Li Xiulan couldn't sit still. She didn't dare to talk nonsense to others before she got the notice. Now she saw the notice and urged Gu Xingping to go to the countryside to mail it to Chen Lishu. She also put on her shoes and went with a smile.
I dropped by other people's homes and told them about my child's admission to college.
Time flies and the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month has arrived. People in the Northeast are accustomed to eating dumplings on this day. Seeing that the garlic seedlings she planted are growing well and ready to be eaten, Chen Lishu cut them off after breakfast and kept a part for herself.
The other part was sent to Lin Xiaoyue.
…
"Sister-in-law, do you still want the food stamps?" Wang Yufen stopped a woman in her thirties at the entrance of the corridor and asked in a low voice.
"Sister-in-law, do you have any extra on your hands?" The woman's eyes lit up when she heard her question. Seeing her nodding, she smiled and said, "I thought your mother-in-law was here, so I didn't have the nerve to ask, how much do you have on your hands now?"
There are many children at home, so it’s really hard to think of something to do.
Wang Yufen thought for a moment and said, "Two pounds."
Usually there are only her and Wei Xiaoya at home, and mother and daughter can save five or six kilograms each month. Now that Mrs. Wei is here, there are many people in the family who need to eat, and she only saved so much last month.
"Okay, let's keep it at the original price, right?" the woman said, taking out a dollar from her pocket and handing it over.
Wang Yufen took the money she handed over and handed over the food stamps in her hand. She looked up and saw Chen Lishu coming in. Her hands trembled in fright and she almost dropped the money in her hand.
"Brother, younger brother and sister."
Chen Lishu originally thought that the two of them met in the corridor and were chatting, but now she saw Wang Yufen looking like she was guilty of committing a crime. Her eyes fell on the food stamps and money that they had not had time to put away, and her eyebrows moved.
"The Gu family is here, are you going to Wu's house?" The woman quickly put the food stamps in her pocket and said hello with a smile as if nothing had happened.
Everyone in the family area knows that the Gu family and the Wu family have a good relationship, so they don't give it a second thought.
Chen Lishu pretended not to notice and smiled at her and nodded: "Yes."
The three of them greeted each other, and Chen Lishu went upstairs to find Lin Xiaoyue.
"Sister-in-law, these are the garlic sprouts I planted. I just brought them over for you to try." After Chen Lishu entered the door, she handed the garlic sprouts in her hand to her.
"I just happened to be wondering what fillings to use to make dumplings tonight, so you brought them to me." Lin Xiaoyue smiled and took the garlic sprouts and put them in the kitchen.
She is now a month old, especially in winter when the roads are slippery and it is inconvenient to go out. She can only occasionally take a break and go to the city to buy some food.
"Sister Lishu, you are here." Lin Xiaohui came out of the room and looked at Chen Lishu with a perfunctory smile on her face.
Chen Lishu nodded towards her as a greeting.
"Sister, I went to the city to buy cabbage the day before yesterday. I think cabbage is more delicious than garlic sprouts."
Lin Xiaoyue gave her a warning look, but Lin Xiaohui pretended not to notice, took a stool and sat down aside, looked at Chen Lishu and asked with a smile: "Sister Lishu, what have you been doing at home recently?"
Chen Lishu's expression became a little calmer: "I didn't do anything."
Lin Xiaohui's eyes flashed, she picked up the paper box Lin Xiaoyue was pasting at the table and said, "My sister can make several cents a day pasting paper boxes at home. Brother Gu has to work hard to make money, so you have to understand him. I think this
The job is very suitable for you, Sister Lishu, and you are not tired at home. It’s not like me who goes to work every day to take care of students and has to go to class. If I didn’t see the salary as good, I wouldn’t want to do it long ago.”
Chen Lishu: "..."
If I hadn't seen Lin Xiaoyue standing by, I would have wanted to go over there.
"Thank you for your kindness, Xiaohui. I'm afraid I won't be able to join your sister in making paper boxes. After all, I will go to college after the new year and I won't have time." Chen Lishu looked at her and said with a half-smile.
Lin Xiaoyue was surprised when she heard what she said: "Going to college? My sister, have you taken the college entrance examination? Which university did you take the exam to?"
Chen Lishu nodded and replied with a smile: "Provincial Normal College, I just received the admission notice this morning."
Early in the morning, a little soldier knocked on the door and knew it was a letter from home. Chen Lishu guessed it was an admission notice, but when she opened it, it turned out to be true.
"Congratulations to my sister-in-law. You are so awesome." Lin Xiaoyue praised her sincerely.
When she received the notice of the resumption of the college entrance examination, she also persuaded Lin Xiaohui to take part. After all, she had just graduated from junior high school, so it would be good to take the technical secondary school examination. Unfortunately, no matter how much she persuaded her, it was of no use. She also said that it was not like there was no job now.
"Impossible, how can you, a person who has never graduated from elementary school, get into college?" Lin Xiaohui reacted, stood up from the stool, pointed at Chen Lishu and asked.
"Xiaohui! You are getting more and more outrageous. If you do this again, I will write to your mother and ask you to go back to your hometown!" Lin Xiaoyue slammed the table angrily. This sister is so outrageous. She can't speak and thinks about everything else.
Nonsense! "Sister, she must be bragging here. How can someone who has not graduated from elementary school get into college? Otherwise, she is plagiarizing others through despicable means."
A person who was obviously inferior to her in all aspects suddenly said that she was admitted to college. Lin Xiaohui simply couldn't accept this.
This is like a household with ten thousand yuan that has always looked down upon a beggar. Then one day the beggar suddenly took out a bankbook and said that he was a millionaire. It was a huge blow.
"Pah!" Hearing that she was speaking without restraint, Lin Xiaoyue became furious and slapped her in the face.
Lin Xiaohui covered her beaten cheek with a look of disbelief: "Sister, you hit me because of an outsider?"
"If you keep talking nonsense, pack your things and leave now!"
Chen Lishu looked at Lin Xiaohui and said with a cold expression: "Xiaohui, do you know the idiom called self-righteousness? There is also a saying that there are people outside the world. If you have nothing to do, read more books to refresh your brain and improve your quality. Don't think about something all day long.
Yes, there are many people who are better than you. There is no sin in being mediocre. You have to learn to see the reality clearly."
As she spoke, Chen Lishu stood up and said to Lin Xiaoyue, "Sister-in-law, I'm going back first."
When he was about to go out, he paused slightly. When he turned around, his eyes fell on Lin Xiaohui's face, which looked like he had knocked over a palette. He raised the corners of his lips: "By the way, if you feel that the work is tiring, just stop doing it. Go back and find someone to marry. You see.
I'm looking for you, Brother Gu, who is such an outstanding person. He doesn't have to do anything every day, but he still treats me like a treasure. His heart and eyes are all about me, and other women are not as good as air in his eyes."
Don't think that she can't see her little thoughts. With this little ability, just go and stay somewhere cool as soon as possible.
"Sister, look at her, she is so shameless!"
Lin Xiaohui jumped angrily. When had she ever seen Chen Lishu like this? She always remembered that she was asking Tuntun, thinking she was easy to bully.
"Xiaohui, that's enough."
Lin Xiaoyue shook her head in disappointment: "Don't celebrate the New Year here. I will ask your brother-in-law to buy a ticket tomorrow. You are not young anymore. I will tell my mother to find you an in-law in my hometown."
