Chapter 879 Friendship
Feng Shu did not expect to return to the Federation. The one who warmly welcomed her was not the Jun family, but the Xiao family.
Of course, it is not that the Jun family does not welcome her, but that the Xiao family does not want the way they welcome her is so enthusiastic. Almost all the Xiao family members shook hands with her to express their gratitude when they saw her. Xiao Chongshu's handsome parents even hugged her and cried and laughed. The gratitude was as if the flood was about to completely submerge her.
"Okay, okay, if you cry, the Xiao family will become a sea."
Xiao Yuanshan was very happy that Feng Shu came to visit so quickly. "We originally thought of going to Jun's house immediately, but you, Aunt Isabel, fainted from crying several times, and you were in a state of constant grief and joy and worrying about gains and losses."
"Well, I understand. Aunt Isabel is too happy. Brother Xiao is indeed too scary."
Feng Shu glanced at Xiao Chongshu. He was now surrounded by his parents, and Isabel was still holding his hand, just like his son was still a little boy.
Feng Xiaoqi and Shi Yao had long noticed the abnormal situation and both chose to remain silent.
"I'll take you around the Xiao family?"
Xiao Chongshu wanted to talk to Feng Xiaoqi alone.
"It's not too late to redirect after eating. Now we're just talking. I haven't seen each other for so long, Xiaojiu, you are still the same as before."
"Grandpa, she has grown a lot of strength, her hair is shorter and her skin is darker. How come she is the same as before?"
Xiao Kunsheng was also very happy to see Feng Shu, "Xiaojiu, brother, I have nothing to do, so I will follow you from now on. I heard from my elder brother that the places you are here are fun and there are many interesting things. I also want to increase my knowledge with you."
"I'm afraid it's not very convenient."
Feng Shu doesn't want to have another follower.
Junlin and Twins will definitely follow her. Feng Yun and Feng Shengzhe are not yet determined, but before returning to the Feng family, Feng Xiaoqi and Shi Yao will definitely act with her. In addition, Feng Xuan and Dahe, who is determined to be with Feng Xuan, are already five people. She doesn't want a group of people to follow her wherever she goes.
"Xiaojiu, I was the first to deal with you back then. My sister and Xiaojiu are not as enthusiastic as me, right? I can play with them without me. I will have more colorful life when I follow you to keep you."
Xiao Kunsheng winked and said, "He Yu and He Yang are not married yet. We can go lightly and make a good show wherever we go."
Xiao Zhongqiu hummed, "You are not allowed to go anywhere. Your elder brother has something to do, and the family's affairs cannot be all over Xiaojiu. As an elder brother, do you want to be a deserter?"
"Dad, you don't understand. It is precisely because Xiaojiu needs exercise that I gave him the opportunity. Now he is a good time to exercise. While you are all here, teach him well and teach him by the way. Now our family is only suitable for inheriting the family, passing on each generation, so it is better to establish two generations and teach them together.
Anyway, my elder brother doesn’t want to inherit the family, so my sister and I don’t have the intention to be the head of the Xiao family. Xiaojiu is not stupid, and Tianfang is not lacking in talent, so let the father and son take over the burden. As for me, I want to be a traveler who eats and drinks and plays well, and have a leisurely walk."
"What nonsense to say in front of the guests? Take Xiaoyun, she and Fan Qing are about to arrive."
"What to pick up? Can they still not recognize the way?"
After a moment of head, Xiao Kunsheng went there reluctantly.
"It makes both of you laugh."
Xiao Zhongqiu's old face turned slightly red.
He was just sorry for Feng Xiaoqi and Shi Yao, but obviously he treated Feng Shu as his family and did not regard her as a guest.
"Uncle Zhongqiu, please rest assured. Sister Qi and Brother Yao are both wise people, and there are many brothers and sisters in the family. I still understand this kind of thing."
Feng Shu was very surprised why they remained silent all the way. Apart from occasionally making brief responses, they were polite and distant throughout the whole process. Shi Yao also smiled politely, but Feng Xiaoqi was expressionless and didn't know what he was thinking.
Although she was always involved by her parents, Xiao Chongshu obviously noticed her abnormality and couldn't help but feel nervous.
Is this the meaning of not liking the Xiao family? Or is something suddenly happening so that she has no intention of playing?
