Chapter 468 After Moving

In music class, the teacher talked about the art exam.

I listened silently, hoping to attend training so that I wouldn't have to study in school. My grades in cultural classes were enough, but after three months of training and painting day and night, I should be able to cope with the exam.

I wanted to go there because I like painting.

It's just that I can't afford this expense, and it's even impossible to earn future expenses.

I want to talk to them.

Especially when they talk about how wonderful other people's children are.

"Although your Aunt Yumei's son didn't go to the first school, he went to a good second school to study as a doctor. After completing his studies, he will come back to our hospital and become a director and open a specialist clinic.

Great future.”

Is there no future for learning to paint?

Such excellent students will be able to get into the first school in the mock test, but they will also fail and go to the second school. So it is normal for us not to be able to go to the second school.

I want to work hard, go to training, and work hard for three months to give me a chance to realize my dream.

"Only people who can't study will take the art exam and pay so much money." They already knew about the art exam. "The son of the xx family took the art exam and went to the Academy of Fine Arts.

What’s the use? Can you make money? My parents will have to give me money when I come back from school.”

No matter how much I want to go, I have no way to say that even if I can go to a college that students who take the art exam want to go to, it will not be worth mentioning in the eyes of my parents. What can I do if I am a dabbler? They must think that I am not good.

So what if it works?

If I go to a big city, I will be at the bottom.

If you don’t have connections, and you can’t win connections, how can anyone appreciate the art of an ordinary person?

In the past, I tried hard to convince myself that just being above the average would be good, but if I don’t have more knowledge, how can I grow? Being above the average is just a pipe dream. I don’t want them to pay for it, and I feel sorry for them that it’s not easy for them to make money.

But will it be too late for me to learn what I want to learn after I grow up and earn my own money?

Chicken Soup says, it’s never too late to learn.

What I want is not only to learn, but also to achieve success in learning. Of course, the sooner you learn, the better.

Sure enough, I still envy those who can learn to draw from a young age and have the support of their parents.

However, I thought they would sympathize with people who love painting, but they were also scornful and ridiculed students who wanted to take the art exam: "Isn't it just that you can't compare with others in cultural classes, and you want to take the art exam again? You want to take the art exam?"

It's beyond our imagination."

When I pass by several art students who have studied for many years, what I feel is not a noble artistic atmosphere, nor is what I hear they are discussing how to draw their own works well, but what I hear is the slander of others who also want to engage in the art industry.

.

No matter how good their works are, I can't appreciate them enough.

Just like no one else can appreciate our newly renovated house.

For the occasion of moving house, we simply set up a few tables for banquets.

We went to the same restaurant where we had a banquet on our birthday. Of course, it is famous for being cheap and good-quality, but in the past few years, it has already been disliked by others.

"It doesn't work now, the price hasn't increased much, and the taste is bad." As soon as Uncle Bao heard that our housewarming wine was placed there, he started to look very understanding, "Well, on this street, there are also

It’s a restaurant there, which is a little more expensive than here, but you can directly see the dishes when ordering, and the seafood and other items are kept in water tanks, so you can tell they are fresh at first glance.”

"Really? Then next time I have a chance, I'll have a banquet there. I've already booked it here and can't cancel it." Dad was joking with him.

Mom was already feeling a little unhappy, but she couldn't say it directly. She just didn't expect that this was just the beginning.

Now that everyone has moved to a new home, it is a common practice among friends to visit and sit down at the new home.

But almost all the friends who came to our house showed a little bit of dissatisfaction.

He keeps saying it's very good, very good.

but.

"Why is it decorated like a house in the country? It's not exquisite at all. Why does the kitchen have to be so big? The living room is so small. There are only sofas here but not here. You have to watch TV sideways. It's not comfortable at all.

"A friend with a big mouth who couldn't help but said it.

It was a house that my mother had worked hard to clean and renovate after careful budgeting. If you had enough money, of course you could decorate it better and make it look like a villa. You could buy the most expensive red rice furniture and the most expensive refrigerator.

The most expensive TV, the most expensive table, the most expensive bed, so they will say it looks good, right?

I want them to get out of my house quickly.

Although this big-mouthed aunt is telling the truth, and I don’t hate people who tell the truth, at least they are much better than those who are hypocritical, but I still want her to leave my home and stop judging my home.

But mom and dad still have to deal with their good friends with a smile: "Hey, when we were renovating, we were thinking of making a small study room. The original place of the study room was the kitchen. It happened to be that we didn't cook at home, so now I want to use the kitchen.

Make it bigger so that it will be easier to cook during the Chinese New Year."

"Why is the sliding door in this kitchen a glass door with two sides connected?" Another friend found something dissatisfying.

"What's going on?" Mom asked carefully.

"Let me tell you, if this kind of door is used for a long time, it will not close in the middle."

