In the third year of high school, every day is like a war.
Although Nanhua is known as the "noble school" among public schools, it is also called elite education among noble schools. This is why so many powerful families use their power to send their children in.
Xia Rou has tutors who give her extra lessons on weekends, and she feels much better than in her previous life.
Cao Yang was afraid that she would be stupid in studying, so she was not allowed to study on weekends, and arranged make-up classes on Saturday, so that she could relax on Sunday.
"Be relaxed," he said.
Xia Rou muttered.
"What did you say?" Cao Yang grabbed her ponytail and pulled it back.
"It hurts! It hurts!" Xia Rou said weakly, "I didn't say anything..."
"Why don't you worry about finding a wife for yourself?" Cao Yang gritted his teeth.
"I didn't say, you heard it wrong!" Xia Rou would never admit it.
Taking advantage of Cao Yang's lack of strength, he pulled out his braids and ran away quickly...
ran away…
Lost…
Already...
Girl movie! !
The corners of Cao Yang's mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
Stupid, can't study well, and don't have much mind.
But know how to work hard, be serious, and persevere. If you know you are stupid, you believe that hard work can make up for your stupidity.
Like a little silly bird trying to flap its wings.
Sometimes it's ridiculous to look at, and after laughing, I sigh and feel distressed.
Occasionally, I couldn't help but want to stretch out my fingers, let her not sharp claws grab me, and tell her...
Stop flopping, I'll lift you up... Isn't it all right
The boring study and life every day seems to be unable to feel the flow of time. Let Xia Rou often have the illusion that time has stopped at the age of seventeen.
If so, it's also very beautiful.
Compared with the complicated things she faced after entering society in her twenties, she really prefers to bury herself in the exercise set at the age of seventeen. No need to think about anything, how simple and how good.
"Why do people have to grow up? It's good to be seventeen forever..." At the dinner table, she sighed like this.
This hurts the spring and the autumn, moaning/chanting without illness... The corners of Cao Xiong and Cao Yang's mouths twitched.
"You are so beautiful! I still want to be twenty forever!" Cao An rolled his eyes. "How is your preparation for the final exam next week?"
… Hello! Can you still chat happily!
One semester passed in a hurry. After the final exam, Xia Rou fell on the bed and slept all afternoon when she got home.
When eating at night, he was still dazed.
"Okay, you can relax now." Cao Xing also came back and said. "I'll take you skiing next weekend."
"There is a party for Wang Man's birthday next weekend." Xia Rou just wanted to agree, but Cao Yang interrupted, "Do you want to go?"
Xia Rou's eyes lit up!
"Go, go! My goddess' birthday! Definitely go!"
Then he asked Cao Yang, "Are you going to Wang's house? A dinner party?" Then I had to prepare a dress or something.
"No, it's just a party, everyone gets together, you don't need to wear a dress, just order whatever you want."
"Ah, what gift do you want to give?"
"I'll prepare it, you don't have to worry about it."
In this way, it seems that it is a gathering of young people, and Xia Rou knows it well.
If invited to this kind of private gathering, it seems that Cao Yang and Wang Man have some contacts. Xia Rou couldn't help but jump for joy.
"You like that Wang Man so much?" Cao Xing wondered seeing her shining eyes.
"Where is my goddess!" Xia Rou said happily. .
"It's a bit too arrogant." Cao Xing doesn't like Wang Man's type.
"He has the capital to be proud." Xia Rou argued.
She really felt that, like Wang Man, she was indeed entitled to be proud.
After the meal, Xia Rou was left by Cao Xiong to chat with him.
"Do you like Wang Man so much?" Cao Xiong was also a little strange.
"Yeah." Xia Rou nodded.
Seeing that Cao Yang was not there, he had the guts to ask Cao Xiong furtively, "Uncle, can elder brother marry Wang Man back and be my sister-in-law?"
Cao Xiong laughed. Q: "How did you come up with the idea of putting the two of them together?"
"I've seen it. Among the daughters in the provincial capital, Wang Man is the best. If the elder brother wants to marry a wife, she must be her." Xia Rou said vowedly.
It almost went to Cao Xiong's heart.
Changing the topic, I asked her about school affairs, and was concerned about her final grades.
At the end, he said to her: "You are serious, you have worked hard, as long as you don't regret it. You don't have to worry too much about gains and losses. With Uncle here, I won't embarrass you in the future."
It was a promise to her for a future.
Xia Rou felt warm in her heart.
"Uncle." She looked at him, "I understand."
Cao Xiong could tell that she really understood. In more than two years, she has grown from a gloomy little girl to a sweet, cheerful, transparent big girl.
Cao Xiong suddenly felt sour.
He thought, when she was older, he would buy her some property so that she would not have to worry about food and clothing. Take a closer look, find a suitable man for her, and arrange for her to marry.
As long as he lives, let her be safe.
Even if he left, Cao Yang and the others could take care of her.
So, Cheng Wan can rest assured.
