Chapter 122 Fubao is a lucky star
In the previous life, all the good luck of the Nie family, everything the Nie family enjoyed, even everything that Shengjin and I enjoyed, were brought by Fubao?
In this life, I drove Fubao away, so I have nothing. Even Shengjin, who should have been admitted to a prestigious university with Fubao, failed.
Without Fubao, the Nie family is in trouble?
When Shengyin thought of this, his eyes widened, and his mind kept recalling this life and the previous life, in an endless cycle, comparing one thing after another, thinking about them one by one. In the previous life, he was always lucky by accident, but in this life, he was always inexplicably unlucky.
Is it possible that there is an invisible hand behind all these changes controlling everything, and is this the blessing behind Fubao, the good fortune that belongs to Fubao?
Just thinking about this possibility made Shengyin shudder.
Her eyes widened.
If Fubao really is that lucky guy, then what is she doing? Is she pushing away the good luck she has earned?
As she thought about this, she suddenly remembered some details from her previous life.
There were some trivial matters that she didn't care about at the time, such as how her parents loved Fubao, saying that Fubao was lucky and that without Fubao, our family wouldn't be in this situation. She didn't take it seriously and sneered, thinking that her parents were just partial.
But now, she suddenly understood.
She held her head and pulled her hair in pain.
This time, Fubao shared his review materials. Many students in the county did well in the exam. Although not as good as Fubao, they all seemed to be doing well. But she was the only one who got Fubao's materials, but inexplicably missed it because of diarrhea!
Is it Fubao's good fortune that is excluding her and not letting her benefit from it?
Shengyin almost pulled his hair out.
Why did she want to be reborn? Wouldn't it be better to be a child who knew nothing like in her previous life and wasn't loved by her parents? Why would she go through so much trouble?
At this moment, Nie Laosan's wife fell asleep.
She fell asleep and had a dream.
In that dream, she lived a happy life and everything went smoothly. Fubao was still her daughter. She loved Fubao very much, even more than her own twins. Fubao was also very happy in the Nie family.
She had been eating delicious food since she was in confinement, and later on she could have whatever she wanted to eat. Many of the bad things she had experienced in her life were other people's families, never hers.
Even when she was reselling cotton wool, her husband was not arrested for speculation. Instead, he brought back a lot of cotton. Her family lived a comfortable life and could often eat delicious food.
Later, she dreamed of something. She dreamed that her son Shengjin was admitted to the capital, her son Fubao was also admitted to the capital, and although her son Shengyin was not very good at studying, he was also recruited to work in the county textile factory. In short, everything was going well for their family.
The villagers looked at her with envy. Everyone said that she, Nie Laosan's wife, was blessed and that her family lived a prosperous life.
This dream was so wonderful and beautiful. She felt like she was floating on the clouds and landing in a pile of happy cotton. Her whole body felt comfortable and was filled with little bubbles of happiness. She laughed in that dream, laughing so hard that her mouth couldn't close and she laughed so hard that she wanted to cry.
She felt that life was so good and worth it!
Suddenly, she woke up from her dream.
After waking up, she rubbed her eyes.
What's wrong with this house? Why is it so shabby? And what's wrong with her clothes? It's not the woolen coat that Fubao gave her as a gift.
She stood up and saw Shengyin again. Shengyin looked dazed, with his arms crossed, as if shivering.
Why is raw silver like this?
She stared at the raw silver, and suddenly, the beautiful dreams in her mind burst like colorful soap bubbles.
That, that's all fake, it's a dream!
After waking up from the dream, the reality of everything appeared cruelly and horribly before my eyes.
There was no Imperial University of Peking, no textile factory, no fragrant pork belly, and no woolen coat that made the whole village envious.
All we have is a cold stove and a miserable situation where two children have already failed the entrance exam.
Nie Laosan's wife widened her eyes and looked at all this in confusion.
If she hadn't had that dream, she might not have thought about it.
But having that dream and having tasted that kind of beauty and happiness, she looked at everything in front of her and suddenly let out a sharp cry.
"Silver, silver!"
She suddenly ran over and grabbed Shengyin: "If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have driven Fubao away! It's you, it's you, it's you!!"
Shengyin, whose neck was being strangled, raised her head in a trance and looked at her mother.
Her mother treated her cruelly.
She clenched her fists and shook her head slightly.
No……
She didn't want to be the silver-bearing woman in her previous life.
Even if she lived a good life, she still didn't want to be the eternal second child, the child who was always seen after Fubao.
