Ji Shishi got the top score in the liberal arts college entrance examination. After returning from a trip to the capital, she was interviewed by the provincial TV station, the city TV station, and the county also got involved.
Moreover, Ji's ancestral hall must show off such a glorious event. It has been a long time since our ancestors produced a scholar hundreds of years ago.
Ji's Ancestral Hall also held a special ceremony to comfort the ancestors, and rewarded Ji Shishi on the spot with 28,000 yuan for studying, which was funded by the "Descendants Education Fund" of the ancestral hall.
There were awards from the school, the province, the city, the county and the ancestral hall. In just a few days, Ji Shishi received a large bonus.
The amount of money was so large that she could not imagine it.
Although they have not been in contact for several years, this daughter is so powerful that Father Ji's face does not show much concern.
But another person had other thoughts.
That is Li Ping.
More than two years ago, as an older mother, she finally gave birth to her father Ji's child as she wished. For this child, she risked half her life. In the third trimester of pregnancy, she basically went to the hospital to ensure the pregnancy.
After all, as we age, our body functions decline, and the physical fitness of our children after birth is worrying. They have to go to the hospital every now and then, and taking medicines and injections has become a common thing.
In addition, Ji's father still had to drink milk powder, and Li Ping had to take care of the children at home. Her previous savings were almost spent, and her life suddenly became tight.
Giving birth to this child did not make the family happier. Instead, there were constant quarrels, and Ji's father often stayed away at night.
At this time, she set her sights on Ji Shishi. They had paid for her to go to high school, and now it was time for her to help support her family.
For this reason, she even made a show of being pitiful, saying that Ji Huai and Ji Shishi didn't support the family, and kept calling Ji Shishi to ask them to take the money. After Ji Shishi ignored her, she went to beg for help. The elders call the shots.
"We didn't have much ability, but we gave Shishi a lot of money at that time. Now that she is promising, she also helps her brother to help us share some of the burden. This is the only extravagant hope we have." Li Ping was still crying when she said it.
After just three years of not seeing her, Ji Shishi felt that she almost didn't recognize her. She used to have fashionable curly hair and stare at high heels. But now, her hair was half white and wrinkled, and she was still holding that The skinny kid looked nothing like her son. At first glance, he looked like he was raising a grandson.
She was too old, and the child she was holding was very thin, her face was sallow, and she looked like she was not in good health.
For this reason, she couldn't help but feel a little moved, because she actually didn't touch the money her brother got for her. The rent was paid by her brother, her sister-in-law would often send her things, and the school teacher would give her a bursary, and she had always been rated as provincial. Three good students receive a lot of bonuses every year.
Otherwise, give her back the money they gave her
It's not that she is such a holy mother, because the other party was very reluctant to give it at first, but now she has the ability to support herself and does not need this humiliation.
"I have been married to Ji's family for so many years. I have worked hard and earned money to help him raise these two children. Now we really don't have the ability to raise this little one. When they are older, it is time to help us share the burden." Li Ping is still selling awful.
The elder of the family thought deeply for a moment, then looked at Ji Shishi, ready to ask her opinion. Before Ji Shishi could say anything, Ji Huai snorted coldly, "I didn't tell you, how old are you and me? We are also adults. , having a child is not like buying a toy, but having a child for us to raise for you, then is this our son or your son?"
In order to occupy Ji's father's old shabby house, the abacus was quite loud.
Li Ping was criticized and defended herself, "We also gave Shishi a sum of money to study at that time. We didn't treat her badly, right?"
The elders in the family also nodded, "Xiao Huai, that's true. Although you shouldn't raise this child, you still have to help. After all, she and your father also raised you to study and provided for you to go to college."
They must be homesick and happy with everything. Those who are capable can help those who are incompetent, and everyone can just support each other.
"I don't know how to raise it. I'll raise it by myself." Ji Huai said in an indifferent tone, "What does it have to do with me?"
He answered cold-bloodedly, and Li Ping cried to gain sympathy, cursing that he had raised white-eyed wolves when he sent them to school.
Ji Shishi felt bad. She was afraid that her brother would be scolded, so she gently pulled her brother's clothes.
The elders in the family also felt that Ji Huai had gone too far. With a cold face and a raised voice, Ji Huai stood up and asked her, "How did you get the money to study with Shishi? Don't you know?"
"She fell ill in the hospital. Did you care about her life or death? And you became willing to support her to study?"
