Chapter 810 Somewhat flattered
As soon as the Xiao family's car left, the villagers started gathering in small groups again: "The Shanliang family has really turned their lives around now."

"What are you saying? His name is Changsheng now, Xiao Changsheng. You can't call him by his old name anymore."

"Look at my memory, right, right, it's Changsheng. What a great name! I never imagined that the first family in our village to move to the city would be them."

"If Xia Qiu had married a year later, she might have been able to marry a city man."

"Who can see in the future? Once Changsheng and the others have established themselves in the city, they might be able to help the young couple out."

"Oh dear, even if you don't go to the city, I'm afraid no one will dare to bully Xia Qiu in her husband's family. After all, times have changed, and her husband's family will have to think twice."

"Oh my, Bai Dalou, you're something else! You've become a cultured person, and you can even speak like the educated youth from the city."

The people around laughed when they heard this.

No one noticed the Liu family women standing not far behind them.

Ge Xiulan gritted her teeth and said, "That bitch Zhao Lamei is really lucky; she actually managed to get into the city."

Su Hongjuan's eyes were fixed on the truck leaving the village, her face full of envy.

Ding Surong, true to her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship with Ge Xiulan, wore the same expression. Touching her still-flat stomach, she felt the whole world owed her something and that she shouldn't be living this kind of life.

If Chuxue knew what she was thinking, she would definitely applaud him. She's right, your life shouldn't be like this, but unfortunately, your nightmare is me.

Everyone from the second branch of the family has lived a good life; they shouldn't expect to benefit from the Xiao family's influence in any way.

The car sent to pick them up took Xiao Changsheng and his family of three directly to the compensation yard. In just a few days, the house had been furnished, and even the pots and pans in the kitchen were ready. They could move in immediately.

To be honest, Mr. and Mrs. Xiao were somewhat flattered. Old Master Xiao came to wait for them personally: "Changsheng, this courtyard has been transferred to your name. From now on, live a good life with Lamei. Once you're settled, just go to the train station to report for duty. As for Chunxiao's school, we've already made arrangements, but there will be a test there."

At this point, he turned to Chunxiao, who had followed him, and asked, "Grandpa hasn't asked you yet how your grades were at your old school?"

Chunxiao was excitedly looking at the house when her grandfather suddenly asked about her studies, leaving her momentarily speechless.

After a long pause, she stammered, "It's not particularly good."

She wanted to lie, but she knew that her newly recognized grandfather was very strict and wouldn't tolerate any flaws. If she made a bad impression on him right away, it would be very difficult to build a good relationship with him later.

When Grandpa Xiao saw her expression, he was about to say something when he heard him say, "There is definitely a difference in the quality of education between the countryside and the city. Here's what we'll do: I'll talk to your cousin later and ask him to come over and tutor you when he has time."

Chunxiao was startled by these words: "Grandpa, let's not trouble my little cousin. My second sister has excellent grades. I'll have her tutor me later."

When Grandpa Xiao heard his granddaughter's suggestion, he thought it was feasible: "Okay, let's do it this way for now."

Seeing that her grandfather had agreed, Chunxiao breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to embarrass herself in front of the rest of the Xiao family.

She had already made up her mind. Now that she was in the city and had such a powerful grandfather, she couldn't afford to be too bad.

Now that her eldest sister is married and her second sister is engaged, she is the only girl left in the family. She can tell that her grandfather wants to make up for her father's shortcomings, so why not take advantage of it? Who knows, with her grandfather's connections, she might marry even better than her second sister in the future.

Having figured it out, he naturally had a plan in mind: "Grandpa, don't worry, I will try my best to catch up with the pace of this school, and strive to gradually adapt this semester and catch up next semester, so as not to embarrass you."

Grandpa Xiao had seen all sorts of people, and he had already seen through his granddaughter's cleverness: "Alright, Grandpa is waiting for your good news."

Chunxiao thought she had spoken flawlessly and was still smugly pleased with herself, thinking that she must work hard to get along well with her grandfather and become the most obedient granddaughter in his heart.
