I was reborn after my cousin stole my life.

Chapter 215: Teacher Shen Under Great Pressure

As soon as Yuan Xiu returned to the hospital, Hao Jia came out of the pharmacy to greet her: "How did it go? Did you pass the score requirement? Did Wang Xiaomei fail the exam? She came back with her head down, looking like a wilted eggplant!"

Yuan Xiu nodded and answered her two questions.

"I knew it!" Hao Jia clapped her hands with delight. "With your diligence, it would be strange if you didn't pass the exam!"

Quite a few people at the hospital passed the score requirement; most of those who took the exam passed.

The fact that so many college graduates were coming out of the hospital at once was a good thing for the hospital leaders to see as a way to boost their performance. So even though the admission notices hadn't been issued yet, the hospital gave bonuses to employees like Yuan Xiu who had passed the cutoff score.

So when Yuan Xiu got off work that day, she carried her new schoolbag home. Inside the schoolbag were water bottles, stationery, notebooks, pens, ink, and other essential items for going to school.

……

"Hey! Did you hear? Yuan Xiu, Battalion Commander Sun's sister, and Political Commissar Wang's daughter all got into university!"

News always spreads fastest in the compound, and within two days, it was known to everyone.

When military dependents sit together and chat, they inevitably exchange a few words.

During this period, the most talked-about topic is undoubtedly related to the college entrance examination.

Before the exam, everyone guessed which family member would take it.

After the exam, people would guess which family would pass.

While some people keep a low profile, others boast loudly that they are certain they will pass the exam.

Now that the cutoff scores are out, the topic has shifted back to who passed and who didn't.

"I wouldn't say I passed the exam, since I haven't received the acceptance letter yet."

"Tsk! With scores already above the cutoff, receiving acceptance letters is just a matter of time! Would the country really give up on a talented person?"

"That's right! But I heard that Battalion Commander Sun's sister went to a vocational school?"

"That's right, it's a vocational high school. Vocational high school is great. You can graduate and start working after two years. Whether you go back to your original unit or are assigned to another unit, your future prospects are guaranteed, and your salary will be higher than before."

"That's right. Battalion Commander Sun's sister is not young anymore. She can find a partner right after graduating from university. If she has to study for four years like a college student, she will be in her mid-twenties and it will delay her from finding a partner."

"I'm telling you, you're all worrying unnecessarily! Finding a partner is easy, just find someone from your own school. They're all intellectuals, it's much easier than looking elsewhere!"

"Exactly!"

"The most impressive one has to be Yuan Xiu. She scored high enough to get into a university! She managed to work, have a baby, and take the university entrance exam all at the same time!"

"She loves learning! Back when she asked Guiying to borrow textbooks, they laughed at her, but look at her now! She got into university…that's amazing!"

"The most amazing one has to be Teacher Shen; she's the one who tutored all three of them!"

"Yes, yes, yes! I need to transfer my child to Ms. Shen's class right away, and in two years he'll get into university!"

The military dependents were quick to jump to conclusions; as soon as they finished speaking, they stood up, intending to talk to the school leaders.

"Me too! Me too!"

Yuan Xiu happened to run into the military families who were going to see the school leaders.

"Xiao Yuan's off work!"

"Congratulations, Xiao Yuan! You've become a college student!"

"Yes, I just got off work. It's not time yet. You're saying that too early, ladies," Yuan Xiu said with a smile as she chatted with everyone.

"Oh, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Why are you carrying two bags?"

Knowing that the other bag was given to Yuan Xiu by her workplace, she added, "The hospital is still the best. Little Yuan will definitely become a doctor in the future, right? Being a doctor is good. When you graduate and go back to the hospital, I'll come to see you!"

Yuan Xiu laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, please don't say that. I wish I could stay in the hospital forever and never see you again."

The military dependent who was speaking slapped his mouth, "I blurted it out all of a sudden. Okay, Xiao Yuan, you're busy. We'll go to the school leaders' house."

Seeing Yuan Xiu's confusion, he added, "Go to the school administration and transfer your child to Teacher Shen's class! She's amazing! All her students go on to university!"

Yuan Xiu: "..."

"I'm not that good!" Teacher Shen waved her hand in refusal. "I can't just cram all the students into my class! It will cause a serious imbalance in the student ratio!"

The principal gestured for her to sit down and talk. "That's what I was thinking too, but everyone wants to be in your class. What am I supposed to do? Some are easy to refuse, but others are really hard to refuse!"

Many cadres' family members came to his home. They didn't come to the school to block him, but they came to his home. If he didn't agree, they would still come every day.

The head of academic affairs suggested, "How about this? We'll set up an intensive review class for Teacher Shen to lead. We'll select some promising students from several graduating classes to help them prepare for next year's college entrance exam! Teacher Shen won't be teaching the regular classes for now. If the results are good next year, Teacher Shen can then specialize in leading the intensive review class!"

The principal's eyes lit up: "That's a great suggestion! Ms. Shen, you'll be in charge of the college entrance exam preparation class from now on! I trust you with these promising students!"

Teacher Shen was utterly dejected: ...She's worried!

How did this happen to her?

She's under a lot of pressure!

……

A few days after Yuan Xiu's exam results came out, An Hui was leaving.

Jiang Zhou drove them to the station to meet up with Uncle Chen and the others. Yuan Xiu and Aunt Zhao also took the children to see them off.

"Your family is doing well. If anything happens, just write or send me a telegram. Send me photos of the children regularly, and don't make me chase you for them."

In the car, An Hui held Zhizhi in her arms, looking at Qiao Qiao with a face full of reluctance.

The two children seemed to know that their grandmother was leaving, and they stared at her with their big, round eyes.

Even Qiaoqiao, who was in his mother's arms, stretched out his little hands, wanting his grandma to hold him.

"Don't worry, Mom, I'll send you photos every few months," Yuan Xiu said.

In order to take photos of the children more often, this mother-in-law left behind all the cameras she had brought.

An Hui sighed, lowered her head, and kissed the two children on the forehead.

"My darlings, Grandma will come to see you again when she has time."

Zhizhi: "Oh?"

Qiaoqiao: "Eeee-ya-ya!"

Zhizhi turned around and glanced at her brother. "Huh?"

Qiaoqiao slapped her little hand in anger.

An Hui laughed: "I don't know what these two little ones are talking about, but they seem to be having a lot of fun. Seeing how cute they are, I really don't want to leave."

"Then why don't you stay here? I'll turn back now?" Jiang Zhou said.

An Hui looked up and rolled her eyes at him, not caring whether he could see her or not, "Do you think I'm going to live in your house forever!"

"Hmph!" Jiang Zhou sneered, "You really know how to distinguish between your home and mine. My home isn't your home, and your home isn't mine, right?"

An Hui pointed at Jiang Zhou and complained to Yuan Xiu, "Look at him! He's still making me angry even after I've left. You have to teach him a lesson for his bad temper! Don't let Qiao Qiao and Zhi Zhi learn from him."

Yuan Xiu smiled and said, "Mom, Jiang Zhou's words are also my words. And the place where Jiang Zhou and I live is your home. You can come back whenever you want. We will always be waiting for you at home."

It's not a welcome, it's a wait. A welcome is for guests, a wait is for family.

An Hui was touched. She reached out and hugged Yuan Xiu, saying, "I know."
