Ordinary countryside reborn

As soon as this person came on stage, warm applause and cheers erupted from below, and more importantly, the bold and passionate eyes of the girls were directed at him as if they were real.

Teacher Wu and Teacher Huang sat next to the wall with smiles and started chatting with Yu Jiabin who had just stepped off the stage.

Sitting among a group of enthusiastic and cheering students, his lack of pastoral interest seemed a bit out of place.

Having no choice, I decided on the studio I would go to next.

When Tianyuan returned home and told her family about this, Li Mei just nodded. She didn't understand this. Anyway, it was arranged by the school, so she just went with it.

"Then you need to prepare some clothes to take over, right? Do you want to go to your sister's store to choose some new clothes?"

"After all, you are going to live in the city for such a long time, so you still have to dress decently."

Tianyuan shook his head: "No, the clothes I had before are fine."

What's the point of dressing up when going to the studio? She remembered that there was a master in the studio she stayed in before who didn't take a shower for half a year, and didn't take a shower until he returned home after taking exams. Later, it was said that he was admitted to the National Academy of Fine Arts. This behavior was used by the studio for publicity. Many art candidates followed suit and stopped taking showers.

It's not like this in rural areas. You still have to take a shower, but dressing is more casual.

Tian Yu looked at Tianyuan reluctantly. After Tianyuan left, no one would take her to play or buy her delicious food.

Tian Zhi's concern was different, "Does your studio provide food and accommodation?"

Tianyuan: "House and lodging are included, but food is not included."

"What about eating? How much does it cost to eat out every day? Why don't you bring some pickles and bacon from home, buy a rice cooker like that, and see if you can cook your own food where you live."

Tian Zhi said enthusiastically: "I see someone in the village has bought that kind of pot. You can cook rice just by plugging it in without burning firewood. It can also be used for cooking."

Li Mei gave him a sideways look: "You're just making a fool of yourself. How can we be the same as at home outside? Do you think the electricity bill is free?"

She turned to look at Tianyuan and said, "Don't listen to him. What does your father know?"

"Look at how much it costs. I'll go to town with you tomorrow to pick it up for you. Bring more with you. Everything outside is no different than at home. Everything costs money."

Tian Yuan smiled and said: "The tuition is 3,000 yuan, the food fee is 300 yuan a month, and 1,800 yuan for half a year, so it costs almost 5,000 yuan."

Tian Zhi took a deep breath and looked at Tian Yuan with wide eyes in disbelief: "You want so much?"

"Well, this is the minimum, plus daily necessities, but that's not much, one or two hundred should be about the same."

Paper towels, shampoo, soap, washing powder, toothpaste and toothbrush... According to Tian Zhi and Li Mei's savings, they should use them sparingly. Except for paper towels, everything else should be bought once.

"The tuition fee is discounted because the people who enroll in the studio are graduates of our school."

Tian Yuan continued: "But I have money myself, so you don't have to give it to me, Mom. My sister and Xiao Yu also have a lot of tuition fees."

Li Mei lowered her head and said nothing. She was still calculating how much money she would need.

She had also been to the city. How could she use the Tianyuan newspaper’s living expenses so low? Just ordering any dish in a restaurant costs seven or eight yuan. Fried rice is cheap, basically only two yuan a portion, but you can't eat fried rice every day without vegetables, it's too nutritious.

Li Mei calculated that her monthly living expenses must be at least five hundred.

The cost of living in this city is too high!

This is still covered, if not…

Fortunately, the family now has a stable income. In the first two years, I would have borrowed so much money without knowing where to borrow it. Li Mei rejoiced in her heart and said calmly: "You can deposit your own money in the bank. Your business also has expenses, so I won't care about it. The tuition will be paid by the family. Now the family has some savings. With this little money It’s still affordable.”

Tian Zhi looked at Li Mei in confusion. He didn't care about the accounts and didn't know how much money his family had, but this time the tuition for the three sisters was almost 10,000!

Looking at Li Mei's calm face, the deposit must be more than 10,000, Tian Zhi seemed to be in a dream.

Is it true that your family is already so rich?

Tianyuan raised his eyebrows and reluctantly agreed. She had already guessed that Li Mei would say this. In Li Mei's view, students' task is to study hard, and they should not worry about tuition fees. If Tianyuan's business had not delayed her schooling, Li Mei would not have allowed her to continue doing it.

Tian Yu was the most careless, only thinking that no one would play with her at home in the future. The eldest sister stayed in the store during the monthly holiday, and the second sister was also going to the city... She sighed silently, it seemed that she could only spend more time with Fangfang.

----

On the day of departure, the school arranged a bus to wait at the school gate.

Tianyuan dragged his suitcase, carried a tool box in one hand, and carried a painting bag on his back. He followed the large group to the school gate with Xia Wen and Tan Wanqin.

The other students are still in class, and they are the only group of high school art students in the entire campus who are carrying a heavy workload.

"Ah! I forgot to bring the cotton shoes that my mother prepared for me! I took them out when I was loading things and forgot to put them back."

"I forgot to bring my English dictionary..."

"What are you doing with that? We are going to learn to draw. How can we have time to memorize words?"

"Yes, I asked the seniors, except for lunch time, they have to paint in the studio from seven in the morning to ten in the evening."

"Really? It takes so long to paint? Your butt is going to be swollen!"

……

After stuffing everything into the luggage compartment, Xia Wen asked, "Should we buy some snacks to take to the car to eat? It's going to take a long time in the car!"

Tan Wanqin also had this idea: "Okay, otherwise it would be too boring to sit in the car for so long."

Tian Yuan glanced inside the car and waved to the two of them, "You go ahead. I won't eat in the car. I'll wait for you in the car."

Tian Yuan went to the car first, and there was no one in the car. Tian Yuan chose the window seat in the first row on the right and sat down, opened the curtains, and looked at the school gate.

Some students who forgot their belongings put down their luggage and ran away. Some students went to the canteen like Xia Wen and others. Some students were chatting near the car and had no intention of getting on the car now.

Tianyuan watched for a while and then closed his eyes to rest. The car was quiet and no one came for a while.

It seemed that not long after, there was intermittent noise outside.

The bell rang, and the high school students' endless energy was squandered on the playground.

Fortunately, the car was far away, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to sleep. Tianyuan thought drowsily, and soon he seemed to hear someone getting on the car.

When Tian Yuan opened her eyelids, she saw Fang Yue and Chen Chen each passing a plastic bag in front of her, which obviously contained some snacks.

Fang Yue: "We are here to see you off. I didn't expect you to have the leisure to sleep in the car!"

Chen Chen laughed and said: "Whether you like to eat these or not, you have to eat them anyway after we brought them."
