Jiang Mianmian crisply said, "That's not too fast, Mom, I'm almost finished with the curriculum for the first semester of the fifth grade, and I don't want to stay in elementary school forever. Going to middle school one year early would also allow me to learn more."
"Since you've decided for yourself, then go ahead and take the exam."
Su Wanyu wasn't the kind of authoritarian parent; she always respected Jiang Mianmian's choices and supported her wholeheartedly.
And knowing her daughter was very smart, grasping things at a touch when it came to learning, she wasn't worried that she would do poorly on the exam.
But they were not the kind of people who bragged about their successes before they happened; they didn't want to cause their daughter any trouble, so they tacitly kept this matter to themselves, telling no one.
On another weekend, while calling Yu Cheng at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, Jiang Mianmian told him about it.
