Time pays off

homely.

Under the guidance of her teacher, Cheng Qinglan sorted out her grandfather's collection of books. Knowing that they were going to donate them, Wu Zheng also supported her and helped them copy and sort out the books.

Grandma Cheng took her granddaughter to Jiangcheng Bank in her spare time, opened a safe for her, stored the gold bars and some valuable gifts there, and let the villagers know about it when she left.The old lady also has a heart, and she is afraid that money will attract people's attention. Although the village is full of clansmen, people's hearts are hard to guard. They left and left Grandma Cheng alone at home, which is too unsafe.Let people know that the money has been saved, and they can worry less.

Grandma Cheng confessed to her granddaughter that these are for you, and you will deal with them in the future, but the market is good now, so if you need money, you can go to grandma.The gold is kept as long as it can, and it will be sold when the time comes in the future.

After staying at home for a few days, Cheng Qinglan drove the teacher and her aunt back to the capital. At home, Grandma Cheng had four aunts and five aunts to take care of her, as well as the old neighbors in the village, so she felt more at ease.

Time passed quickly, after finishing the work in the capital, Cheng Qinglan returned to Jiangcheng without staying long.The little aunt said that when the time came, she would come and accompany her to report to Shanghai, and accompany her to see the house.Cheng Qinglan couldn't help wondering if little aunt would put on a uniform to send her to school like before.It's funny to think about it.

During the rest of the summer vacation, I read paintings and calligraphy at home, exercised my body, and ate well. When school was about to start, Cheng Qinglan measured and found that she had grown by three centimeters, although she was still only 1 meters, which made her very happy Yes, I told my little aunt immediately.

She felt that the way her little aunt taught her was useful, and of course it was thanks to the fifth aunt, who cooked soup for her every day.

Seeing her dancing happily, the elders in the family found it interesting, thinking that she was more like a child.

Grandma Cheng was concerned about buying a house, but Cheng Qinglan was not in a hurry. She said that she would live on campus anyway, so she would take it easy when she arrived in Shanghai.It's good to live in the school first, Grandma Cheng thinks about it, so let her do it.

The day before she was going to report to school, Cheng Qinglan packed her luggage and moved everything into the trunk. The car her uncle gave her was big enough to hold all the things, so she simply bought everything at home, saving herself from having to go to Shanghai to buy it. .

Qin Yi had a temporary situation at work and went to another place for a mission. The eldest aunt planned to ask for leave to take her to report, but Cheng Qinglan tried her best to dissuade her. She just wanted to report, and she was already in college, not a primary school student.It doesn't matter if someone picks it up or not, she'll do it by herself for such a small matter as reporting.

Grandma Cheng didn't think so, because she was somewhat worried about her granddaughter.The old lady wants to call Uncle Cheng to go. Cheng Qinglan knows how busy Uncle is at work, and if Uncle knows, Grandma will definitely follow her.

Cheng Qinglan was afraid that grandma would be worried, so she simply told her that I will contact Aunt Jiang for help if I have something to do in Shanghai, don't worry!

Grandma Cheng was very relieved of her old friend's daughter, so she agreed and didn't call anyone else.

On the day of registration, Cheng Qinglan bid farewell to her grandma early in the morning, and went straight to Shanghai. It was only a month before the school started and the National Day holiday started, and she would be back in a month at most. The grandparents and grandchildren did not show too much sadness.

17. University

University life is similar to Cheng Qinglan's expectation, it can even be regarded as leisurely, and there are not many courses in the freshman year.But leisure belongs to someone else, and has nothing to do with Cheng Qinglan. After the military training, she visited the uncle.

The uncle's house has been renovated, and he has already returned to live in his own home. His home is a little far from Cheng Qinglan's school. When there is no class, he will drive to the uncle's house to learn calligraphy from him. The uncle also specially prepared a studio for her.Apart from attending classes during this time, Cheng Qinglan stayed at the master's house most of the time, and went back to Jiangcheng's house to accompany grandma on weekends.

Her dormitory is on the fifth floor. The quadruple room has a bathroom. The top bunk is a bed, and the bottom is a wardrobe and desk. The space is quite large.The dormitory supervisor advised her to choose the bed at the time of check-in, which was the innermost position, quiet.The only downside is that it is a bit close to the air outlet of the air conditioner.

