My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 406 University Reports

At eleven o'clock in the morning, Jiang Jing finally arrived home.

Knowing that her daughter was coming back today, Mother Jiang specially asked for a day off. Her daughter's salary for one month was worth two months of her own. It would be better to pay for it as soon as possible.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back."

Compared with before the college entrance examination, Jiang Jing has gained a lot of weight, and her face is also full of flesh. She could only score six points for her looks, but now she has at least seven points.

Father Jiang quickly waved to his daughter: "Xiao Jing, come here and let Dad see!"

Jiang Jing put down her backpack and walked into her parents' bedroom with bread crumbs. Benefiting from the improvement of family conditions, Jiang's father's mental state has improved a lot, and he is no longer as dead as before.

"Dad, are you hungry? Would you like some bread crumbs?"

The bread crumbs were only saved in the last two days, and they weighed about a catty, and she ate the rest.

Throughout August, she took a total of [-] catties of grain from the food card, which greatly reduced the burden on the family.

"Your mother is making lunch, don't waste it."

Father Jiang shook his head.

"Let's taste it. There are several new types of bread in the factory, and some of them taste very good."

Jiang Jing grabbed a small handful of bread crumbs from the bag and slowly fed it to her father.

Father Jiang chatted with his daughter while eating bread crumbs.

"Xiao Jing, did you work overtime last night? Why are you getting such big dark circles?" Father Jiang asked concerned.

Jiang Jing nodded, and said casually: "The factory has heavy production tasks recently."

"How much salary do you get this month?"

"Take twelve thousand."

"So much? A lot of overtime, right?"

Father Jiang looked at his tired daughter, and his heart ached.

"It's not bad, but it's good to get used to it." Jiang Jing saw that her father's expression was not good, so she quickly changed the topic:
"Dad, where's the little brother?"

"He went to pick up scraps on the street and wanted to save money to buy a new schoolbag." Father Jiang replied.

As for Brother Jiang, he went to the technical school to report in July. The schooling period of the technical school is only two years, there is no summer vacation, and the school usually starts earlier.

"Oh, didn't I promise to help him buy a schoolbag?"

Jiang's father looked relieved: "Your brother is sensible now and knows that it is not easy for you to make money, so I want to lighten your burden a little."

As soon as the words were finished, Jiang Xiaodi came back with a big bag of bottles and cans. He hadn't seen him for more than a month, and he was quite tanned.

"Sister, are you back?"

Jiang Jing took a towel and wiped his younger brother's sweat, and asked with a smile, "Have you got all the money for the schoolbag?"

"It should be almost there." Brother Jiang nodded.

"It's almost like telling the eldest sister, and the eldest sister will bring it to you."

"Well, thank you sister!"

"Are you hungry? The eldest sister brought bread crumbs back, you should fill your stomach first!" Jiang Jing handed the bag of bread crumbs to the younger brother.

Brother Jiang was already so hungry that his chest was stuck to his back. When he saw the bread crumbs, he couldn't bear it. He put the bag to his mouth and planed several mouthfuls, wishing he could open his mouth a little longer.

"Eat slowly, don't choke."

In less than 5 minutes, brother Jiang dried up more than a catty of bread crumbs. Jiang Jing did not stop him. Today is a happy day for salary, so let the little brother have a full meal!

When Mother Jiang wanted to stop it, it was already too late.

He could only catch his daughter and scold him: "Your brother is a child and ignorant, are you a child too? There are so many bread crumbs, enough for him to eat three meals, but it turned out that he finished it in one meal."

Jiang Xiaodi hid behind the eldest sister in fear.

"Mom, I saved the bread crumbs. I can give them to whoever I want, and you don't care." Jiang Jing replied.

Mother Jiang held back her anger: "Why are you standing around, dinner is ready."

After lunch, Jiang Jing handed in 10,000 yuan to her mother, and the remaining more than 2000 yuan was temporarily used as living expenses for her and her eldest brother.

As for college tuition, you can apply for an interest-free loan, and their family is also eligible, so you can't miss it in vain.

……

Sunday, May 9.

Early in the morning, Ma Lingling waited for Jiang Jing at the entrance of the subway station. The two had made an appointment yesterday, and they were going to set off together today.

Xu Ting and Ma Jie did not send their daughter to report.

One was Ma Lingling's own insistence, and Ma Xu also started school today, so there were many things to do;
The second is that Madam Xu had said hello in advance and would let Xu Dong accompany the eldest niece to school, so that the couple would not have to worry.

After arriving in Yanjing, the two separated at the subway station, because they were not in the same school after all.

Because there was a lot of luggage, Ma Lingling took a taxi directly and came to her uncle's house.

"I've been waiting for you all morning."

Mama Xu wanted to go forward to take the luggage from her granddaughter, but Ma Lingling avoided her.

"Grandma, your legs haven't healed yet, let me do it myself!"

"Nonsense, grandma's legs have recovered long ago."

"I can carry it myself." Ma Lingling insisted.

Mama Xu smiled and shook her head: "Okay, grandma doesn't need to carry it. The room was cleaned yesterday. You can go up by yourself. It's still the same room you lived in before."

Now it's a state of emergency. According to regulations, Ma Lingling must live on campus, but it doesn't prevent her from coming to take a nap, or staying for a few days during holidays.

"Thank you grandma, grandma, you are so kind!"

Ma Lingling's room was on the second floor, next to the bedrooms of her cousins. It took less than ten minutes for the room to be tidied up.

Xu's mother was preparing lunch, and Ma Lingling ran over to help.

"Grandma, where's the old uncle and little aunt?"

"Take Ke Ke and the others to the school to sign up, and they should be back soon." Mama Xu replied.

Today happens to be Sunday, so it's rare for the third child to be free.

"Is grandpa still at work today?"

Mama Xu complained: "Your grandfather is so focused on the company now, he wished he could live in the office every day, so he only had two days off during the Chinese New Year."

"I didn't expect that grandpa worked so hard!" Ma Lingling was full of emotion.

"What are you trying to do? You're busy all day long."

Mama Xu complained.

"Hee hee, grandpa is the chairman of the board now, so he must be in charge of a lot of things."

Mama Xu curled her lips: "Your grandma is also the general manager, look at the three meals a day at home, which meal is missing?"

The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, which is not easy to answer.

Ma Lingling immediately changed the subject: "Grandma, what is cooking in the pot? Why is it so fragrant?"

"It's a fried rooster. I just killed it this morning. It weighs three catties!" Mama Xu lifted the lid of the pot and turned over the chicken with a spatula.

"Why did you kill the chicken again?"

Ma Lingling was a little embarrassed, she just killed a chicken the day before yesterday, and if she killed it at this rate, she wouldn't be able to eat it for the New Year.

"School starts today. Going to school is very exhausting, so I'll make up for it for you." Mama Xu explained.

There are currently 45 chickens in the family. After removing the 25 hens, there are still [-] roosters. One or two can be killed every month.

"It's delicious!"

Ma Lingling couldn't help swallowing her saliva.

Mama Xu joked with a smile: "Why are you still as greedy as you were when you were a child, and you will be cooked in a while, so you can eat as much as you want."

"Grandma's cooking skills are good."

Ma Lingling said coquettishly.

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
