"Then big brother... with Wang Man, is it really impossible?" Xia Rou still held a little bit of hope.
"It's definitely not going to happen. Now the outside world knows that Huo is chasing Wang Man."
"Brother Yaogang?" Xia Rou's eyes widened, "He, how could he..." How could he poach Cao Yang's corner!
"You stupid!" Cao An sneered, "What does Lao Huo have to do with my brother? He really wants to wear a pair of pants. If he wants to pursue Wang Man publicly, it must be my brother's statement."
I see, that... it seems...
"It's not working at all?" She lowered her eyes.
Cao An replied decisively: "Definitely."
Xia Rou can only comfort herself, she has tried her best. Although, things are out of her control like a wild horse...
However, her ability is limited, and being able to persuade Cao An to voluntarily submit to Cao Xiong is already a windfall. There was really nothing she could do about anything else.
Of course, no one in the entire Cao family expected her to have any influence on these matters. In their view, it is enough for her to study hard, stay healthy, and be safe.
Soon, the admission notice of the university came down.
Xia Rou was admitted to the Provincial University.
In her previous life, this was something she never dared to think about. For Xia Rou in her previous life, this school was a place only for top students, and a scumbag like her could only look up to and envy her.
Unexpectedly, in this life, she would also be able to enter the provincial university, which made her... extraordinarily sad.
"What's the matter? Are you unhappy after passing the exam?" At the dinner table, Cao Yang asked strangely.
So Cao Xiong and Cao An all looked over.
Xia Rou glanced at Cao Yang resentfully. How could a person like him who was smart since he was a child and was outstanding in everything he could understand her worry!
"What happened?" Cao Yang insisted on finding out.
Xia Rou couldn't be forced, so she could only say it in shame: "I'm afraid... I went to school and found that I was the only scumbag among a group of top students..." That would really start four years of hell mode!
"Pfft!" Cao An spat out all the tea!
Cao Yang's face twitched uncontrollably.
"Study hard, don't fail the course, just get the diploma." Cao Xiong smiled.
He doesn't really have any expectations for Xia Rou, as long as he can get a decent degree, for a girl, he can find a good man for her to marry in the future, that's fine. He thought that even if he was gone in the future and she had an affair with her sons, they would not ignore her.
In this way, he did not disappoint Cheng Wan's entrustment.
In Xiarou's sorrow, the university started.
On the day of the report, Cao Yang and Cao An went to see her off together, both of them had serious expressions. Xia Rou thought something was wrong, but later realized that these two people... were actually nervous!
She can't laugh or cry. "I'm the one going to live on campus, not you guys. Why are you so nervous?"
Cao Yang glanced at her from the rearview mirror, and gave a soft "hum".
Obviously, it is an hour's drive from school to home. According to his idea, the car will be picked up and dropped off every day, and he can go to school. It was Xia Rou who insisted on living on campus.
Cao Yang was also afraid that if she didn't live in school, she would have less contact with her classmates and not be able to make friends, so she allowed her.
But the boss in my heart is not happy.
"If we lived on campus, who would be nervous!" Cao An turned his head and said, "Isn't it because it's you that makes you nervous?"
"Have a good relationship with your classmates. You don't have to worry too much about small things, but you can't let others bully you. If there is such an annoying thing in the dormitory, I will talk about it when I go home, and I will change the dormitory for you directly! These things are easy to handle , you don't get angry and don't talk, you know?"
Xia Rou raised her forehead: "Fourth brother... I haven't even touched the door of the dormitory yet..." Why did you already start to assume that I would be bullied
"Cao An is right." Cao Yang said while driving the car, "You are too soft-tempered and never get angry with others. It's fine at home, but you can't be like this outside. You have to be hard when you need to be hard, and you have to be hard when you need to choke. Choke back. Girls generally don’t do anything anyway. Don’t hold back what’s going on, talk about it when you get home, you know? Remember, in the provincial capital, you can’t be bullied even if you don’t walk sideways, you know? ?”
"Yes! Listen to the elder brother!" Cao An echoed in a doggy manner.
These... are all... what bear parents...
Xia Rou has been unable to complain.
"I'm going to school...not to fight for territory..." She said weakly, "I'm just going to school."
When I arrived at the school, it was full of people.
Cao An accompanied Xia Rou to line up everywhere to go through the formalities and get the card. Cao Yang disappeared as soon as he arrived at the school.
"Where's big brother?" Xia Rou asked strangely.
"He went looking for someone," Cao An said.
Xia Rou thought that Cao Yang had acquaintances, so she didn't think much about it.
Every year when freshmen report, the senior boys actively wait at the gate. Helping the elementary school girl with luggage, helping the elementary school girl guide the way, helping the elementary school girl with the formalities... These things are understood by everyone.
As soon as Xia Rou appeared, the eyes of the seniors lit up. It's a pity that this beautiful elementary school girl is accompanied by a handsome adult man, no matter in dress or manner, he can beat the student party bumpkins by a few blocks. Everyone stopped watching.
Occasionally, someone who was brave enough to go up to strike up a conversation with these two people, for some reason, was looked at by the handsome guy in fashionable clothes with a smile, inexplicably tightened his ass, turned around and walked away wisely.
Just after completing the formalities, Cao Yang led a middle-aged man with a kind smile over his face.
"Xiao Rou, come here." Cao Yang waved to her.
Xia Rou hurried over.
"This is Director Liu." Cao Yang said.
