Island parenting/Anti-trope/Children influencing stepmother.
Social animal Ning Tang transmigrated into a 70s island stepmother novel as the contrasting character. The female protagonist was ...
Shen Lie breathed a sigh of relief when he found out there was no cursing. He returned home and said, "The letter has been delivered."
Ning Tang nodded. "Ning Xue really wants to go to Shanghai?"
Chen Lie: "Go ahead. Su Guangzong has such a big thing going on. She has to go and see him."
If Su Junyan couldn't leave, he would have gone with them.
Ning Tang asked again, "Summer vacation is almost here. Can she catch him now? What if she goes the wrong way?"
Chen Lie thought about this possibility and said hesitantly, "That shouldn't be the case, right? Su Guangzong didn't go home during the Spring Festival this year, and he might not come back during the summer vacation."
Ning Xue packed her luggage that day and left almost immediately after Li Gou. She arrived in Shanghai exhausted. The first thing she did upon arrival was to visit Su Guangzong's school.
Firstly, I wanted to see if Su Guangzong was in school, and secondly, I wanted to ask more about the expulsion penalty.
Ning Xue asked around and found out that Su Guangzong was not in school. The news of his dropping out was a hot topic, and almost everyone knew that a freshman in clinical medicine at Fudan University was expelled in his second semester of freshman year.
She went to the school's Academic Affairs Office to ask the school leaders, and they confirmed that she would be expelled. There was no turning back. The school leaders said that since the school was founded, they had never seen a student absent from class for such a long time, and that the student must be severely punished to serve as a warning to others.
Ning Xue stumbled out of the school, looking at the gray sky and the hustle and bustle of traffic. Shanghai is so big, where should she go to find Su Guangzong?
She first thought of Su Yaozu, but when she went to Su Yaozu's school to ask, he was not in school. When she asked when he would come back, Su Yaozu's classmates said that they hadn't seen Su Yaozu for several days. He had always been elusive and no one knew when he would come back.
Ning Xue couldn't keep waiting. What if she didn't get to wait for him? Su Guangzong had no money and was not in school. She didn't know where he would be suffering.
Suddenly, she had a good idea.
After asking around, I finally found the Shanghai Lixin University of Accounting where Dawa was studying.
When Ning Xue arrived, Da Wa and Da Hu were sorting the newly purchased clothes in the dormitory.
Their stall business was growing bigger and bigger, and there was no longer enough space under the bed in the dormitory. They were discussing whether to rent a small yard or a small warehouse. They felt a little embarrassed about taking up space in the dormitory. Although they often treated their roommates to dinner, they also felt a little embarrassed.
Just as they were discussing, they heard a voice from the door, "Big Boy!"
The eldest child was squatting on the ground folding clothes when he heard the sound. He thought it sounded very familiar and turned around in confusion. "Auntie, why are you here?"
Ning Xue pursed her lips and said bluntly, "I have something to talk to you about?"
Da Wa's roommate looked at Ning Xue, then looked at Da Wa, and asked, "Dawa, are you a relative?"
Look? This expression doesn't look like it. Aren't relatives always very warm and polite when they come to visit? Why does this woman look like she's coming to collect a debt?
"Yeah." Da Wa responded, "What do you want to talk to me about, auntie?"
Ning Xue glanced at Da Wa's roommate, who wisely avoided her and left. Only Ning Xue, Da Wa and Da Hu were left in the dormitory.
Ning Xue looked embarrassed and explained the whole story.
It's not that she doesn't want to save face, it's just that this matter can't be concealed at all. The news of Li Gou coming to the military family compound has caused such a big fuss that it will probably spread throughout the entire compound in a few days. Da Wa and Da Hu will know about it sooner or later.
What's more, at this critical juncture, finding Su Guangzong is the most important thing. In the whole Shanghai market, she only knows a few people including Da Wa. If not them, who else can she ask for help?
