Rebirth at the starting point of happiness
Chapter 110 Going Abroad
Xu Feng has a strong sense of responsibility as the eldest child. She takes care of everything at home and outside, including her adoptive parents.
Su Qiuyue admired and felt sorry for her elder sister. It was not easy for her. Fortunately, her elder sister was active and capable, and she enjoyed it.
"You've made money and bought a house, but what can you do? If your parents-in-law come to take care of you in your old age, won't you be unable to do anything about it?
If you buy a big house, we have to live together. My uncle and aunt will not live with you if they want to save face.
Besides, you are taking care of your uncle and aunt in their old age, don’t others care about you? Isn’t that Xu Jing back? "
Speaking of this, Su Qiuyue was helpless.
To my cousin and aunt, no matter how bad Xu Jing is, she is still their child.
In recent years, especially as her younger brothers and sisters were admitted to universities, Xu Jing probably felt proud and began to return to her parents' home.
At first, she just cried poor and said that her life was hard. Her mother-in-law was difficult to get along with and looked down on her. Like Xu Feng, she gave birth to two daughters, but she never saw them for a day.
My cousin and aunt saw that Xu Jing used to be fair and now she is fat and dark because of having children and working on the farm all year round. Her hands are rougher than my cousin's, a carpenter. They really feel sorry for her.
Gradually, we started to have contact.
Later, since I moved to the city, I only went there during the New Year holidays.
"I'm not stupid. Of course the house I bought is under my name. How can I put it under someone else's name?"
Xu Feng had specifically inquired about this. She didn't want to waste money on being a good person. Even if she earned enough money to buy a house for her parents, she would not put her parents' names on it.
"Just keep it in mind. By the way, sister, I have passed the driving test. Do you want to learn?"
"Not learn."
"What if you need to drive in the future when you are busy? Just learn it. It will be convenient to drive in the future."
"Not learn."
"Why? Xiao Ling passed the exam, but you are not as good as her?"
Su Qiuyue didn't understand why her cousin refused so straightforwardly.
"You're right not to get married." Xu Feng glared at her.
"You are so unromantic. Your eldest brother-in-law is coming back. There will be a man in my family from now on. I have been alone all these years. If he comes back, won't I need him somewhere? I can buy him a car to pick me up.
We have to let him know. Besides, if we buy a car for him to drive, we have to ask him to drive when we need a car at home or outside.
Otherwise, if I make so much money and he has nothing to do with it, he will definitely start a fight, right? Stupid."
The final evaluation is for Su Qiuyue. She didn't use her brain at all in this regard.
"Big sister, really. I admire you. You always enlighten me. Really, you are wasting your talent."
Su Qiuyue couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, "Look at how conscious she is. No wonder her brother-in-law has already leaned towards her after just over a year of marriage."
"Tsk. You guys are just stupid because of studying. When those young couples are about to get married, I will teach them a lesson."
"I can see it."
Now that the house matters were settled, Xu Feng had to get busy with the decoration.
Su Qiuyue was busy learning English and started scratching things everywhere.
See what can be exchanged for money in a foreign country.
Because she doesn't have that much money now and has too many demands, she can only turn to Da Zhang for help.
"I want black tea. Here is the drawing. I want a palm-colored box. One pound per serving. The silk must be solid color.
I need a complete set of porcelain tea sets, either European or Chinese, and the cups should be bigger. "
Su Qiuyue went to find Da Zhang and handed him the drawings and instructions she had prepared earlier.
"What are you going to do? Where are you going to sell it? Export it?"
Da Zhang took a look and found the foreign language on it, and couldn't help but look up and ask.
"You're shipping these? Have you made the arrangements?"
"It's not me. I did it for someone else. The key is to be able to exchange foreign currency."
"Foreign exchange?!" Da Zhang is no longer a small purchasing agent, but is now from the Provincial Department of Commerce.
Now we are vigorously developing the economy, and the south has been developing in full swing. They are still taking it slow. Attracting foreign investment is the current trend, and they will be excited if they can exchange foreign currency.
"Next year. It's these quantities for now, but we can't pay until before the New Year."
"Okay, I'll contact you when I get back. I'll try to get all the goods ready after the New Year."
The matter was settled, but Zhang Xinyi still had something to ask her.
