Chapter 100 Chapter 100 Timely Rain
Jiang Xi was extremely surprised. She felt that Qi Yu'an in front of her was just like the Snail Girl in the fairy tale she had heard before. No, it was the Snail Prince who could always provide help when she needed it.
Jiang Xi said: "Thank you!"
Qi Yu'an shook his head. "There's no need for us to thank each other. Besides, I've already said it before. I'm honored to contribute to Comrade Jiang's career!"
Jiang Xi was a little worried: "Will your grandfather find it troublesome?"
Qi Yu'an looked at Jiang Xi and said, "Don't worry. Grandpa was very happy when I asked him for help. He was just like my parents, always urging me to find a partner. Now that I have such an excellent partner, he couldn't be happier. He's even happier that he can play a role."
Qi Yu'an added with a sly look in his eyes, "Besides, my grandfather is retired and bored all day. As an old man, I need to find him something to do so he feels needed. In other words, I'm fulfilling my filial duty."
Jiang Xi... Will grandpa be happy if you say this?
Jiang Xi couldn't help but wonder what Qi Yu'an's family was like. From Qi Yu'an's words, Jiang Xi could infer that his family had a good relationship: his parents, his brothers, and even his grandparents. So, what exactly does a harmonious and happy family look like? Only such a beautiful family could raise someone like Qi Yu'an.
Wu Yaoguo was originally very melancholy, but when he saw the interaction between Qi Yu'an and Jiang Xi, he felt very sad. His little girl had grown up and was going to be taken advantage of by a pig. Although Qi Yu'an had nothing to do with pigs, Wu Yaoguo just felt uncomfortable.
He lowered his head and listened to their conversation with melancholy, getting information from it.
Qi Yuan's family background should be good. This kid is quite good at talking. If he was half as good at talking as this kid, he would have married a long time ago. Oh no, if he looked half as energetic as this kid, he would have two children already. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others.
Wu Yaoguo felt extremely complicated, but after hearing Jiang Xi's next words, he had no mind to think about anything else.
Jiang Xi is a man of action. When he decided to take the college entrance examination at Shiquan Hotel, he quickly planned a schedule in his mind to ensure that he could study while running his business.
"I want to take the college entrance examination." Jiang Xi said to Qi Yu'an.
Qi Yu'an had a premonition about this matter. Although he did not discriminate against people without academic qualifications, because of his family background, Qi Yu'an knew that people who had attended college and those who had not were different, and their ways of thinking were also different.
Jiang Xi is very smart and has a certain talent for business. With this talent and the experience and high education of Lin Xiurong, she can have a very enjoyable conversation about business.
If Jiang Xi retains his original talent and continues to study systematically, he will definitely go further in the future, so Qi Yu'an was very surprised about this.
"I support you. I have some study materials here that I will organize for you when the time comes, as well as some study experiences and notes." Qi Yu'an not only encouraged Jiang Xi verbally, but also provided help through actions.
Jiang Xi tilted his head slightly to look at Qi Yu'an: "You don't even ask me why I suddenly want to take the college entrance examination? And you have so much confidence in me?"
Qi Yu'an stared at Jiang Xi, his lips curled up slightly. "Well, I have great confidence in you because I know that with your intelligence and talent, you will definitely be able to pass the exam. I don't ask you why because as long as you don't do anything illegal, I will support you in everything else, so I don't need to ask why."
Jiang Xi's eyes moved around, as if complaining and acting like a spoiled child: "You are so unprincipled."
Qi Yuan replied as a matter of course: "You are my principle. Besides, there is no big deal in life. Usually, there is no need to be too principled. Besides, it is like this in our family. All men will listen to their wives. My father often taught me that if I want a harmonious and prosperous family, I must listen to my wife."
Jiang Xi...
Wu Yaoguo...this guy is really good at talking. I have to listen carefully and learn what he says!
"Is it still too late to sign up now?" Jiang Xi was a little worried.
Qi Yuan said, "The college entrance examination is in July. There are still a few months left so it should be in time. But wouldn't it be too hard for you to run your business and take the college entrance examination at the same time?"
Jiang Xi shook his head: "I actually attended high school until the second semester of my second year, but I stopped because my family was broke. But I had good grades when I was in school, so I have a solid foundation. If I work harder in the next few months, I should be able to make it."
Jiang Xi said to Qi Yu'anren with a smile, "And don't we have you here? You're doing pretty well, aren't you? I believe that with your guidance, my grades will definitely improve dramatically!"
Qi Yu'an didn't expect Jiang Xi to flatter him, but the compliment felt comfortable, so he accepted it naturally: "Of course I will help you review. I happen to have a few papers here for you to do first, as a test to get a feel for your situation. Then I'll tailor a review plan for you!"
Qi Yu'an also quickly gave the rules. He had helped others review before, and now he also taught Liu Zhiqiang to review every day.
Liu Zhiqiang is a typical poor student, but under Qi Yu'an's guidance, he can barely get a passing score. Jiang Xi is so smart that he must be a hundred times smarter than Liu Zhiqiang.
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "Thank you, Teacher Qi. Please tell me more about the college entrance examination. I haven't taken the college entrance examination yet, so I don't know the specific rules."
