Chapter 235 Are you going?
Now that the situation has reversed, it is no longer the time for Lin Xiangxi to beg the school for admission.
Before the admission letter arrived home, Lin Xiangxi prayed to God in secret. After receiving the admission letter, Lin Xiangxi was still picky.
"It's not a school in Beijing, and it's not my favorite major." Lin Xiangxi said disdainfully: "I want to laugh when I think about someone like me becoming a math teacher in the future."
Speaking of this, Lin Xiangnan couldn't help but slap him on the back of the head again.
"How dare you say that. Helping my brother's friend choose a school is the same as helping you choose a school. How can that be the same?"
"Yes, yes, yes. It's my fault." Lin Xiangxi nodded and bowed.
He just wanted an acceptance letter to avoid being beaten, and he didn't have time to consider anything else.
Seeing his cowardly look, Lin Xiangnan was too embarrassed to criticize him too much, and said: "Although the three of us siblings can't be together, coastal cities will develop faster in the future and have more opportunities. Your school is not bad either."
The whole family ran to the north, only Lin Xiangxi went to the south alone.
But he is the youngest and most worrying one in the family.
Hu Meili could only console herself by saying, "It was not easy to get into the school. It doesn't matter whether it is in the south or the north. Your eldest brother went to the countryside when he was sixteen, and Xiaoxi is eighteen now. It's time for him to go out and try his luck on his own."
Anyway, the names of the three college students in the family were confirmed, so Hu Meili started to arrange a wedding banquet the next day.
"Your second uncle's New Year pig hasn't been slaughtered yet. I'll take the meat coupons and money and exchange it with your second uncle for a pig. We'll have a pig slaughtering banquet."
Thinking of the time he spent in the countryside, Lin Xiangnan couldn't help but comment: "The pigs at my second uncle's house are really disgusting. They deserve to be killed."
This banquet was organized by Hu Meili. She had a lot of private money, so she didn't let her three children worry about it at all.
It is also easy to entertain guests at home. We just need to borrow tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks. We invite Zhang Dapang from the restaurant to be the chef. In two days, the banquet is ready.
We have to be quick, the New Year is coming soon and everyone is busy during the first month of the year.
Hu Meili personally invited most of the family's relatives and friends, but she directly threw the hot potato of the Gu family to Lin Xiangnan.
"You go, mother-in-law."
"You go to your relative's house."
Lin Xiangnan said with a smile: "I'm just kidding. Neither of us will go. Let Gu Zhenhua go..."
Gu Zhenjun does not have much combat experience.
When it comes to dealing with the Gu family, Gu Zhenhua is still the most capable.
Their family has three college students, and their reputation has become well-known in the surrounding streets.
Of course, the Gu family also knew that Lin Xiangnan and his wife were back, but they knew that Lin Xiangnan and his wife were not easy to mess with, so they remained calm. However, Gu Chouni's heart couldn't help but feel itchy.
"I heard that in addition to the three from the Lin family, the sixth child was also admitted to university." Gu Chouni asked tentatively: "Why don't we call him back and treat him to a feast. Hu Meili has been very impressive these past two days."
She was almost dying of envy.
When Hu Meili's husband died and when she divorced him, she was the one who laughed at the joke behind their backs.
Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, all three children of the Lin family would have become successful, and Hu Meili's future would be visibly bright.
Now, who doesn’t praise Hu Meili for being smart, successful, and good at educating children?
Gu Chouni is usually looked down upon in this slum, and she wants to be like Hu Meili and vent her anger on her child.
"Old Six is hanging out with Gu Zhenhua and living at the Lin family. How could he possibly go home? And he's holding a wedding banquet. Does his family have enough money for that?"
Gu Zhenguo snorted and said, "If you really want to go find Lao Liu, tell me in advance so that I can go out and stay with you for a while. I can't afford to offend you, but I can afford to hide from you!"
In the past two years, Gu Zhenhua's family has been happy and people don't like to beat him as much, but if Gu Chouni causes trouble, she will definitely not be able to escape being beaten by him.
Gu Chouni looked at Gu Zhenguo and said expectantly: "My sons are all well-born, and you must be no bad either. You should also go and get a university for mom, so that others will envy you."
"Mom, what do you mean? I am the eldest son of the Gu family! The pillar of the family. Isn't it just a college student? What's so rare about it? What age am I? I still need to take the college entrance examination? Why don't you go..."
Gu Chouni is unreasonable, and Gu Zhenguo is also unreasonable. When the two of them face off, Gu Chouni is completely defeated.
As he was speaking, a familiar voice was heard in the yard.
"Everyone is at home. We came at the right time."
Gu Zhenhua walked in front and took the lead, while Lin Xiangnan and Gu Zhenjun stood behind him like cold bodyguards on the left and right.
"You guys are here, come in and sit down." Gu Zhenguo took a deep breath and surrendered nervously, "I was just teaching my mother a lesson, telling her not to cause you trouble unless necessary. It's not easy for you guys..."
"Brother, you have made a lot of progress in the past two years and have become better at speaking." Gu Zhenhua said as he flexed his wrist, making Gu Zhenguo break out in a cold sweat.
Gu Zhenjun said: "It was my sister-in-law who taught me well."
In the past, sister-in-law Xu Xiaodong was not able to gain any influence, and Gu Zhenguo was domineering at home. Since Xu Xiaodong's words became effective, Gu Zhenguo was immediately disciplined.
In the past two years, Gu Zhenguo has indeed not caused any trouble.
When Gu Zhenjun went to the family compound to help take care of the children, his household registration was still on the street, and Xu Xiaodong helped him collect and mail the food coupons.
They may not give face to other members of the Gu family, but they have to give face to Xu Xiaodong.
Receiving the inquiring looks from Lin Xiangnan and the other two, Xu Xiaodong patted the corners of his clothes and stood up calmly.
"The two girls are having so much fun outside that they don't even know how to go home. I'm going to go look for them."
Xu Xiaodong’s meaning was very clear: I’m leaving first, you guys can do whatever you want.
She didn't even say a word of advice.
As soon as Xu Xiaodong left, Lin Xiangnan and the other two laughed like villains.
“Ahhh!” Gu Zhenguo screamed, squatted down with his head in his hands, and begged for mercy, “Stop hitting me, stop hitting me…”
Gu Zhenguo was crying so hard that his tears and snot were coming out, and Gu Chouni was also pulling him and cursing at him.
"You two heartless beasts, that's your eldest brother... Hey, be gentle... You two bastards, I should have drowned you in a piss bucket when I was born..."
Seeing Gu Zhenhua and the others fighting, Lin Xiangnan stood aside with his arms folded, watching the fun calmly.
This time, the Gu family was very honest and did not cause trouble, but Gu Zhenhua and Gu Zhenjun still made this trip specially.
Even though the two brothers Gu Zhen and Hua Zhen have started working and earning money, and their lives are gradually becoming happier, they cannot let go of the pain brought by their childhood.
As Gu Chouni's scolding became more and more unpleasant, Gu Zhenhua remained calm, pretending to be casual, stepped on her foot, and then gave her a crutch...
After beating the man, Gu Zhenhua wiped his hands with a handkerchief and asked, "The Lin family has a happy event and they want to host a banquet. Mom asked me to invite you to dinner. Are you going?"
Gu Zhenguo's face was distorted. Who would dare to go if he was invited like this? What kind of meal was worth risking his life for?