"I heard that you wrote down the old bellows' name when you donated money and goods last time."
He and Su Qiuyue had not exchanged food for several years. Apart from looking for him when he was looking for retired soldiers, he had no other requests.
This is the first time in these years that I have used favors.
"Yeah, probably this is the last time."
"Why?" Zhang Xinyi was a little surprised. He thought Su Qiuyue would always carry the name of Old Feng Xia.
“Last time we wanted to give out commendations, Old Feng Xia didn’t even erect a tombstone because he wanted the karma of this life to end in this lifetime.
He didn't want too many causes and effects. Old Man Zhao also said that the old wind box was over. It was dead. There was no need to appear again. "
Zhang Xinyi nodded. Over the years, if he hadn’t mentioned the old bellows, he would have felt like he was dreaming.
Now I am doing well. I participated in the military district competition two years ago and fell seriously ill after returning. Zhang Xinyi thought something happened to Su Qiuyue, but he didn't expect that Su Qiuyue was fine.
I just consumed too much energy. This also proved that his fate belonged to himself and no longer depended on Su Qiuyue.
The current relationship with Su Qiuyue is that of a reliable stranger. Apart from their needs, they don't seem to have much in common, nor do they understand each other. It's just that there is such a person and such an inexplicable friendship.
It’s incredible to think that he can still talk about things so openly every time.
"I'm going abroad next year. Is there anything you want? I'll bring it back for you." Su Qiuyue suddenly remembered to bring him a gift and wanted to ask him what he needed.
"Going abroad? Are you following the trend too?"
"My sister and cousin are going to study abroad. If they pass the exam, I will send them there. If they fail, I will go and see them first and then take the exam later."
"Ah, I thought you were going outside too."
When he heard that it was his sister who was taking the college entrance examination, Zhang Xinyi nodded. He thought she was also following the trend and immigrating.
"Then buy something for my daughter." Zhang Xinyi thought that when he went abroad, he could just bring a gift for his precious daughter.
His daughter is the only girl in the family. She is truly the apple of the eye of the whole family.
"Okay, I'll take care of it when the time comes. Don't just think about your daughter, think about your wife."
"Hehe." Zhang Xinyi scratched his head embarrassedly.
Although you can see young people walking arm in arm on the street nowadays, they are still embarrassed to express their concern for each other.
The cargo was arranged, and Su Qiuyue felt relieved. This was related to her making money.
Xu Ling and Xu Kuan also sent her a letter, in which she inquired about the sale of the house.
Su Qiuyue picked out the items that interested her and that the prices were acceptable to her. When she made money next year, she would buy a lot of properties.
She slowly began to prepare according to her plan. When Xinyue finally received the admission letter, Su Qiuyue quickly packed her things, got her documents ready, and went to buy a plane ticket.
Su Xinyue was admitted to the beautiful country of Naru University, which is said to be the cradle of entrepreneurs and politicians. To put it bluntly, Su Xinyue wanted to gild herself and expand her network of contacts.
The two of them took a flight for more than ten hours, and then transferred to another flight for several hours before arriving. After getting off the plane, the first thing Su Qiuyue did was to find a taxi to go to the embassy.
"Sister, why?" Xinyue had already found out that she should go to a host family. She was admitted to a prestigious university, so it was easy for her to find a host family willing to accept her. I don't know why my sister didn't go there first, but went to the embassy first.
"You'll know when we get there." Su Qiuyue didn't want to say it, but the driver had secretly glanced at them several times and she didn't want to talk in his car.
When they arrived at the embassy, Su Qiuyue took her sister directly to the embassy.
"Naru University?! They should have arranged a host family long ago. You should contact the reception teacher here and just follow her. Is there anything else you need to do here?"
The staff was very warm and friendly, and didn't understand why Su Qiuyue came to the embassy.
"Comrade, I'm really worried. This is our first time going abroad. My sister has to live with someone else. What if that family is a bad person? We found out that we were completely in the dark when we went abroad. Seeing foreigners with blond hair and green eyes everywhere, I have no idea what to do.
I can't trust anyone but our motherland. So you must help me take a good look at the moral character of that family.
Do they have a criminal record? Does anyone know if they have any bad habits or anything like that?
Su Qiuyue held the staff member's wrist, looking anxious and worried. She was embarrassed for the young man.
