It’s the same old thing.
Wen Ying didn't feel much disappointed.
Because she was used to it in her previous life.
Ms. Chen Ru only believes in her own judgment and is certain of her own judgment. Before the high school entrance examination results are announced, no matter what Wen Ying says, Chen Ru will not believe it.
Wen Ying didn't want to waste her saliva anymore, so she simply closed her eyes and pretended to take a nap.
The city is not big, and it only takes a short while to get to Wen Ying's house from the hospital.
Wen Ying and her family live in the staff building of Wen Dongrong's unit. The house was built in 1999. Although the Wen family bought another house later, they never moved. It was not until 2019 that Wen Ying heard that her parents had not moved out.
What is there to be nostalgic about in an old community with 20-year-old houses? The various supporting facilities are not as good as those in new communities. Wen Ying feels that her parents are not nostalgic, they really think that living here means having status!
Even though Wen Dongrong is not at home, the Wen family is still very lively.
The living room was packed with people, all relatives of the Wen family.
When they saw Wen Ying coming back, they all came forward to show concern for her, even her eldest cousin Wen Kai was there.
Today is Saturday, it's normal for adults not to go to work, but Wen Kai, the prospective candidate, shouldn't be here!
"Brother Kai, you don't have class today?"
Wen Kai pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose. "This morning the school held a pre-exam mobilization meeting for us. We were allowed to play for half a day in the afternoon, but we still had to go back to school for self-study in the evening. Are you feeling better? I've been wanting to go to the hospital to see you. As you know, our class teacher won't approve such leave!"
Wen Kai is telling the truth.
Small cities definitely cannot compete with big cities in terms of teaching resources such as teachers, so schools can only compete in management. Wen Kai and Wen Ying go to the same middle school, Wen Kai is in the high school department and she is in the junior high school department.
Wen Ying naturally knew how strict the school was, especially for someone like Wen Kai who was about to take the college entrance examination. It was really impossible to ask for leave with the excuse that his cousin was sick.
"I know, Brother Kai, you care about me. I appreciate your kindness."
After Wen Ying finished speaking, Wen Kai couldn't help but laugh.
The secret rivalry between her parents' generation had nothing to do with Wen Ying and Wen Kai. Wen Ying remembered that she had a good relationship with her cousin since childhood, until Wen Kai went to college in another city and Wen Ying entered the hard high school life and had no time to take care of herself, the contact between the brother and sister became less and less - if she followed the life trajectory of her previous life, that would only happen in the future, and she and Wen Kai were not strangers yet.
Wen Kai really cared about her, and deliberately left the adults alone and went into her room to say some encouraging words to her.
Every time Wen Kai sees the furnishings in his cousin’s room, he gets a headache.
This doesn't look like a girl's room at all. There is not a trace of girlish atmosphere. There are no colorful star stickers on the walls, no movie posters, the bed sheets are plain, the wardrobe is plain, and the old-fashioned desk is filled with textbooks and teaching reference books. There are no girlish magazines. The only novels that appear on Wen Ying's bookshelf are the Four Great Classics, plus a copy of "How the Steel Was Tempered"!
Second uncle and second aunt are too strict with Wenying.
Wen Kai knew that his cousin loved reading novels very much, and was willing to save her living expenses to buy or rent books, but she never dared to bring the novels home because her second aunt would tear them up if she did. So Wen Ying left the books she bought with her classmates. Wen Kai, who went to the same school as Wen Ying, was also the mobile library for Wen Ying to store her books.
Wen Kai felt that this room did not look like a girl's boudoir, and Wen Ying thought the same.
As soon as Wen Ying entered the bedroom of her teenage years, she was overwhelmed by the feeling of suffocation.
Her mother Chen Ru controls everything from the room furnishings to her interests and hobbies. She even has requirements on what clothes she wears every day and which shoes to match them with her clothes... She has a really good mental quality because she has been able to live in such an environment for more than ten years without being driven crazy!
"Brother Kai, do you have something to say to me? Just sit anywhere."
Thinking about it further, Wen Ying was afraid that she would turn around and run out of the house, so she had no choice but to talk to Wen Kai to divert her attention.
Wen Kai organized his words, "Have you ever thought about staying in our current school to study in high school? I know you didn't do well in the high school entrance exam this time, and I also know that Second Uncle and the others want to use their connections to send you to a good high school in Rongcheng. Wen Ying, good high schools teach well, but they may not be suitable for us. You will have to adapt to a new environment when you go there. I am so worried about you!"
Okay, it may not be suitable for you.
There has always been controversy over whether to be the head of a chicken or the tail of a phoenix.
Wen Kai really knew her well. In her previous life, she went to Chengdu to study in high school. She couldn't keep up with the teaching progress and had to study very hard.
God gave her a chance to live again. Wen Ying has been thinking about her aunt Chen Li and uncle Deng Shangwei these days, and has not thought about her own future.
Wen Kai's words touched upon the thoughts that she had been avoiding.
What should she do?
She could follow the trajectory of her previous life again, attend the same high school, go to the same university, refuse her parents' arrangement to take the civil service exam, go to Shanghai alone, work her way up from an assistant to a formal lawyer, meet and fall in love with He Zhen at work, work hard for a few years to gain a foothold in Shanghai and buy a house... This kind of life is not bad, but Wen Ying looked at the four great classics on the desk that were almost torn apart, and felt that she might have other choices.
He Zhen is probably in love with his senior in England now, why should he hang himself on this tree!
If she had stopped being a lawyer and had the chance to meet and fall in love with He Zhen, then they probably really were destined to be together.
"Wen Ying?"
Wen Kai woke Wen Ying from her distraction, "Please think about what I said. If you have made up your mind, your brothers will support you. If you want to stay and go to high school, I will help you persuade your uncle and aunt!"
"Brother Kai, you are so kind to me. Thank you. No matter where I go to high school, I will always be grateful for your kindness."
