Jiujiu earned more than 50,000 yuan. She gave 40,000 yuan to Steamed Bun to invest in the stock market. She took 5,000 of the remaining 10,000 yuan and gave the rest to Father Bai.
As soon as Jiujiu handed the money to Father Bai, Father Bai quickly stuffed the money into Jiujiu's hands and feet. "Take it. Your mother and I have hands and feet. Besides, you bought so many things. You'll be in your third year of high school soon. Buy yourself more clothes and eat more good food so that your nutrition can keep up."
Other children were white and chubby at the age of eighteen, but Jiujiu was tall and thin like a willow branch. She looked like she could be blown away by a gust of wind.
Actually, according to a normal person's aesthetic standards, Jiujiu's figure was very good. If there was more, it would be too much. If there was less, it would be too bland. However, in front of their parents, the fatter their child was, the better.
Jiujiu forcefully stuffed the money into Father Bai's hands and said, "Dad, my homeroom teacher said that she applied for a scholarship for me. I think there'll be news tomorrow. There's a lot of scholarship, so it's enough for me. By the way, I bought you a few pairs of rubber shoes. You'll wear them when you work in the future, okay?"
"Okay." Father Bai nodded, but his eyes were a little red.
Jiujiu turned to look at Mother Bai and said, "Mom, I bought a few new clothes for you and grandpa. You can wear them in the future."
"Why didn't you buy clothes for your grandmother?" Mother Bai saw that Jiujiu talked about Father Bai and her grandfather, but she didn't mention Grandma Bai at all. She instantly became anxious.
Although Grandma Bai treated her badly, filial piety was a huge mountain that could almost crush people to death.
Jiujiu bought new clothes for the whole family, but she didn't buy clothes for Grandma Bai. When the time came, it wouldn't be good for others to talk about it.
Jiujiu raised her head and looked at Mother Bai's worried eyes. She said, "Mom, Grandma is so bad to you. Why are you still thinking about her? Besides, Grandma is lying in bed now. She can't use anything I buy for her. "
"But …"
Mother Bai still wanted to say something, but she was silenced by Father Bai's glare.
Mother Bai was the daughter-in-law, so she couldn't say anything. However, Father Bai was Grandma Bai's son, so he had the most right to speak.
He really didn't like his mother. If it weren't for filial piety, he wouldn't even want to look at Grandma Bai.
In the past, when Grandpa Bai was in poor health, Grandma Bai would find trouble every day. She would either scold him or Mother Bai. It was fine if she scolded them, but she knew that Grandpa Bai's health wasn't good and couldn't be bullied. She still said those provocative words to scold Grandpa Bai all day long, telling Grandpa Bai to die.
Now that she was paralyzed, Grandpa Bai's body was getting better day by day. In the past, he couldn't do without taking medicine. Now, he hadn't taken medicine for a few days, but he was very energetic. Although superstition wasn't desirable, Father Bai felt that Grandpa Bai was cursed by Grandma Bai.
Jiujiu didn't think of Grandma Bai. Father Bai wasn't sad at all. Instead, he felt that Jiujiu actually had a good temper.
If everyone was like Mother Bai, doing those things that wronged themselves for the sake of filial piety, Father Bai would be distressed.
Because of Father Bai's eyes, Mother Bai didn't dare to continue talking about Grandma Bai. Jiujiu was particularly happy on this day.
The next day, Jiujiu was going to school.
Father Bai didn't work on purpose. He wore the new clothes and new shoes that Jiujiu bought for him. He rode a bike to send Jiujiu to school.
They separated at the school gate. Father Bai watched Jiujiu walk into the school before he rode away.
After returning home, Father Bai saw that it was still early and he could still work for half a day. He directly wore a new set of clothes and went to work.
Seeing that Father Bai, who used to be dressed in shabby and dirty clothes, was wearing a new set of clothes, his co-workers immediately asked him about it.
Father Bai raised his head high and said proudly, "My daughter bought it for me."
Speaking of Jiujiu, there was no one in the village who didn't know her. After all, she was the only girl in the village who was especially good at studying. Moreover, she was the only one in the village who was admitted to the city's high school. Speaking of Jiujiu, there was no one in the village who didn't know her. Now that Father Bai said that the clothes he was wearing were bought by Jiujiu, the villagers immediately gave him a thumbs up.
Filial piety.
Father Bai raised his head proudly. His expression was indescribably proud. Wasn't it filial piety? His Jing Jing was the most filial.
When Jiujiu arrived at the dormitory, Xue Qian and Liu Jing had already arrived. Seeing Jiujiu come in, they immediately greeted her affectionately. Xue Qian was even more direct. She took Jiujiu's schoolbag and started to eat.
Jiujiu had a lot of things today. In addition to the pickled vegetables she made at home, she also asked Mother Bai to buy pork jerky and made pork jerky specially for Xue Qian and Liu Jing.
Jiujiu's cooking was needless to say, not to mention that there were no preservatives or additives in the jerky. It was made of pure pork. It was so delicious that Xue Qian could even swallow her tongue.
Jiujiu took a total of three boxes of pork jerky. Xue Qian and Liu Jing tacitly took their own boxes. As they ate, they praised, "It's so delicious. Jing Jing, if you open a restaurant, my restaurant can close down."
Her cook was a five-star chef, but compared with Jiujiu's cooking, he was just a piece of cake. Liu Jing narrowed her eyes happily while eating.
Xue Qian was even more direct. She ate without saying anything.
When they were almost done eating, Xue Qian and Liu Jing pulled Jiujiu aside to discuss the allocation of classes.
Naturally, the third-year students were also divided into the key class and the ordinary class. However, the ordinary class was also divided into different grades. Jiujiu was ranked third in the school this time, while Xue Qian was ranked 20th. Liu Jing was ranked 35th, but according to their grades, the three of them could definitely be assigned to the same key class. However, Jia Lin was miserable.
Last time, she was ranked behind the top 100. This time, she was ranked over 150. She would definitely be kicked out of the key class. The three of them discussed that if Jia Lin was kicked out of the key class, she would naturally have to return to the dormitory. If there was one less person in the dormitory, there would naturally be one more person coming in.
It would be fine if someone they were familiar with entered the dormitory. However, if it was a troublemaker like Jia Lin, it would be extremely annoying. Therefore, Xue Qian and Liu Jing wanted to discuss with the head teacher not to transfer someone to their dormitory.
Just when the three of them were at the peak of their heated discussion, the door was opened from the outside. They saw Jia Lin walking in with a long face. When she saw Jiujiu and the other two sitting together and talking with smiles on their faces, Jia Lin's face was so gloomy that it could drip water.
In the past, she had ridiculed Jiujiu. In the end, Jiujiu was ranked third in the entire grade, but she was so miserable. Her ridicule at that time was in stark contrast to Jiujiu's current achievements.
Jiujiu, whom she had ridiculed, had done so well in the exams. On the other hand, she was even worse than last time. She had done so badly in the class allocation exam this time. When the results were out, the form teacher had already said that she could not continue to stay in the key class this time.
Today, she came over to prepare to move to the new dormitory.
