Because of a word from his son, Chen Weiguo and Tao Xiuying didn't even close their eyes for a long time.

Moving is not a simple matter. When you go to the city, you can eat and drink whatever you want, what to do with the houses and land in the village, and the household registration problem. It is easy to deal with the third and fourth brothers. If you want to send Xiaowu to the city to study, it will definitely be difficult.

Tao Xiuying married into the Chen family for more than 20 years. She bought a car just before the New Year and followed Chen Weiguo to the city. After so many years, in addition to returning to her parents' home, the farthest thing was to go to her sister-in-law's house in the neighboring town.

Tao Xiuying actually has ideas about living in the city, but it is not now.

If the son is promising, the women or sisters-in-law in the village will make some jokes, such as following his son to the city to enjoy happiness in the future, taking care of his grandson, etc.

Although Tao Xiuying didn't agree with it, she must have some ideas in her heart. Raising children to prevent old age is a deep-rooted idea in the countryside, but with her temperament, she will never say it out loud.

Chen Weiguo was also a little irritable. His son was promising. Logically, he should be happy, but when he heard about entering the city, he felt very uncomfortable.

More than 20 years ago, Chen Weiguo thought about entering the city.

But at that time, I was more worried that my brother-in-law would leave after taking the exam, and Mr. Zhang, who was classified as the fifth category of black, was rehabilitated, and he also left with his brother-in-law, leaving only his daughter. Later, Zhang Ziyu and his children also left.

Chen Weiguo had hated the Zhang family before. After so many years, he had become weak. He put himself in his shoes and thought about it. If the whole family left and left Xiaowu alone in the countryside, he would not be able to agree no matter what.

The couple tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Tao Xiuying heard her husband sigh and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, I'm just a little worried about Xiaowu going to school."

Both of them came from the planned economy. Even if the household registration was contracted, the household registration of commercial grain was still superior. They did not understand any new situations and policies, but the household registration book clearly stated that the agricultural household registration was, and it was probably not that simple to go to the city to go to school.

Tao Xiuying was also full of anger, "You are not what you are meant to me. When will the third and fourth brothers worry about us? I even save the tuition fee in high school. I look at Xiaowu again. I am like a monster all day long, but I just don't need to study hard. What can I do if I continue like this?"

Chen Weiguo was silent for a while, "I have to send Xiaowu to the city to study. The quality of teaching in the city is definitely better than that in the town."

Obviously, he made up his mind.

Tao Xiuying hesitated a little, "If you think it through, I'm afraid you'll have to spend a lot of money."

"I have accepted it even if I spend money. I can't have many older people left the exam. Just Xiaowu stayed, right?"

Tao Xiuying sighed, her children were debts, and she finally realized it.

After thinking about it, she breathed a sigh of relief again, and finally her son was successful, otherwise the couple would not dare to think about entering the city.

"Tell me, how much money did the second child earn?" Tao Xiuying asked inadvertently, and it was at this time that she had the heart to consider these things.

"I don't know, but it seems that he didn't tell the truth. You are not unclear. Since last year, he has become a different person."

The Chen family men are a little dull, but this does not mean that they are stupid. They are naturally clear about their own sons, but the father and son lack effective communication.

Tao Xiuying didn't think so much, "I should have made a lot of money. He said he had tens of thousands of dollars on the third and fourth brothers' watches, and probably was scaring the fourth brothers. But one or two thousand must be what he wanted."

"It looks pretty good." Chen Weiguo responded, "Tomorrow you talk about him. There is no need to do such expensive things. If I were to do it, I would definitely not be willing to buy them."

The first half of the sentence is fine, but when he heard the second half, Tao Xiuying suddenly became angry and sat up from the bed, "Chen Weiguo, you have to speak with conscience. Don't you know whether you can bear to leave?"

Chen Weiguo was a little puzzled, "What's wrong? I didn't say anything?"

Seeing her man like this, Tao Xiuying was inexplicably uncomfortable, and she kicked Chen Weiguo hatefully.

"hiss!"

This time, I didn't keep my strength and just kicked Chen Weiguo's calf. He trembled with pain, "What's wrong? I'm not messing with you again. If you are angry, please say at least?"

"Chen Weiguo, you think I'm stupid, right?" Tao Xiuying became more and more angry as she spoke, and her tone became higher.

"Wear the things hidden in the compartment under the drawer of the wardrobe, do you think I don't know? I'm too lazy to bother with you, and I can't bear to buy them. Are you cheating?"

Chen Weiguo was shocked, and he immediately remembered that he had indeed bought a watch, but the price was not cheap.

When he got married to Zhang Ziyu, in order to support his family, he raised some money and bought an old Shanghai female watch for Zhang Ziyu with great value. Later, he divorced, except for a divorce certificate, the only thing left was the watch.

Chen Weiguo was a little guilty. When he remarried, life was even more difficult. He hid the bill and the divorce certificate. He hadn't mentioned it for so many years. Unexpectedly, it was revealed tonight.

He was also a little strange, hiding it secretly, and he forgot it to the back of his mind, why was he discovered? He smiled and said, "What happened many years ago, why are you still mentioning those things?"

Tao Xiuying is a little boring. The little things happened to her man back then are no secret. After so many years, it is really meaningless to think about it.

Chen Weiguo couldn't help but ask, "I hid it well, how did you know?"