"Oh." Mom understood. "It will definitely break down over time. It won't be a big problem if it doesn't close up by then. Anyway, there is a range hood, so the fumes won't escape much."

"That's not what you said. If you want to use this door, you must use it well."

As soon as these words came out, the situation suddenly became awkward.

What I said is correct, but I feel helpless that some people still don’t understand.

My parents looked a little embarrassed, but fortunately there were friends who knew better and persuaded the big-mouthed aunt to stop talking.

The big-mouthed auntie has no eyesight, and the more she talks, the more energetic she becomes. She goes around in circles and puts forward ideas about the TV and the room. Other friends quickly say that it's fine, fine, and perfunctory.

"Why don't you let me say it?" The big-mouthed aunt was outspoken. She saw that everyone was telling her to shut up, but she just couldn't control it.

Mom didn't want the situation to get tense, so she had to smile and smooth things over: "It's okay, it's okay. Since I invited you here, I just want you to help me."

"We should have been invited here earlier." Big Mouth Auntie continued, "I know a friend who is engaged in decoration. He is the manager of a decoration company. If you come to him, you will definitely not decorate it like this."

Mom also knows that if you hire someone to design and decorate it, it will definitely not be this casual style, but the price will be high, but her heart is still moved: "It will definitely cost a lot of money for a decoration company to decorate it."

"It's not much, more than 200,000 yuan is definitely enough. You will live in this house for a lifetime, not to mention a lifetime, at least half a lifetime, right? It must be decorated better, right?" Aunt Big Mouth said about her.

Come to your own house, "my house"

When you bought a house, you also went to draw lots, didn't you? Fortunately, you didn't get one. My house is on the top floor, and the only way to go upstairs is to climb stairs. It's definitely not possible when you're old. Living there always feels boring. Your original home seems to be on the top floor too.

, do you have this feeling?"

My mother agreed: "Yes, it is better not to buy a house on the top floor. Why not buy a house on the ground floor? It will be more convenient to go up and downstairs."

"Convenience is convenient, but problems will arise if you live there for a long time." Uncle Bao, who had been talking to his father, suddenly interrupted and expressed his opinion, "Yuemei, how much did you spend to decorate this house?"

"If I don't have any money, I just need a hundred thousand." My mother said truthfully.

Uncle Bao exaggeratedly praised his mother in front of everyone: "It's good that ten thousand people can pretend to be like this." He came to the big-mouthed aunt and called her name, "Your family is well-renovated, and it is ready for my son to get married."

of?"

"It's still early to get married. I'm pretending to live here by myself." Aunt Big Mouth remembered that no one had come to visit her house yet. Taking advantage of all her old friends, she suddenly thought, "Another day, I'll invite you to come with me."

I'm a guest at my house. Please help me take a look and see if there's anything wrong with the decoration. I'll do it again."

My mother was shocked: "How can I redo it after it has been renovated?"

"It didn't look good, so I demolished it and rebuilt it. I just spent some money. When my son came back with his girlfriend, he ran away immediately when he saw that our house didn't look good, and the house was decorated in vain." The big-mouthed aunt still didn't hide the decoration of the house.

It was about preparing to use it as a wedding room for my son.

Uncle Bao immediately smiled and said: "No, your son is so promising, and now he is out of town, he must be earning tens of thousands a month."

The big-mouthed aunt said disgustedly: "Where do you get tens of thousands? However, ten thousand a month is still enough. It's hard for him to be alone outside. The last thing I can do is to decorate an old house for him to get married.

It was sold a long time ago. It’s just this house. When they get married, they will come to live there during the Chinese New Year. I also know that young people and us

These elderly people live together and have no common language, but I refuse to move out. This is a house I bought with money. It is good for them to live in. If you want to live in it, you can live in it. If you are not satisfied with the room you live in, you can renovate it.

Yes, don’t live here. Now that it’s been renovated, I’m too lazy to redecorate it. Then it will be covered in dust and I’ll have to clean it all by myself.”

"Then when are we going to visit your house? Let's see how your son is so lucky to have such a caring mother like you." Uncle Bao said nice things and smoked a cigarette.

Dad also came to the living room from the window: "You don't have to pick a day, just this Sunday, let's go to your house to have a meal and catch up on old times."

"Okay, you must come when the time comes. I'll ask my husband to cook mutton for you." The big-mouthed aunt became excited again when she talked about this, "My husband doesn't eat mutton himself, but the mutton he cooks is better than

Everything sold in restaurants must be delicious. If you don’t taste it when you cook it, the taste will be the same, delicious.”

"Then we're going to try it." Dad loves mutton, but he doesn't eat it often.

Uncle Bao was well-informed and didn't believe it: "I've eaten a lot of mutton, and I would say that in the whole town, the old man at the old vegetable market has the most delicious mutton.

"