Qi Yu'an: "Then let me briefly explain. The college entrance examination is in July and takes three days, from July 7th to July 9th. There are seven subjects in total, including Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry, politics, and history. Physics, chemistry, and English are probably the more difficult ones. How is your English foundation?"
Jiang Xi said honestly, "My score on the paper is okay, but my speaking and listening scores aren't that good."
Jiang Xi was learning dumb English, and there were no conditions for her to practice speaking at the time, not to mention listening, which required a radio and tapes. Jiang Xi's family couldn't even afford food, so how could they have these luxuries?
Qi Yu'an hummed, "English isn't difficult. Just memorize more basic words and increase your vocabulary, and you'll get a good score on the test. Speaking and listening do require regular practice. I'm pretty good at English, so I think I can help you. I also have a few tapes and a tape recorder I can give you. Listen, memorize, and recite more often. It's very simple, and there's a technique to it. Once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to master it."
Jiang Xi listened very carefully, and instantly summoned the same energy that he had used to study hard in school. He said as if swearing an oath: "I will work hard!"
Jiang Xi's attitude as if he wanted to get full marks in every subject made Qi Yu'an laugh so hard. How could his partner be so cute?
"It doesn't matter. Even if I don't pass this year, I can still pass next year. There's no need to push myself like this."
Jiang Xi complained: "It hasn't even started yet, can you please stop saying such discouraging things?"
Qi Yu'an quickly admitted his mistake: "It's my fault, it's my fault. Comrade Jiang will definitely be invincible and take first place!"
Jiang Xi... there's no need to be so exaggerated. Being a student again, Jiang Xi is full of yearning for college. No matter what, she must get admitted this year!
With this idea in mind, Jiang Xi returned to Changfeng County. Wu Yaoguo kept his head down all the way, but his eyes kept stealing glances at the people and scenery on the street. Changfeng County had changed a lot, and more people were doing business on the street.
Jiang Xi and Qi Yu'an took Wu Yaoguo directly back to the village. Wu Yaoguo couldn't help but shudder as he approached the village entrance, fearing that he would be seen by acquaintances. However, he didn't expect that a few people saw them from a distance and hurriedly avoided them.
Wu Yaoguo? ... Is he that scary? At this point, Wu Yaoguo still didn't know about Jiang Xi and Qi Yu'an's record in the village. They were ruthless people who had sent several people to the Public Security Bureau one after another. Those who loved to gossip about them were not allowed to retreat voluntarily.
Wu Yaqin had been waiting at home for a long time. This was Jiang Xi's first time traveling far away. Although Qi Yu'an was there, Wu Yaqin was still very worried. It was not until she saw Jiang Xi that Wu Yaqin's heart settled down.
Seeing Jiang Xi coming back, Wu Yaqin hurried to meet him, but before she could say anything, she saw the person behind Jiang Xi.
Although he was darker and thinner, Wu Yaqin still recognized him as her younger brother Wu Yaoguo.
Wu Yaqin yelled, "Yaoguo, why are you back? No, why did you come back just now? Where have you been all these years? Do you know that we are all worried about you?"
Wu Yaoguo felt extremely guilty. His eldest sister had always been very kind to him. She would save all the delicious food for them. Even when times were difficult, she would occasionally make something delicious and send it to them.
When Wu Yaoguo went out, he had thought that if he made money, he would definitely help his elder sister, but now he can't help at all. It was only because of Jiang Xi that he came back.
Wu Yaoguo's eyes were filled with tears. It was all his fault: "Sister, it's me. I'm back. I'm sorry!"
Wu Yaqin was extremely surprised. There had been no news from Wu Yaoguo in the past few years, and the whole family thought he was dead. Wu Yaoguo also became a taboo topic in the family. Wu Yaqin didn't dare to mention anything about Wu Yaoguo to Chen Xiulian.
But now Wu Yaoguo was standing in front of her alive. Wu Yaqin asked in a trembling voice: "Jiang Xi, what is going on? Why did you come back with your uncle?"
Jiang Xi explained: "I met my uncle in Shanghai, and he brought me back. The specific things can't be explained in a few words, so let my uncle go into the house and tell me slowly when we get home."
Wu Yaqin nodded, looked at Wu Yaoguo deeply and said, "Mom is here too, you can go in."
When Wu Yaoguo heard that Chen Xiu Lian was also there, he became even more timid. He was a little homesick. The one among his family members whom he felt most guilty towards was Chen Xiu Lian. He was the youngest son, and Chen Xiu Lian had always favored him.
When Wu Yaoguo went out to do business, Chen Xiulian specially gave him twenty yuan. These were the money Chen Xiulian had saved for a long time. When Wu Yaoguo thought of this, his heart ached, his eyes turned red, and his legs felt like they were filled with lead. The gate was right in front of him, and he could see the person he had been thinking about day and night after entering, but Wu Yaoguo still couldn't take a step.
Jiang Xi said calmly, "You'll have to face these things eventually. You can't hide forever. Go in. You'll get beaten anyway, whether it's early or late. It's better to get beaten early so you can feel at peace."
Wu Yaoguo... Jiang Xi's encouragement was really heart-wrenching, but it also aroused his courage. Yes, he was going to be beaten anyway, so it would be better to get beaten early and feel at ease early.
