Chapter 296 College Entrance Examination 5 Together with Qi Changxiao, we went to take the exam...
Xiao Wei has always had a headache when facing Yao Ningning.
She is a social butterfly. Even with someone like Editor-in-Chief Yao, she can shamelessly build relationships with him and strike up a conversation with him. But with Yao Ningning, she always hits a wall.
This woman is very timid. If someone talks to her loudly, she will hide and close the door, isolating herself from the world.
Even if she coaxed her softly, it was of no use. Yao Ningning would just stare at her with wide eyes and remain silent.
Xiao Wei really had no choice but to bite the bullet and give the clothes and toys she bought for her child, and explained her purpose.
Yao Ningning didn't want to waste time talking to her, so she picked up the child, picked up her things, locked the door and went out. Xiao Wei was confused and had to follow her out. She followed her all the way to the government compound, only then did she realize that Yao Ningning had brought her directly to see Uncle Fan Wen.
Who said this woman was stupid? She looked very smart, but she pushed things she didn't want to agree to directly onto the man.
Originally, they were relatives on the man's side, and it was none of her business.
Although Xiao Wei was unhappy, he had to admit that if Yao Ningning didn't want to get into trouble with him, this was the wisest thing to do.
Since she was already here, she didn't want to make a wasted trip, so she had to bite the bullet and explain her purpose to Uncle Fan Wen.
Uncle Fan Wen was very annoyed when he saw his wife carrying their son out in the hot weather just for this trivial matter at his second sister-in-law's house.
I quickly poured Yao Ningning a glass of water, took the child over and asked her to sit down: "You take a rest, I'll go talk to her outside."
Yao Ningning nodded, silently picked up the newspaper on the table, and lowered her head to read it. She hoped that one day she could find a job like this, which would be decent and leisurely, and she could also read the books she wanted.
Her second sister asked her to review for the college entrance examination, but in fact she had no idea at all. With her half-baked level, there was really no hope.
Of course, the second sister also persuaded the eldest sister and Mengmeng, but unfortunately, neither of them had much free time. The eldest sister had to take care of two children alone and also work as a tailor and embroiderer to make money. Mengmeng already had two children and was now pregnant with her third child, so she had no energy to read.
She didn't want her second sister to be sad and alone, so she had to bite the bullet and watch the movie with her.
As for science, she started to have difficulty with the junior high school part, but she was fine with liberal arts, and could read and recite while holding her child.
Her second sister said that she would give her a test paper in a few days. This is really asking for her life. What if she doesn’t do well in the test and her second sister is sad? What should she do?
Alas, I can only push myself a little harder and go back and rewrite it again.
Fortunately, Uncle Fan Wen's work is not busy, and he goes home to take care of the children after get off work every day. The couple's life is peaceful, which is a blessing in her unfortunate life.
Now his second brother is coming back, and no one knows what the future will be like. I hope his second brother is someone who can take on responsibilities. His second sister-in-law is a bit annoying, and it would be nice if someone could take care of her.
Just as I was daydreaming, Uncle Fan Wen came in, holding the child. He closed the door and said, "I asked her to take the things back. You handled it very well this time. If you encounter someone like me next time, bring her directly to me. You must not accept the things. I am a public official. Remember this."
Yao Ningning nodded, stood up, picked up the child, and prepared to go back.
Uncle Fan Wen quickly pulled her aside and said, "Wait a minute, I remember I have an umbrella. Take it and go back. Don't let it get damaged by the sun."
Yao Ningning smiled rarely, very shyly, with her cheeks flushed. The bright sunlight from outside the window cast a hazy light on her facial features, making her look like a young girl in love, very shy.
Uncle Fan Wen couldn't help himself, he stood up and kissed her: "Walk slowly on the road, be careful of the bicycles passing by."
"Yeah." Yao Ningning went back with an umbrella. When she got outside on the road, she found that Xiao Wei had not left and was still carrying those things.
Xiao Wei came up with a smile and said, "Ningning, Uncle Wen said he couldn't put it in his office, so he asked me to give it to you."
Yao Ningning didn't believe it. Uncle Fan Wen had just said that he couldn't accept it. She ignored Xiao Wei T, walked quickly across the street, and got on the bus directly.
Xiao Wei stood there in a daze and could only sigh silently. Forget it, just leave it for my own children.
A few days later, someone from the Tan family came and found the head of the local relevant department. They arranged for Fan Wenzhong to work in the Post and Telecommunications Bureau and directly made him a leader in a branch.
Xiao Wei was very happy. Not only was it close to home, but it was also decent. In the future, if he wanted to mail something to relatives and friends, they could help him.
She came to Yao Ningning with the things again, but was turned away this time. Yao Taotao came to ask Yao Ningning a question, and Xiao Wei quickly put on a smile and said something nice, asking Yao Taotao to persuade Yao Ningning to accept the things.
