Mr. and Mrs. Qiu Yuling did not actually take Li Tunan's academic problems as seriously as everyone imagined.
Even when she was very young, her teacher suggested that she skip a grade, but she refused at the time. She said that she did not want her child to be forced to make a choice, and that it would not be too late to make a decision when she herself felt that she was not fulfilled and wanted to reach a higher level.
So Li Tunan was indeed quite relaxed during his primary school years. He even took frequent leave and travelled all over the country with his parents, but this did not affect his excellent final grades.
It was not until junior high school that one day she came home and said she wanted to take the college entrance examination early. After getting her parents' tacit approval, she arranged everything on her own, studied on her own, and took the exam, all in one go.
Everyone found it incredible, but also felt that it was as it should be, after all, her parents were so outstanding.
If other people's children grow up in such an environment full of praise, they will either become ignorant of the world or not allow themselves to make mistakes.
Thanks to the excellent relaxation of Qiu Yuling and her husband, Li Tunan had never had a similar feeling before.
It seems that whether she does well or not in the exams, her parents will accept it happily. On the contrary, they focus on taking her to broaden her horizons and expand her thinking, rather than blindly demanding that she have outstanding grades.
So before the college entrance examination, Qiu Wenqing made a special trip to her cousin's school to participate in intensive training, while her cousin Li Tunan was still as free and easy as ever.
I will never go to bed after nine o'clock.
There must be a day on the weekend when her parents put down their work and take her out to climb a mountain, swim in a lake, ride a horse, etc.
In this environment, Li Tunan did not regard grades as the most important thing. She just learned her mother's style of doing things imperceptibly.
No matter what I do, once I start, I will be extremely serious and responsible.
At this moment, her grandparents, uncle, aunt, and even her cousin were more excited than her.
Qiu Dashu squeezed in between the two girls and asked them, "If you want anything, just ask."
Qiu Wenqing was thinking very hard.
"Nannan wants to too. Tell me when you've made up your mind."
Li Tunan leaned back on the sofa and said, "Hey, it's no use telling you this. I need to discuss this with my mom."
"What's the matter? Tell me, maybe I can help you convince your mother."
"No, I'll say it myself. My mom isn't the kind of person who's unreasonable. If she disagrees, there must be a reason why it's not feasible. There's no need for anyone else to encourage her. I'll listen to her."
She had blind trust and love for her mother. Except for the time when she was very young and asked her second aunt to help persuade Qiu Yuling to go to her second uncle's house, she almost never disobeyed him afterwards.
And even if her ideas were unreasonable, her mother did not simply reject them. Instead, she treated herself as an adult and exchanged information with her on an equal footing. After analyzing the pros and cons, she let her make her own decision.
"Oh, I'm so envious of my sister Nannan. My aunt is so open-minded." Qiu Wenqing felt that his parents were pretty good, but they still couldn't compare with his cousin's family.
"Don't dare let your mother hear you say this. She's quite capable and always grants you and your sister's every request..."
"I know, I know. You're really afraid of her. My mother has been bossing you around for half your life."
"What do you know? This is called a harmonious family brings prosperity. How can it be called tyranny..."
"What are you talking about? The hotel is booked. Let's go to Jinhui Restaurant. I asked Manager Ma to reserve a private room for us. My little sister has also called. Let's go, pack up and go over first. They will come over by themselves later."
Hearing this, Li Qingmei asked her, "Have you told her about Nan Nan's grades?"
"I told you, everything is as I expected. Hey, tell me if it's infuriating or not!"
Li Tunan burst into laughter, "Third aunt, it's not the first time you've known what my mother is like. Why are you so angry? She's just teasing you."
"Look at this girl, Mom. She's quite a smart girl. Don't worry, I won't be angry no matter who annoys your mom. Our relationship is even closer than that with your uncle.
Go to your room and change your clothes. I have prepared new clothes for you and Aomame, and they are in your respective rooms."
Qiu Wenqing pulled his lazy cousin and said, "Come on, Nannan, let's go back and change clothes. I guess we'll meet a lot of people today."
Wang Aihong prepared two sets of skirts for the two little sisters, one of which was a set of sister outfits, which made the two sisters look like real sisters.
Qiu Wenqing specifically took it and asked Li Tunan which one to wear, "...If you don't like wearing the same one, I'll wear the other one."
"Just wear the same outfit as this. I wish you were my real sister, haha."
"Okay, let's wear the same thing. By the way, what was it you told my dad earlier about asking Auntie?"
"Well, there was a talent scout the other day who wanted to cast me in a play. To be honest, I quite like this kind of thing. I think it's very novel. I've never been exposed to this before, so I want to give it a try."
"Ah? Will Auntie agree to this? But to be honest, Xiao Tianwang is really good. Let me tell you, many girls in our class like him..."
Everyone had been there for a while before Qiu Yuling and her husband strolled in.
"Third sister-in-law is really something. It's not a festival, but you still make such a big fuss. Nannan, Qingqing, this is my gift to you."
Qiu Yuling stuffed two envelopes over, and the two girls opened them. Screams instantly filled the box.
"What did you give them? They are so happy." Wang Aihong wanted to get closer to take a look, but she was too far away to see clearly.
"I bought some concert tickets and train tickets for some Hong Kong and Taiwan artists who were touring in mainland China."
"You..." You really know how to spoil your child.
At best, she would agree to buy them something and give them some money, or at worst, she would just accompany them for a walk.
Unlike my sister-in-law, she was so generous that she gave the two girls tickets and train tickets and let them go on their own.
"It's okay. Neither of them is the type to forget things. You have to believe in them. They are better and more independent than we think." Qiu Yuling handed the bag after emptying the envelope to the man behind her.
Pulling out a stool, she sat down with her third sister-in-law, "Do you want to see it? If you want to see it, we can go too."
"Ah? You want to monitor us?" Qiu Wenqing was not as calm as her cousin. When she heard this, she immediately felt that she was still in the hands of adults.
Wang Aihong glanced at her daughter and said, "Look how calm Nannan is. How can I let you go out alone if you are like this?"
She knew it was like this, and her happiness was slightly reduced, but she quickly put it behind her. "It's okay, Mom, it's better for you and Auntie to go. It saves us from having to take care of so many things ourselves, right, Nannan?"
