Li Fei crossed the street with a bag of Chinese paintings on his back, walked briskly under the eaves of the storefront and walked in the direction of home. The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and you can hear the clicks of raindrops as big as buttons on the glass and the eaves of the roof.

Her cloth shoes were already half soaked, so she had no choice but to continue walking briskly while the rain did not get heavier.

I finally walked to the mouth of the alley not far from my home, and the rain blurred my eyes, and before I could catch my breath, I heard the sound of a car passing by.

"Ding Ding Ding--" A bicycle was driving in towards the mouth of the alley.

Li Fei ran to the eaves of a house in front of him to take shelter from the rain, and when he turned around, he saw the man riding a bicycle, twisting and turning into the alley.

She recognized it as Uncle Postman, a postal man who often came here to deliver packages.

"Uncle, is there a courier from Li Fei?" she asked hopefully, without thinking much about it, with the heavy bag on her back.

Uncle Postman stopped and shouted with a smile, "Yes--".

"Is it mine?" Li Fei ran over excitedly, looking at the mail bag that was EMS.

The uncle turned his head to see the wet little girl in front of him, looked at the mail in his hand fixedly, and asked, "Is it Li Fei?"

Li Fei's eyes lit up, and he couldn't suppress his excitement at this time, and nodded seriously.

"Look at the ID card and report the phone number. "The uncle checked it very carefully, and he knew what was inside at a glance, and he was excited to see the little girl.

She was admitted, and Li Fei held the admission letter in her hand and read it over and over again.

When I looked up, I saw that the postman uncle did not leave, but came over curiously to see.

"Admission letter, I'll see, which university?" he smiled and glanced at it.

"Tongcheng University. Li Fei became shy at this time, and she replied in a low voice.

"Oh! that's a prestigious university!" exclaimed the uncle.

Li Fei smiled and took a step back, holding the admission letter in his hand, for fear that the rain outside the eaves would wet it.

"Tongcheng University, you're in the branch of Tongcheng, right? That place is beautiful......" The uncle nodded and said to her with wide eyes.

"Hmm. Li Fei nodded.

The uncle stretched out his head curiously: "I'll take a look! See what major you have!"

"Majoring in Chinese painting. ”

"Yo, you're studying to paint, and you're going to be a painter from now on. The uncle smiled and said, standing under the eaves to hide from the rain. Seeing the little girl with a big bag at her feet and a sketching board in her arm, "Little girl, tell me, what do you learn in this art academy?

Seeing that he looked at his drawing board, she said directly: "Of course not all, in addition to special painting courses, the art academy also has many elective courses. In addition to calligraphy and sculpture, there are also architectural arts and many design classes that can be learned. Of course, there are also many ...... about art theory education."

"Hmm...... Painters became famous after their deaths. Uncle suddenly came to this sentence.

"You can't starve to death, and it's good to be a teacher. He didn't rush away when he watched the rain.

Li Fei didn't know how to tell him, so she smiled awkwardly, "There are also ...... who are famous in the world" But her voice was not as loud as the rain, and the heavy rain covered her voice.

"Oh...... No, I've heard of one, it's called ...... What's it called?" The uncle scratched his head and couldn't think of it for a while, so he simply didn't want to, waved his hand and said, "His paintings are always valuable." Last time I saw a picture in my nephew's art book. Isn't it?"

"Yes!" Li Fei nodded, he didn't expect this uncle to know. She pointed to the college's admissions brochure and said, "This is him." ”

The uncle smiled and nodded, "He's from this university? It's great that you're going to get into this university, girl!".

He looked at the enrollment brochure, stretched out his finger and asked, "The art department here seems to be very powerful, and there are many talents...... I saw that the Chinese painting department is divided into figures, landscapes, flowers and birds. Which one did you study?

"I like to draw people. ”

"Draw one for me in the future, too. The uncle smiled.

Li Fei smiled and nodded.

Seeing that the rain had no intention of stopping, the uncle directly put on a raincoat, covered the bags with packages on both sides, and rode on a bicycle and said to her: "Study hard! In the future, we will be able to produce a great painter in Yuxian County."

Li Fei smiled and didn't say anything more, she thought of her grandfather, who was a painter when he was alive. In the future, she will become a painter like her grandfather......

She turned around and strapped her bag and gently pushed open the door to enter.

When I saw that the door of the front hall was hidden, I thought it was raining heavily, so I closed the door. Her waterproof bag was already covered in rainwater, and she was soaking wet. Taking a breath, he stood under the eaves and put down the heavy bag, his cold hands were almost numb.

She patted the raindrops off her hair, wiped her face, looked at the acceptance letter in her arms, and was about to enter the door to tell her parents the good news. But I vaguely heard what grandma Su Zhen seemed to be talking about with her parents.

"By the way, Feifei is coming back soon, you remember to tell her, you don't need to go to school. "It's grandma's voice.

Li Fei couldn't help but stop.

She stood outside the door, leaning close to the window and listening. When Grandma said the words without the slightest hesitation, Li Fei's eyes widened in surprise and looked at the closed door. I want to rush in and show them the acceptance letter from this university.

But reason told her that she couldn't, and that she had to listen.

