"My eldest brother is 25 this year and will soon be 26. My eldest cousin is also 24 and will soon be 25, but my third cousin is only 23. It's okay to be a year or two later. Besides, my third cousin hasn't told me about this, which means he doesn't have this idea."
Xu Jianan frowned, "But if my brother could find a wife earlier, get married and have children sooner, and continue our family line, I would be able to relax more in the future."
Xu Manman widened her eyes. It turned out that this was what he thought. It was exactly the same as what she thought in her previous life.
Unfortunately, in her previous life, she was the eldest in the family and had no one to support her. She was the first to be pressured to get married and was tortured for several years.
They thought they were speaking very quietly, but the sleeper car was so small that Xu Jianmin, who was sitting opposite and playing chess with Chen Ming, had a hard time pretending not to hear. He couldn't help but slap his brother on the back of the head.
"You really care about me, don't you?! And want to continue the family line? Huh?"
Xu Jianan was slapped in the face and wanted to jump up, but he hit the bed board again. Under the double blow, he held his head and wailed. His miserable appearance made Xu Manman unable to bear to look at it.
But it must be said that Xu Jianan's speech opened up the minds of Chen Feng, who was listening. From then on, until Chen Ming's children were running around, he turned a deaf ear to his mother's words urging him to get married and enjoyed the life of a single aristocrat. But that's a story for later.
When she returned home and saw the notice which was obviously higher-end than the one they had received before, Xu Manman was very happy.
"That's great now. Jianguo can go to Beijing with us in the future, and he can even apply to attend school as a day student."
Xu Gang said, "I thought so too. Luckily, I kept a backup of the application I wrote to you last time. I wrote a copy according to it and signed it."
When he helped Chen Ming, he changed the content inside. Now that it was his second son's turn, he didn't want to bother with it anymore.
Just as Xu Jianguo was about to take it, Xu Gang raised his hand, turned around and handed it to his daughter, "Let Nannan take it. When the time comes, your sister will take you directly to the school to handle the paperwork, and you don't have to pass it on to her again."
Hearing his father say this, Xu Jianguo had no objection and even handed the admission letter to his sister, "Sister, take all of this. See if you need anything and I'll help you find it."
Xu Manman, who was suddenly assigned an important task, did not feel burdened at all. No matter what, she still had to take her brother to register.
"You need your high school diploma, and it's best to bring your household registration booklet as well. You also need to go to the street office to get a certificate."
Xu Jianguo took note of this and said, "Okay, I'll go get the street certificate later."
After finishing her brother's arrangements, Xu Manman looked at her father. "Dad, did uncle tell you that he will be transferred to Beijing at the end of the year?"
"Yeah, I mentioned it last time I called you. What's up, Nannan?"
Since the whole family was here, Xu Manman didn't beat around the bush. "Dad, Mom, Jianguo and I are both studying in Beijing now. It's the capital. After graduation, if nothing unexpected happens, we'll probably stay in Beijing. We have a house there anyway. Do you want to consider going to Beijing too?"
After listening to this, Xu Gang did not respond immediately. He was silent for a few seconds. It was only after Chen Meiyu secretly pinched him that he slowly spoke, "Actually, your mother and I have thought about this. You are alone over there with no one to rely on. Although Jianguo has passed the exam, our family is still separated.
The Capital Machinery Factory invited me before, and Dad wanted to contact them again. If everything goes well, it will probably be around the same time as your uncle and his family come to Beijing."
Xu Manman was a little stunned. She was thinking that if her parents couldn't convince her, she would try to persuade them again, but she didn't expect that her parents had already made plans in advance.
Xu Gang continued, "The tenants in our house are gradually moving out, and we should be able to take it back in two months. If Zichufang is not available, come and help us. If your mother and I go to Beijing, we will also take back the house in the family compound. Once we have the house over there ready, we'll have a place to stay when we come back."
Xu Manman nodded in agreement with her father, "Well, I'll tell him when I get back that there shouldn't be any problems with Zichu." Thinking of Chen Ming again, Xu Manman asked, "What about my uncle and third uncle's families? What will be the arrangements for the future?"
"Your third uncle will probably continue to stay in Hai City, and the house will be left to him to take care of. As for your uncle, his idea is not very clear yet, but Xiaofeng is still in school, so I guess we have to wait until Xiaofeng graduates before making any arrangements."
