During dinner, the second uncle told Mr. Tang the decision that the three brothers had just discussed. He heard that there was going to be another college student in the family, especially a college student from the University of Washington. He was so happy that he praised his second grandson for his future and shouted. He has brought glory to the Old Tang family. He needs to drink one more cup today.

Mrs. Tang even told Ma Tang that she would pay for the food rations for these children, leaving Ma Tang and her aunt to worry. How could this Tang's mother want it? They are all her own children. What's wrong with having something to eat? Let the old lady rest assured that the children will definitely be taken care of by her, and they will eat well and study well. Tang Ma's statement made the old lady even happier. The more her daughter-in-law looked at her, the better she looked.

The second aunt is also very grateful to Tang Ma. The three young men of hers live in the brother-in-law's house. Let's not talk about how much they eat. It is also troublesome to take care of so many people. Moreover, she and her third brother have to be responsible for tutoring their children. The eldest and second eldest of the three children in the family have made it clear that they want to continue their education, so the third brother and his wife are inevitably in trouble. She even expressed her gratitude to Tang Ma. She didn't say much else and kept everything in mind.

It's New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye. This year is a rare reunion year for the old Tang family. At Tang Xin's strong request, the eldest uncle greeted his brothers to hang up the red lanterns early, and then followed the annual standard process Posting Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters, there were many people in the family, and it was very lively coming and going.

With so many brothers to give orders to, Tang Xin leisurely took the snacks and directed her brothers to do this and that. The brothers also listened to her and obeyed obediently.

At the New Year's Eve dinner, several ladies showed off their talents and used all their skills to cook a sumptuous meal. Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang couldn't help but smile when they saw the reunited family. Mouth, the most direct manifestation of this is that the red envelopes given to children on the first day of the new year are twice as thick.

But it’s too much to make a few children happy. Nowadays, the children’s pocket money is too little. Every family is planning to make ends meet. No one will often give pocket money to their children. Even if the environment of the Tang family is good, they are still diligent and thrifty in running the family. principle, so the children are very looking forward to the New Year and the holidays.

Tang Xin carefully put the New Year's money into her pocket. This year was also a bumper year. As usual, even her brothers prepared red envelopes for her. As the youngest in the family, it was good. She wants to keep the money and see if she can buy something to save it so that it can appreciate in value in the future.

She has long been attracted to her grandfather's Moutai. After some inquiring, she found out that Moutai now costs less than 2 yuan a bottle. Grandpa's Moutai is a special supply. Plus her uncle's share, it is calculated based on the box. She has to think about it. Let dad get some and store them home, and then you can buy some and store them at home. I just don’t know if I need a ticket to buy wine? This needs to be studied carefully.

On the first day of the new year, under the leadership of the second uncle, a row of men from the Tang family went to pay New Year greetings. The uncle and Tang's father stayed at home to help greet the guests. As for why the second uncle led the team this year, it was because he had not been there for several years. I'm back for the New Year. "Now that you're back, you should also visit your uncles' houses." Mr. Tang said.

Therefore, in previous years, Tang's father's work was taken over by his second uncle. Tang's father quietly followed his uncle to greet the people who came to pay New Year's greetings.

The first guests to arrive turned out to be Grandpa Jiang. He brought Jiang Wenbai and Jiang Wenbai's father to pay New Year's greetings.

Jiang Wenbo's father has not come back since he came back a few years ago. It has been four years. In the past few years, Jiang Wenbo's mother has been traveling back and forth between the two places. Occasionally, Jiang Wenbo will go back for a vacation when he is on vacation. After wishing each other happy New Year and saying hello, the adults chatted about work together. Tang Xin saw that Jiang Wenbai was also bored, so she waved to him from the side, and Jiang Wenbai came over with a smile.

"Sugar baby, have a great New Year."

"Happy New Year, Brother Xiaobai." Tang Xin nodded with a smile. "Come on, let's go to the study. There's no point in listening to them talking here."

"Okay, we haven't had a good chat for a long time. What have you been busy with recently? You haven't come over this winter vacation." Jiang Wenbai agreed happily.

