Song Ruyun and Song Zihao entered an intense period of study. When they returned home, they were not as noisy as before. They studied as long as they had time, knowing that their grades were fine.
Neither of them was proud or complacent, and Song Zhiyao was very pleased about this. Since she knew what major her sister was going to study in the future, she and Qin Hanchen would look for some law-related books whenever they had time.
At the same time, they did not forget Song Zihao. Their hospital built a library, and sometimes they would borrow some books from there for the two siblings to read.
Although the attentive Qin Hanchen did not ask Song Zhiyao, he knew from her actions which books his younger brothers and sisters wanted, and even wrote a letter to Qin Wenlong asking him to send them from the capital.
He also sent back many photos they took in their daily lives. Yang Qian saw that her son smiled more often than before, and she felt happy even though she was just seeing the photos.
As parents, we are naturally pleased when our children are willing to share their lives with us.
Someone had said something sarcastic before, "Yang Qian, your son has been raised in vain. He gave up everything in the capital for a woman and doesn't take you as his parents seriously at all."
In contrast now, those people’s children are indeed around them, but the family quarrels every day, and they will not tell them anything, and if they do, it is only for their own interests.
What's the point of using benefits to tie children to their side? Their son is not around, so what? He often writes to them and shares every bit of his life with them.
They would call back no matter whether there was something or not. Their son and future daughter-in-law were so motivated that they didn't have to worry about anything. Thinking of this, Yang Qian felt very proud.
He said to Qin Wenlong who was reading a letter, "Those people in the family compound always say that our family is quiet, while theirs is lively and they quarrel over trivial matters all day long.
You don't know the Zhang family next door? Their daughter-in-law is lazy and eats all day long. She doesn't work and is very noisy. She just gave birth to a son and is very proud of it.
"Mr. Zhang's wife has been afraid to say anything lately. She is no longer as confident as before in front of me and even speaks in a timid tone. It seems that she has been tormented by her daughter-in-law."
She didn't tell anyone about other families. Everyone living in the same housing estate knows each other's situation, and no matter how things go, they can tell the difference. Their home is quiet, and the couple lives a very leisurely life.
Their daughter is about to enter college and will have her own life in the future. The old couple will just take care of themselves and they won’t have to worry about their son and daughter-in-law after they get married.
She has decided not to worry about it in the future. She doesn't want to be like other neighbors, who worry endlessly and end up exhausting themselves physically and mentally.
Qin Wenlong was very happy to see Yang Qian's open-minded attitude. "Now you know the pain involved. We will not care about our son and daughter-in-law anymore. You see, Old Zhang sighs all day long. I see him frowning at work."
"When our son and daughter-in-law ask us to look after their grandchildren, we go and help for a while, and then we leave when they are done and don't get involved in their lives.
Or maybe I could bring the grandchildren back to the capital and send them back when they miss their parents. "Yang Qian has already thought about it.
If it were before, she would still think about the lively family life. But now, in a lively family and among people who are easy to get along with, various conflicts will arise over time.
Seeing that Yang Qian was thinking so far ahead, Qin Wenlong also said, "Your son won't get married for a few months, and we don't know when we'll have grandchildren. After they get married, don't push them to have children.
After a period of communication, Qin Wenlong still knows Song Zhiyao very well, and he is also very satisfied with her current state. In his opinion, young people should have such drive, and their country will become better and better.
He could guess that his daughter-in-law would not consider having children so soon, so he told Yang Qian about it first so that she would not be so excited when Song Zhiyao told her about it.
When Yang Qian heard Qin Wenlong say this, she rolled her eyes at him, "You pretend to be so sensible, but now you make me sound like an unreasonable person. I've already said I won't get involved in their affairs, and I know what kind of person Zhiyao is.
It is impossible for her to live a simple life. She is a person with great ambitions. How can I ask her not to work because of her grandchildren? I can't afford the consequences if she delays important things."
Qin Wenlong gave Yang Qian a thumbs up and praised her, "I would say that Comrade Yang Qian has a high level of awareness, which is unmatched by ordinary people."
Qin Hanchen had vaguely mentioned in his previous letter that they had such a conversation because he didn't want his parents to put pressure on Song Zhiyao, especially since they were going to get married in a few months.
As a husband and a son, he has the obligation to serve as a bridge of communication instead of making both sides unhappy.
Song Zhiyao didn't know either, because she had revealed that she didn't want to have children so soon after marriage. She wanted to do a good job on the project at hand and research more vaccines so that children can prevent various diseases from an early age.
When Song Zhiyao told him this, the light in her eyes shocked him. Qin Hanchen supported her without thinking and did his parents' work well.
Time quickly came to the hot summer, and everyone changed into summer clothes. Today was Song Ruyun's college entrance examination day, and the whole family went out to send her to school.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
Uncle, aunt, the Song family and Qin Hanchen, this powerful team stood out at the school gate. The older classmates looked at her with envy.
Song Ruyun did not feel any pressure because her family valued her. Instead, she was full of motivation. During this period, she also told her parents about her thoughts.
What she received was full support. Song Ruyun felt very happy. Facing the tense moment of the day, she felt extremely relaxed and walked into the school with brisk steps.
Her good friend Liu Yuting was happy to see her so relaxed, "Ruyun, I know you are confident when you look at me like this. Let's work hard towards our dream together. We agreed that we must get into the same university."
Liu Yuting and Song Ruyun wanted to study different things, but they both had the same goal, which was to get into the best university in the capital and let more people know that they, girls, were no worse than boys.
"Well, Yuting, let's continue to be classmates in college, let's work hard together!" Song Ruyun made a cheering gesture to Liu Yuting.
The days of the college entrance examination passed in a flash. After the exam, no one in the family asked Song Ruyun how she performed. It was just like an ordinary exam and she could do whatever she was supposed to do.
After that, they sent Song Zihao to the high school entrance examination together, without favoring one over the other.
But he was a boy after all, so his family only accompanied him for one day, and he went alone for the rest of the days.
