyway, it was his son who benefited, so of course he agreed.

Maybe, in the future, I can really change my fate with the help of this son.

"Mom, let Xiaoshan go."