The dormitory manager's aunt should be entrusted by someone to take special care of Cheng Qinglan, and would come to see her when she had nothing to do. At first, the roommates thought that the auntie was her relative, and they followed Cheng Qinglan a lot.

Cheng Qinglan knew that it must have been related to the teacher who was called by the uncle at the time, and the teacher who was in charge of recruiting students at that time had visited her several times and told her to call him whenever she had anything to do.

Among the three roommates, Wu Jing is a native of Shanghai. She arrived behind Cheng Qinglan when she reported for duty that day. After getting to know each other, Cheng Qinglan felt that this girl was weird. People's eyes are very uncomfortable, anyway, Cheng Qinglan's first impression is not very friendly.

Li Lili is a northerner. She is tall, about 1.7 meters tall. Her skin was already darker, but it became darker after military training. She has a generous and straightforward personality and takes good care of Cheng Qinglan.

During the chat, I heard that Cheng Qinglan was a high school student in the capital, and Li Lili's family lived in a county very close to the capital, so she knew the capital very well.The two chatted more interestingly.

At that time, my roommate Wu Jing heard that she was studying in the capital, so she came over and asked, "Then your family is from the capital?"

Cheng Qinglan didn't like her very much, so she replied "No, my family is from Jiangcheng"

"Oh, from Jiangbei, I thought you were from the capital, so you are studying in the capital, are you going to a school for migrant workers' children?" Wu Jing said angrily.At first she heard that Cheng Qinglan was studying in the capital, and thought her family was from the capital, and wondered if she should make friends with her, but she didn't expect it to be from Jiangcheng. Heh, that small county, she heard her mother said, it's just a countryman.

Li Lili and Cheng Qinglan looked at each other and decided to ignore her.

Another roommate, Chen Yufei, is from a coastal city in the south. She can tell where she is from the moment she speaks Mandarin. She is small and about the same height as Cheng Qinglan. With her here, Cheng Qinglan feels that she is not so short. .

The four of them were in the same year, and Cheng Qinglan had the latest birthday and became the youngest of them. She was originally small, the kind that people wanted to protect. She followed several people every day, eating and sleeping together. Generally, the feelings of the other few of them warm up quickly, which also makes college life less boring.

Cheng Qinglan went to Jiang Yutang's house once and brought her some special products, but Shen Nian was not at home that day.Aunt Jiang was very worried about her, so she followed her to the school and visited her dormitory.It just so happened that Li Lili and Chen Yufei were also in the dormitory that day, and Jiang Yutang was relieved to see that they had a good relationship.Wu Jing's family is in Shanghai, and he always goes home on weekends.

When Wu Jing was not in the dormitory, the three of them got along better.

In just one month since the start of school, almost all of Cheng Qinglan's elders have visited her at the school. With the care of the principal and admissions teachers, Cheng Qinglan is cared for in every possible way in her life and study.

Soon the first long holiday of school starts, National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are together, Cheng Qinglan naturally wants to go home to accompany grandma, Li Lili's family conditions are not very good, and the cost of going back is too high, she just came to school for a few days, she I decided not to go back.Chen Yufei didn't go back because she didn't buy a plane ticket.

Cheng Qinglan thought about it for a while, and decided to invite them to her home for the holidays. They stayed together for a month. They were like sisters in their own family, and they took good care of themselves in life, so they couldn't bear to let them stay in the dormitory for the holidays.

At first, the two hesitated, thinking that it would not be good to go to a classmate's house during the holidays.Hearing that Cheng Qinglan said that there were only her and grandma at home, and that grandma Cheng called to invite them in person, the two of them agreed and happily packed their luggage.

On legal holidays, there will definitely be traffic jams, Cheng Qinglan is well prepared, bought a lot of food and water in the school supermarket, and made a pot of coffee to take with her.

Li Lili and the others knew that Cheng Qinglan had a car, but when Cheng Qinglan led them to the parking lot and saw the off-road vehicle in front of them, they were still dumbfounded, it was so cool.The key point is that the contrast between this car and Cheng Qinglan is too great. In their opinion, the MINI is more in line with Qinglan's image.

"Wow! This shape, this color, is so cool!" Li Lili touched and looked around as soon as she got in the car.I like it very much.