If she wants to be one, she will be the most glorious one.
Even if she fought with Fubao, the final result would be tragic, and she would accept it.
She raised her hand, pried her mother's hand apart, and said coldly: "Did I drive Fubao away? It was you, you didn't want Fubao anymore. You thought Fubao was a burden and didn't want her anymore. What does it have to do with me!"
After the initial excitement and surprise, the Gu family happily prepared the necessary items for Fubao and Gu Shengtian to go to school in the capital. Speaking of which, these days, even though getting into university doesn't guarantee you a high-ranking official position, it means you don't have to worry about your future.
Gu Weidong had inquired about it a long time ago and was told that the country would take care of many future equipments. After asking around and carefully reading the admission letter, Gu Weidong and his wife prepared pens, stationery, vanishing cream, a Double Happiness porcelain washbasin, an enamel thermos, teacups, cold water cups, etc. for Fubao Gu Shengtian. They also made new bedding and went to the county town to buy good fabrics to make new clothes for all four seasons.
After everything was ready, Liu Guizhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. When Fubao and Gu Shengtian went to university, their household registration would be transferred to the city, and their food supply would also be transferred to the city. Then they would be people who eat government food.
I heard that the university provides a living allowance every month, and it seems that the allowance is about sixteen dollars a month.
Although the fourth branch of the Gu family is living a better life now and can support two children without subsidies, the feeling is different when the government gives them subsidies. When you tell others about it, others will look at you with envy and say, "This is eating public food." The feeling is completely different from supporting them yourself.
After everything was ready, Fubao and Gu Shengtian were also about to set off. Before leaving, in addition to receiving various earnest instructions from Liu Guizhi every day, they also had to take time to attend a classmate gathering.
Many of Fubao's classmates were admitted.
It is said that the county committee noticed this and wondered why so many people in the county were admitted to college, which was three times the number of people in other counties. For this reason, they specially wrote a summary report and submitted it, and received praise from their superiors.
Fubao's classmates knew very well that if it weren't for Fubao's information, how could they have passed the exam so easily? This was all thanks to Fubao.
On this day, Fubao's classmates held a party and invited Fubao and Gu Shengtian. Fubao thought it was just an ordinary classmate party and went there happily. However, as soon as she entered, her classmates surrounded her, gave her gifts one by one, and thanked her with tears in their eyes.
One female classmate, Niu Qiudi, even shook her hand and said, "Fubao, you are my lifelong benefactor. My books were long gone, and I couldn't buy any review materials at the bookstore. I thought I had no chance, but thanks to your materials, I studied them so many times that I wore them out, and finally I passed the exam."
She held Fubao's hand tightly and said, "Thank you, Fubao, thank you so much."
As she spoke, she cried: "If it weren't for your information, I would definitely not have passed the exam. If I hadn't passed the exam, I, I might have to get married!"
Everyone looked at this female classmate and couldn't help but want to cry.
They knew that Niu Qiudi's family was extremely poor and she had a younger brother. She had a hard life during her school years and was so hungry every day. If she failed the exam, her family would definitely force her to marry off quickly, but she wouldn't marry into a good family.
Now, Niu Qiudi passed the exam, and her family became prosperous and pampered. She can go to college, eat commercial grain, and live a good life from now on.
The path of life has suddenly become different!
It's not just Niu Qiudi, other students are the same. No matter what the family situation is, everyone hopes to pass the exam. Passing the exam will make a difference.
This time, I was able to successfully get into my ideal university not only because of my own hard work, but also because of the information Fubao gave me.
In addition to that information, they also believed that Fu Bao brought them good luck.
I heard that Fubao was born from a nunnery and was born with good fortune. The information she gave to everyone was blessed.
They may not really believe this in their hearts, but they always have a vague feeling that there may be a connection.
Therefore, the gratitude in their hearts towards Fubao was further enhanced. The peasant children had a deep-seated reverence for the mysterious power and admiration for her character and selfless spirit. All of this made them feel differently about Fubao.
Fubao changed their destiny.
Fubao was really surprised to see these eyes that were full of gratitude and almost admiration for him.
She initially shared the information because she felt she needed it, and because she needed it, she shared it.
She has been studying hard and believes that she can be admitted to her ideal university based on her own abilities. In this case, she is not afraid that others will squeeze out her place, so she keeps the information to herself and is reluctant to share it with others.
I just didn't expect that just sharing the information would make everyone so grateful.
When the class reunion ended, she received various gifts. Nothing was very valuable, and some were just a few tea eggs pickled at home. However, the thought put into these gifts could not be measured by value.
