"Ani, you mean you got your medical license? So you are a doctor now?" Xie Xinlian’s eyes lit up. This was the happiest news she had heard recently.
Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly, without much pride. "This license just proves I can practice medicine. I am not a real doctor yet. Just a barefoot doctor."
"That is still your skill. Hurry up, where is the certificate? Let Mama see it." Xie Xinlian was very excited. Her daughter’s success made her feel proud and tall.
Zhu Yanyi did not hide it. She took the small booklet from her bag and gave it to Xie Xinlian. Xie Xinlian held it carefully, her eyes shining. "Our Ani is so amazing. She has a medical license."
"Mama, I am back." Zhu Yanli walked in. Seeing Zhu Yanyi, she cheered and ran over. "Ani, why didn’t you send a telegram? We could have picked you up."
"No need. It was not dangerous." Zhu Yanyi waved her hand with a smile.
Zhu Yanli saw Xie Xinlian looking carefully at a small booklet. "Mama, what are you looking at?"
"Ani’s Traditional Chinese Medicine license." Xie Xinlian handed it to Zhu Yanli.
Zhu Yanli looked at it and cheered again. "Ani, you are so amazing."
Zhu Yanyi smiled. Seeing everyone so happy for her, she could only smile helplessly. "Sister, did you get into that high school?"
Zhu Yanli smiled, closed the license carefully, and handed it back to Zhu Yanyi. Then she took a notice from her schoolbag. "City No. 1 High School."
"City No. 1 High School. Good. That is the key high school in Yao City." Zhu Yanyi knew Zhu Yanli’s fate had changed completely from this moment. In her past life, Zhu Yanli only finished middle school. Now she would go to high school. This meant the hard fate of her past life was gone.
Zhu Yanli looked very happy. "By the way, Ani, your notice came too. It says you are recommended to City Middle School."
Usually, students could only go to middle schools in their local area. For example, children from Sicheng Town could only go to the town middle school. To go to the city, one needed very good grades and a recommendation spot. Zhu Yanyi had qualified for this spot.
Zhu Yanyi was slightly surprised. "City Middle School? Isn’t that only for students in the center of Yao City? We belong to Yao City, but we are in the countryside. According to custom, I should only go to Sicheng Town Middle School."
"I heard the entrance exam was unified for the whole Yong City. You got first place. You could have gone to Yong City Middle School." Zhu Yanli said this, then realized something. "Ani, did you not think about that?"
"What could I think? Was it because I could have gone to Yong City Middle School, but since Yao City belongs to Yong City, we cannot compare with students in the main district? If I went there, I would probably have to pay a selection fee." Zhu Yanyi understood, a slight smile on her lips.