Chen Yufei felt that the car was too high, and the last car had to struggle to climb up.It's not very friendly to small people like them.But the rear space is really comfortable.They all felt that Qing Lan was usually very low-key, but this car bar was not low-key at all.

However, it can be seen that Qinglan’s family background is good. The clothes she usually wears and the things she uses look very textured. Chen Yufei’s family is on the coast, and she often goes to Hong Kong. There are many brands she can recognize. The logo of Qinglan’s clothes is not conspicuous. Most people can't see it, but she knows it. This brand is not as well-known as the few luxury brands that the public is familiar with, but the price is comparable.The style is also more suitable for their age.

Cheng Qinglan didn't care too much about these clothes, they were all bought for her by her aunt and little aunt.

The road back to Jiangcheng was really congested, so they brought a lot of food, chatted while eating, and drove home just in time for lunch.

The big house of Cheng Qinglan's family once again made the two children speechless in shock.When Li Lili got out of the car, she said: "Qing Lan, you, your family is so big, with such grandeur, were your ancestors high-ranking officials or landlords?!"

Chen Yufei was calmer than her, she said, "I've only seen this kind of house on TV, or it was protected as a cultural relic or scenic spot, Qing Lan, you are so happy to live in such a house. When I first met you, I felt that you had a very special temperament, and now I know it, it turns out that we Qinglan are the eldest daughter of a rich family."

After the three joked, Cheng Qinglan parked the car and led them into the yard.

Grandma Cheng was very happy when she knew they were coming. The house was ready early. As soon as the two children came in, they yelled affectionately at each other, making Grandma Cheng very happy.Grandma Cheng is indeed a person who seems easy to get along with, with a good temperament.They look more educated than their own grandma, and they speak softly, which makes people want to get close.

Aunt Wu cooked a large table of dishes. After the meal, Grandma Cheng took a lunch break. Cheng Qinglan took two classmates to visit the yard and arranged for them to live in the guest room on the second floor.Two days later it happened to be Mrs. Cheng's [-]th birthday. Cheng Qinglan had already prepared a painting for the old man, and went to the studio to write another letter.

When Li Lili and the others saw the studio, they knew that Cheng Qinglan was studying Chinese painting. Looking at the calligraphy and paintings arranged and hung in the studio, although they didn't know how to do it, they could see that her level was extremely high, and they admired her even more. They decided to go back to school and join the club to cultivate interest. As a hobby, it’s good to learn a little bit and improve your temperament.

The countryside in autumn is as beautiful as a fairy tale, and the golden rice fields in front of Cheng’s house stretch as far as the eye can see.The fifth aunt cooks all kinds of rural delicacies three times a day, and the two classmates feel that they have gained weight.Cheng Qinglan was fine, she had to exercise for at least half an hour every morning.When she was in school, Shen Day had a gymnasium, and she also went to exercise regardless of the weather, and there were faintly beautiful muscle lines on her arms.

On the old man's birthday, the whole village felt like it was New Year's Eve. A hundredth birthday is so rare, and many leaders from the town came to visit the old man.Cheng Qinglan was called to write birthday characters early in the morning, and the old man asked her to write, with big red paper, golden paint, and the largest brush.Attracted many people to watch.

Cheng Qinglan's brush calligraphy is already good, and with the guidance of the master, I also feel that I have improved significantly during this time.I have not slackened in practicing calligraphy, and I am very confident in my calligraphy.

After laying out the paper, I picked up the brush and finished it in one go. The big traditional Chinese cursive character "Shou" appeared vividly on the paper. It was hard to imagine that this character came from the hands of a little girl, and the elders applauded.

When Grandpa Cheng was alive, he was also good at writing. He was always asked to write couplets for happy events in the village.Now that she is here with her granddaughter, she is even more outstanding, and she can be regarded as a successor.Many people thought that they would have to ask this little girl to write in case of trouble at home in the future. Seeing her scribbling skills, she was very brilliant.

After the birthday character was dry, everyone pasted it on the wall of the main hall. The old man was very happy and told the juniors that no one was allowed to touch the character. I will take it off and keep it after the birthday is over.

After writing the birthday characters, Cheng Qinglan wrote a few more couplets based on the materials, and pasted them on the door outside the courtyard.

