269 Beautiful Spring
Li Wei skipped a day of classes, not even bothering to ask for leave, and barely attended any classes.
It wasn't until the next morning, when I was forcefully woken up by the alarm clock, that I got up early. I glanced at the person who was sleeping soundly. Actually, she also wanted to sleep, but our family can't all continue to be so decadent.
Forget it, I'll just catch up on sleep this afternoon after class.
Without waking up Da Luo, Li Wei washed up, went to the nursery to take care of the baby for a while, then ate breakfast and went to school with her schoolbag.
Because a newly built main road was completed in the city this spring, it is much closer for Li Wei's family to get to school by car. It used to take nearly 20 minutes by taxi, but now it only takes 14 or 15 minutes.
Being a mother and wife at home and a student at school, Li Wei dresses simply and modestly. Because she has been suffering from internal heat recently, she has lost a lot of weight and has basically returned to her pre-pregnancy level.
Although the weather in June wasn't hot, it was warm enough. Li Wei wore a simple ivory white dress with light red floral print, her hair tied in a simple ponytail, and a pair of flat white lady shoes with cornflowers on them.
He carried a small red, white, and blue striped canvas bag on his back.
She has a stunning figure and an angelic face, with skin as smooth as jade and radiant.
As they walked into the classroom, they attracted countless admiring glances.
Li Wei was initially a little guilty for missing class yesterday, but then she suddenly noticed that she was getting a lot of attention. Her heart, which had been pounding, was comforted, and she felt less guilty. All that was left was vanity.
Actually, she usually gets quite a few stares. It's just that since returning to class this semester, Da Luo's sudden departure has kept her preoccupied and distracted. She hasn't been able to think about anything else and hasn't paid attention.
I only realized it today. Spring has arrived. The swallows have returned. Flowers are blooming everywhere. The leaves are all incredibly long and green! -_-
Upon arriving at the classroom, Li Wei had just put down her bag when Tang Ying mysteriously handed it to her: "Here. This is for you. Hehehe, it feels like a love letter."
Li Wei took the letter, sat down, and looked at it. The sender was anonymous. The address only had the words "this city" written on it. Besides that, there were the words "To: Li Wei, Class 1, English Department, [Year]". All the handwriting was in blue-black ink fountain pen. The handwriting was very elegant and flowing.
Most importantly, Li Wei discovered that there was no postmark on the envelope. This meant that the letter was delivered directly, without going through the post office.
Li Wei didn't open it. She asked Tang Ying, "Where did it come from?"
Tang Ying chuckled, "I found it in your desk, hehe." Tang Ying guessed that this was the legendary love letter.
Sigh, when someone is pretty, their charm is irresistible. I remember when we first entered school, Li Wei was about the same size as her, and she was chubby too. Now, a year has passed, and she's slimmed down and become pretty, but what about me? I'm still the same. Sigh!
Li Wei had no idea what Tang Ying was thinking. She read the mysterious letter over and over again. Could this be the legendary love letter?
She had received quite a few notes during junior and senior high school, but she had never seen such a thick and solemn 'love letter' before, and it would be a lie to say she wasn't happy.
Thinking of a certain guy, it seems he's never written her a love letter, nor even sent her flowers. He has sent her gifts, though, but sending love letters and flowers would have been so much more romantic.
No, she had to remind him that he must do his homework properly and not cut corners just because they had known each other since childhood.
Li Wei stuffed the letter into her schoolbag, took out her book to read it, and dodged Tang Ying, who was craning her neck to watch the excitement, and said with dissatisfaction, "What are you doing? Open it and take a look!"
Li Wei glanced at her: "What's so interesting about that? This is a private matter. Hurry up and read your book. How many books on the translation teacher's reading list have you read? Have you previewed the new texts?"
Tang Ying quickly raised her hands in surrender: "Alright, alright, I was wrong. Lately, classmates have been coming over to play a lot, so I haven't had time to study. Please forgive me."
Springtime in May and June is the peak season for outings in the north, and students are no exception. Since there are usually no important classes or weekends, many students go out to play, and Tang Ying is no exception.
Those who live on campus feel they have plenty of time and don't have the same sense of urgency as Li Wei. They always feel that they have limited time and heavy tasks, so they try to make the most of their time to study.
The two had barely looked at their textbooks for five minutes when Maria exclaimed in her loud, enthusiastic voice, "Oh my, Li Wei, you look so beautiful today, hehe."
Li Wei -_-
Looking up, I saw that Maria and Xu Ting had both entered.
I had always thought that Maria was more reserved than Xu Ting, but as time went on, I realized that wasn't the case at all. Maria, who lived in the city and came from a well-off family, was just a little reserved at first, but as everyone got to know each other better, her true colors were completely revealed.
When this girl gets excited, she really has a wild side, jumping and skipping around without a care in the world.
Compared to her, Xu Ting, who was originally thought to be very paparazzi, seemed much more demure; it was truly a case of one gaining at the expense of the other.
These two were jokingly referred to by their respective classes as the "Peerless Beauties of the 9th Year of English," simply because they were beautiful.