"It's nothing, it's just that my parents have been busy recently, so they didn't come over." Why are you busy? I was busy preparing food, but I couldn't talk about it, so I had to take it with me. Fortunately, Jiang Wenbai didn't ask any questions.

"How have you been studying recently? What are your plans?" Jiang Wenbai asked as he and Tang Xin walked to the study.

"This year I am in elementary school for the first semester. I plan to jump directly to middle school next semester. Two years in elementary school is enough." She never had to pretend to be a child in front of Jiang Wenbai. She could speak out directly if she had any ideas. I am lucky to have a friend who is also mentally mature.

"Well, that's about it. After all, we are still young, and sometimes skipping grades too quickly is not a good thing." Jiang Wenbai strongly agreed with Tang Xin's decision, because after all, they were both gifted children with similar experiences, so they could better understand each other's thoughts.

The two sat down on the sofa in the study, and Tang Xin stood up again and took out her secret snacks from the cabinet in the study. "Brother Xiaobai, come and have some snacks. I hid these secretly."

Jiang Wenbai took a look and saw that there were quite a lot of preserved fruits, candies, dried fruits and dried sweet potatoes. Did Tang Xin treat these as food reserves? Thanking Tang Xin for his kindness, he picked up a piece of preserved fruit and ate it. "Well, you made this yourself, right?" This one tastes good, not sweet, and suits his taste.

"Yeah, how did you taste it?" Tang Xin also took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Well, this is the taste of sweet and sour.

"I found that you prefer to eat sour and sweet things, and pay more attention to the original taste of food. The preserved fruits bought outside are generally too sweet, and this sweetness is just right." Jiang Wenbai explained, and then took another piece of dried sweet potato. Started chewing.

"I didn't expect you to be quite attentive. By the way, what did you plan?" Jiang Wenbai skipped a grade faster than her. He is now a sophomore in high school and can take the college entrance examination next year. He is a 13-year-old college student.

"Of course I will continue to study in college after graduating from high school, but I may leave for a while recently," Jiang Wenbai said.

"Why? Don't you plan to study at a university in Beijing?" Tang Xin was surprised. Jiang Wenbai originally said that he planned to study at the University of Washington, but why has he changed his mind now?

"My teachers are currently cooperating with the Soviet Union to study a project. They select some children from the two countries who have certain talents in various aspects and organize a training camp for specialized training. I am very interested, so I signed up. "Jiang Wenbo explained.

Oh, that's the so-called gifted youth class. I didn't expect it to exist now? Tang Xin understood.

"Sugar baby, do you want to sign up?" Jiang Wenbai asked.

"I'd better forget it. I don't want to be a scientist or inventor. I just want to be an ordinary person. I've already thought about college. I want to go to a normal university and become a people's teacher in the future." She also has herself There is a way to go, and other things will not be considered.

"It's great to be a teacher, but why don't you go to BGI? You have such a good talent in mathematics. It would be a pity not to study mathematics." Her ideal has not changed since she met Tang Xin. She wants to be a math teacher. Teacher, but they have never talked about it. Why did Tang Xin want to be a teacher? Is it because of the influence of his parents?

"Everyone has their own ideas. Maybe in your eyes, I am wasting my talent by not studying mathematics, but in my opinion, this does not conflict with my ideal. I can also be a mathematics teacher. . Besides, talent is important, and interest is equally important. My dream has always been very clear. I want to be a people's teacher, spreading the seeds of knowledge all over the land of the motherland, so that everyone of school-age children in our country can read. Go to school!" Tang Xin said about her dream.

The sun shines in from the window and shines on Tang Xin's side face. Her face is bathed in the sunshine. Tang Xin's eyes are shining when she talks about her ideals. At this moment, her whole body exudes confidence. Jiang Wenbai feels that at this time Tang Xin was particularly vivid, and he was particularly impressed. Also, it is particularly dazzling. It turns out that girls who have ideals in their hearts and have been working hard for their ideals are so dazzling and attract people's attention. My heart was beating loudly, as if something was about to burst out of the ground.

He didn't know it at this moment, but in fact, as early as this moment, this girl had planted a seed in his heart. The feeling at this moment was called throbbing.