Before anyone spoke, Su Zhen continued: "It doesn't matter if you are admitted or not. She didn't look at her daughter-in-law Lin Fang, who had been standing on the side, and she felt that she didn't need to ask her opinion.

The house suddenly became quiet.

Li Fei clenched the admission letter in her hand, she really wished that her father could say something for herself, but nothing......

When Lin Fang heard this, he immediately became anxious, "Mom, Feifei will be admitted." She looked at her mother-in-law, and then at her husband, but he remained silent.

Li Chenghua raised his eyes to look at his mother's attitude, turned his head to look at the closed door, and didn't speak, he couldn't do anything.

When Su Zhen heard this, she raised her eyes and looked at Lin Fang on the side, the corners of her eyes were deeply wrinkled, "Admitted to the school, you also saw it, where does our family still have money to go to college for her now." ”

Lin Fang's heart was cold when she saw her husband like this, she quietly pulled her son, Li Wenhao put down the review materials in his hand and said, "Grandma, didn't you say last time that someone was willing to buy an old house like ours? So that my sister's tuition can be ......"

"Haohao, what are you talking nonsense about! Sell the house? Then where do we live! Your sister is over 18 years old, and she has hands and feet. Su Zhen stood up excitedly. Seeing him stunned and looking at himself, he realized that his voice was a little louder. She cleared her throat, but she didn't get angry in front of her grandson.

"Girls who read so many books are going to get married after all. You parents have to talk about her, she always learns something out of tune, she paints all day long, and she has never been sold, it's time to lighten the burden on this family. ”

Li Wenhao couldn't sit still, so he stood up and said to his grandmother: "Grandma, painting is not the same as making money, just like grandpa!

"You know how expensive it is! It's going to ruin our house! Your father's leg is injured, and now is the time when he needs money. Su Zhen didn't think about anything else, and said directly with excitement. She glanced at her son, who had been silent.

Lin Fang saw that her mother-in-law reacted excitedly, but she still had to speak for her daughter, "Mom...... Feifei is a girl, she is still so young now, where can she work to earn money without education. ”

Su Zhen turned her head to look at Lin Fang, her eyes staring at her, her eyes were cold, "I can let her not have to go to work like you, and marrying a good family early can also reduce the burden on the family." Don't work, don't be burdened. ”

"Mom, what do you mean by that?" Lin Fang heard her mother-in-law's words complaining, complaining that she didn't make money for the family. But who knows her grievances for many years. For a moment, sadness welled up in her heart, and she looked at her husband.

Li Chenghua couldn't help feeling guilty in his heart, his mother had been in awe of him for many years, and he could only weakly say to his mother: "Mom, Lin Fang, she is very good." ”

Seeing her son talking like this, Su Zhen glanced at Lin Fang, who was about to cry, and glared at her son, but she also gave her son a face, she didn't continue the topic, turned her head and said to her grandson: "Hao Hao, you will be promoted one year next semester." Don't worry about the affairs at home, review well. Don't learn from your sister to do those unrealistic things, you have to study hard and get into a good university!" motioned him into the house.

Getting into a good university?

Li Fei looked down at the university admission letter in his hand, and his grandmother said that.

Why can my brother go to college?

Li Wenhao saw that his mother was sad, but he kept standing, and he got up to let his mother sit.

Lin Fang cried at this time, and said: "You are Feifei's father, how sad Feifei would be if she knew that she couldn't go to school! Feifei is so well-behaved, knowing that the family is having a hard time, she goes out to paint portraits before dawn, and all the money you earn is handed over to me so that I can buy supplements for you......"

Li Chenghua suddenly felt guilty, he looked at his mother expectantly, and whispered: "Mom, don't I remember that you still have a painting?"

As soon as Li Chenghua said, everyone in the room looked at him.

Lin Fang never expected that her husband was going to sell the painting, as if she had found hope, she clasped her hands and looked at her husband.

"What did you say?" When Su Zhen heard this, she got up angrily and looked at her son.

"Mom, there's no way around it, my leg is lame, but I still have to work to earn money. Li Chenghua sighed, "It's all my fault, impulsive, causing you to suffer with me." ”

Suddenly hearing his father mention the painting, Li Fei couldn't believe that his father would want to sell the painting that his grandmother had always treasured. It was the only painting that Grandpa had left, and she was holding on to the door and trying to push it in.

"No! no one is allowed to play the idea of that painting!" Su Zhen suddenly got up from his seat.

Li Chenghua frowned tightly, gritted his teeth and stood up in pain and said, "If this leg is wasted, it will be wasted." ”

"Chenghua, you ......" Su Zhen made a straight face, frowned deeply, and saw that her son insisted on getting up.

Lin Fang saw that her husband got up stubbornly and didn't squeak in pain. She hurried over to help him.

Li Chenghua waved his hand, "No, no...... There is nothing left at home, and I am the only one left. He looked at his mother, who had a calm face, and barely stood still.

"Dad......" Li Wenhao hurriedly went to help his father, seeing that he didn't push himself away, he reached out to stabilize his arm, and slowly helped his father back to the chair.

"Mom. Chenghua's legs can't be delayed, Dad's painting ......"

Su Zhen was furious and slapped the table fiercely, "What kind of heart do you have! You also want to fight the idea of that painting! You want to sell the painting so that your daughter can change the tuition? Don't even think about it!"
