Song Xiaowu looked at Song Rushuang.
The latter nodded to him, then said with a smile:
"Don't blame me, Brother Xiaowu. I was caught by Aunt Wu and had no choice but to tell her about the surprise."
That sounds nice.
But both Song Rushuang and Bai Lingzhi knew it.
The reason why Song Rushuang brought this up was probably because she didn't want to mention anything related to the Shen family.
Song Xiaowu smiled and said helplessly:
"What's the big deal? Speaking of this surprise, I couldn't have done it without your help, Xiaoqi."
Even after hearing this, Bai Lingzhi still didn't understand what the surprise Song Rushuang and Song Xiaowu were talking about was.
"You two brothers should stop chatting with yourselves and tell me first, what exactly is a surprise?"
"A surprise... maybe this is it."
Song Xiaowu first secretly handed the envelope in his hand to Song Rushuang.
Afterwards, Song Rushuang immediately handed the envelope to Bai Lingzhi.
Although he didn't know what it was, Bai Lingzhi still took it in his hands.
Song Rushuang stretched her neck to look over and immediately reminded:
"Aunt Wu, please open it and take a look. Aren't you curious about what the surprise is?"
"Is this it?"
Bai Lingzhi opened the envelope while speaking, and her eyes instantly widened.
"W-what? An invitation letter from Dongming University?!"
Bai Lingzhi couldn't help but be surprised.
To talk about what she was most worried about before.
There are only two things.
Song Xiaowu's illness and his problem with going to school.
"Aunt Wu, you have to allow me to take Xiaowu brother with me. If everything goes well, Xiaowu brother will be able to officially enter Dongming University after this trip."
Bai Lingzhi opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.
She couldn't believe her ears and was afraid that she had heard it wrong.
Finally, as an honest farmer, Bai Lingzhi was happy but more worried.
"Xiao Qi, what's going on? Your brother also failed the college entrance examination. Why would they look up to us? Did you give them money?"
Bai Lingzhi just wants to find peace of mind.
It was because she cared too much about her only son that she did not take this matter lightly.
Song Rushuang comforted her: "Aunt Wu, you think too highly of me. Xiao Qi is a real person..."
The word "poor" is already on my lips.
System Xiao Ai suddenly reminded: "Five million, five million..."
Well, Song Rushuang successfully shut up.
She actually forgot about the pocket money the Shen family gave her.
It seems that it is not that difficult to get other people's money.
Although this is not a lot of money for the Shen family.
Besides, the reason was just the pocket money accumulated over the years.
No matter what, having these five million meant that Song Rushuang could not say in front of Bai Lingzhi that she was a poor person.
Isn't this blatant deception of others?
Song Rushuang didn't mean that she didn't want to lie to anyone anymore in her life.
However, Song Rushuang didn't want to lie to an elder like her fifth aunt who treated her like her own daughter.
After a pause, Song Rushuang slowly shook her head:
"What you said, if giving money can do something, then wouldn't it be safer for me to just buy a notice for Brother Xiaowu?"
The key is that this is not something that money can do.
Bai Lingzhi didn't think so much.
But he also talked to Song Rushuang about the matter at hand:
"You kid, don't say such nonsense. Even though you are from an ordinary family, you can't do such a heartless thing. It's unfair to other kids."
Song Rushuang and Song Xiaowu looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.
Song Xiaowu said softly:
"Mom, I'm a poor student myself. How can I take someone else's place?"
Bai Lingzhi nodded with relief.
Song Xiaowu was the child she raised, so she naturally believed that his values were not much different from her own.
Song Rushuang also quickly explained:
"Aunt Wu, I grew up by your side. I certainly wouldn't do the things you worry about. Actually, it was my brother who brokered this matter for Xiao Wu's brother."
The brother Song Rushuang is talking about now is naturally her biological brother from the same mother.
"You mean, that kid Xiaoliu?"
Song Rushuang nodded without any hesitation.
Bai Lingzhi naturally knew where Song Xiaoliu was now.
At a young age, he was admitted to the junior class of Dongming University.
"Xiao Qi, you shouldn't go looking for your brother. It's not easy for him either. He's still a student. Isn't this making him owe others a favor?"
Bai Lingzhi is not the kind of person who would let other people's children suffer for the sake of his own children.
What's more, Song Xiaoliu and Song Rushuang were children she had watched grow up, so there was nothing wrong with saying that they were her own children.
Since they are all your own children, and you cherish them like flesh and blood, there is absolutely no reason to let any of them suffer.
"Aunt Wu, please don't worry so much. This invitation letter from Dongming University actually has only one purpose, and it's definitely not for favoritism or fraud. Whether or not you can truly become a university student depends on Xiaowu's own ability."
"How do you say that?"
Bai Lingzhi is old and has been staying in the village all year round, so naturally his horizons have not been broadened.
When it comes to anything, it is normal to be afraid of both wolves in front and tigers behind.
Song Rushuang was not impatient at all.
Seeing Bai Lingzhi asking, Song Rushuang continued to explain:
"Brother Xiaowu has been ill for three or four years. When it was serious, he couldn't even get up. That's why he was delayed. Otherwise, when he was my age, he would have gone to college, right?"
Bai Lingzhi nodded with a sense of loss.
Speaking of this matter, Bai Lingzhi was also deeply moved.
When Song Xiaowu was sixteen years old, he could have taken the college entrance examination, but it was during the exam that year that Song Xiaowu fell ill.
With this, Song Xiaowu bid farewell to school.
Song Xiaowu was sensible. Although he didn't say anything, Bai Lingzhi, as a mother, understood the pain in her son's heart.
Song Rushuang stepped forward and hooked her arm around Bai Lingzhi, saying obediently, "Then you definitely won't have the heart to let him take the exam again this time next year, right?"
First of all, letting him return to high school classes might cause some burden to Song Xiaowu.
After all, he is fully capable of going directly to college, instead of having to go through high school again with kids who are three or four years younger than him, then take exams, and finally go to college.
Song Rushuang felt that doing this was basically no different from wasting time.
Moreover, Song Xiaowu's body is still in the recovery stage.
Senior year of high school is a difficult time, and there is no way Song Xiaowu could have survived.
Song Rushuang also shared her idea with Bai Lingzhi.
