13 He whom I ask
When Baixi returned home, it was already approaching evening.
She pushed open the door and saw the two father and daughter working in the kitchen, frowning a little strangely: "The sun is coming out in the west today, you actually go into the kitchen?"
This sentence was naturally not said to Xu Xianxian, but to her husband Xu Renyuan. Since she and Xu Renyuan got married, her husband has only entered the kitchen a handful of times.
Xu Renyuan turned his head, looked at his wife, and said with a smile: "Don't you see Xian Xian cooking and helping her?"
The daughter next to her was wearing a small apron, but her height was too short, which made the apron look a little big, but it still did not hinder her skillful movements.
This kind of small hands that are accustomed to cooking and stir-frying, I am afraid that few people will believe that they are stained with countless blood.
"Mom, you're back!"
Xu Xianxian took the pan and poured the Coke chicken wings into the plate, then turned his head and looked over, with an innocent and flawless smile, "I have worked hard for you today." ”
No matter what kind of identity she has, what changes have occurred in her mentality and personality, she is still an ordinary member of her own family.
This short and ordinary life made her feel like a world away, and the great sense of emptiness in her heart was suppressed at this time.
"Didn't I say it earlier? Every time you go home, don't take charge of the cook, let your mother cook for you. ”
Bai Xi threw Xu Renyuan aside, walked to Xu Xianxian's side with a smile, and poked his daughter's little head.
Then she turned her head, looked at her husband with an unchanged smile, and made a look: "Child, her father, I just bought the battery back, and you come over to help me replace the battery of the desk lamp in the room." ”
"Ahh Oh... Okay, I'll do it. ”
Xu Renyuan was stunned for two seconds, then reacted immediately, followed Bai Xi out of the kitchen, and returned to his bedroom.
And Xu Xianxian stayed in the kitchen alone, watching the figure of his parents leaving, shrugged his small shoulders, and continued to work on the ingredients at hand.
Inside the bedroom.
Bai Xi pulled Xu Renyuan in, and then locked the door.
She walked back and forth on the side of the bed for a few steps before turning her head and asking with a serious face, "Say, is there something important to say?"
Xu Renyuan laughed a little embarrassed, knowing that he couldn't hide it from his wife, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It's about Xian Xian." ”
"What's wrong with Xian Xian?" Bai Xi couldn't help but ask, "Is it about living expenses?" Indeed, the expenses will increase after going to college. She's a girl, and if she doesn't have enough money, I still have some money here, so give it to her. ”
Although Xu Xianxian is not her biological daughter, she is closer than her biological daughter, if Bai Zhen'er makes a request, she will think twice, but if it is Xu Qianxian's request, Bai Xi has never hesitated.
"It's not about the money. Xu Renyuan shook his head again and again, and said in a low voice: "Xian Xian said that she doesn't want to go to school anymore." ”
"I don't want to go to school..."Bai Xi didn't react at first, but after muttering two sentences, he immediately exclaimed: "What?!Don't want to go to school anymore!?"
Without the slightest hesitation, she vetoed the proposal again and again: "No... No, how could she not go to school? She studied hard for 12 years, crossed a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops, and only entered Hongjing University, but she didn't want to study after less than a semester? No, I don't want to study? No, I don't agree. ”
"This is certainly not Slim's idea, she is such a well-behaved child... Is it you, are you not letting her go to school?! Although Zhen'er went to Capital University, her living expenses will increase, but it doesn't mean that she has to sacrifice her slender to complete Zhen'er's studies!"
Speaking of this, Bai Xi's voice was a little crying, for ordinary parents like her, the child who worked hard to be admitted to the university is not studying, it is simply a bolt from the blue, "Money can always be earned, it doesn't matter if we have a hard life, I know that you have a lot of pressure at work, but haven't I been working to share your pressure during this time? No matter how hard you are for your child, even if you smash the pot and sell iron, you have to provide for your daughter to finish her studies." ”
She knew that Xu Xianxian was well-behaved and sensible, but it was this kind of sensible who was too mature and did not conform to her appearance that made her feel extremely distressed.
Xu Renyuan was speechless by Bai Xi's series of questions, and only reacted half-ringingly, looking at his wife whose eyes became red, he was stunned for a long time, and looked at his wife a little helplessly: "No... It's not what you think..."
Is your role in the family so bad?
Xu Renyuan was a little moved, but more helpless, he thought that he was not bad for his daughter...
"You listen to me explain first!" Seeing that Bai Xi was about to cry, Xu Renyuan hurriedly said, "I will never force Xian Xian to do anything, this time she said that she wanted to drop out of school, it was her own choice." Our family's slender is now a professional athlete, and she will have to participate in many competitions in the future, so she has no time to study, so she decided to give up her studies. ”
In the eyes of most people, the social status of federally certified professional athletes is much higher than that of ordinary college students, so Xu Renyuan did not block his daughter's choice.
Of course, if his daughter said that she was going to drop out of school to become a female game anchor, then his reaction might be ten times that of Baixi's now.
"Athlete...?" Bai Xi looked puzzled, not understanding how his stepdaughter became an athlete, "With the appearance and body shape of Xian Xian, can she become a professional athlete?
"It seems to be a boxing fighting type, this one is for you to see..."
Xu Renyuan saw Bai Xi calm down, turned around and went to the bookcase on the side, and handed the stack of certification documents to Bai Xi.
Then came the old half-day's explanation, which was simply easy to say, so that Baixi recognized this fact. And at the dinner table, Xu Xianxian was another wave of lotus flowers, selling cute and pretending to be stunned at all costs, which really made her parents barely settle down.
When Xu submitted the withdrawal materials to the department a week later, her main teachers tried their best to keep her, including Professor Chen, who often targeted the little girl.
Professor Chen sat on the office chair next to him, supported the black-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and looked at the little girl in front of him, I don't know if it was her delusion, when the school first started, although this little girl looked a little tender, at least she was still a junior high school student, but now it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a primary school student.
It feels a little smaller.
She looked serious and asked in a deep voice: "Classmate Xu, your talent is very good, if you study weekdays, you may not be able to study in the future, or even study abroad on public assignment." Although the road of study is tortuous and difficult, in this era, it is a relatively fair and relatively bright path for the public, are you sure you have to give up so easily?"
On this kind of issue, Professor Chen, who pursues rigor, naturally does not say absolutely, but replaces it with the word relative.
It can be seen that although Professor Chen is a little stricter in class, she cannot give up casually for any outstanding student.
Xu Xianxian turned her head and looked at the sports field in the distance through the window of the academic affairs office and the swaying shade.
The weather is cooler at this time, but there are still many young men and women, wearing thin clothes, playing sports or playing. There are seniors who are doing handsome shooting postures, and there are little fans who keep cheering and screaming next to them, which is completely the beauty of a youth campus.
Farther away, the scorching sun hanging high and the white clouds floating in the sky are quietly looking down on everything in the world.
"Teacher, what I am looking for, is not here. Xu Xianxian retracted her gaze, raised her head, looked at Professor Chen in front of her, and looked at the worry in the other party's eyes, she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, but bowed slightly: "This is something I have already decided, it is impossible to change it again, I disappointed you this time, I hope you don't take it to heart." ”
After saying this, Xu Xianxian didn't say much, but took a step and turned around and left the Academic Affairs Office.
Struggling on the line of life and death again and again, the little girl has long understood...
She wants to be the scorching sun.