Li Lili was born in a rural area, so she often attended these banquets, so she didn't find it novel, but Chen Yufei lived in the city and was very interested in these customs.The uncles knew that they were Cheng Qinglan's classmates, so they welcomed them enthusiastically.

The birthday celebration at noon was very spectacular. The Cheng family is definitely considered the largest family in Nanhu and even Jiangcheng. The juniors lined up in a row and kowtowed to the old man one by one. Cheng Qinglan was considered the oldest among her peers. The youngest, many of her contemporaries have grown up, and the old lady is considered to be living in the same family for five generations.

After the birthday worship, there is also a link of presenting birthday gifts.

What Cheng Qinglan and grandma prepared was a pair of golden birthday peaches, and what Cheng Qinglan prepared was a picture of Songhe Yannian.The old man was very happy to receive the painting, and asked someone to open it for him to see on the spot.After the painting is unfolded, it is about two meters high, and the brush and ink are clear and delicate, fresh and smooth.I saw a pair of cranes under the pine tree looking into the distance, with proud and lifelike expressions, as if they would fly out of the painting at any time.

The old man clapped his hands and praised, and everyone in the hall also thought it was good. This painting is really good, and the meaning is better.The hand-painted gift is more precious than anything else, the old man took it with his own hands and handed it to his grandson to put it away.

The neighbors in the village used to only hear that Cheng Qinglan was studying painting, so she thought it was about the same level as her own children, probably at the level of interest classes.But as soon as the painting was opened, they didn't know what Chinese painting was or what school of painting was. They just thought it was more magnificent than the printed paintings of famous masters and famous artists.

It's amazing!It's hard to imagine that this was written by a teenager.Look at the works pasted on the wall at home and drawn by my children. I used to think they were beautiful, but now I really feel ashamed to look at them. There is no harm without comparison.

At noon, there were more than 20 tables. The weather was cool, and some of the tables were placed directly on the square, with sunshade cloths pulled up on them, so that the air circulation was better in the large space outside.The lively and lively rural banquet starts, the important thing is the atmosphere, not what to eat.

The old man originally wanted to call Cheng Qinglan to sit next to him, but she still wanted to accompany her classmates, and promised to go over to toast the grandfather later, so the old man gave up. Cheng Qinglan brought two classmates to a table with her grandmother and a few familiar aunts. , but also relaxed.

I had two meals at the birthday banquet, and there were not only fireworks at night, but the old man’s house also arranged a movie, which was very lively with a big curtain on the square at the entrance of the village.Attracted hawkers come here to sell melon seeds and snacks.

After the birthday banquet, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, a festival when Cheng Qinglan's family and Uncle Wu's family got together.The Mid-Autumn Festival in Jiangcheng is celebrated at noon. In fact, it is more scientific to celebrate the festival at noon. It is too rich to digest at night. Of course, this is what a few of their classmates think.

Respecting the moon must be arranged in the evening. A small table is prepared in front of each house with apples, persimmons, moon cakes and pomegranates. When dinner is ready, firecrackers must be set off before eating. Monthly food is taken home and shared.

One piece of moon cake is picked and cut. There are several people in the family who cut a few pieces. There are also homemade sesame cakes, which are cut in the same way. The family eats them separately, which means reunion.

Cheng Qinglan remembers that when she was a child, there were five people in her family, and the moon cakes were cut into six pieces, and she ate two pieces.Grandpa said at the time, "Maomao eats two pieces, and the little son-in-law eats the piece instead." At that time, she didn't know what the little son-in-law was, but she cooperated every time, and she ate two mooncakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival.Later, only she and grandma were left in the Mid-Autumn Festival. They cut it into six pieces and each ate three pieces.

Half of the seven-day long holiday passed quickly.Cheng Qinglan took two classmates and grandma, drove around Jiangcheng, and it was time to return to school again.

Grandma Cheng is very happy that her granddaughter can make friends at school. Young people should spend more time with young people and be more energetic.Before leaving, Grandma Cheng invited two young classmates to come back to play with Qing Lan when she had nothing to do on weekends, just like her own home, you are welcome.

Li Lili and Chen Yufei lived here for a few days, and they also had a lot of affection for Grandma Cheng, so they agreed.

