Chapter 115115 Chu Song's Hand
Weng Fengwei looked at Fang Qingrong. She was already old, and her eyes were no longer as clear and bright as when she was young. Instead, they revealed the heaviness and turbidity of life.
"You are the only relative left to me in this world."
Fang Qingrong whispered: "Grandma."
Weng Fengwei shook his head. "Grandma is willing to be the bad guy. From childhood to adulthood, I've never asked you for anything. Now, I ask you, no, I'm begging you, please leave her. This is for your own good, and for hers as well."
"Grandma..." Fang Qingrong shook her head.
"She doesn't care about you at all. She will forget you sooner or later. You are asking for trouble! Grandma can see clearly that she is a girl with a sweet mouth but a hard heart!"
Fang Qingrong shook her head stubbornly: "It has nothing to do with her. I just want to like her myself."
Weng Fengwei: "Her heart is harder than yours. You can't keep her."
"I won't keep her."
"Her love for you is no different than the love she feels for the kittens and puppies out there."
"I know."
“…”
Weng Fengwei had nothing to say. She felt sorry for her grandson, but she didn't hate Chu Song either. To be more precise, she couldn't hate him at all.
Whenever she saw Chu Song, she would think of her most beloved little daughter. If those things hadn't happened, if she had the chance to grow up, she would probably look like Chu Song now.
How nice.
"Grandma." Fang Qingrong's eyes were filled with earnestness and embarrassment. He whispered, "These are all my own choices. Chu Song has never been bad to me. She has been very good to me. Don't blame her."
Weng Fengwei closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
She advised.
"You'll be sad."
Fang Qingrong pulled her to sit down and silently wiped her hands clean, which were dirty from peeling beans just now.
After a while, he calmly replied: "I'm not sad, I'm very happy."
Weng Fengwei's eyes were filled with sadness, and she opened her lips as if she wanted to say something.
"Grandma!" Chu Song suddenly popped her head out from outside the door. She grabbed a fat gray rabbit by its ears and said, "Look what I found. When did you start raising rabbits?"
The rabbit in her hand kicked its legs in fear.
As soon as Chu Song arrived, Fang Qingrong's chickens, ducks and geese would all suffer and would inevitably be destroyed.
Weng Fengwei's eyes fell on Fang Qingrong. Where did they come from? Of course, Fang Qingrong knew that she liked these, so she went to the mountains to catch them and raise them to make her happy.
"You like it? If you like, go ahead and play with it."
"I prefer eating to playing." Chu Song tugged at her ears, her left and right brains fighting each other as she muttered softly, "Rabbits are so cute, how can I eat them?"
Weng Fengwei: “…”
Chu Song was curious: "By the way, what were you doing in there for so long?"
Weng Fengwei hooked his finger at her and said, "Come here."
"what?"
"For you."
Chu Song reached out to take it and found that it was a bag of chocolates. She looked at the person in surprise. It was obvious that Weng Fengwei was the most stingy, but he was willing to buy chocolates?
"What are you looking at?" Weng Fengwei said in a cold and aloof manner, "None of us like to eat these. If you like them, take them. Don't forget it."
"Yes, yes, yes, of course!" Chu Song moved closer to her, looking left and right. "No, something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Why are you suddenly so generous?"
Weng Fengwei: "Then give it back to me."
"No, if I give it to you, it's mine."
When Weng Fengwei has nothing to do now, she sews clothes for people and does some tailoring work. Her skills are really good, so her business is pretty good.
She asked someone to buy the chocolate for her some time ago. She heard that young people in the city like to eat this kind of snack now.
In any case, Weng Fengwei's love for Chu Song is not fake.
Fang Qingrong also knew that grandma actually liked Chu Song very much, but...
But he really doesn't deserve her.
——
Ye Xiuzhi's birthday is on Friday. Although there was no such concept in that era, hardworking farmers worked almost all year round, and Ye Xiuzhi was no exception. She did not take her birthday seriously.
Chu Song took a day off on the pretext of preparing a surprise.
"What's so good about celebrating a birthday? It happens every year anyway, so don't mess it up." Ye Xiuzhi said this, but she was still a little excited in her heart.
When Chu Song is angry, he is really angry, but when he is well-behaved, he makes people feel warm.
Chu Song: "Oh, don't worry about it, I know what's going on."
Ye Xiuzhi didn't quite believe what she said about "knowing the answer" and even confided her "troubles" to her friends in a "melancholy" manner while at work.
"Oh, I don't know what's so good about birthdays. My girl even insisted on preparing some surprise for me. She's grown up and has her own ideas."
Friend: “…”
"By the way, is it like this in your family too?"
Friend: “…………”
Ye Xiuzhi felt very relieved. After working a tiring day, she couldn't wait to go home. From afar, she saw smoke rising from her kitchen.
The great devil Chu Song was squatting at the door, pouring water into the ant hole.
Ye Xiuzhi: “…”
"What are you doing squatting here?"
Although the truth was that Xiang Baoshu had kicked him out of the kitchen for causing trouble, Chu Song remained calm and said, "To greet you as soon as possible."
"You see whether I believe it or not."
"It's better to believe it than not to believe it." Chu Song said mischievously, covered Ye Xiuzhi's eyes, and led her to the main room. The table was already filled with dishes. "Look! Do you like it?"
Ye Xiuzhi opened her eyes. She almost couldn't eat the roasted pig's trotters, spicy fried chicken, braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, and steamed crucian carp.
Just live for this day, and don't plan to live the rest of your life?!
The key point is that not only did Chu Song act recklessly, but Xiang Baoshu also indulged her.
