070: "Uncle's tuition".
The family sits around the table and enjoys lunch after hard work.
Qi Yueran had been working all morning, and her appetite was much worse than before.
Fortunately, my grandmother's meals have always been light and less oily.
Qi Yueran ate a lot of vegetables and dug up some chili sauce bibimbap.
After the appetizer, the appetite came back immediately.
"Eh, I happened to be here by chance, and I happened to meet your family having lunch!"
"Secretary Chen came to our house at noon, what's the matter?"
Fang Lanjun hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks, wiped his hand on the apron again, and greeted the door.
Chen Hao is the secretary of the village branch of Dongshan Village, where Ye Huaping's family is located.
He is not very old, and he can be regarded as an intellectual youth who goes to the countryside.
Under his leadership, the entire Dongshan Village has gradually improved.
He is a good secretary in the mouth of the villagers.
"I'm looking for something to do with Dean at noon today."
"Ye De'an! Are you sneaking into trouble behind my back again? โ
Fang Lanjun saw that Secretary Chen had come to the door, and first felt that something was wrong.
"I didn't!"
Ye Dean stiffened his neck and blushed to argue for himself.
"Sister-in-law, don't get excited, it's a good thing!"
Secretary Chen stepped forward, took out an envelope from the briefcase in his hand, carefully patted the fine confetti on it, and then handed it to Ye De'an with both hands.
Ye De'an's expression was puzzled, and he didn't know who would write to him.
Frowning, he was ready to stretch out a hand and catch it casually.
Ye Huaping was still on the side, and reminded solemnly: "Secretary Chen is here to deliver something to you, and it is basic politeness to take it with both hands." โ
Ye De'an bit his lower lip wryly, and stretched out two hands to take it.
He first glanced at the words on the envelope, and his expression gradually became flustered.
Trembling and unwrapping the envelope, he frowned earnestly and looked at the words on the letterhead.
Suddenly, his demeanor became flustered again, and he said with a word in his mouth:
"I got in, I got in!"
When Ye Huaping heard this, he also hurriedly stepped forward and looked at the letter paper in his younger brother's hand.
After reading it, he said to Fang Lanjun excitedly: "Mom, my brother has been admitted to the first middle school!" โ
Fang Lanjun only went to elementary school.
I don't know a few words.
It was only by looking at the red official seal on the letter paper that I realized that what the children said was true.
"Got into a high school?"
The arrival of this good news can sweep away the tiredness of the family's harvest in the morning.
"Yes, Mom, I exceeded the score line by sixty or seventy points, the first in the school, and the top fifty in the city!"
"Okay, you two good boys, just know how to read, and you can get out of this mountain."
Qi Yueran was on the side, also happy for his uncle.
She wasn't surprised.
Because she knew that her uncle would not only be an excellent student in No. 1 High School.
Three years later, in the college entrance examination, my uncle was also admitted to medical school, and he will be an excellent doctor in the future.
"Okay, sister-in-law, you go on eating, I'll go first."
Secretary Chen smiled and pulled up the bag in his hand and prepared to walk out of the door.
"Look at my brain, I forgot that Secretary Chen is still there, Secretary Chen hasn't eaten yet, do you want to eat some together, I'll go to the kitchen to scramble two eggs, Ade, follow me to make a fire."
Ye De'an listened to the words and immediately prepared to get up.
"No need, I'm just taking advantage of lunch time when everyone is at home, so it's convenient for me to deliver the notice, and I have to go to the next classmate's house soon!"
Secretary Chen waved his hand and was about to walk to the door.
"Then let's go again with the two lotus pods, they were just picked from the field, and they are very fresh."
"Sister-in-law, we don't take a stitch from the masses, if you have to give me lotus seeds, I can only find my wallet and buy it."
"Okay, Mom, let's just thank Secretary Chen, he still has something."
Ye Huaping persuaded Fang Lanjun, and then turned around to talk to Secretary Chen: "Thank you, Secretary Chen, please take a trip." โ
"Don't bother, you guys eat quickly, don't be cold!"
ยท
After Secretary Chen left, Fang Lanjun was still sighing:
"It's really a good official, he didn't take us, and he sacrificed his lunch break to send notices one by one."
Communication in the village is underdeveloped, and the house number is not accurate.
Usually the messenger does not deliver the letter to the door one by one, and in most cases, the letter is left in the village office.
Every once in a while, the villagers go to the village to see if they have any letters of their own.
But this time, Secretary Chen sent the high school admission notices to the villagers' homes one by one.
It can be seen that he attaches great importance to children's education.
"But ......"
Fang Lanjun sighed helplessly while being pleased:
"Ade's tuition...... That's still a problem. โ
At the dinner table, the joy just now turned to silence.
Instead of putting vegetables into the bowls, the children looked down at the rice in the bowls.
I have mixed feelings.
Ye De'an has put in a lot of effort for this moment.
As a student of a township junior high school, being able to be admitted to a middle school is the pride of the whole village.
There is a high probability that I will be able to go to college in the future.
If you are willing to put some effort into it, it is not a problem to go to undergraduate.
What's more, he is still in the top 50 in the city.
"Let's eat," Fang Lanjun chewed the food, and said again, "I can carry it clearly, just casually said, the tuition matter will be solved by my mother." โ
She was glad that her son had achieved such impressive results, but she couldn't help but worry when she thought of the high tuition fees that her children had combined.
