Era: Seven money-losing girls? They're trying to trick me into having a daughter again!

"You two are 10 and 8 years old, it's time for you to go to school."

Fang Wei patted Er Ya's head and said softly, "Before, Dad didn't have money to send you to school, but now Dad has money, so you can go to school too."

"So, Da Ya? Do you want to go to school?"

"I...I..."

Da Ya stammered for a moment, looking at Wu Shaoli with some confusion.

Of course she wants to go to school!

But does your family have that much money?!

In Laotang Village, not many families can afford to send their children to town to finish their schooling. Most of them stop sending their children to school after a while.

One reason is that the daily commute of almost 10 kilometers is simply too far for a child.

Secondly, by the time they reach the third or fourth grade, they are basically ten years old, which means they can be considered little adults and help with household chores, so there is no need to send them to school anymore.

Third, if children are allowed to live at school directly, the expenses for a semester can amount to more than 100 yuan, which many families cannot afford or are unwilling to pay.

Why are Ayaka and her brother able to attend school in town and come home every day?

Because their father was a very skilled carpenter!

The other party will not only work in the town, but also go to the county and even the city.

Because I felt sorry for my children having to walk so far to school every day, I specially bought a bicycle for them to use on their way to school!

Many children in Laotang Village envy Caihua and her brother.

Their father, though bald and fierce-looking, never hit them.

Although their mother looked the same size as other children's mothers, she was much gentler and would not pull their ears or scold them.

Daya and Erya were a little older and understood more things, and they envied Caihua and her brother even more.

"Don't worry about the money."

Fang Wei touched her little face and said in a deep voice, "You just need to tell Daddy whether you want to go to school or not."

"I……"

Da Ya stared blankly at him, her mouth opened and closed, then opened again, and finally she bit her lower lip hard, the words that came out were almost inaudible to Fang Wei.

"I think……"

Her mother also taught her to recognize some characters!

She can memorize those big characters after being taught just once, which is much better than the other children in the village!

When Er Ya and Cai Hua were playing together, she saw Cai Hua's textbook and really wanted a textbook of her own!

"……dad……"

Daya felt as if something was blocking her throat, making it almost impossible for her to speak: "I want... to go to school..."

By the end, her voice was trembling.

She really wants to go to school! She can learn so many interesting characters!

Sometimes, Daya really wanted to be like Erya and Sanya, pestering her mother to teach her to read.

But Mom looks so tired every day! She can only help Mom take care of her younger sisters so that Mom won't be so tired!

"Good boy/girl."

When Fang Wei suddenly heard Daya call him "Dad," his heart softened so much that he couldn't speak. He could only hug his two daughters and say in a muffled voice.

"Dad promises you, all seven of you sisters will be able to go to school from now on!"

Wu Shaoli's eyes stung as she watched this scene.

She has suffered for so many years, and finally this day has come!

"Thank you... Dad."

Da Ya looked a little embarrassed, but repeated softly, "Thank you."

"Mommy! Mommy!"

Er Ya was so happy that she jumped and danced. After crawling out of Fang Wei's arms, she rushed over and hugged Wu Shaoli's leg.

"Dad said he'll take me to school! I can go to school with Ayaka now!"

"Mom heard you. Congratulations to you and your sister!"

Wu Shaoli patted her head, her expression a mixture of happiness and worry.

"Fang Wei, going to school is a good thing... but the tuition..."

The family has less than 200 yuan left. There are nine people to feed and drink, and we also need to spend money to reclaim the more than 200 acres of wasteland. If you do the math, it's not enough at all.

"You don't need to worry about the tuition fees."

Fang Wei took Da Ya's hand and sat down next to his wife, saying, "I'll find another way to earn it, don't worry."

Wu Shaoli looked into his eyes and then lowered her head to say "Mmm".

"I'm going to school now~ I'm going to school now~"

Er Ya was so excited, she kept jumping around the room holding Da Ya's hand, shouting, "We're going to school together! We're going to school together!"

Normally, Daya would have already shaken her hand off and given her sister a good scolding.

But now she was also very excited and couldn't help but sing along.

Seeing their two older sisters so happy, the remaining little girls also inexplicably became happy as well.

"Daddy, hug me!"

Sanya, like a little monkey, climbed directly onto Fang Wei's body, straddled his neck, and pulled his hair hard with both hands, giggling non-stop.

"Daddy, stand up! Giddy up! Daddy, stand up now!"

Fang Wei's hair was pulled painfully, but he felt sweeter than honey and obediently stood up as instructed.

"Giddy up! Giddy up! Daddy, run!"

Sanya slapped his head hard, each slap louder than the last.

She had seen other children in the village ride on their fathers' backs like this, and she had wanted to try it for a long time!

"Sanya, be gentle."

Hearing the slapping sounds, Wu Shaoli was afraid her daughter had hurt Fang Wei so badly she'd made him stupid. "Just a couple of hops! Get off!"

"It's okay! Dad's head won't break!"

Fang Wei laughed heartily. He rarely experienced the happiness of being surrounded and played with by his daughters, and he couldn't wait for them to take more pictures.

"I want to ride too! Daddy! I want to ride too!"

"ride!"

Seeing that Sanya was having fun, Er Ya and Si Ya both gathered around Fang Wei, looking at him expectantly.

"Alright, alright! One at a time! Everyone can play!"

After Fang Wei finished speaking, he deliberately shook his body to scare his daughter on his neck, "Ouch! I'm going to fall! Daddy's going to fall!"

"what!"

Sanya screamed in fright, and gripped her hair even tighter, causing Fang Wei to wince in pain.

This girl looks so thin and small, how come she has such a strong grip?!

Daya walked to her mother's side and started to play with her sixth sister in a very sensible way.

"Why don't you go play with Daddy?"

Wu Shaoli patted her head and asked with a smile.

"..."

Daya watched Fang Wei and Er Ya and San Ya having fun, a hint of envy flashing across her face, but she still stubbornly said, "I'm an adult now, I don't want to play this kind of game at all, it's different from Er Ya and the others!"
