After the college entrance examination, life began to follow one's heart

Chapter 108 Ms. Ren’s Daughter’s Dream

"Drive slower!"

Ms. Ren quickly reminded.

"It's already very slow, the speed is only in his early forties."

"Then it's down to the early thirties!"

"Okay, it's down."

Xu Lin said casually: "Actually, those motorcyclists drive at over 100 kilometers per hour. I think they are quite cool. They disappear in the blink of an eye."

"My colleague's cousin's aunt's son drives a motorcycle, and his wife ran away."

“That’s too tragic!”

"Because it was broken!"

"That's even worse!"

Xu Lin gasped. If a man's thing were to break, what would happen? Not to mention his wife running away, he might even commit suicide.

Ms. Ren added: "And his family has two buildings to rent out. How pitiful!"

"It's really tragic!"

Xu Lin took a deep breath. His wife ran away again. The family still had two buildings to collect rent from, which meant they were not short of money. However, the symbol of manliness was gone. What was the point of having more money?
Ren Yan warned, "So don't drive too fast, and don't buy a motorcycle!"

"I'm just saying."

Xu Lin drove at a speed of over 30 kilometers per hour from the suburbs all the way back to the city.

"You're so naughty. I'm always worried!"

Ms. Ren continued, “Sometimes I wonder if you were a daughter, would you be more obedient?”

"Then I'll have sex change?"

"Screw you!"

Ms. Ren continued, "Actually, when you were little, I wanted to have another child. At that time, I wanted to have a daughter, so that I could have both a son and a daughter."

"Then why didn't you have one? Actually, I wanted a sister too."

"I often quarrel with your father, and I have lost my mind."

When talking about having a daughter, Ms. Ren felt a sense of regret. She really wanted a second child before, but it didn't happen later.

"Oh."

Xu Lin didn't say anything. Both of them had problems, not just one person's problem. They quarreled all the time, but in fact, neither of them made any principled mistakes. However, after quarreling too much, the relationship between the couple deteriorated and they divorced later.

"So I think we must be cautious when getting married."

"Ms. Ren, remember what you said. Don't push me to get married when I get older."

"It depends!"

More than half an hour later, Xu Lin drove past a shopping mall.

"Mom, let's go in and buy a box of mooncakes!"

"Why buy mooncakes? We don't eat mooncakes." Ms. Ren was surprised.

"For Yanyan's family. I went to Lei Haolong's house a few days ago and brought a box with me."

"Well, that's fine."

The two of them bought a box of mooncakes in the mall before going back.

When Xu Lin drove into the gate of the community, Yu Xinyan and her mother Lin Yajing came out together.

"Auntie, long time no see, you look beautiful again!"

Xu Lin was the first to greet Lin Yajing. Although they lived in the same community, the last time Xu Lin met Lin Yajing was during the college entrance examination. At that time, Lin Yajing sent Yu Xinyan to the examination room. Four months had passed in a blink of an eye.

"Xu Lin, your mouth is still as honeyed as before!"

Lin Yajing smiled.

At this time, Xu Lin originally wanted to give the mooncake to the other party, but seeing that the two of them were about to go out, it would be a bit impolite to give the mooncake at this time.

Let’s talk about it later.

Lin Yajing looked at Ren Yan and said, "Did Yan just arrive in Jiangzhou today?"

"I came back by high-speed train this afternoon."

As Ms. Ren was talking, she got out of the car, and the two women started chatting and laughing here.

Yu Xinyan also greeted Ms. Ren and said hello, "Auntie" in a friendly manner.

"Yan Yan is so good!"

Ms. Ren's eyes narrowed into crescents.

"Mom, I'm going back first."

Xu Lin said to Ms. Ren.

"Then go back. I'll talk to your aunt."

The two women hadn't seen each other for several months, so they had something to talk about when they met on the road.

Xu Lin said goodbye to Yu Xinyan, then drove to the downstairs and parked the car, then went upstairs and went home.

Ms. Ren didn't return home until more than twenty minutes later.

The first thing Ms. Ren said when she walked in was, "I haven't seen Yanyan for a few months, and she looks beautiful again!"

"No, isn't she always like this?"

"You see it often, of course not!"

Ms. Ren glared at Xu Lin, put her things in the entrance and took off her shoes.

"Can you and Yanyan succeed?"

Ms. Ren couldn't help but ask. In her opinion, the two families knew each other very well, and Yu Xinyan was a very good person with good personality, character, appearance, and so on. Where could she find such a good girl?
Xu Lin: “I don’t understand.”

"But they are all at Jiangdu University. I just asked them, and Yanyan is in a very powerful college at Jiangdu University. Her teacher is a nationally renowned top professor. She has a bright future, and her father is a high-ranking official."

Ms. Ren thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, I don't think you are worthy of her."