The three of them brought a lot of food when they returned. There was a small rice cooker in the dormitory, and they could be eaten after heating.Cheng Qinglan brought a lot of real specialties to her aunt, which made her very happy.

Wu Jing, on the other hand, came back from home feeling weird, and none of them knew how to offend her.Normally, in order not to appear to be a gangster, they treated Wu Jing very politely, and would call her for everything, so as not to isolate her as if the three of them were united.

Wu Jing didn't appreciate it, and Cheng Qinglan heard her call several times, complaining about her roommate.Say they are foreigners, country people or something.She spoke the Shencheng dialect, which she thought Cheng Qinglan couldn't understand, and she didn't know how to restrain herself at first.Cheng Qinglan's grandmother is from Gusu, and her grandmother's home is not far from Shencheng in Yucheng. The dialect is similar to that of Shencheng, but the accent is not the same.She can understand Shencheng dialect, but she can't speak it.

She was also speechless about Wu Jing's gesture.When she was in the capital, she had heard people say how people in Shencheng looked down on outsiders. She just thought it was too one-sided and didn't take it seriously.At least Aunt Jiang and Shen Nian are not like that. There are also several teachers who are very kind and humble.I didn't expect to meet such a wonderful person as Wu Jing.

Grandma taught her not to cause trouble, but not to be afraid of trouble.Wu Jing did this again and again, and Cheng Qinglan didn't want to pretend that she didn't understand.She decided to mention it to Wu Jing at the right time, so that she would be less insinuating, and if she had any dissatisfaction, she could put it on the surface.

Although Shen Nian has already graduated, because she participated in the school's project research, she would occasionally return to the university. She saw Cheng Qinglan a few times on campus, and every time she talked and laughed with a few classmates, Shen Nian It can be seen that she is very happy and relieved.Just watched silently for a while, and didn't go forward to look for Cheng Qinglan.

18. Sister

After being told by Cheng Qinglan once, Wu Jing hasn't been acting strange in the dormitory for a while.But she still had a sickness every now and then, and they didn't mention her by name. The three of them just thought she was sick and ignored her together, and they lived in peace for a while.

Cheng Qinglan has a lot to learn, so she rarely stays in the dormitory, just go back to bed on time at night.If she didn't go to the uncle's house, she would stay in the library or the school gym.

Since going home with her once, Li Lili and Chen Yufei have gotten closer to her. Every time Cheng Qinglan called home, they would also chat with Grandma Cheng.

Only now did Wu Jing know that they were all going to Cheng Qinglan's house, and she became even more unhappy, feeling offended.He said that no one cares about what is good in the countryside.Cheng Qinglan treated her differently in her heart, this was to isolate her deliberately, so Wu Jing went to find her friends angrily, and slammed the door loudly when she left.

Now which of the children is not the baby of the family, there are not many who can be angry, can they be forgiven for their grievances?It will only make the other party gain an inch, Cheng Qinglan will not be used to this kind of person.A few times Wu Jing chatted with people on the phone, and when she used Shencheng dialect to talk about foreigners, Cheng Qinglan went up directly and made a few clear arguments with her.Wu Jing slipped away in desperation, and stopped speaking Shencheng dialect in the dormitory after that, knowing that Cheng Qinglan could understand it.

It was also from that time that Liang Zi was officially married, and Wu Jing had too much dissatisfaction with them. At first, she felt very superior. She was good-looking and a local, so she was good at studying in the class.

Because of Cheng Qinglan's existence, none of the classmates and teachers in the class saw her. Not to mention the classmates regarded Cheng Qinglan as a class pet, the teachers also cared for her and praised her many times in the class, which made Wu Jing very upset.

Their monitor is also from Shencheng, and Wu Jing was still a high school classmate. The two had a good relationship, and the monitor took good care of Wu Jing, but now the monitor only has Cheng Qinglan in his eyes, and he has praised Cheng Qinglan several times in private class gatherings, saying that she She is cute and good at studying.This made Wu Jing even more reluctant to see Cheng Qinglan.

