Chapter 1090: Starting High School (4)
The couple signed an IOU, but they didn’t specify a repayment period, so they could pay it off slowly over time.
Later, Ruan Bo also got into one of the nation’s top art academies, which cost even more money, so the couple worked harder than before, getting up early and burning the midnight oil, full of enthusiasm.
Plus, since Ruan Lei is doing well in school now, he’s definitely going to college in the future, supporting two college students is not easy, the couple is so busy they hardly come home.
The Ruanlin Family is happy about this; poverty isn’t scary, what’s scary is being poor and not working hard.
The money Shu Jiao lent them, she gave secretly, she didn’t plan for the couple to know because she feared it’d give them a sense of entitlement, especially since the main family’s business was getting better and better, and Ruan Jianguo had a nature of taking charge. She worried he’d foster laziness in his three brothers, which could lead to trouble in the future.
Fortunately, the couple are sensible and don’t take things for granted. With the debt, they’re working hard every day, and many times, Ruan Lei has his three meals at the main Ruan Family house, which she’s willing to support with.
Ruan Lei is also understanding, naturally aware of their current situation, he smiled at the Ruanlin Family, then bowed his head and talked to Ruan Jiaojiao, peeling an egg for her.
"Jiaojiao and Xiaoxi are in the same class, I wonder if we’ll be in the same class." Ruan Lei said this with mixed feelings.
He has been the perennial "third oldest" for six years now, truly fearing this "third oldest" label would follow him forever, yet hoping to be in the same class with Ruan Jiaojiao to look after his sister.
"We’ll find out later." Lu Zishu said, biting into a deep-fried dough stick dipped in porridge, turning to ask Ruan Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, are you a day student again?"
"Mom has a house allocated at school, we live there." Ruan Jiaojiao replied.