"You figured this out!"

"So, can you please work harder? Work hard in college, aiming to get a job at a big company right after graduation and make a million dollars a year before you're thirty?"

"When I start my own business, I will earn at least hundreds of millions a year. You only make a million a year, and you look down on your son!"

"Go to hell! Teasing me again!"

"Besides, I'm going to buy you a manor in Jiangdu. It's going to cost at least a few hundred million. How can a million a year be enough? You can't even afford a toilet!"

"Let's change the subject. Your mother is blushing just listening to me. Fortunately, there is no third person here."

Ren Yan said: "I don't even know if I can live in a villa in this lifetime!"

After a pause, she continued, "But if there is a villa, I want a big yard. Xu Lin, don't laugh at me. In fact, I want to raise some chickens in the yard and plant some flowers and plants... It would be best if you get married and have two or three children. Then I can take care of them..."

"Xu Lin, did you listen to me?"

"What did you just say?"

"..."

Ms. Ren took a deep breath. She was pretty much used to her son being unreliable.

Then she went to the room to put her things away.

She came out later and opened the refrigerator.

"What are these two bags?"

"Dried fish and bacon."

Ms. Ren took it out and looked at it. "It looks very appetizing. I like bacon the most. Xu Lin, you know your grandmother makes bacon a lot, but I haven't eaten it in many years."

Speaking of this, Ms. Ren sighed.

Xu Lin’s grandmother passed away a few years ago. She had no illness or disaster and was in her early eighties, so she died of old age.

Ren Yan is the youngest in the family, with two older brothers and two older sisters.

Xu Lin's grandfather is almost ninety years old.

"Xu Lin, let's go over there to visit grandpa during the New Year this year!"

Ren Yan said with a hint of sadness: "He said recently that he often saw you on TV and asked if you were on TV."

"Row."

My grandfather had a stroke shortly after my grandmother passed away, and he was in a wheelchair ever since. Later, he developed Alzheimer's disease. He had always liked the naughty Xu Lin. Xu Lin's grandfather's side was a scholarly family. For example, Ren Yan graduated from a key university. Xu Lin's uncles and aunts were naturally not bad either. They all graduated from college in that era. Not to mention his cousins. Their academic qualifications were better than each other. Two of his cousins and one of his cousins had already graduated with a doctorate.

Maybe because all the children in his family were well-behaved scholars, my grandfather was particularly fond of naughty children like Xu Lin.

Later, he suffered a stroke and Alzheimer's disease. When he watched TV, whenever he saw a young boy, he would think it was Xu Lin.

However, this is the case with the elderly. When they reach a certain age, not many people can truly die of old age. Most elderly people suffer from various illnesses until the end of their lives. This seems to be the rule of all things. Even those rich people cannot avoid the end of their lives in a painful way. Only a very few people can leave without disaster or illness.

Soon after Ms. Ren came back, she started cleaning.

Xu Lin didn't want to clean the house at first, after all, the house was already so clean. However, his mother asked him to clean it, so Xu Lin had no choice but to help.

She has obsessive-compulsive disorder and feels uncomfortable if she doesn't clean the house once she gets home.

Finally got it done before nightfall.

As night fell, my mother went to cook.

She has some cooking skills. Tonight, Ms. Ren cut up the remaining cured beef, five taels of cured pork, and four taels of cured fish.

Add other dishes, braised pork, mushroom chicken, and a serving of lettuce, and tonight's dinner will be quite sumptuous.

Xu Lin's appetite was greatly increased.

"This bacon is really delicious. It tastes great. Where did you buy it?"

Ms. Ren couldn't help but ask.

Xu Lin hadn't mentioned Ning Yuhan's existence yet, to avoid being nagged by Ms. Ren.

"My senior sister sent it to me by express delivery. She made it at home."

"What senior?"

Ms. Ren asked quickly.

"A senior with whom I have a good relationship."

"What's his personality like? What's his character like? And..."

Ms. Ren asked several questions directly. She was very cautious about her son finding a partner. She knew very well how good her son's appearance was. Such a boy, or girl, would never lack pursuit from the opposite sex. Precisely because of this, she had to be cautious, fearing that he would meet a bad person.

"Let's talk about it later. The food is getting cold."

"Oh."

Ms. Ren looked at her son and stopped talking. When children grow up, there will inevitably be a gap between them and their parents. They are no longer like when they were little and would ask "Mom" everything.

Xu Lin returned to his room at night.

Today is already the fifth, and because Xu Lin had planned to put it on the shelves on the evening of the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is tomorrow night, it is expected to be on the shelves around eight or nine o'clock.

Xu Lin looked to see what was going on.

He was not very concerned about the performance of the novel, so he just set a time for the chapters and updated them on time every day.

Xu Lin logged into the writer's backend and looked at his current performance.

