Chapter 273: Poor Princess (Twenty-two)
What made Gu Sinian "feel ashamed" was still to come——
Not only did Zhang's aunt come, she also specially prepared three cheongsams.
"Don't you understand? This is called 'a successful start'!"
"Our Si Nian is a good student, but for things like the college entrance examination, we still need a good start!"
"Come on! Little sister, wear one! Qingcheng, you have fair skin, wear one!"
Aunt Zhang herself wore a cheongsam made of Xiangyunsha, and she gave one to Gu's mother and Gu Qingcheng each.
Everyone in the Gu family: ...Is there such a saying? But, since it's a good start, everyone is still willing to accept it.
It's not about superstition or not.
This is like saying “Congratulations on getting rich” even though you know you won’t get rich.
This is just an expression of a good wish and also a positive psychological suggestion.
"Oh, sister-in-law is really thoughtful! I am so busy every day that I don't even know these things."
Mother Gu agreed with this and hurriedly took the cheongsam back to her room to change into it.
Gu Qingcheng found it quite novel. When the original owner took the college entrance examination, no parents wore cheongsams yet.
It's only been a year, and there's already a "fashion trend"? Gu Qingcheng also knew the meaning of a good start, so she didn't say anything and turned around to change her clothes.
Gu Sinian: ...Mom! Sister! That's not necessary!
After quickly changing their clothes, Mother Gu and Gu Qingcheng returned to the "main group".
Then, the Gu and Zhang families surrounded Gu Sinian and walked out of the Gu family in a mighty procession.
"Oh! Go and take the test!"
"Si Nian, do your best in the exam and make your grandfather and your father proud."
"Pass the imperial examination! Haha, Si Nian, you must pass the imperial examination!"
Neighbors and even tourists who came to check in, who were staying in the B&B, heard the noise and came to join in the fun.
They all spoke words of blessing to Gu Sinian.
Gu Sinian kept smiling and saying thank you, and he felt like his face was about to freeze from smiling.
After finally getting out of the village in the city, Father Gu and Uncle Zhang each drove a car.
The two families rushed to the school at lightning speed.
"Si Nian, don't have too much psychological pressure!"
"Right! You just need to perform at your usual level!"
"Keep calm! Play your best! You can do it!"
The family members stood at the school gate and repeatedly reminded Gu Sinian.
Gu Sinian was actually a little "numb". He nodded obediently, then walked into the school gate with the file bag.
Although his family's mobilization made him feel a little uncomfortable.
But deep down in his heart, Gu Sinian was still happy——
Even teenagers in their rebellious period long for attention from their family.
Sending someone to take an exam is really more than just a formality.
The evil water squatting deep in Gu Qingcheng's sea of consciousness watched closely.
Seeing the smile flashing in Gu Sinian's eyes, he couldn't help but say, "Be content, young man! You are much happier than in the original plot!"
Gu Qingcheng: ...
So, this cheap brother of mine is really an important character in the original novel? A supporting actor?
Or cannon fodder?
She pretended not to care about Huoshui's mumbling and stood with Gu's mother and Aunt Zhang.
No one agreed, and Huoshui's desire to share became even stronger. He continued to ramble, "In the original plot, your sister failed Zou Kai's test and became a gold digger that everyone hated."
"In order to restore our reputation, and because our values do not allow it, your sister, your parents and your father have decided to return all of Zou Kai's money and gifts."
"However, bags, clothes and jewelry can be returned in their original condition, but meals, coffee and even some consumables can only be converted into money."
"In the end, there are still 30,000 or 40,000 left."
The Gu family in the original plot did not have a "net celebrity" daughter.
The business of the small restaurant at home is neither good nor bad, and it can only cover the normal expenses of the family.
For the sake of their daughter, the Gu family had to return 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, which really made Gu's father and mother very embarrassed.
Borrowing money, mortgaging the house... Gu's parents tried every way to raise the money, and they were so overwhelmed that they simply ignored Gu Sinian.
Gu Sinian and Su Xiaoxiao take extra lessons together every day.
In his heart, Su Xiaoxiao has become the most important person in his life.
During the college entrance examination, Su Xiaoxiao's mother came to send her off, but Gu Sinian was alone.
Su Xiaoxiao said to Gu Sinian, "It's okay, I'll give you half of my mother. This way, we'll both be loved by our mothers!"
When Su Xiaoxiao said this, it was pure and innocent.
In fact, she was more like joking.
Gu Sinian took it seriously, he was really touched!
He is completely on the path of the loyal male supporting role and won't turn back even if he hits a wall.
With Gu Qingcheng's arrival, without her doing anything deliberate, the plot changed miraculously.
Gu Qingcheng dispelled Zou Kai's surprise with her arrogant temperament and a signed book.
Not only does the Gu family not have to pay for their daughter's vanity, but their business is also booming thanks to their "daughter".
With money and no worries, your parents will naturally pay special attention to you.
It's like the Matthew effect. When things are bad, misfortunes never come alone; but when things are good, they become icing on the cake.
Gu Sinian has completely gotten rid of the original plot. Now he doesn't have to envy Su Xiaoxiao for having her mother to take the exam.
Ahem, behind him, there are two big families coming.
Perhaps it was the attention from his family that stimulated Gu Sinian's potential; or perhaps it was the cheongsam that Aunt Zhang brought that really worked.
