Chapter 154: A Sense of Pressure Xu Heye was awakened by the pressure of a huge mountain...
Xu Heye was awakened by the pressure of a mountain.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Pang Wei lying across the bed with his upper body resting on her chest.
"No wonder I always feel like I'm going to be crushed to death." Xu Heye pushed the man off her with all her strength. She lay down for a while but couldn't fall asleep. When she saw that it was only six o'clock, she simply put on her cotton clothes and got up.
Xu Heye stood by the bed, pinched Pang Wei's chubby face, tucked him in, and then left the room. The living room was dark. Xu Heye turned on the light and saw Dong Taohua, wearing only pajamas and a cotton-padded jacket, sitting motionless on the sofa.
"Mom." Xu Heye called out.
Dong Taohua came back to her senses and looked at her: "Why are you up so early?"
"I usually get up around this time for school. I wake up and can't fall back asleep, so I get up." She walked over to sit next to Dong Taohua and asked her, "What about you? Why aren't you sleeping?"
"I'm the same. When I wake up and can't fall asleep, I go out to sit in the living room." She always had an inexplicable feeling of unreality.
Is this house really theirs?
"Of course it's yours," Xu Heye teased her. "If you still can't believe it, just take out the property deed and look at it for a few more seconds, and you'll feel it."
"You little bitch, you're making fun of your mother." Dong Taohua nodded her head, got up and went back to her room.
"Mom, where are you going?"
Dong Taohua: "It's not even daybreak yet, I'm going to take another nap."
When he got back to the room, he felt cold. He shivered, crawled under the covers, and then squeezed into Xu Hui's arms. Xu Hui shivered too, as if someone had stuffed an ice cube into his arms. He wanted to avoid it but couldn't, so he had to give in and continue sleeping with him in his arms.
Xu Heye was a little amused. She returned to her room, got her schoolbag, and went to the study. Fortunately, there were tables and chairs in the study, otherwise she would have had to read in the living room.
As the sky gradually brightened, noises could be heard from the house.
Pang Qiao came to the study wearing a cotton coat and slippers, and saw Xu Heye sitting at the table, reading a book attentively.
"Ah~" she wailed and threw herself on Xu Heye, "Cousin, tell me the truth, how long have you been reading?"
"Not long." Pang Qiao just breathed a sigh of relief when Xu Heye took out his watch, looked at it and said, "Just two hours."
"Two hours, that's all?" Pang Qiao looked at Xu Heye in disbelief, suddenly wondering if this sister had no concept of time. Two hours, not two minutes!
During every winter and summer vacation, she would stay up all night to finish her homework three days before school started. Unlike this sister, she started reading early in the morning.
Suddenly I feel it’s not surprising that Xu Heye can achieve such results.
With such self-discipline, it's no surprise that she gets any grade in the exam. No wonder her mother was so dissatisfied with her after she came home from living with her cousin for a while last year.
If she were in that situation, she would also want a daughter like her cousin.
Xu Heye: "If you are envious, I can take you with me during the winter vacation."
Pang Qiao waved her hands repeatedly: "Sister, my sister, please forgive me." She looked at the watch hands. The hour hand pointed to eight and the minute hand was at twelve. It was eight o'clock in the morning. Xu Heye had already studied for two hours, which meant that she got up at six o'clock in the morning to come here to read.
"You're asking me to get up at six in the morning to read. You're killing me."
Xu Heye laughed: "I'm not calling you."
"But when I do my homework, you have to follow me." Xu Heye said, "Auntie showed me your final exam report card, and you did quite well."
"But you can't relax yet. It's okay if you don't want to preview in advance. But you have to do your winter vacation homework well. This is a good time to consolidate the knowledge learned last semester."
"Doing homework is the best way to fill in the gaps."
Pang Qiao hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
"Be good!" Xu Heye touched the back of her head, got up and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash up.
Pang Qiao's grades were good, but not outstanding. In her previous life, she didn't get into university, and Pang Qiao's scores weren't great either, so she only managed to get into a junior college. Junior colleges were still quite respectable in the 1980s, but after the expansion of university enrollment in 1993, the value of junior college degrees depreciated significantly.
