Rebirth with Award

"Qianqian, let's go. Grandma said everything is almost ready and we can set off. There are still some things we need to get from the store." Cheng Shiyu came over to remind Cheng Qianyun.

"I don't want to go. You guys go ahead. I'll stay at home and read a book. There's a competition after the New Year."

After Cheng Qianyun finished speaking, Cheng Shiyu hesitated for a while before responding with a "OK".

"Kang Mingyu has gone home and is not here. If my parents are worried, let them check the surveillance camera at the door." There is a camera at the door of this new house, which can show who has come and who has gone out.

Hearing his sister speak so bluntly, Cheng Shiyu felt a little embarrassed: "I don't mean to supervise you."

"Yeah." Cheng Qianyun answered perfunctorily, "I didn't say you were supervising me."

Grandma Cheng came over and heard what they said, and she also said, "Don't think too much, your parents are just worried that your love life will affect your studies."

"Grandma, I'm doing well in my studies, don't worry. You guys can leave soon, and when you come back, bring me some fried fish nuggets and oyster cakes from the intersection." Cheng Qianyun said to Grandma Cheng with a smile.

When talking about what to eat, Grandma Cheng stopped talking about that topic and asked, "Should I bring you some conch? Don't you like conch?"

"No, I can't suck it out, and it's too troublesome to eat it with a toothpick. I won't eat it. Let's go quickly, I want to eat fish nuggets."

"Okay, okay, then we'll set off. We'll come back as soon as possible to bring you fried fish nuggets and oyster cakes." After saying this, Grandma Cheng urged Cheng Shiyu and Cheng Shuyan to pack up all the things they needed, as she also wanted to go back to get the salted duck eggs she had pickled.

After they left, Cheng Qianyun closed and locked the door and started studying in the Crazy Classroom.

She really meant to study and she really meant to compete. When her sister and her family were at home, she could only sneak in for one or two minutes, or at most two or three minutes. Since they moved to Kang Mingyu's new house, their concern and attention to her were unprecedentedly high. Once they found that she closed the door, they would knock on the door and ask her if she wanted to drink water, eat fruit, eat snacks, etc. If they found that she locked the door, they would knock on the door until she opened it.

When Cheng Qianyun quit studying for the second time to rest and write, her mother called her via video. Cheng Qianyun opened her phone and continued writing.

"Qianqian, since you didn't go back to your hometown with grandma and the others, do you want to come to the store for lunch?"

"No, grandma made me a bowl of seafood porridge." The porridge was stewed in water, and the future was arranged by grandma.

"I'll start training for the competition once I learn how to write. We'll go to the supermarket together to buy New Year's goods when grandma and the others come back." The New Year's goods Cheng Qianyun was referring to were the melon seeds and other New Year's goods they ate.

In fact, Cheng Shiyu has already done a lot of online shopping, but they are used to going to the supermarket again before the Spring Festival to buy some snacks they didn’t buy. It is considered an annual New Year activity.

After hearing what her daughter said, Cheng Yingying said "yes" several times: "Then you practice. If you want to eat something, call mom or dad and tell us. We will be home in the afternoon."

"Yeah." Cheng Qianyun responded, and continued writing without hanging up the video.

Cheng Yingying on the other end hung up the video call after seeing that she was concentrating on writing again.

It’s not that she wants to restrict her child’s freedom, but she really does feel guilty and worried.

They never expected that Kang Mingyu would buy a house in the same neighborhood, and the decoration style was not much different from the design renderings that Qianqian had shown them before. Their own house was decorated in a different style, while her boyfriend's house was decorated in the style she had originally designed. This made them, as parents, look inferior.

Cheng Yingying was afraid that her daughter would be coaxed by Kang Mingyu and get married right after graduation. He was so good to Qianqian and put Qianqian first in everything. Qianqian was still a young girl who had not experienced much of the world. How could she resist such a sugar-coated attack?

Cheng Qianyun could guess what her parents were worried about. After all, they were worried before the house was renovated. At that time, they knew that Kang Mingyu had gone there, so they would ask her brother to find her. Now there is another house there as a reminder, and they and she have a knot because of the house, so they are naturally more worried.

