"The eldest and second sons are both in our hometown. What if the two of us live with the girl? Won't the eldest and second sons be talked about?" Father Zhou was more worried about this.
In their village, sons are the ones who take care of the elderly in their old age. How can one take care of a married girl in her old age?
Although he himself was very curious about what Beijing was like and wanted to go and see it, Zhou's father thought more about it.
When Zhou's mother heard this, she thought it made sense. They couldn't just think about themselves.
And if the old couple goes there, the expenses for their daughter will definitely be higher.
"Okay, old man, let's not go there for now." said Zhou's mother.
It was soon time for the college entrance exam. Before entering the examination room, Zhou Suisui told his two sons, "Don't be nervous. Just do your best."
The eldest child said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Mom. We are not mentally strong enough to be nervous."
I just don't care about them when they are one year old.
When Zhou Suisui came out of the exam at noon, he saw the eldest and second children waiting for him at the door.
"Why are you guys out so early? How did you do on the test paper?"
"Mom, you're amazing. A lot of this is what you've taught me before. It's pretty much the same, no problem at all."
"Where's Erwa?"
"I don't have any problems either." Erwa said, and he was no longer worried about his age.
She was also very happy when she got the test paper. There was basically no question on the whole test paper that she didn't know how to answer. Zhou Suisui guessed that both sons should be able to answer it as well.
It can be said that I was the one who personally took care of the studies of my eldest and second child since they were young, and I know very well what their academic level is.
After two days of exams, the stressful college entrance examination finally ended.
During these two days, Zhou Suisui saw many candidates crying in the examination room while answering questions, and some even fainted.
But none of these can disturb Zhou Suisui's mentality, and she remains very stable.
After the exam, you have to fill in your application. Now, you fill in your application first and then the scores are released. In fact, this is not reasonable, but this is the current situation.
Zhou Sui Sui filled out the application for Peking University without any pressure. The eldest and second children looked at Zhou Sui Sui's application and said in surprise, "Mom, have you decided what major you want to study? Isn't the score for Peking University a bit too high?"
"Not high, I should be able to pass the exam. I want to study finance."
To put it bluntly, Zhou Suisui just wants to make money, and studying this major will make it easier for her to do so.
As for the language major, she didn't even consider it because she didn't need to study it. This was what she had been doing for years.
As for her current translation work, Zhou Suisui has stopped doing it. She doesn't need to make money from it anymore, so she quit her job at the newspaper.
As for the eldest and second oldest children, the eldest, like Zhou Suisui, applied to the University of Peking, but his major was physics. The eldest is very good at science and he likes it. He wants to continue studying in this area in the future.
But Erwa did not apply to Peking University, but to Beijing Medical University. Erwa wanted to be a doctor in the future.
Zhou Suisui has no opinion on the two children's choices and will not disagree.
It's a pity for Gu Jingheng that neither of his two sons has the idea of inheriting his mantle.
Zhou Suisui comforted him: "The children have grown up, and everyone has their own ideas. They have to walk their own path in life. We as parents cannot make decisions for them."
"Don't worry, wife. I understand."
"And Gu Jingheng, you don't know, but I'm actually very happy that none of them chose to join the army." Zhou Suisui said.
Gu Jingheng asked puzzledly: "Why?"
"Because the military profession, although sacred, is too dangerous. You don't know how worried I was every time you went on a mission before."
"In the future, my two children will have to start their own families and careers. I know how hard it is to be a military wife, and I don't want my future daughter-in-law to go through the same. Whether they are doctors or scientists, I support them."
After Zhou Suisui finished speaking, Gu Jingheng didn't say anything else, but held her in his arms.
Zhou Suisui knew that Gu Jingheng must be feeling upset again. This man had always felt guilty towards her. In the first few years of their marriage, Gu Jingheng had not taken care of the family or children at all except for money.
But Zhou Suisui also had to say this. She didn't want Gu Jingheng to interfere with the children's choices. Even after the third child was born, Zhou Suisui hoped that their lives would be free.
Zhou Suisui doesn't want to use the name of love to kidnap their future life choices.
After the exam, Zhou Suisui completely relaxed. He went to the store and then to the factory every day. There was nothing else to do.
However, Xiaoya has completely adapted to life in Beijing and is performing very well at work.
Many repeat customers in the store praised Xiaoya for her good work and service, which made Xiaoya very happy.
That day, Xiaoya said to Zhou Suisui, "Aunt San, I want to change my name."
"Why do you suddenly want to change your name?" Zhou Suisui asked.
"Because the name Xiaoya is too common, there are several girls named Xiaoya in our village. I want to change to a nice name, like the nice names of my brothers Mingzhe and Minglin." Xiaoya said softly.
"I can't make the decision on this. So, you can write a letter and ask your parents. If they agree, it will be fine."
"Okay, then I'll write a letter to my parents. Aunt San, can you help me think of a nice name?" This is what Xiao Ya wanted.
Neither she nor her parents have much education and can't think of any nice names.
Gu's father and mother heard this and said, "Old Third, you are educated, so you can help Xiaoya come up with a name, and then have her write a letter back to the eldest brother and ask if they agree."
When Zhou Suisui heard what Gu's father and mother said, she thought about it seriously.
"How about this, Xiaoya, your name from now on can be Xiaoya, Gu Xiaoya. Ya means elegant and unpretentious, and Xiao means dawn. This character is very suitable for little girls, and it is also pronounced similarly to your old name. What do you think?"
"Xiao Ya? Gu Xiao Ya? Third Aunt, this name is so nice, I like it very much!" Xiao Ya said happily.
"I'm going to write a letter to my parents now." The little girl turned around and ran into the house.
"Mom, let's eat cold noodles today, okay?"
Mother Gu smiled and said, "Okay, anything is fine."
Now that the weather is getting hotter, Zhou Sui Sui doesn’t like to cook anymore. Now at home, sometimes Zhou Sui Sui cooks, and sometimes it’s her mother Gu who cooks. It’s not certain. When Zhou Sui Sui is busy, her mother will cook.
Zhou Suisui was worried that his mother would be tired, but his mother didn't mind.
It’s just cooking a meal, which is so easy compared to working at home. She doesn’t have anything to do all day anyway.