Da Wa and his friends were the first ones to see Su Guangzong going to the game hall. With their help, the success rate of finding Su Guangzong would definitely be greatly increased.
Da Hu was surprised after hearing this. "Aunt Ning, you said that Su Guangzong's creditors have all come to your house?"
Ning Xue frowned and said, "He's not the real creditor, just a henchman responsible for collecting the money." She added, "That's not important. What's important is to find Guangzong as soon as possible."
Da Wa nodded. "We understand. Don't worry, Auntie. We will definitely help you find Su Guangzong. You just arrived in Shanghai, right? So, I'll take you to the guesthouse to wash up and have a meal. Once we're done, you'll have the energy to look for him."
Ning Xue glared at him and said, "How can I be in the mood to wash up and eat right now? Stop talking nonsense and take me to find Guangzong."
Big Baby choked.
He made this suggestion because he saw Ning Xue looked so exhausted that she could barely stand. Her lips were dry and flaky, as if she hadn't had any water in a long time. Since Ning Xue didn't appreciate it, there was nothing Big Boy could do. He put away his clothes and prepared to tidy them up when he got back. "Okay, Auntie, we'll go with you to find Su Guangzong right away."
Ning Xue was just anxious for a moment, but after calming down, she felt a little embarrassed.
To be fair, considering the relationship between the Su and Chen families, and the fact that she looked down on Da Wa and the other three, Da Wa was already doing his best to help her. If it were her, it would be good enough if she didn't add insult to injury and just laughed at him. She might even help her find someone.
Ning Xue hesitated, but with her personality, she couldn't offer an apology. She simply urged, "Let's get going quickly. I'll treat you to dinner when we get back."
Da Wa didn't care about this meal at all. As he and Ning Xue left the school, he said, "Aunt, do you know where Su Guangzong often goes? Can we try to look for him there and see if he's there?"
Ning Xue's 'old habit' came back, and she glared at him, "If I had known, would I still have come to you?"
Da Hu knew that Ning Xue often made disparaging remarks about Da Wa and the others on the island. He felt very sorry for Da Wa and immediately turned cold. "Aunt Ning, if that's the case, go find Su Guangzong yourself and don't bother us anymore."
I had originally planned to set up a stall today, but Ning Xue's arrival has ruined the plan. One day's delay means hundreds or even thousands of dollars in lost business.
Ning Xue didn't even know what they had done to find Su Guangzong? And yet she was still yelling at him. To put it bluntly, she really didn't know what was good for her.
Ning Xue also... Just like that, when she saw the dissatisfaction on Da Wa and Da Hu's faces, she backed off and chuckled. "Just pretend I didn't say anything, just pretend I didn't say anything. Do you two know where he often goes? Bookstore, coffee shop, department store?"
Da Wa and Da Hu had no idea where to go. The number of times they had run into Su Guangzong in Shanghai could be counted on one hand.
Da Wa thought for a moment and said slowly, "Since he loves playing video games so much, I think we can go to the game hall near their school and look for him. Maybe he's there."
As soon as the words fell, Ning Xue wanted to refute, but after opening her mouth several times, she couldn't utter a word of rebuttal. She lowered her head and replied with a lifeless face, "Hmm..."
They didn't know how long it would take to walk, so Da Wa simply hired a turtle car and asked the owner to take them to find an arcade near Su Guangzong School.
Ning Xue should have paid for the chartered car, but she had no money left, so Da Wa paid for it. Ning Xue even borrowed money from Li Yun for the train ride to Shanghai.
The train ticket was only a few dozen yuan, and Li Yun returned it with a reluctant look on her face. It was obvious that if she had been asked to borrow the more than 400 yuan, she would definitely not have lent it to her.
Ning Xue held the water that Da Wa bought for her and drank it absentmindedly.
From childhood to adulthood, as long as the twins have new clothes, Liu Xiaoliu will definitely have one too.
She couldn't remember how many days and nights she had endured making clothes for Liu Xiaoliu. She was so kind to Li Yun's son, but in the end, Li Yun repaid her like this.
