They were both very embarrassed when they heard this, and they didn't know how to comfort Sister Wen. After a long pause, Meimei said, "What is your brother-in-law going to do now? He can't just wait for you at home every day."
"I thought so too, but now that the results are out, he stays at home alone every day, feeling unhappy, and I can't say this." Wen Jie knew very well the problems they were facing, but she had to wait until her husband calmed down before saying anything.
"Then wait for a while, and things will get better slowly." Meimei, an unmarried person, didn't know how to deal with such a thing. She, an outsider, felt anxious just listening to it, let alone Sister Wen, who could only speak to comfort her.
What can Wen Jie do now? She can only take things one step at a time.
When Song Zhi returned, he saw candied haws being sold on the road, so he bought two strings. Panpan wanted to eat some immediately, but it was not safe to eat candied haws while riding a bicycle, so Song Zhi did not give her any. Although Panpan only had a few front teeth, she wanted to try anything new she saw, and would put it in her mouth without even noticing.
After arriving home, Song's mother was washing soybeans, and Song Zhi was helping to peel peanuts. Panpan was the only idle person left at home. No, he was not idle either. He was struggling with the candied haws. In short, they were worried that the seeds inside the candied haws would get stuck in his throat after he swallowed them, so they shaved off the words inside and gave him a candied haws in his hand. Since the sugar on the outside of the candied haws was a bit sticky due to his two big front teeth, it was particularly difficult for Panpan to eat it, and his expression was very painful.
Song Zhi couldn't help laughing when he saw this. Song's mother also looked up and thought that this child was just like his mother. She smiled and shook her head.
The people at home were busy when they heard the radio calling for Gu Huaijin's home phone number. However, just in case, they left their home phone number for the college entrance examination, and all the admission letters and other things were sent to their home.
Anyway, thinking that the test results might be out, I immediately stood up, my heart pounding, and ran to the phone booth.
Panpan watched his mother walk away, and the candied haws in his hand no longer smelled good, so he wanted to run out too.
"Panpan, wait for grandma to take you out." Mother Song quickly wiped the water off her hands, caught up with Panpan, took his hand, and the two of them walked out the door together.
"Hello." Song Zhi took the phone breathlessly.
Mother Gu was beaming over the phone, her voice much gentler than usual, "Zhizhi, your admission letter has arrived. That's incredible! You scored 360 points on the test."
As soon as Mother Gu finished speaking, Song Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. This was not much different from Song Zhi's estimated score. She estimated that she would be around 350 points.
"Is this the acceptance letter that just arrived today?"
"It was just delivered. It wasn't even warm in my hands when I called you immediately. I saw that others had been notified a long time ago. Who knows how they would do things." Mother Gu has been worried for the past few days. It's not that she was worried that her daughter-in-law would not pass the exam, but she was afraid that her daughter-in-law would feel uncomfortable.
"I'm also wondering why it's so slow this time." The college entrance examination has just begun, and various systems are not perfect. There are quite a few people who go to college under false names at this time. Song Zhi couldn't help but feel nervous, always afraid that something unexpected would happen.
The current system is to apply to schools first and then take exams to select the best candidates for admission. This is better than choosing a school after the results come out, as you have a better idea in mind. Therefore, Song Zhixin was also very nervous.
"It doesn't matter whether it's slow or not. You're finally out now. No one around you has better grades than you." Mother Gu and Rong were both very happy.
"I'm just lucky." Song Zhi has always been humble in his words and deeds, and spoke politely to Gu's mother.
"Okay, I don't have anything to do. I just want to tell you the news quickly. When will you be back for the New Year?"
"Early February, probably when Huaijin will be on vacation."
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go out for a walk while the weather is good." Mother Gu hung up the phone quickly with a smile on her face.
Song Zhi looked at the hung up phone in his hand and didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment. He knew without thinking that the anxiety that Gu's mother had been holding back for a few days was finally released. She could go out for a good walk and show off to her little sisters.
"Mom...Mom." Song Zhi looked towards the voice and saw Panpan running towards him wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket. Song Zhi's heart skipped a beat. Well, as expected, Panpan fell down. Song Zhi hurried over, and Song's mother also rushed forward anxiously, but Panpan got up by himself and smiled at his mother. Song Zhi bent down to see if he was injured. Fortunately, he was wearing thick clothes in winter, otherwise he would have bled.
Song Zhi saw that he was walking unsteadily, so he took his little hand and walked slowly.
"Are the results out yet?" Song's mother asked after she met Song Zhitou.
Song Zhi nodded, "I passed the exam."
"I knew it, I knew I could pass." After saying that, she breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "What do you want to eat tonight? Mom will buy some groceries and make it for you."
"Hot pot?" Song Zhi asked tentatively.
"That thing is spicy, Panpan can't eat it." Song's mother denied it.
Song Zhi curled her lips in disappointment. She didn't know what dishes to order for her, and she disagreed. Ever since Song's mother came, the food at home couldn't be oily or spicy, and had to be light and nourishing.
So it's healthy, but it's inevitable that my mouth is tasteless, and I want to eat something fresh. "So what should I eat?"
Song's mother looked at her daughter's face, hesitated for a moment, and then thought, "Never mind, eating once in a while won't hurt. If her daughter wants to eat, she can eat it." "Let's have hot pot as you say. Let's go buy some groceries first."
Song Zhi's face instantly became happy. The hot pot soup base prepared by Song's mother was particularly delicious. She had eaten it several times before, but Song's mother did not like hot pot because it was bad for her stomach, so they didn't make it often at home.
Whenever she thinks about it now, her mouth waters, mainly because it tastes so good.
When the three of them walked to the vegetable market, people came to greet them one after another. Song's mother was a frequent visitor here, and she could talk to everyone.
"Did you buy meat?" Song Zhi asked when he saw the meat stall.
"Buy some. It's a pity there is no mutton here, otherwise it would taste better in hot pot." Song's mother said with a hint of regret.
"Eat whatever is available. We are not that picky." Song Zhi said indifferently and walked over to cut a pound of lean meat.
Song Zhi and Song's mother continued to walk forward carrying the meat, stopping from time to time to buy a little here and there. Soon their hands were full, and Panpan had to let Song's mother hold them.
"I've been telling you not to stop. Why are you buying so much? You can't finish it." Song's mother's idea is to buy as much as you can eat and buy fresh ones next time you eat.
"Oh, it's cold now. It won't go bad easily if you keep it at home. Why do you have to run back and forth?" Song Zhi disagreed.
"You are right no matter what you say." Song's mother was too lazy to argue with her, so she stopped talking, and Song Zhile's ears were at peace.
