Chapter 220
Aunt Zhang and the other two stayed at Xu Di's house for more than two hours.
Bai Xuanning helped to tidy up the vegetable patch in the backyard, and still felt a little unsatisfied.
"When I was in the northwest, I hated farming because there was always so much weeding to do. At that time, I thought that after leaving the northwest, I would never want to do farm work again in my life.
Unexpectedly, after only one year, I have already started to enjoy farm work. ”
"The state of mind is different, so the feelings are different."
Xu Di understood how many people wanted to escape from the countryside and their hometowns at that time. But when you really leave, you will miss it again.
"Yes, back then we had to work, but now we take it as a break, pure fun."
Xu Di looked at this young man who was about the same age as himself. He had experienced much more than himself.
Over there, Bai Weiwei and the twins had already planted all the flowers.
The three of them had dirty clothes and stained faces, but they never stopped laughing.
"Xiao Di, are you done? Grandma is calling you."
"We'll be there soon after we're done."
Xu Di drew a bucket of water from the well and asked everyone to wash their hands.
"Grandma, we have planted a lot of flowers. When they grow up and bloom, I will pick the most beautiful ones and put them in your house."
Yuanyuan was like a dirty little cat, recommending her flowers to her grandmother, those flowers that had just been planted in the soil and only had a few leaves.
"Okay, grandma is waiting for the round flowers."
Grandma Qian answered very seriously, as if the flowers were already placed in the house.
"Weiwei, Xuanning, we have to go back."
"Aunt, have lunch here before going back."
“I’m not going to eat this time. I have an appointment with your uncle at noon and I have to meet a friend.
We'll come and taste your cooking later. ”
Zhang Nan looked at his daughter. Her clothes were a little dirty, but she had a smile on her face, and looked much more lively than before.
"Aunt Qian, I'm sorry to bother you today."
"It's not bad that Xiao Di and you have such a fate. If people get along well with each other, they can interact more often. There's no need to be so particular."
"Thank you, Aunt Qian. I benefited a lot today."
Aunt Zhang bowed sincerely to Grandma Qian to express her gratitude.
"Think positively, the past is the past, and we should look forward to everything."
Grandma Qian waved her hand. She just listened to some stories and gave some advice.
"Aunt, come and play with me often. Let's plant flowers together and play with Huahua and Huanghuang. I love you."
Yuanyuan held Bai Weiwei's hand. It was the first time that they had such an older friend to play with.
"Okay, I'll come play with you guys later. I like you too, Nuannuan, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan."
Bai Weiwei also held Yuanyuan's hand. She was very happy and relaxed today.
After seeing Bai Weiwei and the others off, Xu Di went to the backyard to finish up and collect the remaining bamboo.
Nuannuan took her great-grandmother to see the flowers planted by her younger sister and her friends. The pot of flowers would also be placed in her great-grandmother's room.
Professor Zhang and several others who left Xu Di's house met up with Professor Bai and had dinner with friends.
When he got home, Professor Bai told them what he had found out, that the two girls really did go to university under other people's names.
They have reported the matter to the two men's universities and the local education bureau.
After the school and the local education bureau verified the matter, the two faced expulsion.
“I have also confirmed that they did not get into the university at all, but changed their names temporarily and intercepted other people’s admission letters.
The relevant departments attach great importance to this matter.
They are definitely not isolated cases. There should be similar cases all over the country. ”
“There are always people who take advantage of their status to do things that harm others and benefit themselves.
Once this matter is verified, newspapers will report it one after another, and everyone will know about it. The country will also introduce relevant policies, and things will get better and better. ”
Professor Bai believes in the country. The chaos is only temporary and order will be restored slowly.
"I believe it too. If we didn't, we wouldn't have been able to persevere through those years."
I feel much better after meeting Aunt Qian today. But for the time being, she doesn't want to think about her previous life. It was too hard.
"How's your day? I see Weiwei is in a good mood."
"Well, Xu Di's family has three children, and they are well educated. Weiwei smiled many times today, and looked much more relaxed.
Before I knew her, I thought she was quiet and silent.
Now I know that it is because we as parents are careless that we can notice the differences in our children from the details. ”
Zhang Nan blamed herself for not noticing the child's abnormality in time.
"We will be more attentive in the future, and the child will be fine. He will be fine."
Maybe time is the best medicine. Many things need time to be forgotten.
The cucumbers in Xu Di's backyard are in bloom, and the beans are climbing all over the racks. The clusters of purple flowers are hidden under the leaves, which is quite interesting.
The semester for Xu Di and her classmates is coming to an end. The senior students are racing against time to review. No one wants to fail the exam. They all want to have good grades and be assigned a good job in the future.
At this time, the school library and study room are really crowded. If you go later, there will be no room left.
However, this matter has nothing to do with Xu Di. She lives at home and is not afraid of the lights being turned off in the dormitory at a certain time.
The Xu family, including Xu's mother, was also very worried. It was almost July, and they didn't know how Xu Mei was doing in her studies or whether she could be admitted to university.
In the past few months, the two children have been with her. She has to worry about their eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping. It is really tiring.
From time to time, the eldest daughter-in-law would make a few sour remarks, saying that she took care of her grandchildren but not her own grandchildren, and that she was biased.
She couldn't do anything about whether she was biased or not. Xu Mei dropped the child and ran away. Could she have just left the child on the street?
The eldest daughter-in-law didn't understand, but she didn't complain. After all, Xu Mei was just her sister-in-law, not her biological sister.
But Dali became very cold towards the two children, and she was very sad.
Dali and Xu Mei are two years apart in age and grew up together with the same mother. Dali took good care of his sister when they were young.
Now, I don’t know what’s wrong, I am indifferent to my younger brothers and sisters.
As parents, we hope that our children can support each other and get along well with each other. But it seems that this is just their wishful thinking.
Xu Di has a good relationship with Xu Jun, and has average feelings towards his older brother and sister.
She could understand that as parents, they felt guilty towards Xu Di. From childhood to adulthood, they had neglected Xu Di in many things. When she was young, they even let her grow up in the countryside.
Alas, I don’t know how my four children became like this.
She saw that Xu Di got along well with Xu Yong, Xu Qiang, and Xu Jia. They don't look like cousins, but more like biological children.
In July, several cucumbers in Xu Di's backyard grew to be as long as a zhang and were ready to be eaten.
You can also pick a few eggplants, enough for a meal.
"Mom, this eggplant is delicious, and the cucumber is delicious too."
Yuanyuan ate half a bowl of rice mixed with eggplant, and her stomach felt bloated.
"This eggplant is still the same eggplant, and the cucumber is no different. But I just think the ones I grow taste good."
Aunt Wu also thought it was delicious and the dish was particularly fresh.
Xu Di couldn’t tell. It might be because he grew them himself, or maybe these seedlings grew from the space. They tasted good.
Xu Di didn’t think that the things in the space had any magical effects. They were not like what was written in novels, that they could cleanse the bones and muscles, or beautify the skin and prolong life. None of those magical effects worked.
But, anyway, it tastes good.
The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the college entrance examinations of 1977 and 1978 were also proceeding intensively.
This is the second examination after the resumption of the college entrance examination. The examination will also be held in July and school will start in September. Only in the first year the exam is in December and school starts in March.
By September, they will be sophomores.
With millions of candidates and an admission rate of hundreds of thousands, the competition is extremely fierce.
