Dinner was still lively with several tables of people eating, but the scene was completely different. Yesterday everyone was happy, but today everyone was grinning.
"Little sister, I heard that it's very difficult to get into university! I heard that there were more than a hundred people who took the college entrance examination in Yucheng last year, but only a few passed!"
"Yes! And I heard that the admission score of Yucheng University is very high, not everyone can get in. You love to study, but you don't have to find the most difficult things to do!"
"Little sister, other people study and take exams in order to get a job and marry a husband. You said you already have a husband as great as Gu Qi, so why are you still studying?"
Chen Xingling glanced at the brothers who were all teasing, and shouted, "I just want to ask you one question - do you support it?"
"Haha! Support, support!"
"If you really want to go, I will definitely support you!"
"I'm afraid we don't need to provide you with any support in terms of activities! Haha! We used to take turns picking you up from school because it was far from home. Now that you've married and moved to the city, it's up to Gu Qi to pick you up! Thinking about how he has to coax you to school every day, I can't help but feel sorry for Gu Qi!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"You studied for several years, repeated a grade and took make-up exams several times, and finally got a junior high school diploma. High school must be even harder. Maybe after studying for ten years or so, you should be able to get into college. From now on, it will be hard for Gu Qi!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"It's okay. When little Tiger grows up, he will read with you!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
My mother and sisters-in-law had completely different attitudes. They all kept saying it was a big deal.
"You are the most educated person in our family. If you want to continue learning, then go ahead and learn! Don't worry, Mom will help you take care of Little Tiger. That kid is strong and smart, and it won't be hard to take care of him!"
"Sister-in-law, if you can really pass the exam, then go to school. Little Tiger can stay here. He will be happy to be with his brothers and sisters. Don't worry, there are many people in the family, it's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks!"
"Yes, yes! He's already three years old, so he's easy to take care of!"
Chen Xingling joked with her brothers and chatted with her sisters-in-law about family matters and children. It was not until they had finished eating and were about to go back that her brothers asked her if she was really going to take the exam.
"Eight o'clock tomorrow, right? How do you want to go then?"
"By boat? Or by tractor?"
"I'll take my little sister there."
"I can send her off! My elder brother sent her off today, so let me do it tomorrow!"
"Anyway, I'm not going to the sea tomorrow, so I'll take my little sister home."
Even though they liked to tease her, if she really needed them, no matter what time it was, they were willing to serve their sister, even if it meant putting aside their current work.
Chen Xingling felt warm in his heart and smiled: "Dad said he would send me off by boat and boil two eggs for me to eat. He hoped that I could get a perfect score in the exam."
The brothers laughed and continued to tease.
"How many subjects? A hundred in several subjects - should be possible, right? I hope so."
"Puchi! Hahaha!"
"She used to eat all the eggs in the house, and she relied on zero points every other day!"
"My little sister eats two eggs and tests a duck egg!"
Chen Xingling kicked them out one by one, and shouted with a smug smile: "Just wait and see!"
Brothers: “Hahaha…”
The next morning, before daybreak, Liu Peiyun prepared fish porridge and eggs.
At around seven o'clock, Chen Sanshui accompanied his daughter to the gate of Chongwen Middle School.
At noon, Chen Xingling was the first to walk out of the examination room, with brisk steps and a smile on his face.
"Dad, the teacher said that the results will be released in five days and the classes will be divided. Tuition and books will be collected on the tenth day of the first lunar month, and classes will start on the morning of the seventeenth."
Seeing his daughter smiling confidently and happily, Chen Sanshui narrowed his eyes with loving smile.
"Tup! Tup! Are you hungry? Dad will take you to eat your favorite rice noodle soup."
No matter how she does in the exam, as long as my daughter is happy.
As long as it is not a bad thing, her parents will definitely support her wholeheartedly if she really wants to do it.
…
In the next few days, Chen Xingling lived the life of a "pet pig", eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, and eating and sleeping again, happily.
Liu Peiyun is an excellent cook. She makes various tonics, soups and delicious snacks for her daughter every day.
Gu Yi and Xiao Huzi had a lot of fun, following the fishing boats into the sea, chasing seafood behind the kids, and eating all kinds of fresh seafood every day.
At first he was worried that he would get fat if he ate like this every day, but everyone repeatedly emphasized that eating fish would not make you fat. Seeing that his brothers were all tall and thin and there were almost no fat people at the beach, he felt relieved and continued to eat as much as he wanted.
Little Tiger followed his cousins to the beach every day and got tanned in just a few days. He was no longer as fair as before.
Chen Xingling wasn't worried at all. He just reminded him not to go into the sea because he couldn't swim yet, and left everything else alone.
Although the little tiger has become a little darker, he has become much stronger. He was chubby before, but now his legs and feet are strong and tight, and he looks even more muscular.
On the contrary, Chen Xingling has become a lot whiter. She used to be pale and thin with a pale skin. Recently, she has been taking wolfberry, red dates, and donkey-hide gelatin, and recently she has been eating fish soup, isinglass, fish maw, and various nutritious sea fish. She has gained a little weight, and her cheeks are no longer sunken, but round and smooth.
Not only that, her skin tone also improved, becoming fair with a healthy reddish tint. With the various expensive facial masks, creams and nutrient solutions in the supermarket, her skin became fair and translucent, and she looked very healthy.
Chen Sanshui and Liu Peiyun secretly felt much more relieved, and they stuffed their daughter's mouth with three meals a day and snacks, as long as they were nutritious.
Some sisters-in-law were envious of how much their mother-in-law loved their younger sisters-in-law, and some even felt secretly jealous.
"Old Five, the day before yesterday I saw Daddy put the dried eel maw into shreds and asked Mother-in-law to stew it for my sister-in-law. She seemed to have eaten a few of them... After all, one can sell for quite a bit of money!"
"Shut up, don't say such things again! As long as my little sister wants to eat, she can eat as much as she wants. We go to the sea every day, so we have all the fish maw we want! If you dare to complain in front of my parents, I'll slap you!"
The fifth son's wife just shut up and dared not say anything else.
Chen Xingling has been spoiled by her parents and brothers since she was a child. She used to accept it with peace of mind, but she is different now. After all, she has been a "Gu family daughter-in-law" for some years, and she also understands that a daughter-in-law will feel jealous when the elders spoil their younger sister-in-law too much.
If she hadn't married yet, that would be another matter, but now that she is married, she should be more careful in how she behaves.
Therefore, every time her mother asked her to eat something, no matter which sister-in-law was present, she would pull her sister-in-law to eat together.
Whenever her father brought home food, she would share most of it with her nephews and nieces. No matter who was there, everyone got a share.
As she saw that she was becoming more considerate, sensible and well-behaved, she loved and pampered him more in her heart.
Happy days always pass quickly. Chen Xingling realized belatedly that the day before was already the Lantern Festival. He suddenly remembered that he did not go into the city to check the class results yesterday.
The tractor was driven out by the second and third brothers to sell fish and shrimp. It happened to be a big day for fishing at the sea when the tide was low. Dad and his brothers and sisters-in-law all went fishing, leaving only the old man and a few little kids at home.
So she hurried into the city by boat alone.
In the evening, everyone went home one after another, discussing with a smile what each of them had gained, and each of them returned home with a full load.
Liu Peiyun came out with an anxious look on her face: "Lingling went into the city by boat this morning and hasn't come back yet!"
"What?! My little sister is sailing into the city by herself? Oh no! There's a strong wind on the sea!"
