The little goldfish pulled up Qiao Yu's clothes and snored into his nose.

puff!!

Qiao Yu's smug look didn't last for a few seconds, and he immediately said, "You naughty kid! Why are you snoring on my clothes? Did I not buy you some paper or something?!"

As soon as she stood up, Lao Zhou handed her a tissue. After Qiao Yu finished smoking, he wiped the dirt off the corner of his clothes.

Old Zhou blamed Little Goldfish for a moment, then quickly spoke up for his daughter: "She is just too sad..."

The little goldfish complained, "You don't let me cry, and you don't let me snore. You really make things difficult for me."

"Didn't I allow you to snore? I allowed you to use paper!" Qiao Yu was furious.

She was disgusted by her cousin.

Little Goldfish: "At that time, all I saw was your clothes, mom."

Qiao Yu was about to say something, but the boat was about to sail. Seeing Zhou Wen boarding, she glared at the little goldfish and gritted her teeth, "I'll settle the score with you when I get back!"

The little goldfish made a face.

As the boat started, the family could only wave at Zhou Wen.

The big packages were sent to Beijing, and the small ones were packed in the suitcase.

Zhou Wen had pocket money he had saved over the years, as well as an additional two hundred yuan from Qiao Yu and his wife.

When you go out, money is king.

Even though his second uncle had already collected the money and food coupons for the family he was going to stay in, he was still somewhat afraid of the unfamiliar environment and the independence he would face.

After the fear, I began to understand the changes in my brother.

After their eldest brother left, when they returned home for the first New Year, they all felt that he had changed, but they couldn't put their finger on what had changed.

It is probably because they have become independent individuals, have to face more things and have ways to deal with them. Even if they are not older, they are almost like adults.

They are all life experiences of becoming independent from "home" and walking out step by step.

…

His family originally wanted to send him to the station, but he refused.

Zhou Wen boarded the train with his ticket in hand amidst the huge crowd. Feeling nervous and half asleep, he guarded his suitcase and arrived in Beijing.

Someone picked me up in Beijing.

The moment he saw the other person, he finally felt relieved.

My second uncle’s mentor’s surname was Xie.

Teacher Xie is a high school teacher. The reason why he is Zhang Zhou’s mentor is that he is indeed a life guide.

Zhang Zhou's strange personality made him unpopular among his classmates. It was not until Teacher Xie discovered him and counseled him, and after communicating with his grandfather, he realized that Zhang Zhou was a good talent. That's how he achieved what he has today.

When Zhang Zhou first mentioned Zhou Wen to Teacher Xie, Teacher Xie thought that the child's condition was more serious than Zhang Zhou's back then. However, after a quick glance at the station, Teacher Xie saw that this well-looking child gave him a tentative friendly smile.

Of course he was generous with his smile.

…

Teacher Xie helped him carry his luggage to the alley. While greeting the neighbors, he said, "Schools are closed now, so there's a lot of noise. University professors... well, high school teachers like us are safer. I'll stay at home for now. I'm free anyway, so it doesn't matter if I teach you one."

"What about my high school diploma?"

"Don't worry, the school will be restored after this crisis is over, and you can just take the exam then. You were recommended by Zhang Zhou, and you are the descendant of a martyr. The higher-ups are also paying attention to your abilities and don't want to bury such a useful talent."

Zhou Wen breathed a sigh of relief.

Teacher Xie added, "The university has been shut down, but they are working on the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. Your name has been pushed up by Zhang Zhou. You are one of the first batch of students from the Beijing Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University."

Zhou Wen said excitedly: "Can I still go to college?"

"Can."

Zhou Wen followed Teacher Xie into the courtyard.

It was a bit messy inside, and the floor space was small. His room was a small block separated from the utility room...

He was already restless. It was difficult for him to stretch his legs in this bed. He would probably have to curl up at night.

Teacher Xie scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly, "Housing in Beijing is tight. Fortunately, my wife and parents still have jobs, otherwise we wouldn't be able to apply for this small courtyard. I'm sorry to have to inconvenience you."

"It's okay, thank you teacher." Zhou Wen stuffed the suitcase under the bed and saw that there was still some empty space under the bed, which should be able to hold his large package.

There is also a small table at the head of the bed, which can be taken down and placed on the bed for reading.

Zhou Wen touched the small table, turned around and said to his second uncle's teacher, "Thank you, thank you teacher."

"It's okay. Let's go get your package. It arrived early, but you were so late that we thought something had happened."

The package was placed in Teacher Xie's bedroom.

This room is about the same size as a storage room, and can only hold a desk. On the desk are test papers that I didn't have time to put away.

Teacher Xie was embarrassed for a moment, and hurried over to clean up, saying, "I have been circling questions these past two days... Although the college entrance examination has been cancelled and the university is gone, who knows what will happen in the future? As high school teachers, we are used to circling key points for students.

I have been bored at home recently, so I circled the exam points from previous years and the questions I am optimistic about...

Look at me, as a teacher, I am used to nagging. You are wrapped up there, so please do as you please. "

Zhou Wen walked forward to check.

The package was large and showed no signs of having been moved.

He opened it in front of Teacher Xie.

Teacher Xie had just put the test papers into the drawer when she turned around and saw him unpacking a large package on the ground. She hurried to stop him: "What are you doing? If you want to unpack it, go back to your room..."

"Here is a gift from my parents for you. From now on, I will have to rely on you and your family to take care of me."

"Take it back, take it back."

"It's not expensive, please keep it, teacher."

Teacher Xie took a look and saw that it was dried seafood, which can be seen everywhere on the island, except for the jar of orange-yellow stuff that he had never seen before...

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!

Zhou Wen introduced: "This is dried kelp, which can be used to make pork ribs soup; dried shrimp skin and seaweed can be used to make soup; dried scallops..."

Zhou Wen: "The last one is crab oil, made from crab roe. A lot of oil is added to it. It can be eaten with dry noodles."

After thanking the teacher for taking it, Zhou Wen gave out another half of the jerky, "This is the jerky my uncle sent me."

Teacher Xie wanted to refuse, but Zhou Wen insisted.

"Teacher, just take it. If my mother knew that I ate it myself instead of you, she would beat me to death."

Teacher Xie: …

Who says "Kill me" with a smile on their face?

Could it be that this child has become abnormal in some other way?

After taking it, Teacher Xie sighed and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"My mother prepared all of this."

"When you go home for the New Year, bring some things back with you."

"Yeah." Zhou Wen did not refuse the courtesy.

After the chat, Zhou Wencai sorted out the remaining things and put them under the bed.

Fortunately, there aren't many ants here, the climate is dry, things are well-stocked, and there aren't any rats visiting.

At lunch time, the Xie family members came back one after another.

In addition to Teacher Xie's wife and parents, there are two married sons, a younger daughter who is the same age as him, and two married daughters whose names are only mentioned.

Teacher Xie's daughter-in-law is already pregnant...

Zhou Wen was instantly glad that he would only live there for three years and that the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University had dormitories.

Otherwise, in such a large family with four generations living together, it would be very inconvenient for an outsider like him to live here for a long time.

But my mother and younger sister were able to adapt quickly.
