Chapter 384: Chapter 385: Can’t Impoverish Education

Helian Qiao blinked her large eyes, her voice sweet and childish, "I know, we still have one more at home."

At this moment, even the wealthy members of the Gu family couldn’t help but gasp, there’s still another one!

It’s not that they can’t afford to buy ginseng, it’s just that the longer it has aged the harder it is to buy, after all, it’s a precious item that can be life-saving at critical moments.

"We can’t accept such a gift, we can’t take advantage of such kind gesture. Even if we accept, we must buy it with money!" Jiang Manyun insisted.

Helian Qiao pouted unhappily, "It’s not for you, it’s for Gu Tingyun."

Her plump rosy lips were still stained with a ring of malt extract, making her look more innocent and adorable.

Upon hearing her words, everyone’s gaze turned towards Gu Tingyun.

Young Master Gu calmly took a handkerchief and wiped her mouth clean, then whispered, "Is this a gift from Guibao?"

"Yes."

Helian Qiao nodded and tilted her little head to ask him, "Do you like it?"

Gu Tingyun’s face lit up with a brilliant and joyful smile, "Thank you, Guibao, I like it."

As long as it is a gift from the little hamster, he likes it.

Helian Qiao finally smiled satisfactorily, she knew that the big bad dragon would like it!

Gu Tingyun then told his mother and grandfather, "I want to keep this gift."

It was a birthday gift from Guibao, he would not refuse it.

Moreover, after his grandfather had a severe illness two years ago, he has been taking some ginseng every month to nourish his body, he wanted to give this ginseng to his grandfather.

Jiang Manyun, who always respected her son’s opinion, however, shook her head decisively this time, "No, this gift is too expensive, we can’t accept it."

But Gu Tingyun was even more stubborn, so mother and son ended up in a silent standoff.

At that moment, the elder Mr. Gu sitting on the sofa suddenly spoke, "If Tingyun wants to keep it, let him."

"Dad?!"

Jiang Manyun looked incredulously at her father-in-law, who never even accepts a needle and thread from the public!

Upon second thought, the elder must have another idea, so she nodded and said, "Well, we will keep it then."

Seeing that the matter was settled, Gu Siyu cheerfully said, "Brother, I still want to eat raspberries."

In the whole room, only this little girl was oblivious to the value of ginseng, her mind filled with the sour and sweet taste of raspberries she had yesterday.

Helian Qiao also wanted to eat, so she raised her chubby little hand and shouted, "Let’s go, let’s go picking raspberries!"

After the children had left, Jiang Manyun said, "Dad, you estimate the price, I’ll send the money to Mrs. Chen."

Even if it was a gift from Guibao to Tingyun, it was too expensive, she felt uneasy about it, she would rather buy it.

However, Elder Gu said, "Don’t give any money, don’t mix children’s pure friendship with money concerns, just take care of the Chen family more in the future. If you still feel uneasy, you can use the money to build a school that doesn’t charge any tuition."

He found out yesterday that the commune only has literacy classes and each child can only attend for a year or two at the most.

To study further, they have to go to the faraway town. The tuition is not cheap there, not every family can afford it.

We can’t let poverty affect education!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Manyun’s eyes lit up, the elder had a far-sighted plan indeed!

She had seen with her own eyes how many children who are eight or nine years old can’t even write their own names.

The boys play outside every day, and the girls work in the fields.

Conveniently, there are educated youths who have attended high school in the village, they can be invited to serve as teachers, and they can provide three meals a day.
