Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 882

The head teacher took the roster and said, "Tell me about yourself! Does this name mean anything?"

The other students sat down, only Lilly was still standing, and replied, "My mother gave me this name..."

It was not easy to come up with a name for it, and she did not want to give up the word 'Lily' that her mother chose. Uncle and the others have tried their best to give her a nice name.

"Lilies are 6-tepaled flowers in a variety of shapes (trumpet, funnel, cup, bell, bowl or flat), sometimes nodding, sometimes with reflexed petals, atop stiff, unbranched stems clothed with linear to elliptic leaves. Lilies are also very resilient, and symbolizes purity."

"My mother said that she hoped that I would be as adaptable and strong as the lilies, and sprout and grow quickly..."

The students who were a little noisy at the beginning couldn't help but wow when they heard that Lilly's name had this meaning.

Hallow County was in the south, and lilies were not common there, so it felt quite novel.

Only the head teacher nodded slightly, with an imperceptible contempt on the corner of his mouth, and then nodded routinely, "Very good, sit down!"

Most parents today had experienced ugly and old fashioned names back in their days, so when naming their children, they would choose some nice names this time around. This is especially true for parents in urban areas.

So in many cases, a child's family background could be told from the name alone. Of course, it was not absolute, but was accurate in most cases.

For a name like Lilly's… Which was named after a humble flower...

The head teacher felt that she could probably guess what family background she was from.

At the beginning of school, she would conduct family surveys for students, which simply asked about their situation.

If she remembered correctly, Lilly's grandmother said that they had just arrived in the county to buy a house.

The head teacher put down the roster indifferently, picked up the book, "Okay, class starts now."

……

Lilly felt a little strange, looking at the head teacher with an indescribable feeling.

She sat down and began class soon. The head teacher taught English, and Lilly had already started learning the language and grammar from Drake, so she understood what the teacher taught her very quickly.

Lilly secretly said in her heart: It seems that the elder brother taught her a little more interestingly, and the elder brother would also quote scriptures and tell her stories.

However, after thinking about it, it was normal. After all, her brothers and uncles also said that not every child like her could understand allusions now.

"Lilly!" The head teacher called out to her suddenly.

Lilly quickly regained consciousness and stood up, "Teacher!"

The head teacher looked displeased.

This student did not come to class for a semester, and it was said that she was studying at home.

She still did not pay attention to the lectures, why was she still distracted while in class?

It was hard to get the whole class together last semester, and she didn't want the new student to hold her back!

"Lilly, stand up and read the words on the blackboard!"

Lilly looked at the blackboard and read seriously, "Mountains, orchards, fields, green..."
