Chapter 54 New Student Registration
Tao Xiaoxi went to the county town to find Zhao Bin. Li Nanshan said he would take her there, but she refused and asked him to stay at home to look after his father and sister and make sure nothing happened again. Li Nanshan had no choice but to give up.
The fact is that Tao Xiaoxi wants to get the medicine out of the space. It is convenient for her to do it alone, but it would be difficult for Li Nanshan to follow her.
Zhao Bin looked at those rare medicinal herbs, admiring them and sighing with emotion: "You said that I hired so many people to collect herbs for me, but none of them can compare to the herbs you collected. You must have discovered a treasure trove, right?" Zhao Bin was half joking and half testing.
Tao Xiaoxi smiled and said, "Boss Zhao, you taught me the rules of the trade. Please don't break them. Also, I didn't collect all these herbs. I also grow them myself."
Zhao Bin was impressed. "I admire you! I was just saying it casually, that's all, haha!"
Tao Xiaoxi didn't pursue the matter any further, took the money and was about to leave.
"Don't forget the trip to Bozhou, it's the day after tomorrow." Zhao Bin reminded again.
Tao Xiaoxi slapped her forehead and said, "I almost forgot, my sister-in-law is also going to school the day after tomorrow. What a coincidence, can we postpone it?"
"Postponed? I've already agreed with them. Mainly because that day will have the most dealers, and I think this is the best time for us to get to know people."
Tao Xiaoxi was also embarrassed, "What time is our bus?"
"Four o'clock in the afternoon."
Tao Xiaoxi said with all her might, "Okay, I'll come when the time comes."
"That's good. I'll wait for you then."
The tuition fee was settled. When Li Nanshan handed the tuition fee to the girl, even she couldn't help but burst into tears, choking and unable to speak.
"Study hard and don't let your sister-in-law down. This money was collected for you by your sister-in-law by selling medicine." Li Nanshan said.
Li Nanqiu moved to her third sister-in-law and called out "Third sister-in-law!"
"Alright, alright, stop being so sentimental. From now on, the sea is wide for fish to leap, and the sky is high for birds to fly. I know your heart isn't set on Mantou Village. From now on, just flap your wings as hard as you can, fly as high and as far as you can. We promise we won't hold you back."
These words made everyone present laugh and the atmosphere became relaxed.
On the day of registration, the second brother drove a tractor, and half the village people came to take Nanqiu to school. At that moment, they finally saw Nanqiu as an independent person, the first college student in Mantou Village, and their eyes showed a hint of envy and admiration.
Li Nanqiu felt that this was enough. She had always lived like a hedgehog so that when others looked down on her, she could fight back. Like a boy, she was not bound by worldly constraints or rules. She did not dare to say that she lived willfully, but at least she lived fairly. She was like a female warrior, fighting for herself and for her rights. Undoubtedly, she had achieved a phased victory.
So many people came to see him off, but Old Man Li didn't come. If he came, it would be a slap in his own face, so he didn't come. He valued his face above everything else.
But Mrs. Li came. Originally, Old Man Li didn't let her come, but she came anyway. She held her daughter's hand and just wiped her tears, unable to say a word.
"It's time to set off, otherwise we will miss the bus." The second brother Li Nanhai shouted.
Li Nanqiu let go of her mother's hand and asked her to go back. "Mom, please take care of yourself."
"Hey!" Mrs. Li waved her hands vigorously and urged, "Come back during the holidays? Come back during the holidays!"
But Li Nanqiu did not answer her mother. She had to admit that when she saw her mother almost begging her to go home, she felt a little bit of pleasure in her heart. It was like when she was a child and no one believed that you could get 100 points in the exam, but you ended up passing. Li Nanqiu also had some pleasure of revenge in her heart at this time, but it was not enough to offset the sadness of leaving the place where she was born and raised.
But until the tractor was on the road, she did not give her mother an accurate answer, maybe she would go back, maybe she would not go back.
Li Nanhai's tractors could only be delivered to the villages, not to the provincial capital or even the county town. Li Nanqiu had to walk the rest of the way by himself.
Fortunately, her third brother and his wife agreed to take her to register, otherwise she would not be able to carry all the luggage by herself.
"Have you got everything?" Li Nanshan asked.
Li Nanqiu naturally thought the question was directed at her, and quickly replied, "I've got them all."
Unexpectedly, Li Nanshan said, "I didn't ask you."
Tao Xiaoxi laughed happily, "I've brought everything with me. I'll just leave from the station when the time comes."
Only then did Li Nanqiu realize that her third sister-in-law was also going on a long journey today.
"Sister-in-law, can't you take me to school?" Li Nanqiu asked nervously.
"Why, the fourth daughter of the Li family, who always claims to be fearless, is now afraid?" Tao Xiaoxi joked.
"It's not that I'm afraid," Li Nanqiu pursed her lips, "I just feel it's of great significance, and I hope my third sister-in-law will witness it." Whether her third brother will send her off is secondary, she hopes her sister-in-law will definitely go.
"Don't worry, I will make sure to deliver it to the destination." Tao Xiaoxi promised.
The three of them headed south, taking a bus and then a train. After seven or eight hours, they finally arrived in Anshi, the provincial capital.
There was a school bus at the train station to pick up new students. The three of them climbed onto the bus and waited for everyone on the bus to arrive at the school.
Li Nanshan looked at the time in the car and found that there was not much time left for his wife.
"Why don't you just send it here? It's too late for you." Li Nanshan reminded.
Tao Xiaoxi grabbed Li Nanshan's wrist. Sure enough, she and Zhao Bin's car would leave in more than three hours. It seemed that they would not be able to catch up no matter what.
"Then I can only send you here, Nanqiu. Next, let your brother take you there." Tao Xiaoxi said to her sister-in-law.
When Li Nanqiu heard this, his eyes turned red, "Sister-in-law, thank you for sending me here!"
Tao Xiaoxi held her hand and spoke earnestly, "I know you're capable and you have nothing to fear, but I want to tell you that I'm proud of you. You're the first female college student in Mantou Village, and that's something you should be proud of for the rest of your life. So from now on, you don't need to worry about anything. Live your life to the fullest and prove it to everyone, and most importantly, to yourself. Your persistence is not wrong and it's meaningful. We women are no worse than men."
Tao Xiaoxi's words stirred up a storm in Li Nanqiu's heart. She said everything she wanted to say but was too embarrassed to say. She burst into tears and held her sister-in-law's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll remember this. I will prove it to everyone!"
"Then I feel relieved." Tears welled up in Tao Xiaoxi's eyes.
Li Nanshan turned his head away, feeling sad in his heart. He was so lucky to marry her.
As the school bus started to move, Li Nanqiu waved goodbye to his sister-in-law. Tao Xiaoxi suddenly called out, "There's a new notebook in your bag with something stuck in it. Remember to take it out."
Do you still remember the day you reported to university, who sent you there, and what the senior who picked you up looked like?
