"Don't be so irritable. Let me fan you." Fu Qingshan took out a palm-leaf fan from behind like a magician. "Let me tell you something about the family compound. Can you calm down?"
The windless summer night was stuffy and restless, but the wind from the cattail leaf fan brought a rare coolness, and only then did Qiao Xinyi start to like Fu Qingshan a little more.
She squinted her eyes and leaned against the back of the chair, biting the washed peach in her hand. Her expression told Fu Qingshan that she was listening with her ears open.
"Several students in the family compound did not get it right in the exam this year, and several of them got better scores than usual."
"There are two families in the staff building behind. Their child's grades are more than ten times higher than they expected. They said that his grades will have no problem getting into a normal school in the province. The family is so happy that they bought some firecrackers to set off downstairs at night."
"I didn't expect that the firecrackers would poke Zhu's mother in the lungs. Before the firecrackers were finished, Zhu's mother came with water to put out the firecrackers, and the two families started arguing with Zhu's mother."
"Mrs. Zhu blamed them for being so ostentatious, which means she knew that her grandson missed the exam this year due to illness. How dare these neighbors celebrate so ostentatiously in the family compound? She said that they were all poking her grandson's heart."
"The two neighbors were very angry and said that Mrs. Zhu was unreasonable. Captain Zhu and his wife went to the neighbor's house to apologize."
"While they were arguing, Captain Zhu's daughter started crying and wailing upstairs, saying that her brother had jumped off the building."
"The sister-in-law in the building behind was shouting in the corridor, and she realized that Captain Zhu's son had jumped out of his window. Fortunately, the Zhu family lived on the third floor, and he was on the fifth floor. Even if his head wasn't hit, his life would have been saved."
Fu Bailu was startled and asked hurriedly, "Is the child okay? Should we send him to the hospital?"
"Send him to the hospital, his hand is broken." Fu Qingshan nodded, "Coincidentally, it's the right hand that is broken."
Fu Bailu blurted out, "Is this retribution? The child is so innocent."
After saying this, Fu Bailu shook her head and said, "It must be a coincidence. If there is any retribution, it should be on a teenager."
Qiao Xinyi swallowed the peach in her mouth and frowned, "It's been so long since the college entrance examination, why hasn't Captain Zhu sent his mother back home yet?
He kept the old lady at home all the time. The old lady was the kind of person who would admit her mistakes and kept saying that she had good intentions. Was she deliberately trying to provoke his son? ”
"Why didn't she send him? On the day when the truth was revealed, Captain Fang bought a train ticket and arranged for his men to drive his mother to the train station. He also called his brothers back home to pick her up at the train station."
"Mrs. Zhu was unwilling to go back, so it was Captain Fang who personally stuffed her into the car."
"I didn't expect that when we got to the train station, Mrs. Zhu laid on the tracks and threatened to commit suicide, saying that if she was forced to go back to her hometown, she would die at the train station. She almost scared the train station staff and the soldier who sent her to the train to tears."
"She is like this. No one dares to force her to get on the train. The little soldier can refund the train ticket and take her back to the family home."
"No one here in the family compound knows about this, but a few of us in the army know about it."
Fu Bailu thought about it and thought, "How could she dare to go back? If she goes back to her hometown, the child's grandfather, the child's aunt, uncle, etc., a group of people would scold her to death with just one spit."
"She stayed in the family compound. She is the elder, and her son and daughter-in-law can blame her in their hearts, but if anyone dares to scold her, she will definitely not go back at this time. If she wants to go back, she has to wait until the incident has passed and her family doesn't want to scold her before she goes back."
Fu Bailu is the elder, so he can immediately think of the reason why Old Lady Zhu was willing to return to her hometown.
"Everyone in the family says so." Fu Qingshan once again thanked his good fortune for not having a mother like Zhu Lao Niang or Cheng Lao Niang.
"Captain Zhu's son was sent to the hospital yesterday. The doctor noticed that the child was in a bad condition and specifically told the family not to stimulate the child. Captain Zhu took a leave of absence last night and personally sent his mother back home early this morning."
Qiao Xinyi sighed, "Captain Zhu should have been more assertive and sent the child back earlier. How could a child jump off a building? The child knows how much he hates Old Lady Zhu. Not to mention seeing Old Lady Zhu, hearing her voice would be a mental shock to the child."
No child likes to hear "I'm doing this for your own good, I mean well".
If something happens, Grandma Zhu should admit her mistake to her grandson, apologize, and go back home as soon as possible, instead of yelling in front of the victim that I did it on purpose, I meant well but ended up doing something bad, and that the child must not have been forced into this state.
Let's talk about this at home. Qiao Xinyi and Mrs. Zhu are not that close. She is still in the hospital taking care of the child, so Qiao Xinyi didn't go to the Zhu family.
If she went there at this critical moment, people might think she went there on purpose to provoke the child.
On the day when the news about reporter Qian's interview with Qiao Xinyi and her family was published, Fu Bailu went out early in the morning and bought more than a dozen newspapers.
"Keep one for my hometown to burn for Qingshan's mother, one for the Fu family's ancestors, a few for our own collection, and a few for my acquaintances in the town and county."
Fu Bailu happily made the arrangements and then asked Qiao Xinyi, "When will you buy the train tickets for me? Xiao Jing and Xiao Xi are still young, so I will be back in two days."
"If you're in a hurry to go back, I'll drive to the train station to buy one at noon." The two babies are well-behaved, Xiaozhou and Xiaoyu are well-behaved, Qiao Xinyi is fine recently, and it's okay for Fu Bailu to go back to her hometown for a few days.
Fu Bailu was about to nod in agreement when Yan Hua's laughter suddenly came from outside the door.
"Xinyi, Sister Fu, are you all home? I'm here to tell you the good news!"
The door was not closed, so Yan Hua walked in.
"Qingshan just received a call from the Ministry of Education, saying that Xinyi is the top scorer in this year's national college entrance examination! Qingshan is now surrounded by a group of old men in the office, come back, I'll come back first to tell you the good news!"
"Xinyi really gave our province and our mayor face! The Minister of Education said he would come to visit our home in person.
Oh, yes, Qingshan also received a call from his hometown, the school listed on your junior high and high school diplomas, and the leader of the city's education department who helped you at the time, all called to congratulate you. ”
"The junior high school and high school in Qingshan's hometown directly hung banners at the school gate. You got your diploma from their school. Even if you are a student of their school, their principal is very proud."
The two principals talked to Fu Qingshan on the phone about everything, and they specifically informed Fu Qingshan and Qiao Xinyi that they would do the high-profile thing, and Qiao Xinyi, the person involved, would not know about it later.
"Xinyi is bringing honor to our hometown?" Fu Bailu asked.
"Yes." Sister-in-law Yan Hua nodded and smiled. "Those two principals had to use a lot of connections to get Qingshan's contact information. They laughed so hard on the phone, they were so happy.
For a small place like their county to come up with such an amazing thing, they have to find a way to publicize it, right? This should be an example to encourage students. ”
