Pei Baoshan finished speaking, but his brows knitted together.
Seeing Pei Baoshan’s expression, Wang Cuilan leaned in closer and asked in a low voice, "Why are you frowning? What are you thinking about?"
Pei Baoshan glanced at Wang Cuilan and hesitated for a mont before sharing his speculations, "I was just thinking, since Ranran suddenly brought up school, maybe she wants to go back to school too?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Cuilan also fell into deep thought.
It’s not impossible.
Back then, Jiang Ran couldn’t continue her studies, and her personality changed drastically because of it.
But at that ti, the family’s situation was truly poor, and there was no way to afford schooling for so many kids.
It wasn’t just Jiang Ran; wasn’t it the sa for Pei Shanshan and Pei Yang?
Now, Jiang Ran is making money on her own; if she wants to go back to school, it’s not impossible.
However... Jiang Ran’s situation is sowhat different from Pei Shanshan and Pei Yang’s.
Pei Yang is not even sixteen yet, and Pei Shanshan is even younger.
For both of them to go back and start seventh grade, they’d be older than their classmates but not too noticeably so.
But Jiang Ran... Jiang Ran is already twenty-three this year and has a three-year-old son.
If she wants to go back to school, would anyone accept her?
Pei Baoshan and Wang Cuilan looked at each other, their brows tightly furrowed, clearly quite troubled by the situation.
The store was quiet, and neither Jiang Ran nor the others spoke, but even though Pei Baoshan and Wang Cuilan were deliberately speaking in low voices, Jiang Ran and the other three still heard them.
Pei Shanshan and Pei Yang didn’t dare say a word but were sneakily watching Jiang Ran.
Being secretly watched by Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan, and hearing the dilemma from Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan, Jiang Ran felt a mix of amusent and exasperation.
"Mom, Dad," Jiang Ran spoke up, her voice neither too loud nor too soft.
As Pei Baoshan and Wang Cuilan looked her way, Jiang Ran continued, "You don’t need to worry, I’m not planning to go back to school."
Upon hearing this from Jiang Ran, Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan felt a bit embarrassed.
They thought they had spoken quietly enough, but Jiang Ran still heard them.
Without waiting for them to speak, Jiang Ran continued, "I don’t intend to go back to school, but I can study on my own. Not just , Pei Yang and Shanshan can learn with too. Reading more books is always beneficial, but it isn’t the only way forward. What I’m thinking is to manage both aspects; the business at the store can’t be neglected, but when we have spare ti, we can also do so studying."
Upon hearing Jiang Ran’s words, Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan nodded repeatedly, "It’s good that you have a plan, Ranran! Shanshan, Pei Yang, make sure to listen to your sister-in-law."
Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan exchanged a glance, each feeling a bit helpless.
Reading is one thing, but from what Jiang Ran said, they would have to study middle school subjects?
They are different from Jiang Ran; when Jiang Ran was in school, she was genuinely good at it and enjoyed studying.
But both of their grades were average, and when they couldn’t go to school, they actually felt a bit relieved.
Relieved that they didn’t have to endure the struggle anymore.
Unexpectedly, after all these years, they still couldn’t escape it.
Regardless of what they thought in their hearts, they didn’t dare say anything and followed Jiang Ran’s arrangents.
After clearing things up, Jiang Ran temporarily set the matter aside and focused on teaching Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan how to make peach cakes.
From adding water to the dough to shaping and baking, Jiang Ran explained as thoroughly as possible.