"My living expenses were cut off before I finished my junior year of college, and I was forced to work part-time outside to support myself. Then I pretended to use the money that I had deducted from me as a reward to give Shishi, so it turned into being kind to Shishi? Do you still need her to raise your child now?"
"Over the years, both you and my father have made money. How much money have you secretly given to Li Haitao? How much have you deducted from my sister? You don't know it in your heart?"
…
Ji's father originally wanted to speak, but was questioned by Ji Huai so that he did not dare to speak out. He felt guilty in his heart. After Li Ping became pregnant, he also acquiesced in not giving his son living expenses. He wanted to raise a child with Li Ping and was of the same mind as himself.
Li Ping planned carefully, but she didn't expect Ji Huai to tell her in public.
It’s a miserable sell, who wouldn’t
Ji Huai's chest rose and fell, and he was emotional, "I have to support myself in my junior year. Is this what you said for us to study? If you support me through college, will I not repay the favor? But have you ever thought about whether I can study? Book? You have always planned for this child, and the money you gave Shishi was the money you were willing to pay because I tacitly agreed that I would not go home and give up the inheritance of the family house. "
"Every good thing has happened to you, why?"
The elders who were originally partial to Ji's father became cold-faced when they heard this. According to the custom here, Ji Huai's father's house is usually inherited by Ji Huai, but now it is Li Ping and Ji's father's children who inherit Ji Huai's house. It was too much for Huai and Ji Shishi to raise this child.
Cutting off the living expenses of children who have not yet graduated is adding crime to crime. It is so inhumane!
"That's not the case. Didn't you find a job by yourself?" Li Ping tried her best to explain, "We thought you made money."
"A junior student has to go to class and study. Where can he go to school? Apart from working early in the morning and working late at night to support himself as a cheap labor force, where can he make money?" Ji Huai asked her.
"You were..."
"Okay!" Before Li Ping finished speaking, the elders in the family became angry and pointed at her, "I think you have evil intentions and are extremely mischievous. Can't two living people not be able to raise a child?"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Ji's father. He shrank his neck and glared at Li Ping, very dissatisfied.
Ji Huai calmed down and said, "When my dad gets old, we will pay alimony on a monthly basis. We will definitely not shirk our responsibilities as children, but we do not have the responsibility to support this child and Aunt Li. She has her son."
The support was after retirement, and it was still very early. It was impossible for him to use money to support the family. He was just fulfilling his responsibility as a son. At first, he agreed that Li Ping would not give him living expenses, just waiting for the other party to make trouble. See how reasonable she is, just waiting to be spurned!
Ji Shishi also nodded.
The other person had raised her and needed to be supported. She was the same as her brother in this regard.
After all, it was his own child. After Ji's father received such a guarantee, he felt even more ashamed and wanted to slap Li Ping a few times.
This seemed like a farce. Previously, it was said in the family that Ji Shishi became arrogant after reading some books and looked down on her family members. Ji Huai also ignored his parents and was a white-eyed wolf. After the incident, he was exonerated of two man's guilt.
The thing is that Li Ping, the stepmother, was harsh and abused her brother and sister. Ji Huai cut off his living expenses while he was still in school. It was simply vicious. She gave birth to a child in her forties and expected the two brothers and sisters to support her, just to fight for the house.
Instead, the two brothers and sisters gained everyone's sympathy. Ji Huai and Ji Shishi also promised to support their parents, making it hard to fault.
Li Ping went to make a big fuss, and Ji's father felt ashamed, and the family was in an uproar. Previously, Li Haitao was on Li Ping's side and could help her, but since she gave birth to her youngest son, she has no money to give to her elders. Her son, her eldest son, was getting married and asked for a bedroom here, but she rejected her request and now they have no contact with her.
It can be said that it was all a calculation, but in the end it came to nothing.
After solving the incident with the Ji family, Ji Shishi was completely relieved.
Before school started, Ji Huai applied for Ji Shishi's driver's license. After getting her driver's license, she went to the capital for a month of military training.
When Ji Shishi entered university life, she entered a bigger platform. She joined the guzheng club, took electives such as Chinese painting and calligraphy, and attended her favorite vocal classes...
Those things she longed for when she was a child are being replenished one by one.
In her freshman year, Zhang Ying graduated from graduate school, got married to Ji Huai, was pregnant and expected to give birth, and Ji Huai, who had a wife and was about to have a child, was so busy that he naturally didn't care about Ji Shishi all the time.
