Chapter 303: Extra 19 (Little Moon's Chronicles)
The four years of college passed by quickly, and Xiaoyue was about to graduate.
Wang Shan asked her: "Do you want to continue your studies or go straight to work?"
Xiaoyue was a little hesitant; she actually couldn't make up her mind.
"When you've made up your mind, tell Mom and Dad."
Although Wang Shan is over 50 years old, with her current fame, invitations to art exhibitions are pouring in. In addition, her painting skills are still at a very high level and her creative inspiration is abundant, so it is expected that she will not be idle for the next ten or eight years.
Yan Shen is in a similar situation. He is now a big shot in the industry and is in his prime at over 50 years old. The industry will absolutely not allow him to retire easily.
"Maybe when I retire, neither of them will retire." Little Yueliang couldn't help but complain to her grandmother.
"So what do you think? Should you go to graduate school or go to work?" asked Yan's mother.
Xiaoyue shook her head and said, "I don't want to study for a master's degree or work."
ah? !
The granddaughter's answer left Yan's mother dumbfounded.
In her opinion, one should either learn knowledge well in school, apply it in practice and serve the motherland after graduation, or directly enter the society, work hard, make a living and make a contribution to the society.
Now her granddaughter tells her that she doesn’t want either, so what can she do with her?
Could it be that you want to rely on your parents for support?
Living off parents is a sign of laziness. How could Xiaoyue, who is so young, have such thoughts?
This won’t do!
We have to find a way to make her change.
Mother Yan worriedly told her husband what her granddaughter had said, hoping that he could come up with an idea.
Unexpectedly, before they could come up with any ideas, the number of worried people turned into two.
Wang Shan and Yan Shen noticed how unhappy they both looked every day.
Originally, Wang Shan thought that the old couple had a conflict, but when she accidentally saw them hesitant to say something to Xiaoyue, she instantly realized that the problem might be with her daughter.
So I went straight to them and asked them what happened.
After hearing her parents-in-law's speculation, Wang Shan immediately took it seriously, called Yan Shen and told him about it. She decided to hold a family meeting tonight to correct her daughter's distorted thoughts.
When Xiaoyueliang returned home, she was greeted by a trial by three judges.
"Xiaoyueliang, what are your thoughts after graduation?" Yan Shen tried to ease the atmosphere at home, so he deliberately softened his voice and smiled at his daughter.
When Little Moon heard her father's hoarse voice and the forced smile on his face, she couldn't help but shudder.
Wang Shan couldn't help but secretly twist Yan Shen's waist, "Your father just wants to know what you plan to do after graduation."
"I don't have any plans." Little Moon answered honestly.
"Don't you want to continue your graduate studies? I asked your teacher, and he said that with your grades, it should be no problem for you to study for a master's degree in our school." Yan Shen specifically asked the teacher at Pengcheng University about his daughter's situation this afternoon.
"Yes, it will be easier to find a job after graduating from graduate school." Yan's mother followed up with a conversation.
Little Moon shook her head, "I don't want to study anymore."
"Then working is not a bad idea. Don't worry about employment. Your grandma and I will make some calls for you and guarantee that we can help you find a job." Father Yan looked at his granddaughter eagerly.
Little Moon still shook her head.
“Are you worried that the work is too tiring?”
"no."
"Why is that?"
Wang Shan spread her hands and said, "I just don't want to go out to work."
"Have you read too much social news and are scared by those workplace events? How about this, why don't we try to take the civil service exam?" Yan's mother suggested.
This proposal was still rejected by Wang Shan.
"If you don't want this or that, then what do you want to do?" Wang Shan was a little angry. "If you want to just lie at home and rely on your parents, then I'm telling you right now not to even think about it."
"Mom, what are you thinking about?" Little Moon finally realized that her family thought she was going to be a dependent. "I just haven't decided what to do yet."
"Then when can you think it over?"
"I don't know, let's take it one step at a time!"
Xiaoyueliang's casual attitude made Wang Shan unable to control her anger.
Yan Shen immediately tried to smooth things over, "How about this, Mom and Dad will give you half a year to think it over. If you still can't make up your mind within half a year, then follow Dad's advice and take the postgraduate entrance examination first. How about that?"
Little Moon thought about it, then nodded.
Wang Shan wanted to say something, but Yan Shen patted her hand gently, "Don't be so impatient. Give your daughter half a year to think things through. She is in a period of confusion now. She needs to think things through by herself so that she can have an easier time in the future."
Wang Shan thought about it and felt that she was a little impatient.
So, after June, Little Yueyue started to stay at home.
At first, the family was a little uncomfortable with it, but soon they discovered the benefits of having Xiaoyueliang at home.
Yan's father and mother found that it was very convenient to have Xiaoyueliang at home.
There is someone to help carry groceries, pick up express deliveries, do housework, and even going to the hospital for a physical check-up has become much more convenient.
The old couple no longer have to run up and down with the list and ask medical staff everywhere. They don’t even need to stand there in line. They just need to sit there and wait for their granddaughter to call them.
Wang Shan and Yan Shen also discovered the benefits of having their daughter at home.
Normally, the two of them didn't dare to leave Pengcheng at the same time. After all, there were elderly people at home on both sides, and they were afraid that something urgent might happen at home. Now that Xiaoyueliang is at home, she can help take care of the elderly. No matter what emergency situation there is, she can help deal with it first, and she doesn’t have to worry so much.
In late August, Xiaoyueliang accompanied her grandparents back to her hometown and took them with her on vacation.
Life in the countryside is rather monotonous. When Xiaoyue had nothing to do, she started to record the pastoral life of the four elderly people in her family with her mobile phone.
Three meals a day, flower bed care, vegetable garden cultivation, wild pond fishing, etc. are all materials she records.
Unexpectedly, the videos shot by Xiaoyueliang gradually became popular after being uploaded to the Internet.
Wang Shan downloaded a short video for the promotion of her art exhibition. One day, when she opened it, a video of chicken stewed with chestnuts popped up.
The kitchen in the video is exactly the same as the kitchen in my hometown. Even the dining table is of the same style and color.
She forwarded the video to Yan Shen, who also thought it looked like an old house in Hunan Province.
The couple played Xiaoyueliang's previous videos one by one, and saw the flower bed in front of the front yard, the vegetable gardens on both sides, and the familiar gate. They immediately confirmed that this was their hometown.
She immediately called Xiaoyue.
"Mom." Xiaoyue quickly picked up the phone, "Why are you calling at this time?"
My mother should be busy with her art exhibition at this time. Even the video call every night is hung up in less than three minutes after being connected. There must be something wrong when she calls me at this time.
"Are you a bright moon?"
Xiao Yueliang's eyes widened. She didn't expect that she would be exposed so quickly. "Mom, how come you watch short videos?"
In her impression, her mother is the kind of person who is only obsessed with art and generally only pays attention to things in the art circle. How could she suddenly watch a short video, and the key is that she was the one she watched!
"I found it by accident." Wang Shan replied, "It should be profitable, right?"
She just checked and based on the number of hits on her daughter's videos, she should be earning quite well.
"Yes, the money we earn is enough for us to live in our hometown." Xiaoyue replied with a smile.
"Since you're going to do it, do it well!" Wang Shan encouraged, "But don't take some messy advertisements."
"Oh." Xiaoyue blinked. She didn't expect that her mother didn't object to her being a self-media person.