Tao Xiuying didn't have a good voice, and said, "What's the matter? Want to find the back account? Don't ask me, ask the debt collectors in our family. Is there a needle and thread that can hide from them?"

No matter who it is, there is a stage of being naughty. The four children of the Chen family all have a stage of being naughty. Sometimes Tao Xiuying thinks about it and is a little scared. She doesn't know how she survived so many years.

When he was poor, he didn't feel that life was difficult. Seeing that life had hope, Tao Xiuying felt a little wronged. Taking this opportunity, she couldn't help but say a few words to her husband.

Chen Weiguo knew that he was in the wrong, but he just didn't say anything and was careful to deal with it.

Suddenly, the door sounded softly.

Both of them were shocked. They had been married for decades, and they had not blushed in front of their children.

Tao Xiuying asked, "What time is it now, why haven't you been asleep yet?"

"It's me, I'm thirsty, get up and drink water."

Chen Xi's voice came from the door, and she paused, and she asked again: "Mom, have you quarreled with dad?"

"No." Tao Xiuying quickly denied it and reminded him: "There is herbal tea on the table, don't drink too much, and turn off the electric fan before going to bed and don't blow it all night."

"Oh!" Chen Xi responded, and she was very confused. She clearly heard the quarrel between her parents, and she had no choice but to turn around and ask her second brother what she meant.

...

The next day, Chen Qiaoshan slept until midnight. After washing up and preparing to have a meal, he accidentally saw Chen Weiguo still at home.

Chen Qiaoshan was a little surprised, "Dad, didn't you say yesterday that you would send a water pump and a water pipe in the morning? It's past nine o'clock, why haven't you left yet?"

Chen Wei National Highway: "Stay on a day today."

Chen Qiaoshan was very surprised. This was not like Chen Weiguo's style. He asked, "I'm idle today. Why don't you give me the address and I'll help you with a trip?"

"No, I've contacted you all, I'll go tomorrow."

Chen Qiaoshan didn't insist anymore. Soon, Chen Xi brought a bowl of crumb porridge and a plate of pickles to deliver it. He couldn't help but be surprised, "It's a good thing to cook porridge."

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Mom knows you like it, so I made it specially today."

The Chen family has always been mainly pasta, and it was rare to eat rice again before.

However, Tao Xiuying is an authentic Hubei Province native and is not used to pasta. Last year, Chen Qiaoshan specially brought back a bag of rice. Since then, Chen Weiguo has also brought some back from time to time.

Xiao Wu interrupted, "Mom is just biased. I know you like to drink porridge, but I also like to eat crumbs, so I didn't leave any of it!"

"You still have any opinions. I'll only come back for half a year. Have you eaten less?"

After finishing breakfast with a chat and laughing, there was no sign of Chen's mother. Chen Qiaoshan asked, "Where are our mothers, where have we been?"

Chen Xi was busy cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks on the table and said, "Li Laowu in Xiawan usually puts a cage, and his mother said she would go buy some eels and come back."

Xiaowu rushed to say, "Second brother, my mother killed an old hen in the morning and said she would make up for you."

Chen Qiaoshan shook his head, and he would never have the heart to be a mother.

Chen Weiguo asked: "Aren't you going to take Xiaowu and the others to Yanjing for a few days? When will you go?"

Hearing this, the three Chen sisters stared at Chen Qiaoshan. Not only Xiaowu, but Chen Xi and Chen Wan were also looking forward to it. As old as they grow, the three sisters' understanding of the outside world is only in their concept. They must have expectations for this trip, especially the destination is Yanjing.

When Chen Xi and Chen Wan were excited when they thought of going to Peking University in advance, they were so excited that as for Xiao Wu, it didn't matter where they went. Even if they just went to the city, they would make her happy for a long time.

"Just these two days."

Chen Qiaoshan has no time to stay at home for more time. He has to go to discuss the first batch of projects selected by Qingshan Capital in person, and Green Alliance Technology has to accelerate. There is also Qingshan Forum. The negotiating team that Elliot asked will arrive in Yanjing tomorrow. Even if he cannot come forward, what he should explain must be made clear in person.

"So fast?" Chen Weiguo was a little surprised. He wanted to discuss with his son about sending Xiaowu into the city to study. School was about to start and things could not be delayed.

"No, no, no, I've been waiting for it for a long time. Second brother, we can leave tomorrow. I've chosen all the clothes to change."

Xiao Wu, this unlucky child, made both men in the Chen family look dark.

Chen Weiguo looked down with a rare look, "Xiao Wu, I will be in junior high school next semester. Learn more from your third and fourth sisters so that you can have a future."

Xiao Wu is used to being able to look at people's faces. Seeing Chen Weiguo's serious look, she had to respond unwillingly.

Chen Qiaoshan didn't have much confidence. This girl was different from the third and fourth brothers. If she wanted to change her temperament, she would not have much hope.

He had already made plans. At most, he had three years of junior high school. If Xiaowu's grades had not improved, he would put this girl in Hong Kong.

Today, the four-year high school program in Hong Kong has only three years of university, which gives Xiaowu enough time to adapt. After she graduated from high school, the special recruitment of mainland universities for Hong Kong has also begun. It would be much easier to find a way. As for studying abroad, it is not in his plan at all.
