Chapter 286 They are a couple
Since writing that letter, Xie Zheyu wisely stopped writing any letters to Wu Shanshan.
He only got the fragments of information that Huang Ling told Tunan over the phone.
The longer they didn't contact each other, the more upset he became. When they met again, he could hardly speak.
After catching up with Wu Shanshan, Xie Zheyu didn't say anything and walked silently beside her. While the two people were not paying attention, he took two-thirds of the flyers in Wu Shanshan's hand and put them together with his own.
"It's heavy. I'll return it to you later." Xie Zheyu whispered.
Wu Shanshan didn't want to argue with him on the street, so she agreed.
"How did you do in the final exam?" Xie Zheyu asked again.
"Same as always." Wu Shanshan replied.
"Sister Shanshan, you are so scary. You always get first place, right?" The little girl named Cai Xiaoying laughed.
Cai Xiaoying just entered the first year of high school thanks to Huang Ling's financial support, and her grades are pretty good.
"Brother Xie, I know you are studying at Tsinghua University. You are so awesome!" Cai Xiaoying looked at Xie Zheyu with admiration.
"Well, you can just call me by my name, Xie Zheyu, which means philosophy and universe."
"Brother Zheyu!" Cai Xiaoying changed her name.
Xie Zheyu took a breath of cold air:
"No, no! Don't call me brother! I'm not used to it! Just call me Xie Zheyu, like this, understand?"
Cai Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said "Oh".
They arrived at the designated place and began distributing flyers.
Xie Zheyu was thicker-skinned than the other three. He affectionately called them "Grandma, Auntie, Sister," handed them flyers, and added a different phrase:
When I met an older woman, she would say, "Auntie, it doesn't matter where you buy it, why waste that extra money? Keep this piece of paper. With this paper, you can buy anything and get an egg."
When I meet younger people, I say, "You can go to the second floor to browse clothes first, and then go downstairs to buy things. It's free to browse and it's free to try on things!"
Cai Xiaoying exclaimed to another girl, Fang Ru, "She's so smart, capable, and pretty."
"That's right!" Fang Ru also agreed.
Although the two spoke quietly, Wu Shanshan, who was a few steps away, still heard it.
She walked away a few steps and began to distribute flyers seriously. She didn't have many in her hand because Xie Zheyu had taken most of them just now, and now she was too embarrassed to ask him for more.
She looked at Xie Zheyu and was surprised.
Because she saw that Xie Zheyu had two strokes when writing the number, so he didn't write his own number 7 at all, but her number 11.
Wu Shanshan finished handing out the flyers in her hand and looked at the other two people who still had some. After thinking for a moment, she walked over to Xie Zheyu:
"Give me some, I've finished mine."
"No need, find a place to sit and wait for me." Xie Zheyu retracted his hand.
Wu Shanshan was about to say something, but Xie Zheyu took a step with his long legs and walked across the street.
She had no choice but to go back so soon, so she took out the book from her cloth bag, sat on the side of the road and started reading.
After a while, Cai Xiaoying winked at Fang Ru and said, "Did you see anything?"
Fang Ru was naive and shook her head.
"A couple!" Cai Xiaoying said with a smile.
Fang Ru looked at the two of them, but couldn't see anything.
"I heard that she plans to take the college entrance examination in her second year of high school." Fang Ru covered her mouth with her hand and whispered in Cai Xiaoying's ear.
"Oh, is it okay?" Cai Xiaoying is only in the first year of high school and she doesn't know these policies.
"Yes, you can just pass the preliminary exam. There's no need to study for another year. But you need to have the same grades as hers! Others are eager to study for another year to improve their scores. If I had grades like hers, I wouldn't study for another year." Fang Ru was envious.
"I'm afraid that others are anxious not because they want to study for another year, but because they want to catch up..." Cai Xiaoying pouted at Xie Zheyu.
"ah"
"What kind of place is Beijing? What kind of place is Tsinghua University? If Xie Zheyu falls in love with a Beijing girl, there will be no chance for her!" Cai Xiaoying explained.
"You're overthinking it!"
"But it's also possible that he was spotted by a Beijing girl, haha! Who knows..."
Fang Ru bumped into Cai Xiaoying, and only then did Cai Xiaoying see that Wu Shanshan was already behind them.
"Do you need my help?" Wu Shanshan asked.
The two of them shook their heads.
"Okay then," Wu Shanshan paused after taking a step away, then turned back to the two of them and said, "I forgot to remind you guys, if you want to gossip about others, it's best not to do so in the factory, and definitely not to spread it among the other girls working there. Factory Director Huang hates gossipers the most. Be careful, or you'll lose your chance to get the subsidy."
"Sister Shanshan..." Cai Xiaoying wanted to defend herself.
"It's not easy for you and me to have the opportunity to go to high school and take the college entrance examination. Don't waste your time and opportunity." Wu Shanshan said calmly and left.
Fortunately, Xie Zheyu saw her out of the corner of his eye and hurriedly chased after her, only to see that she had a cold expression on her face.
He didn't chase me anymore and said, "I'm going to the dormitory next door to post it. You can go back to Yuesheng first!"
After saying that, he strode away without waiting for Wu Shanshan's answer.
Huang Ling saw that it was almost time, so she waited for them at Zhu Xiu Yu's counter.
"I'm taking them to Kaiming Western Restaurant for dinner. Sister Yu, do you want to come with us? You've almost sold all your stuff anyway."
"Oh, I won't go. Wouldn't it be a waste of money if I go? That steak... is so big and so expensive." Zhu Xiu Yu stretched out her palm to compare, then looked embarrassed.
She heard Hongbin say that the steak was as big as a palm, and if he only ate steak, he could eat ten or eight pieces of it by himself, which was enough to cost someone else half a month's salary. In the end, he still felt full after eating fried rice and sandwiches.
"Hahaha! With them both back recently, has the food bill at home gone up?"
"Oh, you're not someone else, so I'm just telling you this. Money isn't a big deal, it's just...it's just that eating makes me a little scary, and I can't ask. I want to ask, 'Still eating, aren't you going to feel full?' Then others will hear that I'm restricting my children from eating, so I can only buy hawthorn slices to coax them into eating a little after dinner."
Zhu Xiuyu felt helpless, amused and distressed.
"The food at school can't be compared with the food at home. The taste is different. Now that I'm back, I can eat as much as I want." Huang Ling said with a smile.
"Yes, Hongbin said the food at school has no oil or salt. He likes spicy food, so it's all thanks to the chili sauce Hualin brought from Guizhou and the spicy pickles I made. I don't want him to eat too much of that stuff, or if there's no fresh food to eat. Not to mention Tunan, he can't get used to northern food at all."
"It's okay, don't worry! It will be better next semester."
"Yeah, it will be fine slowly."
While the two were chatting, Xiaoting and Wu Jun came back first.
Zhu Xiuyu packed a small plate of braised chicken feet for the two of them to gnaw on while passing the time.
"Aunt Zhu, this is so delicious!" Wu Jun is not always full, so how can he have any snacks?
"Children, eat. Auntie will provide you with enough." Zhu Xiu Yu heard Hong Bin talk about the Wu family's children.
"No, no, auntie, you're selling this for money, I just want to try it." Wu Jun laughed.
Finally everyone was there and we went to eat together.
