Chapter 644: I Don't Believe
"I'm Back in 1990" is currently being serialized on Cola Novels and is not to be missed!
Upon hearing the news, Principal Zhou rushed over. He had already met Huang Xiaochuan once before.
Immediately after that meeting, Huang Xiaochuan offered to make a small contribution to the primary education cause in China, such as donating some supplies to Shengai Road Primary School, arranging for his affiliated companies to replace equipment in the school's factory, and providing some business orders. Of course, this had nothing to do with the school selection fee, since Huang Zeji and Huang Ruiying entered the school through their aunt's selection quota and paid the full school selection fee. Donating some supplies and introducing some business were mainly for the long-term educational development of the school, as it could benefit more people.
It was precisely because of this that Principal Zhou and some school leaders learned that Jiang Rong and Asia's richest man were related as uncle and sister-in-law. They were utterly shocked! They never imagined that the usually unassuming Teacher Jiang had such a background. Previously, when Jiang Rong, an outsider from a small town, was suddenly transferred to a key primary school in Shanghai, everyone assumed it was because of her status as a military dependent that she was given preferential treatment in Shanghai. They never expected...
It's all because Teacher Jiang is usually too low-key. Logically speaking, with such a younger brother-in-law, why would she need to come to work? But Teacher Jiang doesn't have that thought and continues to work diligently in her ordinary teaching position.
"Professor Huang, why didn't you call me when you arrived? Look how impolite this is!" As soon as they met, Principal Zhou tried to get close to Huang Xiaochuan.
Huang Xiaochuan smiled, extended his hand to shake hands with the principal, and exchanged a few pleasantries with him.
"Principal Zhou, you're too kind. I'm just an ordinary parent dropping my child off at school. We'll be leaving soon, really. Please don't be so polite; we'll have a long future together!"
Huang Xiaochuan knew that China was a society based on personal connections, and such things were unavoidable. So he had to deal with it, since his children would be studying there.
Seeing Huang Xiaochuan's firm attitude, Principal Zhou quickly nodded and said, "That's right! Next time you come, you must visit my office and give us some guidance. You are an internationally renowned economist, and your suggestions will surely be invaluable."
Ding Yi couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing. He quickly covered it up with a cough, and Qi Huan glared at him unhappily.
After finally managing to coax Principal Zhou away, Ding Yi couldn't hold back any longer: "I'm telling you, internationally renowned economist, do you really need an elementary school to teach them? I think they're treating you like a cash cow, hoping you'll give them some ideas on how to make big money!"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Alright, hurry up and go. Are you waiting for them to invite you to stay for dinner?" Huang Xiaochuan rolled his eyes at Ding Yi.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi hurriedly said, "I just told you we're having dinner at my new house this Saturday, and you haven't said whether you're going or not. Why don't you just say something?"
Before Huang Xiaochuan could speak, Yu Xiang interrupted, "Of course we'll go. You've moved to a new house, so Xiaochuan and I will go visit your new home and congratulate you."
At this moment, Qi Huan, who was holding Yu Xiang's arm, instructed, "Don't bring anything. We have everything we need. It's just the two of us getting together, so don't be so formal."
Ding Yi agreed with Qi Huan's approach, saying with a fawning smile, "That's right, don't bring anything else, just bring Duo Duo and Xiao Dong. I really love your two darlings."
Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaochuan couldn't help but snort coldly. Yu Xiang heard this, glared at him, and then smiled at Qi Huan, saying, "Then it's settled. Our family of four will go to your house this Saturday."
After the two families parted ways at the school gate, Huang Xiaochuan began to complain: "That guy is obviously after our daughter, and you still went and offered yourself up? What kind of mother are you?"
Yu Xiang rolled her eyes at him: "I think you're just being nosy and meddling in things that don't concern you. Is this something that Ding Yi and his wife can decide? Or something that you and I can decide in the future? Let me tell you this: if your daughter wants to be like this, no one can stop her. If she doesn't want to, you can't force her to give in. Don't you know what kind of temper your own daughter has? Just like you, stubborn!"
Huang Xiaochuan thought about it for a moment, and indeed, he couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing his reaction, Yu Xiang became even more furious: "You still have the nerve to laugh? What will you do when your precious daughter becomes unruly in the future?"
For Huang Xiaochuan, who is a father for the first time in two lifetimes, it would be a lie to say that he doesn't spoil his child. The main reason is that Huang Ruiying is the only girl in the Huang family so far, spanning three generations. Naturally, she receives all the love and pampering from the whole family. In comparison, Huang Zeji receives far less fatherly love than his sister.
During the long break, Miao Hua, the head of the first grade and the homeroom teacher of Class 1(5), saw Jiang Rong looking at the first grade from a distance.
He then walked over to her and said with a smile, "What's wrong? You're worried? You want to come and see for yourself?"
When Jiang Rong saw that it was Miao Hua, she asked her, "Has my niece been naughty?"
"That's great! You can tell this child is very smart."
Jiang Rong chuckled and said, "You'll see in time. You are indeed clever, but you're also quite good at causing trouble. Please keep an eye on things for me and let me know if anything happens."
Miao Hua took Jiang Rong's hand and said, "Do you need to teach me this? What's our relationship?"
Suddenly, Miao Hua removed his hand from Jiang Rong's arm, his expression serious. "I haven't even had a chance to ask you yet. You've been keeping this a secret for a long time, haven't you? How come you've never told me that your brother-in-law is the richest man in Asia? Do you still consider me a friend?"
Jiang Rong rolled her eyes at Miao Hua: "Do you think I'm so bored that I'd go around telling everyone this with a megaphone?"
Miao Hua asked with a curious look, "Tell me quickly how the richest family lives? Let us know how the rich are different from us."
Jiang Rongyi said in a concise and shocked tone, "There's nothing special about it. It's just that the house I live in is a bit bigger, and I eat and dress better. Otherwise, I'm just like an ordinary person."
"Why can't I believe it?" Miao Hua certainly didn't believe it.
Jiang Rong shrugged and said, "I don't know about other families, but that's how it is with my parents-in-law and brother-in-law."
In the evening, Huang Xiaochuan returned home to find that the two little ones had already been picked up by Yu Xiang. Huang Zeji was organizing the new textbooks that had just been distributed that day, while the little devil was chattering away to her mother about what happened at school that day.
"Mom, Ding Xiaojia is too timid. He doesn't even dare to tell the teacher when he needs to pee. I told the teacher for him, otherwise he would have peed in his pants."
"Mom, there are so many more people in elementary school than in kindergarten, you even have to queue to use the toilet."
"Mom, Hong Xiaoyue sits in front of me. She swapped her rubber band with me after class. Look, there's a rabbit on it."
When the two little ones saw their father return, Huang Zeji didn't move from his spot, just called out "Dad" and continued doing what he was doing, while the little devil abandoned her mother and ran to Huang Xiaochuan's side in a flash.
"dad!"
Huang Xiaochuan patted the little devil's head: "What did you eat for lunch today?"
The little devil counted the dishes on her fingers and told her father: "My aunt took us out to eat. There was braised chicken legs, celery, fish, and oh yeah, winter melon and pork rib soup."
Because the school is far from home, the two little ones ate lunch at school with their aunt and cousin Huang Zemian. Huang Zemian, the eldest grandson of the Huang family, is in the fourth grade this year and also attends Shengai Road Primary School.
The three cousins are now attending the same school. Due to the school district, Maowa attends a primary school near their home, mainly because it is convenient for Huang Erhe to pick him up and drop him off. Since that primary school is also very close to his workplace, they did not send Maowa to Jiang Rong's school.
