Chapter 300

"It's a pity for Momo Guo and Little Ping'an," Zhi Xia said. How could she possibly feel sorry for Pei Jianguo? In her heart, it had always been only Ping'an.

If Pei Yuhano in that life was just unlucky in childhood, while Ping'an also had physical deficiencies, plus this child was born and raised in front of him, and she was also a mother herself, it was inevitable that she would be a little more emotional.

When it comes to daughter-in-law Momo Guo, Pei Jing didn't want to express any opinion.

As he said, they were all adults now, and everyone should bear the consequences of their own choices.

Besides, in his opinion, Momo Guo's purpose was not simple when she married Pei Jianguo. Although Pei Jianguo was not a good person, these years with Elder Brother taking care of them and subsidizing them, at least they would not be wronged in terms of money, living conditions and mother and son.

As for their husband and wife feelings, no one else could intervene in that. Otherwise, even Wang Yue, who was so upset at the time, would not have failed to stop their marriage.

After a brief gathering, Pei Jing soon left.

When he opened the door, he saw the lingering An Zhiang outside.

"What are you doing? I knocked on your dormitory door for a long time and you didn't open it." Anyway, there were no outsiders around. An Zhiang sat casually in the position of his big uncle, looking casual.

He curiously peeked into the room and wondered, "You're not doing something bad alone, are you?"

Seeing him talk more and more crookedly, Pei Jing unceremoniously began to drive people away. "If you are really free, you might as well run an extra 5 kilometers to improve your strength."

"Don't..." Having been taught many lessons, An Zhiang quickly begged for mercy. "I have something to do. I just caught a wild piglet on the mountain. It happens to be an extra meal for Instructor Pei. Let's go barbecue!" Pei Jing was half pulled and half dragged by An Zhiang.

After dawn, he still chose to call Pei Jianguo during his work time.

Although the matter was over yesterday, since the matter involved Gao's people, and that person was Gao Second Sister, they had to be more careful to prevent the possibility of Gao Second Sister making trouble in the middle.

He told Pei Jianguo about Gao Second Sister's identity and hoped that he could be smarter this time and not be used by people with intentions again.

The matter was over.

Before Momo Guo intended to divorce Pei Jianguo, it was impossible for her to make things too stiff.

So after Pei Jianguo came to find her, she took the opportunity to get out of the affair and went back with him.

With Gao Second Sister not wandering in front of her eyes, life returned to its usual calm.

The cherry and jujube trees in the backyard grew very vigorously. It was the season to eat cherries. The umbrella-shaped cherry tree pruned branches were full of red fruit, which made people delighted.

Chenye and Wanqing each took a basket to pick cherries, while Momo Guo and Zhi Xia picked the higher ones.

"Sister-in-law, the variety of this cherry tree in your family seems to be different from the ones in our side. The fruit grown feels much bigger, the color is heavier, it tastes sweeter when eaten, not sour at all, and it is also high-yielding. Where did you get the tree? Seeing it makes me want to plant two trees too."

Although her home was an apartment building, there was still open space around it, so it was still possible to plant two fruit trees.

It was just that, unlike here which was their own backyard, they would have to guard it carefully when the fruits ripened, otherwise someone else might pick the fruits.

"It was Chenye’s dad's friend. If you want to plant it, I'll let him give you two trees. You can harvest them next year after planting them down." Of course, she couldn't tell Sister Zhang about the tree she got from her space.

"That would be great. I’ll buy the trees myself then." This was where Momo Guo was smarter. She knew she couldn’t expect everything cheap even with family, but it was normal to get some convenience with family ties, but she couldn’t expect people to help get trees for her and still pay for them.

"It’s fine." Zhi Xia said casually.

More than half of the cherries on the cherry tree were ripe. Three baskets were picked from the template-sized baskets. Zhi Xia let Momo Guo take away a basket, gave half a basket to the old lady next door, half a basket to Sister Zhang, and the rest was going to be sent to the An family.

As for the family's own consumption, there were still cherries on the tree. More would ripen when the time came, and even if they couldn't finish eating them, the remaining ones would just rot.

Besides, this cherry tree was originally abundant in harvest. She still had the space to cheat. Her children at home never lacked food. "Mom, come here." Chenye called her from inside the house.

Sister Zhang had gone home to deliver cherries. Zhi Xia hurried in to ask him, "What's up?"

"I want to discuss something with you." Chenye rarely smiled so flatteringly.

As the eldest son in the family, he had always had the demeanor of being a brother. Both Pei Jing and Zhi Xia were also very aware to establish his prestige as the eldest brother for him. He was also very patient in disciplining his younger siblings, and was always the most sensible one.

But this childish side made Zhi Xia clearly realize that he was still just a child.

"What does baby want to discuss with me?" Zhi Xia rarely hugged him now. It would be very strenuous for her to hug a seven or eight-year-old child. Only when Pei Jing came back could he still enjoy his father's embrace.

"I want to skip grades and go to fourth grade. I've already learned what I'm learning now at Grandpa's house. It feels so meaningless to study it again. It's a pure waste of time." As this semester was nearing its end, so he eagerly made this request.

Chenye was different from Wanqing. That girl was quite smart, she was just lazy and didn't like studying. She loved to run around outside more.

Chenye never liked going out since he was little. He liked to lock himself in the room and then go to the space to play with building blocks and puzzles.

Those puzzles with thousands of pieces that looked daunting to Zhi Xia, he could already complete them alone.

Also because his needs were different from others, Zhi Xia reluctantly expanded a toy room for him.

After all, except for him and Wanqing, the triplets and Little Six still shared a bedroom. Star coins were hard to come by. She wanted to improve their physique and abilities when the children came of age, so she could only make do like this for now. She planned to slowly expand it later when she earned more.

"Does Grandpa know? What did he say?" An Jingzhi must have more experience in education.

When she still felt that children should enjoy their childhood well before going to school, An Jingzhi had already guided them to work hard towards learning.

The effect was also remarkable. Wenqing and Chenye were very successful in this regard. Although Wanqing was more playful, she was also slowly getting into studying. The two siblings even tied for first place in the last exam.

"Grandpa suggested that I take it slow and try skipping to third grade first, but I still feel that I already know all those stuff and learning it again is meaningless."

An Jingzhi gave such a suggestion not because he was afraid Chenye couldn't keep up with schoolwork, but because many children started school very late for various reasons. It was very common for children to just start first grade at the age of 10. The fourth and fifth graders were quite tall already. He was mainly still worried that Chenye would have a psychological gap when he reached fourth grade and couldn't play with other children.

In these years, the most relaxing thing for Zhou Nan was not having to take care of several children's studies. An Jingzhi didn't even trust her to be in charge. Only in this matter would he take things into his own hands completely.