Wang Man's birthday was at the end of January, and counting, he was born in the twelfth lunar month.
The school was already on vacation, and Xia Rou took a beauty sleep for several days, feeling refreshed.
On that day, we left after having dinner. Because it is just a party for young people, there is no need to wear a dress, and you can dress casually.
Although her actual age was already twenty-five in her previous life, Xia Rou braided two braids for herself because she was only seventeen now. After braiding, pull it loosely, and then use the comb to comb it backwards to make it fluffy.
This way of braiding and combing hair will not be introduced from neighboring countries to China until several years later, but it is a bit ahead of its time when it is done now, which makes people's eyes shine.
There is also a crystal hairpin on both sides of the ear, Blingbling's. Crystals are cheap and not considered jewelry. It would look cheap at a formal banquet, but it suits Xia Rou's age.
Once downstairs, Cao Yang raised his eyebrows.
Xiao Yang drove the car.
On the way, Cao Yang took out two gift boxes and gave one to her: "A gift."
"What is it?" Xia Rou asked curiously.
"Your is perfume, mine is pen." Cao Yang said.
Xia Rou: "..."
"What's wrong?" Cao Yang raised his eyebrows.
"What the hell is a pen?" Xia Rou asked in pain.
Future sister-in-law's birthday, big brother, can you go for a snack when choosing a gift
Cao Yang replied calmly: "She works in a government department, and she writes a lot by hand, so it's just right to give her a pen. She writes very well. But you... find time to practice handwriting during your vacation, and I'll buy you one later."
wait wait wait! How did it get involved in her words!
Her handwriting is not ugly even in the class. However, the four brothers of the Cao family were beaten and disciplined by their parents since they were young, and they also hired famous teachers. Each of them wrote beautiful brush calligraphy, especially pen calligraphy. In comparison, her handwriting is unreadable...
no no! The topic is far away!
"Who wants a pen from her boyfriend for her birthday? It should be jewelry, jewelry!" Xia Roudan said in pain.
"I'm not her boyfriend." Cao Yang glanced at her.
"Aren't you dating?"
"Who said that?"
"... Guess. But," Xia Judao said, "Uncle is also very fond of Sister Wang Man."
"Brother! Sister Wang Man is the best in the circle. I can't fault her. If you marry a wife, you must marry her." Xia Rou said with a serious face, "You must never marry someone like Sun Miaolan, I It's unbearable."
Ever since Wang Man came to the provincial capital, Sun Miaolan, who used to call herself "the number one lady in the province", has always had a different nose and face.
"You're quite picky. Will I marry you, or you?" Cao Yang laughed.
"Are you really not dating Wang Man?" Xia Rou asked.
According to her calculations, in her third year of high school, Cao Yang and Wang Man should start dating anyway. Cao Yang is not a casual person, nor is he the kind of boy who falls in love regardless of east, west, south, north. He will bring Wang Man to meet Cao Xiong formally, which must be done after a certain period of time and to a certain extent.
And this life is really different from the previous life. For example, everyone's attitude towards her, or... the shocking scar on Cao Yang's body.
So the first semester of the third year of high school was over, and she couldn't help becoming anxious before she heard anything about Cao Yang and Wang Man. I'm afraid that because of her, something will happen to Cao Yang and Wang Man.
In this life, she made up her mind not to be greedy or demanding, and to leave the Cao family when it was time to leave.
In this way, Cao Yang will no longer be dragged down by her. He will marry the best woman and live the best life.
In this way, she will not live in vain.
"It's not a relationship, it's just two dinners." Cao Yang took two puffs of cigarettes and said casually.
"It's really useless." Xia Rou said with disgust, "I've eaten twice, and I haven't become a boyfriend yet! If the fourth brother, raw rice can be cooked!"
Cao Yang: "..."
"What are you talking about!" He turned dark and pinched her cheek.
"It hurts, hurts, hurts!!"
Seeing that Xia Rou's tears were coming out, Cao Yang hummed, and then let go of his hand, saying: "Don't fool around with Cao An. He is the devil king of our family, how can he teach you well?"
Seeing Xia Rou rubbing her cheeks and daring to be angry but not speaking, he felt it was funny in his heart, but his face was still tense and scolded her: "Don't learn from him."
Seeing her depressed, Cao Yang paused, and then explained to her: "It doesn't matter if you play casually at ordinary times. You can't be casual like Wang Man. Xiao Rou, do you understand the difference?"
Xia Rou was silent for a moment, then nodded.
Seeing her well-behaved, Cao Yang's eyebrows softened. He pinched her chin, and gently stroked the red spot with his thumb just now.
"You too," he said.
"You are a girl from our family..." Cao Yang's voice was like a cello, deep and gentle. "So remember, no one can treat you casually."
The touch of fingertips is soft and smooth.
In the dimness, it seemed that the girl's eyes were filled with water.
But she immediately burst into a smile, and said "Hmm!" heavily.
Xiao Yang glanced in the rearview mirror, and then looked away...
Concentrate on driving.
