After the parent meeting, Cao Yang had a good communication with Xia Rou.
"What do you want to learn in the future?"
"Chinese."
"... very good. Have you decided to volunteer?"
Xia Rou made a list for Cao Yang, which included the schools she wanted to take.
In this life, because I went to a good school like Nanhua, although I was always in the middle and lower reaches of my class, my grades were actually much better than in my previous life. Therefore, the school she chose was much better than in her previous life.
For this small progress, she felt...in fact, a little happy.
Cao Yang looked at the list, folded it and put it away without saying anything.
Just tell her: "Don't think about anything now, just review it carefully."
"Yeah." Xia Rou nodded.
The most important thing is to face the college entrance examination first.
During the intense review, the time passed quickly.
For two days from June 7th to 8th, there was a tense atmosphere in the streets.
To the surprise of the Cao family, Xia Rou was not very nervous. Everyone thought that she too would be too nervous to eat breakfast. As a result, the child was calm and in good condition.
Cao Xiong glanced at her appreciatively, and encouraged, "Take the exam well."
"Yeah!" Xia Rou pursed her lips and smiled.
She was really not nervous at all.
The college entrance examination, she has already experienced it once.
And in this life, she understands even more that the college entrance examination is just to give her a degree. The Cao family gave her a future.
People have a way out, they have to rely on, and courage is enough.
Her hard work and hard work are nothing but her inner appeal for self-proof.
On the first day, Cao Yang and Cao An sent her to pick her up.
The next day, Cao Yang had a fact that he couldn't get away from him, so Cao An went to see her off alone. But Cao Yang and Cao An went to pick her up in the afternoon.
After taking the exam for two days, Xia Rou was extremely tired even though her mentality was very stable.
When I got home, I threw myself on the bed.
Cao Yang came to knock on the door, but she didn't open it, she could only shout weakly: "The door is not locked..."
Cao Yang opened the door by himself and came in to see that the college entrance examination candidate was lying on the bed like a dead dog, spread out in a big font.
"Get up." He kicked the foot of her bed. "time to eat."
"Why so early?"
"If you don't call you earlier, you won't go down until dinner time."
Cao Yang actually wanted to chat with her about volunteering. Seeing her virtue, he thought it would be better to let her rest for two days, so he didn't say anything, just asked her to eat.
Xia Rou: "I'm dead, just insert the chopsticks into the rice for me."
Cao Yang: "..."
He reached out to grab her waist and picked it up for her.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was particularly relaxed, and Xia Rou ate a lot today.
"It takes too much brainpower," she complained.
"Yes." Cao An looked at her with pity, "There were not many brain cells in the first place, but now they are all exhausted."
Xia Rou made a gesture to poke him with chopsticks, and everyone at the table laughed.
Ask her what she wants to do after the exam. Xia Rou's eyes are bright: "There are so many things!"
"I'm going to buy clothes! Perm my hair! Do my nails! I've made an appointment with my classmates to go shopping!"
Cao Xiong/Cao Yang/Cao An: "..."
Hey, it's a girl after all! men thought.
"I want to dye it a color." Xia Rou stroked her ponytail and asked Cao An, "Fourth brother, what color do you say looks good?"
Before Cao An could answer, Cao Yang vetoed it: "Dye whatever, it's fine like this."
Cao An felt that his elder brother was too domineering. Just as he was about to refute, Xia Rou said weakly: "Then... can I perm it? Just perm the ends of my hair?"
Cao An: "..." rolled his eyes angrily.
What a spineless girl!
He had already discovered that this girl was sharp-tongued when arguing with him, but she was very obedient when she was in front of his elder brother. When his elder brother said something, she listened.
Look, he has become more and more authoritarian, and now he even manages his hair!
Cao Yang likes Xia Rou to listen to him the most.
It's much easier to raise than the previous monkey brothers! What a pain!
"Okay." He said with a smile, "It should look good if you perm the ends of your hair, and you're a big girl."
After finishing speaking, he looked at his fourth brother and sneered: "What's wrong with your eyes? Do you have cramps? Do you want me to rub them for you?"
"...No need." A certain person slandered others for being spineless in his heart, and when it was his turn, he also gave up.
When I was a child, I was really afraid of my elder brother's belt pulling...
Cao Yang thought about letting Xia Rou rest for two days to catch her breath, and he would tell her again. It turned out that he couldn't catch her.
She didn't know what she was busy with, and she slept in for a few days, and she didn't get up until Cao Yang went out. When Cao Yang came home, he found that she hadn't come back yet!
I asked Cao An and said that I have been out shopping with my classmates every day these days.
After finally graduating from Nanhua, I no longer have to wear school uniforms every day. This group of girls whose families are not short of money started the shopping mode.
Cao Yang: "..."
Well, let her relax for a few more days. Anyway, the results haven't come down yet.
In mid-June, Cao Yang's cell phone suddenly received a text message.
Of the two cards he gave to Xiarou back then, the savings card was linked to his card. For large expenditures, he will receive a text message notification.