Chen Sheng heard that Ji Huai got married and was happier than anyone else.
It's good to get married, and it's good to be pregnant, so you won't have so much energy to worry about the little white rabbit.
In the same school, Chen Sheng often went to Ji Shishi to show his presence. She chose calligraphy, and so did he, and they went to class together.
Over and over again, when Ji Shishi fell ill once, he accompanied her to the hospital for check-ups, registered with her, and accompanied her to get injections. There was no grand confession, and they just let nature take its course.
As Ji Shishi learned more and more things, she gradually became able to write beautiful calligraphy, could play simple guzheng music, and was able to draw well. When she felt that it was not enough, she would occasionally work on it on weekends. Go to the school piano room, and then learn to play simple piano music from online videos to relax yourself.
She has always been focused and self-disciplined in her work, and she learns things she is interested in very quickly. Chen Sheng has witnessed with his own eyes that she has become better and more confident, and her whole person has a gentleness like water, but she also has a tranquility. The calm temperament makes people feel particularly comfortable. The more I look at it, the more I fall in love with it.
But he taught her how to skateboard for half a year, and she still couldn't do it.
Every Sunday evening, after dinner, Chen Sheng would take his skateboard and lead his girlfriend to the school square to skateboard.
Ji Shishi deliberately put on long jeans, her beautiful legs were slender and straight, put on her cloth shoes, and tied up her hair.
Looking at the skateboard, she put one foot on it and watched the senior sister next to her sliding around coolly. Chen Sheng even tried to persuade her to stop learning, but she just refused to do so.
"You stand, let me help you walk?" Chen Sheng stood in front of her, afraid that she would fall, so he had a good time holding on to her.
Ji Shishi didn't want to, so she held his shoulders and stood on the skateboard with both feet, but didn't dare to move. She looked at the senior not far away with envy.
Chen Sheng looked at the way she dared to move but didn't dare to move. He was determined but timid. He stretched out his hand and hugged her slim waist. He chuckled against her forehead and coaxed her slightly, "Why don't you stop practicing? Shall we go for a run on the playground? We can also play badminton."
Ji Shishi hugged him back, slowly shaking her head with a stubborn look on her face.
"...Then I'll hold both of your hands? Okay?" Chen Sheng was very accommodating to her. Ji Shishi rarely made any unreasonable requests. He almost always responded to her requests and was kind to her with all his heart. His feelings for her continued to grow. The deeper he gets, the more she becomes the person he admires most, and no matter how he treats her, he will never be good enough.
"Grab a hand." She let go of a hand on his shoulder and held up a finger in front of him with a smile.
"Shishi, I'll fall down later." He stretched out his hand to hold her finger, feeling a little worried and frowning. She almost fell down last week and he almost didn't hold it.
Ji Shishi took out her fingers and pushed the skateboard to a wider area with one foot. Chen Sheng sighed and could only follow.
No matter how much you practice, you just can't learn something without talent.
At a glance, everyone else was skating freely and sometimes doing tricks. Her hands and feet were trembling when she moved bigger. When she got tired, she stood aside and watched Chen Sheng play. Unwilling to do so, she tried to step forward again, but every time she ended up in failure. Holding him and looking at others with envy.
Chen Sheng was very patient. Not only was he a sparring partner, he would also buy a cone for his girlfriend to make her happy, and promised to bring her back next week.
Ji Shishi and Chen Sheng had been dating for less than a month, and everyone in the Chen family knew that he had a girlfriend, the liberal arts champion in his class.
We were still in the same class in junior high school at that time.
During the summer vacation of his freshman year, Ji Huai was afraid that Ji Shishi would have no place to live when she came back, so he bought her a small one-bedroom apartment in the city center in her name, but Ji Shishi didn't come back at all.
As long as she has a vacation, she will either travel or teach. If the time is longer, she will interview interns in large companies. Interns in some companies have some money and can learn a lot and practice what they study in school.
Chen Sheng's interests are consistent with hers. He goes wherever she goes, and sometimes takes her to some novel places. When the two of them travel, one looks for routes and attractions, and the other makes strategies. The division of labor is very clear. I don’t like to go to big scenic spots. I like to go to the streets and alleys to feel the rhythm of life of the locals. If I go to the ancient capital, then let’s talk about history and culture together.
