Reborn before the famine, kicking away the scumbag's family and living a carefree life.

99. Fighting (4)

The next morning, when everyone went to work, they were all talking about how promising the Su family's children were.

It is said that Su Jinxuan went to middle school and actually skipped a grade, going directly from the first year of junior high to the third year.

They were supposed to repeat the first year of junior high, but now they're going straight to the third year.

It's not like anyone can just choose which grade to be in. I heard that the principal personally supervised his exams. He completed all the junior high school exam papers and achieved excellent results in every subject. The principal was satisfied and made an exception to allow him to directly enter the junior high school.

Later, they mentioned Su Jinru's son, An Ran.

Anran was also in the same boat. He was supposed to be in first grade, but he passed the exams and got full marks in both subjects. The principal agreed to let him go directly to third grade.

Another piece of news is that Su Jinru's daughter, An Xin, has also started first grade.

Normally, children can only start primary school at the age of seven, and some families don't send their children to school until they are eight or nine years old. But Anxin is only five years old, and the principal has already accepted her.

I heard that the principal personally asked Su Jinru for it, saying that since Su Jinru's son was so outstanding, her daughter must be just as good, so he suggested that she simply let her daughter attend first grade.

Qi Zhengyang was both surprised and shocked to hear this, but he was also quite pleased.

After all, An Ran and An Xin are also his children.

These two children had excellent academic performance in their previous lives, and many people say that it's because they had a good father who knew how to educate children.

But now, the two children are even more remarkable than in their previous life. When people mention them, they only say that they are Su Jinru's children, but they never mention him, their father, at all.

Children are closer to whoever they live with. Qi Zhengyang regrets that he didn't insist on getting custody of the child when he got divorced.

These two children not only had a good life in their previous lives, but were also very filial.

No, such a good child shouldn't be allowed to fall into Su Jinru's hands. We have to find a way to get the child back.

Those people continued to discuss it.

"I heard that this year, other people's children haven't been idle at all; they've been studying at home!"

"How can I study at home when there are no teachers to teach me?"

"I heard that Su Jinru bought some books for them so they could study on their own."

How can I learn on my own?

"Yes! I'm also puzzled. How can they learn on their own without a teacher? But other people's children are so smart, they really do learn on their own."

"Yes! If they lived with Qi Zhengyang, then Qi Zhengyang would definitely have taught them. But they lived with Su Jinru, and Su Jinru couldn't possibly have taught them; she herself never went to school. So the children must have learned on their own!"

“Other mothers are smart too. Look at Su Jinru, she researched and developed new products at home. If it were me, you, or them, who would have that ability?”

"Yes! Su Jinru grows crops and does research in her own yard, and her children don't go hungry, so she still has the mind to study. As for us, let alone the children, even the adults can only lie in bed, starving and barely clinging to life. Who has the mind to study?"

"They're growing grain in their own homes, and they have official approval documents from higher authorities! So they're not violating any rules."

"Don't misunderstand, I wouldn't dare say she violated the rules. If it weren't for her growing grains at home and improving new products, we might still be starving!"

"Yes, yes, no one said she violated the rules."

Previously, Du Mei and Zeng Jianying were locked in a dark room for three days and three nights for criticizing Su Jinru. They were so hungry that they were barely alive. They dared not speak out of turn, for fear that they would also be locked in a dark room.

Moreover, what they did was truly a good thing that benefits everyone.

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhengyang recalled that before the famine, Su Jinru had asked An Ran to borrow a complete set of elementary school textbooks and some storybooks from him.

It turned out that during the year-long famine, Su Jinru had her children study at home.

No wonder the child is favored by the school and can skip grades.

Qi Zhengyang had encountered some very talented students before and encouraged them to skip grades, but at most they would only skip one grade. For example, someone who should have been in first grade would skip directly to second grade.

It's rare for someone like An Ran or Su Jinxuan to skip two grades at once.

Qi Zhengyang admired the foresight of a woman with little formal education.

At least he himself hadn't thought of it.

Furthermore, Su Jinru openly grew grain at home and even obtained a document from higher authorities to protect her.

She's bold and daring.

She was completely different from the timid woman he remembered.

No wonder her house was always kept closed year-round, and she never let anyone in, including her family.

Qi Zhengyang had previously thought she was hiding a large amount of grain at home, but it turned out she was even more brazen, secretly growing grain at home.

If you grow your own food, you won't go hungry.

Despite being reborn, he couldn't come up with a way to combat the famine, no matter how hard he tried.

You could only say she was lucky; even God was on her side.

He hid his grain in the cellar, but people dug it up. She, on the other hand, brazenly grew grain in the yard, and no one noticed.

Why is she so lucky? Why is he so unlucky?

That day, the two children walked home together after school.

Seeing the smiles on the two children's faces, Su Jinru felt a little relieved.

But seeing the conspicuous white gauze on her son's head, she still felt a pang of heartache.

Anran said, "Mom, the principal came to our class today and warned the students not to laugh at others. If anyone violates this rule, they will be expelled and will not be allowed to come to school anymore."

"Principal Zhao even went to An Xin's class to tell those students that they were not allowed to bully An Xin."

Anran added, "Mom, I specifically observed that Anxin isn't the shortest in her class; she's more of an average height. So you can't tell from her appearance that she's the shortest."

Su Jinru hadn't expected this situation.

For more than a year, the other children were constantly hungry, and even now, a child can only eat two ounces of sweet potato per meal, which is not enough to keep them full. But Anran and Anxin are able to eat their fill.

Children at this age are growing rapidly; how can they grow tall if they are constantly hungry?

And you know what? In the past year or so, Anran and Anxin have both grown a lot taller, taller than their peers.

Although Anxin is two years younger than Anran, Anxin is only slightly shorter than her brother.

Because girls grow faster than boys before the age of fourteen.

So it's not surprising that An Xin isn't the shortest in the class.

Therefore, An Xin doesn't appear to be weak in class, so she won't become a target for bullying.

Those who like to bully others tend to choose those who are not paid much attention by teachers, have no presence in the class, are ignored by everyone, have unsupportive parents, are timid and cowardly, and appear weak.
