There is a mountain in her arms

When Jiang Yicheng returned to the classroom, the biology class had just started for a few minutes. She couldn't help feeling guilty because the biology teacher had some resentment towards her.

"report!"

"Ouch! Jiang Yicheng, did you go to the wrong school?"

"Teacher Wu, I also hope so at this moment, but unfortunately it is not."

"What have you been doing?"

"I was summoned by Teacher Cao, so I came back late."

"Okay, come in! You have to pay attention in class. Don't let me lose so many points in biology next time, otherwise people will think they have something against me."

"Of course not. I will definitely make you embarrassed."

"Okay! The whole class is a witness. Don't deny it."

The whole classroom burst into laughter and Teacher Wu knocked on the table.

"What's wrong? You want to be complained about? Keep going with the class."

Teacher Wu’s lectures are humorous, and students actually like to listen to his lectures. However, since it requires cells to divide continuously, many people don’t understand it, and students are also helpless.

After class, Wang Quan couldn't wait to turn around and inquire about the news.

"Sister Cheng, what does Lao Cao want to see you for?"

"Nothing. He told me not to be assimilated by you and to go crazy occasionally."

"Pfft!"

Zhang Ji and Yu Hansheng couldn't help but laugh secretly, even Luoyang, who was sitting in the other corridor, choked while drinking water.

"I don't want to say forget it."

"Would you like to come home with me for lunch?"

"want!"

Wang Quan understood that this was not the place to talk.

At noon, Wang Quan was driving Jiang Yichen and couldn't help asking her.

"What happened this morning?"

"Lao Cao wants me to go to evening self-study."

"Why is he thinking of this again? I seem to have heard Zhang Ji say that the class's admission rate is linked to the teacher's bonus. Could this be the reason?"

"Maybe! It has nothing to do with me. The people in the class have complicated feelings. How can I take care of them?"

"That's right, you just need to take care of me. Sister Cheng, how did you use the bonus from the college entrance examination?"

"What can you do with that little bonus? How did you spend your summer vacation?"

"Alas! You packed your bags and left without even taking me with you. My mother took me to work as a soldier, and I worked as a display clerk for a month. But luckily I got a job, because my troublesome little cousin came to my house for the summer vacation, and she gave my grandma a hard time."

"Why are you so gloating? Isn't your grandma very good to you?"

"I don't know if my grandma has gone through menopause yet. One moment she's very nice to me, and the next moment she's making indirect accusations against me. I'd rather not stay home if I can."

"You still have one year until the college entrance examination. Otherwise, ask your mother to get you a house outside, and you can live there when you come home."

Jiang Yichen gave him advice, but she was very protective of him.

"Sister Cheng, no wonder you get along so well with my mom, she thought the same way. When I was working, she got it done outside and didn't even tell my dad."

Wang Quan's words made Jiang Yichen smile. Of course, she and Song Niao would both be career-oriented women in the future.

"We're here. Huh? It looks like there's someone else at your house."

"Who's coming?"

Jiang Yichen jumped out of the car, pushed open the gate, and sure enough, he heard a burst of laughter.

"Uncle grandpa, aunt grandma."

"Chengcheng is back, and Wang Quan is here too."

"Uncle grandpa, aunt grandma."

Wang Quan also called for help and parked the bicycle in the shade of the yard.

"What are you so happy about?"

"Chengcheng, we bought a house too."

"Really? Congratulations!"

"It was also because of your advice that we have been looking for it outside. Some time ago, your cousin heard it when he was delivering goods, so I specifically asked about it. I didn't expect to find it now."

"Where is the house? What is it like?"

"It's also a second-hand house, but it's about 80% new. It's on the street behind the elementary school. The layout of the house is similar to yours, and it's perfect for our family. We can still save some money in case something goes wrong."

"That's good enough. Do you still rent a stall at the farmer's market? It seems far from the market."

"It's not too far away. We're still renting it. Otherwise, if we move to a new location, we won't be able to find our old customers."

Jiang Yichen agreed when he heard it. Apart from being farther away, nothing else had changed.

"Come and have dinner, both of you! If you want to know, I'll tell you tonight."

Grandma Jiang pulled her and Wang Quan to the table, and Auntie didn't say anything more and asked them to eat. But it was still obvious that they were both happy from the bottom of their hearts.

They came here after dinner just to talk about this, and now they are getting ready to go back to work.

Grandma Jiang saw them out and talked for a while before coming back in.

Wang Quan ate voraciously, which made Grandma Jiang feel distressed.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly, there's more here. Your family won't let you eat properly again?"

"Yes! Grandma Jiang, I am the poor little Bai Yang."

