Chu Yue had no idea that the decision he made not only did not win praise from his wife, but he was scolded by her instead.
Yang Liu actually did it for his own sake, but because of her intense reaction, Chu Yue once thought that his wife loved him terribly, which was why he didn't want to waste another year here.
Then he hugged his wife and showered her with love, which annoyed Yang Liu to death.
The next day, she rubbed her aching waist and sighed to the sky. She swore that she persuaded Chu Yue to take the college entrance examination this year just for her own sake.
Li Qiuhe noticed that her daughter looked listless when she woke up in the morning and thought that she was just like herself. She was worried that Chu Yue would abandon the three of them and run away after the college entrance examination.
She cooked corn porridge and steamed egg custard in the morning. After feeding the two children, she put them in the car and let them play by themselves.
Only then did he take the time to come and talk to his daughter.
"Liu'er, Mom knows you're sad, but you can't not eat, right?"
Seeing Yang Liu fiddling with the corn porridge in the bowl and looking like she had no appetite, Li Qiuhuo thought she was so worried that she couldn't sleep or eat.
She raised her head, looking puzzled: "Mom, what are you talking about?"
Why is she sad for no reason?
She is not Lin Daiyu.
"I know everything. Now that the college entrance examination has been reinstated, educated youth from the city like Chu Yue have to take it so they can go back. He will definitely not come back after he leaves, leaving you three behind."
As she spoke, Li Qiuhuo began to wipe her tears with her sleeves.
Yang Liu finally understood the situation and patted her on the back, comforting her, "Mom, you're really worrying too much. He's going to take the college entrance exam, but even if he leaves, we'll leave together as a family."
If he dared to abandon the three of them and leave, she would find a stepfather for his son right after he left and make him regret it.
"Liu'er, please stop comforting us. Life in the city isn't that easy. Even if our circumstances in the countryside are tough, we can still fill our stomachs. But in the city, we'll be left with nothing."
It's really difficult to get around in a big city where you are unfamiliar with the place.
Yang Liu knew that her mother was conservative, but she never thought it would go to this extent.
"Mom, the last time Chu Yue returned to Shanghai was to look for a house. Don't worry, we'll have a place to stay when we get there. Besides, your daughter is very capable and can make a living anywhere."
If her parents were the only ones at home, they could take them over directly when they leave next year, but now Yang Bai is there, so they can only wait until they are settled there first before considering taking them over.
Although Yang Liu spoke with full confidence, Li Qiuhe was still worried.
Knowing her mother's personality, Yang Liu didn't say anything. She would let them see the man's sincerity when the time came.
Zhang Hongwei is really regretting it now. He racked his brains to get a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University and even did something shameful.
But the college entrance examination was resumed immediately.
Eating shit is not as good as eating a hot mouthful.
Moreover, with his ability, he could definitely get into a good school by taking the college entrance examination, instead of staying in this tiny place.
But he couldn't drop out of school openly, so he pretended to be sick when he went home this time and asked for leave from the school.
He went home this time just to ask his father-in-law to help him find a solution.
The whole family worked together to get him this place. Now, after only a month of studying, he wants to back out. It is really hard for him to bring it up. Besides, with his mother-in-law's stubbornness, I am afraid she will not give in easily.
So he decided to convince Tian Xiuzhu first.
After returning to the room, Zhang Hongwei took out a skirt he had bought for her with his own money and said, "I saw that the women in the city looked very good in them, so I bought one for you. Come and try it on."
Tian Xiuzhu picked it up and tried it on herself. Feeling the smooth material, she felt so happy that she couldn't wait to exchange it.
After coming out, she turned around in front of him and asked, "How is it? Does it look good?"
Zhang Hongwei held her shoulders and nodded with a smile: "Well, it looks good. You look much better in it than those people."
Tian Xiuzhu was flattered by his sweet words.
He saw several college entrance examination review materials on the table, so he asked, "I borrowed a few review materials for you from the school library when I came back. Do you think they are useful?"
Tian Xiuzhu answered without thinking: "What you borrowed will definitely be useful."
Zhao Hongwei sat aside, sighed, and looked very lonely. Tian Xiuzhu asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you not used to being in school?"
He shook his head and said after a long while, "Xiuzhu, with your ability, you will definitely be able to study in a big city in the future. Then we will be separated, and I can't bear to leave you."
"If the time comes, I will apply to your school so that we can be together."
Zhang Hongwei took her hand and quickly refused, "No, with your ability, it's really a waste of talent for you to go to my current school. I can't bear to see you suffer."
As he said this, he hugged the person in his arms.
Tian Xiuzhu was so moved that she hugged his waist, buried her head in his chest, and said sullenly, "This is not okay, that is not okay, but I don't want to be separated from you."
Zhang Hongwei sighed, "I don't want to either, forget it."
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Tian Xiuzhu got up from his arms and asked, "Why are you hesitating? Just say what you want to say."
Zhang Hongwei looked embarrassed and was silent for a while before he reluctantly spoke: "Actually, I do have a way for us to be together in the future."
"What is it? Tell me quickly."
Tian Xiuzhu held his hand and looked at him hopefully.
"I can drop out of my current school and take the college entrance examination with you this year. That way, we can apply to the same school and then we can be together, right?"
After listening to him, Tian Xiuzhu also thought that this was a good idea.
"This is indeed a good idea, but my father had to work hard to get you a place in the Workers' and Militia University. If you withdraw now, how will he explain this to the higher-ups?"
Although her father didn't say it, she knew that in order to get this position, he must have said a lot of good things to those leaders.
At that time, I fought hard for this position, but now I have got it and I don't cherish it. Isn't this clearly giving people something to talk about?
Besides, she dropped out of school so soon. Her father will definitely be criticized in the village.
Zhang Hongwei: "I know this has caused trouble for Dad, but he is the secretary after all. He has eaten more meals than us and has more experience than us. Maybe he can find a way."
