Quick Wear: Reversing Life

Chapter 244: Escape from the Mountains (25)

On the first day, we were given books and taught some commonplace things, but there was no formal class.

After school in the afternoon, Xiaocao went to the elementary school to pick up Xiaohua.

In the car, Xiaocao asked Xiaohua how she felt today.

"No one talks to me."

Xiao Cao comforted him, "It's okay, today is only the first day. Where's the teacher? What do you think of the teacher?"

Xiaohua thought for a moment and said, "Teacher, you are very gentle."

"If you need help, you can ask the teacher, she will help you solve the problem."

When Xiaocao returned home, she came out of the bathroom before going to bed and saw Xiaohua lying on her bed reading a picture book.

After moving into Luyuan, although they both had their own rooms, Xiaohua was afraid of sleeping alone and always wanted to share a bed with Xiaocao at night.

Xiaohua is only six years old now. She has been sleeping with the original owner since she was a child. It is normal for her to be afraid of sleeping alone.

Xiaocao dried her hair, lifted the quilt and sat on the bed.

"Xiaohua, you know what your full name is, right?"

Xiaohua raised her head: "Chen, Fang... Fang?"

"Chen Fangfei."

Xiaocao brought paper and pen and taught her to write her name.

"Chen is the same last name as your mother. Her name is Chen Shanshan, and your name is Chen Fangfei now."

"The spring grass is in full bloom, and the doors of the tower are opening at dawn."

"Fangfei means the fragrance of flowers and plants."

"This is the name grandpa gave you." Xiaocao said.

Xiaohua asked, "What about my sister?"

"Li Youcao."

"The grass on the plain withers and grows green again every year." The cycle continues year after year, and life continues forever.

"W-why, sister, isn't your last name Chen?"

Xiaocao smoothed Xiaohua's hair and said slowly, "I can only stay here if I have the surname Li."

Chen Xianhua's attitude towards her was ambiguous from the beginning. If she also changed her surname to Chen, it would be hard not to arouse Chen Xianhua's suspicion.

The Chen family is probably on guard against her now.

Xiaohua didn't understand what her sister meant and just nodded ignorantly.

The first-year junior high school courses were easy for Xiaocao, and her life gradually became a routine.

She commutes between school and home on weekdays, and on weekends goes to the nursing home with Xiaohua to have dinner with Chen Shanshan and Chen Xianhua.

Most of the students in the class have known each other since elementary school and have formed fixed small groups.

Xiaocao had her own things to do and had no common topics with them, so she basically went to and from school and to the cafeteria for lunch alone every day.

Li Yanshu is in the third year of junior high school and is also the president of the junior high school student union.

After all, he was ordered by his elders to take better care of this new sister. After observing her for many days, he found that she always kept to herself and thought she was being isolated.

So Li Yanshu took advantage of the break between meals to sit next to Xiaocao.

Seeing Xiaocao's surprised look, Li Yanshu smiled gently: "Are you adapting well here?"

Xiaocao nodded: "It's okay."

Li Yanshu said, "Well, if you need any help, feel free to ask me." He paused, then added, "You can also ask Jiahui, she's in the same class as you."

Li Yanshu saw from the corner of his eye that Chen Jiahui was sitting not far away, eating with three girls.

The grass said, "I understand."

Li Yanshu was very sincere, but faced with Xiaocao's indifferent feedback, he didn't know how to respond.

Xiaocao knew that Li Yanshu was a good child in the eyes of his teachers and parents, and a good role model in the eyes of his classmates.

There is basically no negative reputation about him in school. He is humble and polite, and is always courteous to both teachers and classmates.

But in Xiaocao's eyes, he was just a young boy, and Xiaocao didn't need his help.

What's more, she was quite satisfied with this situation where no one disturbed her, and she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Xiaocao left after finishing her meal.

Not long after, someone walked up to Li Yanshu and asked, "Who is that person? You seem to be paying special attention to her these days."

"A younger sister at home."

Ji Zixuan teased: "You really have a lot of sisters."

"But compared to Sister Jiahui, this sister seems to dislike you a little?"

Li Yanshu said, "We've only known each other for a short time, so it's normal that we're not familiar with each other. Don't spread rumors and cause trouble for others."

Ji Zixuan raised his eyebrows: "Which of the things about you in this school did I say?"

"Just a reminder." Li Yanshu stood up and took the plate away, then glanced at his foot: "Is your foot injury healed?"

Ji Zixuan put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Good morning, let's play ball after school?"

...

This elite aristocratic school offers not only several main subjects but also other courses.

For example, there are weekly programming classes, science experiment classes, art classes, physical education classes, etc.

These are basically elective courses. For example, in art class, you can choose painting or music. Painting is divided into Chinese painting and oil painting, and music is divided into vocal music and instrument performance.

Physical education classes are not just about exercising. Students can choose from a variety of sports, such as football, tennis, equestrianism, rowing, etc.

In addition, there are sociology lecture courses that can enable students to have a more comprehensive understanding of the social operation mechanism and cultivate a sense of social responsibility and civic awareness.

For the sake of peace and quiet, Xiaocao chose music appreciation for art class and tennis for physical education class.

However, among these courses, Xiaocao still thinks that programming is the most interesting and what he can learn is the most practical.

The main subjects were very easy for her. Apart from class time, she basically spent her time studying the assignments assigned by the teacher in the programming course.

The school equips each student with a computer, which they can use at will during their spare time.

Life was peaceful for a few days.

One day, when Xiaocao and Xiaohua returned home together, they found that Xiaohua seemed to be in a particularly low mood.

He was much quieter during meals than usual.

Xiao Cao asked: "What's wrong? What happened today that made you unhappy?"

After Xiaocao asked repeatedly, Xiaohua finally told her the reason.

"They said I was a country bumpkin."

It turned out that Xiaohua sometimes didn't change her habit of saying "I", and because she was thin and small with yellow skin, some naughty boys said she was a country girl.

Xiaocao picked up a piece of pork ribs for Xiaohua and said slowly, "Xiaohua, do you think that "country bumpkin" is used as an insult?"

Xiaohua was anxious and wanted to say something but didn't know how to express it.

Xiao Cao said, "I know. You mean to say that their tone of voice when they teased you was very annoying, right?"

Xiaohua nodded.

"If you want them to stop teasing you like this, then we'll work on breaking the habit."

"You'll definitely encounter many such situations in the future. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. If the reason someone mocks you happens to be one of your weaknesses, then you can choose whether or not to change."

"But Xiaohua, 'country boy' isn't a word that should be used to make fun of."

"Who among those living in the city today doesn't have ancestors who were farmers in the countryside? There shouldn't be a hierarchy between the countryside and the city, and farmers are the ones we should respect. Otherwise, where do the rice and vegetables we eat come from?"
