Shen Qing heard that Shen Lianyi signed up to study, and he agreed very much. In his opinion, it was the best that his sister was not knocked down by the divorce, and the other things were not important at all.
But after returning home, Shen Lianyi became nervous. Thinking of starting a new life and studying like everyone else, she just felt like she didn't know what to do, so she walked around in circles in the room.
Tang Jiao held her chin and watched her mother wandering around the room for more than a dozen times. Finally she laughed and said softly: "Mom, you are just going to study, there is no need to look like this."
Although she said this, Shen Lianyi didn't think so. She said righteously: "This is a big thing."
And - I thought, something so serious should not be taken lightly.
"I have to say goodbye."
Tang Jiao burst into laughter and wondered whether she should skip class tomorrow and accompany her mother to study, but then she thought again and felt that this didn't seem very good.
Her mother always had to take the first step on her own.
Thinking about it this way, I feel relieved.
Tang Jiao was relieved, but Shen Lianyi was still nervous.
As a result, Shen Lianyi still looked sad the next morning.
Tang Jiao was changing her shoes and getting ready to go to school. When she saw Shen Lianyi, she burst out laughing and said, "Mom, are you still nervous? I'll pick you up in Jining after school!"
She said softly: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much."
Shen Lianyi sighed and held on: "What am I worried about? You are talking nonsense. You don't need to pick me up. I can do it by myself. It makes no sense that a child as young as Yang Xiuyan can be alone, but I need someone to accompany me." On."
Tang Jiao laughed and lamented that Yang Xiuyan had a great influence on her mother.
"Let's go, let's go to school quickly. Don't delay here."
Tang Jiao had no choice but to nod and go out. She rested for a week and felt a little unfamiliar when she returned to school again.
However, the students remained enthusiastic.
Li Yunchao came to Tang Jiao and asked with concern. Tang Jiao whispered a few words in her ear, and Li Yunchao understood immediately.
Although they all vaguely guessed the reason why Tang Jiao asked for leave, they were still a little shy when they heard her say it so bluntly. After all, she is a young girl! Li Yunchao relaxed and immediately changed the topic and brought up another matter.
"Tang Jiao, do you know? Who is that, Tang Heng? She went to Xiawa Middle School." She betrayed her parents, "I heard what my mother said, saying it was your father... ahem , he contacted Tang Heng, who is going to be a transfer student and will be admitted to university next year."
After all, Tang Zhiyong has read a book and has some knowledge, so it's not surprising that some friends can use it.
Tang Jiao didn't pay much attention to them these days, but she didn't know how good they were. She was very angry when she first came back and wished she could kill them and cut them into pieces. But as time went by, she found that it was actually quite boring. Who were these people
Does she deserve to fight with these rubbish
Naturally, if these people provoke her, she will not let them go.
But on weekdays, she didn't bother to talk to them. On good days, she entangled with them, which simply lowered her status.
Having said that, Tang Jiao was still willing to listen to the gossip, but there was nothing she could do about it, it was just a girl's nature!
"But I remember that Xiawa Middle School is a coeducational school, and the school spirit is not very good. It seems that as long as you have money, you can go to school, right?" It was so long ago that her memory was unclear.
Li Yunchao nodded and said, indeed, Xiaya Middle School is the worst middle school. There are no decent teachers, and the school spirit is not very good.
But for a person like Tang Heng, it would be nice to have a place to study, so he probably wouldn't ask for so much.
"But I think Tang Heng will be ruined if he goes to that school." Li Yunchao rarely said such words, which was quite surprising.
Li Yunchao didn't hide anything, and said: "I heard that many students in that school are not serious students, they are the kind of little girls, and Tang Heng has a pretentious and pretentious character. It would be better if she was more down-to-earth. , otherwise, it would be strange if she didn’t get beaten up because of her fake fairy character in our girls’ middle school! There are often bullying of students in their school, and oh, sir, they don’t care about it.”
Tang Jiao nodded slightly. She didn't know this.
But it's not easy for Li Yunchao to know this. She usually doesn't get involved in such messy things.
Probably seeing Tang Jiao's confusion, she smiled and said, "Xu Jing told me."
Tang Jiao let out a sigh and looked at Xu Jing's position. Speaking of which, she didn't see Xu Jing today!
She asked: "Didn't she come today?"
Li Yunchao looked a little worried, but soon she whispered: "Xu Jing has been absent from school for three days. I don't know if something happened at home. I'm thinking of going to their house after school today to see. Do you want to come with me? ?”
Tang Jiao looked embarrassed. She bluntly said that today was her mother's first day to go to night school. She was very worried and wanted to go there early to see. See, Li Yunchao was really surprised when she said this. It's actually quite shocking that Aunt Shen still wants to study at such an old age.
"That's okay, I'll just go by myself."
She patted Tang Jiao's shoulder thoughtfully and promised to call Tang Jiao that night.
Seeing her smiling face, Tang Jiao thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'll go with you. After all, my mother can't get out of school right away, and I'll have to wait for a long time. You alone, I worried."
None of them had ever been to Xu's house, and they didn't know what Xu Jing's house was like. She was always worried about Li Yunchao going there alone.
Li Yunchao, a little girl, was always a little worried, but she still said sensibly: "I'm fine. You can stay with your mother."
Tang Jiao shook her head and smiled, resolutely: "No, I don't trust you."
After saying this, Li Yunchao felt warm in her heart. She bit her lip and whispered, "I like Tang Jiao the most."
Tang Jiao burst out laughing, and she said awkwardly: "But it's useless if you like me, I can't marry you either."
