Zhou Shuyan was a little surprised.
Lu Youxi is really a person who is very willing to listen to advice.
She admitted her mistake so quickly that he was unable to say the words he had prepared.
Zhou Shuyan felt as if his throat was blocked, and even felt a little depressed.
"Let's go." He said in a muffled voice, turned around and left.
Lu Youxi curled the corners of his mouth and followed him.
This person must have prepared a lot of words to educate her.
But she really realized her mistake this time, and she was a little self-righteous.
However, it was also because she truly believed that Zhou Shuyan would not hurt her.
Soon, Zhou Shuyan sent Lu Youxi to the gate of Lu's house.
Lu Youxi wanted to say good night to him, but felt that it was too weird to say so.
So Lu Youxi said nothing in the end and walked in silently.
Zhou Shuyan glanced at the closed door of the Lu family and then walked towards Grandma Xu's house.
Lu Youxi quietly returned to his room, tidied himself up simply, changed his clothes and went to bed.
She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. Although the room was damp and dark, a little moonlight still shone in at night, casting a pale light on the slightly moldy ceiling.
Lu Youxi's thoughts drifted away, and she couldn't help but think of the time when Zhou Shuyan approached her at the door of Grandma Xu's house, looking tentative and threatening.
She couldn't help but stretch her hand out from under the quilt and gently pinched her ears with her fingers, which seemed to still retain the heat of Zhou Shuyan's breath.
Then she covered her neck again, which seemed to still carry the warmth of Zhou Shuyan's palms and fingertips.
Lu Youxi sighed and thought that he should not get too involved with this man.
Based on her experience and knowledge of people in her previous life, she felt that Zhou Shuyan was no ordinary person.
He will not stay in Hexing Village for long, and he must have some secrets. He is not an ordinary person.
* The next morning, after Lu Youxi finished his housework, he prepared to go to the village entrance.
She calculated the time and found that the admission letter should arrive in the next few days.
Since yesterday, she has been estimating the time when the courier will arrive at the village entrance, and will go there to wait to see if there is any admission letter.
Now thinking that the courier would be here soon, he prepared to go again.
Seeing that Lu Youxi was about to go out again, Mrs. Lu shouted at the top of her voice: "Daya, where are you going again!"
Lu Youxi pursed his lips and said, "I'll go to the entrance of the village to take a look."
"What are you doing going to the village entrance every day? Do you want to pick up a man?" Mrs. Lu said maliciously, "There are so many things to do at home, and you go there to be lazy?"
Lu Youxi looked coldly at his cousin Lu Youzhen who had a sneering expression on her face.
Lu Youzhen is half a year younger than her, but because of her birthday, she started school a year later than her.
I won’t be in my senior year of high school until after the summer vacation.
"Sister, which prestigious university have you applied to? You run to the village entrance every day, looking forward to it?" Lu Youzhen's smiling eyes, which were curved into crescents, were filled with disdain and sarcasm.
Lu Youxi does have good academic performance, so there should be no problem for him to get into university.
But getting into university is different from getting into Peking University, the top university in China.
So what if Lu Youxi got into college? She's still not as good as her brother.
"Go to college? What kind of college can she get into?" Old Lady Lu snorted disdainfully, "If she can't get into Beijing University, it would be a waste of money to go to another college. A little girl should just wait to get married."
Aunt Lin, the neighbor next door, was pouring a basin of dirty water on the ground in the yard. When she heard the Lu family's voice, she climbed up the ladder and half of her body was exposed from the wall between the two houses. She said as if she was watching a good show, "By the way, your Yuxi is going to college this year. It's a good thing to be able to go to college. Even if it's not Beijing University, it's good to go to another university."
"What kind of future can ordinary college students have? It's a waste of money!" Old Mrs. Lu rolled her eyes, "It's better for her to get married and live a good life at home!"
"And what university can she get into? Does she think everyone is our friend? Can she go to Beijing University?" Old Mrs. Lu rolled her eyes at Lu Youxi with disdain, "Don't tell others about it! You just stay at home and work honestly!"
"I really did apply to Beijing University." Lu Youxi said loudly, "Brother Youbang is not the only Beijing University student in our village."
"Bah! Don't you think it's embarrassing!" Old Madam Lu spat, "I feel ashamed for you! You want to apply to Peking University? And you have the nerve to say that? You will be embarrassed if you fail!"
"Whether you can pass the exam or not, you'll know if you get the admission letter." Lu Youzhen said, watching the fun from the side, "Hasn't your elder sister been waiting for the express delivery every day these days? I see she hasn't received it yet. I guess there's no hope."
"Lu Youxi, stop shouting about your admission to Beijing University and bringing shame to the Lu family!" Old Master Lu came out with a cigarette in his hand. He happened to hear what Lu Youxi and Lu Youzhen were saying, and said unhappily, "Why are you going to college? How can our family afford to send you to college? Just wait and get married!"
"Uncle Lu, you can't say that." The neighbor added, "There is only one college student in our village, Youbang. Even if Youxi didn't get into Beijing University, it would be good for him to get into another university! Beijing University is not the only good school in China."
Lu Youxi curled his lips. Aunt Lin next door usually liked gossip, especially because she lived close to their Lu family, so she knew all the gossip about the Lu family.
I didn't expect that this time, I really have to thank Aunt Lin for her help.
"Either she gets admitted to Peking University like Youbang, then I will agree to let her go to college, otherwise it would be a waste of money!" Mr. Lu knocked his pipe against the wall twice and said firmly.
"Uncle, I don't agree with this."
Before Aunt Lin could finish her words, Old Lady Lu interrupted her, "Xiao Lin, this is our family's business, why are you meddling in it?"
Aunt Lin was about to get angry, but Lu Youxi said, "Grandpa, grandma, if I get admitted to Beijing University, you will let me go to school, right?"
"Do you really think you can get into Peking University?" Old Mrs. Lu looked at Lu Youxi with contempt, "That's Peking University! Can you get in just by talking?"
"Don't worry about these. I just want to ask, if I pass the exam, can I go to school?" Lu Youxi smiled, "In fact, I don't even need to ask for your consent. My parents paid for my college, not my grandparents. Why can't you let me go?"