From the very beginning of last semester, everyone could see that, in terms of figure and appearance, regardless of academics, the two were among the best girls in their year, attracting attention wherever they went. Daring to dress provocatively, they hit it off immediately upon entering school and have been inseparable ever since.
However, at the start of this semester, the two girls suddenly discovered that their status was being seriously challenged by Li Wei, whom they had previously considered chubby.
Although Li Wei came and went in a hurry, and apart from being diligent in her studies, she was not interested in or too lazy to care about anything else, there was nothing that could be done about the sudden darkness that had enveloped her.
Especially today, Li Wei sat there quietly reading a book. Xu Ting and Ma Liya, who entered the classroom, felt that her whole person seemed to be shrouded in a dazzling light, which was very soft, comfortable, and beautiful.
That's why Maria exclaimed in surprise.
These two girls never do anything serious. Li Wei glanced at them helplessly and said, "Thank you for the compliment." She then lowered her head and continued reading.
If you ignore them, it will never end.
Xu Ting returned to the seat behind Li Wei with a grin: "You're welcome, beautiful. It's my birthday tonight. Why don't you and Tang Ying go for cake together at Miaoxiangju, which isn't far from the school gate? Please do me the honor!"
Tang Ying turned her head: "Really? Should we prepare a gift?"
Maria rolled her eyes: "Yes, of course we should. It's just to show our appreciation. We've been sitting in front of and behind each other for almost two semesters."
Basically, the four of them usually sit in the front and back rows, with Li Wei and Tang Ying typically sitting in the front. The two in the back can slack off and won't attract the teacher's attention. If there are any questions, the two in the front, especially Li Wei, can hold them off for a while, and when it's their turn, they can offer reminders or ask questions.
The two privately referred to this as the best duo.
Li Wei, worried that she would disappear after class, didn't want to go. Xu Ting and Ma Liya confirmed with Li Wei several times before letting her go.
After finishing four classes and two main subjects in the morning, Li Wei felt a bit tired. She packed her bag and wanted to go home quickly, eat something, and take a nap. She also wondered what Da Luo was doing; he was still asleep when she left in the morning.
Li Wei had just slung her backpack over her shoulder and was about to leave when Xu Ting stopped her again: "Remember this."
Li Wei said helplessly, "Five o'clock tonight, second floor private room at Miaoxiangju, remember that, beautiful lady, can I go now?"
"Hehehe, sure, sure, you have to come, or you'll be in for a surprise tomorrow, hehe." Xu Ting really had no confidence in this classmate who seemed so busy every day. Would this guy really take this to heart?
Xu Ting felt that there might not be anything or anyone in the entire school that this guy would care about.
Li Wei took a car home. She had originally planned to get a car after getting her driver's license, but now she realized that taking a taxi was very convenient, and she didn't have to put in the effort to drive herself. It also seemed more low-key than driving herself, so she decided to wait and see.
Her original little Beetle had been sitting at home unused for a long time. Her mother, Cheng Min, thought it was a shame to use it, so she used it a few times. She found that this toy-like little car had surprisingly good performance and got hooked on driving it, so she kept using it.
But I also told Li Wei, "If you want a car, ask your dad to buy you another one. I'll drive this one for now."
Li Wei hurriedly and nervously replied, "Mom, please use it as you like. It's my good fortune that you took a liking to my car. Don't be shy, use it as much as you want, hehehe."
Originally, Li Lin said she would use that car to learn to drive during summer vacation, but now, let her borrow it from her mother.
Li's mother was very satisfied with her respectful attitude towards the elderly and caring attitude towards the young. She even asked Li Wei over the phone, "How is it? Do you have enough money? If not, ask your dad to send you some."
Li Wei had just made a fortune not long ago, and she was very apprehensive: "It's enough, enough to last until I'm seventy or eighty. Mom, don't worry about me. I haven't even finished spending what you and Dad gave me before the New Year. There's also what Da Luo's dad gave me, and my aunt also gave me some. I've saved it all. I could spend it all even if I rolled around in a tangle of dust. Don't worry."
Cheng Min was really at ease with this. It seemed that her eldest daughter had never been frugal since she was a child. She would buy whatever was good. As for the food, clothing and other necessities, Cheng Min herself had never even seen or heard of them.
Later, her aunt bought her even more, and it went on and on. Just looking at all those boxes of jewelry and wardrobes full of clothes, Cheng Min felt dizzy. She was such a spendthrift.
But the other party wouldn't ask her and her husband for money, making it difficult for Li Wei to stand up for herself when she wanted to have a proper talk with them.
The economic base determines the superstructure; this statement is absolutely true.
Now that Li Wei has gotten married, Cheng Min went to see the place twice. Fortunately, it wasn't as luxurious as she had imagined. It was a very cozy home, and not too outrageous.
However, Cheng Min felt that this was probably only temporary, and that once that girl had more time, she would inevitably cause more trouble in the future.
Li Wei returned home happily, and Da Luo was already waiting for her at the dinner table.
He tossed his schoolbag to Da Luo, who opened the door, and hurriedly ran to check on the babies basking in the warm sunshine before running out to eat.
The aroma of the food wafted through the air, while a certain student wolfed it down.
Ah, what could be happier than being together as a family!
