Chapter 136: Chapter 131 Not Wronged

"Mom, I’m back,"

After school in the afternoon, Lu Yun took out the key to open the small single door on the main gate and shouted as soon as she entered the house.

The house was separated by a courtyard, and yelling at the entrance often went unheard. There was a doorbell on the small door, but it was still inconvenient. Eventually, her parents just gave her a key so she could open the door and let herself in after school, to avoid yelling at the door every day.

Yet, upon returning, she still made a habit of calling out for her mom first.

"You’re back, hurry in and wash your hands to eat the meat sandwiches," Xia Yuan poked her head out from the kitchen door, smiling and urging her.

"You made meat sandwiches today?" Lu Yun cheered and bolted directly toward the kitchen door. Her mother’s meat sandwiches were one of her favorite foods, though she actually couldn’t eat much at a time—two were her limit.

"Mmm, so delicious." Biting a quarter of a meat sandwich in one go, Lu Yun’s face was a picture of bliss.

"The last batch was finished, and today your dad remembered, so he specially went out and bought a lot of flatbreads. I’ve prepared them all already; you better pack them up while they’re still hot." Seeing Lu Yun enjoy her meal brought a sense of satisfaction to Xia Yuan.

"But don’t eat too much, we still have dinner later. After you’re done eating, go do your homework right away."

"Okay," Lu Yun nodded while she saw that her mom had already stir-fried all the dishes and placed them on the stove. She packed everything up all at once. Every day at this time, her mom would have the meals cooked, ready for her to pack up so that when dinner time came, everything would still be steaming hot.

They had only lived in their new home for a few days, but the family had already genuinely felt the benefits of buying this house. Everyone felt even more convinced that the extra ten thousand or so they had spent was well worth it.

Of course, the reason they felt this way was highly related to the increased earnings from selling chips, making them quite confident. In the past, making more than ten thousand yuan wasn’t so easy, but now, it was reached within a month or two.

With more money, naturally, they became more indifferent to its value.

Moreover, in a certain sense, the benefits and conveniences they gained from moving had also accelerated the flow of money into their home.

Now, Lu Yun’s school was only a five or six-minute walk from home.

Of course, if Lu Yun was willing to transfer to Wuxiang Primary School, the distance would be halved. Their new home was actually on the same alley as Wuxiang Primary School, just at the opposite end. At home, Xia Yuan could hear the school’s broadcast every day.

However, when it came to transferring schools, Lu Yun was adamantly against it. At her wits’ end, Xia Yuan angrily asked her, "What exactly are you being so stubborn about?"

Lu Aiguo also persuaded, "It’s a very good school, hard to get into; others beg to get in, and you don’t want to go?"

"I don’t want to change places, or have to get to know new classmates and teachers. Over there, I won’t have my two cousins to protect me. What if someone bullies me? Isn’t going to school just going to school? I can still be first in my class at Number Six Primary School in Haicheng."

No matter what, Lu Yun just wouldn’t budge.

In the end, Xia Yuan, pointing irritably at her forehead, said, "You yourself said you could still be first at Number Six Primary School in Haicheng. If you fall behind in the next exam, you’re transferring, understand?"

"Okay." Lu Yun agreed confidently and without a second thought.

Her prompt agreement left Xia Yuan at a loss for words. She had no choice but to reluctantly accept reality and grumbled about it privately with Lu Aiguo, thinking they could only wait until Lu Yun made a mistake on an exam before bringing up the subject again.

In fact, the main reason for not transferring schools was that in her previous life, Lu Yun had attended Haicheng No. 6 Primary School. She felt a natural affinity for the school, as if she were on her own turf, which gave her a comfortable and relaxed feeling, so she didn’t want to switch schools in this life either.

Moreover, there were some advantages to attending an ordinary school, at least there wasn’t a slew of troublesome requirements.

She did not want to change to a different school only to be subjected to all kinds of strict demands by the teachers.

You should know that up until about the third grade, there were quite a few students who could consistently score double hundreds on exams. The real divide came in the fourth grade. So, her "genius" couldn’t stand out in such an environment, at least not immediately.

On the other hand, her habitual inattentiveness in class might actually get her in trouble by drawing the teachers’ attention. What if, as a transfer student, the teachers paid special attention to her, feeling it a shame that someone so gifted didn’t apply herself, and then they decided to impose strict requirements on her?

Additionally, with the school being so close to home, if a teacher passed by her house now and then and mentioned her daydreaming in class to her mother, she’d be in for it. So no matter what anyone said, Lu Yun was determined not to transfer schools, preferring to walk a little further to Haicheng No. 6 Primary School every day.

Of course, she wasn’t saying the teachers at Haicheng No. 6 Primary School were irresponsible. It was because, starting from her enrollment, she deliberately showed a demeanor that was always casual, yet she could always score full marks on major and minor tests. The teachers got used to her behavior from the beginning and, over time, all of them came to accept it as just part of who she was. Seeing her good performance, they didn’t consider it a defect anymore.

So the prestigious Wuxiang Primary School could wait until they had a younger brother, and then he could attend it.

Now that they no longer had to take the long trip to escort Lu Yun, Lu Aiguo’s and Shitou’s schedules became much freer. With each of them having their own tricycle, it felt like they had entered a state where the sky was the limit and the seas were theirs to explore...

Lu Aiguo and Shitou were both busy expanding their business outside.

At home, Xia Yuan oversaw four vacuum fryers, which barely stopped running during the day.

With the new house, there was no need to worry about not having enough space for the high-power solar panels, and the place where the solar panels were stored was secured with doors and locks. There was no concern that someone might inadvertently enter and, out of curiosity, cause problems after seeing the solar panels...

And now that they lived closer to Xia Na’s family, it was much more convenient for the two families to visit each other. It was better for relatives to live near one another, making it easier to lend a hand in times of need.

Moreover, with their sufficiently high walls and a large yard, there was no more concern about being spied upon while talking or doing things at home.

Of course, with a larger house and more rooms, even if the unoccupied ones were kept closed, the daily cleaning required was quite extensive and tiresome.

Considering this, everyone, including Lu Yun, would willingly help with the chores after coming home each day. Although it was harder than before, no one complained, and instead, everyone felt that the extra effort brought happiness.

But in the end, Lu Yun ended up taking on the cleaning duties by herself.

Because she discovered that using spiritual power to clean was incredibly effective. In the blink of an eye, she could clump all the dust together and toss it directly into the trash can, leaving every surface sparkling.

It was even cleaner than if Xia Yuan wiped the same spot over and over five or six times with a cloth.