Li Yunchao was stunned, and then laughed even harder.
Everyone around also started laughing, and everyone was wondering why they didn't find Tang Jiao so funny!
Although the two of them had never been to Xu's house, they knew the address of Xu's house, so they called a rickshaw and went straight there.
Xu Jing's family lives near the city hall, just across the small western-style buildings behind the alley.
Tang Jiao was the first to ring the doorbell. A woman came out to answer the door and asked with some confusion: "Who are you looking for?"
Tang Jiao said sharply: "Excuse me, is Xu Jing at home? We are her classmates. She hasn't come to school these days, so we don't worry about her."
After saying this, the mother-in-law immediately said: "You two ladies, please come in quickly. I'll call my lady."
After inviting the two of them to the living room, she went up to the second floor. Suddenly there was a scream from upstairs. Li Yunchao was startled and immediately held Tang Jiao's arm.
Tang Jiao glanced upstairs, and soon saw Xu Jing coming downstairs with a pale face. For some reason, after not seeing her for only a few days, Xu Jing had obviously gone through a lot of changes, and even her meticulous braids were loose. .
She raised the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, but the smile was more like a forced smile.
The two girls stood up, and Tang Jiao asked softly: "Are you okay? Let's come over and see you."
Xu Jing shook her head and asked the two of them to sit down.
She was a little tired: "Thank you for caring about me."
The mother-in-law served the tea, and Xu Jing raised her head: "Aunt Wang, please go upstairs and help me keep an eye on my mother, otherwise I won't worry."
Mrs. Wang sighed and hurried upstairs.
"You guys are here just in time. Could you please help me take some leave? Something happened to my mother, my mother. I have to take care of her at home."
She smiled weakly, showing that she was extremely tired these past few days.
Tang Jiao nodded and said softly: "You should also take care of yourself. We were always worried because you didn't go to school these days. Now that we know you are fine, we are relieved."
Although she didn't know what happened to the Xu family, Tang Jiao didn't ask much about other people's privacy. The scream of Xu Jing's mother seemed quite scary.
Xu Jing did not hide anything from the two of them and said, "Thank you for caring about me."
She held their hands and said softly: "I have nothing to do, but I can't sit with you for a long time. My mother's illness is not good, so I'm worried. I have to watch her."
Tang Jiao understood and nodded immediately: "Then let's leave first. We can't help much, but if you need anything, just call me or Li Yunchao."
Xu Jing smiled and said, "Okay. Actually, my mother doesn't have anything to do with her. She was just frightened. Just raise her and she'll be fine."
Sighing, she explained softly: "There was something wrong with my father's factory, and he owed a lot of money. Our family didn't have the money to pay back, so they scared my mother..." Xu Jing said roughly, and then said: " Hey, maybe next time you see me, I won't live in this house anymore. I just hope my dad can find a buyer soon. If our factory can sell it, maybe... Hey, why am I telling you this. "
Although she looked relaxed, the sadness in her tone could be heard.
Li Yunchao said seriously: "Then take good care of yourself."
Xu Jing nodded and sent the two people out of the door.
The two little girls walked out of the door, looking at each other in silence, not knowing what to say.
Li Yunchao held Tang Jiao's arm and said softly: "Fortunately, I have you to accompany me. Otherwise, I don't know what to do."
She was not very sociable, and her nose felt sore when she saw this situation, and she didn't know what to do.
Tang Jiao pondered for a moment and asked, "What do Xu Jing's family do?"
Speaking of this, Li Yunchao really didn't know anything about it.
The two girls couldn't do anything. Now that they had come here, Tang Jiao sent Li Yunchao to the gate of the city hall, and Li Yunchao went home with her mother. Tang Jiao was planning to take a rickshaw to Jining Night School to wait for Shen Lianyi to finish school.
It feels so strange to pick up my mother from school.
Walking to the door of the city hall, Tang Jiao waved: "Let's go."
Li Yunchao nodded with a smile: "You too, be careful on the road, see you tomorrow."
Tang Jiao: "See you tomorrow."
Seeing Li Yunchao walking towards the city hall, Tang Jiao was about to turn around and leave when she saw Tang Zhiyong hurriedly getting off the rickshaw.
The father and daughter have not seen each other for a long time, more than two months. They saw each other in a daze, but there was no sense of intimacy.
Tang Jiao gave Tang Zhiyong a cold look, nodded as a greeting, and saw that she was about to leave.
Tang Zhiyong immediately said: "Hey."
Tang Jiao turned around and smiled: "Is something wrong?"
It's really like a stranger.
Tang Zhiyong has a sentimental character, so when his daughter is around, he naturally looks down on her and thinks she is very bad; but when she is not around, he feels an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He fell silent, pursed his lips, and said, "Are you okay? You've grown taller!"
Tang Jiao: "I'm fine."
Looking Tang Zhiyong up and down, it seems that there is someone else who is really bad. He is not as decent as before, but looks a bit embarrassed. The weather is extremely hot this year, and there is no wind at this time. He was sweating profusely and his shirt was wrinkled.
Tang Jiao was very cold, and Tang Zhiyong didn't know what to say, but soon he took out his pocket, rummaged around and found twenty yuan.
Tang Jiao just watched Tang Zhiyong turn over and over, as if these twenty yuan were all the money he had.
He handed it to Tang Jiao with some seriousness: "Keep these...your mother, don't tell your mother, keep it for yourself and buy some snacks."
Tang Jiao looked down at the twenty yuan, then looked up at Tang Zhiyong.
Tang Zhiyong was very serious: "Hurry up and take it!"
