Chapter 599

At this very moment, both the old principal and Zhaodi were looking at Lu Qiaoge with eager eyes.

And at this time, Zhaodi had already tested addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

The old principal didn't know that Lu Qiaoge was thinking about the mental calculation unit.

He just wanted to see if Lu Qiaoge could help plead with President Yu to let this child go to the commune primary school.

Qinggang Village wasn't very far from Weixing Commune; walking would take about two hours.

This era was just like this.

Even though Jiangcheng was located in the plains.

Because of various reasons, not every village could have primary and middle schools; in fact, even now, it couldn't be done.

So many children had to walk for several hours to go to school.

Middle school students who set off before dawn to go to school in Manshan Commune, or even Weixing Commune, were everywhere.

So the old principal hadn't considered the distance problem at all; he hoped the leaders could see that the child was so excellent and let Zhaodi study for free.

Not only could it reduce the burden on the family, but it could also increase the opportunity for continuous study.

Otherwise, in a few years, if no one managed this matter, this child would really be completely trapped at home.

That would really be delaying her for a lifetime, and the country would also lose a talent.

These were all the old principal could think of.

He never thought that Lu Qiaoge was thinking about whether to contact Qin Hengzhi to send this child to the mental calculation unit.

This child had to be handed over to the country.

But she had to make a phone call first.

However, before there was definite news, it was impossible to tell the old principal and Zhaodi, so as not to let them have a joy in vain.

After all, she didn't know what the standard for the mental calculation unit to recruit students was now.

So Lu Qiaoge looked into the courtyard.

Just now, everyone was pulling and blocking those few people, fighting so lively, but now everyone had retreated several steps.

Giving the people of the old Cao family a space to fight.

Even though President Yu was angry in his heart, he looked calm on the surface, as if watching the fun.

Anyway, it was already like this, and he wasn't afraid of losing face.

If they liked to fight, let them fight; after they had fought enough, see what they would do?

If they fought seriously, it would be just right for them all to go to the police station.

Others were even more so.

But precisely because of this, old man Cao and the others felt they couldn't argue anymore.

Seeing the arrogant behavior of the eldest daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law, old man Cao said a few words to old Mrs. Cao in a low voice.

Old Mrs. Cao also couldn't care about resentment and sadness.

With trembling fingers, she pointed at the eldest daughter-in-law and third daughter-in-law who were still making a scene: "Stop it for me; if you dare to show off again, you will all divorce and roll back to your maiden homes. Our old Cao family can't accommodate you two fools!"

Subsequently, she went to beat the eldest Cao and the third Cao, cursing: "If you two still want to recognize me as your mother, manage those two fools for me, otherwise divorce; if you can't bear to divorce, then all roll out for me."

Subsequently, she added a sentence: "Take all those wolf cubs away for me; I don't want to see any of them!"

Lu Qiaoge's gaze turned around the courtyard.

Situations like the old Cao family were generally not easy to handle.

Mainly because old man Cao and old Mrs. Cao were not reasonable.

And now the second Cao and Wu Dani had no sons, only three daughters, so they felt inferior.

Enduring the unfair distribution was just because they had no sons.

The victims of this endurance were only Wu Dani's three daughters.

This unfair distribution in the family was a hidden danger.

If one wanted this family to be normal, either the old man and old lady had to handle housework fairly and justly. Or the second Cao and Wu Dani had to strive to divide the household, and their opinions had to be unified.

But now the second Cao didn't want to divide the household because he felt he had no son, so he said he might have to rely on his nephew to support him in his old age.

Now people with similar situations would have this idea: if I'm not good to my nephew now, can he manage me in the future?

So his own sacrifice and the sacrifice of his wife and daughter all became taken for granted; to be cruel, just to support him in his old age, he sacrificed his wife and daughter as slaves.

This situation was not uncommon in this era.

Lu Qiaoge said to the old principal: "Zhaodi is really very smart, especially having too much talent in numbers. How about this, old principal, you and Zhaodi wait for me in the village; I need to go back to my unit to make a phone call."

The old principal asked with some hesitation: "Why go back to the unit to make a phone call? I want... I want you to talk to President Yu to see if Zhaodi can study at the commune primary school for free?"

Studying at the commune primary school, could she just say it to President Yu in this courtyard?

Did she still need to go back to the military factory to make a phone call?

The old principal was a bit confused.

Lu Qiaoge only then knew that the old principal was holding this thought.

Lu Qiaoge shook her head: "This child has rare talent; if cultivated well, she will be a pillar of talent. She should have a better place to go, but as for where, after this matter is handled, I will tell you, okay?"

The old principal was suddenly excited.

The Factory Director Lu in front of him wasn't an ordinary person.

Since she said so, could little Zhaodi go to a better place?

A flash of inspiration crossed the old principal's mind; could it be a gifted class?

He had heard about the gifted class a few years ago.

But he almost hadn't heard of it in recent years.

Was she going to send Zhaodi there?

If that were really the case, that would be too good.

The old principal nodded incessantly: "That's good, that's good, thank you, Factory Director Lu."

Although little Zhaodi didn't understand where she was being sent, she also whispered on the side: "Thank you, Factory Director Lu."

And at this time, the second Cao and Wu Dani had no time to look at the chaotic scene in the courtyard, and their attention was on these three people.

Both of them looked at their daughter in shock.

They knew the child studied well, and her exams were always double hundreds.

Every time she was first.

But there were only a few students, so if she wasn't first, who would send her to school? It would be better to stay at home and work.

But just now the old principal said such long numbers, and then addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, which made their heads dizzy.

Factory Director Lu had a calculator in her bag.

That thing was also very powerful.

The couple never thought that their eldest daughter actually calculated the same result as the calculator.

Subsequently, they heard the conversation between the old principal and Lu Qiaoge.

Wanting to ask but not daring to, looking at each other, the look in their eyes when they looked at Zhaodi changed.

Lu Qiaoge walked to President Yu's side, and President Yu, seeing Lu Qiaoge walk over, hurriedly said: "Factory Director Lu, rest assured, this matter will definitely be handled well."

Subsequently, he added helplessly: "Little Factory Director Lu, you have also done grassroots work, especially rural work; it's really not easy to do."

Lu Qiaoge nodded: "Understand, understand, but President Yu, you handle it here first. You might not have seen it just now, but Cao Zhaodi has talent in mental calculation, so I'm going back to make a phone call..."

President Yu was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding...
