Rebirth begins with rejecting Qingmei

Chapter 258 "Harmonious" Dinner
  Soon it was time to eat.

Two square tables were put together, and nearly 20 people sat around to have dinner.

Xu Xiuwen’s uncle is Ning Zhuo.

The first two characters of the four sisters are the same, and the last character is Chunlan Qiuju.

Ning Wanqiu ranked third, so she was called Ning Wanqiu.

While eating, aunt Ning Wanchun suddenly said: "Third sister, will Xu Xiuwen go to college this year?"

Ning Wanqiu hummed.

The aunt then said: "Then why didn't you notify us to attend the college entrance banquet? What you're doing is wrong."

Ning Wanqiu explained: "There is no promotion banquet."

The aunt asked knowingly, "Why don't you hold a college entrance banquet?"

My aunt and mother have never dealt with her, so this question seemed to be okay.

But everyone knew she was up to no good.

As soon as Xu Xiuwen's college entrance examination results came out, Ning Wanqiu informed her parents, so everyone in the family knew that Xu Xiuwen did not do well in the examination.

Although everyone knew that the aunt had bad intentions, no one said anything.

Grandpa and grandma have always been soft-tempered and couldn't get a word in.

Ning Wanqiu's expression was calm, and she patiently explained: "He has only passed three exams for essays, so there is no need to hold a college entrance banquet."

When the aunt heard this, she immediately said loudly: "The third one is also a university. How can we justify not holding a banquet for admission to higher education? Don't you city people pay attention to this? Our family, Li Lei, was admitted to the first one. Although we live in the countryside, You have to throw a banquet for your children to get into higher education even if you are trying to sell iron, otherwise wouldn’t you be inferior to others?”

Ning Wanqiu said nothing.

The aunt finally showed her claws.

Seeing that Ning Wanqiu was silent, she turned to Xu Xiuwen and said, "Xiuwen, don't blame your mother. She may think it's embarrassing for you to take three exams, so she's embarrassed to do it. It's okay."

After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Ning Wanqiu and lectured: "It's the same for you as a mother. You have too much vanity. Although the three books are not as good as one of our Li Lei's books, they are still in college."

Li Lei suddenly interrupted, "Mom, three books cannot be considered a university, only a college."

Aunt Ning Wanchun didn't understand, so she asked, "Is there any difference?"

Li Lei coughed and explained, "The names of the universities are all such-and-such university. If there are three schools, the names of the schools are all such-and-such college, which is completely different! And their tuition fees are very expensive, it seems to be more than 10,000 yuan a year."

The second aunt suddenly interjected, "So, the three schools are similar to our Wu Qiang's junior college. Their school is called XX Technical College."

Li Lei nodded and said, "There is really no difference, it's just that the score is a little higher."

When the second aunt heard this, she immediately shouted: "Half-time is just like our Wu Qiang, they are in a college. I feel it is not as good as our Wu Qiang. Wu Qiang went to a technical college. At least he can learn a technology and wait until he graduates." It’s easy to find a job, but taking three courses requires knowledge but not knowledge, and skills but not skills. How can you find a job after graduation?”

The second aunt Ning Wanlan reminded her with special concern: "Third sister, you have to get some snacks, otherwise you won't be able to find a job when you come out. Four years of college will not be in vain."

The aunt said: "Xiu Wen, don't be discouraged. Although you didn't do well in the exam, you just need to work hard and strive to win a national scholarship like our Li Lei. This can also help your mother reduce her burden."

Every year at the dinner table, it was customary for the eldest aunt and the second aunt to sarcastically mock Ning Wanqiu.

This situation has become more serious in the past year.

Because my aunt’s son Li Qiang was admitted to a first-class university last year.

In 2005, the number of college students in the village was very small, so Li Qiang's performance earned Ning Wanchun a lot of money. She always praised her son when she met everyone and never missed an opportunity.

When Ning Wanqiu heard what her eldest sister said, she was not angry. Instead, she asked in surprise: "Li Lei won the national scholarship?"

The aunt raised her head with a proud expression. "Yeah, although our family is not short of money, these 4000 yuan are awarded by the state to outstanding students, and we can't refuse it. Li Lei also used this money to buy me clothes. Mom, dad, I brought them here today. Li Lei paid for the wine, and it was his heartfelt wish."

As soon as the aunt said this.

Grandpa and grandma immediately said with a smile: "My grandson is so filial."

The second aunt is very jealous and doesn't want all the glory to be taken away by her alone.

She also immediately said, "Mom and Dad, although our Wu Qiang has poor grades, he is hardworking and willing to work. He made money from part-time job during the holidays and bought you cigarettes."

My second aunt's family brought a carton of cigarettes when they came.

Grandpa and grandma turned to praise Wu Qiang again.

The uncle didn't say anything at this time, but the aunt was thinking about the wine that the aunt mentioned, and planned to go home at night to take the wine back.

Anyway, the old couple don't drink.

As for cigarettes, you can leave a pack of cigarettes for the old man and take the rest back to your uncle to smoke, and you can save money on them.

Aunt Ning Wanju couldn't do anything when she saw her two sisters being in the limelight.

Her daughter is still young, her son has just entered junior high school, and his grades are not good, and their family conditions are average, so they only bought a few large bags of gummy candies when they came.

Seeing that Ning Wanqiu was silent, the eldest aunt and the second aunt asked, "Third sister, what did you bring back? You are from the city. You are not so stingy that you don't buy anything and come back empty-handed to eat, right?"

When grandma heard this, she quickly said: "Qiu'er brought a lot of things back, and I put them in the room."

The aunt curled her lips and continued: "Why don't you just buy some snacks and fruits to send your parents away?"

Grandma waved her hands quickly and said, "No, Qiu'er bought two boxes of wine, two boxes of milk, and two cigarettes. She also bought clothes for us, the old couple, and clothes for He Suo and Lili."

The aunt and the second aunt were a little surprised when they heard this.

Immediately, the aunt hummed: "I show these off every year."

After hearing what grandma said, my aunt and aunt immediately asked: "Did you buy clothes for He Suo (Lili)? Where are the clothes?"

Grandma replied: "They are all placed in the room."

Auntie immediately said to Ning Jiali: "Lili, go in and take out your clothes."

Ning Jiali couldn't stand her mother, but she couldn't resist, otherwise she would be scolded when she returned home, so she had to put down the dishes and chopsticks and go inside to get clothes.

He Suo also put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked into the house at his aunt's signal.

Clothes are easy to find, just put them on the bed.

There were a lot of clothes on the bed. It was easy to distinguish the clothes of her grandparents. Apart from their clothes, they were the clothes that Ning Wanqiu bought for her and He Suo.

Ning Jiali and He Suo took the clothes Ning Wanqiu bought for them and returned to the big house.

Ning Jiali wears three pieces of clothing, a white down jacket from Bosideng, a black woolen sweater, and dark jeans.

The three pieces of clothing look very fashionable.

Ning Jiali fell in love with it after just one look.

He Suo only has two pieces of clothing, a top, a pair of pants, and a pair of Red Star sneakers.

He Suo also liked this set of clothes and shoes very much, and he couldn't close his mouth with laughter.
