Chapter 72 College Entrance Examination

I got up, got dressed, and opened the door to see the twins squatting at the door waiting for me pitifully. My eyes were fixed on them.

"Why are you here? Didn't grandma say she would take you to the department store?"

Xiao Wenzhu rubbed his eyes and said, "Mom, my brother won't let me and my brother go together."

Xiao Wensheng lowered his head in disappointment. Because he couldn't speak, he was often called a little dumb. Over time, his personality became a bit introverted.

Anger flashed in Meng Ruoxi's eyes.

Wen Jing never changed despite repeated admonitions, and her mother-in-law was partial to her, so the twins lived a life of treading on thin ice.

He went back to the room, got the money and tickets, picked up the twins and walked out.

"Come on, Mom will take you there."

Xiao Wenzhu smiled brightly, "Thank you, Mom."

Little Wen Sheng was speechless and could only squeeze his mother's hand. At a glance, one could tell that he was the best behaved and most considerate of the three children.

He is also Meng Ruoxi's favorite child.

She let go of Xiao Wenzhu's hand, bent down to pick up Xiao Wensheng, kissed him on the cheek, and her cold eyes softened as she praised him in a gentle voice, "Mom's Xiao Wensheng is so well-behaved. Mom likes Xiao Wensheng the most."

Little Wen Sheng looked at his mother shyly, pouting his little lips and kissing her on the face.

He wanted to say, Mom, I like you the most too.

There was a flash of disappointment in his eyes, thinking that he was a little dumb.

Little Wenzhu stared blankly at his hand that his mother had let go of, his eyes flickered and his lips were tightly pursed.

Mom seems to like my younger brother more.

Meng Ruoxi didn't notice Xiao Wenzhu's expression and her attention was completely focused on Xiao Wensheng.

This is the child she considers to be the most well-behaved, sensible, and the one she loves the most.

The mother-in-law ignored little Wen Sheng because he couldn't speak, the husband never took the twins seriously, and Wen Jing didn't act like an elder brother at all, bullying the twins every now and then.

What Meng Ruoxi could not accept the most was letting her child suffer after giving birth.

Before riding a bicycle to take the twins to the department store, I took the twins to my sister-in-law's house first.

Seeing that the door was not closed, he took the twins straight in.

Guan Meiling was sitting there in a daze with nothing to do. When she looked up, she saw her sister-in-law coming with the child, and she couldn't help but smile.

"I was thinking about going to chat with you later, but I didn't expect you to come first."

His eyes moved down to the twins, and surprise flashed in his eyes, "Not bad, you even remembered to bring my favorite twins with you."

Meng Ruoxi smiled and said, "The two little guys said they missed their aunt and begged me to bring them to see you. I couldn't resist, so I had to bring them here."

Little Wenzhu called out sensibly, "Auntie." He opened his arms and asked his auntie to hug him.

My mother said that my aunt was a very good person and that my brother and I should get closer to her.

Little Wensheng walked silently to his aunt's side, put his arms around her, and kissed her on the face.

Surrounded by her two adorable nephews, Guan Meiling was so happy that she didn't know what to do. She lowered her voice and complained to her two nephews.

"Your mother is just too lazy. She never takes you out, and never brings you to see me. I have to look for you every time." She asked in a low voice, as soft as a mosquito. "Do you think she is too lazy?"

The original intention was to make a joke and amuse the two nephews, but I knew that the two nephews were protecting their dogs and would definitely retort.

As expected, Wen Zhuqingjun's gentle little face fell, and his small eyebrows, as elegant as the ink on a distant mountain, wrinkled slightly.

"Aunt, my mother is very tired every day. She is not lazy."

Little Wensheng nodded anxiously and gestured with his hands, "Aunt, Mom is not lazy, you can't say bad things about Mom."

Guan Meiling laughed like she had gone mad, "Hahaha, auntie is joking with you. You two little idiots, why do you always get fooled?"

Xiao Wenzhu pursed her lips, feeling a little unhappy. This was not funny at all.