When she first started school, she saw that Cheng Qinglan was wearing ordinary clothes, and thought that her hometown in the small village of Jiangcheng must be very poor, and she still had a sense of superiority, but she didn't expect that she would be slapped in the face soon. Cheng Qinglan wore very good brands, and her classmates Many of them have rich families, and Wu Jing knows those brands.All of her clothes combined are not as expensive as Cheng Qinglan's.This made her very unacceptable, and made her even more displeased.

Wu Jing was not happy to come back, and she didn't come back to the dormitory every night until bedtime, and she didn't talk to them when she came back.

Among the college students in Shencheng, there are not many local students in Shencheng, and Wu Jing also knows a lot of people. It feels like you are on my territory. face off.

What age is it now, and I don't know where her sense of regional superiority comes from.

The classmates in the dormitory next door were also very dissatisfied with Wu Jing, and told them in private that Wu Jing always regarded herself as a native of Shanghai, but in fact her family was in the most remote suburb of Shanghai, and her family conditions were also very average.They also gossip in private, and don't use it to talk about things.

This afternoon, Cheng Qinglan was reading in the library as usual, and returned to the dormitory very late. When the door was opened, the two roommates were there, and Li Lili ran over and said, "Qinglan, you are back, your sister will wait for you for a while." Yes, I didn’t answer your phone call.”

elder sister?Cheng Qinglan wondered where my sister came from, and walked into the dormitory suspiciously.

At this time, Shen Nian came out from her desk.

They haven't seen each other for several months. Every time Cheng Qinglan calls Aunt Jiang, she also thinks of this sister. She never thought that she would come to the dormitory to find her.It's been a long time since we saw each other, and it's a little bit of a trance to see you again.For a moment, she didn't know what to say to Shen Nian.

"Sister, why are you here?" Cheng Qinglan was stunned for a few seconds, then walked towards Shen Nian with a smile.

"I have something to do when I come to school, so I'll come to see you by the way." Shen Nian said gently, her mother often asked her to come and see the little girl, Shen Nian was not unwilling to come, but she felt that she must be very busy at the beginning of school. A few times, Shen Nian didn't come to look for her after seeing that she got along well with her classmates.I came to the school laboratory to do something today, so I wanted to see her.It was cold, and worried that she might catch a cold, Shen Nian brought her some common medicines when she came.

Cheng Qinglan invited Shen Nian to sit down at the desk, pulled the classmate's chair and sat down opposite her.They haven't met each other alone, and every time there are elders.She didn't know what to say for a moment, but she liked staying with Shen Nian very much, and Cheng Qinglan was very happy that Shen Nian could visit her.

Shen Nian was aware of Shen University's accommodation conditions, and was not worried that she would not get used to it.Shen Nian mainly came to see how her roommate was doing, if she got along well, for fear that she would be wronged.

After Shen Nian arrived, he chatted with the two little girls first, and he could see that they had a good relationship, so he felt relieved.Shen Nian didn't stay long, and they exchanged contact information when they left.

Cheng Qinglan sent people downstairs before returning.After returning to her seat, she realized that Shen Nian had sent her a small medicine box, which contained commonly used medicines, including Chinese patent medicines, western medicines, thermometers, bandages, it was so complete, Cheng Qinglan once again lamented how caring this sister is.

She sent a text message to Shen Nian to thank her, but Shen Nian didn't reply, maybe she hasn't arrived home yet.Shen Nian only left her her mobile phone number and said she didn't have WeChat. At that time, Cheng Qinglan was quite strange. In today's society, there are still people who don't use WeChat?But she believed that Shen Nian didn't need to lie to her.

Chen Yufei leaned over and said, "Qing Lan, that was really your sister just now, she has such a temperament, she has a high-end face, looks like a supermodel, she is so recognizable, and her speech is easy to control, especially when looking at people. Eyes, mother..."

Li Lili also felt that Shen Nian was good-looking, and she couldn't describe her feeling.

The weather in Shencheng was getting cold very quickly. Cheng Qinglan and Li Lili, who had lived in the north for so long, felt uncomfortable.When the three of them had no classes in the afternoon, Cheng Qinglan drove the car and took them to the mall to buy seasonal clothes.

When you were a student, your family determined your consumption level. Cheng Qinglan and Chen Yufei were better off, while Li Lili’s family conditions were not good, so shopping for clothes was more limited.Cheng Qinglan often went shopping with her aunts and knew how to choose clothes. She recommended several fast-moving brand stores to Li Lili. The styles of clothes were suitable for their age and the prices were affordable.

