Chapter 1447: School Entrance Examination

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

This also indirectly proved that Xiao Bao resembled Tian Dong more. He was unlike his mother, who was very sloppy in other matters besides the affairs of the army.

Holding hands with his auntie, Xiao Bao very patiently toured the entire school. After returning to the starting point, Xiao Bao then lifted his head and looked at Qiao Nan. “Auntie, when will cousins finish their exams?” How long more did we have to wait?

“See, I already told you. Xiao Bao, this little brat, will definitely feel anxious. I really didn’t guess it wrong.” Er Bao’s tone of ‘watching a good show’ could be heard. That ruffian-like look of his carried a wicked tinge of liking to make fun of others.

San Bao rolled her eyes. “Do you need to say that? We knew even if you didn’t say it, okay? Furthermore, we had been in the examination hall for a long time.” If her mother had not reminded them many times not to be anxious during the examination and to read through the answers a few more times, the trio would have long been out.

“Wow, whose family are these kids from? They are out so early.”

“Child, is this school entrance exam difficult? Were there any questions that you didn’t know how to do?”

Before the triplets could walk to their biological mother, they were surrounded by a group of parents. All these parents were very concerned about the difficulty level of the examination. They had more information than Qiao Nan. Hence, they were very clear that the results of this examination would determine the class that their child would be placed in and their child’s future for the next six years.

In front of their own family, the triplets would reveal a little of their true temperament. However, in front of outsiders, they would normally portray the images of obedient children.

In particular, Er Bao. He put away the ruffian naughtiness of bullying Xiao Bao a while ago and then carried a smile as warm as spring. At a young age, he gave others the feelings of a well-learned gentleman. At that sight of him, everyone said that he looked like he was totally cut out for studies. “Uncle and auntie, rest assured. I think the exams were quite easy.”

“Was there nothing that you didn’t know how to do?” Er Bao gave them a feeling that he was an obedient and outstanding student in the school. Facing a child with good results, the parents were always more forgiving. Furthermore, Er Bao was young and very good-looking. When facing such an exemplary child, who could bear to speak to him in a loud voice?

“No. I finished everything.”

“What about this young lady?” Finished everything? Impossible. The school entrance examination was certainly not that easy. He had found out about the situation a few years ago. There was no exception.

He could not gather anything from Er Bao. Hence, that person turned to San Bao. “Little girl, what do you think? Was the exam difficult? Were there any questions that you didn’t know how to do?” The little San Bao was wearing a baby blue flowery skirt. She had a rosy face and grape-like, watery eyes. That sweet smile of hers was sweeter than the candy floss that they had eaten before.

San Bao gave a ‘coy’ smile. “I feel that it was alright. It’s not especially difficult.” San Bao was very gentle and demure when she spoke. Her voice was clear and crisp, like that of an oriole. It sounded extremely pleasant.

“The exams are almost ending. Very soon, uncle and aunties’ children will be coming out.” At the sight that these parents did not intend to disperse, Da Bao added. Da Bao just wanted to express one meaning: The three of them had finished the examination earlier. They felt that the questions were easy but it was not an accurate reflection of the difficulty level. Everyone had different standards and they would feel differently when attempting the questions.

As if to prove Da Bao’s words, the bell signaling the end of the examination rang. These parents jerked up their heads. No longer surrounding the triplets, they were trying hard to search for their own child among the group of children who were coming out.

When the bell rang, the triplets felt liberated. They walked to Qiao Nan at their fastest speed. “Mom, I feel so hungry. Let’s go home quickly. I feel like eating the dumplings made by you.” San Bao almost wanted to rub her tummy to express the extent of her hunger.

Fortunately, she did not as she very quickly realized that she was outside and not at home. Hence, she would definitely not do such a crude action outside.

“Yes, yes. Auntie, Xiao Bao is also hungry. Go home and eat the fair and chubby dumplings.” As the supporters of his cousins, just as San Bao said that, Xiao Bao immediately stood out and backed San Bao up. He took advantage of the fact that he was younger. He was well aware that his words were sometimes more effective than those of his cousins.

There was no issue. If his cousins’ words did not work, he would help repeat them, as long as the final outcome was the same.

Qiao Nan had not thought of declining San Bao either. It was very normal for children to feel hungry as they were still growing. Furthermore, as long as the children did not request for outside food, Qiao Nan had never rejected their requests for additional meals or special requests of homemade food. “Sure, let’s go home and make dumplings. We will make the skin on our own too, okay?”

“Okay, the dumplings that auntie makes taste the best.” Xiao Bao clapped continuously and happily that even his hands had turned red from the clapping. Homemade skin would taste especially chewy. The triplets and Xiao Bao especially liked the feel and taste of chewing the dumpling skin made at home.

However, it was too cumbersome to prepare dumpling skin. Mother Tian was not good at cooking. Not to mention preparing the skin, she was also not very familiar with wrapping the dumplings. Even Mother Tian did not know how to it. One could not expect much from Zhai Hua then. As one could imagine, only the Zhai family could satisfy Xiao Bao’s desire of eating such food.

“Alright, let’s get into the car.” Different from other parents who held onto their children once they were out, questioning them this and that to confirm how they had fared in the examinations, Qiao Nan did not mention the examination at all. She knew that her children were hungry. Hence, she asked them to get into the car quickly so that they could go home to make dumplings. Although the auntie would help Qiao Nan prepare the fillings, rolling the skin and wrapping the dumplings were all completed by Qiao Nan alone.

If they really wanted to eat dumplings, they still had to spend some time making them.

It was only after the triplets left with Qiao Nan did the parents who surrounded the triplets earlier realize from their children’s words that the three children who came out together were rare triplets and from the same family. “How did the parents raise these three kids? So beautiful and smart.”

Two of the children responded that the questions were not that difficult. Although the elder one did not say much, they could tell that he had not fared badly either. On the contrary, when they asked their own children, they said that it was difficult, something they had not learned before. At the sound of it, they knew that their children did not fare too well in the examination.

Sigh, they were all children. Why was there such a huge difference between them? Why was it that the children who did not find the questions difficult were not from their family?

“They are triplets, right? Such a good fortune. The children are both beautiful and smart.”
