Chapter 1196: Chapter 1196 – Extreme Adversity Turns to Prosperity (5)

Until breakfast was over, Shu Jiao hadn’t shown up. Jiaojiao didn’t mind, just thinking she had gone to school first. After all, she’s the homeroom teacher for the third year and also the head of the grade, naturally busier than usual.

Yang Xiaona got up and changed out of Shu Jiao’s clothes. Last night, as usual, she spent the night washing her clothes. Now it’s summertime, and one night is enough for the clothes to dry thoroughly.

After changing clothes, she also washed Shu Jiao’s clothes, hanging them cleanly on the balcony in Ruan Jiaojiao’s room.

After breakfast, Ruan Jiaojiao pulled Yang Xiaona out the door, followed by three boys, with the Ruanlin Family trailing and giving a last reminder: “Come back right after school at noon, grandma’s making something delicious for you. You’ve lost so much weight after just a few days of school.” There’s a string of complaints about Ruan Jiaojiao’s weight loss afterwards.

Ruan Jiaojiao was used to it long ago, she responded from afar with an okay, having already reached the door, just as she bumped into Shu Jiao coming in.

“Mom, didn’t you go to school?” Ruan Jiaojiao looked at Shu Jiao standing at the door, carrying a bag, obviously rushed back, and asked in surprise.

“No, I went out to buy something.” Shu Jiao said, glancing at Yang Xiaona, not in a hurry to pass over the bag in her hand, simply saying: “Let’s go, mom will go to school with you, Xiaolei and Zishu, yesterday Xiaofeng has already asked for leave for you guys for the boys’ dormitory, Xiaona, I’ll accompany you to the dormitory later.”

Because it’s a boarding school, every night there’s a dormitory check. Last night was somewhat rushed, didn’t have time to ask for leave for Yang Xiaona, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it’s better to say something today.

Yang Xiaona nodded, smiled at her: “Thank you, Aunty.”

Shu Jiao saw her smiling sensibly, she had changed back to her previous clothes, and felt deeply moved. Such an understanding child, who knows what her parents think, even favoring sons over daughters, after all, she’s a girl, shouldn’t be treated like this, she couldn’t believe that even if they were poor, they couldn’t afford a piece of cloth…

Shu Jiao sighed inwardly, but didn’t show anything on her face.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt happy, all the way she held Yang Xiaona’s hand, lively and jumping. Halfway there, she suddenly asked Yang Xiaona: “Xiaona, there’s half a day off this afternoon, why don’t you come to our house to play?”

Currently, high school is implementing a monthly holiday format, once a month there’s a three and a half days holiday, but every week Sunday there’s still half a day off, generally with a half-day self-study in the morning, half-day off in the afternoon, evening self-study to resume vacation.

However, this morning isn’t self-study, rather it’s a school opening ceremony, should be released earlier than usual.

Yang Xiaona really likes the Ruan Family, but she has to go back in the afternoon to prepare her food for the coming week. But Ruan Jiaojiao is her first friend, facing her bright and expectant gaze, she couldn’t refuse, could only look at her somewhat troubled.

Beside them, Shu Jiao noticed her difficulty, thought about her daily meals, guessed she had to go back, then said: “Jiaojiao, Xiaona hasn’t gone back for a week, she needs to go back today, stop messing around.”

Ruan Jiaojiao remembered that Yang Xiaona was different from her, she only goes home once a week, she definitely wants to go back today.

She nodded: “Alright then, Xiaona can come to our house next time.”

While speaking, they quickly reached the school gate. After entering, Shu Jiao said to Ruan Jiaojiao: “Jiaojiao, you go in with Xiaoxi first, mom will accompany Xiaona to the dormitory.”