"Sit all, sit at will without any restraint. We are all our own family, and it is rare to get together, don't worry about the rules."
Xiao Yuanshan was in high spirits and asked Feng Shu to sit next to him. She sat down with the flow and did not be polite to him.
"Where is Grandma He?"
"Ah, she was too excited to see Xiao Shu and was unwell, so I didn't tell her that you were visiting today, so she would not force herself to meet you again. How long will you stay at home this time? When your Grandma He is in good health, I will go to Jun's house with her to see you?"
Feng Shu shook his head, "No, Grandpa Xiao, health is important. We are not outsiders, and we are so polite. Just be healthy, and the future will last longer. Where is Xiao Jiuheng?"
As the first friend I made in the interstellar era, when I came to his house, I was always unreasonable to mention him.
"He is on a mission, but he doesn't know the news that his elder brother is back, and he doesn't know that you are back. When the mission is over, I will let him take a vacation to come back to see you two."
Xiao Yuanshan was very happy that she would take the initiative to mention Xiao Jiuheng.
"Why didn't the fourth brother come with you? Did he go to work on other things? He didn't even come to see me for so long."
Feng Shu couldn't laugh or cry. People said that the elderly are like children, happy and angry, and turning their backs on them is like turning a book.
"He has injuries, so I asked him to rest at home. Although I haven't come back for so many years, I am still very familiar with Tianjixing. The public security situation here is so good, and I am not afraid of anything else. I think I can handle it, so he feels at ease to let me bring Sister Qi and Brother Yao here."
"Where is your grandfather? Why is he lazy?"
"Grandpa said he had just talked to you before and didn't want to come and drink the tasteless tea you made."
When Feng Shu thought that Junting disliked Xiao Yuanshan's poor tea making skills, he couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Yuanshan's face turned dark, "It seems that he is so kind to him, and he dares to dislike my tea? He doesn't think about what he wants me to drink every time I go to see him."
"What to drink?"
Xiao Kunsheng is back.
"I have been in love with each other since I was a child, but he has only invited me to drink boiled water until now."
Feng Shu teased, "It's not good enough to you? The old saying goes, a gentleman's friendship is as light as water."
This idea is so strong that Guan Jiu, who has not yet figured out the situation, still moves steadily on the path the original owner Hong Yijing wants to take.
With the support of her grandparents and father, what is more important is her own will. Guan Jiu used the money she had hunted and some savings from the three elders to safely finish junior high school.
She was very successful and was promoted to the first place in the city in the middle school entrance examination, and her grades were nearly 30 points higher than the second place. Such results not only caused a sensation in the whole town, but also made the leaders of the county education bureau where she was located happy.
Her scores with such high scores are totally their performance. If she still sings all the way through the college entrance examination, then even the county, the municipal education bureau will be praised for this.
In the forecast of a good prospect, the county education bureau sent a special person and a special car. Accompanied by the leaders of the town middle school, he went to Hong's house to encourage Guan Jiu in person.
Guan Jiu didn't understand why they laughed like a flower. Her passionate appearance not only made her feel a little unacceptable, but Hong Dazhu and others were all very restrained. Ding Chunhua was very talkative, but as she spoke, she would always talk about her other two daughters, saying that they were so well-behaved and sensible, and had a good job.
In the end, Hong Weiguo, who was accompanying him, took over the conversation from time to time, which made the atmosphere less awkward.
After the guests left, Guan Jiusan became a household name in the village.
Of course, she was also quite famous because of her excellent hunting, but this time she became even more famous because of her good grades.
Guan Jiu didn't care about these things. She didn't have time to go on vacation. Hong Dazhu and his wife fell ill as Hong Yijing remembered. Fortunately, this time because Guan Jiu paid special attention, both of them were not as serious as the last time. They were sent to the hospital in time. So when the medical expenses were in place, they were hospitalized for nearly a month and both of them were cured.
However, even though most of the money she used was her scholarship and the money she earned from hunting, Ding Chunhua still stretched her face and was very unhappy. She always drank Guan Jiuhu in the following days, and she didn't have a good face to Hong Aiguo.
Because he also used the family's money and Ding Chunhua was still doing her best when she was with her bed, Hong Aiguo felt that he had no confidence in front of her, so he let her scold her. As long as he didn't say too much, he would endure it.
