Chapter 29: Chapter 29 Planning to Self-Study
Just as she was about to say something, Bai Yuhua came in again.
Bai Yuhua saw that Jiang Xue had finished the soup and eaten some meat. She smiled and said, "Xue’er, the meal is ready. Do you want to eat a bit more?"
"Mom, no, I’m already full. You all go ahead and eat." Jiang Xue shook her head. She was already very full. If she ate more, she would be too stuffed.
"Alright then, you rest well. We’ll go eat first, and when the baby wakes up, we’ll come back." Bai Yuhua said, collected the bowls, and left the room.
Mu Qiancheng did not leave immediately. He looked at Jiang Xue and asked, "Are you really full?"
You couldn’t blame him for doubting; Jiang Xue really hadn’t eaten much. Just a bowl of soup, a few pieces of meat. It wasn’t as much as she usually ate.
"Really full." Jiang Xue looked at Mu Qiancheng, and with a thought, she knew what he was thinking. So she said, "Don’t worry about me, I really am full. Instead, you didn’t eat well on the road and must be starving, go eat."
Jiang Xue gave Mu Qiancheng a gentle push, urging him to go eat.
"Alright, I’ll go eat. If you get hungry, just call me."
"Okay!" Jiang Xue nodded, watched Mu Qiancheng leave, and took a deep breath.
After the meal, the child was still sleeping, but Jiang Xue couldn’t fall asleep and was a bit bored. She thought about reading a book, but there was none in the room.
The extremely bored Jiang Xue remembered the method for cultivating spiritual energy she had learned earlier, so she sat up in bed and began to meditate with concentration.
She slowly directed the spiritual energy within her body to circle around herself once.
After one round, she felt much more comfortable. Her body, previously damaged from childbirth, felt much better.
Feeling energetic, Jiang Xue glanced at the still sleeping baby, got up, and found a book from the chest containing her dowry.
She picked up her high school textbook. Because her parents were sick, she dropped out after reaching high school. Now, although she was married and couldn’t go back to school, she could take self-study exams.
No matter what, she had to get a college diploma. Whether for finding a job or anything else in the future, having a diploma would make things much easier.
When Mu Qiancheng returned from eating, he hurried into the room and saw Jiang Xue sitting on the bed reading a book.
Seeing this scene, Mu Qiancheng was a bit surprised. He knew Jiang Xue used to love studying as well, but she dropped out because Father Jiang fell ill. After marrying him, she brought her books along, but never picked them up again because of her resentment.
But now, she was reading again. Could it be that she wanted to go to college?
If that’s the case, what should he do? Stop her? Mu Qiancheng felt conflicted. He knew that with Jiang Xue’s previous academic performance, if she hadn’t married and had gone for another year of review, getting into college would have been easy.
Mu Qiancheng’s heart was very conflicted. He wanted Jiang Xue to be ambitious but was also afraid she would leave him after getting into college.
While he was mulling over this, Jiang Xue noticed him and asked, "You finished eating so quickly?"
"Finished." Mu Qiancheng walked over to Jiang Xue, glanced at the book in her hand, and said, "Reading a book, huh."
"Yeah, not much else to do, so I might as well find a book to read, to avoid overthinking." Jiang Xue smiled, not revealing her plans to Mu Qiancheng for now.
First, she was still in confinement, and it’s still early to talk about self-study exams. Second, she had forgotten most of what she learned before and wanted to review to see how much she could remember.
"Reading is good." Mu Qiancheng suppressed his inner worry and smiled.
