With Li Jianbo's help, Li Wei successfully passed the high school entrance examination and entered the high school department of Chengnan Middle School as he wished. I will be a high school student in the fall.
After the graduation class meeting, Li Wei completely ended his junior high school life.
The sun at the end of June was scorching the earth, and she walked out of the school gate. Some classmates came to say goodbye to her, and Li Wei said goodbye to them with a smile.
Li Wei held up an umbrella and had to go out on his own. But after crossing a few streets, she felt sweaty. She walked to the shade of a tree to hide in the shade for a while.
Not long after he stood down, Li Wei saw an aunt opposite who was bending down and struggling to move a box of things. However, she couldn't move it after several attempts, and there was no one nearby who could help. Without thinking, she walked over and helped the aunt.
Seeing that she was a middle school student, the aunt smiled and said, "You can't tell that this little girl is quite strong."
Li smiled and said: "I have been used to farm work since I was a child, so I have developed my strength."
It was a bit difficult for the aunt to carry two boxes by herself. Li Wei was so enthusiastic that he wanted to send the Buddha to the west. He picked up a cardboard box and wanted to help the aunt deliver these to her home.
Seeing that Li Wei was willing to help, the aunt was very grateful: "Thank you so much. It's really been a big help. Fortunately, our home is not far from Taipei. We can reach the end of this street and turn right."
Li Wei followed the woman and helped deliver the things home.
"Students, come in and blow on the fan for a while and take a rest. It's so hot outside."
Li Wei was about to say no, but suddenly he heard a ping-ping-pong-pong sound coming from behind the room. He didn't know what the sound was, which made Li Wei feel a little curious. The aunt poured Li Wei a glass of water. Seeing her curiosity, she smiled and said, "That's our Tingting learning boxing from her father."
"Boxing?" Li Wei thought it was interesting. She had known that some women practiced martial arts since childhood, but she didn't expect that they also existed in this era. Seeing that Li Wei was very curious, the aunt asked her to go over and have a look.
Li Wei opened the back door and saw a girl about the same age as her in the yard, making moves under the guidance of a middle-aged man. The girl was tall, but her movements were agile and every punch she punched was filled with wind, which made Li Wei look straight in the eye.
Chen Yating felt a little tired after taking a shot, so her father said to her, "You should rest for a while." He handed her a towel.
Chen Yating was sweating profusely, and while she was resting, she saw a girl standing at the door. She was quite tall. She walked over and greeted, "Are you also coming to my dad to learn martial arts?"
Li Wei shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm not..."
Chen Yating's mother said: "This classmate helped your mother. I asked her to come in and sit down and rest for a while."
When Chen Yating heard about it, she quickly thanked Li Wei and said, "Are you from Chengnan Middle School?"
Li Wei nodded and said, "Yes, what about you?"
"I will also go to Chengnan to study as a freshman in high school next semester."
The two girls hit it off without saying a few words, and later they both started laughing.
"It's really fate. Your home is not far from here. Come to our house to play in the future." Chen Yating was straightforward.
Li Wei agreed.
She stayed at Chen's house for nearly half an hour before going back.
When I got home, there was no one at home. The shop must be busy at the moment. Li Wei put away his schoolbag, poured a large glass of water and took a few sips. After resting for a while, he went to the shop to help.
After finishing their busy work, Liu Chunzhi and Li Wei said, "You will officially have a holiday starting today, right?"
Li Wei nodded and said: "Yes, more than two months of leave. I'm here to help mom, and how about mom calculating my wages?" Li Wei said this with a playful smile, but didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Liu Chunzhi was annoyed: "You have the nerve to ask for wages, shouldn't your own business help?"
"If you don't want to give it, don't give it. Mom is really stingy. I just said it casually."
Liu Chunzhi tapped Li Wei's forehead and said, "You really love money."
Li Wei chuckled and said: "Money is a good thing, who doesn't like it."
"Okay, I don't need your help here for the time being. Your brother and your father can be busy for the time being. You can go back to the countryside for me tomorrow."
"What do you want to give me?"
"Your grandma is sick. I heard she is in the hospital, but I can't leave. You go back and help me take care of her for a few days."
"Oh." It wasn't much of a job. He was more comfortable in the countryside than in the city, so Li Wei agreed.
On the next day, Li Wei packed a baggage, took the car back to Yongning, and went to Changle.
Grandma was very happy to see Li Wei coming and pulled Li Wei to ask questions.
Li Wei saw that her grandma was in good spirits, so she asked her aunt in private: "What's wrong with grandma?"
Bai Li said: "The doctor said that the blood pressure is a bit high and that he needs to be hospitalized for observation for a few days. As an elderly person, it is inevitable that he will feel uncomfortable here and there."
This is true, not to mention that the old man is nearly eighty years old.
It’s also good to have one more person to take care of.
The old man was under observation in the hospital for several days. The doctor allowed him to be discharged after seeing that his condition was stable. Li Wei and his aunt sent grandma back home.
"Wei Wei has graduated from junior high school, do you still want to continue studying?" Bai Li came over.
"If you want to study, you still have to go to high school."
Bai Li smiled and said: "That's good, I will definitely be more promising than your sister in the future." The sister Bai Li mentioned was naturally Li Wei's cousin Li Xia. The person Li Xia married lives in the same village as her maternal ancestors.
"How is the He family? I think He Chao is doing fine. My sister should be doing fine too, right?"
After hearing Li Wei's words, Bai Li suddenly sneered.
"Weiwei, stop talking. If I were given a chance to make a new choice, I would definitely not arrange this marriage for the He family. Not even two months after the wedding here, the couple is about to get divorced."
"Divorce?!" Li Wei was shocked, it must have been too fast.
"No, the He family complained about me, and your eldest uncle's family also complained about me. Then He Chao looked at an honest and responsible person, and he actually used violence. They got into a fight just a few days after they got married, and it made a big fuss a few days ago. After a while, your sister went back to live with her parents."
A man who attacks women is definitely not a good man, but thinking about some of Li Xia's past actions, she really can't sympathize with her cousin.
As soon as the marriage was decided, the fiancé was surrounded by a cloud of love. Even a man would not be able to swallow this breath.
Bai Li said: "I made a mistake about this marriage."
Grandma Li Wei heard this and couldn't help but said: "I said you just like to meddle in other people's business. Why do you care about the affairs of Lao Li's family? Why bother to make trouble for yourself now?"
Bai Li also wanted to slap her ears.
Just as they were talking here, He Chao's mother came again, and Bai Li had to deal with it hard.
