Now he sowhat understood the rules of the System. The experiences that were blurry and hard to recall were hers, but the mories that highlighted personal abilities, like the piano and violin, were easy to rember. This is why the presence of the System felt increasingly low; it was actually because she learned more and more, and her skills beca more diverse.
Anyway, since his parents had the ability to support him, he just needed to study well. In this era, various tutoring classes were not as popular as they would be in the future. There was no English in elentary school, and only in middle school would there be English. Normally it was just Chinese and math. He didn’t show that much talent; he just listened well in school, finished his howork early, attended interest classes after school, and took a walk in the park with Mom after dinner. The scenario of chaos over howork help at ho never occurred.
On weekends, Song Ge would take her for trips around the city. If not hiking, then just wandering around, either way, they wouldn’t stay ho.
His tutoring classes had no sessions on weekends; they were all scheduled during the weekdays, just so he could enjoy weekends. Because he was so self-disciplined, he would finish his howork as soon as school was over on Friday, saving Song Ge a lot of trouble. Song Ge firmly believed that traveling ten thousand miles is better than reading ten thousand books. She hoped to cover the whole province during his elentary school years, and hopefully visit neighboring provinces in the future.
Originally, the money they saved was ant for Liang Xin’s dical treatnt. Now that the sick child was gone, and a healthy son returned, spending this saved money on his travel and study was sothing both parents felt was absolutely worthwhile.
"I want to go to graduate school, do you think it’s doable?"
Song Ge graduated from the Chinese Departnt of a university. Later, through her own efforts, she passed the civil service exam. Now, during her son’s sumr vacation, no one could take care of him, which she felt very regretful about. If she went to graduate school and beca a university teacher, wouldn’t she then have sumr and winter vacations?
So, when she suddenly posed this question to Liang Junjie, the latter was quite surprised. After all, Song Ge was already twenty-eight years old this year, and they had married relatively early. She had graduated from university and worked for just one year before eting him, and he was five years older than she was.
As far as he knew, going to graduate school wasn’t easy—not only was it difficult, but the competition was fierce. She had given birth and worked for so many years since then, and going back to graduate school would an losing many advantages. Liang Junjie, worried about his wife facing hardship, didn’t quite know how to respond.
"Have you decided?"
Song Ge nodded slightly, "In the five years when my child needed the most, I wasn’t there. I really want to make up for this regret. If I succeed in getting into graduate school, and have the good fortune to work in a university in the future, wouldn’t I then have sumr and winter vacations to spend with him? Even if I go to your place, it wouldn’t be a problem. Although my character isn’t naturally suited to be a teacher, I can try hard. Since my son started learning many things here as soon as he arrived, and he works so hard, why shouldn’t I also strive?"
Liang Quan didn’t expect Song Ge to be so great; her current job was already very good. Yet for his sake, she was willing to endure the hardship of learning for a few more years, sothing not everyone could bear!
He was filled with admiration, yet also a bit heartbroken: "Mom, it’s okay, I can stay at ho by myself during sumr and winter vacations, I know how to cook and do laundry, you really don’t need to—"
Song Ge didn’t expect her son to understand, not only understand, but also feel sorry for her. She beca even more determined about her decision to go to graduate school.
"It’s okay, Mom will give it a try. I might not succeed, but I have to at least try—what if I succeed? I want to give you a childhood full of mories, so that when you grow up and look back at these photos from your childhood, it’ll be a precious nto, right?"