He looked at the two sums of money, checked the details on the Internet, and found that the recipients were two different decoration and building materials companies.
When I saw Xia Rou at the dinner table, I asked casually.
Xia Rou was surprised for a moment, and then replied naturally: "I went to the apartment to take a look, some places are dilapidated, I will ask someone to remake it, mainly the wallpaper and the floor."
Cao Xiong paused holding the chopsticks, and said: "It's time to reinstall it, it's been a long time..."
In that apartment, Cheng Wan accompanied him for eight years...
The atmosphere suddenly became a little low...
It was also an accident that Cao Yang did not expect Xia Rou to redecorate that house. Blame her: "Just tell me about it, what are you running around on your own?"
Xia Rou glanced at Cao Xiong's drooping eyebrows, pretending to be playful, and made a pig's nose for Cao Yang: "Let you make it, you should give me a blue wallpaper again!"
Cao Yang knew that she was deliberately adjusting the atmosphere, but he still liked her delicate and cute appearance. But what she said really surprised and puzzled him.
"Is there something wrong with the blue wallpaper?" he asked confused.
Xia Rou: "..."
so powerless...
Don't tell him, let him be confused! She groaned inwardly.
Changed the subject: "How are you and Wang Man...?"
As soon as this topic came up, both Cao Xiong and Cao An looked at Cao Yang.
"Brother, are you dating Wang Man?" Cao An was speechless, "She's a bit difficult to deal with."
"What nonsense!" Cao Xiong glared at the fourth son, making Cao An shrink back in fright. He also turned his head and asked concerned: "Is there any progress?"
Girl movie!
Cao Yang gritted his teeth and answered his father first: "No, that's it. She will be transferred back to the provincial capital in July. It would be nice to see her once a month."
Then he asked Xia Rou: "Little clever ghost, where did you hear that?"
Xia Rou said: "Miao Ke from our class asked me quietly. Asked if you were dating Wang Man, and I said I didn't know. Miao Ke's father is Director Miao of the Provincial Office."
The men raised their eyebrows when they heard this.
This small gesture of the man from the Cao family raising his eyebrows is really hereditary.
"It's really a lot." Cao Yang sneered.
"There are many people watching coldly." Cao Xiong said slowly, "Be careful."
Cao Yang nodded.
This is why both he and Wang Man are cautious, although they both have the intention to explore.
He and she are not ordinary young men and women, they can fall in love at will, for a few months to half a year, they are sweet and noisy, and then they break up at will.
As soon as the two of them approached, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at them. Secretly speculating about the changes in the relationship between the Cao family and the Wang family.
Wang Man has been in the county, which caused a lot of inconvenience for the two of them to meet and date. In the past few months of contact with each other, in fact, it is only guaranteed to meet once a month.
So nothing to be cautious about.
Cao Yang didn't take it to heart.
On the contrary, it was Xiarou's shy way when he talked about the blue wallpaper that day, which made him always remember it in his heart. One day, after discussing official business with the leader, I suddenly remembered that the leader's family has a daughter who is in middle school.
He asked, "Is your daughter in high school now?"
"The first year of high school."
Cao Yang casually chatted with the leader about high school. He held a parent meeting for Xia Rou for three years, and he knew everything about high school. On the contrary, the leader repeatedly asked a lot of questions such as the placement test for the beginning of the semester—it happened that the leader's daughter was also going to Nanhua.
At the end, Cao Yang asked casually: "How is your daughter's room decorated? What color wallpaper is pasted?"
The leader replied as a matter of course: "Pink."
Cao Yang was silent for a while, suddenly realized.
Smelly girl, I don't like to say it early.
He had to live for three years before letting him know!
Cao Yang gritted his teeth, thinking while walking. Before I knew it, I stopped...
For the first time, he stood in Xia Rou's position and thought differently.
If it were him, he would go to a strange place at a young age, and depend on others... No matter how unsatisfactory those things are... I'm afraid he would...
Yes, if it were him, he wouldn't say anything!
Girls should use pink, in fact, it is not unexpected.
Take a walk, you should think of it.
Or even if you don't use pink, other colors, there are many options...
But he chose blue at random—a typical masculine color.
why
Cao Yang couldn't deny it, because at that time, "Xia Rou" was insignificant to him.
He doesn't need to care whether she likes it or not, what they give her is all grace.
If you like it, you have to accept it, and if you don't like it, you have to accept it.
Can't help her.
Sitting in the car, Cao Yang didn't immediately put into gear and started, but silently smoked a cigarette.
Thinking of how Xia Rou pretended to be playful to adjust the atmosphere that day, Cao Yang's heart suddenly felt sour and uncomfortable.
He consciously regards her as his own family and does not allow outsiders to wrong her.
But he never thought that maybe... the person who wronged her was actually him.
And she, never... Never disobeyed him.
So obedient, so well-behaved.
so... submissive...
Just then, the phone rang.
Wang Man called: "I will be back this weekend after I rest."
After she finished speaking, she paused, waiting for his invitation to meet.
