After arriving home in the afternoon, Jiang Nian carefully sorted out the belongings he brought from Tokyo.
Jiang Nian only had about 100,000 yuan left from the money he had saved over the past few years.
All the money given by his mother was placed in another box. Jiang Nian locked the money in a drawer and did not intend to use it.
In the evening, Jiang Nian cooked a bowl of vegetarian noodles for himself and ate while listening to English listening.
Grandma is still at work at this time and may be home around 9 o'clock in the evening.
After dinner, Jiang Nian called his mother.
"Mom, I'm Jiang Nian. Tomorrow is your birthday. Happy birthday to you."
After receiving Jiang Nian's call, Kotoko Oshizuka was filled with joy and gratitude: "Thank you. Are you able to adapt to Rikkai University?"
Jiang Nian's brows relaxed, a look of joy written all over his face. "It's not bad, but I feel that Japanese history is a bit difficult. The time, events, and symbolic meanings are a bit confusing and hard to sort out."
Jiang Nian had no pressure at all in subjects such as Chinese, mathematics, English, and comprehensive science, and had even started reviewing questions from three years of high school.
Jiang Nian needs to study Japanese and Japanese history hard under the guidance of his teacher.
However, he had some difficulty in swimming, running and other items in physical education class and could only barely pass.
Although Kotoko Oshizuka has not lived with Jiang Nian for a long time, she still knows Jiang Nian very well.
"It's okay. You don't have to excel in every subject. Just know enough to pass the entrance exam. Don't stress yourself out."
After she finished speaking, Kotoko Oshizuka changed the subject and said in a relaxed tone: "I did well in Japanese history in school. Do you need notes?"
"Yes, I must."
Jiang Nian was like a long-awaited rain after a drought. The corners of his mouth were stretched to his ears and his voice suddenly rose.
Studying in public schools in Japan is easy, but students in private schools basically attend various remedial classes.
Jiang Nian thought about attending cram school, but it was too expensive.
Mom's action not only helped Jiang Nian, but also helped Jiang Nian's wallet.
After several exchanges, Jiang Nian and her mother decided on the time for her to come to Kanagawa.
Jiang Nian was in a good mood at the moment, and even the faint shadows of the trees in the evening could make him smile.
After steaming the rice, Jiang Nian started to make mixed vegetables.
In recent years, my grandmother has paid attention to health preservation and rarely eats oily and salty foods. After she first ate the mixed vegetable made by Jiang Nian, she couldn't forget it.
Jiang Nian placed the necklace he was going to give to his grandmother next to the prepared dishes and started reviewing high school math on the other side.
When grandma opened the door, she saw Jiang Nian writing on the test paper.
What’s different from usual is that I know the lights in the house are on and my granddaughter is waiting for me.
Whenever I open the door, there is always a warm feeling in my heart.
"Jiang Nian, it's time to go to bed now. Go to bed earlier next time and don't wait for me."
Jiang Nian stopped writing, looked up at his grandmother and said, "It's okay. I'm used to going to bed at 10:30 pm. There's still half an hour left. Grandma, you should eat first."
"Okay, sure." Grandma smiled and went to wash her hands and then eat.
It was 10:20 when Jiang Nian finished his special training.
Jiang Nian handed the wrapped necklace to her grandmother: "Grandma, this is a gift for you, do you like it?"
At this time, grandma had finished her meal and washed the dishes, then sat opposite Jiang Nian.
"Thanks."
After thanking her, grandma asked, "This gift..."
Jiang Nian walked over to his grandmother, opened the package, and took out the necklace: "This is a necklace. When I saw it, I felt that it would suit you very well."
Grandma held the necklace and gestured at her neck: "Is it made of gold? It's too expensive! Do you have enough money? I will give you living expenses every month from now on."
Jiang Nian had refused before, but when he thought of his current savings, he refused: "Grandma, don't worry, I still have money, plenty, don't worry."
When grandma saw Jiang Nianhan’s cute smile and gestures, she wanted to laugh, but she was more moved.
Jiang Nian told his grandmother that his mother would be coming tomorrow.
Grandma's eyes were slightly red. She took out the scarf she had prepared earlier and asked Jiang Nian to give it to Kotoko Oshizuka.
The second day.
Jiang Nian bought vegetables, meat and birthday cake early.
Stew braised pork ribs, steam fish, make vegetable salad, then practice English listening while waiting for mom to come.
Kotoko Oshizuka prepared a lot of things. Even though she knew she couldn't carry so much, she still wanted to bring more things for Jiang Nian.
In the end I had to mail most of the things, and brought the more important ones myself.
When Jiang Nian opened the door and saw his mother with all the bags, he felt a little surprised, distressed, missing her, and aggrieved...
Kotoko Oshizuka's cheeks were slightly red, her fair face was covered with sweat, her pure white T-shirt was soaked, and her back, shoulders and hands were all weighed down by heavy packages.
Jiang Nian couldn't imagine how such a thin mother could come to see him with so many things.
Jiang Nian quickly took the package and asked his mother to go into the living room to rest.
After drinking a glass of water, Kotoko Oshizuka felt a little relieved from her fatigue.
"Mom, why are you carrying so many things? Are you tired?"
Tears filled Jiang Nian's eyes. Jiang Nian knew that Kotoko Oshizuka must be extremely tired, but still couldn't help asking.
Kotoko Oshizuka smiled calmly and said in a gentle tone: "Every time I think about seeing Jiang Nian soon, I don't feel tired anymore!"
After hearing this, Jiang Nian couldn't control herself and rushed to Kotoko Oshizuka and started crying.
Kotoko Oshizuka hugged Jiang Nian, feeling very distressed. Her hand gently slid across Jiang Nian's back, comforting him.
After Jiang Nian calmed down, he realized that his tears had soaked his mother's clothes, and he touched his nose embarrassedly.
Kotoko Oshizuka said at the right moment: "I bought some parent-child clothes, do you want to change into them?"
The white T-shirt with sunflowers printed on the corners is simple and beautiful.
After they changed, they began their happy lunch time.
After eating the meal made by her daughter, Kotoko Oshizuka felt that all the hard work was worth it.
