On the way back, Cheng Zewen kept his head down.

He had something on his mind, so he wasn't in a very good mood.

Suddenly, Cheng Zewen felt a weight on his shoulder, and his brother's thin arm took the initiative to extend it to him.

"Zewen, no matter what others say, don't be afraid. I am here and I will always protect you."

"If they continue to bully you, I will ask grandpa and grandma to let me be in the same class with you."

"I will follow you closely from now on. Who dares to hit you?"

Shen Huaian's words made Cheng Zewen feel warm in his heart.

"Brother, you are so kind."

Cheng Zewen originally wanted to talk to his brother about inviting the parents, but he was afraid that he would have a psychological burden.

The words came to his lips but he swallowed them back. He didn't say anything until he got home.

After returning home, they went to their room and started doing their homework.

They did record the homework, but they just didn't know how to do it.

Jiang Wan had been busy with magazine affairs for some time and had almost no time to take care of them.

She had finally arranged her work today and got off an early shift. As soon as she came back, she keenly noticed that the atmosphere at home was not right.

As soon as Shen Huaian and Cheng Zewen came back, they retreated to their room and locked the door.

"Daughter-in-law, we are embarrassed to tell you since you are busy with work these days."

"Those two kids are very quiet every day. They lock themselves in their rooms after school. I don't know if they have been wronged in school."

"Every time we would send them to school or ask them how school was going, they would say it was fine."

"The children had just returned and were not familiar with us. We tried our best but could not get into their hearts. We really had no way to communicate with them."

"You brought both children back. You are familiar with them. Go and see them."

Jiang Wan had originally planned to go see them, and now that her parents-in-law had asked for it, she had to go even more.

"Okay, I'll go take a look now."

When Jiang Wan walked in, she clearly heard someone talking in the room. When she knocked on the door, the room suddenly became quiet.

"It's me, Mom is back."

"Mom has something to tell you, can you open the door?"

After a brief silence, the two children ran over almost at the same time.

They opened the door together and excitedly invited Jiang Wan in.

"Mom, come in quickly. Mom, come in quickly."

After saying this, the two of them pulled her in together.

As soon as Jiang Wan came in, he noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange.

Cheng Zewen looked depressed, and Shen Huaian was not in a good mood either.

"How's it been like going to school?"

Jiang Wan glanced at them and asked in a businesslike manner. The two of them looked at each other, nodded and said.

"pretty good."

Jiang Wan glanced at them and felt that their words were insincere.

“Are the classmates in the class easy to get along with?”

Jiang Wan kept staring into Cheng Zewen's eyes while asking questions.

This little guy is the most innocent. Even if he tells a lie, his eyes can't deceive people.

"It's okay."

Cheng Zewen stuttered when he spoke, and Jiang Wan knew he must be lying.

She remembered this incident and planned to talk about it in detail later.

"Did the school have any exams recently? How did you do?"

When Jiang Wan asked this question, both of them lowered their heads. Although they didn't say anything, Jiang Wan already knew that it must be an exam.

"You two haven't been to school for a few days, and you haven't studied before, so it's normal that you didn't do well on the test."

Jiang Wan did not continue to ask about the results, but took the initiative to stand on their side and speak.

The two brothers were very moved and nodded continuously.

They all know the reasons why they did not do well in the exam, but they still feel pressured no matter what.

"I definitely didn't pass, so I just wanted to ask how many points you got?"

Neither of them answered, and Jiang Wan added with a smile.

"Don't worry, no matter what score you get on the test, mom won't laugh at you or say anything to you."

"Mom, I can't do anything on the test. I only got 12 points. Am I terrible?"

Shen Huaian lowered his head in shame and didn't dare to look him in the eyes.

He was waiting for his mother to criticize him, but he didn't expect his mother to say it with a smile.

"You got this score right after the start of the semester and haven't learned anything yet. It seems like you're pretty good."

Jiang Wan praised him, and Shen Huaian exclaimed, hardly believing his ears.

"Mom, I got 12 points on the test, don't you blame me? You even praised me for doing well on the test?"

"Yeah, didn't you say you couldn't do it? Then you must have guessed it."

"It is not easy to get 12 points by guessing correctly, which means I got six multiple-choice questions right. I will try to get all the correct answers next time."

Jiang Wan's relaxed attitude made Shen Huaian breathe a sigh of relief.

"Mom, I was unlucky and only got four points in the test because I only guessed correctly on two multiple-choice questions. Am I really that bad?"

Cheng Zewen scratched his scalp embarrassedly. Jiang Wan knew that the child was upset and did not say a word of blame.

"Four points is four points. Even if it's 0 points, it's nothing."

"By the way, do you want to study hard? I have a way to help you improve your studies."

Jiang Wan didn't blame them at all, and the two brothers were very touched.

They are not born poor students, nor do they not want to learn. It's just that their foundation is too poor and they really can't keep up in the early stages.

Now that their mother says she will tell them how to improve, of course they are happy to do so.

"Yes, we are willing to learn."

"But learning is so difficult. I don't know where to start."

They both scratched their heads in unison. This feeling of wanting to learn but not being able to learn well was really uncomfortable.

"Your grandparents are both intellectuals. If you don't have a good foundation, you can ask them for more advice."

“Learning is like building a house. Only when you lay a good foundation in the early stage can things get better and better later on.”

"It's normal that you don't have a good foundation at the beginning, can't do the questions, and even can't understand the teacher's lessons."

“But once you have laid a solid foundation, it will feel completely different when you study again.”

"If you don't believe me, you can go ask your grandparents. I guarantee you'll get something out of it."

Jiang Wan pulled the two brothers to sit on the edge of the bed and began to tell them about the glorious deeds of their grandparents.

"But we don't understand what the teacher says, so can we understand what grandparents say?"

Shen Huaian asked doubtfully what was in his mind.

Cheng Zewen also nodded in agreement. He had always had the same question.

"Your current teachers are not as educated as your grandparents."

"The teacher takes care of the whole class, and the content he teaches is the latest. He doesn't care about your previous foundation."

"But grandparents are your own family, and what they teach is tailored to you, and they will explain it based on your shortcomings."

"How do you know it won't work if you don't try it?"
