Chapter 353
This New Year is as warm as ever. Ling's mother and aunt have been busy for a year and are not jealous of the profits of the New Year's Eve dinner. Once the door is closed, they make up their minds to open the door after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.? ¤
After the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, the two families took their separate actions. Ling's parents and mother took Ling Xiaoxiao to the uncle's house in Ancheng. The uncle drove the borrowed car and took the family to the aunt Fengcheng's place.
Ling Xiaoxiao didn't want to go anywhere. Some time ago, she was absent-minded every day because of Jiang Zizhuo, which seriously dragged down her review progress. She wanted to wait until after the third and fourth grades of junior high school, she started chasing the progress at home.
However, Ling's parents were always afraid that their daughter would be dumbfounded by reading books, so they firmly disagree with her staying at home alone. Ling Xiaoxiao could only put her winter vacation homework in her bag, and was dragged by her parents onto the bus to Ancheng.
"Dabaoer, why do you still do the New Year's questions?" Ling's mother couldn't help frowning as she looked at Ling Xiaoxiao's test papers and reference books full of school bags.
Ling Xiaoxiao looked up at Ling's father who was queuing up to buy tickets in the distance, and then whispered: "The son-in-law you like is going to take the Q-year exam. Didn't you tell me to start early? I won't try harder and try to get into the exam? Otherwise, how can you catch the son-in-law you like?"
Ling Xiaoxiao's words were obviously a joke. As a result, Ling's mother took it seriously. Ling's mother grabbed Ling Xiaoxiao's hand and said nervously: "Are you saying that classmate Jiang wants to take the QU college entrance examination? That school is so good, you can't get into it even with your grades. What should I do?"
This sentence was so depressing! Ling Xiaoxiao glared at Ling's mother with dissatisfaction: "What does it mean that I can't get into the grade with my grades? My final grades are already very good, and they are all ranked in the top 50 in the grade list. You should know that there are 50 or 60 students who have been admitted to Q and B colleges every year in the Eighth Middle School."
"So, our Dabaoer is so good at studying now?" Ling's mother suddenly couldn't accept this fact. She has been busy doing business and making money in recent years, and she has never cared about her daughter's study. She has never had to worry about this daughter since she was in the third year of junior high school. She knew that her daughter had good grades, but she didn't know that she was so good!
That's Q-year-old, can your daughter get into the exam? Ling Ma's suspicious eyes swept Ling Xiaoxiao from top to bottom: "I said Dabaoer. You're not making me happy, are you really sure to get into the exam?"
Ling Xiaoxiao shook her head, who dared to be 100% sure of this? She is working so hard now to minimize accidents and risks.
"I have to look at the review situation next semester, so I said I didn't want to go to Ancheng. I disrupted my review plan." Ling Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to hold Ling Ma's arm and acted coquettishly.
Ling's mother was dizzy when she was shaken like this, and she felt that she had delayed her daughter's study. Looking at Ling's father who was buying a ticket not far away and was walking back, she said loudly: "Her dad, her daughter is nervous about studying, why don't we go to Ancheng?"
Dad Ling was a little confused by his wife's shout. He looked down at the ticket in his hand, and then looked at his wife's daughter in a daze: "Didn't you say you're afraid that your daughter will be stupid in studying and want to go out for a walk?"
Ling's mother was a little guilty when Ling's father said this, but when she thought of her daughter's lofty ambitions and her long-awaited son-in-law candidate, she still said toughly: "Didn't you know that our daughter is good at studying before? My daughter just told me, so I thought, why don't you delay your daughter reading?"
Ling's father was a little amused and crying. He had already talked to his younger brother and sister-in-law from Ancheng on the phone and told his two sisters that the family was waiting for them to go today. How could he not go and stop?
"I told my brothers and the others that it would be unsuitable if I didn't go. Chunhong and the others must have arranged our food and accommodation these days. If Dabaoer thinks it will delay his studies, we will stay for a few days and come back in the seventh and eighth day of the lunar month."
Dad Ling said that, and Mom Ling and Xiaoxiao knew it was not appropriate not to go. No one said anything. The two nodded at the same time and followed Dad Ling to queue up to wait for the bus.
Ling Xiaoxiao has been busy with school in the past two years, and Ling’s father and mother are busy making money. None of the three of them has ever come to Ancheng again. As soon as they leave the station, they are stopped by the young uncle who comes to pick up the station. The young uncle looks at Ling’s father and keeps muttering: “You are really good. Even though you know that my position is not easy to take a leave, it is inconvenient to go back once, so you don’t say it’s okay to come here to see us.”
Dad Ling giggled: "Your sister-in-law and I are very busy. She opened a hot pot restaurant and I bought a big truck. We can't make time."
When the young uncle heard Ling’s father say this, he looked upset with an unhappy face: “Didn’t your business be good before? Why did you make another stall? You are not afraid of getting tired of yourself.”
"Isn't this thinking of taking advantage of my health and slap in a few more years? Then I'll save some dowry for my Dabaoer. I heard from your sister-in-law that the food and food in the capital are expensive. Our Dabaoer will go to college in the second half of the year, so she will have to earn more living expenses, so she will save her being looked down upon by her classmates."
Ling’s father’s words were very simple, just like the most earnest thoughts in the hearts of all parents in this era. He just wanted to give his children everything they could to give. These words hit Ling Xiaoxiao’s heart word by word, making her follow her father, lowering her head and unable to help but blush her eyes.
While walking forward with his uncle, Ling's father and his uncle were talking about how business in the county town was easy to do in the past two years and how to make money by opening a restaurant and logistics. Ling's mother followed behind him and interjected from time to time.
What Ling’s father just said was what Ling’s mother thought. They only had a precious daughter like Ling Xiaoxiao. Everything they earned now is to be able to live a rich life with Ling Xiaoxiao, and they don’t have to work as hard as they were when they were young.
Moreover, Ling's mother was selfish because she had the reason to like Jiang Zizhuo as her son-in-law, and she also hoped that her family's conditions would be better and that she would save her daughter from being looked down upon.
The four of them took a taxi back to their uncle's house. The little aunt was cooking and cooking in the kitchen with her eldest aunt and second aunt. The eldest uncle and second aunt gathered together to watch TV and chat. Ling Fan, who was raised by Ling Xiaoxiao, was taking several younger brothers to play games in his room.
Ling Xiaoxiao looked at Ling Fan's thick and fat fingers, her chubby double chin and facial features that were squeezed by the fat on her face. She felt that her little aunt was really cruel. How could she do it!
She stood at the door of the room and tried hard to equate the sunny and handsome guy in her previous life with the boy like a meat ball in front of her. But it was too difficult for her to do so.