They are not in the same school, and Pang Qiao does not have much time to tutor her during school hours.
By using the winter and summer vacations to prepare Pang Qiao, she might be able to score a few extra points on the college entrance exam, which would allow her to choose a better school. In the future, whether she was looking for a job or joining the government like she did in her previous life, she would have better prospects for advancement.
Pang Qiao shuddered and chased after her, "Cousin, why don't you make a study plan for Pang Wei as well. He will go to elementary school in the second half of next year, so you can arrange it in advance." As long as my friend dies, I will live, and Pang Wei, this kid, can't escape.
Xu Heye squeezed some toothpaste onto the toothbrush head and thought for a moment: "That's fine."
She is an only child. Her eldest cousin from her uncle's family is worse than a stranger. Her younger uncle is single and her closest siblings are Pang Qiao and Pang Wei.
In the future, there is a high probability that they will be the only ones left.
For this reason, she also hopes that the two of them can study better and live a smoother life in the future.
"Hehe." Pang Qiao was happy. She also took out a new cup and a new toothbrush from the drawer and started brushing her teeth.
After they finished washing up, Pang Wei, Dong Taohua and Xu Hui all got up.
After a quick breakfast, Dong Taohua and Xu Hui went out to do some shopping. This was the first New Year the three of them had spent in Hucheng, and Dong Taohua wanted it to be perfect, so she started preparing everything she needed.
After the two adults left, there were only three children left at home.
After holding the two little ones to their homework for an hour and a half, Pang Qiao and Pang Wei could no longer sit still. Xu Heye shook her head and let them go to the living room to watch TV.
"Write for an hour in the morning and finish the rest in the afternoon, okay?"
"I know." The brother and sister agreed in unison.
Pang Qiao also raised her hand: "I promise."
"I will never slack off in the afternoon."
"Let's go." Xu Heye waved her hand, put down her homework, and took out the nearest newspaper to read. When information was not well developed, reading a newspaper was the best way to understand the world.
After watching for less than half an hour, Pang Qiao's roar and Pang Wei's screams were heard outside the house.
When Xu Heye came out of the house, she saw Pang Qiao and Pang Wei fighting over the remote control.
There were two people, one wanted to watch the mythological TV series "Investiture of the Gods" released last year, and the other wanted to watch the cartoon "Tom and Jerry", and neither of them could convince the other!
Xu Heye walked over, grabbed the remote control, and changed the channel. She saw a channel playing Journey to the West, so she made the final decision, "Watch this!"
Pang Qiao looked at Xu Heye sadly and said, "I want to see a beautiful woman!" Su Daji, played by Fu Yiwei, can be said to be the enlightenment of their concubines.
Xu Heye: "Aren't there enough beauties in Journey to the West? The Jade Rabbit Fairy, the Queen of the Kingdom of Women, the Jade-faced Fox, the Princess Wansheng—which one isn't a peerless beauty?"
Pang Wei raised his round face and said obediently, "Sister He Ye, I want to watch Tom and Jerry."
Xu Heye touched his little head and said, "My dear! What's so interesting about foreign cats and mice? Our local monsters are more interesting."
Pang Wei shuddered, feeling that his cousin was a little scary at the moment.
She put the remote control on the coffee table and glanced at the two of them. "Be good and watch TV. If you don't want to watch, you can go to the study to study. I happen to be free right now, so I can tutor you."
Pang Qiao shuddered, exchanged glances with Pang Wei, and shook her head repeatedly: "No need, Journey to the West is quite interesting."
"Then you two should behave yourself. Don't quarrel or fight." A sense of oppression came over me.
"Okay." Pang Qiao looked up at Xu Heye, who was so well-behaved and sensible.
Xu Heye chuckled and went back to her room to continue reading.
She just wanted to scare the two of them.
Being able to persist in studying for an hour and a half was already the limit for someone who had no habit of studying during the holidays. Xu Heye was afraid that the two of them would pack their bags and run away immediately after the pressure was too severe.
