Hearing this, the smile on Yun Mo's face slowly faded, and her heart sank slightly.
Although she thought she did well in the unified examination, she was not absolutely sure whether she could be among the top ten in the city.
After all, she didn't know the strength of her competitors.
Seeing that Yun Mo was silent, Shan Zhenzhen couldn't help but laugh loudly, "Don't you even look at your own weight? You actually dream of being in the top ten in the city. Even if you were asked to study in high school for three more years now, you still wouldn't be able to be in the top ten."
Zeng Fang didn't want to see her friend lose face, so she turned around and argued with her, "Dan Zhenzhen, what are you so proud of? Even if Momo didn't make the top ten in the city, she must have done better than you, who ranked last!"
"So what if she scored better than me!" Shan Zhenzhen snorted, "Yun Mo made a bet with us at the beginning. If she didn't make it into the top ten, she would lose 100 yuan to me!"
"And me, mine is 30. If I had known, I should have bet 100."
"I'm 50, haha, this money is so easy to make!"
Listening to everyone's mockery and ridicule, Zeng Fang was as angry as a puffer fish. On the contrary, Yun Mo, the person involved, was as calm as an outsider.
It’s not that she doesn’t care about these voices at all, but she is not as skilled as others and she really has nothing to say.
The ranking of the unified examination results will not be released until tomorrow. In that era there were no computers, and the statistics of scores and rankings had to be done manually.
The Education Bureau has only counted the scores of the top ten, and the scores of the rest are still being counted.
Upon learning that she did not make it into the top ten, Yun Mo felt somewhat disappointed. She even had no appetite for lunch. It was not until after school in the afternoon that Zeng Fang mysteriously stuffed a thick envelope into her schoolbag.
"Momo, wait until we get home to watch it."
Yun Mo teased with amusement, "What? It's not about money? Are you afraid that I can't afford to lose?"
"You wish for it. I don't have the money to give you. Anyway, you can wait until you get home and see."
"Um."
After returning home, Yun Mo first fed Dabai and Erbai, then sat under the eaves and ate half a peach, and then went back to the house to take out the envelope from her schoolbag.
When Yun Mo saw what was in the envelope, she was completely stunned.
These were photos taken when they went out to play on Saturday. There was a thick stack of photos, all of which were of her and Ling Chuan.
The problem was, she had no idea when the photos were taken.
In the photos, she was always selecting and picking peaches, and Lingchuan's eyes were following her from beginning to end.
Even though the photo was not very clear, the affection and passion in the man's eyes were not concealed at all.
After looking at all the photos, Yun Mo's cheeks felt as if they were burning.
She picked out three relatively normal photos, went to the kitchen, and handed them to Ling Chuan who was making dinner.
"This is a photo taken by Fangfang. Please keep it."
Ling Chuan was obviously very happy after taking the photos. He looked at the three photos over and over again, as if he couldn't see enough. It was not until Yun Mo reminded him that the food in the pot was about to burn that he hurriedly put the photos into his pocket.
Seeing the man being so cautious as if he had found a treasure, Yun Mo's depressed mood suddenly faded a little.
After dinner, Ling Chuan went out. Yun Mo didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that he was going out to discuss business with Ling Jiang or Deng Zhi.
Yun Mo was wrong. Ling Chuan went out not to look for someone, but to go to the photo studio.
He paid to have the three photos Yun Mo gave him laminated and bought three beautiful frames to frame them.
When I was going home after buying the photo frame, I met Ling Jiang who had just returned at the door.
Ling Jiang smiled and said, "Anyway, there was nothing to do, so I didn't take a car and walked back slowly."
Seeing Ling Chuan holding three photo frames, he subconsciously asked, "Why did you buy so many photo frames?"
Ling Chuan took out the photo frame and handed it to the other party, "These are the photos that Momo and I took when we went out to play a few days ago."
Seeing the handsome and beautiful couple in the photo, Ling Jiang couldn't stop smiling, "Not bad, not bad, this photo is really well taken."
Ling Chuan also smiled and said, "I was worried that the photos would get damp after a long time, so I went to get them plastic surgery."
"Very good. Very good."
Ling Jiang returned the photo frame to his brother, feeling very relieved. "Seeing that your relationship with your brother and sister-in-law is getting better and better, my parents should be relieved if they know about it."
Ling Chuan didn't say anything, but his heart was filled with gratitude and joy.
Fortunately, Yun Shixian had chosen him, and he happened to need her, so everything was just right, as if it was destined. She would become his wife, and he was lucky enough to marry such a good wife.
After returning home and giving the remaining food in the pot to Ling Jiang, Ling Chuan took the photo frame back to his room.
One photo frame is placed at the bedside, and the remaining two are placed one on the coffee table and one on the round table.
The furnishings in the room were obviously the same as usual, except for three more photo frames, but it felt very different.
Her photo was in this room, just like she was actually in this room. The air seemed to be filled with her sweet fragrance. Ling Chuan lay on the bed, feeling indescribable satisfaction and happiness in his heart.
The unified examination is over, and Yun Mo doesn't have to work as hard as before. But after learning from Shan Zhenzhen that she did not make it into the top ten in the city, it still brought her some pressure and frustration.
If I can't even get into the top ten in the city, forget about getting into Peking University next year.
Yun Mo decided to continue doing the extra 5 test papers every day. Anyway, she had the spiritual spring water, so she could drink some when she was tired, which could refresh her mind and replenish her physical energy.
As for the walnut kernels and milk that Ling Chuan prepared for her, Yun Mo simply took them as a midnight snack before bed.
After Ling Chuan delivered walnuts and milk to his wife, he saw that the light was still on in his eldest brother's room, so he went over and knocked on the door.
"Chuanzi, you haven't slept yet?"
"No, Momo is still studying."
Hearing this, Ling Jiang glanced at the main room, with admiration and concern on his face, "It's not easy for my sister-in-law, she studies so late every day, you have to take good care of her and don't let her get tired."
"Yes, I will."
Compared to the room where Yun Mo and Ling Chuan live, Ling Jiang's room is much simpler.
He moved in suddenly, and Yun Mo didn't have time to buy furniture, so she picked out some old furniture from the Yun family that had been moved out before, and arranged it simply so that it could be lived in.
"Brother, are you used to living here?"
Ling Jiang smiled sheepishly, "I won't hide it from you, I'm really not used to it. I've lived for almost 30 years, and I've never lived in a house this big, nor have I slept on a Simmons bed. When I lie on it at night, I feel like I'm dreaming and uneasy."
Ling Chuan could understand his elder brother's feelings. He was not used to it when he first moved here and felt like he was living off his wife.
"Brother, how did you feel when you went outside to observe other people setting up stalls today?"
