Chapter 420 Chatting



"Ningxia and the capital are full of powerful people. I don't care about them. I believe that evildoers will be punished by heaven."

Zhang Yining knew what Ningxia was thinking. She didn’t want to make things difficult for her father, nor did she want to be sad for such a person.

If she can't get married, then she can't get married. There's more to life than just getting married. Anyway, she has godsons. She will treat them well and let them take care of her in her old age.

"Okay, let's not talk about this. Auntie said that you got into college but you don't want to go." Ningxia saw her like this and quickly changed the subject.

"It's not that I don't want to study, I just think it's a waste of time. My current monthly salary is 36 yuan. If I work at the newspaper for two years, I'm sure my salary will increase."

"If I go to school now, my salary as a teacher in a few years might not be as high as it is now, so why should I bother?"

Zhang Yining took the exam because Ningxia always asked her to study hard. It was not until the news of the college entrance examination came that she understood what Ningxia meant.

She didn't have a strong desire to go to college, but she still listened to her parents and took the exam because she knew her results.

If I hadn’t kept my textbooks for the past two years, I probably wouldn’t have been able to do even half of it, let alone college.

"Then how long do you think you can work at the newspaper? Now that the college entrance examination has been resumed, there will be more and more college graduates. Will the newspaper want someone with a higher education or just a high school graduate?"

"I always say that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. You can't just focus on the present. Once you have a higher level of education, you will have the confidence to succeed even if you don't want to be a teacher in the future."

What Ningxia did not explain is that the job of newspaper clerk seems to be okay now, but it will be abolished soon.

After the development of mobile phones, who would still publish advertisements in newspapers or send telegrams? Later, newspapers were used to write articles.

Zhang Yining doesn't have enough education and her writing skills are not good enough, so she can't stay there.

"Then... so you mean I still have to go to school?" Zhang Yining was still the kind of person who listened to advice.

"Yes, the most important thing is to improve my academic qualifications, so that no matter what I do in the future, I will have the confidence." Ningxia spoke frankly, saying that being a teacher is actually pretty good.

Nowadays, college graduates are guaranteed jobs. In the future, many people will be scrambling to get a job.

But she couldn't eat that bowl of rice, she didn't have the patience.

"Okay, then I'll go to study. Ningxia, which university did you get into?" Zhang Yining felt that what Ningxia said made sense. Anyway, her family was not short of money, so she might as well go there and have fun for a few years.

She felt that she could pass the exam, and Ningxia was much smarter than her and would definitely do better.

"I applied to the Film Academy." Ningxia raised her eyebrows when she saw how confident she was.

"Film Academy? A place that shows movies?" Zhang Yining was stunned. Actors and stars are really too far away nowadays, and no one knows about them at all.

Ningxia thought of the Hong Kong stars who were popular all over the country in the 1980s, and their songs that are still familiar to later generations.

When it becomes popular, the film academy will be the dream place for many people.

"No, it's a place for performances. You'll know later." Ningxia didn't explain much.

"By the way, are you still in touch with Cai Xiaoya?" Zhang Yining didn't ask any more questions and talked about something else.

"We haven't been in touch much." It's not that she didn't contact her. She wrote letters to Cai Xiaoya, but she basically never replied. Later, she gradually stopped writing.

"Me too. We were in touch at first, but after she started saying some sarcastic things, I stopped wanting to contact her anymore." Zhang Yining also felt that Cai Xiaoya had changed. She even sent her a gift after she knew she was getting married.

Not only did I not hear her say any words of thanks, but she also said that she gave her a pair of new shoes when Ningxia got married last time. Why did she just throw it away so casually?

Zhang Yining was also unhappy, but later, thinking about what she and Cai Xiaoya had experienced, she sent her a gift money as a subsidy.

Unexpectedly, it never stopped. He asked her for money for various reasons. Zhang Yining is not a fool, and she doesn't want to continue to associate with such a person.

Gradually, the call was cut off, and Ningxia didn't know what to say after hearing what Zhang Yining said.

Cai Xiaoya didn't tell her these things, maybe because she thought she was not easy to deceive. The trivial things in life can completely change a person.

Since Zhang Yining no longer had any benefits, Cai Xiaoya stopped contacting her.

The two chatted about what had happened in the past few years. After Zhang's mother cooked the meal, Ningxia took the two little ones to have lunch at Zhang's house.

Although the two little ones had never met their godmother, they could tell that she truly loved them.

The coaxing words were as free as can be. Zhang Yining laughed out loud because of the laughter, even though Ningxia and her husband were obviously not talkative.

Why are the two children so sweet? She almost wants to keep them at home.

"Godmother, we will come to see you again. If you miss us, you can come to our house." Shen Erbao is a smart boy. He is afraid that their heartless mother will really abandon them.

If their mother had abandoned them, their father would not have come to find them. It is better to rely on oneself than on others, so Shen Erbao decided to take the initiative.

Ningxia looked at Shen Erbao without saying anything. This showed his intelligence. He didn't want to stay here, but what he said was impeccable.

"Okay, I'll come find you after godmother has rested." Zhang Yining didn't feel anything was wrong at all, and she also forgot that she wanted to keep the person just now.

Since she has decided to go to college, she must go to hand over her work, and when she is done, she will go to find Ningxia.

When Ningxia came out of the alley, those people came over to ask her openly or secretly if she would live there in the future.

"I'm here to see someone. I don't live here." Ningxia felt that these people were looking at her strangely.

How could she have imagined that her appearance was too conspicuous.

The situation here is already chaotic enough, and if someone with this appearance comes, there will be no peace.

When they heard that she would not live here in the future, those people were relieved, but they still looked at Ningxia with suspicion.

Ningxia ignored them and walked back with her two children. She still had a lot of things to do.

She planned to visit her school first, as their house had not been decided yet. Ningxia also wanted to find an opportunity to go to Shanghai. She wanted to take advantage of this rare opportunity to buy a few houses.

Now that the college entrance examination has been relaxed, most of the educated youth have not returned to the city, except for those with some social status.

When the later policies are implemented, all educated youth will be able to return to the city, and housing will become even more scarce.

The current property management is also very chaotic. Many properties have no certificates at all. In addition, many of those who escaped during the turbulent period have now been rehabilitated and their houses have been confiscated.

Even if she had money, she was afraid of buying a house that had no property rights and could not be traversed, which would cause trouble later.

Ningxia thought about these things and felt that no matter what, she still had to go to Shanghai.