After the meal, everyone took out red plastic-covered notebooks, wrote blessings to each other, asked the other party to sign, and left a parting message.
This kind of message is usually a poem, a popular English sentence, a poem from Tagore's collection of poems, or a sentence about striving and striving, such as not fearing thorns or hardships, and working hard for a modern socialist society.
After returning from the class reunion, Fubao was invited by the educated youth at the educated youth site.
When she went there, all the educated youth were there except Sun Lina. They all pooled their money to buy a lot of delicious food and treated her to it.
Like her classmates, the educated youth were also grateful to her.
Without the review materials she provided, we would have been completely clueless. She really helped us this time.
Of course, the one who is most grateful to Fubao is Su Wanru. Su Wanru looks at the little Fubao. Although she is Fubao's teacher, she feels that it is Fubao who changed her life.
After the ecstasy these days, she calmed down and sometimes even vaguely remembered what Fubao said to her when she was most desperate and helpless.
I didn’t pay much attention to that sentence at the time. A desperate person would think it was just a powerless consolation, but now thinking about it, it seemed like a sign, a foreshadowing.
Her heart twitched slightly, and she suddenly realized something, and couldn't help but look at Fubao again.
Fubao is almost eighteen years old. His long dark black hair is tied into two braids and hangs down from his ears. He has bangs in front of his forehead. His hair is black and soft, which makes his skin look white and translucent, like fine milk. In this bright and delicate scene of black hair and snow-white skin, his pair of clear black eyes are even more clear and charming. The little nose that is gently upturned is cute and adorable, and the slightly thin and soft cherry lips are hooked into a gentle smile, which makes people feel soft and comfortable in their hearts at first sight, as if a spring breeze is blowing on their faces in March.
This girl is beautiful, really beautiful. She is stunning at first sight, but this kind of stunningness makes people feel warm and fond of her. They will feel happy and comfortable from the bottom of their hearts without any discomfort.
Even though they are both women, there will be no jealousy, as if a girl like Fubao is supposed to be like this.
Such a lucky girl is completely different from an ordinary girl.
Fubao and Gu Shengtian finally set off to the capital to attend university on the last day of August. Early in the morning, Chen Youfu found two ox carts and took the educated youth who had been admitted to the university and Fubao, Gu Shengtian and others to the city in one go. After arriving in the city, they transferred to a bus.
The car swayed on the country road for several hours. Along the way, everyone felt carsick, uncomfortable, excited, and had all kinds of emotions.
After four hours of driving, we finally arrived in the city.
In the city, they changed trains, and at the train station, they were about to go their separate ways.
Fubao and Gu Shengtian were admitted to universities in the capital. The admission scores for universities in the capital were relatively high. Several educated youth did not dare to apply, and most of them took the exams to ordinary universities in the province or neighboring provinces to be safe.
After saying goodbye to Gu Wanru and the others and agreeing to keep in touch through correspondence, Fubao and Gu Shengtian carried their luggage into the train station.
The train at that time was still a green-skinned can train. Fubao and Gu Shengtian looked at the crowded train station for a long time and finally figured it out. The two bought tickets and finally caught up with the train, carrying large and small bags.
I found my seat in the narrow lane, put my luggage away, and finally sat down with relief.
After Gu Shengtian piled the large bags on the luggage rack, he took out an enamel pot and said, "I'll get you some hot water so we can soak the pancakes."
Fubao was carsick before and didn't dare to eat anything, so his stomach felt empty. Now, after hearing what Gu Shengtian said, his stomach growled and he nodded quickly: "Well, I'll take out the tea eggs again. We can still eat them with the tea eggs."
Gu Shengtian took the enamel pot and went to get some hot water. The train compartment was filled with noise as passengers around him played cards and laughed in different accents.
With a long and low whistle, the train started to move with a clang.
The sound of a broadcast came to my ears, and this time it was a Peking Opera model play.
Fubao leaned against the iron window of the carriage and looked out. Her position was very good and she could see the buildings of the city in the distance.
There are red buildings of five or six stories high, and buildings of more than ten stories high. There are buses and tractors running on the road, and a dense army of bicycles.
All these scenes moved rapidly backwards, and after a moment, they quickly disappeared behind a grove of trees.
This was Fubao's first time stepping into a city, his first time seeing high-rise buildings, his first time experiencing the prosperity of a city, and his first time sitting on a train.
Everything is a fresh experience.
Her new life is about to begin.