I quickly called another female colleague over and we sat down in the rest area to talk.
"Ma'am, we understand your feelings very well. Please rest assured. These homestays are all registered with the embassy.
We have done a strict investigation. And your sister was admitted to a very famous school. It is very difficult for locals to get into such a school. Those who can get in are all outstanding. So these host families are very willing to accept our international students.
It can also be very beneficial for them to be able to influence their own children.”
The staff tried their best to comfort Su Qiuyue.
I talked about the host family situation in detail.
"I don't even know what their company is like. I have many concerns. Comrade, I only believe in our country and our staff.
I know it's troublesome for me to do this, but you have to understand me. We are orphans, and I raised my sister with great difficulty. She has to run so far away, and I would be concerned about her even if she has any problems in life, let alone studying.
So could you please help me, I just need to make arrangements for my sister. Please.
I just realized that there is no place like home when I am away from home. You, come back to China as soon as you graduate and don’t look for a foreign partner, did you hear me? I was so nervous when I received the admission letter, and now that I have landed, I am still worried. "
Su Qiuyue started wiping her tears as she spoke, and Xinyue, who was a little confused at first, even had her eyes red. At the end, when she talked about finding a partner and her sister, there was a bit of fake crying, but she blinked and the tears did not stop.
Su Qiuyue's crying was real and fake, and the embassy couldn't just ignore it, so they sent two staff members to take them to their host family.
The host family is a family with three children. The husband is an engineer and the wife works in a bank.
The oldest child is twelve years old and the youngest is four years old.
They live in a three-story detached house with a half-floor attic. There are front and back gardens. The surrounding environment is very good, the community service is also very good, and there are security patrols.
It’s a forty-five-minute drive from Su Xinyue’s school.
Su Xinyue's room is on the third floor. It is not small. In addition to basic furniture, there is also a film camera.
The room has a separate bathroom, which is very convenient.
There are also requirements for the host family. The first one is personal privacy. Su Xinyue is not allowed to enter other rooms except the public areas.
Another thing is that you must go home at 10 pm. You are not allowed to bring other people into the family.
Then there was the cost, 2,000 American dollars a year, or 10,000 national currency. This was just the cost of accommodation. They covered the water and electricity, but she had to buy and cook her own food.
You can eat with them, but it will be charged extra.
In fact, Su Xinyue's school also has dormitories, which cost 2,400 US dollars a year. After discussing with her sister, she decided to live with a host family. One reason is that the conditions are better, and the other is that she can have a free and private space between herself and her classmates.
Tuition and accommodation fees are nearly 5,000 US dollars a year, which is 20,000 yuan in national currency. This does not include transportation, communication, food, etc. (The fees and exchange rates are roughly calculated based on the Internet, so please do not delve into them. Thank you.)
There are only a few households with a monthly income of 10,000 yuan in China.
What evil capitalism! All Su Qiuyue was thinking about at the moment was making money from them.
"Excuse me, can I buy some home appliances and furniture? And also install a telephone line. Of course, we will pay for it ourselves."
Su Qiuyue felt that her sister should have her own contact information to maintain her own circle of friends, so as not to occupy other people's phones and she could also be more free.
"You speak English?! Very good. Of course no problem."
Hearing that Su Qiuyue could speak English, the couple were a little surprised and their attitude became more enthusiastic.
"Are you going to check in today?" asked the hostess.
"No. I think we still need some daily necessities. If you call, I'll trouble you to make an appointment for installation. I'll come and pay the fee then."
"Ok, no problem."
After leaving the host family, Su Qiuyue bought a map so that she could go back and forth by herself.
"Comrade, my sister and I want to take the local driver's license test. Is it easy? How long does it take? We also want to buy a car, a used car will do. Where is the nearest supermarket? We want to buy some things. Do we need to buy electrical appliances by ourselves or do we need help?"
"Buy a car?"
The staff didn't expect Su Qiuyue and the others to be so generous, but if they needed it, they would take them to handle it.
I just saw that they were still carrying luggage, so I reminded them that they could find a place to stay first.
Su Qiuyue looked at the map and consulted with the embassy staff, and stayed in a pretty good hotel not far away.
Let them have a good rest tonight and adjust to the time difference. They will come to accompany them tomorrow.
After all, there are indeed many inconveniences when there are two girls.