In the examination room, Gu Sinian seemed to be assisted by God.
It is so easy to do the test paper.
After the exam, Gu Sinian knew he had it in hand.
The only difference is probably between the provincial champion and the city champion! Well, as a top student with extraordinary performance, Gu Sinian has such confidence! After the college entrance examination, Gu's father and mother did not dare to ask more questions, and could only carefully observe their son's reaction.
Seeing their son's confidence, the Gu couple felt relieved.
"Son, I heard that all your classmates are going on a trip? Are you going too?"
Being sure that his son's grades would be fine and that the family had money again, Father Gu was very generous and directly gave his son a stack of money.
"I won't go. There will be plenty of opportunities to travel in the future."
Gu Sinian shook his head and refused.
Our family is building a house, renovating it, and busy with business, so my sister has to come back from time to time to help.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
As the man of the family, how could he run away and live a carefree life?
"Kid, your mother and I are at home. Just have fun and don't worry about the family!"
Father Gu knew that his son didn't want to play because he was sensible.
When Gu Sinian heard what his father said, he knew that if he didn't find a suitable reason, his parents would definitely continue to persuade him to go out and play.
"Dad, I've always wanted to have my own room. Now that our house has finally been built, I want to choose and decorate it myself!"
When Father Gu heard his son say this, he suddenly felt that there was some truth in it.
"Okay! I'll listen to you then!"
Just like that, Gu Sinian did not go on any graduation trip, but stayed at home wholeheartedly.
I keep an eye on the project during the day, and when it’s time for dinner, I go to the small restaurant to help out.
Apart from occasionally chatting with classmates online, Gu Sinian almost "turns a deaf ear to what's happening outside the window".
So, he didn't know that Su Xiaoxiao's father had an accident.
He also didn't know that Su Xiaoxiao's mother was also diagnosed with uremia.
Su Xiaoxiao seemed to have finally turned on the heroine mode, sacrificing her parents, and bad things happened one after another.
Fortunately, she found a backup plan in advance.
Wei Hao not only helped Su Xiaoxiao with her homework, marking key points and predicting test questions before the exam, but also stood firmly by Su Xiaoxiao after something happened in the Su family.
Help her deal with her father's funeral, help her negotiate with her unit, and ask for various compensations.
When Su's mother was hospitalized, Wei Hao was also busy running around.
He is not like Gu Sinian. He did not skip a grade and even started elementary school a year later.
Wei Hao, like Su Xiaoxiao, is already nineteen years old.
Wei Hao is two years older than Gu Sinian and seems more mature and stable.
The key is that he is a top student. He cannot be said to know everything about astronomy and geography, but he knows a lot of "common sense".
Thanks to Wei Hao's brain and insight, the Su family avoided further losses.
Su's mother was lying on the hospital bed, very satisfied with Wei Hao who was busy with everything. She had begun to treat Wei Hao with the mentality of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
"Xiao Xiao, Xiao Wei is a really good kid, you must cherish him!"
Su Xiaoxiao pouted, "Mom, what's going on! Wei Hao and I are just good friends!"
We are not boyfriend and girlfriend.
Although she has chosen Wei Hao, Su Xiaoxiao still thinks of Gu Sinian from time to time in her heart.
There’s no way, Gu Sinian is too handsome.
Wei Hao is not ugly, but he is not a pretty boy like Gu Sinian.
People all look at appearance, and Su Xiaoxiao is no exception.
Not to mention, she and Gu Sinian had been classmates for six years, from junior high school to high school.
They are the real childhood sweethearts.
Unfortunately, for some reason, Gu Sinian changed!
Looking up at the hospital window, his eyes drifted off into the unknown distance.
Su Xiaoxiao felt inexplicably melancholy.
Something even more depressing happened to her——
The college entrance examination results are out.
Gu Sinian exceeded the baseline test score by more than 20 points and obtained 713 points, successfully becoming the top scorer in science in the province.
Teachers and classmates from the school, recruitment teachers from prestigious universities, and reporters from provincial and municipal television stations all rushed to the scene upon hearing the news.
The Gu family's small restaurant once again became the focus of world attention.
Top scorer in the college entrance examination!
This is more impressive than the most beautiful campus beauty.
Gu Sinian is not the kind of nerd who only studies hard. He is tall and good-looking.
Coupled with his temperament of "a man of culture and learning, he is naturally elegant", he looks like a handsome young talent who walked out of an ancient painting.
High IQ, high looks! Gu Sinian also quickly became popular on the Internet.
Curious netizens checked and found that Gu Sinian’s sister is also a very outstanding celebrity.
"Wow, this Gu family is so amazing, their daughter is excellent and their son is awesome!"
"Yes, yes. The key is that they are both so beautiful. The daughter is so beautiful, and the son is so handsome!"
"Very good! My mother has already scolded me, saying that I am not as good as Gu Sinian."
"Haha, my mom is even more outrageous. She kept muttering: I don't know which deity her parents prayed to when they were pregnant!"
Netizens kept commenting, some expressed envy, some were jealous, and some even made some sour remarks secretly.
But no matter what the content is, Gu Sinian has gained enough popularity on the Internet.
So much so that Su Xiaoxiao, who had no contact with him, could see Gu Sinian on the news...
