In a certain community in Beicheng.
Xiang Niannian had just arrived at the door of her house. When she opened the door and changed her shoes, she heard a gentle voice coming from the living room.
And this voice was what Xiang Niannian had dreamed of hearing for more than ten years.
I want to say it for her.
"Son, let's drink a cup of hot milk and go to bed, okay?"
"My dear, how about we continue playing when you get up tomorrow? Your health is important."
"We are still young and staying up late is not good for our health."
"Are you hungry now? Can mommy cook you some noodles?"
"Get out of here! Can you please stop bothering me? I'm about to lose my ranking."
"Okay, okay, dear baby, don't be angry, mommy won't disturb you."
Xiang Niannian watched as his mother coaxed her brother Xiang Hao with a glass of hot milk.
She only found this scene extremely ironic.
Still young? She is already a freshman in high school. Those who didn’t know better thought she was still in kindergarten.
Xiang Haohao is a treasure, and she is just a piece of grass.
Xiang Niannian has been completely disappointed with this family since the moment she was sent to live with an old man by her parents. She no longer desires to find love in the trash.
After she changed her shoes, she went straight back to her room. It was not so much her room as a small space separated by a curtain in the living room.
"Xiang Niannian, do you think I'm dead? I won't say a word when I come back, and I'm done with going out to play with you, right? Don't think that your wings will be hardened after graduation. Let me tell you, your dream is either in Beicheng, Or don’t read it.”
Zhang Wenyan got angry when she saw Xiang Niannian, and the meat in her mouth flew out. Last time, she finally found a rich man. I don’t know where this little girl got the reinforcements, but she was ruined. The rich man behind her The boss didn't want to say anything.
"Mom! You have no right to deprive me of my choice!" When Xiang Niannian heard Zhang Wenyan's words, he suddenly felt panicked and his eyes instantly turned red.
When Zhang Wenyan heard Xiang Niannian talk back, she immediately stood up, walked to Xiang Niannian, and poked her head hard with her finger: "You damn girl, is it easy for me to give birth to you and raise you? Find a good family for you. Forget it if you don't appreciate it, you still want to fly away. If you know how to be grateful, then make money to support your family, support your brother's education and marry a wife! What's the use of a woman reading so many books, sooner or later she will no longer belong to someone else's family. "
Zhang Wenyan said heartbreaking words one after another without caring about her feelings. Xiang Niannian looked at the man on the sofa beside her, her father Xiang Yuan.
There was no reaction. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at his phone.
Xiang Niannian didn't understand what she was hoping for. She didn't understand why, as her mother, she could say such things. Wasn't she also a woman?
"Whatever noise you are making, get out of here! It's hard for Ma De to get through this game, and all I have to do is listen to your voices." Xiang Haohao roared impatiently.
When Zhang Wenyan heard Xiang Yuan's voice, her attitude immediately changed 180 degrees: "Okay, okay, let's keep the volume down, my dear, you continue to play, we can take a rest after this game."
Xiang Niannian laughed self-deprecatingly: "Mom, I just want to know if I am your biological daughter?"
"You white-eyed wolf, you actually said such things to me. If you weren't my biological child, I would have thrown you away a long time ago." Zhang Wenyan was afraid of disturbing her son again, so she lowered her voice consciously, but she kept using her fingers. Poke Xiang Niannian's forehead.
Xiang Niannian's forehead turned red as fast as the naked eye, and she kept retreating.
But she didn't refute, no matter how much she said, it was useless.
She used to think that as long as she was obedient, took good care of her brother, didn't compete with him for anything, and got first place in the exam, her parents would like her.
But the facts told her that it was not the case. They would only think that their daughter was worthless and a loser.
Xiang Niannian casually wiped the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes: "Well, I understand, mom, aren't my grades this time pretty good? The school will reward 200,000 yuan, and the government will reward 300,000 yuan. I don't want a single point. I only have one request for my family, and I make my own decisions about my wishes."
At tonight's party, she learned from the principal that there would be scholarships, but they would not be paid out so quickly.
When Zhang Wenyan heard this, her eyes lit up instantly. Xiang Yuan also walked over from the sofa. Even Xiang Hao, who was angry about playing games just now, also stopped.
"Really?! I didn't expect you to be quite useful. If this money is not for the family, do you still want to keep it for yourself? You are nothing without me." Zhang Wenyan's attitude was not much better even after hearing that it was 500,000.
"Mom! I want the new pair of sneakers! Two pairs!"
"Okay, okay, once you get the money, mom will definitely buy it for you. It's a full 500,000 yuan, and then I'll save the rest for our dear baby."
Only then did Xiang Haohao calm down obediently.
"Nian Nian is great! Not only do you have excellent academic performance, but you can also earn so much money." Xiang Yuangang wanted to touch Xiang Nian Nian's head, but she dodged him.
Xiang Yuan could only put down his hands in silence, and then finally said something for Xiang Niannian: "Wen Yan, look, Niannian has promised to give you money, so let her go with her wish."
"Okay, okay, it's up to you, but I tell you, no matter how far you fly, your roots will still be here." Zhang Wenyan was in a good mood at this moment, so she agreed.
Xiang Niannian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Mom and Dad, I'm going to rest first."
As Xiang Niannian said that, she walked back to her own space. As soon as she sat on the bed, she heard Zhang Wenyan's words: "Tomorrow, your dad and I will get up early to go to the store to purchase goods. You get up in the morning and cook breakfast for your brother, and then bring food over at noon. Give us."
Xiang Niannian responded and lay down on the bed, tears streaming down silently.
At this time, a message rang on the cell phone next to me. When I opened it, I saw it was from Nan Sheng.
[Nian Nian, are you home? ”]
[I’m here, ready to rest. Shengsheng, you should also go to bed early. We’ll talk again tomorrow]
After sending a message to Niannian and Nan Sheng didn't reply, she saw the WeChat message written as Nan Sheng's brother.
She clicked in to take a look.
【Why did you get the money back? Don't want it? Still feel embarrassed to receive it? I just wanted to congratulate you, great! 】
Looking at this sentence, Xiang Niannian didn't know why, but there were more tears in the corners of her eyes.
An outsider could feel warmth from a casual word, but in her own home, she only felt cold all over.
****
Half a month later, Yin Han and Nan Sheng successfully received the admission notice from Nancheng University, as did Xiang Niannian, and Wang Wentao was indeed admitted to a university near Nancheng University as he said that day.
Getting the admission notice also means that they are about to go to Nancheng.
Yin Han didn't plan to wait until school started. He planned to go there half a month in advance. The night before departure, he went to see Wang Dali.
Wang Dali was not too surprised when he learned that Yin Han was going to Nancheng. He had already expected it when he knew that Nan Sheng was from Nancheng.
"You are responsible for managing all the work here. If you have any questions or financial needs, you can come to me."
"Don't worry, when this place is completely stable, I'm going to ask you to give me your opinion and expand our car brand to Nancheng!"
That night, Yin Han only went to see Wang Dali. Apart from that, there was nothing else worthy of his nostalgia in Beicheng.
He is about to return to Nancheng and start a new life with the person he loves most and his grandma. It is enough that the person he cares about most is by his side.
