Embarrassed, he said, "Xiaoqing, this is ten thousand—it must be a mistake. You're just a kid; you can't possibly know these things. Brother, it really is ten thousand."
Xiao Xue also looked at Gu Ruhe incredulously. If Gu Xiaoqing hadn't pointed it out, nobody would have thought much of it. But once it was mentioned, even Gu Ruhai remembered that the sponsorship fee for the city's top high school was only ten thousand. Surely, the county schools wouldn't require that much.
That's quite a discrepancy.
Everyone's gaze turned unfriendly.
"Uncle, if you're going to say that, let's straighten things out. My classmate Gu Juying is attending school at the county high school, and her parents said they only had to pay five hundred in sponsorship fees because they had connections as a military family. The highest anyone would pay is only three thousand, at most.
If you don't believe me, I can call Gu Juying here to confirm it. We can't just wrongly accuse you, Uncle."