After the two got together, Chen Sheng learned about her family situation. Ji Shishi said very calmly that she had the best brother. This was not her shortcoming and she did not need to feel inferior about it.
Chen Sheng would not mind because of this matter, but would only feel sorry for her.
His girl is the best and best girl in the world.
The first time Chen Sheng brought Ji Shishi home was in his sophomore year. Ji Shishi got cold feet and quietly asked Zhang Ying for help.
The other party's parents are teachers. Although they have never taught her, they always find it strange.
"Being connected to a person is also connecting to his family. Go see what his family atmosphere is like and just eat as usual." Zhang Ying told her.
Chen Sheng teased her again and insisted on taking her back. He also said that there was no special meaning and he was just going to have a meal.
Ji Shishi had no choice but to agree and prepare the gift carefully.
She was nervous and uneasy. When she went there, she found that there were many people inside. Chen Sheng held her hand the whole time and introduced her one by one.
Ji Shishi was very well-behaved and sensible. She was following behind Chen Sheng, calling in a small voice, "Hello, grandma."
"Hello, uncle and aunt."
"Hello, aunt."
…
I don’t know if it touched the feelings of his family too much, but they smiled and gave her several red envelopes.
She also thought it was a coincidence that the Chen family's taste was similar to hers, and there were several dishes on the table that she liked.
Later she discovered that this was no coincidence.
Chen Sheng would talk about it from time to time, and her face turned red when he talked about it. During dinner in the afternoon, he specifically told Chen's mother, "Mom, don't add chopped green onion to the omelette. Shishi doesn't like eating it."
"Let's make braised fish, braised pork ribs, not sweet and sour pork ribs."
"Are there any oranges at home? Shishi likes to drink orange juice."
…
After repeating it so much, the whole family remembered it. It was difficult not to remember it, and no one dared to neglect his girlfriend.
She went there again when school started. Without Chen Sheng's explanation, Chen's mother prepared her favorite mangoes and bought oranges to squeeze orange juice for her to drink.
Before going to school, Chen Sheng said that Ji Shishi liked to eat the small fish fillets and pickled radish made by Grandma Chen. As a result, the other party made twenty small cans, and Ji Shishi was stunned.
"I'm tired of carrying it. I'll ask your dad to send it to you later. Give some to your roommate and give it to your classmates and teachers to try." Grandma Chen smiled lovingly, and the more she looked at Ji Shishi, the more she liked it.
"Thank you grandma." She was very embarrassed.
After sending it back to school, Chen Sheng also felt that it was too much and would become stale after eating for a long time. He took the courier back and gave some to his roommate before sending it to her dormitory.
"I'll come down and get it." Ji Shishi said to him softly. She got out of bed and put on her shoes to get ready to go down. When she opened the door, she saw him at the top of the stairs and was startled. "Why did you come up here?"
He explained, "I told the dormitory aunt that we should go down after delivering the things. This thing is quite heavy and it will be difficult for you to carry it up."
Grandma Chen was afraid that plastic bottles would not be good for eating, so she always used glass bottles.
There are surveillance cameras in the dormitory corridors, and the dormitory aunt is very relieved, maybe she is watching him.
"I'm about to go down. Is it heavy?" Ji Shishi walked over to pick it up.
"I'll leave it at the door of the dormitory for you." He walked forward, fearing that he would tire his girlfriend.
"Here." She felt warm in her heart, pushed back, and pointed to the bedroom next to her, her eyebrows arched, "Then you wait for me down below, I'll change clothes and we can go to dinner?"
"Okay." Chen Sheng nodded.
"Shall we go to the food court at Daqianmen?" she said again, unconsciously speaking in a softer tone when talking to him.
"We'll go wherever you want." Chen Sheng pointed to the stairs with a smile, "Then I'll go down and wait for you. Take your time and don't rush."
"Yeah." Ji Shishi watched him go down before turning and walking to the bedroom. He placed it at the door and she pushed it in with a gentle push.
Chen Sheng said that she shouldn't eat too much pickled food, just to satisfy her cravings. He only brought her twelve cans, but asked each of her roommates to share three cans, and she kept two cans of small fish larvae and one can for herself. A can of pickled radish will do.
Ji Shishi did as he asked, and her roommate was pleasantly surprised and thanked her with a smile.
Two days later, Chen's mother sent her another box of large mangoes. Chen Sheng went to pick up the courier and carried it up to her. Ji Shishi couldn't finish it, so he gave one to each roommate.