Little Wen Sheng looked at his aunt with strange eyes.

My mother often says that my father is mentally ill, and my aunt's condition seems a bit like my father's.

But Dad didn't laugh, he just stared at Mom with a cold face.

Every time I see the look in my father's eyes, I get scared, afraid that he will beat my mother.

I scratched the back of my head. Even though it was always my dad who got beaten, I still thought he looked scary.

A smile flashed across Meng Ruoxi's eyes very quickly, and even the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.

Ever since the twins came, she has been consciously or unconsciously nurturing their relationship with her sister-in-law.

As time went by, the sister-in-law naturally followed her plan and fell in love with the well-behaved and sensible twins.

After they packed up, they headed to the department store.

On the way, Meng Ruoxi kept planning for the future in her mind, and the look she gave the twins was filled with a hint of reluctance and guilt.

After I am gone, even if my sisters-in-law take care of the twins, I guess they won't have an easy life.

I gritted my teeth and hardened my heart. For the sake of the future, I must not be soft-hearted.

We can't get entangled with the Shi family because of the child.

I bought a lot of things for the twins and also for Wen Jing.

On the way back, Guan Meiling looked at her sister-in-law and asked in confusion, "Ruoxi, why did you suddenly buy so many things for the child?"

God knows how much she wanted to stop her sister-in-law from squandering money when they were in the department store!

Children grow up quickly, there is no need to buy so many clothes! What a waste!

Meng Ruoxi thought for a moment and answered, "Too much money?"

Because she had seen the future, she was in a rare mood to make jokes.

Guan Meiling's mouth twitched, "Ruoxi, when did you learn to be so humorous?"

Meng Ruoxi did not answer this question, but smiled and said calmly, "Let's go."

You can only buy things that your child can use at the current stage, otherwise the filling will be exposed.

It doesn’t matter how much money you spend; what matters is that the money you spend can ease your guilty conscience.

The twins were immersed in the joy of their mother buying them so many clothes and toys, and they had no idea that they were about to lose their beloved mother, who also loved them the most.

As soon as Wen Jing came back, he saw the clothes and toys his mother bought for him. He was so happy that he couldn't wait to try them on.

Li Taohua used to complain about her daughter-in-law not taking care of the children, but now she suddenly buys so many things for the children, which she finds strange.

It's not that I feel sorry for the money, but I feel that there must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary.

Meng Ruoxi understood her doubts and said calmly, "Mom, don't blame me for spending money lavishly. I don't know when Yan Jin will be back. I can't take care of three children by myself. I hope the children can bother me less because of these clothes and toys."

Li Taohua suddenly understood.

So that's how it is. This explains my daughter-in-law's abnormal behavior.

From the beginning to the end, she had no idea that her daughter-in-law, who had married into the family and had given birth to three children, was planning to abandon her husband and children, and she did not doubt the truth of her words at all.

Little Wen Jing changed his clothes, ran to his mother, turned around, and said happily, "Mom, Mom, I like this dress so much. It looks so good on me."

So happy! This is the first time my mom buys clothes for herself!

Meng Ruoxi reached out and hugged him, "As long as you like it, mom also thinks it looks good on Wen Jing."

Li Taohua smiled and praised, "Our Wen Jing is getting more and more handsome. He looks just like your mother."

Wen Jing loved the last sentence and smiled so much that his eyes narrowed. His handsome face with curved eyebrows was really beautiful.

Dad often says that he looks exactly like Mom, and that it is his blessing, and that he is a good child who is born blessed.

The twins looked on enviously, looking down at the clothes in their hands, and their hands held tighter and tighter.

On October 21st, a piece of news shocked the whole country and spread rapidly across the country.

The college entrance examination has been resumed after a ten-year absence!

Eligible workers, farmers, educated young people who went to the countryside and returned to the city, demobilized soldiers and recent graduates can all sign up to participate, and the registration fee is only 50 cents!

The moment she walked into the examination room, Meng Ruoxi held her breath and concentrated.

Success or failure depends on this one move, I must succeed!
