Chen Xingling was admitted to Chongqing University, which surprised many people, especially her mother-in-law and two sisters-in-law.
Gu Xuan, who failed the exam, said nothing. Instead, it was his mother-in-law who said the grapes were sour because she couldn't eat them.
"She's already married, and she's still trying to get into college! It's not easy for Aqi to support a large family, and she doesn't even want to help him make money. After a few years of college, won't she get a lot of money?"
Gu Miao muttered sourly: "Is it easy to get into the university in Yucheng? She only studied for one semester, how come she was so lucky to be admitted?"
Liu Ying quickly followed suit: "You can also come here to study in high school, you will definitely do better than her in the exams!"
Gu Xuan said coldly: "Don't daydream. Yucheng University is a well-known and good university in the south, but it's not easy to get into it."
"I heard that it's very easy now." Li Ying repeated Chen Xingling's words and explained: "She said that the college entrance examination has just been resumed now, and students with poor grades are also admitted."
Gu Xuan punctured her fantasy with one word, reminding her: "Last year, the college entrance examination was resumed. This was the first summer college entrance examination this year. From now on, it won't be resumed just now. Ah Miao still has three years to study. The competition will only get bigger year by year, and the test questions will only get harder and harder."
Forehead?
Gu Miao couldn't help but mutter, "Then I-I'll study hard! Aren't there still three years left? I don't believe that the country fisherwoman can pass the exam but I can't!"
"What gives you the right?" Gu Xuan looked at her round waist and said sarcastically, "Did you rely on your fat body? Or did you rely on your unreasonableness?"
Gu Miao's face turned red with embarrassment, and she stamped her feet and complained, "Mom! Look at my sister! She's scolding me in a roundabout way!"
"It's okay." Li Ying quickly comforted her little daughter: "Your sister is joking, don't take it seriously. It's better to be a little fat. Girls are blessed when they are a little fat. Our Miaomiao is the most blessed!"
The eldest daughter's complexion has improved a lot recently, and she has started to talk more. Although she still likes to mock people, she is better than the silent wooden block.
Gu Miao said coquettishly: "Did you hear that? I am so lucky! Just because you didn't do well in the exam, you think others are just as bad as you!"
"Ah Miao!" Li Ying glared at her little daughter.
Gu Xuan was very calm, saying: "I'm not sure about my performance this time. It doesn't matter if I don't do well in the exam. Anyway, I've wanted to repeat the year and prepare well for the college entrance examination next year."
"Right, right, right!" Li Ying narrowed her eyes and gave a thumbs up. "That's the right way to think! If you fail this time, there will always be next time! I think the school in Yucheng is pretty good. Your sister-in-law will be able to get in in one semester. You will definitely do better than her in the future!"
Gu Xuan didn't say anything and continued reading.
Gu Miao, who was standing by, blinked at her old mother and whispered, "Mom, let me tell you something."
"Speak." Li Ying pinched her nails and said, "Don't ask me to go to the kitchen to make something for you to eat. Everything else is fine."
It was indeed cooler during the days when the typhoon blew, but as soon as the typhoon passed, the weather became hot and stuffy again, with heavy humidity.
Li Ying is obese and sweats easily even if he sits still with a fan on. If he moves, he sweats profusely and feels very uncomfortable.
These days she either sits on the balcony to enjoy the cool air or sits in the living room enjoying the fan. She is too lazy to move, let alone work.
Gu Miao glanced at her and whispered, "Damn you, I might as well just go and starve. Let me tell you... Sister Tiantian has married the factory director's son."
"Oh." Li Ying said sourly, "I knew it a long time ago. Your second brother told me. She's even pregnant with someone else's baby, how can she not get married? Her mom and dad brag about it at the neighborhood committee all day long, it's hard not to know! Now most people in Shangjingcheng know it."
After a pause, she snorted disdainfully: "She's already pregnant before she even gets married, isn't that shameful! Her parents don't dare to say anything, and they just keep bragging about their daughter marrying a rich man, they're so proud of it!"
Gu Miao was full of envy and whispered, "I heard that the factory director's house is very big and beautiful, and he has a car. Some people say that the factory director's wife wears a gold ring and necklace, and her whole body is shining with gold."