Damn it...
Ye Xiuzhi patted her chest hard to calm herself down.
Chu Song: "How is it? Are you so surprised that you can't speak?"
Ye Xiuzhi stared at her, truly speechless. This was not the way to squander money. How much money and tickets would it cost!
Chu Song: "Are you still so moved that you can't speak?"
Ye Xiuzhi: "You..."
Chu Song nodded, waiting for her to continue, his face full of hope for praise.
Ye Xiuzhi lost her temper immediately. If you don't manage the household, you don't know how expensive food and fuel are. You can't blame her for spending money lavishly. Besides, it's for herself... well, although they all look like her favorite dishes.
It was already done, so she couldn't spoil the fun. Ye Xiuzhi closed her eyes painfully and said with difficulty: "I like it."
Chu Song was not very satisfied with her performance. Ye Xiuzhi forced herself to look away: "What is that?"
“Birthday cake!”
Ye Xiuzhi had never heard of the so-called birthday cake. It was a soft, white layer of cream with strawberries on top. Her first reaction was pain in her heart.
It doesn't look cheap.
Chu Song stretched out his arm and placed it in front of Ye Xiuzhi: "Touch it and try it."
Ye Xiuzhi was confused: "What are you touching?"
"For these creams, I have trained my arms to be as strong as a unicorn. See these beautiful muscles?" Although the words are a bit exaggerated, they are true. Chu Song is full of strength. She doesn't have an egg beater and relies purely on brute force.
Ye Xiuzhi really pinched it, then patted it: "It's quite solid."
"Of course, don't you see who I am?"
The mother and daughter had a vague quarrel for a while, and soon the other members of the Chu family came back one after another. They were surprised by the unusually sumptuous dinner.
"Little sister, is this...is this Chinese New Year?"
"We can't even eat this good during Chinese New Year."
Chai Xueqi couldn't help but worry secretly. If it were another child who was so extravagant and "wasted" food, he would probably be eating stir-fried bamboo shoots with meat by now.
If Chu Song gets scolded later, she should help stop him.
Ye Xiuzhi glanced at the people around her and softened her tone, "Eat, everyone. Why are you just standing there? It's a rare opportunity to have a meal like this. Don't worry, it won't bankrupt the family."
Chu Song: "That's right, that's right."
"Mom, you still have to make a wish. Even though there are no candles, the sense of ceremony cannot be missed."
Ye Xiuzhi gave the man a reproachful look, closed her eyes and began to make a wish.
Chu Song: "If you have a wish, speak it out loud."
"What do you know? It won't work if you tell it to me."
"Only if you tell me, I can find a way to make it happen for you. How can any Bodhisattva or Buddha compare to me?"
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, how disrespectful."
Chu Song sighed. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Obviously, Ms. Ye did not seize this opportunity.
Ye Xiuzhi closed her eyes and silently recited her wishes for a long time. Worried that the Bodhisattva would think she was making too many wishes and was too greedy, she opened her eyes and looked straight at Chu Song, saying meaningfully, "I also hope that the Bodhisattva will bless Chu Song and help him get into university smoothly."
Chu Song: "..." Okay, now I'm really telling her this.
"It's just college, isn't it? It's simple. Don't worry, we have it under control."
Ye Xiuzhi: "You're bragging again. How's your homework review going?"
"Although I didn't put much effort into it, my results are pretty good. It's no exaggeration to say that I have no rivals within a hundred miles."
Ye Xiuzhi: “…”
Xiang Baoshu and Chu Heng were even more silent. Although they were arrogant, it was indeed the fact.
Damn it! Comparing yourself to others really makes you angry.
Chai Xueqi had been working in a textile factory recently and knew little about cram schools. After hearing this, she asked in surprise, "So, won't I be able to go to university in the capital?"
"uh-huh."
Chai Xueqi was extremely envious. In the past, she would have felt jealous, but now she felt only genuine pride in her heart.
Oh, she is worthy of being her Chu Xianxian.
Chu Yaoguo said, "This is a good thing, but you can't be too proud. You should be neither arrogant in victory nor discouraged in defeat. You should keep learning throughout your life and use your intelligence in the right way."
Chu Song continued: "Be a person who makes outstanding contributions to the country, society and the people."
"That's right, this is the ideological awareness we need!"
Captain Chu expressed his satisfaction, saying that his little girl was better than anyone else.
In the end, Ye Xiuzhi had a very happy birthday. The only regret was that she ate too much for dinner and didn't eat much of the cake.
The soft bread is paired with fluffy cream, and the sweetness is offset by the sour and sweet strawberries. The taste is just right and has received unanimous praise from everyone.
After autumn, the days become shorter.
As time passed, it was soon the most difficult and tiring autumn harvest season of the year, and everyone, young and old, began to get busy.
No kidding, during the double harvest season in the 1970s, someone in the neighboring village was so exhausted that he died suddenly.
Chu Song was thinking about how to make himself feel more relaxed, but Ye Xiuzhi waved her hand and generously said that she didn't need his help and should stay at home to concentrate on reviewing for the exam.
"Mom, you're so kind." Chu Song was so touched that his eyes were filled with tears. "Don't worry, I'll bring you a top scorer."
Ye Xiuzhi didn't take it seriously. Chu Song's mouth was deceitful. She always liked to exaggerate. Ten points was five points, five points was one point, and if it was one point... Haha, she might be cursing you in her heart.
In mid-October, an official document was issued from above, confirming the date of the college entrance examination, which was set for December 14th and 15th.
The news spread all over the country.