But this worry was useless as she assured with words.

She didn't want to make any promises.

Their supervision was within her tolerance, so she didn't care. But if one day she didn't want to cooperate, who would be able to supervise her? How could the camera at the door prevent her from going out? In other words, with what she had learned, it would be too easy for her parents on the other side of the camera not to see her go out.

Cheng Shiyu and his friends came back before dinner. In the afternoon, Cheng Yingying and Cheng Zhuxuan came back and saw Cheng Qianyun reading and taking notes at home, so they didn't disturb her and went to prepare dinner. After dinner, Cheng Yingying called them to go shopping in the supermarket. Grandma Cheng was tired and wanted to rest, so she didn't go. Everyone else went.

Cheng Zhuxuan drove the car when they went there, because Cheng Shiyu and Cheng Shuyan had been driving for quite a while today and didn't want to drive anymore. Before getting in the car, Cheng Zhuxuan asked Cheng Qianyun if she wanted to drive.

Cheng Qianyun shook her head to indicate that she was tired after reading for an entire afternoon, and quietly got into the car and sat in the back seat. Listening to her parents asking her brother and sister about the New Year gifts they were going to give her, Cheng Qianyun closed her eyes and immersed herself in the reading room, starting to read for double time.

When he was almost at his destination, he stopped reading and sat up straight.

"Are you tired? Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You don't have to win a place in the competition." Seeing that his sister had woken up, Cheng Shiyu handed her his scarf. We were about to get off the bus. She had just woken up, so she had to wrap herself up, otherwise she would catch a cold.

Cheng Qianyun didn't take the scarf, but put on the hood of her coat: "There is a hood, you can put it on yourself. It's okay. The only way to win the competition is to give it your all so that you won't have any regrets."

After getting off the car, Cheng Qianyun was pulled by Cheng Shiyu and followed behind. However, after entering the supermarket, they separated from their parents. Cheng Shuyan pushed the cart and followed behind Cheng Qianyun and Cheng Shiyu.

Cheng Shiyu would take something out from time to time and ask them if they wanted to eat it. If they wanted to, they could put it in the car. Cheng Shuyan also picked it out, and Cheng Qianyun always said: Yes. So, the car was full soon. After it was full, Cheng Qianyun went to wait outside the cashier. There was a coin-operated machine for children to play there. Cheng Qianyun didn't mind the noise and changed 50 coins to sit and play.

Cheng Yingying and Cheng Zhuxuan, who were near the cashier counter, saw Cheng Qianyun's childishness and smiled and said that the child was still like a child. When they paid the bill, Cheng Qianyun had already gone to the store next door to buy ice cream.

Seeing her daughter eating ice cream in the middle of winter, Cheng Yingying naturally had to say something, saying that she was not afraid of the cold even in the middle of winter. Cheng Qianyun did not respond, nor did she act coquettishly, but just said that she had not eaten it for a long time, so she wanted to try it.

"What's so good about this? It's winter now. If you get diarrhea from eating it, you'll be the one who'll feel uncomfortable. If you want to eat it, wait until summer..."

Cheng Shiyu was just about to say that she wanted to eat it too and asked her mother to stop nagging her, when she saw her sister say "OK" and throw the remaining ice cream into the trash can.

Cheng Qianyun's "good behavior" left Cheng Yingying speechless. She should have been happy that her daughter was obedient, but when she saw that she threw away the ice cream just because she said a few more words, she felt very uncomfortable.

After going downstairs, Cheng Qianyun didn't leave directly. She would go into any store she saw that looked good. Cheng Yingying was not used to her daughter being like this.

Cheng Shiyu, who had gone shopping with Cheng Qianyun before, was used to it. When they went shopping before, Qianqian would accompany them to buy what they needed first, and then they would go to the stores she wanted to visit.

What Cheng Yingying was not used to was Cheng Qianyun's habit of buying things. She would buy whatever she liked without asking the clerk if there were any sales. She would just take it to the cashier. When did their family have enough money to pay for things without asking the price?
