Chapter 369 A Fire in Winter
"A loving mother is a spoiled child! My son finally agreed to study hard. Don't be so gentle with your words. Be a little stricter!"
Wu Shengli spoke earnestly and kindly to his wife about the matter.
Diao Yulian twisted her hands, looked back at the closed door, stamped her feet, and went to the kitchen with a cruel heart.
"Then what do you say we should do? Or should we really let Jiabao live in the school dormitory?"
Some high schools have strict regulations and students are locked up in school, going only between the dormitory, cafeteria and classroom every day.
Students are not allowed to go home until several weeks later.
How can this be called going to school?
It's like being in jail.
She felt a little reluctant to send Wu Jiabao to this school.
Those who don’t know about this model might think it is torture for parents.
At least for her, it must be very difficult not to see her Jiabao for ten days or half a month.
"You're so confused. Is your mood more important, or your son's future?"
Wu Shengli thought he had finally won back this time and spoke with his nose held high.
Diao Yulian couldn't stand the man's look, so she raised her leg and kicked him.
"Okay, then you can cover our son's accommodation expenses. Stop talking big and do something practical."
Wu Shengli choked.
“Also, now I have to find a way to stuff my son in there.
Many schools have already started, and if we don’t attend classes now, we’ll fall behind in our progress.”
Diao Yulian was really anxious, as if her butt was on fire, thinking about the connections that could be used.
She remembered that when she was taking makeup orders before, the father-in-law of one of the brides was the principal of a high school.
This relationship must be maintained.
"Yulian, take this money and use it first."
Wu Shengli called her and took out a wad of money from his inner pocket and stuffed it into her hand.
He earned this money from setting up a stall during the summer vacation.
Diao Yulian put the money in her pocket without hesitation and went out in a hurry.
Wu Jiabao pressed his ears against the wall, tears in his eyes.
After Wu Shengli went out, he shook his two big pussies fiercely.
If he hadn't been so incompetent, there wouldn't have been so many troubles.
This summer I went to Shenzhen and successfully entered the second line with a two-week border pass in my hand.
When he walked to the door of the seafood restaurant with his bag on his back, Lao Pan grinned at him.
At that moment, he was too embarrassed to say that he had failed the exam.
Fortunately, Lao Pan didn't ask him this question, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
In the evening, I was lying on the mat with Lao Pan and looking at the roof. The words in my mouth suddenly started to flow, and I kept talking.
Old Pan didn't interrupt and just listened.
Finally, he didn't have time to sleep in early the next morning, and was picked up by Lao Pan to go to the kitchen to work.
I wash and scrub all day long, and when I squat until I stand up, it feels like my spine is not my own.
After finally waiting until the store closes at night, I rush to the seafood market to buy ingredients for the next day before I even sit down.
They were busy until the early morning, and the two spinning tops finally stopped.
In the evening, Lao Pan's back pain came back. When he was helping to apply the medicated oil, he saw that there was a plaster on Lao Pan's shoulder.
At that moment, he seemed to see through this the calluses on his mother's palms and the wrinkles at the corners of his father's eyes.
After working in the food stall for more than a week, my face shrunk a dozen times.
His skin was dark, his teeth were white, and his whole body was marinated with seafood.
Finally, my border pass expired and I had to return to Beijing.
Lao Pan bought some food and sent him to the station. On the platform, he said to him:
"It's up to you to decide how you want to live your life. If... you fail the exam again, just follow me."
Wu Jiabao cried like a dog in front of many people at the station.
He pulled his mind away from memories and rummaged under the pillow.
He quickly tied a piece of cloth on his forehead, with the word "struggle" embroidered on it. This was what Old Pan stuffed into his hand before he left.
After eating the fruit, I buried my head in the pile of books.
…
Diao Yulian finally succeeded in packing up Wu Jiabao and sending him back to school.
After bidding farewell to the short autumn and the winter that was so cold that I just wanted to stay at home, the Spring Festival of 1988 soon arrived.
Xie Yi is very busy in his new unit, and Lin Xiaotong is also preparing for promotion next year.
Gao Xiulan is doing very well in the night market, while Xie Dajiao is still living a leisurely life in the factory.
Chengzi was completely obsessed with Olympiad mathematics. Zhou Zhixi felt that he had found a good seedling, and whenever he had free time, he would be taken to Zhou's house to do exercises.
Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. The young couple from the Xie family are still not as good as Zhou Zhixi and Tong Wan in mathematics.
Lin Xiaotong saw this and after discussing with Gao Xiulan, she bought two Ililan brand down jackets for Zhou Lao Da and his wife.
A brand from Beijing, it has good thermal insulation performance and is very popular.
Down jackets are also more practical. Now a good piece of clothing can be worn for several years without any problem.
Before, Xie Da Jiao had a bit of chronic cold legs, so the young couple bought her a long coat to wear, and she no longer had leg pain when she slept at night all winter.
The color is not fancy, just a simple black.
After Zhou Zhixi received it, he saw that his and Tong Wan's were the same style and color, and he felt very happy.
When Hu Tou came home from get out of class that day, he ran into his father with his teeth bared, and foolishly called out "Uncle".
Successfully obtained a stir-fried chestnut.
Er Nengzi took the package from Xie Yi as if he was making a contact, stuffed it into his stomach, and hid it quietly in the house.
Now the Spring Festival Gala has become a must-see program for everyone to watch after the New Year’s Eve dinner.
This year, the Xie family is not the only one in the compound that has a large color TV. The sound of firecrackers can be heard in the alley.
During this year's Spring Festival Gala, in the warm main room of the Xie family's house, only a family of five and two cats were squatting in front of the TV.
That night, the song "A Fire in Winter" ignited people's lively nerves.
Gao Xiulan looked at the singer on TV, who was 1.9 meters tall, had a signature curly hair, and an exceptionally handsome face, and words of praise came out of her mouth.
"This young man is really good-looking."
Lin Xiaotong and Chengzi nodded.
It is really pleasing to the eyes, and the key is that the song is sung very nicely.
Next came another song, "Clouds of Hometown", which expressed the voices of countless wanderers.
Even those with shallow eyes shed tears.
This person became an instant hit after the Spring Festival Gala and became a household name.
The letters I received came one after another like snowflakes.
The next morning when people go out to pay New Year's greetings, they always hum a few lines.
Ernengzi bravely put on a pair of jeans with a hole in the knee, and was not afraid of the cold at all.
After fiddling with his cauliflower head in front of the mirror for a while, he walked out of the house with a swagger.
He came face to face with Jin Qiaofeng, who had murderous intent on her face.
"You little bastard, you're dressed like a beggar on New Year's Day!
I think you're itching for trouble! Why don't you go back and change it quickly? It really hurts your eyes!"
"Oh my god, didn't I imitate a famous Spring Festival Gala star? Why don't you give me some praise?"
"You still dare to talk back? If you really don't want your handcart anymore, forget it."
As usual, the Xie family went to the park to take pictures, and they ran into Ernengzi, who was running around at the entrance of the alley with a cauliflower head on his head.
Guoqing wore a hat and put his hands in his pockets, his face flushed with smiles.
The Chinese New Year is so lively!
