Chapter 7 Youth at the Age of Eighteen
Meng Shulan didn’t care what others thought or whether she looked good or not. She just wanted to cry. She had to cry.
In her previous life, she went out to study, then went to work, and after she got married, she rarely returned home.
Although she has a house allocated by the company and a new family, this is where she wants to go back the most.
This is where she was born and raised. The one holding her is her biological mother who gave her life. Only here, in front of her parents and brothers and sisters, can she get the purest love, from their tolerance and selfless dedication.
People are like this, they often don't know how to cherish something until they lose it.
That's just how she is.
Now, she has returned to her childhood as a little girl, and she must have a good cry.
He wanted to vent out all the regrets from his previous life, all the hatred from his previous life, all the fear and pain he felt when his mouth and nose were covered while he was dying.
She can act like a spoiled child and seek comfort again, but she can't complain, which is a pity.
He Jinqiu didn't get off the ground and quickly helped her daughter back.
The gate of the Meng family's courtyard was closed, blocking out the gossiping eyes around them.
Everyone didn't understand the situation and kept talking to each other, so they didn't disperse.
Someone asked Gu Hansong how Meng Shulan fell. Although it was Saturday today, it was not time to go home from school yet. How come she came back without her schoolbag?
Gu Hansong naturally ignored them and gave them two cold looks, and those people didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Gu Hansong is such a dull guy. He seems to be indifferent to everyone and everyone finds him boring.
The key is this person. You can't say he is rude. His cold face and indifferent expression give people an indescribable sense of oppression. You always feel that you are inferior to him in front of him and dare not act rashly.
The crowd who came to watch the fun chatted for a few words and then dispersed.
At this moment, the gate of the Gu family opened and Grandma Wu came out with a cane.
The 76-year-old boss has a head full of silver hair, and his back appears a little hunched because his legs and feet are not very flexible.
But he looks healthy and in good spirits.
Grandma Wu first looked at the gate of the courtyard next door, and then asked her grandson who had already gotten off the car, "Why are you back? Aren't those vegetables for Liu Dechun's family? They have guests tonight, why aren't you going yet?"
Gu Songhan's job today was to deliver dishes for a banquet to a family in a nearby village.
After hearing what his grandma said, Gu Hansong turned the car around and prepared to leave.
"I'll be there now."
That was all he said, and he wasn't willing to say anything more.
Grandma Wu was already used to her grandson's temper. She said, "Be careful, the road is slippery," and turned back to the house.
Meng family.
Meng Shulan cried bitterly, but her tears were slowly stopping now.
She sat on the bed wrapped in a large quilt, wiped her face with a handkerchief, and "explained" her behavior.
The excuse of a fall certainly could not cover up her crying, because she skipped classes and did not bring back her schoolbag and luggage.
Meng Shulan said that she did poorly in the exam a few days ago and dropped from sixth to eighth in the grade. She felt bad and panicked, so she ran back. However, the road was difficult to walk on and she fell again.
He Jinqiu thought it was a big deal, and after hearing that, he breathed a sigh of relief and advised her, "It's just that you dropped two places. You can catch up if you work harder next time."
He Jinqiu has little education and doesn't know how to persuade his daughter, so he can only say this.
Meng Shulan nodded, "Mom, I just can't figure it out for the moment, it's okay, don't worry."
After venting, Meng Shulan felt much better.
Seeing that she had calmed down, He Jinqiu brought in a basin and a kettle and asked his daughter to tidy herself up and soak her feet.
It's so cold today. Come back barefoot, don't get frostbite.
Meng Shulan sniffed and nodded. After He Jinqiu went out, she took off her clothes, washed herself briefly, and then soaked her feet while looking in the mirror.
After being reborn, she hasn't taken a good look at herself yet.
At this moment, the face in the round mirror was really pleasing to look at.
In her previous life, she had surgery and was hospitalized for a long time to take medicine. She became so thin that she was unrecognizable. Her face was so pale and sallow that she was simply unbearable to look at.
After being reborn, she has a fair and rosy face, clear and bright eyes, and lips that are red without any makeup.
Every place calls for vitality and youth.
Eighteen years old, what a great age! In her previous life, she was diagnosed with cancer at the age of twenty-nine, which meant that if she couldn't avoid it in this life, she would have eleven years of free time.
It’s not enough, but it’s enough to arrange everything, and maybe I can even take some time to see the world.
Having experienced illness and death in her previous life, she became more open-minded after her rebirth.
Meng Shulan was holding the mirror happily when she heard her father's voice.
When Meng Fude heard that his daughter had returned, he burst into tears, stopped the work in his hands, and hurried home.
When her father returned, Meng Shulan couldn't help but feel tears in her eyes again. She quickly put down the mirror, wiped her feet, put on her shoes and wanted to go out, but the sound of talking outside made her stop again.
The earthen walls and fences in the countryside are not soundproof. My mother is discussing with my father about going to the city to find her a college entrance examination cram school.
In recent years, the enthusiasm for the college entrance examination has not yet passed, and all kinds of sprint classes and intensive classes have emerged one after another, with famous teachers teaching and college students sharing their learning experiences. Whatever you want, you can get it.
But those things cost money, and they are not cheap at all.
It was Meng Chenggong who wrote back to tell me about the sprint class.
He had this idea when his younger sister decided to repeat a grade.
But when the old couple of the Meng family heard about the tuition fees and the various expenses for their daughter's food, accommodation and transportation in the city, they became hesitant.
Although my son receives a subsidy of more than 40 yuan per month in the army, he is married, has a wife, and children to support.
He Jinqiu had previously thought that he should wait until next semester and then arrange another three months before the exam to make a final push.
After her daughter came home crying today, she felt that this matter could not wait any longer.
"It's just for this year. Let Chenggong work hard for a while. As long as I can pass the exam next year, everything will be fine."
Nowadays, graduates from universities will be arranged with jobs, which are stable jobs.
Meng Fude wiped his face and nodded, saying, "It's hard to explain this in a letter. I'll take some things to visit the boss in a couple of days."
Meng Chenggong was transferred back to the city military region a few years ago. They are not too far from the city. It only takes an hour and a half to get to the town by car.
He Jinqiu: "You should talk to the boss privately first. We don't know what Hua Jun's attitude is yet. If he is not happy, let him coax him and discuss it with him."
Meng Chenggong’s wife is Xu Huajun, an only child who grew up in a military compound. She is a person of opinionated and somewhat stubborn.
As for Meng Chenggong, he has a strong patriarchal mentality, has been leading troops for a long time, and has a bad temper.
The couple likes to quarrel over this and that, and are currently in the adjustment stage.
Montford said, "Yeah," "I see."
That's it for the sprint class in the city.
But Meng Shulan rushed out, her words urgent and firm, "Dad, Mom, I won't take this sprint class."
Keep asking for votes, my dears~ (End of this chapter)