Cheng Qinglan also bought some underwear, the ones made of cotton are more comfortable.My little aunt bought a lot of clothes for her outside, and my aunt also sent a lot, so she doesn't need to buy any more for the time being.

Cheng Qinglan's shopping is influenced by her aunts and grandma, and she likes to buy good ones.The gap between the rich and the poor is beyond one's control, as long as one does not flaunt one's wealth, one can live one's own life.Conversely speaking, low-key is low-key, and there is no need to buy things you don't like for the sake of other people's feelings.

It's good to be able to spend rationally according to their own abilities. They didn't feel that Li Lili was pitiful, and they didn't have to feel inferior at all. When the three of them came out, everything was AA for eating. As students, they spent all their parents' money, so no one had to look down on anyone, let alone There is no need to pretend to be a big money with the money at home.On this point, the three of them have the same idea, and it is also because of this that they can get along well.

Both Li Lili and Chen Yufei had plans to go out to work part-time, but Cheng Qinglan had no plans for the time being because she wanted to learn calligraphy and painting.

She plans to wait until she has enough time later to take care of the online store and save some money, so she can't always spend her family's money when she becomes an adult.

In fact, she is not short of money. Her grandma has raised her since she was a child. When she was in junior high school, her grandma gave her a bank card, which contained her past New Year's money, plus the money she earned from a part-time job on the Internet. I will buy it later. There is enough money for the house and renovation.

When it came to December, Li Lili's parents came to see her from their hometown. It was already very cold in the north at this time, and the couple wore thicker clothes with simple styles.When I came to the dormitory, I brought them some northern specialties and distributed them to several roommates.

Both Cheng Qinglan and Chen Yufei politely accepted the thanks. Wu Jing was not in the dormitory, so Li Lili's mother put the things on her desk.

The few didn't take it seriously, sitting in the dormitory chatting, Cheng Qinglan poured them tea and reminded them to turn on the air conditioner in the room, or take off their coats, so as not to go out later, the temperature difference will catch a cold.The couple were about to take off their clothes when Wu Jing came back.

Unexpectedly, she would suddenly go back to the dormitory early. Li Lili was about to introduce her parents, both of whom were still living in the same dormitory.

"Ah! What is this, why is it so smelly? Li Lili suddenly said exaggeratedly, she picked up the food wrapped in paper on the table, pinched her nose with one hand, and looked disgusted.

Li Lili became angry when she heard it, and wanted to rush up to her to argue, but was stopped by Cheng Qinglan, who calmly shook her head at her, and then Cheng Qinglan winked at Chen Yufei.

Li Lili's parents were embarrassed for a while.

"Uncle, Auntie, it's getting late, let's go have dinner first, Lili has reserved a restaurant, let's sit down and chat over there." Chen Yufei received Cheng Qinglan's signal and came out to smooth things over.

Li Lili didn't want her parents to stay and embarrass her, so she led them outside arm in arm with her parents. Chen Yufei accompanied them and chatted with them while laughing and laughing. They walked away talking and laughing, ignoring Wu Jing and leaving the dormitory.

"Wu Jing, I have tolerated you for a long time. We don't care what you are dissatisfied with us or what you want. Lili's parents came all the way to see her and bring you gifts. That is the wish of her elders. , You don’t take it seriously, what’s your attitude, who was disgusted by your attitude just now?” Cheng Qinglan didn’t follow them out, closed the dormitory door after they left, and asked Wu Jing with a cold face.

Cheng Qinglan couldn't bear the anger in her heart, how could there be such a person?It's really shameless, people have good intentions, you can refuse if you don't like it, if you really can't do it, wait for people to leave and you throw things in the trash can, I won't say anything today.You deliberately embarrass others in front of others, what's the matter.

"I want you to care, what are you doing, Li Lili didn't say anything, what kind of person do you want to pretend to be!" Wu Jing said disdainfully, pinching the food bag with two fingers, still looking very disgusted.

"Anyone who sees it today can take care of you. Lili's parents are here, so it's hard to argue with you." Cheng Qinglan was also very angry, and stepped forward to snatch the food bag from her hand.

