"Besides, isn't Qiaoqiao's uncle there too? He's also a leader, so you'll have someone to take care of you. What are you worried about?" Hui Ping advised earnestly. Studying abroad is really a good thing for her. She is married and doesn't have enough education, otherwise she would want to go...
"It's fine at home, and besides, how much money will it cost to go there..." Aunt Xiumei muttered softly.
"I'll take care of the money." Sheng Yanchuan listened to Aunt Xiumei talking about the money and immediately took over the matter. Even if Nanqiao didn't mention it to him, he would not ignore Taohua.
"No, we are all decent people in our family. When have these things ever happened?" Aunt Xiumei felt relieved when she heard that Uncle Nanqiao was there, but compared to such worries, she still hoped that Taohua would be at home. Wouldn't she need to be taken care of by others at home? Besides... that place is far away from home, and even the Bodhisattva may not bless her. If something really happens, what should she do...
"Mom, I must go. I have completed all the formalities and will go at the end of the year." Seeing her mother beating around the bush, Taohua stopped beating around the bush and told her directly her decision.
It's not that she doesn't care, but she now clearly realizes that this is beyond her mother's imagination. She can't understand that studying abroad is a good thing. To her, that distant country is like another world that she can neither hope for nor seek.
Therefore, she has to walk her own path in the future.
Taohua's words made Aunt Xiumei, who was sitting on the chair, look up. She was speechless for a long time, her lips trembling, but she didn't say anything in the end.
"You are all capable now, you are all capable now, let's go, let's go," Aunt Xiumei said, and got up weakly and went back to her room. Sheng Yanchuan and Taohua looked at their mother's back and felt mixed emotions. Their mother seemed to have aged a lot.
They love her, but they can't tie themselves to her because of her. It's the helplessness of being a child.
"Okay, go and do your own things. You don't have to stay here. You can come back next week to get your household registration documents." Father Sheng watched his wife go back to the house, waved his hand and asked Sheng Yanchuan and the others to do their own things. According to his wishes, he didn't want his children to run so far, but he also knew that the children had grown up and they had their own way.
"Okay, thank you, Dad," Taohua said
"I'll go see mom," Sheng Yanchuan said as he headed towards the bedroom. However, no matter he knocked on the door or called out, there was no response from inside. If it weren't for the sighing sound, Sheng Yanchuan would have wanted to break in.
"Go back, let her digest it herself." Uncle Sheng came up and patted Sheng Yanchuan on the shoulder, asking him to go home early.
"Okay, then if you have anything, feel free to call me. I'll find time to come back in the next few days."
"Okay, go ahead, don't worry."
"good"
Uncle Sheng looked at Sheng Yanchuan's back as he left and sighed. The children have all grown up...
Looking at the closed door, Uncle Sheng did not knock. He shook his head helplessly and turned to leave. What he said just now was to advise Sheng Yanchuan, but it was also the truth. She had to figure this out by herself. Others had said everything they should and could say, and the rest was up to her.
Sheng Yanchuan walked to the door and saw Tao Hua standing outside.
"Wait for me?" Sheng Yanchuan asked
"Well, brother, do you think mom will agree? Isn't it wrong for me to do this today?" Taohua lowered her head, thinking of her mother's back as she left just now, and her heart was filled with pain.
"Mom and Dad will understand. If you are not in a hurry to go back to school today, talk to Mom in the afternoon and talk it over. I think even if she disagrees, she won't deliberately stop you."
"Okay, I will talk to you nicely and I will never argue with you again."
"Okay, call me if you have anything."
"Okay, brother, you should go home quickly. My sister-in-law can't leave without someone." Taohua felt more at ease with her brother's encouragement. When she sent Sheng Yanchuan away, she was thinking about how to persuade her mother in the afternoon.
Looking at the car going farther and farther away, and then looking at the door behind her, Taohua took a long breath, turned around and walked in.
The task is arduous, she must not be discouraged
On the other side, when Sheng Yanchuan returned home, Nanqiao was still eating breakfast. Seeing Sheng Yanchuan coming back, Nanqiao was a little dazed. She had just woken up and was not fully awake yet. Now seeing someone who seemed to have been out for a short time coming back, Nanqiao began to doubt whether what Sheng Yanchuan told her about going to Sheng's house in the morning was real or a dream.
"You went to your parents' place, didn't you?" Nanqiao raised his head, holding a glass of juice and bread in his hands, with a silly and cute look on his face.
"It's over, and I'm back again," Sheng Yanchuan said, and went to the sink on the bar in front of him to wash his hands, took off his coat, and sat down opposite the South Bridge.
"You've been gone for less than an hour, right? Have you solved it?" Nanqiao glanced at the wall clock. Although she had just woken up, she had been half asleep and half awake since Sheng Yanchuan left, so she probably didn't sleep for very long.
"It's not resolved, but I've said everything that needs to be said. Dad doesn't object, Mom doesn't agree, and no one else said anything either." Sheng Yanchuan thought about his father's attitude and felt that it was only a matter of time before his mother agreed. After all, Taohua was an adult, and she could make her own decisions. Her parents' firm opposition might not have much effect on Taohua's personality. But what surprised Sheng Yanchuan the most was that Sheng Yanjun didn't say a word about this matter. According to past practice, he, as the eldest brother, always liked to say a few words.
"What if mom doesn't agree?" Nanqiao asked
"What can I do? I have to persuade her slowly and let her digest it slowly. Taohua is also stubborn. Once she makes up her mind, even ten cows can't pull her back."
"That's true," Nanqiao said thoughtfully, and suddenly realized, "That's not right. Excluding the time spent on the road, you can't sit in the house for long. Could it be that you went straight to the point as soon as you entered the door?"