Li Ying sighed and snorted, "Back then, she kept calling me aunt all the time, and I loved her from the bottom of my heart. I was the one who brought her to Yucheng. Look! Look! Now she turns around and doesn't recognize me!"
Gu Miao's eyes flickered, and after a moment of thought, she said, "Sister Tiantian told me to go play with her when I'm free."
"Really?" Li Ying stared in surprise and asked, "Did you tell her that our whole family moved here?"
Gu Miao shook her head: "She yelled like this a few days ago when she was in a car. Before I could say anything more to her, the car had already driven away."
Gu Xuan, who was standing by, didn't even raise his head, his voice was chilly: "You are really a dead pig that is not afraid of heat. She took advantage of you once and caused great trouble to the eldest and second brothers. Do you want her to take advantage of you a few more times? Are you sick in the brain?"
Forehead?
Gu Miao shrank her neck and dared not say anything more.
Li Ying had another idea and whispered, "Now she has successfully married into the Guo family and has become their young mistress. If you get closer to her, you might be able to get some benefits in the future. Besides, your eldest and second brothers both work in the factory, so it would not be good to offend her."
Gu Miao nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes!"
"You're brainless." Gu Xuan cursed, picked up the book and went to the room.
Since Gu Yi and Zhao Xiaoxing moved out, Gu Xuan and Gu Miao moved into their room, while Li Ying lived alone in the small room.
At that time, Gu Qi was at work, Xiao Huzi was in kindergarten, and Chen Xingling was busy at the construction site. The family of three did not come home for lunch and only ate at home in the morning and evening.
There are fewer people working, but more people who are lazy and greedy. Chen Xingling is exhausted after a busy day. He is too lazy to go home to cook for most of the day, so he just gets some cooked food from the supermarket and is only responsible for making porridge and cooking at home to avoid being too tired.
In the evening, Chen Xingling rode his bicycle into the north gate of the shipyard. There were two large net bags hanging in front of the bicycle, one filled with roasted chicken and the other filled with vegetables and beans.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Gu Yi and Zhao Xiaoxing standing at the stairs, one squatting and the other standing with her head down, and both of them looked a little unhappy.
Chen Xingling stopped the car and shouted, "Ayi! Xiaoxing!"
When the two men saw her, they hurried down to meet her.
"Sister-in-law! You are finally here!"
"Sister-in-law! It's bad! Xiao Xing was fired from the cafeteria!"
Chen Xingling was startled and asked in surprise: "Resigned? What's the matter?"
Zhao Xiaoxing's eyes were red, and tears started falling before she even started talking.
Gu Yi frowned and explained irritably: "She was fired at noon. They told her to take this month's salary and leave, and she was not allowed to continue working in the cafeteria. She didn't do anything, and she didn't do anything wrong. The cafeteria manager just said that they had hired suitable workers to do the job and didn't need so many temporary workers, and then asked her to leave!"
"Is it so sudden?" Chen Xingling asked, "Are you the only one who was fired? Are there others?"
Zhao Xiaoxing shook her head and choked up: "It's just me... I haven't heard of anyone else."
Gu Yi whispered to comfort him: "Don't cry, my brother and sister-in-law will help you find a solution."
Zhao Xiaoxing was extremely nervous and glanced timidly upstairs.
If my mother-in-law knew about this, would she directly ask me to go back to my parents' home?
Once she stops making money, her mother-in-law will definitely dislike her even more, and will most likely no longer agree with them renting a house outside.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xiaoxing felt extremely aggrieved and cried even harder.
"Sister-in-law, I...I have never been lazy! I have done much more work than others! I really haven't done anything wrong!"
"Don't cry, don't cry." Chen Xingling comforted her: "There is always a solution to everything, don't worry."
Zhao Xiaoxing sobbed, "When I was fired, the chef uncle and aunt all helped to intercede for me, saying that I did a very good job, was diligent and willing to learn, and was a junior worth training. But they kept a cold face and didn't say anything. They told me not to come back after I received my salary. They said that temporary workers are temporary workers, and there are regular employees now, so temporary workers have to leave, no room for negotiation."
