With mixed feelings, Xie Wanying felt unprecedented torment at the thought of whether or not to call her mother to tell her the truth.
Tell mom? It's been a long time since the incident happened, and there's no way to investigate. If Auntie Min hesitated, she was afraid of rubbing salt into her mother's wounds, let alone healing the pain in her heart.
If I don't tell her, wouldn't I be depriving her mother of the right to know the truth? Maybe her mother has always blamed herself for not doing well in the exam and not being able to go to school.
After lunch, Xie Wanying thought about it and decided to call home.
It was her brother who answered her call.
"Sister, are you looking for mom?" Xie Tianyou jumped up and down when he received a call from his sister. He told his sister, "Mom said that if you can't come back for work during the Spring Festival this year, take me to the capital to see you. Because Sister Lixuan said she is moving to a new house and wants to invite us to visit."
After hearing what her brother said, Xie Wanying suddenly remembered the text message her childhood friend had sent her, saying that they had obtained a loan for their new house with the help of Senior Brother Cao. She had not had time to tell her family about buying a house. Wu Lixuan knew that she did not want to tell her family too early, so she might be planning to invite her mother to the capital during the Spring Festival to solve the problem.
"Sister, is the capital very cold? Sister Lixuan said she was almost frozen to death in the north and wanted to give up and go back to our hometown to work several times." Xie Tianyou said, "But mom said that Sister Lixuan probably won't be able to come back and will marry in the north."
The childhood friend told her mother about her boyfriend, which was equivalent to admitting to her mother that she had feelings for Dr. Yin and was thinking about getting married. As expected of her mother's favorite goddaughter, she told her mother what she had in mind instead of telling her. Xie Wanying smiled when she heard the information leaked by her brother.

...
"Dad heard that it's not good to marry in the north, and that Sister Lixuan will regret it sooner or later." Xie Tianyou didn't hide anything and reported everything about the family to his sister who lived far away. "Dad said that men in the north are not as good as those in my hometown. Men in my hometown are reliable. He said that you must come back and marry someone from my hometown."
She knew what her father was thinking. His son could leave home to start a business, but his daughter could not marry far away. If her daughter married far away, how would she take care of her family? She would have to rely on her daughter to take care of her elderly parents. After all, the daughter-in-law was unreliable, and it was too difficult to ask the son-in-law to pay. Only the son could pay and the daughter could work to support her father.
"Mom and Dad had an argument, saying that it was up to us to marry whoever we wanted. Dad was very unhappy after hearing that, and he moved his things to live with grandpa and grandma for a few days. Mom is now chatting next door. Aunt Wang next door said that she knows someone who works in the capital, and she wants to introduce you to a date. After hearing that, mom went over to ask around for you. By the way, sister, do you have a boyfriend? Sister Lixuan has one."
What do you want to do by saying this, brother?
Xie Tianyou revealed his little thoughts: "People say that if I have a brother-in-law, he will spoil me and give me money to spend. Maybe when he wants to pursue you, he will help me with my homework to please you."
"You have to rely on yourself to study. When the time comes, it will be you who will take the exam, not others." Xie Wanying asked her brother not to dream of pie in the sky.
Xie Tianyou rolled on the sofa at home holding the microphone, his mischievous nature had not changed, and said: "Sister, can't I even dream a little? Sister Lixuan came to our house last time and brought something over, saying that her boyfriend gave it to me."
