Shi Mo is confident that with his talent for rebirth, he can completely help his aunt and get out of the predicament of his previous life.

Without Shi Mo's interference, Shi Rong's marriage was confirmed at the end of 86, and he planned to get married in May 87.

Shi Mo's family through these two years of fish farming, the family environment is much better than the average person, when the aunt got married, the grandfather helped the aunt buy a lot of dowry, including a more expensive black and white TV set at that time, so that others can't help but be a little jealous.

In later generations, such a wedding is basically simple and can no longer be simpler, but in the current Yangmutan Village, it can be regarded as very grand.

When my aunt got married, she used a sedan chair, which was carried by four people, which was similar to that of TV in ancient times, and the back was carried by three boxes, and some quilts and clothes, of course, basins, buckets, tents, etc.

Although the family is better than before, but after all, the foundation is still relatively thin, coupled with the stingy personalities of grandfather and father, the possibility of giving money to the box, Shi Mo knows that it is basically zero without thinking about it.

My aunt got married, and Shi Mo was facing the time to go to elementary school, not that the five-year-old Shi Mo had reached the age of going to school, but Shi Mo's brother was seven years old this year and was just about to go to school, and the family wanted them to go to school together for the sake of the two brothers.

It's the same in the previous life, five-year-old Shi Mo and his brother went to school together, after all, they were still too young, and Shi Mo was three first-grade students in his previous life, and he didn't read the book, he picked up bird eggs on the tree, and played glass beads under the tree, so he learned everything perfectly.

Unlike later, there are regulations for reading, children can only go to school at the age of seven, and there is no repetition of grades, no matter whether the grades are good or not, they can only go up, at that time, Shi Mo was afraid of repeating grades, and took the transcript after the final exam every year, and the most afraid thing is to write a "stay" word on the transcript, but every year the teacher is reluctant to him.

Shi Mo really doesn't want to go to school now, with his current knowledge accumulation, his cultural level may be higher than the teacher who taught him, and he will definitely not be able to repeat the grade, if he doesn't repeat the grade, those friends and classmates in his previous life, even his wife, may not have any more intersections.

This is something that Shi Mo does not want to happen, Shi Mo and his wife were high school classmates in his previous life, his wife's grades have always been very good, and she entered the science fast class in high school, Shi Mo has worked hard for a long time, and only entered the science fast class in the second year of high school, and became classmates with his wife.

If I have advanced two terms, I am afraid that I and my wife will pass by in the future, no matter what, I can't let such a thing happen, I still have to be classmates with my wife in this life.

Shi Mo felt that he still had to talk to his parents about studying, although he knew that the effect might not be great, so he could only try, in case it didn't work, he could only pretend to be stupid when he went to school.

In the evening, after dinner, the night in June was still relatively hot, the family sat on the bamboo bed outside the house to enjoy the cool, talking about all kinds of interesting things, grandpa gently shook the fan, patted the mosquitoes, and told his miserable life experience, such as how he embarked on the road of a shaver, once he was alone with a pair of chopsticks, and came directly to Yangmutan Village to settle down.

When the RB devils attacked China, he saw the RB devils kill people with his own eyes, at that time, the country was fighting in the dark, and my grandfather had a cousin, when he was young, he was a single, and he resolutely participated in the anti-Japanese resistance, and I heard that it seemed that he died in Woniu Mountain, anyway, he didn't see anyone, he couldn't see the corpse when he died, and so on......

Shi Mo's brother listened very attentively, Shi Mo yawned next to him, he hadn't heard these things a thousand times in his grandfather's mouth before, but eight hundred times, for him, this was all a cliché.

"Grandpa, why did you only study for three years when you went to private school!" Shi Mo asked pretending to be curious.

"Grandpa at that time, it was great to be able to study in a private school for three years, many people have never read a book in their lives, if it weren't for your grandfather, who likes to bet too much and ruined his family, your grandfather I may be able to study for a few more years." Shi Zhangming said with some regret.

"I see! Grandpa, how old are you in private school? Shi Mo asked curiously.

"I went to a private school when I was twelve years old, and I had been helping people herd cattle in the landlord's house until I was twelve years old, if it wasn't for your mother-in-law, my grandfather wouldn't be able to read!" Shi Zhangming took a puff of the dry cigarette in his hand and said remembrance.

"And my father, how old was he in school?" Shi Mo looked at Shi Youfu next to him and asked curiously.

"I remember, it looks like seven or eight years old!" Shi Zhangming said with some uncertainty.

"I went to school when I was eight years old, and at that time, I got up every morning before dawn, took a basket, gathered cow dung around the village, collected the cow dung, and then cooked the family's meal, and then went to school, which is as comfortable as you are now." Shi Youfu followed and said.

"My grandfather went to private school at the age of twelve, my father went to elementary school at the age of eight, and my brother went to elementary school at the age of seven, so why should I go to elementary school at the age of five?" Shi Mo finally showed his fox tail and asked aggrievedly.

“……”

Shi Mo's grandfather and father glanced at each other, there was a smile in their eyes that couldn't be hidden, and then burst out laughing.

"It turns out that my little grandson doesn't want to go to school so early." Shi Zhangminglang said with a smile.

"This kid is weird, he really doesn't know how to be blessed." Shi Youfu also said.

"Do you know that in our era, many poor people wanted to study, but they didn't have the opportunity, your mother is a good example, your mother has seven brothers and sisters, and the family is poor, except for your uncle, your mother is the oldest, she has helped the family since she was a child, doing projects, and getting centimeters, but there is no opportunity to study, so now Niu Da doesn't know the words." Shi Youfu glanced at his wife sitting next to him and educated Shi Modao.

"Xiaomo, your father is right, now that there is this condition, you and your brother go to school together to take care of it, the brothers are together, others don't dare to bully you, we can rest assured, reading can tell the truth from the truth, you are not young, it is not a matter to play at home every day." Wu Fen glanced at Shi Youfu, stopped the fan in his hand that was slapping mosquitoes, and said with some seriousness.

"I'm seven years old, can't I go to school?" Shi Mo said unwillingly.

"The brothers go to school together, and take care of each other, and this matter is settled, and I will go buy a few feet of cloth in the next two days, and let the tailor make a new set of clothes for each of you, and the rest of the fabric, make a schoolbag for each of you, but you must study hard." Wu Fenhua did not allow Shi Mo to defend herself, and said directly.

Shi Mo's grandfather and father nodded slightly, seemingly agreeing with his mother's point of view.

Shi Qian was very excited when he heard his mother say that he would buy cloth to make new clothes and school bags, and he had a strong smirk on his face, as if he had imagined what the new clothes would look like on his body.

Only Shi Mo's depressed face, and his family's emphasis on reading, made his inner thoughts come to naught, so he had no choice but to accept the family's arrangement and prepare for school.
