It is well known that Wu Ni has excellent academic performance. Liu Ni and Lin Shugan are in the same class and school with her. They often go home to tell her that Wu Ni got first place in the exam again today and first place in the grade.
It's not that the others are useless, they just have different interests. The other girls combined don't have Wu Ni's passion and pursuit of academic studies.
She wanted to be a teacher and take the entrance exam for a secondary normal school. Her class teacher had also made it clear that as long as Wu Ni could maintain this stable state, the only spot in their school for admission to a secondary normal school would definitely go to Ma Wu Ni.
What does it mean to be admitted to a normal school?
Her household registration was transferred directly from the countryside to the city; she got a food grain book from then on and received a fixed amount of food coupons every month; the school covered all her tuition, books, accommodation and living expenses; after graduation, she was directly assigned a job and became a teacher, completely escaping from the countryside.
Old Lady Ma couldn't have wanted anyone else, but she just wanted Wu Ni to stay at home, and she even gave it the good name of keeping the smartest one at home so that she could give birth to smart great-grandchildren in the future.
Damn smart! You are the smartest one!
"Then I want Six...Four Ni!" Old Mrs. Ma originally wanted to choose Six Ni. The children below Five Ni were all attending school seriously. She wanted educated people, but she knew that Three Ni would never let her choose those children.
Moreover, the more books one read, the wilder one's mind becomes, making it difficult to control. Old Ma thought, forget it, it's better to marry Si Ni. Anyway, as long as San Ni is married off first, she won't be able to interfere in who stays at home later.
"Ah? Me?!" Si Ni's hand was still held by her third sister. She didn't feel any pain just now, but now it hurts so much when it touches the water! She was looking at her sister with tears in her eyes when she heard this.
She didn't even react, what did grandma want me to do?
Sanni rolled her eyes and said, "No, Sini has a boyfriend."
"What!"
This time, before Old Lady Ma could even jump up and down, a commotion broke out in the house. Lin Yulan had just been waiting outside for Ma Dexiang to come back with her. Ma Dexiang was holding a cotton shoe in his hand, and they heard this sentence as soon as they entered the house.
"You, you, where, where did you get this person from!" Lin Yulan walked over quickly and asked in a low voice.
This is not the old society anymore. It's not all about the decisions of parents and matchmakers. If you fall in love on your own, we will support you.
But in the countryside, the biggest fear is young people being impulsive and messing around. Especially the girls' parents, who would always remind them not to go out with anyone, not to go out to eat with anyone, etc., without the approval of both sets of parents.
Anyway, don't do either. If you want to date or fall in love, it's best to do it after meeting each other's parents. Otherwise, it's considered hooliganism.
However, there must be a reason why Sanni dared to say it.
Si Ni glanced at her third sister uncomfortably, and after receiving an encouraging look, she quietly explained to her parents,
"He's the son of our workshop director. His mother's family is from Hexia Village, and she married into the township. Her son works at the savings bank in the township."
Old Ma didn't believe it. "Why would they pick on a country girl like you when they're on the government payroll?"
Si Ni pursed her lips and lowered her head, feeling very aggrieved. Compared to that boy, she was actually a little inferior, but her own inferiority complex was different from others directly attacking her.
Sanni objected loudly, "Why not? Si Ni is pretty and hardworking. Last year, she was even recognized as an advanced worker in their textile factory. Our father is the village party secretary. How could we be worse off than ours? If you don't believe me, go ask around. How many aunties and grandmas in their factory are interested in Si Ni and want to introduce her to someone?"
Erni works in the textile factory. Sometimes when she meets Sanni, she gossips with her, saying that Sini can be called the flower of the factory!
Let’s talk about that boy again. Although he works in the village savings bank, he is just an ordinary clerk. His salary is not much higher than Si Ni’s. He gets a few more food coupons and some welfare benefits, and that’s it.
That boy only graduated from junior high school. Although Si Ni had never been to school, she was not illiterate. In addition, she was studying textile knowledge at night school. Who knows if she would make a big splash in this industry one day.
In Sanni's eyes, the young man who works peacefully in the savings bank is not worthy of her sister!
But Si Ni liked him, and they seemed to get along well, so San Ni couldn't say anything. She just kept it a secret for her at Si Ni's request. In fact, the two had been together for almost half a year.
Ma Dexiang hit his palm with a fist. He didn't hear anything else, but he heard the sentence "Our father is still the village party secretary."
"That's right! I'm the village party secretary after all, so how can my daughter be unworthy of a rural family? To put it bluntly, they're just country folk who don't need to farm. They're very different from city dwellers! What's so great about them?!"
"But, Si Ni, you should have told your parents about this earlier! At least we can be mentally prepared... Didn't your partner mention that we should visit each other?"
Si Ni nodded, then shook her head, which made Ma Dexiang very anxious!
"Why don't you say something!"
How could an eighteen-year-old girl not feel shy when her whole family is watching and discussing her partner?
After holding it in for a long time, she blushed and said, "...He did mention it, but I thought it was too early, so I didn't agree..."
"What's too early for this?" Lin Yulan glared at her, "Can this be delayed? Or do you not like that boy and don't plan to marry him in the future?"
"Why are you two dating if you're not getting married?" Ma Dexiang's eyes widened. "Si Ni, don't act like a hooligan!"
"Fourth sister, is my future brother-in-law not good-looking? I think my second brother-in-law looks a bit old..."
"Bah! I'll tell my second sister tomorrow! You're saying bad things about my second brother-in-law!"
"Ahhhh! Bani!! You are not allowed to give me a blanket today! I will definitely not let you hug my arm!!"
…
The topic has already strayed to Siberia. What the hell is going on? Old Ma and Old Ma stood together, disheveled in the wind. What were they about to say?
Oh, right! Marry Sanni off! It doesn't matter if Si Ni or anyone else stays home! Why are we all talking about Si Ni's dowry now?
Ma Dexiang and Lin Yulan, these two useless guys! Can they please listen to their parents' advice? Is there anyone who can pay attention to these two old fools?
Old Ma and Old Ma, one of them slammed the table, and the other hit the ground with their crutch, but no one paid any attention to them.
Or maybe it was because there were too many members of the Ma family, especially too many women. It was the middle of the night and it was so noisy that no one had a free ear to listen to them talking about things they didn't really want to hear.
Sanni also twisted the soft flesh on Sini's waist.
"Fortunately, you are still young and have to wait two years before getting married. Otherwise, I am afraid I won't have enough time to save money to buy you things."
"Third sister!"