Jiang Yichen was a little speechless. A little sunshine would make it bright, a little lake water would make it flood.

With that strong woman behind him, how miserable could he be?

"Poor thing, if you don't want to eat at school in the future, just come home and I'll make you something delicious."

"Grandma Jiang, Sister Cheng is so happy."

"You're no worse than me. An An is laughing at you."

Wang Quan's originally brewing emotions were suddenly stuck, and when he saw An An grinning like a little fox, he instantly quieted down and started eating.

When they returned to school, Grandma Jiang prepared a lot of fruits for them to eat after class.

The corner of Wang Quan's mouth was raised and never came down. He said no, but stretched out his hand faster than anyone else.

On the way, Jiang Yichen was talking to him while holding some fruit in the back seat.

"Wang Quan, if you continue like this, I think we have to charge you for your meals."

"No problem! I'll tell my mom next time and ask her to deliver it to my door personally."

"You idiot, your mom is the landlord. My grandparents were so scared that they thought your mom would not rent the house to us anymore."

"Sister Cheng, just rest assured! You've already said that my mom is someone who does big things, would she care about a little drizzle at the school gate? Besides, I'm in your hands, my mom isn't that stupid!"

"Hey! So you knew it in your heart! I really thought you were stupid!"

"Sister Cheng, please don't belittle me. If I were really that stupid and could get into Class 1, would you look up to me?"

"Tsk tsk! I thought you were a little white sheep, but it turns out you are a hidden little fox."

"Can't it be the Big Bad Wolf?"

"What's a good word for Big Bad Wolf?"

The little fox doesn't seem to be like that! Wang Quan only dared to mutter this in his heart.

Before the school officially opened, Jiang Yichen and others had three days off, and then they would start school at the same time as everyone else.

Grandpa Jiang took them to help grandpa uncle move. Great-grandfather and his family had already returned to the city. Since it was close and the school was not in session yet, they went to help as well.

"Well! It's not much, thank you for your help!"

When my aunt saw them all coming, her face was filled with smiles. Who would have thought that in just over a year, they would have their own real home in the city.

"Sister Liu, you are still better than us."

Grandma was helping to clean the kitchen while feeling envious.

"Sister-in-law, I guess you guys should have saved a lot of money. Why don't you just be brave and buy a house? When we went to transfer the ownership of the house, we heard that the house price this year has increased a lot compared to last year. Who knows how much it will be next year!"

"Really? I was thinking of saving more before buying it."

"That's not true. House prices are rising every year. Can our speed of saving money be faster than that?"

"You're right. It seems we need to learn more about the big picture from you. We are also blinded by the comfortable life in front of us."

"Hey! It was Cheng Cheng who reminded me of this. Don't blame me for talking nonsense."

"How can that be possible! This is good advice."

With such a large group of people, there’s no need to go back and forth, it can be done in one trip.

Grandma Jiang looked at the vegetable garden in the yard with envy. Rural people like to have their own vegetable garden and grow whatever they want to eat.

“I really wish we could have a yard like yours and grow our own vegetables.”

"What are you envious of? Just look for it and you will find it. I heard from people in the market that it is easy to make money outside now, and many people have gone to live in other places. Those who are doing well have brought their families with them. Her sister-in-law, you are all in the city, why is your son still staying in the village? Is he reluctant to give up the position of village chief?"

My aunt just asked casually, but Grandma Jiang took it to heart.

Yes! The villagers are doing well now, and her son's position as village chief is not that good, he doesn't earn as much as those outside.

They are both old and can only help him for a few more years. It would be better for him to take over the burden early.

With an idea in mind, Grandma Jiang changed the subject and talked about something else.

Because they had a busy schedule the next day, they had a lively housewarming party in the afternoon.

In the evening, Grandma Jiang sent Jiang Ziqing and Jiang Zixiao to bed, and then called her husband and daughter-in-law together to discuss something.

"What do you think about our family buying a house?"

"Mom, isn't it fine now?"

Zhou Lanhua is very content now. Buying a house requires a lot of money, and she is reluctant to spend it.

Grandma Jiang also knew that her daughter-in-law had a narrow vision, but fortunately she was obedient and filial. She ignored her and just brought up what she had said to her aunt today.

"I'm doing this for your future. What if the house is no longer rented, we'll be in a mess and it won't affect the store. Besides, once you buy a house, it's yours. Now the children are grown up. Ziqing, a girl, shouldn't have her own room? Zitao has to share a room with his brother when he goes home. If the eldest brother comes, Ziqing will have no place to live."

Grandma Jiang’s explanation made perfect sense, and Zhou Lanhua found it to be reasonable.

