Chapter 158 Shen Yanhong's Regret
The things Jinran bought for her have been circulating in Datun Village for a long time. People often talk about them, saying they are good things that they have never seen before.
The younger generation has truly prospered; the Shen family is now a thriving household.
Upon hearing this, the eldest aunt felt a pang of regret, but then she thought that mutton can't be put on the dog meat. No matter how successful the third branch of the Shen family is, her family won't benefit from it. Even if she gave her heart to them, they might not even care.
Shen Qing from her family also said he went to Guangzhou and would bring her things after a while, so that the villagers could see that the Shen family wasn't just successful in the third branch.
And if her daughter gets into university, she'll be even more impressive. The suffering she's going through now is only temporary; the better days are yet to come.
The eldest aunt felt hopeful about the future and began to urge Shen Yanhong to study hard, saying that her future success in the village depended on her.
At first, Shen Yanhong was willing to listen to her mother, but after a while, she became annoyed. When they got home, Meng Fan still seemed listless and avoided talking to her.
Shen Yanhong immediately started picking a fight, "Do you still think you're some kind of young master? Do you know that my family is supporting you now? What kind of attitude is this? Shen Jinran found such a good partner, I was so blind to think I'd found a good man, but look how you treat me! I'm so wronged..."
Meng Fan remained silent, like a wooden statue, offering no response, explanation, or attempt to appease him.
Shen Yanhong's heart grew colder and colder. She felt that once this man left for the exam, he would never come back.
Meng Fan had previously mentioned that due to complicated family circumstances, he couldn't go home to prepare for the exam. However, with each failed attempt, Meng Fan became increasingly gloomy. He also became withdrawn and somber.
Sometimes, Shen Yanhong wondered if she had made the wrong choice. Was this man not as good as she thought?
But things have already come to this point, the child is already born, and even if she was wrong, she is right. She never wanted to go through the miserable and wretched life she had in her previous life again. Meng Fan is definitely the best choice for her.
Jinran was unaware of Shen Yanhong's regret. She was currently regretting why she had chosen to study history in college and why she had met Professor Wang, who liked her so much.
Here's what happened: Originally, she was giving Professor Wang a gift, but Professor Wang was so moved that he conscripted her into his service.
"Get ready and come with me to Panjiayuan. I'll show you around and broaden your horizons. What you learn from books is never enough; you have to learn through practice."
Jinran was on the verge of tears. She had managed to escape Professor Gu, but had fallen into Professor Wang's clutches.
However, to make matters worse, Professor Wang's wife had a particular fondness for Jinran. "Nini, I've heard Yaqin mention you before... you're Yanyan's grandma. She said you're a very talented girl. I'm only good at traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. When you're resting, come find me and I'll teach you."
Jinran: "So all this talk about reducing the burden on students is just empty talk?"
She didn't want to learn, but she had to pretend to be flattered and said it was her honor and that she must study hard.
Professor Wang said cheerfully, "We'll be going to Panjiayuan in a bit. They sell Xuan paper and calligraphy brushes there, so we can get everything we need in no time."
Life is tough, Ranran sighed!
She used to be free and unrestrained, but everything changed after she met Gu Siyan. Right... it's all Gu Siyan's fault. All her troubles were caused by him.
Now that we've found the source, we know how to vent our anger, and we're not angry at all anymore.
Professor Wang said to Jinran, "I called Professor Gu. I don't know if Yanyan is there. If she is, we can take a car. Otherwise, I'll take you on the bus."
Jinran: "Professor Wang has eight hundred schemes in his mind."
She knew Gu Siyan didn't have time, so Professor Wang eventually said she wouldn't bring Professor Gu along, considering him a burden and a hindrance.
In the end, Professor Gu said we could take a taxi, and he would pay for it.
There are a few taxis left in Beijing, but not many. And the prices are outrageously high. Ordinary people generally can't afford them.
Professor Wang then said arrogantly, "Then come pick us up from my house. Don't wait up!"
Jinran: "Professor Wang, wake up! Do you remember her relationship with Gu Siyan? If nothing unexpected happens, Professor Gu will be her grandfather in the future!"
