Chapter 264: Chapter 264 She Knows Everything Chapter 264: Chapter 264 She Knows Everything The Jiang family members reacted like oil splattered by water–they erupted in excitement: “Our family is going to produce another prodigy!”

Having seen the example set by Jiang Mianmian, the Jiang family members subconsciously believed that Zhaodi would be just as intelligent as Jiang Mianmian and that the Jiang Family was about to produce another genius prodigy.

Amongst them, the couple from the second branch was the most excited. Their daughter was going to make them proud, having someone educated in their family at last.

Zhang Guihua, seeing that Zhaodi was like Jiang Mianmian, capable of reciting ancient poems even before attending school, felt her heart waver.

Once Zhaodi started school, she would definitely also win scholarships. The annual scholarships for both granddaughters would amount to forty dollars, which meant she could receive twenty dollars herself–a truly profitable deal.

But the couple from the third branch just couldn’t bring themselves to be happy.

They had already been overshadowed by Jiang Mianmian, who nearly made their sons Zhiwen and Zhiwu seem non-existent, and now they were going to have Zhaodi added to the equation.

Would the old couple even notice their two sons anymore?

As expected, Jiang Dashan gave his approval: “Alright, Zhaodi, when school reopens, we’ll send you to study.”

“Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma. I will study hard, and when I earn money, I will support you,” Zhaodi sweetly cajoled.

Despite her dislike for her grandparents, she was currently dependent on them for a living, so she had no choice but to ingratiate herself with the family heads.

The other girls in the house, seeing that it was agreed for Zhaodi to go to school, were all very happy for her.

Er Ya was also happy for her sister, but at the same time, she felt a tinge of sadness, not knowing when she herself would be able to go to school.

It was at this moment that Jiang Changhai came back home, carrying a big chunk of mutton, along with his wife and daughter.

Zhang Guihua, upon seeing what he was holding, joyfully took the mutton: “Eldest, what made you think of buying mutton? Isn’t mutton more expensive than pork?”

“It’s a bit more expensive than pork, but not by much. In this cold winter, it’s good to eat mutton; it warms the body and is nourishing. You and Dad are getting on in years, eating some mutton is good for your health,” Jiang Changhai replied ingratiatingly.

Zhang Guihua, feeling her son was so filial, couldn’t help but beam with a smile: “Oh, it’s my eldest son who knows how to be considerate. I haven’t had mutton very often over the years. Let’s have mutton tonight.”

Jiang Dashan was also quite pleased; while their eldest son may have mixed around a bit, his filial piety was genuinely beyond question.

Although Sun Lixia was initially happy to see the mutton and thought she was in for a treat, she felt quite put off upon hearing her mother-in-law praise the Eldest so effusively.

Was it only considered filial to buy things for the family? Didn’t their hard, honest work on the farm count for anything?

After placing the mutton in the kitchen, Zhang Guihua returned, brimming with elation: “Eldest, you’ve come back late, so you might not know that our family has another prodigy. Zhaodi, the child, just had to hear Er Ya recite a few ancient poems a couple of times, and she remembered them all. We’ll send Zhaodi to school when it reopens, and she will definitely come top and win a scholarship.”

After a pause, she added, “And the Immortal also said that Zhaodi would surely achieve great things after going to school.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mianmian and her parents all glanced involuntarily at Zhaodi, who was pretending to be well-behaved on the side.

Jiang Changhai merely responded with a nonchalant “Oh”: “Well, that’s really good news.”

He was aware of Zhaodi’s abnormalities and therefore wouldn’t be surprised by anything she did or any extraordinary talent she displayed.

Jiang Mianmian, having read many novels about rebirth through eras, was even less surprised. She also knew exactly what Zhaodi was thinking.