But what Hong Aiguo didn't expect was that Ding Chunhua would once again ask her to drop out of school because Hong Xiaoxing had already considered going to college to undergraduate, and the family really had no extra money to supply another child.
In order to get Hong Aiguo to agree, Ding Chunhua also listed many girls in the same village who dropped out of school early to work. After making money for a few years, the family became much easier. Some girls were young and found rich and good families to marry after a few years of going out. Some even helped their families build new buildings.
"I don't want to be rich and powerful. She can help her make up for the household expenses after she goes out. Even if she doesn't have money at the beginning, it doesn't matter. As long as she can support herself, our family will be more relaxed. Seeing that Xiaoxing can go to work after studying for a junior college to undergraduate, we parents can't lose track of this key point, right?
The family really doesn’t have enough money, so Xiaojing doesn’t go to school. She is so good that she won’t suffer any loss when she goes out to work.”
"No, Xiaojing's grades are so good, it's a pity not to go. You don't have to worry about her tuition. As for Xiaoxing, she can do it if she wants to continue her studies. If the tuition fees are not enough in the future, you can borrow money by yourself."
Since being beaten once, although Ding Chunhua has been slapping money to death in recent years, she has to restrain herself a lot. At least on the surface, she still gives Hong Aiguo face. Therefore, whether it is the tuition fee issue or when Guan Jiu returns home, there is no big conflict between the mother and daughter.
However, this peaceful situation broke the peace because of the two elderly people in the family, and once again became fragmented because of the children's tuition fees.
When Hong Xiaoxing came back, he did not discuss with him that he would continue to go to college to undergraduate. Instead, he encouraged Ding Chunhua to remove the money from the family and take away all the money that he had finally saved in recent years. He didn't even fight Hong Aiguo for the minimum greeting.
Guan Jiu did not expect that she would encounter the situation where she had no money to pay tuition again. This time she did not go hunting, nor did she go out to work immediately as Ding Chunhua hoped. Instead, she went out a few times after knowing the situation. After coming back, she still stayed at home without any noise. When it was time to farm, she did housework when it was time to do housework, but she ran more to the house where Hong Dazhu and his wife were, and even slept there at night.
When the holiday was about to end, she went to the mountain to hunt for several days, sold the money and handed it over to Hong Dazhu, and then went to the town middle school like when junior high school started.
Because of the changes at home, she went to the school to find the principal, saying that she would not go to the county No. 1 Middle School and hoped to attend the town middle school for free.
The principal naturally hoped that she could stay, and after some operation, she stayed at the school smoothly.
The reason why I don’t worry about money is that if the tuition fees for three years of high school are all exempted, the living expenses will definitely be enough, so Guan Jiu doesn’t have to worry for the time being.
Ding Chunhua wanted to cry and make trouble to drive her youngest daughter to work, but at the beginning of her struggle, Hong Aiguo immediately took her clothes to another room with a dark face, and ate food with her parents, and started a new round of cold war mode.
The head of the family strongly expressed support for Guan Jiu to continue studying, and did not have to pay the tuition at home. Although Ding Chunhua was still unwilling to do so, in order to win back her husband's heart, after Hong Xiaoxing left, no one urged her to make trouble. She quickly convinced Hong Aiguo again.
During this period, Hong Yueliang also returned to his home several times, and for the last time he bought two skirts for Guan Jiu for the first time, saying that this was the opening ceremony.
Ding Chunhua was very unhappy when she saw that she didn't have the share of her second daughter, but she couldn't bear to scold her eldest daughter. She talked a lot and said that she had too many old clothes anyway, so it would be better to send two new skirts to Hong Xiaoxing.
Because Guan Jiu exercises a lot, he always goes up the mountain to hunt and does not lack meat. He has enough food at home. He has a very good appetite in recent years and has also jumped up. Although he is only fifteen years old, he is almost 1.65 meters tall. Although Hong Xiaoxing is a few years older than her, he is still a little shorter than her. At present, the two sisters are about the same size and can wear the same size.
But Hong Yueliang stuffed her new skirt into Guan Jiu's backpack and took her out to take a taxi to the town with her arms around her shoulders. She turned around and had a fight with her mother. That afternoon, she took a angrily back to the county town.
