Reborn in the 60s and adopted

Chapter 100: More men than women?

Today is September 15th, the sun is shining, the weather is fine, and it is also the day for school registration. Because it is a newly established school, the school started more than half a month later than other schools. Originally, it was thought that there would not be too many people registering this time, but the fact was beyond everyone's expectations - before the school gate opened, a large group of people had gathered in front of them! These people were all from the nearby villages, and each of them brought their own children with them.

After Principal Yin opened the door, he looked at the crowd in front of him and couldn't help but frown. He cleared his throat and motioned for everyone to be quiet: "Ahem... Everyone, please be quiet! I guess everyone is here to register their children, right?

Please queue up in order to register. Children under the age of six cannot enroll yet and can be taken home first; children aged six and above who have not yet been to school should go to Teacher Lu to register; and students who have already been to school and need to be promoted to other grades should go to Teacher Pei to register.

As soon as Principal Yin finished speaking, teachers Lu Hua and Pei Yanyan stood up and waved to the crowd with a smile. At this time, Wang Ran on the side also said: "Dear parents and friends, please line up and go through the registration procedures in an orderly manner. This will not only improve efficiency, but also save everyone's precious time." Hearing this, a female parent in the crowd couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh, so this is the children's teacher, she is so beautiful!" Someone next to her immediately echoed: "That's right, look at this appearance, she doesn't look like a country girl at all!"

"Could it be that he is an educated youth from the city?" the female parent exclaimed.

The other people in the queue all turned their eyes to her. The female parent could not help but feel a little embarrassed, and she suddenly regretted her blunt words just now: "Why are you looking at me? Hurry up and line up!" If it were at home, she might have said something more aggressive, but now she was in the school where her child was studying, so she had to consider her face.

Fortunately, the others did not say much and quietly lined up again. Parents completed the registration procedures one by one. The reason why people here are so obedient and cooperative is not difficult to understand - in the eyes of country people, the words of intellectuals are often very important. After all, there are still many people who have not even received literacy education, so they naturally hope that their children can study hard and have the opportunity to work in factories in towns or counties in the future and truly become city dwellers.

At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the registration work finally came to a successful conclusion. Pei Yanyan and other personnel in charge of registration carefully checked the list and found that there were 58 first-grade students who had registered for admission, while there were 19 students who were slightly older and should have been promoted to the second grade. Unfortunately, these children had not passed the academic assessment before, so they had no choice but to start from the first grade for the time being.

"Ranran, come and look at the gender of the students written in this notebook." Pei Yanyan reached out and grabbed Wang Ran, her tone full of surprise.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ran came forward curiously, took a closer look, and his eyes suddenly widened - my goodness, all the people registered in this book are boys!

"This... this is too exaggerated. There is not even a girl?" She couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Who said it wasn't true? What's going on? Why is everyone unwilling to send girls here to study?" Pei Yanyan frowned, her face full of worry.

At this time, Principal Yin happened to be in their office. Hearing the conversation between the two, he walked forward, picked up the notebook in Pei Yanyan's hand and looked at it, frowning as well.

"We can't go on like this. Without any girls, it won't be good for the development of the school. How about this, don't you two live in this village? And I heard that you have a good relationship with the villagers. Why don't you try to recruit a few girls to study here?" Principal Yin suggested.

Pei Yanyan and Wang Ran looked at each other, secretly thanking themselves for being able to cooperate with each other. After all, it was not easy to complete this task, but if the two worked together, it might be relatively easier.

It was noon in a blink of an eye, and Pei Yanyan and Wang Ran returned to the Tang family together. The family was sitting around the dining table eating lunch, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

"Comrade Tang, Meimei can go to primary school now, right?" Pei Yanyan went straight to the point.

Uncle Tang and Tang Mei were both stunned for a moment.

"My plan is to let her go when she is 6 years old, so that she won't be bullied when she is older," said Uncle Tang.

"You won't be bullied because we are here," said Wang Ran.

"That's right, that's right. My little apprentice's military boxing is not practiced in vain. It's a good opportunity to practice when being bullied." Pei Yanyan gestured with her hands.

"Puchi~ My dear sister, how can there be so many people bullying others?" Even if she was bullied, Tang Mei was not afraid.

"But Meimei is indeed a little young. Can she keep up with the studies?" Aunt Tang's family was relatively well-off when she was a child, and she also attended a private school for a few days.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Meimei is so smart, there will be no problem with her studies." Wang Ran was very confident in her little apprentice. When she was 5 years old, her drawing skills were not as good as Meimei's.

"Girl, do you want to go?" Uncle Tang asked Tang Mei seriously.

"I~" Tang Mei also thought about it seriously. She was not interested in studying in her previous life, and it was not good to go to school too early. But looking at the persuasion of her two sisters, she knew that they came with a mission, and it would be boring to play alone if they both went to school.

"I want to go, Dad, can you ask my sister Li, I want her to study with me." Tang Mei thought that if her cousin also went to school, at least she would have a companion in the future.

"Okay, I'll go ask your aunt after dinner." Uncle Tang also hoped that his nieces and daughters would be educated people.

Pei Yanyan and Wang Ran felt relieved after hearing this.

After dinner, Tang Mei and Uncle Tang strolled to the Tang family's main house.

When we arrived, the mother and her two children were having dinner.

"Hey, third brother, why are you and your father here? Come and sit here." The aunt put down the chopsticks in her hand.

Uncle Tang San and Tang Mei remained seated.

"Sister-in-law, Lili, what are your plans?" Tang Laosan felt a little embarrassed. She has a mother, and it was a bit unkind of me, an uncle from the next room, to ask about her.

"What's the plan?" The aunt was a little confused. Her daughter was still so young, she wouldn't be planning to get married.

"Well, sister-in-law, don't get me wrong. I'm talking about studying." Uncle Tang also knew that child marriages were a lot in this era, so if he didn't make it clear, sister-in-law would not get me wrong.

"Oh, so that's it." The aunt heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. Fortunately, it was not a child marriage. If her brother-in-law really came to propose marriage, she would not be able to refuse.

"Yes, my daughter Meimei will go to the village primary school tomorrow. She wants to find Lili to go to school with her so that she can have a companion," said Uncle Tang.

"Our Lili and Meimei are only five years old. Aren't they too young?" The aunt was also a little hesitant.

"Mom, Meimei has gone, I want to go too," Tang Li interrupted her mother.

"Are you serious? This is no joke. You've seen your brother, he studies hard from morning till night, rain or shine. I thought you were still young and could play for one more year," the aunt asked Tang Li seriously.

"I want to go. I'm not a child anymore and I also want to learn knowledge. My brother knows a lot of words and he usually teaches me, but he has a lot of homework and he can only teach me limited things. I want to learn more," Tang Li said very seriously. It has to be said that children of this era are really precocious. It is said that children from poor families grow up early. Otherwise, in modern times, someone as precocious as Tang Mei who doesn't disguise herself would have been suspected long ago.

"Okay, go ahead if you can endure the hardship. It's just a few dollars anyway," said the aunt with a smile. If the child wanted to learn, she would not stop him.

"Wow, that's great, sister. We can go to school together!" Tang Mei excitedly threw herself on Tang Li, very happy.

Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang in the room were watching the two sisters' fights with a smile on their faces.
