When Gu Zili learned that the college entrance examination was to be resumed, he was in his second year of high school. It was he who requested to take the college entrance examination.
But he was still under a lot of pressure, especially after looking at the study materials sent by Gu's father and others from Beijing. He felt that they were not on the same level as what the teachers taught at school. He knew everything the teachers taught at school, but there were many materials he didn't know when it came to reviewing for the college entrance examination.
Gu Zili took the college entrance examination review materials and went to school for a week. He kept thinking and considering it over and over again for a week. When he came back on the weekend, he first went to talk to Lu Hai.
"Brother-in-law, I don't want to go to school anymore. I want to study at home. If I don't understand something, I can ask you. I feel like I know everything the teacher teaches at school. It's a waste of time to listen to lectures. There are many things in the review materials that I don't know yet. I want to understand them. I feel that being at home can improve my learning efficiency.
If I want to study at home, I need to tell my teacher. Now that the college entrance examination has resumed, the school is very strict and it is difficult for us to ask for leave."
Lu Hai patted Gu Zili's shoulder with relief: "Zili, you are very smart. I will go to school to ask for leave for you tomorrow. You should study hard at home. If you don't know, ask your sister, Sister Tiantian. My brother and I can do it. We are all very capable.
Tomorrow my brother and I are going to the commune, selling our jobs, and planning to stay at home and prepare for the college entrance exam. When the time comes, our whole family will go to Beijing and develop together.
Be independent, and don't put too much pressure on yourself. If you don't pass the exam this year, you can take it again next year. We have your whole family to support you. Don't worry. The most important thing is to be happy every day. Don't push yourself too hard, just study moderately."
"Brother-in-law, I don't feel stressed, but I feel it's very challenging. I'm very interested in taking the college entrance exam. I've been in the countryside for so many years, and it's time for me to return to the capital.
I feel very motivated now. I must get into university. I must solve the questions I don’t know in the review materials. My desire to learn cannot be stopped.
Brother-in-law, I'm grown up now. You don't need to worry about me. I know what I want and what I want to do. Brother-in-law, don't worry. I won't let you worry. I will definitely get into college. "
"Okay, we are the most self-reliant. You were raised by your brother-in-law. I am very happy and feel a sense of accomplishment that you have this awareness.
"Zili, go study with them in the living room. I'll go to the kitchen and make you something delicious to nourish you. Studying is very strenuous, and you need to get enough nutrition. Your body is the capital of revolution, and you must eat and drink well first to have enough motivation to fight hard."
"Brother-in-law, I want to eat meat. You know, any kind of meat will do."
"Okay, today I plan to make a stewed pheasant with Gastrodia elata, spicy diced rabbit, braised fish, stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, and wild vegetable soup."
"Brother-in-law, that's great. These are all my favorite foods. Brother-in-law, you are the best to me. I will definitely take care of you in your old age and treat you like my own father."
Lu Hai touched his head and refused awkwardly: "Zili, I don't need you to take care of me in my old age. Zihao and Zijie will take care of me in my old age. You can't take away their responsibilities.
We are brothers, as long as you take good care of Zihao and Zijie and don't cause trouble for your sister. "
Gu Zili patted Lu Hai's shoulder and said, "I understand, brother-in-law. I will keep an eye on Zijie and Zihao and prevent them from competing with you for my sister's. I will also let them do their own things and let them slowly become independent."
"Yes, that's it. Just watch them two and that's all. Go study now. I'm going to the kitchen to cook. Your sister will be hungry soon. She ordered spicy diced rabbit."
Gu Zili went to the living room and saw Lu Zijie and Lu Zihao lying in Gu Ranran's arms. Gu Zili coughed twice before pretending to ask, "Brother-in-law, why are you here? Aren't you going to the kitchen to cook? Did you forget to get something?"
Lu Zijie and Lu Zihao quickly got out of Gu Ranran's arms and pretended to be playing with toys, but their eyes were still staring outside with concern.
After waiting for a long time, Lu Hai still didn't come in, so Lu Zihao asked in a low voice: "Uncle, where is my dad? Why didn't he come in? You are not lying to us, are you? You didn't see my dad at all, and you are deliberately scaring us. Humph, uncle, you have become bad too."
Gu Zili spread his hands and said indifferently: "Brother-in-law, he just came to the yard to get something. I thought he forgot it in the living room and came back to get it.
How could I possibly lie to you? I'm not that naive. Be careful. If your father isn't around and you run into your mother's arms again, you'll be caught and lose your life."
As soon as Gu Zili finished speaking, Lu Zihao and Lu Zijie smiled again and ran back to Gu Ranran's arms. They were not afraid of Gu Zili at all, and did not care what Gu Zili said.
Gu Ranran also indulged them. While hugging them, she kissed each of them. The three of them smiled happily at the same time.
Gu Zili thought of Lu Hai's words, walked over, picked up Lu Zijie and Lu Zihao, and began to lecture them: "Zijie, Zihao, don't you know how heavy you are? One of you weighs 40 kilograms, and the two of you weigh 80 kilograms. My sister is so thin, how could she possibly hold both of you at the same time? She only weighs 90 kilograms, less than ten kilograms heavier than the two of you combined. Don't you feel sorry for her?"
Looking at the silent Lu Zihao and Lu Zijie, Gu Zili said more seriously: "Zihao, Zijie, I am so disappointed in you two. You are so old, but you still don't know how to take care of your mother. Look at your own flesh, and then look at your mother, how thin she is? It's all because of taking care of you two brats. She is so tired and thin. You two are still not satisfied. You are so big, but you still want your mother to hold you."
