Seeing her nod, Zhou's father stopped asking her and changed the subject, "You said before that you could apply for a scholarship. When can you apply?"
"It will be next year." Zhou Nier paused when she heard this.
"So long," Zhou's father said dissatisfiedly, "Then you should save some money during this period. Your family has spent so much money because of you, so we can't give you more living expenses. As for the scholarship, you should send it back home as soon as you receive it."
"Hmm" Zhou Nier's eyes flashed with disappointment, and she hummed sullenly. Her parents were very good to her. They sent her to Shanghai to go to university and gave her a lot of living expenses, but the premise was that she did not affect her younger brother. Once her younger brother's interests were involved, she would always be the one standing aside.
For example, when she came to Shanghai to study, her family only gave her 100 yuan, saying it was living expenses for her freshman year, and that this was already most of the family's money. But when she encountered problems, in order to win over the Ma family for her brother's marriage, she still gave 200 yuan. This is what is called "no money at home". Zhou Nier was a little disappointed.
"Ni'er, your parents are doing this for your own good. Your brother is the only boy in our family. When your parents get old, they will have to rely on him. You and your sister also need your brother from your natal family to support you, so that you can have confidence in your husband's family. We are saving money now to find a good wife for your brother, not only for him, but also for you." Zhou's father said this earnestly, but Zhou Ni'er became more and more disappointed. She could not read a single word, and she only knew how to hang around in the village, teasing cats and dogs all day long. She was not good at doing anything, but more at making trouble. How could such a person be trusted? It would be good if she was not sold.
But Zhou Nier thought about it, but she didn't have the courage to contradict her parents. No matter how much her parents loved her, her brother would always be the weak spot that could not be touched. Only by obeying her parents could she be the well-behaved, smart and sensible daughter in their hearts.