Even though she was sitting in the turtle car, surrounded by airtight and very hot, Ning Xue couldn't help feeling cold in her heart.
The car circled more than ten streets but still couldn't find Su Guangzong. There was only one game hall left. Da Wa said, "Aunt, this is the last game hall around here. It's getting late. It's not safe for you to be out there alone. Da Hu and I will take you to dinner later, and then we'll take you to the guesthouse so you can rest for the night."
It's not a good idea to keep looking like this. We have to go find Ning Jun. He's from the Public Security Bureau and he knows how to find people.
But Su Guangzong is an adult after all, and he is not really missing. If we report it to the police, it would be too serious.
Da Wa thought that if he still couldn’t find him after searching for two more days, he would really have to go find Ning Jun.
Ning Xue pursed her lips and nodded.
Even though he still has many minor opinions about Da Wa, he has to admit that this kid handles things very appropriately, which... Guangzong and Yaozu cannot compare to.
She said, "Well, if we still can't find Guangzong in this arcade, I'll go eat with you two, and then go to the guesthouse to rest." She added, "But you two must remember to come find me tomorrow, and we'll go look for Guangzong."
Da Wa and Da Hu looked at each other.
Da Hu curled his lips. When Ning Xue agreed just now, he thought Aunt Ning was a person who listened to advice. He didn't expect that she would actually ask them to go find her tomorrow and then look for Su Guangzong.
Excuse me, don’t they have their own affairs to do?
Tomorrow is Monday, and we have classes, and the final exam is coming soon. Aren't they going to review?
Of course, even if Ning Xue said this, she would not change her mind. She would only stick to her own opinion and think that the whole world revolves around her, and that Da Wa and Da Hu should accompany her to find Su Guangzong.
Want to ask why?
They all came from Hailang Island, and Da Wa was related to her. Who else could we help if not her?
After getting off the turtle car, Ning Xue walked in front, and Dawa and Dahu walked behind.
The two of them were whispering to each other, and the eldest child said, "I remember you have an exam the day after tomorrow. Don't come tomorrow. I can accompany my cousin alone."
Da Hu said, "That won't do. How can I bear to see you alone with her? At worst, I can stay up late to review for the next two nights and take some time to sleep during the day. Okay, that's it."
Da Wa wanted to persuade Da Hu again, but Ning Xue suddenly called out, "What are you two doing behind? Hurry up and catch up."
The two looked at each other, trotted forward, and the three of them entered the game room.
Even though it wasn't her first time in the arcade, Ning Xue was still dazed by the foul smell. She looked around for someone and said, "This place stinks too much! How can anyone stay here?"
A shirtless man with a shaved head heard this, glanced at Ning Xue, and said bluntly, "What's the matter? I'm not a human being, do you want me to? If you don't want to stay here, then get out. I've spoiled you."
Ning Xue glared and wanted to say something, but Da Wa and Da Hu quickly pulled her away.
It is not wise to get into a conflict with this bald man. Da Wa and Da Hu are not too afraid of him alone, but the people sitting in that circle are obviously people the bald man knows. If something happens to the bald man, they will definitely take action. Then things will get out of hand.
Ning Xue glared at the bald man's fat back twice before she breathed a sigh of relief. The most urgent thing now is to find Guangzong. She will settle with you after she finds him!
The three continued to look for someone.
After walking around the bald man and a few more steps, Ning Xue suddenly saw a familiar figure. She squinted her eyes and looked closely. The silhouette of the person sitting in front of the game console looked very much like Su Guangzong.
But the man had an untidy beard and hair long enough to be tied into a small braid. He looked sloppy and did not look like the shy and well-behaved son in her memory.
She called out tentatively, "...Guangzong?"
This sound seemed to come from a very far away place, and it sounded so familiar, evoking the deepest memories in his heart. Su Guangzong's whole body trembled violently.
