Chapter 421: Chapter 421: Assessment

“What about Zhang Yun? Haha…”

Zhang Peng laughed as he lifted the curtain and came in from outside, looking amusedly at everyone.

“Uncle Zhang!”

Di Xuan and Di Ying hurriedly paid their respects.

“Good, good, get up quickly, don’t bow anymore. Come, let’s sit down and talk.” After saying this, Zhang Peng casually found a stool to sit on.

Di Yelei was actually delighted: “Zhang Peng, your arrival is just in time! We were just talking about your son Zhang Yun, and then you came.”

Zhang Peng’s gaze swept around with a slightly stunned look, wasn’t he asked to come and help check on the injuries?

“What’s wrong with my Yun’er? Is it that he got into trouble and didn’t dare to come back and tell me?”

His words immediately amused Liu Sisi standing beside him: “Brother Zhang, Yun’er is very sensible, not like what you described. What we’re discussing now is about the enrolment for the village school.”

“Oh! Look at my muddled mind! Yes, it’s time for the village school enrolment, right?”

Zhang Peng slapped his forehead, obviously annoyed by his own memory: “Yes, Yun’er did tell me a few days ago that he wanted to go to school with Xuan’er. Guihua also said that it’s good for the children to learn a few more characters. In that case, let Zhang Yun and Xuan’er go to school together, so they can help each other and not be bullied.”

In fact, according to Zhang Peng’s own inclination, he did not approve of Zhang Yun going to any school, thinking it was a waste of time. It would be better to go up to the mountain more often and hunt more game!

However, being helpless that his arms couldn’t twist his thighs, Zhang Yun and Guihua had both made up their minds, and in the end, he had to go along with their wishes.

“Yes, we plan to have Xuan’er sign up for the assessment tomorrow, what about your Yun’er? Will he go together?” Liu Sisi said.

Zhang Peng thought for a moment and scratched the back of his head: “How about this! Tomorrow, I’ll also go and have a look at what this school is like!”

The next day, early in the morning, they all went to the village school.

Originally, Liu Sisi wanted to go directly to the county, but on second thought, she let Old Cheng turn his carriage and stop at the village school.

Last night, Zhang Peng had examined Di Yelei’s chest, and although there was some damage, fortunately, no bones were broken. How lucky!

At the moment, they were in front of the village school, and Liu Sisi lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, looking up to examine the surroundings carefully.

As for the village school, it seemed to be a spacious courtyard, quiet inside, with no signs of people. Outside, there was a wide dam, surrounded by green trees, and behind the courtyard was a small grove. To the left was a small stream with clear water. On the plaque above the main entrance of the courtyard, the four big characters “Xiyi Academy” were written!

Liu Sisi turned around, got YingEr and Da Mao out of the carriage, and since only the father-in-law was at home today, bringing the two children was a helpless move.

Zhang Peng and Di Yelei also dismounted, standing beside Zhang Yun and Di Xuan.

“It’s so quiet inside, could it be that there’s no one?” Liu Sisi asked softly.

“Perhaps we came too early, so we can’t see anyone. However, every year, the enrollment starts from the 12th day of the Lunar New Year, so there should be no mistake. Furthermore, several teachers live in this academy, so there must be people. Let’s go in and have a look.”

After saying this, Di Yelei casually threw the reins to Old Cheng, leading everyone inside.
