<h4>Chapter 295</h4>


    An JingZhi arrived home earlier than her. As soon as Zi Xia walked in the door, she saw him guiding Wen Qing with her homework.


    Zhou Nan brought in the clothes that had just been dried and asked her, "Today is the first day of school, isn''t it? Did you juste back from school?"


    Zi Xia nodded, "I just got back. I have something I want to ask Dad."


    Her second brother and his wife had taken the children to Beijing, otherwise she would have gone directly to her second brother.


    An JingZhi had just finished exining the questions to Wen Qing when he heard her say she had something to ask him, so he turned around and said, "What''s the matter?"


    Zi Xia seldom looked for him alone. An JingZhi was aware of this point.


    He sat on a stool in the living room and took a sip of water. Zi Xia took the opportunity to sit not far from him.


    "I want to ask about the Gao family. Gao Dazhuang and Li Xiu should have been convicted of crimes, right? Under these circumstances, can their children take the college entrance examination and go to university?" Zi Xia said directly.


    "Impossible. Although university admissions this year are open to people from all walks of life, criminals cannot take the college entrance examination, nor can they pass the political review," An JingZhi answered without hesitation. At the same time, he also realized from these words that the question Zi Xia asked was different. "What''s going on? Is there someone from the Gao family who got into college? However, Gao Dazhuang and Li Xiu''s direct rtives cannot pass the political review, but it does not affect their nsmen. And when the two were convicted at the time, many of their rtives chose to sever ties directly."


    Even their pair of children were not implicated at that time. It was because they announced severing ties in front of the vige chief and Gao family elders, and the siblings even personally denounced Gao Dazhuang and Li Xiu''s crimes themselves in order to remove thebel of "bad element" from themselves.


    At that time, criminal elements were much more serious thanndlords. Moreover, a lot of gold and silver were found in Gao Dazhuang''s home that, after interrogation, were determined to have been illegally obtained during thend reform movement. With two crimesbined, he was sentenced directly to fifteen years.


    "But I saw Gao Second Sister. She now goes by the name Gao Qingcheng and is in the same ss as me," said Zi Xia.


    An JingZhi''s eyes darkened for a long time without speaking.


    He did not doubt Zi Xia''s words, he was just thinking about the possibility of this matter.


    "I will go to Anle Vige in person this weekend to get to the bottom of this. If Gao Second Sister is really Gao Qingcheng, no matter what means she used to obtain the political review, she will not be able to stay at Jincheng University," he finally said.


    It wasn''t that An Jingzhi and Zi Xia were merciless, but they both knew clearly that the country currentlycked talents in all walks of life. The first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination were bound to have unlimited prospects when they graduated and could easily be assigned to work in government agencies and departments.


    Once the Gao family rose again, they would definitely not let the An family live in peace.


    So while An Jingzhi could overlook the Gao siblings, he would never give them a chance to turn the tables.


    When she returned home, Sister Zhang had already prepared dinner and was just waiting for her toe back to start the meal.


    Zi Xia told them that they didn''t need to wait for her toe back in the future, and if she came backte, they could start eating first.


    The next day after finishing the noon ss, Zi Xia had just closed her textbook when she heard the loud voice of the ss monitor. "ssmates, don''t leave yet. I heard our ssmate Gao Qingcheng identally fell into the water yesterday and is seriously ill in the hospital. As ssmates, I think we should send some representatives to visit her, so as to fulfill our friendship as schoolmates. What do you think?"


    Knowing this, Zi Xia closed her textbook and walked out.


    "An Zi Xia, we are discussing things, don''t go yet!" Seeing that she was already at the door, the ss monitor hurriedly called out.


    Zi Xia looked back, "I think we have just started school and don''t know each other well yet. Those who have a good rtionship with Gao Qingcheng and want to visit can take the initiative to organize it. As for me, since I''m not familiar with her, I''d rather not force myself to go."


    "How can you say that!"


    "We are all ssmates, how can she say that!" said the people behind.


    Zi Xia had already walked away and didn''t care what else they were saying about her, she only knew because Wang Li had passed it on to her.


    Most people were very understanding.


    It was Zi Xia’s words that day that made many financially strapped and thin-skinned ssmates likewise stop contributing money.


    On Sunday, Zi Xia got up before dawn.


    The twins now had their own rooms. The triplets and Little Six slept in one room with two beds for them to roll around freely.


    The children were still asleep. She took clothes out of the closet and put them beside each of them separately.


    Chenye rubbed his eyes in confusion, "Mom, it''s not even dawn yet, why did you get up so early?"


    Zi Xia walked over to his bedside and whispered, "Mom has something to do today, so I got up a little earlier. I already told Sister Zhang yesterday that she wille over early today. Keep an eye on your younger brothers. If they wake up before Sister Zhanges, let them stay under the quilts first so they don''t catch cold, okay?"


    "Okay," Chenye obediently responded.


    Zi Xia touched his forehead, "It''s still early, go back to sleep for a while."


    Seeing him close his eyes again, Zi Xia went out the door.


    The foggy early morning chill was even worse. Zi Xia rode her bike with her wool coat wrapped tightly around her. She was also wearing leather gloves with a scarf covering half her face.


    By the time she arrived at the An family home, the fog had dissipated a lot.


    She leaned over the gate to listen. There were already sounds of talking in the yard, so she knocked on the door.


    "Coming! Who is it so early in the morning?" Zhou Nan grumbled before hurrying over to open the door in surprise, "Zi Xia, why did youe over?"


    Instead of answering, Zi Xia asked back, "Is Dad up?"


    "He''s up and about to leave," said Zhou Nan, gesturing for her toe in quickly. "Don''t tell me you want to go with him?"


    She had guessed right again. Zi Xia did intend to go to Anle Vige.


    When An Jingzhi found out, he didn''t say anything, just took her along with him when he set off.


    They left before seven o''clock and arrived after ten.


    An Jingzhi nced at his watch and said, "Let''s go to your grandma''s house first, and then go to Anle Vigeter."


    Zhou Nan had asked him to visit a rtive on the way, after all it was rare for him toe back, so it was only right to drop by and see them.


    That way, the timing would be just right, as they wouldn’t be able to chat in the afternoon.


    Zi Xia nodded. Seeing the big and small packages hanging from his bike, she already knew he must be going to the Zhou family.


    The Zhou family weed their arrival. An Jingzhi took the things off and handed them over, saying that he still had to go to Anle Vige and would not stay for lunch.


    Old Lady Zhou said a few more words before letting them leave.


    Pushing the bike forward, Zi Xia inadvertently looked back and saw Old Lady Zhou still following behind them to send them off, a gleam visible in her cloudy eyes.


    Zhou Nan was Old Lady Zhou’s only daughter, and she was no longer young either, already using a cane.


    With Zhou Nan so busy at home, she could onlye back once or twice a year, and always in a rush.


    An Jingzhi did not have much affection for the Zhou family. Visiting rtives was like a routine for him, otherwise he would not have just left things and departed after such a brief visit.


    His only redeeming quality was probably that he was quite generous and would not grumble about Zhou Nan caring too much for her maternal family.


    And Zhou Nan probably thought that since she couldn’te back often, giving more things to her mother would allow Old Lady Zhou to keep her standing.


    Otherwise, if her own daughter didn''t care at all, why would the daughter-inw be expected to?


    She must miss her daughter very much!


    Zi Xia stopped and turned back to ask Zhou Granny, "Granny, I''lle get youter and take you to the city to stay for a while, okay?"
