My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 362
On the evening of June 6, Ma Lingling finally arrived home.

Ma Xu rushed over immediately: "Sister, did you bring something delicious back?"

"Lele made you an egg cake."

Ma Lingling took off the mask smoothly.

"Ah...why didn't my aunt do it?" Ma Xu was disappointed.

"Don't worry, Lele's culinary skills have improved greatly now, and her chicken cakes are no worse than my aunt's. You'll know when you eat them later." Ma Lingling explained with a smile.

Xu Ting came over with a spatula: "Is your grandma's legs better?"

"It's better, but grandma has the flu again."

"Is it serious?"

"It's okay, just a little low fever."

"Where's your grandfather?"

Ma Lingling smiled and said, "Grandpa is in good health. He takes Ke Ke and the others for a run every night. He is more diligent than my uncle."

"Okay, that's good. Your grandfather is the big boss now, and he knows how to cherish his body. It's good."

"Mom, shall I cook for you? My aunt gave me a big crab. Let's have a big meal tonight." Ma Lingling looked happy.

"Sister, where is the big crab? Show me quickly." Ma Xu urged.

Because Ma Lingling was nervous about her third year of high school, even on weekends, she only had half a day off at most, so that the siblings didn't go to grandma's house for half a year.

"Is it king crab? It only costs 100,000 yuan!" Xu Ting sighed.

"Ah, so expensive?" Ma Lingling said in shock.

"What do you think? Your brother-in-law spent 3 million just to buy king crabs."

"Uncle is really rich!"

"Okay, eating seafood is easy to cause diarrhea, so eat it after you finish the exam, and store it in the refrigerator first."

Ma Xu suddenly became unhappy: "Mom, I'm not afraid of diarrhea."

"This is given to your sister by my aunt, not for you." Xu Ting said angrily.

"Mom, why don't you cook two crab legs for my little brother?" Ma Lingling quickly persuaded, the relationship between the siblings is usually good.

"Thank you ma'am."

"Little glutton!"

After dinner, the whole family went to bed before eight o'clock, and had no dreams all night!
The next day, Xu Ting woke up very early. In order to accompany her daughter to take the college entrance examination, she specially transferred her rest to the two days of the college entrance examination.

At seven o'clock, Ma Lingling got up.

Breakfast is very rich.

One pot of rice porridge, three small dishes of stir-fry.

A dish of fried bacon with garlic, a dish of scrambled eggs with leeks, a dish of fried salted fish, and a poached egg at the end.

"Mom, can you give me an extra egg?"

"Why, isn't one egg enough for you?" Ma Jie asked puzzled.

"I want to bring one to Jiang Jing. Their family is very poor. I am afraid that she will be hungry in the examination room, which will affect her performance."

Jiang Jing is Ma Lingling's deskmate and her best friend here.

"How is it possible?" Xu Ting asked in surprise, "Today is the college entrance examination, not to mention that you have eaten well, but if you squeeze, it should be okay to have a full meal, right?"

"Their family is in a special situation."

"What special method?" Xu Ting asked curiously.

"Her father is paralyzed in bed, and she has two younger brothers. Her mother doesn't want her to go to college, but wants her to come out to work earlier, so as to reduce the burden on the family."

Ma Lingling explained.

"How can there be such parents? Too short-sighted!"

"It's really difficult for their family. Jiang Jing only eats one meal a day. Last month, she didn't even weigh [-] kilograms, and her calves are not as thick as my arms!"

"This child is too pitiful. Don't bring eggs. If you're not hungry, I'll get you a piece of bread!" Xu Ting sighed.

"Thank you mom!"

Half an hour later, the mother and daughter came to the examination room.

"Have you brought everything? Hurry up and check again." Xu Ting reminded.

Ma Lingling checked it carefully.

"Bring them all."

Xu Ting handed the water glass to her daughter: "Mom made you chrysanthemum tea and put two spoonfuls of sugar. It's not bitter at all. Take a sip when you're thirsty."

Fortunately, there was an air conditioner in the examination room, otherwise the high temperature in June would have killed people.

"Got it, Mom, I'm going in."

After 10 minutes, Ma Lingling finally found Jiang Jing at the same table. Both of them were lucky enough to take the exam in this school.

"Jiang Jing, I have found you."

"Lingling, when did you arrive?" Jiang Jing was delighted.

"I just arrived, let's not talk about this. My mother has no time to make breakfast in the morning. I brought bread. Let's share it?"

Jiang Jing swallowed unconsciously. Their family never had breakfast, and she ran out hungry.

"Eat it yourself, I ate it in the morning."

"Okay, can you eat with me? The bread is quite big, and I can't finish it by myself."

After Ma Lingling finished speaking, she took out the bread, and directly broke more than half of it to the other party, leaving only a piece the size of a palm for herself.

"There are many... many..."

"I have a small appetite, one piece is enough." Ma Lingling gnawed on the bread lightly.

Jiang Jing was very moved while holding the bread.

She knew that the conditions of Ma Lingling's family were very good, and they were among the best in the class. She must have brought this piece of bread specially for her. Comparing the experiences of the two, she felt mixed feelings for a while.

"Don't get confused, eat quickly!" Ma Lingling urged.

"Lingling, thank you."

"We are good sisters, don't be polite to me."

In less than 5 minutes, Jiang Jing ate half of the bread without stopping. This was the most delicious meal she had ever eaten.

"Do you want to drink some water?" Ma Lingling asked while holding a water glass.

"I brought water."

Jiang Jing took out a large Coke bottle from her schoolbag.

Since noon yesterday, she hasn't touched food. When she went out in the morning, she could only secretly drink a large bottle of water, hoping to survive today.

……

At half past eight, the exam officially begins.

Outside the examination room, Xu Ting bought a place in the arbor for 30 yuan. The school entrance was empty, without even a place to shade.

"Hi, is your family a son or a daughter?"

A parent took the initiative to chat with Xu Ting.

"daughter."

"How are your usual grades?"

Xu Ting said modestly: "It's so-so, and the grade can probably be ranked in the top ten."

"Not bad, which middle school?"

"Eighth Middle School."

The other party looked envious: "It's incredible. With this score, it is definitely no problem to be admitted to the university. Last year, No. 38 Middle School admitted [-] people."

"We still have to come and play."

"Much better than our family. Our family is also a daughter. She goes to the thirteenth middle school and can only be ranked in the top [-] grades. I wonder if I can perform supernormally this time?"

"With so many schools in the capital, there are still great opportunities." Xu Ting comforted quickly.

"It is indeed better than other places. I heard that in Jizhou next door, there are many high schools that are bare every year, and the competition is particularly fierce. Our capital is better, there are many schools, and jobs can be assigned locally after graduation."

"What major does your daughter plan to apply for?" Xu Ting asked, also wanting to be a reference.

"We want her to apply for a major in teacher training. It will be good to be a teacher in the future. There is air conditioning in the daytime classes and there are many holidays. It is no worse than some government units."

The most important thing is that teachers are special occupations and have preferential treatment in ration distribution. This is also the main reason why normal schools have exploded in recent years.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
