She was born in the countryside and grew up in the city. She drank the tap water in the city and went to the best junior high school in the city. If it wasn't for her parents deliberately mentioning the muddy black soil in the countryside when it rained and the primitive or backward life, she would have almost forgotten that she was a girl from the countryside.
Her father was rich, and such a big restaurant was the capital for her to show off to her classmates. It was really better than many families in the city. Ever since she entered the city, she had never lacked pocket money and was famous for being a spender in the class.
She wasn't worried about her studies. In her heart, her aunt had always been omnipotent. As long as her parents had a problem, there was nothing her aunt couldn't solve!
Now, the aunt she relied on actually told her that she wanted to go back to school in her hometown?
This was absolutely unacceptable!
"What's with the fuss?" Old Madam He reprimanded, "Do you know how much effort your aunt and son-in-law put in for you and your brother to go to junior high school?
Look at you, you don't even care about studying. Do you still expect your aunt to continue doing favors for you? I'll discuss with your mother later. If you can't get into the high school here, we'll go back to our hometown and I'll take you to school. "
"Aunt!" He Juan was a little anxious. Go back to her hometown?
She really had no place to cry!
He Fang smiled and said, "Your grandmother is right. I won't feel at ease if I let you go back alone. I'll let you take you with me."
"Aunt," He Juan begged, "I really don't want to go back to my hometown. Grandma is already so old."
He Fang said, "Isn't that all for you? If you don't study hard, what can I do? With your grades, how can I ask for help? Your aunt isn't so thick-skinned. Please spare me. "
"Aunt …"
"I'm driving. Don't hold my hand." No matter what He Juan said or how she pretended to be pitiful, He Fang was indifferent.
Wu Chunyan had no mood to go to work because of He Juan these few days. She simply handed all the work to the foreman, and the two of them lay at home like corpses. Hearing the knock on the door, she listlessly opened it. When she saw it was her daughter, she immediately smiled.
"You'll only be happy if you make your aunt suffer, right? It's such a cold day." Although she was complaining about her daughter, her tone was still very gentle.
"It's fine. I just happened to pick up two kids from school." He Fang didn't seem to care. She sat down and chatted for a while. Then, she said to Wu Chunyan, "I was just talking to her. How can she get into high school with these grades?"
Old Madam He saw that Wu Chunyan's mind was still in a daze, so she quickly added, "If this child has some results, her eldest aunt can still put in some effort. If she doesn't, her eldest aunt will be laughed at to death.
She even said on the way here that if her results are really like this, I'll bring her back to my hometown. Our high school is easy to attend, and the school isn't so tense. They're all her auntie's friends, and she can just say hello. It's not like this big city where she'll lose face. "
Wu Chunyan looked at her eager daughter and immediately understood. She had been doing business for so many years for nothing. She smacked her lips and said, "That's really a problem. Big Sis, you don't have to be so difficult. If she can't do it, then let's do it this way. Let her go back to her hometown. Here, she'll definitely have no future."
"I don't want to go back to my hometown!" He Juan stomped her feet anxiously, her body swaying.
"Then what can we do?" He Fang asked in return.
"Then I won't study anymore!" He Juan blurted out.
Old Madam He said, "Are you going to be an idler at home, or can you go and serve your mother's dishes? If you don't go to school, then there can't be any idlers in this city. Didn't you see the last time we went to buy vegetables? How did those vegetable peddlers get caught? "
Old Madam said it very well.
"Then what should I do!" He Juan was really frightened. She didn't want to be a vagabond.
"What should I do? If I were you, I'd bury myself in books and come out with results. Ask your grandmother, how did I study in the past? I couldn't buy textbooks back then. It's such a thick English book, "He Fang said as she gestured," Did I memorize it all?
Your son-in-law's mathematics is the best. Don't be fooled by his appearance now. When he was in school, he was pitiful. He could not even afford to eat his next meal and could not even afford a piece of draft paper for his calculations.
Look, when we were studying, which one of us wasn't worse off than you?
Compared to you, it's like heaven and earth. "
"My head hurts when I look at books." He Juan argued, "I'm not cut out for studying."
He Fang waved her hand and said, "Do as you see fit. Anyway, you can either study hard or go back to your hometown. If you're going to cheat, you're the one who's going to cheat."
He Juan lowered her head and kicked the corner of the table from time to time. She didn't say anything else.
"I'll go buy some groceries. You can eat here after picking up the child." Seeing her daughter like this, Wu Chunyan was finally relieved.
He Fang smiled and said, "It's okay. His father just stopped drinking these two days. He's like a child. Someone needs to keep an eye on him. Otherwise, he won't take his medicine. If he doesn't pay attention, he'll drink alcohol and light up cigarettes."
"Her son-in-law is addicted to alcohol." Wu Chunyan said with certainty, "Drinking too much is bad for his liver."
He Fang sighed and said, "Isn't he being watched? Otherwise, he wouldn't be so well-behaved."
She chatted with Wu Chunyan for a while before He Long came back. Seeing that his daughter wasn't around, he asked, "Where is she?"
Wu Chunyan pouted towards the bedroom. "She's inside. Don't talk too much. She won't die."
"Hmph." He Long sat on the sofa, picked up the remote control and turned on the television.
"It's time for school to end. I'm leaving." He Fang looked at the time and got up to ask Old Madam He, "Are you coming back with me?"
Old Madam He said in a low voice, "This girl just had a way out. Since she has come down, I'll keep her company for another two days. This daughter is harder to take care of than her son."
He Fang smiled and turned to leave.
At the school gate, she met up with Qiu Liang and Dong Hao, picked up the child and rushed home.
The car stopped. The people in the house heard the commotion and came out at once. Among them, a petite girl surprised her. "Jin Yi!"
Her classmate, Wang Hui's upper bunk.
"Ha, Boss He! It's rare that you think of me. "Jin Yi went up and gave He Fang a hug.
"Why did you come back so suddenly?" He Fang chased Li Yi, who was playing with the snow, into the house and kept chatting with Jin Yi.
"I've been back for a while. I got your address from Wang Hui, so I came over to take a look." Jin Yi glanced at Li He and said with a smile, "When Wang Hui told me that you two were together, I couldn't believe it. When did you start colluding? Moreover, your child is already so big."
"Comrade Jin Yi, watch your words! This is called congenial love! "Li He expressed his dissatisfaction.
