“Mother, shouldn’t you contact the school for Jiao? She has to go to school, right?” Meng Yao’s tone was filled with concern.

Ning Jia hurriedly said, “Oh my, thank goodness you reminded me. I almost forgot about such a big thing.”

Meng Tang said lightly, “Just let Jiao attend school at Ying Cai with Yao. They’re the same age and can be in the same class. They can also take care of each other.”

Meng Yao looked worried and said, “But Father, Jiao grew up in the countryside. I’m afraid she can’t keep up with Ying Cai School’s progress. When the results are not good and the students have opinions, I’m afraid the parents will say that you’re using your status as a board member to seek personal gain for your daughter.”

Before Meng Tang could say anything, Ning Jia hurriedly said, “Yes, going to school is not a big deal. It’s okay if she doesn’t attend school at Ying Cai. Honey, you’re under so much pressure now. You can’t be slandered by those villains over such a small matter.”

Meng Tang sneered, “It’s nothing. The other board members have also done many things to abuse their power for personal gain. I’m doing this for my own daughter. Why can’t I?”

Meng Yao quickly gave Meng Wei a look.

Meng Wei touched his nose and said, “Jiao’s results were… Why don’t we give her some time? If she’s really not doing well, I won’t suggest you let her stay, Father.”

Meng Yao looked at Meng Wei in agreement and hurriedly said, “In my opinion, why don’t we let Jiao start from the fifth grade and hire a tutor for her to study hard? That way, when she takes Ying Cai’s entrance examination next year, she shouldn’t be too far off. At that time, it won’t be too embarrassing with your words supporting her.”

Ning Jia nodded and agreed with Meng Yao. Ning Jia did not care much about Meng Jiao’s studies. After all, Meng Jiao had been in the countryside for so many years. Ning Jia knew without thinking that Meng Jiao’s foundation must be very poor. She might as well study at home and build a good foundation before going to school.

After all, if Meng Jiao’s results were not good, Ning Jia would also lose face. Girls were different from boys. Even if Meng Wei’s grades were not good, he was still the second young master of the Meng family’s eldest branch. He had a bright future, and no one would say anything. However, if a girl did not do well in her studies, she would be considered to have failed her job as a mother.

“What grade are you in, Yao?” Meng Jiao asked timidly.

“I’m already a 7th grader.”

“Yao skipped a grade and directly got into Ying Cai school from the fifth grade! She was amazing!” Meng Wei hurriedly said.

Meng Yao’s back straightened even more.

Meng Jiao sneered in her heart.

In Meng Jiao’s previous life, Meng Yao and Meng Wei had decided to let Meng Jiao start from the fifth grade with just a few words, making Meng Jiao the oldest child in the class.

Meng Yao also allowed the children in Meng Jiao’s class to bully her. The children in the class were either rich or noble. They formed small groups according to their family situation. Under Meng Yao’s deterrence, they bullied Meng Jiao, causing very serious psychological trauma to Meng Jiao.

This time, it was indeed the same.

Meng Jiao’s tone was still timid. She said, “At my old home, I had to do homework for my brother. He’s already an 8th grader. If I did the homework wrongly, he would hit me. So, I’ve already prepared myself with 9th graders’ homework. Fortunately, he hasn’t hit me because of homework for a long time this semester.”

What Meng Jiao meant was that she was more than capable of doing an 8th grader’s homework.

This shocked everyone in the Meng family.

“You can do the 8th grader’s homework?” asked Meng Wei. He was surprised.

Meng Tang said angrily, “That brat dares to bully you like that? Meng San, get the lawyer to keep an eye on him. I don’t want to see him come out of prison!”

Meng San responded and left.

Ning Jia asked, “Self-study? You can learn it by self-study?”

Meng Jiao nodded slightly and replied to Ning Jia, “It’s just that my English is not good enough. I can only secretly follow the tape and read it. I don’t know if it’s standard or not.”

Ning Jia was pleasantly surprised. She said, “It’s okay. I’ll find you the best teacher to tutor you in English. You’re so smart. You’ll definitely be fine!”

Meng Tang said, “Then you should study together with Yao in 7th grade. Arrange for the teachers of each subject to test Jiao’s proficiency and make up for the gaps. It’s better to go to school with people of the same age. Otherwise, it will affect your mental health.”

Meng Jiao saw Meng Yao bite down on a piece of beef and chew it hard. She could not help but laugh in her heart, ‘Did Meng Yao think that piece of meat was me? She couldn’t wait to bite me?’

Meng Wei’s impression of Jiao changed once again. He said sincerely, “Mother, do you think Jiao is like Lin? Could she be a genius in studies like him?”

Ning Jia glared at Meng Wei and said, “You’re the one to talk. You are also my son, yet why are you so bad in your studies?”

“Why don’t you check and see if I’ve also been switched?” Meng Wei grinned.

Ning Jia’s face turned cold. Meng Tang glared at Meng Wei. He shouted, “One more nonsense and you get out!”
