Chapter 176 Pengfei
Summer vacation is here, Huang Tunan brings Lü Qiujian and Qi Jiwen to visit her home again, and Huang Ling prepares a large table of dishes to entertain them.
Now Huang Tuanan receives subsidies and scholarships for schooling, which is more than enough for him to support himself. Huang Ling only needs to support Huang Xiaoting. It doesn't cost much to send a child to school nowadays, and their family's financial situation has improved dramatically.
Moreover, after Huang Tuanan was admitted to university, the factory gave Huang Ling a lot of preferential treatment. At least she no longer had to work night shifts, and she could go to and from get off work on time every day. In addition, her grandparents would come over from time to time and give them gifts and money. Their family's life is much better now than before.
You can live a comfortable life without growing snake melons in the yard. When guests come to your home, it is no problem to prepare a table of delicious food.
"Come on, eat more. You take such good care of Tunan at school. I would feel bad if you didn't eat more." Huang Ling kept picking up food for them.
"Sister Huang, you are wrong. Tuanan is very sensible. We don't have many opportunities to take care of him. Instead, he has been tutoring us with our homework. In a sense, we are benefiting from Tuanan." Lu Qiujian said ashamedly.
They are more than twice as old as Huang Tunan, but in math, they have been left far behind by Huang Tunan. Whenever they have problems with a question, Huang Tunan still helps them with their questions.
At the beginning, the two were a little embarrassed. After all, they were in their thirties and it was really awkward to ask a twelve-year-old child for advice.
Eventually I got used to it, and even felt fortunate that I lived in the same dormitory with Tuanan. It was not so convenient for other students to ask for advice!
"No matter how capable he is, he is still a child. You will have to work harder in the future." Huang Ling continued to pick up food for them.
When they finished eating and were about to go back, I packed some snacks for them to take back and feed their own children.
After seeing them off, Huang Ling asked Tunan about his summer vacation plans before the people watching TV came over. "Are you okay for the summer vacation? Grandpa and grandma miss you very much. How about I send you and Xiaoting to Changzhou to stay for a few days?"
"I miss them too, but I can only stay for a week or so this time. The school teachers are still working during the summer vacation, and I have to continue learning from them! Also, fewer people use computers during the summer vacation, so it's a good opportunity for me to try out my new ideas." Huang Tunan plans to make something during this summer vacation.
"Okay, then I'll take a leave in a few days to take you there. When you want to come back, call me in advance so I can pick you up." Huang Ling also wanted to keep the child at home for a few more days and cook more delicious meals for him.
Before she could finish her words, the neighbors came over and waited to watch TV, so Huang Ling moved the TV outside the door. Lin Dongzhe also hurried over to help and put his bench next to Xiaoting.
Huang Tunan saw that Wu Shanshan also came with her younger brother Wu Xiaojun. These two children were quite pitiful. Their mother died early and their father remarried. After their stepmother Zhang A-mei brought her daughter Zhang Min into the Wu family, their father's attitude towards them gradually changed, and they became less and less welcome at home.
Huang Tunan shook his head and went back to his room to continue reading. There were so many poor people in the world, how could he help them all? He was only willing to help those who deserved help. Wu Shanshan was not like that. In the TV series, Song Ying helped her so much, but she even set her eyes on Song Ying's house. Huang Tunan was too lazy to pay attention to such an ungrateful person.
Huang Tunan and Huang Xiaoting lived a good life at home, while in the Zhuang family, Zhuang Hualin had already returned with her child Pengfei. After going to Guizhou, she did not give up on herself. She seized the opportunity to be admitted to a medical school and was assigned to work in a hospital. She lived a good life in the local area.
As soon as they entered the house, Zhuang Hualin pulled Pengfei to kneel down in front of the old couple, "Dad, Mom, I have never asked you for anything in my life. When you asked me to go to Guizhou, I went there directly. Now I only ask you to give Pengfei a bed, even if he has to sleep on the table like I did back then. I am willing to give you all my salary, just for Pengfei to study in Suzhou."
"The house is so small, there's no room for everyone to live here." The beautiful daughter-in-law hugged the two children and felt displeased with Pengfei no matter how she looked at him.
"Hua Lin, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really have no other choice. This place is so small, and there is really no room for six people." Lao Deng pretended to be pitiful.
"Dad, Mom, I beg you." Zhuang Hualin continued to beg with tears streaming down his face.
After talking for a while, Lao Deng finally took out the method he had thought of long ago, "Hua Lin, there is really no place here, but I can help you find a way. As for whether you can grasp it, it depends on you."
"Dad, you said, as long as Pengfei can stay in Suzhou, I will do anything." Zhuang Hualin was very clear about the gap in education levels between Suzhou and Guizhou, and most of the college graduates nowadays are assigned to go back to where they came from. If Pengfei is admitted to university in the future, it will be very different whether he is assigned to a unit in Suzhou or Guizhou.
"Hey, I didn't want to say this originally, but for you and Pengfei, I don't want to lose face." Lao Deng sighed and pointed in the direction of the cotton mill and said, "Your sister-in-law lives in a two-bedroom apartment now. Tunan usually studies in college and doesn't come home. There are only him and Xiaoting at home. Pengfei will definitely be able to live there."
"But...but my sister-in-law has divorced my eldest brother." Zhuang Hualin felt too embarrassed to ask Huang Ling for help.
"Even if you're divorced, Tunan is still your nephew, right? You've sent him a lot of things in the past. Now that you're in trouble, it's only right for you to ask them for help." Lao Deng continued to persuade.
He had a good idea. As long as Huang Ling was soft-hearted and kept Pengfei, it would be like opening a gap in their family. Maybe there would be a chance to get the house and Tuanan back. Even if he couldn't, it would be good to cause some trouble to their family. Lao Deng couldn't bear to see Huang Ling live a good life.
The better Huang Ling's life was and the more successful Huang Tunan became, the more uncomfortable he felt.
Zhuang Hualin had no other choice. Her elder brother Zhuang Chaoying was still sharing a dormitory with other teachers in the affiliated high school. Her younger brother Zhuang Ganmei and his wife were guarding against her like a thief. Apart from Huang Ling, she really couldn't find anyone else to turn to for help.
She was anxious to solve Pengfei's problem, and the old couple had no intention of leaving any food for them, so Zhuang Hualin and Pengfei didn't even eat, and went to the alley on an empty stomach and found Huang Ling.
"Aunt!" Pengfei greeted Huang Ling politely as soon as he saw her. This was much better than those two bastards Zhendong and Zhenbei.
"Hua Lin, Peng Fei? When did you come back? Come in and sit down." Huang Ling asked in surprise. Among the people in the Zhuang family, she had a good impression of these two.