Yao Taotao advised, "Sister-in-law, why are you doing this? I've already helped you with the matter, do you really have to make my brother-in-law make a mistake? I know you have no ill intentions, so I won't say anything to you this time. Next time if you have any problems, just come to me directly, don't bother my sister. She's timid, and you might scare her into something bad, and you won't be able to take responsibility."
Xiao Wei smiled awkwardly: "Then this thing——"
"Take it away. My brother-in-law is willing to help not out of brotherhood, but because he doesn't want you to bother my sister anymore. Everyone knows what your mother-in-law has done. When your husband breaks off relations with her, then you can come and be friends with my brother-in-law again." Yao Taotao's words were unpleasant to hear, but she had to say them no matter how unpleasant they were.
Xiao Wei had no choice but to take the gift and go back.
The next day, he complained to Yao Zhizhi, "You said, they helped me with something, but they refused to accept my things. Doesn't that make me seem unworldly?"
Yao Zhizhi guessed that she would think so. In the minds of this kind of people, all the operating rules of society are based on human relationships.
If you don't let her send the gift, she won't be happy about saving money. Instead, she will feel uncomfortable and wonder if you are angry, or if you think the gift is not good enough, or if you gave her too little.
This may have been possible in the past years, but not necessarily in the future, especially after the market economy is liberalized. In some industries, one can reap the benefits of the times by using connections, but in other industries, this may not be the case.
For example, if you are working in the field of technological products, no matter how many gifts you give, they cannot create a product out of thin air. Even if they force you into that position, over time, the products will not keep up, and the company will go bankrupt sooner or later, and you will be the one who suffers.
Yao Zhizhi felt it necessary to have a good talk with Xiao Wei. After all, they were colleagues in the same unit, and they would have some feelings for each other when they met. No matter how much she had annoyed Xiao Wei over the years, at least the incident with the Gu family showed that Xiao Wei's values were still correct, and she was just brainwashed by the idea that human relationships were more important than anything else.
So Yao Zhizhi took her to her office and explained to her earnestly why Uncle Fan Wen could not accept this thing.
Xiao Wei really didn't expect this: "Yes, the Gu family has a grudge against you. His wife's second sister has always had a good relationship with you. The Gu family might keep an eye on him and report him."
"I'm glad you know. Don't send me off again in the future." Yao Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to take care of her own things.
When Xiao Wei stood up, he noticed a high school Chinese textbook on her desk and suddenly became curious: "Why are you all learning high school knowledge on your own?"
Yao Zhizhi smiled and said, "You never stop learning. You can take a look when you have time. Who knows, maybe the college entrance examination will be resumed someday."
Xiao Wei was too lazy to read it, and he didn't believe that the college entrance examination would be reinstated. He sighed and said, "I don't have the energy. I'm already annoyed to death by those two naughty monkeys in my family."
Yao Zhizhi didn't say anything else. She had already reminded him to this extent, so no one could blame her in the future.

Yao Weihua contacted Lu Henian in Hong Kong and asked him to help contact the school.
We will send Yang Xiaoqian there after the school is decided. Today, a friend in Guangdong called and said that the school has already made arrangements. She can go there now to adapt for a while and learn Cantonese so that she won't be unable to understand anything when school starts in September.
After all, many teachers there teach in Cantonese.
As for her residence, she lived with Yao Weihua and others. There was a nanny and a driver at home, so when the adults were busy with work, there was someone to take care of Yang Xiaoqian.
Yao Zhizhi had just returned from get off work, and Yao Weihua quickly spoke, finally asking, "The two kids want to come over and play with me for a couple of days. Is that okay with you?"
"Third brother!" Yao Zhizhi was helpless. Third brother did mean well, but she was very worried about the security issues in Hong Kong.
Yao Weihua quickly reassured her: "Second sister is going with us. She is the stepmother, so it is reasonable for her to send Yang Xiaoqian there. She has four children at home and she only stares at the stars and the moon. What are you worried about?"
"Isn't this bad? Won't Guanying and the others be sad?" Yao Zhizhi disagreed. Either they should take all of them over, or no one should be taken. What's the point of only taking her family's children?
As an uncle, you can't be so partial. Even if you are emotionally closer to Xingxingyue, you should treat them equally when it comes to things like traveling.
Yao Weihua was helpless: "Isn't it because there are too many children to take care of? How about you come with me?"
"No, that won't work. I have an exam soon." Although Yao Zhizhi had been preparing for several years, she had learned it all by herself. She had no idea whether she could stand the test of the teacher who set the questions.
Besides, she still has to work, and she originally takes time to read every day, so how could she be willing to go out and play?