The roommate always thought it was sent by her family and smiled, "Your parents are so kind to you. My parents have long forgotten that I am a daughter."
Before she could explain that it was given to her by her boyfriend's family, another roommate suddenly screamed, "Ah, Shishi, your boyfriend is so handsome."
"...Huh?" Ji Shishi looked at her confused, what do you mean
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the people in their dormitory have never met Chen Sheng. They are very busy. She and Chen Sheng usually go to the library or other places, and it seems that they have never met anyone in the dormitory.
Another roommate leaned over to look at his phone and his eyes widened, "Oh my god, he's so tall and handsome. Where did he find his boyfriend?"
They usually don't talk about their boyfriends in the dormitory, because most of the time they come back after the lights are turned off, and there are endless things to do every day. They only know that Ji Shishi has a boyfriend, and they don't ask too much about other people's privacy.
Ji Shishi walked over in confusion, only to find that someone had taken their photo and uploaded it to the school post bar. It was secretly taken yesterday when she and Chen Sheng went to the small back door to buy octopus balls.
My face immediately turned red, from my neck to my ears.
"The dog's eyes are blind, the dog's eyes are blind." The roommate wailed, pointing at Ji Shishi, "You actually spread the dog food, and in this way, it is too difficult for singles to survive..."
Ji Shishi has always exuded a calm aura. She is well-organized and easy to get along with. She is not flashy at all and is quiet and well-behaved.
What about in the photo
She was sitting with a man. The man had a handsome appearance, a tall figure, and long fingers. He was feeding her an octopus ball, and she leaned over to take a bite.
This isn't the main thing. Don't couples just love each other
The key is that the boy was smiling and looking at her very intently. His eyes were all about her, and he clearly wanted to let her taste it first.
"I haven't asked about your boyfriend yet. He's from our school, right? How did we meet?" The roommate was curious.
"Yes, how did we meet?"
Ji Shishi was thin-skinned and said simply, "Just classmates in junior high school, classmates in high school, and then..."
Is this more enviable than a perfect encounter on campus? There was another wailing in the dormitory. She didn't have the nerve to stay any longer, so she hurriedly took the book and went to the library.
This post also attracted many people to follow it, because the two of them look so good, they are so eye-catching, and their sweetness makes people look sweet.
So envious.
There are people who know the two people in the post, and it is also revealed that the two have known each other since junior high school, and also in high school. The two are the top scorers in arts and sciences in R Province.
Oh, what kind of magical love is this? Damn aspirational.
However, the photo of this post was deleted in the evening, and the poster posted a message at the top: I'm sorry for posting the photo without the permission of the person involved. I just felt touched and wanted to share it. The senior contacted me and said that they did not want to be disturbed or discussed. The relationship is very good and stable. He loves the senior very much. Thank you for everyone's blessings. I apologize again, very sorry. "
Although the photo in the post was deleted, many people saved it. They were really touched. Looking at the two of them, they felt that it was the purest form of love.
Ji Shishi's roommate would receive some snacks and fruits from her from time to time. Ever since they knew it was sent by Chen Sheng's family, they would joke and tease her, "Shishi, let's do this interview, how do you feel about being pampered by your boyfriend and being loved by someone else?" What does it feel like to be pampered by his family?”
"Don't be like this." Ji Shishi took the book and ran away every time.
In their eyes, Ji Shishi had been doted on by her boyfriend for four years in college. He was a very good student, a top student in the Department of Finance, with a good and gentle temper. He was very patient with her, obedient, and kind to her. She has a brother and sister-in-law who are very good to her. She gives her classmates and roommates the impression that she is a well-protected person who has never been hurt by the world. She has passion for doing things, light in her eyes, and love in her heart.
In her senior year, Ji Shishi went abroad for exchanges and was admitted to the school. Her experience and vision were very rich, and her excellence shone.
When the schoolmates communicated with her, they commented on her as gentle and generous. She was a very good schoolgirl who was easy to get along with.
After finishing graduate school, she and Chen Sheng got married naturally. They had a deep relationship and harmonious relationship. He proposed and she agreed. However, at the wedding, he was still extremely excited and followed her with his eyes, with deep affection in his eyes.
People around Chen Sheng said that Ji Shishi was Chen Sheng's soul, and whenever she appeared, he would become confused.