"Hello Director Liu." Xia Rou called out politely.
"Xia Rou, okay." Director Liu smiled kindly.
Cao Yang also smiled cordially: "Then I'm counting on you, don't worry about it."
"It's easy to say, easy to say." Director Liu smiled at him.
Xia Rou had a toothache.
But she also knew that this was the way people of Cao Yang's class behaved.
Director Liu kindly asked Xia Rou where the formalities were, and he reached out and recruited a boy who was in charge of the formalities. After whispering a few words, the boy soon finished Xia Rou's accommodation procedures, and handed the key directly to Xia Rou.
It turns out that the school dormitory building is divided into old and new buildings. The old building has six-person rooms and eight-person rooms without bathrooms. The new building is a quadruple room with separate bathroom. This time, both the new building and the old building have freshmen moving in, so it depends on luck which building they are assigned to.
What Xia Rou got was naturally the key to the new building.
After bidding farewell to Director Liu, Cao Yang dragged the suitcase, Cao An carried the quilt, and the two tall handsome men carried a white and beautiful girl between them and went to the dormitory building.
Today is the day of the report, and the parents are allowed to go upstairs, but the dormitory auntie didn't stop them, but she couldn't help but take a second look.
They went through the formalities faster than others, and when they arrived at the dormitory, there was no one else in the room. The two looked around the dormitory. Four-person dormitory, four beds, all upper bunks. There is a small wardrobe, bookshelf and desk under the bed, all in one.
Cao An couldn't help complaining: "It's really crowded!" It's not as big as the bathroom at home!
"Or, let's live with my family. It's less than an hour's drive to school!" he said.
"You two poking here, it's no wonder if you don't squeeze together." Xia Ju said.
Two burly men of about 1.8 meters stood in the middle of the dormitory, and the dormitory, which seemed relatively spacious, became crowded.
"Okay, you guys go back." Xia Rou started to shout.
Cao Yang ignored her. Bending down, she unzipped the quilt bag with a "swish". Before Xia Rou could react, she made the mattress for her.
Xia Rou couldn't even close her mouth.
Cao An on the other end also put the quilt cover on her with ease, and threw it into Cao Yang's hands. The two of them pulled the four corners of the quilt, shook and folded it, and the quilt was finished. Clean and neat!
Xia Rou was completely dumbfounded.
"Do you think we can't do anything?" Cao An sneered, "We were thrown into the barracks by my father when we were young. In the cold weather, wash your face and brush your teeth with cold water! It's much more difficult than your conditions. !"
In terms of self-care ability, whether it is Cao Yang or Cao An, they can beat Xia Rou by a thousand miles.
No matter when Xia Rou was with Cheng Wan or later fell to Cao's family, she was raised pampered. When Cheng Wan was here, because she had good cooking skills, she consciously cultivated Xia Rou's ability to cook. When she got to Cao's house, she couldn't even figure out how to cook.
"Enough!" Xia Rou snatched the quilt from the hands of the two of them, "Let's go!"
It's just unreasonable. Is there anything they can't do well? Are all outstanding people all-rounders? Is there anything you are not good at
Cao Yang was a little worried: "Can you do it alone?" He had never seen this girl doing housework, so he was a little worried.
They themselves were beaten by Cao Xiong since they were young, and they have suffered a lot, and have greatly tempered their minds and abilities. But for Xia Rou, not to mention Cao Xiong, even Cao Yang and the others, none of them felt that she should be whipped like this. The men in this family are actually machismo in their bones. They all thought, Xia Rou, it's good to be held in the palm of your hand like this, and raised delicately!
Xia Rou is a little weak.
She admitted that in her previous life, she was indeed raised so that her fingers would never touch the spring water. It was also because of this that she felt that she couldn't bear to live in a small dormitory with several people, so she listened to Cao Yang's words and continued to go to school.
So she left Cao's house later. Although she also hired an aunt to clean the house, it took a long time to adapt to an independent life.
During this period, I did not know how many tears of grievance were shed. I don't know how many times I lie in bed and miss Cao's family, and miss the life of my eldest brother who is taken care of by him meticulously.
But in this life, she doesn't want to be like this anymore, she doesn't want to be a person who is mediocre in every aspect, has nothing to be proud of, and can show off to others.
"Quick—go—" She covered her face in shame, "I'm not a giant baby!"
The two men had no choice but to leave sullenly.
That night, only Cao Xiong, Cao Yang and Cao An were eating in the restaurant of the Cao family.
It was extraordinarily quiet, inexplicably making people lose their appetite, as if something was missing.
Several men once again deeply felt the difference between raising girls and raising boys.
When you raise a boy, you are afraid that he will not exercise enough to take on the responsibilities of a man. Raise a girl, but you are worried all day long, for fear that she will be wronged and bullied.
When she grows up and insists on living in school, you still have to worry about whether she can eat or sleep well!
"I don't know if Xiaorou is used to eating at school?" Cao An sighed.
Cao Xiong was silent for a while, and said to Cao Yang: "I'll call her later and ask, if it's okay, I'd better go home every day."
"..." Cao Yang gritted his teeth, "I called before going downstairs, and I already ate in the cafeteria. I told me that the braised lion head in the school cafeteria is very delicious. I also said that I will go to the library with my classmates at night... It sounds like it's still delicious. Very happy...”
Cao Xiong: "..."
Cao Yang: "..."
Cao An: "..."
The dishes on the table are obviously rich, but they are inexplicably bleak.
