Chapter 2386: Unnecessary (3)
Besides, Qiao Nan had three children to take care of. She couldn’t even take care of her own daughter. How could she trouble Qiao Nan, who had three young children to take care of, with her own daughter?
Zhai Hua was reluctant and was even thinking of hiring a few tutors for Jiajia during the summer break. What Zhai Hua had not expected was for Jiajia to take the initiative herself. She was indeed as resolute as a soldier.
She had already turned eighteen, and thus, with her identity card and ticket in hand, she had gone to her grandma’s house alone. It was not as though she didn’t know them. Why would she still require her mom’s approval to head over? Her mom hadn’t gotten anyone’s approval either when she had insisted on getting married to her dad.
Zhai Hua had happily invited the hired tutor home only to find that Jiajia had left. In the end, it was the tutor who had spotted the note on the table that said that she had gone to her grandma’s house. She would send a message once she arrived in the capital.
Zhai Hua had only just read the note when she received Jiajia’s text message. Not only had Jiajia sent a message, but she had even attached a photo with the capital’s airport as the background.
Zhai Hua couldn’t help but laugh and feel angry at the same time upon seeing the photo. There was no question that she was angry at Jiajia for having left without informing her beforehand and only leaving a note before heading off to the capital alone. She should really give a child like that a good beating.
When she and Zhai Sheng had been young, they had been beaten by the old master too. Now that she was a mother herself, she had never even hit Jiajia before no matter how disobedient Jiajia had been. It was because of that that Jiajia had grown up to be so spoiled.
Thankfully, Jiajia had not gotten into any accidents this time and had arrived in the capital safely. If something had happened to Jiajia along the way, she would really… have lost the will to live.
What could Zhai Hua do since Jiajia was already in the capital? She could only make a call to her family, asking them to bring her back home. Then, she had to send the tutor off.
Thankfully, the tutor had not said much given the situation. After settling the tutor, Zhai Hua, who was used to having her world revolve around her daughter after her divorce, bought a ticket on the earliest flight to the capital to chase after her daughter.
Zhai Hua felt bad about troubling Qiao Nan. Not only did Qiao Nan have to take care of her three children, but she would even have to tutor Jiajia. But Zhai Hua was the party involved and didn’t want to interfere in the matter either. Jiajia’s English wasn’t good because she didn’t like her teacher. But Jiajia liked her aunt, Qiao Nan, very much.
Ever since Qiao Nan had given birth to the triplets, Qiao Nan had become Jiajia’s most admired person. Where else would she find such an impressive aunt who could have her uncle wrapped around her fingers and give birth to three children at once?
After Jiajia acknowledged Qiao Nan as her teacher, Qiao Nan didn’t set any assignments for Jiajia. All she did was to give Jiajia a few casual lessons after checking on Jiajia’s English level. Jiajia had already been prepared to go through hell. As such, she could not get used to Qiao Nan’s style of teaching at first.
After two days, Zhai Hua asked Jiajia in private how her classes with Qiao Nan had been. Jiajia replied that it was not difficult at all. In fact, it was even fun!
The moment Zhai Hua heard that, she secretly came to a decision to allow Jiajia to have her fun for ten days in the capital. Once they returned to Ping Cheng, she would find a tutor for Jiajia. It was rare for Qiao Nan to have the heart to teach Jiajia, and Zhai Hua thought that wasting ten days wouldn’t mean much. She would simply wait for these ten days to pass.
Her daughter had already fallen behind for two semesters. Zhai Hua couldn’t help but comfort herself with the fact that ten days wouldn’t mean much as compared to two semesters.
With that attitude, Zhai Hua became open-minded. Anyway, Jiajia wouldn’t have an easy time once she returned to Ping Cheng. Her summer break would practically be nonexistent. As such, these ten days in the capital would be the only ten days Jiajia would be able to relax. It wouldn’t be too much to give her daughter some time off.
Perhaps, it was because Jiajia had adjusted her attitude that Jiajia had reluctantly left her siblings after ten days, only bringing with her their photos.
After they returned to Ping Cheng, Zhai Hua wasted no time in finding a renowned English tutor. Jiajia’s attitude toward this tutor had softened, and she did whatever Zhai Hua told her to do.
The tutor had learned more about Jiajia’s situation through Zhai Hua. However, she decided to let Jiajia complete a practice paper to get to know her better. Of course, the tutor had set this paper based on the standards of an elite high school student.
The tutor was surprised after marking Jiajia’s paper. “Madam Zhai, I understand your feelings of wanting your daughter to excel, but I think that your daughter’s English is pretty good. It’ll put a lot of pressure on your child if you’re overly anxious. A score like that is not bad.”
The tutor had only stopped short of saying that her student today had already mastered the content of the English taught in the first year of high school. The tutor was reluctant to waste her time teaching Jiajia something she already knew. Otherwise, she might very well start to hate her. Then, her results would fall once again! “Besides, if you’re really concerned about your child’s results, you can forget about the knowledge taught in the first year. She can move on to what’s taught in the second year and go over that during her summer break.”
It was rare for her to meet such generous parents. While the tutor didn’t want to drag the student down, neither did she want to give up such a handsome salary. “If you’re willing, I’ll change my study plan once I leave. Tomorrow, we can start your child on the knowledge taught in the second year. What do you think about that?”
“Huh?” Zhai Hua understood every word that the tutor had said, but they didn’t make sense in a whole sentence. Jiajia had almost failed her term test, so how could it be possible that Jiajia’s English was good and she no longer needed tuition?
