Chapter 1191: 297: A gentleman of noble character is as meticulous as cutting and carving jade, as if polishing and grinding it_6.
Students of this era generally start school at a later age, and with retakes and repetition of study years, high school students tend to look older.
In the evening, Ni Yang went back and told Zhao Yu about school.
Zhao Yu had never been to school before and was very curious about it, "Great, great, I want to go to school!"
Ni Yang nodded, "Then I'll take you to enroll at school tomorrow."
Zhao Yu raised her right hand, "Mom, I want to go to the same school as Goudan!"
Ni Yang said, "Goudan is only in junior high this year; you're going to high school."
Zhao Yu continued, "I heard from Goudan that their school has a high school too! Anyway, I just want to go to the same school as Goudan!"
Originally, Ni Yang thought about sending Zhao Yu to the city's Third Middle School that she had attended before.
Because she was a bit more familiar with the teachers and the Principal there.
Now, she had to give up that idea; she must respect her child's wishes.
"Sure," Ni Yang nodded, "as long as you've made up your mind."
Zhao Yu continued, "Mom, you don't need to take me; just give me the tuition, and I'll go with Goudan tomorrow."
"Are you sure?" Ni Yang raised an eyebrow slightly.
"I'm sure!" Zhao Yu patted her chest, "I'm already an adult now! What's there for you to worry about?"
"Goudan's grown up!" Ni Yang patted Zhao Yu's head, "Then take the pager with you tomorrow, page me if there's any problem!"
"Okay, no problem."
On the first day, Zhao Yu went to school happily with Goudan.
On the second day, Zhao Yu went to school hopping and jumping along with Goudan.
On the third day, Zhao Yu refused to get out of bed.
Ni Yang came to the room to wake her, "Goudan! Get up and go to school; you'll be late in a moment!"
Zhao Yu covered herself tightly with the blanket, "Mom, I don't want to go to school!"
Going to school is not good at all!
She doesn't like school!
"Why?"
"Because I want to be with you!" Zhao Yu sat up and hugged Ni Yang's waist.
"Get lost," Ni Yang brushed her hands away, "I don't need your company, get up and go to school."
"Mom, I really don't want to go to school..." Zhao Yu was almost crying.
Ni Yang understood Zhao Yu's feelings, as every freshman would go through this phase, which would be alright after an adjustment period.
After much nagging, Zhao Yu still strapped on her backpack reluctantly and set off for school with Goudan.
Upon reaching the village entrance and seeing a stray yellow dog running freely, Zhao Yu said with envy, "Ah! I really envy Da Huang! No need to get up early or go to school, and no homework! If only I were Da Huang!"
Goudan was shocked, "Duoduo, have you gone mad? You actually want to be a dog!"
Zhao Yu said, "All creatures in nature are equal! What's wrong with being a dog! You look down on dogs? Don't forget, your name is Goudan!"
Goudan: "..." Big boss, big boss, can't afford to mess with.
This adjustment period ended quickly, and half a month later, Zhao Yu was on good terms with the little boys in her class.
Everyone started calling her Sister Duo.
Zhao Yu naturally became the big shot of Dongcheng High School.
At noon, Zhao Yu was called to the office by the homeroom teacher.
The homeroom teacher was a middle-aged man with a bit of a Mediterranean hairstyle, slightly overweight, with a belly somewhat protruding, so Zhao Yu called him Old Fatty.
Old Fatty looked at Zhao Yu with rage, "Did you cause that hole on Wang Xiaohai's forehead from the class next door?"
Zhao Yu was taken aback, "What happened? Did he go tattling to you? Hey! That kid! He's learned to snitch!"
Old Fatty banged the desk and stood up, "Zhao Yu! What kind of attitude is that! I'm still in front of you and you behave like this! If I were not here, would you be trying to reach the heavens? As a girl, you don't have any of the ladylike qualities, and all day long, you're roughhousing with a bunch of boys—how unseemly!"
"But I am a boy!"
"Do you want to infuriate me to death?"
Zhao Yu huffed, looking fearless.
Old Fatty glanced at Zhao Yu and sat back down, "Have your parent come by after school tomorrow!"
Calling parents?
Zhao Yu was stunned!
If Ni Yang knew about her "achievements" at school, wouldn't she be done for?
No way!
Ni Yang must not come.
Zhao Yu's eyes darted around, then she said, "Old Fe—"
"What did you just call me?" Old Fatty's eyes bulged out, even bigger than cowbells.
He had heard rumors that Zhao Yu had given him a nickname behind his back, and he didn't quite believe it at first!
He never expected this brat to be so bold!
To dare to call him that to his face!
Zhao Yu immediately corrected herself, "Teacher! Teacher! Please calm down! It was just a slip of the tongue, just a slip. My parents aren't at home, my grandparents are old and can't walk well, can I have my aunt come instead?"
Old Fatty huffed and sat down, "How old can your grandparents be that they can't even walk anymore!"
Zhao Yu said earnestly, "Very, very old! And they're in poor health, what if they get a shock and have a stroke! My aunt is young and strong, she isn't afraid of getting a shock! You can say whatever you want to her!"
Old Fatty thought about it and felt Zhao Yu had a point, "Let your aunt come early tomorrow!"
