Mother Su was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted, smiled kindly and nodded:
"Yes, although Qiao'er has a hot temper, she actually has a good heart and is very loyal to others."
"Come out and eat soon, the food won't taste good if it gets cold."
With that, Mother Su turned and left the bedroom.
Su Qiao proudly raised his phone towards Jiang Yihan and whispered:
"See, I told you my mom wouldn't say anything even if she found out we were playing games, right?"
Mother Su, who had already walked into the living room, turned her head and said, "Don't think I didn't hear you."
"I don't care if you play games, but you can't slack off in your studies. The college entrance exam is coming up in two months, so don't fall behind."
"Mom, I know. Ah Han and I have already discussed it. We will both get into a top university."
Mother Su comforted them while serving them food:
“It would be best if you could get into a top university, but getting into a lesser one is also fine.
Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best.”
Jiang Yihan was stunned.
His mother always said: You must get into the best university, and with the best grades.
If you don’t get the best grades and go to the best university, you’re just a useless waste and will never achieve anything in the future.
She even once said that if she didn't get into the best university with the best grades, she would not acknowledge him as her son.
But now, he heard completely different words from the same mother.
His eyes slowly swept across the small living room, which was not even as big as his storage room.
The furniture was simple and old, even the table had some paint peeling off.
But ever since he stepped into this small house, he felt something... something called warmth.
Although they are poor, live in such a shabby little house, and eat the most ordinary meals, their lives are not hopeless, and are even full of hope everywhere.
And my own life...
He suddenly realized that before he met her, he actually didn't even have any ideals.
He didn't even know why he was alive.
What is the purpose of living
Su Qiao smiled and nudged the dazed child, "Mom, with our grades, we won't be able to get into the worse universities."
Jiang Yihan reacted and said quickly: "Yes, we will definitely be admitted to the best university."
In the past, it was to not disappoint his mother, to make his life easier, to avoid being beaten, and to avoid being locked in the basement. Now...
Jiang Yihan glanced at the smiling girl beside him.
Now, in order to be with her, he also has to work hard to get into the best university.
Because based on her grades, she will definitely get into the best university.
Mother Su was so happy that the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes deepened. She couldn't help but knock her daughter on the head with chopsticks: "Don't be proud!"
"You must remember that a proud army will be defeated. This is what your father used to say all the time."
"I understand. I will never be proud."
The ability is there, and as long as you are not proud of it, it is still an achievement.
However, Su Qiao wisely did not refute.
Mother Su smiled and put a piece of fish into the bowl of the obedient boy opposite her:
"Xiao Han, come and eat fish. I heard that eating more fish can nourish the brain. You work so hard every day, you must eat more and eat better."
Jiang Yihan quickly thanked her respectfully: "Thank you, Auntie."
"You're welcome, no thanks. Auntie should thank you."
The more Mother Su looked at the child, the more she felt that he was too honest, which was totally inconsistent with his appearance.
