Aunt Wang carefully prepared several of her signature dishes.
It was Wen Ying's first time to have dinner with the Jiang family.
Needless to say, Lin Lin has more contact with Wen Ying, and now she is also more familiar with Xie Qian. She is not so restrained in front of Xie Qian that her face gets hot while eating.
Lin Lin's mother-in-law is Vice Principal Guo Xia. Although Wen Ying is not familiar with her, she had seen her in school in her previous life.
The only people Wen Ying had little contact with were Lin Lin's father-in-law Jiang Xuekun and her husband Jiang Youjia. When she met these two people by chance while taking extra classes at Jiang's house, she just greeted them politely. Both Jiang's father and son were very busy and had no time to chat with Wen Ying.
Jiang Xuekun had no objection to having one more person at the dinner table. It was just a small matter of adding an extra set of bowls and chopsticks. Although the little girl looked quite plump, it would not bankrupt the Jiang family.
Jiang Youjia was secretly observing Wen Ying.
Wen Ying was very well-mannered when eating, and there was nothing wrong with her manners. She didn't smack her lips, nor did she use her chopsticks to stir the food on the plate. She only picked what she liked.
After a meal, the area in front of Wen Ying was clean, without a drop of oil or a grain of rice.
It seemed like Wen Ying was always paying attention, trying not to be rude in front of others, but if you say she was reserved and cautious, she was also quite natural and relaxed.
The Jiang family doesn't talk while eating, but likes to sit in the living room after dinner. The family eats some fruit and then talks about what happened recently, both work and life.
During this period, the only thing Wen Ying said was to praise Aunt Wang's cooking skills and thank Lin Lin for inviting her to dinner.
Jiang Youjia didn't find any fault. No matter how you looked at it, Wen Ying's words and actions were very graceful and generous, and she was not stingy with her praise for her host... Until the after-dinner chat, Guo Xia suddenly asked Wen Ying:
"You and Xie Qian set up a stall in the night snack street, aren't you just trying to earn some pocket money? I heard your little business is booming, and you're planning to host a food festival with the neighborhood office, and it's even alarmed the school."
Qin Jiao was responsible for contacting the school.
Qin Jiao is very efficient and has already communicated with the school.
As the vice-president of a provincial key university, Guo Xia has a lot of things to do on a daily basis, but she still knows who the influential figures in the school are.
Qin Jiao is one of the prominent figures in the provincial key universities. I heard that her family is well-off and she is very diligent and serious in her studies. A key university is the minimum requirement for Qin Jiao. Such students will fail to perform well if they do not apply to famous universities.
When Guo Xia heard that some students were starting a business in the night snack street, she thought that this was what Xie Qian and Wen Ying were doing. It happened that Wen Ying stayed at Jiang's house for lunch, so Guo Xia asked about it.
Wen Ying smiled and said, "So you already knew. Well, the idea of setting up a stall initially was just to make some pocket money during the summer vacation. My friends were very interested and wanted to join us. The neighborhood office took good care of us because we were students, and our night snack stall did make some money, so we thought, why not do something more meaningful!"
What is more meaningful?
In the eyes of most parents and teachers, it is not worth encouraging students to set up stalls to make money.
A student’s task is to study. Now they waste their time on making money and delay their studies. Compared with the length of their entire life, earning a few thousand or tens of thousands of yuan is just a small profit.
But if one gains something more important than money in the so-called "entrepreneurship" process, or even if because of this entrepreneurial experience, one learns to cherish the hard-earned learning conditions... Guo Xia will be more supportive.
The students in the provincial key schools have diverse family backgrounds. After graduating from high school, some of these children will attend famous domestic universities, while others will study abroad. Since the students' parents have no objection and Wen Ying can indeed provide positive reasons, Guo Xia will not be an obstacle.
"Then do as you wish. Young people will have the opportunity to correct their mistakes. Do your best. If you encounter difficulties, remember that the school has your back."
As one of the top-ranked key middle schools in Chengdu, Vice Principal Guo has the confidence to speak like this.
The gap between this school and ordinary high schools is definitely not only reflected in the admission rate.
Since Principal Guo said so, Wen Ying knew that the matter was relatively stable.
After obtaining the school's consent, convincing the street office, and contacting the TV station, everything is ready for the food festival, only the east wind is missing. Wen Ying's smile becomes even brighter. If she continues like this, opening a physical store, developing franchise stores, and becoming a CEO and reaching the pinnacle of life is just around the corner!
Hearing that the hamster was floating again, Xie Qian suddenly asked Guo Xia:
"Has the school arranged the time for this year's provincial key entrance exam?"
Guo Xia nodded. "August 14th, so you want to apply for the provincial key school? Xie Qian, if you're willing to transfer to Rongcheng, I can immediately approve your admission without taking the entrance exam."
Admission without examination.
This is how top students are treated.
For Wen Xuezha, the only thing he cares about is the date "August 14th".
Principal Guo said it very well, the school will always support them, the problem is that Wen Ying is not even a provincial key student!
Neither Guo Xia nor Lin Lin worried that Wen Ying would fail the entrance exam, but Wen Ying knew very well what she was capable of.
At this moment, she was in no mood to sit on the sofa and eat fruit and chat. Wen Ying turned to Xie Xueba for help: "Xie Qian, do you want to take a nap at noon? Otherwise, can you explain the test paper to me again?"
Loving to study is a virtue. Guo Xia and Lin Lin both smiled and told the two to go to the study room quickly.
Xie Qian stood up calmly and said, "Okay, let's review the questions you got wrong this morning."
Wen Ying was almost about to kowtow and bow to Xie Xueba on the spot.
What male god? This is not a male god at all. It is too vulgar to pursue his beauty. Right now, Xie Qian is clearly a living Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering!
Wen Ying limped up the stairs, and Xie Qian followed behind her.
Jiang Youjia remained silent, silently observing the interaction between Wen Ying and Xie Qian.
When he was alone with his wife Lin Lin, Jiang Youjia seemed to be hesitant to speak. The most terrifying thing was that he didn't find any fault with Wen Ying.
When going to bed at night, Jiang Youjia couldn't help but ask Lin Lin:
"When will Xie Qian return to the capital?"
Lin Lin rolled up the quilt and sat up. "What's wrong with you today? You kept nagging Xie Qian. If he had offended your cousin-in-law in any way, wouldn't it be enough for me to apologize to him? If you don't let Xie Qian live in the Jiang family, I will move out with Xie Qian tomorrow!"
Lin Lin also got angry.
There are so many big hotels in Chengdu. As long as you can afford it, there is no need to worry about not being able to find a place for Xie Qian to stay!
Jiang Youjia was almost scolded to death. He coaxed his wife for most of the night. If the family found the couple arguing, it was because of Xie Qian, and Jiang Youjia would definitely be in the wrong.
Jiang Youjia knew how much his father liked Xie Qian and he wished Xie Qian was the Jiang family's child.
Jiang Youjia spent most of the night trying to comfort them, feeling helpless: "How can I not be more careful? These two siblings are like they've been bewitched. There has to be someone who understands what's going on at home!"
——It’s really hard to be a man. You have to work hard but get no thanks. You get scolded and still have to bear the burden of life silently.