Collection: 1473658?

More than 1.47 million!

The number of collections had already exceeded one million in the early morning of the 1st. Now, five days have passed and more than collections have been added. Overall, the speed has slowed down, and it is impossible to say that the number of collections is increasing without limit.

However, Xu Lin understood that this was due to the short video streaming.

In this era, traffic is the most magical thing.

On the Internet, many people who have not received much education can drive all kinds of luxury cars and live in all kinds of luxury houses because of the Internet, while countless people with the same level of education as them are still struggling in various factories, and people with better education are also doing all kinds of menial work that they can see the end of at a glance. Most ordinary people work hard all their lives, and this is the norm for all living beings.

The era of short videos has created many myths.

That's the magic of Internet traffic. Of course, this is a very small number.

Because most internet celebrities are actually very miserable, survivor bias does not have much reference value in reality. Reading and studying is the best solution for all ordinary people.

Xu Lin's current book is a player that has taken off in the era of traffic. Although this book is indeed of extremely high quality, it has indeed taken off further with the help of the east wind of short video traffic. As for how high it will fly in the future, it is hard to say.

“How many readers does this collection have?”

Xu Lin clicked on the follow-up reading, which was from the day before yesterday, and it seemed that the follow-up reading data was from the day when the number of collections exceeded 1.2 million.

Seven hundred thousand reads!
Xu Lin knew that this was not effective follow-up reading because a considerable part of it was free.

At this time, Xu Lin opened QQ and asked about Ranzhi's follow-up reading.

Ranzhi replied immediately: "The current real follow-up number is 362358! This was from the day before yesterday. Today's number hasn't been released yet, but it should be over . And Mr. Xu, your book has a huge number of follow-ups. The quality of the book itself is so good. Although a large number of readers are free readers, I think a large number of readers will convert to paying readers in the future, so this follow-up reading is not the end."

Ranzhi: "Your book is going to create a subscription miracle for our website! Groaning.jpg"

Ranzhi: "By the way, Mr. Xu!"

Xu Lin: “What?”

Ranzhi: "I have good news for you. At the end of the year, our website will be selecting great writers, and you will be among them. Your book has performed so well, it's the best of the year, even if it's listed on the entire Internet! Right now, the entire online literary community is paying attention to your book!"

Xu Lin: "Platinum?"

Ranzhi: "Platinum is a sure thing! Supreme God of the Year! Sunglasses.jpg"

Xu Lin, a writer who writes for fun, has never thought about becoming a great online writer.

However, if you give him a slap, Xu Lin will not be polite.

After all, he was only eighteen years old, at the age of prime youth, passionate writing, and high spirits.

Xu Lin took a look at the reputation on his panel. If he became a platinum god, he wondered if this reputation would change.

Also, if the reputation is changed, are there any rewards?

Xu Lin: "I want to put it on the shelves at 9 o'clock tomorrow night. How do I do it?"

Ranzhi: "Mr. Xu, wait for me!"

A few minutes later.

Ranzhi: "I have prepared the listing for you in the backend. You can update it at any time tomorrow. There will be a separate VIP volume at that time. I will notify you before noon tomorrow, and the listing activities will also be followed up as soon as possible!"

Xu Lin: “OK.”

Ranzhi: "Mr. Xu, how many words should be published after it is put on the shelves?"

Xu Lin: "Forty thousand is just a token of my appreciation!"

Ranzhi: "Looking forward to it! Grinning teeth.jpg"

Ranzhi: "By the way, Mr. Xu, the manuscript fee will be updated at 10:04 tomorrow morning. You can take a look then!"

Xu Lin replied with an emoticon indicating that the supermarket was OK.

The website's manuscript fees are refreshed at 6:10 am on the th of every month.

Xu Lin quit QQ.

Time: A little after 9pm.

Xu Lin started a game.

ten minutes later.

dong dong...

Ms. Ren knocked on the door.

"Xu Lin, are you asleep?"

"get ready."

"Don't stay up late, go to bed early, otherwise it's bad for your health."

Mom reminded.

"I'll go to bed at ten o'clock, you should get some rest early!"

"Yeah, let's go to bed early."

After saying that, my mother left. Every time she was at home, she would come and knock on the door around this time, telling Xu Lin to go to bed early.

Basically, all mothers in the world are like this.

Xu Lin went to bed a little after ten o'clock.

The next day, the 6th, Mid-Autumn Festival, arrived as scheduled.

Not long after Ms. Ren got up in the morning, the doorbell rang.

She walked over and looked through the peephole. It turned out to be Yu Xinyan carrying a box of mooncakes.

Ms. Ren opened the door and greeted the other party, saying, "Yan Yan, why are you here? Come in!"

"Hello, Auntie. I'm sending you a box of mooncakes! Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!"

