Cheng Jinghong felt puzzled and wondered what important matter his father had that he came to his room to talk to him so early in the morning.
When Cheng Guozhong told him about Xu Zhixin and asked him to stop liking her and not to have any illusions about her, and that Xu Zhixin looked down on him, Cheng Jinghong was devastated and could not accept it.
But Cheng Jinghong is a smart man. He recalled that when he first met Xu Zhixin yesterday, Xu Zhixin's attitude towards him was quite friendly, but then she suddenly became very distant. Although she has always been polite to him, she obviously wants to keep a distance from him. It seems that Xu Zhixin has seen through his feelings, but doesn't like him, so she did this.
Thinking about Xu Zhixin's conditions, and then thinking about my own, I am obviously not worthy of her. I'd better stop dreaming and it would be smart to make myself look bad. Otherwise, I will just look pitiful and ridiculous.
Cheng Jinghong nodded to his father, "Dad, I understand."
Cheng Guozhong was relieved, and he patted his son's shoulder. "You are so good and outstanding, you will definitely meet a good girl who appreciates and likes you in the future. Don't think about love now, just focus on studying, study hard, and think about love and marriage after you graduate and get a job.
Although our family is well off in the countryside, it is not easy to support you in this high school. You must study hard and don’t let your mother and I down.”
Cheng Jinghong nodded vigorously and assured: "Dad, don't worry, I will study hard and learn hard, and I will never let you and my mother down for cultivating me."
His tuition for one semester in high school is 5.6 yuan, books cost 2 yuan, food expenses for a month are 3.2 yuan, and accommodation is 1.1 yuan. It adds up to a lot of money, which is a huge expense for a peasant family. It is really not easy for his parents to support him to go to high school. He will really let his parents down if he doesn't study hard.
A relieved smile appeared on Cheng Guozhong's old face, and he was completely relieved.
…
When Xu Zhixin went to work, she saw Cheng Jinghong in the yard. He just gave her a polite smile and went into the house without even saying hello. He was not as attentive as last night. It was a bit strange, but it was a good thing for her that Cheng Jinghong did this.
It would be annoying if Cheng Jinghong was always as attentive as he was last night, or even pestered her.
Although Cheng Jinghong was not the same as last night, her plan to build a house and move out of the Cheng family had not changed, because she had planned to build a house and live in her own house since early on, and did not want to keep staying at the Cheng family.
Xu Zhixin went to see the housing plots first as planned. While looking for pig grass, she also took the opportunity to carefully check out all the housing plots in the village.
There are quite a few vacant residential plots in the village, but I’ve heard from Zhu Yong, who is very knowledgeable, that most of them have owners and have been allocated to the team members.
There are a total of eleven residential plots left. The one she liked is next to the supply and marketing cooperative's sales outlet, about twelve or thirteen meters away from the outlet. That plot is about seventy square meters and is right on the roadside. She estimated that she could build a small courtyard with 20 bungalows, two bedrooms and a living room, with a toilet and kitchen all in the small courtyard.
But she wanted more than 70 square meters of land by herself, and she was afraid that the team leader would not agree to give it to her.
A house of more than 70 square meters built in the countryside usually houses one family. A family with one or two people usually builds a house on an area of 30 to 40 square meters.
But she felt that a house built on thirty or forty square meters of land was too small, and there was no way to build a yard. She liked houses with yards, where she could bask in the sun and dry clothes and other things.
As for the captain, we have to find a way to get him to agree.
Thinking deeply in her mind, Xu Zhixin walked towards the village entrance, preparing to go out of the village to the woods where she usually looked for pig grass.
Now that she had chosen the land, it was time to get to work. As for talking to the team leader about building a house, she planned to talk to him during the lunch break...
Sister Kuan!
Suddenly, a familiar beautiful figure came into view and Xu Zhixin stopped.
Looking at the young woman who entered the village, wearing a beautiful blouse, with lipstick on her lips and curly hair, who was considered very fashionable and stylish at that time, Xu Zhixin's eyes flashed with surprise.
How come the lady who I met at the black market and bought her a Rolex for a huge sum of money, now appears here?