"Hehe! Who do you think you are, Cheng Qinglan? What right do you have over me? This is my home in Shencheng. I'm afraid you won't succeed." Wu Jing said with a strong attitude

"Hehe..." Cheng Qinglan was really going to be laughed at by her, what kind of argument is this?It's not that kindergarten kids are arguing, and they always talk about being from Shencheng.

"What are you doing in there, what are you making noise about?" the auntie dormitory just passed by, and when she heard the sound of arguing, she slammed on the door twice and reprimanded loudly.

The two people in the room stared at each other, refusing to give in to each other. Wu Jing knew that it was the aunt who was talking outside. This aunt usually favored Cheng Qinglan, and even she was taken care of by the way.Wu Jing knew that making a fuss would not be good, so she didn't say anything. After her aunt left, Wu Jing glared at Cheng Qinglan, opened the door and left.

Cheng Qinglan had never quarreled with anyone before, and she clenched her fists tightly with anger. She couldn't be angry today, but she couldn't quarrel with Wu Jing in terms of words. She stayed because she couldn't stand it, and wished she could beat Wu Jing .But Wu Jing has such a cheap mouth, she is always disgusting in her words, and she didn't do anything practical, so you can't hold her accountable.

Chen Yufei and the others went downstairs, but they didn't see Cheng Qinglan coming down, fearing that she would suffer, Chen Yufei turned around and ran upstairs to have a look.

"Let's go, don't be angry, it's not worth it." Chen Yufei was also angry, and she couldn't get angry. They both had similar personalities and couldn't quarrel. She could only persuade Cheng Qinglan and dragged her downstairs together.Li Lili ordered a hot pot, so it's not good for people to wait downstairs.

Li Lili's parents were also distressed. They couldn't help worrying that their daughter had such a roommate, and she must have been angry on weekdays. Thinking about the other two roommates, they are also very good children.I can only comfort myself, there are strange flowers everywhere, so I better keep my daughter away from that roommate later.

The hot pot that the four of them ate was lively and lively. Li Lili's parents were not very old. Although their family background was average, they were not new to the world.Talking and doing things, and dressed decently, because the train was dirty just now, the two of them wore their coats casually, and planned to go to the hotel to wash and change before going to see their daughter.

After arriving, Ms. Li thought about the food she brought here, and she was afraid it would be spoiled tomorrow, so she took a taxi directly to the school. The road was full of dust, and the image might not be very good.

Li Lili told her parents about going to Cheng Qinglan's house to play. Her parents were very happy to hear that, and invited two young classmates to come to their house during the winter vacation. The snow scene in the north is not bad. intentional movement.She said that she would discuss it with her parents when she returned from the winter vacation, and if they agreed, she would go to play.

That night, Wu Jing didn't come back to the dormitory. She must have gone to some friend's place to spend the night. The three of them didn't take it seriously. It would be better if they didn't come back.Li Lili's temper is not vegetarian, and Wu Jing must have a good talk when she comes back today.

The winter in Shencheng is really cold, down to the bone.After New Year's Day, the final exam is approaching. The students hope that the time will pass quickly so that they can go home early for the winter vacation.But expect time to pass slowly because they are not ready for the exam.

It doesn't matter to Cheng Qinglan, she often goes home, the winter vacation means that she doesn't have to run back and forth on weekends, so she can spend more time with grandma during the winter vacation.The world of primary school bully has never been afraid of exams.I usually have a good study plan, and I can enter the examination room at any time without reviewing, and I will fail the exam at all.

Jiangcheng is also very cold in winter, and there is no heating. After ten years away from home, Grandma Cheng was not used to it in the first winter when she came back. Cheng Qinglan bought several large coal stoves and put them on the first floor when she was at home. Boiling water can also keep warm, and the room is somewhat warmer.No one lived in the house for a long time, so it was colder.All the rooms in the house are air-conditioned. At night, Grandma Cheng turns on the air-conditioner and has a hot water bottle, so it is not too cold.

When Cheng Qinglan was at home last weekend, she found someone to build a sun room. The yard of her house is well lit and sunny during the day. It is more comfortable for grandma to stay in the sun room during the day, and she can have more activities.Staying in an air-conditioned room for a long time is always bad for your health.
