Li Chenmo entered the office, shook hands with the principal, took his seat and said, "Principal, I’m here to register Dong Li and Dong Huang today."
The principal nodded and said, "We need to give the children some tests before we can decide which grade they will start."
Hearing this, Li Chenmo nodded and said, "We will follow the principal’s arrangement."
The principal took out two examination papers and handed them to the Dong siblings. Everyone knew that the Dong siblings had never been to school, so the principal had already expected that they would fail the exam and planned to put them into the first grade.
But thirty minutes later, both Dong Li and Dong Huang had finished the exam. When the principal checked their answers, he was surprised.
Dong Huang answered 90% of the answers correctly and can be assigned to the second grade. But what surprised him even more was Dong Li. He answered all questions correctly.
The principal put down his pen, looked at Dong Li and asked, "Dong Li, have you studied before?"
Dong Li nodded and said, "It was my father who taught me when he was alive."
Hearing this, the principal nodded and asked, "In that case, how about I give you another test?"
Dong Li was born with high IQ and completed the third grade course at the age of 6 under his parents’ teaching. Unfortunately, his father died when he was 7 years old, a year after his mother passed away during childbirth. At that time, his sister was only one year old.
Without his parents, he could only read by himself and teach his sister at night while working during the day. Therefore, his progress was much slower in these past years.
Li Chenmo sat aside and looked at him thoughtfully. He didn’t expect to find a genius here. With Dong Li’s intelligence, if he were born in modern times, he would become an Olympiad champion.
Two hours later, the principal was all smiles as he checked the last exam paper. The way he looked at Dong Li and Dong Huang changed dramatically. Although there is no longer a university, as teacher, he is still very happy to find a good talent.
He looked at them and said, "According to their test results, Dong Huang will start in the second grade and Dong Li will start in the sixth grade."
Li Chenmo took out thirty yuan from his pocket, put it on the table, and said, "Principal, this is three months’ tuition for their school. Please take care of them."
Seeing him pay three months of tuition in one go, the principal was surprised and his respect for him increased. No one was willing to spend so much money on someone else’s children, but he paid without hesitation. The principal readily agreed and said, "Comrade Li, don’t worry. I will take good care of them."