Yao Weihua was speechless: "I don't care, I promised the two children, you can figure it out yourself, as many people as you want can go, I have money."
Yao Zhizhi was speechless. Why did she have to tease the kids at this time? Couldn't she wait until she finished the exam?
This was the first time the brother and sister had a conflict after knowing each other for so many years.
They rolled their eyes at each other while eating, which made Qi Changxiao laugh.
He thought for a moment and said, "Why don't I go? I've been to junior high school for a few days, so my foundation is better than yours. I'll just go for a few days, it's okay."
"Then take the second sister's child with you." Yao Zhizhi didn't want to make her third brother sad or disappoint the child. Since Qi Changxiao was going with her, she no longer insisted.
In the end, three adults and seven children set off in a grand procession.
Yao Weihua warned: "Although the policy has been relaxed now, Hong Kong has not yet returned to China. Going there is considered leaving the country. If anyone asks you, just say I took the children to visit my eldest brother in Northeast China. Don't mention going to Hong Kong."
Yao Zhizhi understood, so she sent them to the train station and returned alone.
There is nothing missing from the house, but it suddenly feels empty and lonely.
She regretted every day that followed, regretting that she couldn't resist her third brother's coaxing and that she didn't go with him.
Fortunately, Shen Qingwan came to help her cook and accompany her to review every day, otherwise, she would really be lonely and moldy.
Half a month later, the three adults and six children all returned, only Yang Xiaoqian stayed in Hong Kong.
Yao Weihua was walking in front holding a soft and chewy little dumpling, looking extremely happy.
This is the princess dress he personally picked out for Xiaoyueliang. It is so beautiful. He can't wait to see his little sister's reaction.
When I got home, I looked around and saw his lonely little sister by the lake.
I walked closer and took a look. Hey, what's going on? Why is he hugging his knees and staring blankly?
He quickly put Little Moon down and whispered, "Go, gently, go over and hug Mom. Mom misses you."
Little Moon couldn't get light at all. Like a butterfly, she flew to her mother's back, shouting, "Mom, we're back. Hong Kong is so beautiful. Let's go together next time!"
Yao Zhizhi thought she was hallucinating. It had been more than half a month, and she missed her child so much that she was going crazy.
I looked up and saw, wow, whose little princess is this? She’s so pink and cute.
She quickly stood up, took a few steps forward, squatted down and opened her arms. The little guy was like a deep-water torpedo, knocking his mother to the ground.
The grass was filled with the cheerful laughter of the mother and daughter. Little Xingxing beside them was very envious, but unfortunately he was a grown-up child, a boy at that, and it was not easy for him to be so close to his mother.
He could only stare at his uncle and chuckle, thinking that he also wanted to be a deep-water torpedo.
The grandfather who rushed over after hearing the news was so shameless that he competed for the child's uncle's favor, shouting, "I come, I come, hit me."
Amidst the laughter and joy, Qi Changxiao silently thought that he must perform well in the college entrance examination and get into a good university. Then he would be happy and go to Hong Kong with his wife.
Time flies, and by October, Yang Xiaoqian had adapted well to Hong Kong.
For children of this age, as long as they have enough money, it is not difficult to integrate into a new circle.
Although her classmates looked down on her identity as a northern girl, she was really rich and wore the best clothes and used the best things. Who wouldn't envy her?
When the classmates asked around, they found out that his uncle was the famous Yao Weihua!
Within a month, Yang Xiaoqian had become friends with her classmates.
Lu Henian sent photos of his classmates celebrating her birthday in a villa to comfort Yang Shuming.
There was nothing much to say about Yang Shuming. It was definitely a blessing from his ancestors that he could be with Yao Miaomiao.
It would be hard to find a wife like this in the wife's family or in the brother-in-law's family.
As soon as he got home from get off work, he went to T to read with Guanying, so as to make Yao Miaomiao happy.
A few days later, news came from the government that the college entrance examination had been resumed, and it was even published in the newspapers.
Just two months later! The moment Xiao Wei saw the newspaper, he was stunned. Editor-in-Chief Yao had been right!
Chu Lingyi was also dumbfounded. No wonder Yao Zhizhi was reading middle school textbooks early in the morning. Did she have inside information, or was she really preparing for a rainy day and had a longer-term vision than her?
Not clear.
What a pity. She originally wanted to compete with Yao Zhizhi and looked for her middle school textbooks. However, she forgot about it because of Xu Wei's incident. Then she got married and had a daughter, so she couldn't take care of it anymore.
Preparing now would just be a last-minute effort and the chances are slim. Anyway, let's give it a try.
In a blink of an eye, it was December. Yao Zhizhi got up early, greeted the rising sun, jumped on the back of the bicycle, and went to take the exam with Qi Changxiao.
