Jiang Changhai walked over and started knocking on the door loudly, his knocking sounding almost like banging, causing the old yellow dog at the school gate to bark even louder.
Jiang Mianmian, "... Dad, can you knock a little lighter?"
"Just a moment," said the bespectacled man, brimming with the aura of a scholar as he opened the door. It was Teacher Liu Wen, the supportive teacher from the village, "Hello, may I ask who it is?"
Jiang Changhai put his daughter down from his back, "Teacher, I'm here to enroll my daughter for fourth grade!"
Teacher Liu put on her glasses and took a look, the little girl was fair and tender, pleasing to the eye, unlike the scrawny children from the countryside.
Feeling the scrutinizing gaze, she lifted her face, looking steadily back at him.
Teacher Liu was taken aback and frowned, "How old are you to be entering the fourth grade?"
Jiang Mianmian puffed out her chest, "I'm eight years old!"
