After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 1680 The College Entrance Examination or Recommendation Letter

"Why do we have to delay it by a year! Is it because you don't want to help us! We want her to go to university this year!" Xu Ju said as she pointed at Xia Wen agitatedly.

"It's not like that. If she enters this year, she'll be a university student admitted using her class background. If she takes the examination next year to enter university, she'll be a regular student. The difference is in the nature of her admission," Xia Wen explained.

"Then… which one is better?" Xu Ju asked.

"Regular students who are admitted through the college entrance examination have more value for sure," Xia Wen said.

"Then will there be any more students admitted by way of class background next year?" Xu Ju asked again.

"No, it will all be via the college entrance examination system in the future," Xia Wen said.

"Eldest Aunt, didn't you say that Xu Jiao's results are quite good? Then it's better for her to go to university next year by taking the college entrance examination!" Xia He said quickly.

Xu Ju used to show off in front of Xu Lan about how good Xu Jiao's results were and how outstanding she was in school. Apparently, she was often ranked in the top three in her cohort!

Furthermore, Xu Jiao's high school was considered a good school and it was quite competitive there. It was truly not easy to maintain a place in the top three spots.

Xu Jiao avoided answering the question and looked at Xia Wen suspiciously. "Is your news reliable? Why haven't we heard anything? Are you making things up because you don't want me to enter university?"

Xia Wen looked at Xu Jiao resignedly. He could not guarantee the accuracy of the news to this mother-and-daughter pair of the Xu family, but he was not someone who would say anything without any basis. At the moment, the new entry system was already confirmed and all that was left was for it to go through the approval process. However, no one could guarantee if anything would go wrong during the process. It was entirely possible for the plan to be delayed by a year or two if there was any hiccup.

"How can you say that when my eldest brother is helping you out of goodwill? What good does it do our family not to let you go to university?" Xia He looked at Xu Jiao agitatedly.

"Hey! You little bitch! Why are you throwing a tantrum! Who knows what tricks you kids have up your sleeves! You used to hate my Jiao Jiao! Now you've finally revealed your true colors! Xu Lan! This is the good daughter you brought up! So disrespectful! How lawless!" Xu Ju said as she pointed at Xia He angrily.

"The three of us all graduated from military school! Do I need to tell you the kind of value we have in the market! Your family uses our family's money, yet you're still so arrogant when you're asking us for help! In that case, we're not going to help your daughter with her university admission!" Xia He said arrogantly with her hands on her hips.

When these three children of the Xia family's eldest son were young, they all studied in schools administered by the military. Every year, there would be a few spots opened for admission to military school. Students who did not get one of the spots would return to study in normal schools. The three Xia family's children had successfully gone to military school and could be said to be exceptional among their peers.

Xu Ju was so angry that she raised her hand to hit Xia He. Xu Lan quickly grabbed Xu Ju's arm and said, "Eldest Sister, let's talk in a cordial manner. She's insensible, so don't mind her. Otherwise, if everyone is so unhappy about this, then let's forget about this matter. There's nothing that our family can do for you. Elder Sister, you should go and find another way out."

Xu Lan did not want to fall out too badly with Xu Ju, but it was in every mother's nature to protect her children. If her child had already been bullied to such an extent and she did not speak up, she would be a useless mother.

"That won't do! You agreed to help me! You can't go back on your word!" Xu Jiao said immediately.

Xu Ju straightened her clothes and coughed awkwardly before saying, "Alright, then let's do the admission by class background then. Our Jiao Jiao only wants to go to Capital University and nowhere else."

Xia Wen stood rooted to the spot in silence. Xu Lan had to raise her eyes to look at him before he reluctantly went to the study to retrieve Xu Jiao's recommendation letter for admission.

Actually, Xia Wen had already prepared the recommendation letter. He just wanted to test Xu Jiao and see if she had any ambitions. He did not expect this child to be so apathetic and to have been brought up so badly by his eldest aunt. In the future, she would become part of the 'leech tribe', those youngsters who lived off their parents!

He had learned the phrase "leech tribe" from Qiao Mei! She always came up with many strange words and phrases, but they could all aptly describe all kinds of situations.

Xu Jiao held the recommendation letter like it was a treasure item. Xu Man stood at one side and looked at Xu Jiao enviously. She felt that she probably would not get a chance to go to university in this life.