In order to support her children's education, she worked tirelessly and tried her best to support the family.
Even if Ye Siyuan's salary is added, the family is not rich.
What's more, the eldest daughter Ye Huayun was not admitted to high school after finishing junior high school, let alone secondary school.
I entered the society early, and now I don't have much communication with my family.
This made Fang Lanjun feel even more guilty, and he always felt that he owed Ye Huayun too much.
can think of his eldest daughter's character, but he has no choice but to go with her.
"Mom, you don't have to worry about my tuition, I found a part-time job at the end of the semester, saved some money, and now I start a business with Yueran, the momentum is very good, and I can even take out money to subsidize my family."
For a lunch meal, Ye Huaping has almost eaten now.
She put down her chopsticks, took a deep breath, and said the words she had prepared in a serious manner.
"Don't worry about family affairs!"
Although the family conditions are average, Fang Lanjun doesn't want to think about money when the child is still studying.
"You are a tutor, I know, you said to start a business with Yueran, what's going on?"
"Yue Ran is a closed disciple of a famous professor in the Department of Industrial Design, and we designed a small fan together at the end of the term, which has been docked with the factory for production, and the physical store is estimated to be installed at the beginning of the school year, and the pre-sale effect is very good, and it is estimated that we can make money."
Fang Lanjun became very anxious when she heard that her daughter was in school and was still engaged in self-employment.
"You're still in school, how can you go into business, it's too much of a delay in studying, I don't allow it!"
Even with it, her expression became unkind when she saw Qi Yueran.
Ye Huaping knows his mother very well.
She must not allow herself to do anything other than her studies during her time in school, especially the unstable and despised thing of self-employment.
She thought about it, so she had to move out of Professor Wei's famous name to save the emergency.
"Mom, don't worry, this matter is absolutely serious."
"The graduate student team of the school often cooperates with outside manufacturers, and our professors are also invited to help enterprises with design and technological innovation."
"Yueran is practice-oriented, so the professor has a lot of projects in his hands."
"And our start-up funds are all backed by the school, so you can rest assured that we won't be scammed."
โโฆโฆโ
Fang Lanjun looked at her daughter's tired but determined eyes, feeling distressed and relieved.
She believes that Ye Huaping is a good boy.
She also knows that her daughter has given a lot for this family, even sacrificing her own time for rest and entertainment.
And the child has grown up, and it is worth encouraging to dare to fight.
A daughter can't be under her control forever.
I can't feel too sorry for my daughter, which will hinder her growth and progress.
What's more, she doesn't have a high vision and can't provide good life choices and guidance advice to the first college student in her family.
Fang Lanjun's frowning brows relaxed, but whether there was relief or worry flashing in his eyes was indescribable.
She sighed and said, "You have always been the most sensible child in the family, but you don't have to work too hard. You can start a business as a workout, but you don't have to think too much about money, Ade and your tuition fees and your dad and I will have a way. Since we have given birth, we must be able to afford it! โ
When Ye Huaping heard this, the tip of his nose was sour.
"Mom, I see."
ยท
"Auntie, here are the guests again."
Qi Yueran shouted loudly into the kitchen.
Ye Huaping and Fang Lanjun were still washing dishes in the kitchen.
She originally wanted to follow up, but Fang Lanjun said that she couldn't let guests into the kitchen anymore.
Qi Yueran helped them harvest the rice all morning, which was hard enough.
"Who?"
"The aunt of the family on the mountain, who came to buy fish."
"It's coming!"
Qi Yueran lay back on the chair and played a fan.
Leave the aunt in a daze:
[Strange, I haven't seen this girl, Hua Yun doesn't look like this, how does she know that I live in the mountains? ใ
Seeing Fang Lanjun walk out, the aunt came back to her senses and asked:
"Lan Jun, at this point, your man is not at home, is the fish for sale?"
Fang Lanjun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
"Of course, sister, I'll go fishing."
She replied, tears in her words.
For her, every business cannot be let go now, it is an opportunity.
Ye Huaping and Ye De'an's tuition fees for so many years have been saved up by her so much.
Fang Lanjun took the scales and net bag and walked to the fish pond in front of the house.
Her movements are skillful and fluid, as if it all became her instinct.
Her figure looks so determined and busy in the sun, and every movement is full of love and anticipation for life.
Qi Yueran also followed Fang Lanjun over.
Standing by the fish pond, I watched my grandmother skillfully put away the fishing nets, and the fish jumped around in the nets.
The sun shone on her grandmother's body, making her seem so resilient and capable.
This scene made Qi Yueran have a flash of inspiration.
It dawned on her that maybe she could develop her grandmother's farm into a farmhouse to raise money for her uncle's tuition.
Grandma's fish pond has a natural advantage.
Surrounded by green rice paddies, and green hills in the distance.
The scenery here is picturesque and refreshing.
Moreover, the fish in my grandmother's fish pond are all naturally farmed.
The taste is delicious and makes people linger.
If you sell it all, it's sure to attract tourists from the city.
It's just that she doesn't know what the farmhouse market is like in this era and what the development prospects are.
If you can really earn money and develop for a long time, not only the tuition fee for this period of time, but also your life will be much better in the future.
Not only that, but his grandfather Ye Siyuan no longer has to work in a chemical factory.
If you live in the fields all the time, your body will be healthier and you will be able to live longer.
