"Second brother, how did you do on the final exam?"
"It's okay, about the same as before, probably first or second in the grade."
Du Chen finally finished his third grade. He just finished his final exam today, and Du Chen also started his summer vacation.
"Hello, who are you?"
Du Chen was chatting with his father when the phone at the counter rang. Ren Surong, who was cleaning the counter, picked up the call.
"Hey, Third Sister, what's wrong?"
"You want to send Yueyue over tomorrow? No need. I'm going to the city tomorrow. I'll pick her up then!"
"It's hard to explain over the phone, let's meet and talk tomorrow!"
"Okay then, see you tomorrow!"
"Old Du, go pick up Yueyue tomorrow when you go to the city. Yueyue wants to come over to play, and my third sister and brother-in-law are both at work and don't have time to take care of her."
After hanging up the phone, Du Chen's mother said to Comrade Lao Du.
"Okay, Yueyue has to come and stay for a few days every summer vacation anyway."
…
"Suyun, are you home? We're going to the city soon!"
Before leaving, Du Chen's mother called Du Chen's third aunt.
"Okay then, just stay home and don't go there. We'll go there directly later!"
"Let's go, Lao Du, and pick up Xiao Min by the way."
"Where's Lao Ding? He's not going?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen's mother as he got into the car.
"No, Lao Ding is at work today."
After picking up Jia Xiaomin, the Du couple, Jia Xiaomin, and Du Chen, the four of them headed to the city. Ding Miaomiao and Du Bin were watching over the shop, their only interest lately being photography, so neither of them was keen on going to the city.
After more than half an hour, Comrade Lao Du's car had stopped downstairs of Ren Suyun's house.
"Suyun, I'm coming, open the door!"
Du Chen's mother knocked on the door and called out "Aunt Du Chen".
"Brother-in-law, you are here!"
"Hello, Third Auntie!"
The two families were talking and introduced themselves to each other.
"Sister, what are you and your brother-in-law doing in the city today?"
Ren Suyun asked her sister curiously.
"Come on, pack your things and follow us. We can talk on the way!"
Ren Suyun was thinking of having lunch together at home, but she didn't expect her sister to leave in a hurry.
After several people squeezed into the car, Du Chen's mother began to explain to Ren Suyun.
"Suyun, I bought a house in the city and the decoration is almost done. I came here today to see how the house is decorated."
"Sister, how much money did you spend on buying a house? Why didn't you tell me? Do you have enough money? I still have some!"
Ren Suyun asked her sister in surprise. Her sister, who had been so quiet, actually bought a house in the city, and she didn't even know anything about it!
"I bought it last year. Binbin was just in his third year of junior high at that time. He thought that he would have to go to high school in the city one day, so he gritted his teeth and bought an apartment in the city. He had enough money at the time, so he didn't tell you."
"By the way, Suyun, are you busy today? If not, why not stay at my house for a few days?"
"Okay, I'm on the night shift tomorrow night, so I'm available today and tomorrow."
"Okay, let's go back to the living area after we finish our work this afternoon. Your second sister is also here right now, so we sisters can have dinner together tonight!"
"Second sister is also in the living area? It's such a big deal, big sister, how come I don't know anything about it!"
Ren Suyun asked Du Chen's mother in surprise, so Ren Surong narrated to Ren Suyun what had happened in the past year.
"Sister Yueyue, aren't you waiting for the test results?"
Du Chen and Gu Yue squeezed between the two mothers, and Du Chen asked Gu Yue curiously.
"Chenchen, you're so stupid. I don't have to go. Mom will help me get my report card when the time comes."
Gu Yue spoke to Du Chen seriously. Looking at Gu Yue's serious face, Du Chen didn't know what to say.
"Sister Yueyue, do you remember Sister Miaomiao? Sister Miaomiao often mentioned you and asked me when you would come to my house."
"Chenchen, of course I remember Sister Miaomiao! I'm not an old person, my memory isn't that bad!"
Du Chen felt that he should not have come to the city today. Why did Gu Yue retort every time he said something? But looking at Gu Yue's serious expression, Du Chen felt that he had nothing to say.
Seeing Du Chen's frustrated look, the adults in the car tried hard to hold back their laughter.
"Chenchen, why are you silent? Did you not do well on the final exam? Did your aunt scold you?"
Looking at the silent Du Chen, Ding Miaomiao asked Du Chen curiously again.
"Without Sister Yueyue, I don't know what to say..."
After holding it in for a long time, Du Chen finally managed to utter a few words.
"Why don't you know what to say? Then tell me what fun things you have at school, and what are we going to do these days?"
"There's nothing fun in school, right? It's the same every day. Sister Yueyue, what do you want to play?"
Du Chen thought about it and realized that he seemed to have only one good friend in elementary school, Liu Yi. He just stayed in his seat every day during class and after class. There was nothing fun about it.
"Chenchen, do you have no friends at school? You're so pitiful! Let me play with you for a few days."
Listening to Gu Yue's words tinged with pity, Du Chen wanted to refute, but when he thought about how he really didn't have many good friends, he fell silent again.
"Okay, we're here, let's get off the bus!"
When Du Chen was feeling aggrieved, a word from Comrade Lao Du finally saved the embarrassed Du Chen.
"Sister, this neighborhood looks great! It's right here in the central square, close to my home!"