Yu Xinyan presented a box of mooncakes with both hands.

"Yan Yan, you're so thoughtful! Come in and sit down!"

Ms. Ren took the mooncake and warmly invited the other party in.

With Ms. Ren at home, Yu Xinyan didn't dare to act recklessly. Usually when Xu Lin was around, she was naughty and lively, but now she was well-behaved. Ms. Ren asked her to sit on the sofa, and she sat there stiffly.

"Yan Yan, have you had breakfast?"

"Not yet!"

"Then let's eat here at Auntie's place later?"

Ms. Ren said, "Auntie is going to make glutinous rice balls!"

"Really? I love eating tangyuan the most!"

"I'll make the dumplings later. Tell Mom and Dad about it."

"OK!"

Yu Xinyan quickly sent a message to Yu Jianhua and the others, saying that she was eating dumplings here.

The couple had no choice but to agree.

"Auntie, isn't Xu Lin up yet?"

"No, let me go wake him up!"

"Auntie, let me go and shout!"

Yu Xinyan stood up.

Ms. Ren didn't say anything. She really liked Yu Xinyan. After all, she had watched her grow up and knew her inside and out.

"Yan Yan, wake him up. Auntie will go make the dumplings first!"

Xu Lin and his mother don't like to eat mooncakes, so they don't buy mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so they make glutinous rice balls instead.

Then Yu Xinyan pushed the door open and walked in.

Xu Lin and his mother have a harmonious relationship. Although he locks the door when he goes to bed at night, he doesn't lock it from the inside, so the door opens as soon as he turns the doorknob.

The air conditioner was on in the room, and Xu Lin was still sleeping under the quilt.

However, there was a bulge in the middle of the quilt, as if there was something inside.

Yu Xinyan had never eaten pork, but she had seen pigs run. During the summer vacation, she witnessed Xu Lin's extraordinary talent.

And we also learned in physiology class that it is normal for boys to have reactions in the morning, similar to when girls have their period.

However, Yu Xinyan's pretty face couldn't help but turn red.

She pursed her lips, walked over, and teased Xu Lin's eyelashes with her fingers.

"Xu Lin?"

Xu Lin's eyelashes moved and he finally opened his eyes.

"Bao, why are you here?"

"I brought you mooncakes!"

Yu Xinyan said, "Hurry up and get up, Auntie said she's making glutinous rice balls!"

"Wait a minute, I'm so tired."

Xu Lin turned over, closed his eyes, and lay on his side, looking like he was sleeping.

Yu Xinyan didn't expose him, knowing that Xu Lin's reaction was due to this morning.

After more than a minute, Xu Lin sat up from the bed and lifted the quilt.

Yu Xinyan took a quick look and everything was back to normal.

My mother made some glutinous rice balls in the morning. They were not the common sesame glutinous rice balls, but just flour and brown sugar. Xu Lin and his friends did not like those fancy glutinous rice balls, such as those with sesame seeds or peanuts.

"Yan Yan, what do you think of the glutinous rice balls made by Auntie?"

Ms. Ren asked Yu Xinyan who was happily eating dumplings.

"good to eat!"

“As long as it’s delicious!”

Ren Yan was also in a good mood, and she was also thinking about whether her son and Yu Xinyan could succeed.

Also, whether Xu Lin can keep up with Yu Xinyan's development in the future.

Like Yu Xinyan, from family to academics, she is an absolutely excellent player.

Ms. Ren thought about their family conditions. They must be very good. In their city, they are a very good family, but they are far inferior to high-ranking officials like Yu Jianhua. The gap is huge. The two families are just familiar with each other. Otherwise, people like Yu Jianhua can only be found in other places.

When it comes to talking about marriage, whether the other party agrees or not is a problem.

As a mother, Ms. Ren is indeed a little worried. She is afraid that her son will meet a bad girl, and she is also afraid that her son will miss a good girl, or that he will not be worthy of a good girl and end up missing her.

After having a full meal in the morning, Yu Xinyan left a little after nine o'clock because Yu Jianhua and his family of three were going back to their hometown to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Ms. Ren sent the other person away.

When he came back, he urged his son, "Hurry up and deliver the mooncakes we bought yesterday!"

"Why didn't you give the mooncake to Yanyan just now?"

"What do you know? This is called etiquette!"

Ms. Ren glared at Xu Lin and said, "Go quickly! They'll be out soon!"

"Fine!"

Xu Lin could only bring a box of mooncakes to the door.

He hadn't been to Yu Xinyan's house for a long time and almost forgot which floor it was.

Finally we arrived at our destination and saw Yu Jianhua and his friends were about to leave.

"Xu Lin!"

When Yu Xinyan saw Xu Lin, she quickly greeted him.

"Uncle, I brought you a box of mooncakes!"