Although she is a little bit patriarchal, she still loves her daughter very much.

Especially with Jiang Yichen as a comparison, she didn't want her daughter to be any worse than him.

And if a man comes over, there really isn't enough room for him at home, so now Ziqing always sleeps with her when he goes home.

"Dad, Mom, I listen to you."

"Old man, I think we should just quit our position as village chief. We are old, and our bodies can't handle being so busy all day. Besides, some people who come to eat at our old age may be reluctant to do so. We might as well let the eldest take over. At worst, we can go back to growing watermelons, and he can work in the store."

"Mom, this is unacceptable. Isn't this a poke in our spine? Either I go back with you, or you stay here. You have worked hard for us all your life, how can we let you go back to your hometown at the last minute?"

"Besides, my three children are watching you, not to mention my brother-in-law and sister-in-law! If I let you go like this, what if my children treat me the same way in the future? Absolutely not!"

"Lanhua, we know you are a filial son. I am not making this decision right now. I am just preparing for the worst."

"Mom, you can't even think like that. At worst, our whole family can go back and grow watermelons together."

You may be more reluctant to part with your current belongings than I am, Zhou Lanhua thought to herself.

"That won't do! We have finally managed to stabilize the situation, how can we just give it up! Let's ask the boss to come over!"

"Okay! I'll call him tomorrow."

As soon as Grandpa Jiang said this, Zhou Lanhua immediately responded. When she returned to her room, Jiang Ziqing was still awake.

"Why aren't you sleeping yet? School is going to start in two days, you better not be unable to cope."

"Mom, are you talking about the house?"

"how do you know?"

"I heard grandma and aunt talking today. Mom, if we buy a house, I want my own room."

When Zhou Lanhua heard her daughter's request, her heart ached and she gently helped her smooth her hair.

"Okay! Then the three of you will each have your own room."

"Mom, that's great. I want to decorate my room myself and have a bright window."

Listening to her daughter's fantasy, Zhou Lanhua thought of her home in the village. Although she had a room separated from her, it was small and had no windows.

Looking at my daughter's youthful and tender face, and thinking that she will be at home less and less, I feel that I owe her.

Jiang Weiguo was panicked when he received a call from his wife asking him to come to the city as soon as possible.

Did something happen? But he had just left. He didn't care that the harvest was still half a month away, and hurried over by car.

"Buy a house? That's it? If you want to buy one, just buy it! Anyway, we've made a lot of money from watermelons this year."

Jiang Weiguo didn't expect that he had to rush to the city just for this matter. He put aside his worries and gulped down two large bowls of water.

"do you agree!"

"Why not? The resources in the city are definitely better than those in the countryside! It will also be convenient for the children to go to school in the future. Besides, the house itself is real estate, so it's not a loss."

Zhou Lanhua didn't expect that the man could see things so clearly, and she couldn't help but reflect that she should not only look at what is in front of her.

"Then you should resign from your position as village chief! Your parents are old, and they are tired after working in the store all day. They want you to take over."

Jiang Weiguo was silent when he heard this. He felt sorry for his parents, but at the same time he was reluctant to leave the village.

"What are you thinking? To be honest, we can't afford to send our three children to school if we just rely on farming. It's not like when Wei Tong went to college and he got subsidies. That's a lot of tuition. If we have to support three college students, who knows how many more years will mom and dad have to work hard in the store? Maybe my brother-in-law and eldest sister will complain. It's better not to let the children go to college."

"That won't work! Only studying can change our destiny now. We have lived in the village all our lives. I can't let my children stay in this small place."

"Then what do you think we should do? You think I feel good about it? My brother-in-law's family is in the provincial capital, and my eldest sister's family is also high-income. Because of their support, their children will have a higher starting point than my children, and I feel bad about it."

It was also the first time that Jiang Weiguo realized the comparison in his wife's heart, but fortunately she didn't have any bad intentions.

"I'll think about it. You decide on the house purchase. This is the money from selling watermelons. I thought something happened at home, so I took the money with me."

After Jiang Weiguo finished speaking, he squatted under the eaves and smoked. The old couple took the children to Jiang Yichen's house, deliberately giving them space to talk.

Zhou Lanhua no longer forced him and sat in the room in a daze.

When the old couple came back with their children, Jiang Ziqing looked at his father happily.

"Dad, why are you here? Are you here to buy a house? Don't you know that my aunt and grandmother's family also bought a house with many rooms?"

"Buy a house? Dad, I want to have my own room just like An An."

Listening to his children's laughter and looking at his parents' gray hair and aged faces, Jiang Weiguo suddenly felt like a real bastard and made a decision in his heart.

"Okay, buy them. We have them all."
