Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Er Ya's first day at kindergarten was still a blur.

Chen An'an was called into the room by her dad for a serious talk.

From now on, she must not mislead Er Ya with nonsense, Chen An'an obediently agreed with an "oh."

The three little ones at home each had their own fun, and in the evening, Chen Qi even brought her husband Hu Lin over.

After coming to Magic City, Hu Lin has been teaching at a private middle school and doing quite well.

However, when it comes to education nowadays, he is also deeply worried.

Mainly because there are more and more private tutoring institutions, and they are growing in scale.

And the income of a private tutor can easily be two or three times that of a school teacher.

To put it bluntly, to get into a good university now,

parents must send their children to private tutoring classes outside of school.

And the cost of those tutoring classes starts at seventy to eighty thousand a year, and hundred thousand plus isn't a big deal.

Only when it reaches a few hundred thousand does it become somewhat significant.

And this is merely the annual tutoring fee for middle school or even primary school students.

To put it bluntly, the college entrance exam was originally the most fair and just path to social mobility.

But now, the exorbitant tutoring fees have shut out most rural children and even those from average families from school gates.

And if teachers want to earn a high income, they definitely have to give private lessons on the side.

Over time, this will create a huge disparity in society.

When it becomes harder for Poor Families to produce outstanding children, it's hard to imagine what kind of outcome that will be.

Hu Lin is not very high in emotional intelligence and not particularly good at dealing with people.

But having originated from a rural village university, he could better understand what fair education and the college entrance exam system mean to ordinary people.

Once this pathway is cut off, he can't even begin to imagine how many rural parents would fall into despair.

Even if they give it their all, they would struggle to afford the astronomical tutoring fees.

Chen Pingsheng drank his tea calmly, quietly listening to him talk about the current state of the education industry.

Hu Lin was quite worried about things that are out of his control, but his concerns were not without reason.

Those children who study in rural schools, no matter how hard they try, would find it difficult to outperform those who regularly attend tutoring classes.

This is both a fact and the current situation in the entire education industry.

Chen Pingsheng said, "There are certainly many drawbacks to these things, but you don't have to worry too much. Education is the foundation of a country, and the authorities will certainly not ignore this. Perhaps it won't be long before corresponding policies are implemented."

Some things he could see clearly, but could not easily speak out.

Like the education sector, he had actually received a lot of information.

But he would definitely not reveal it in advance.

At his level, the extent of information access is simply unimaginable to his brother-in-law.

If Hu Lin were to speak out, it could be considered a complaint or just one person's opinion.

If it came from Chen Pingsheng's mouth, it would have significant social influence.

Hu Lin just spoke his mind about a few things.

There were teachers at their school who didn't teach well in class, deliberately sending students to private institutions to cover the key points.

He had them reported and expelled.

This battle made him famous and completely ruined his interpersonal relationships at school.

Wanting to be a principled person who does not follow the tide is often the easiest to be rejected by those around.

Chen Pingsheng understood him, and did not criticize him.

Instead, he had the school principal invited out, with Zhang Wanyi stepping in to invite them to dinner.

Having his secretary invite them to dinner already gave them a lot of face. Experience new stories on My Virtual Library Empire

They knew what to do, after all, Hu Lin's teaching reputation was quite good.

That Chen Qi took pride in Hu Lin being principled is unmatched, and the couple has always had a great relationship.

My sister-in-law Song Wu's situation is different.

After she left the entertainment industry, she and Yang Changwen started a short video company.

Thanks to her years of hard work in the entertainment circle, she had a high starting point, and the results have been very good.

Plus, short videos have been the biggest entrepreneurial trend in the past few years.

It's no wonder that they've been doing so well.

Chen Pingsheng says he doesn't support them, but in reality, he has given them quite a lot of resources.

It's just that men in the entertainment industry are rarely honest, including Song Wu's husband, who she married less than a few months ago.

He's been supporting a long-term girlfriend from college.

He still makes sure to come home before ten every night, not daring to let Song Wu find out.

Sometimes Chen Pingsheng finds it hard to deal with this kind of thing. Whether to tell his wife or sister-in-law.

A newly married couple will definitely have a row.

If he doesn't tell her, it seems improper, and what's most important is that wealthy men rarely don't cheat.

Especially those who are good-looking and have had good conditions since they were young.

Song Wu's personality used to be quite bad, but after being battered by society for a couple of years, she has improved a lot.

At least now, as her brother-in-law, he can look at her favorably.

He always hoped that Song Wu would settle down with someone to spend her life with.

Unfortunately, she never liked anyone, only those especially good-looking ones in the entertainment circle.

Now, even he finds it hard to deal with this situation.

Chen Pingsheng decides he better ask his wife and see what she thinks.

Song Yanxi is very adamant, she believes that a man's infidelity is the greatest betrayal to his wife.

Not worthy of forgiveness at all.

Song Yanxi asks him suspiciously, "Old Chen, it isn't you, is it?"

"How could it be me?"

Chen Pingsheng says, "It's your sister's husband, Yang Changwen. He's got a pretty school beauty from the art school and thinks he has been very secretive about it. No one has spoken about it, and he only dares to visit her during the day under the guise of company business. Ultimately, he underestimated Tengying Entertainment's influence in the industry. It was the girl's best friend who went directly to the headquarters and reported it to Zhang Wanyi herself."

"Hmph…" Song Yanxi's face turns a furious shade of iron blue. Her sister's wedding was a grand affair.

Half of Magic City was aware of it, and look how long it's been since.

"Give me my phone. I'm going to call him and ask him in person."

"What's there to ask? Do you think he'd admit it?"

Chen Pingsheng says, "You should first consider whether or not to tell your sister."

"Of course, I'm telling her."

"And then what, they get a divorce right away?"

Chen Pingsheng puts down his teacup and asks, "You've also been in the upper echelon of society for so long, you should be used to this sort of thing by now. Besides, your sister is just pregnant. Even if we have to tell her, now is not the time.

"Let me handle it."

His wife is quick-tempered. Upon hearing the news, she couldn't wait to deal with it.

This won't do.

"What are you planning to do?"

"I'll give you a satisfactory answer."

Chen Pingsheng turns off the lights to sleep; his wife is not very mobile at the moment.

Tomorrow, he also has to take their two little kids to school.

Even though their bodyguard could always do this, he still doesn't want to miss out on the chance to grow up with his children.

As for the matter with his sister-in-law, he'll have to deal with that too.

Adult relationships are rarely pure.

As various factors mix together, things only become more complicated.
