"There are only five days until New Year's Eve. How about we leave for our hometown the day after tomorrow? After all, we still need to prepare New Year's goods and so on, which will take some time."

While eating hotpot, Tang Liu also made arrangements for them to return to their hometown to celebrate the New Year.

"Brother, what kind of people are grandparents?"

Xia Jinxi wiped the red oil from the corner of her mouth and asked Tang Yuze.

"Xiao Xi has been here for such a long time, but she hasn't met them yet. Will they be angry?"

"Of course not. Grandpa and grandma are very kind and gentle people. They won't be angry with Xiao Xi."

In Tang Yuze's impression, Grandpa Tang Jingshan and Grandma Xu Tingxiu are both very kind people, and he has rarely seen them get angry.

It would be better to say that they all doted on their grandson a little too much. Tang Yuze had done a lot of naughty things in the past. Thinking back on it now, he felt that he deserved a beating. In the end, it was Tang Liu who taught Tang Yuze a lesson.

"Besides, they are so happy to have a granddaughter as cute as Xiao Xi, so how could they be angry with you?"

"Hey, stop calling me cute!"

Xia Jinxi put another piece of beef into her mouth and ate it with great satisfaction.

When Tang Liu and Lin Hui saw the two children's sticky look, they didn't think much about it, but just felt that Tang Yuze was really good.

When he becomes a father in the future, his children will be blessed.

The family of four ate hotpot for about an hour and a half before returning home.

The last time Tang Liu and Lin Hui left, they bought a bed and placed it in the empty room that was rarely used.

After returning home this time, Lin Hui cleaned the room thoroughly and made the bed.

Although the room is simple and has no air conditioning, it is definitely suitable for living.

So this time, Tang Yuze finally didn't have to share a bed with his sister...

"The high-speed rail tickets have been booked. Do you need to bring anything else?"

Grandpa Tang Jingshan and grandma Xu Xiuting are both in City C, the capital of Province S, while City S, where Tang Yuze and his family live, is on the edge of Province S.

Having said that, the domestic high-speed rail is so developed now that a direct trip only takes an hour, and a second-class ticket costs 52 per person.

Tang Liu had already booked the ticket from City S to City C last week.

After all, it is definitely impossible to buy tickets during this period close to the New Year, so you have to grab them in advance.

Tang Yuze's family actually has a car. The last time they went mountain climbing, it was Tang Liu who drove the family there.

It’s just that the roads are too congested during the New Year period. Instead of getting stuck in traffic on the main roads, it’s better to take the high-speed rail and get there in less than an hour.

Moreover, oil prices are high during this period, so taking the high-speed rail doesn’t seem to be much more expensive.

Of course, if Tang Liu really can’t get a ticket, he can also drive there.

"By the way, speaking of the New Year, when my brother was teaching Xiaowen how to cook a few days ago, he had a few marinade packets left over!"

Xia Jinxi suddenly thought of it.

"Who is Xiaowen?"

"Classmate, good friend!"

Xia Jinxi briefly told Lin Hui about Gao Xiaowen's situation, and Lin Hui was pleased that her daughter finally made friends of the same age.

"Your brother is so kind that he even teaches a female classmate how to cook? Could it be that he has a crush on her?"

After saying that, Lin Hui looked at Tang Yuze with a scrutinizing gaze.

After she said this, Xia Jinxi also looked at Tang Yuze with the same eyes.

These two people, clearly not related by blood, can behave like real mother and daughter at times like this.

Absolutely.

"Don't think too much. I don't have any feelings towards her. I only taught her to cook because she is Xiaoxi's friend."

By the way, shouldn’t Xia Jinxi know that the reason Tang Yuze taught Gao Xiaowen how to cook New Year’s Eve dishes was just because she was her best friend?

"You really have no idea?"

"No."

"That's not right. Didn't Xiao Xi say that your female classmate is pretty? Speaking of you, kid, I've never seen you have any female friends since you were a child..."

Lin Hui looked doubtful and asked pointedly:

"You kid...are you gay?"

"no!"

Tang Yuze has a very difficult life.

If he has any thoughts about girls of the same age, he will be looked down upon. If he doesn't have any thoughts, he will be suspected of being gay. So what should he do?

"But the things you made are pretty good, so take them over."

Lin Hui couldn't figure it out. Ever since she and Tang Liu got married, she, as the mother, had always been responsible for cooking. Her cooking skills were pretty good. She could cook most home-cooked dishes, and they were all delicious.

Tang Yuze started learning to cook after Tang Liu and Lin Hui went to work in other places and he became a day student.

It has been only more than three years, but now his cooking skills are much better than hers, who has been cooking for more than ten years.

This kid of mine always has some unexpected talents.

"By the way, didn't you get your test results a few days ago? How did you do?"

"It's just so-so, first in the city. I should be able to receive another 5,000 in scholarships next semester."

Jiangcheng Middle School awards scholarships to students with outstanding academic performance in every final exam. Students ranked 50 to 20 in the grade receive the third-tier scholarship, which is only 800 yuan.

19到10名为第二档1500块,10到4名为第一档2000块,而前三名独一档,分别为3000,3500和5000。

The first prize of their class, 5000 yuan, was won by Tang Yuze every semester.

Tang Liu and Lin Hui never asked Tang Yuze for his scholarship. In their words, they never expected him to get the scholarship. If he really got it, even if it was his own money, they as parents would not confiscate it and would still give him living expenses every month.

"You? Who asked you? How did Xixi do in the exam?"

"Well... it's just okay. I ranked 13th in the class and 15th in the grade."

Tang Yuze answered on behalf of Xia Jinxi.

"You call this... okay?"

Lin Hui looked at Xia Jinxi in surprise.

"Yeah...it's OK."

From Tang Yuze's perspective, his Xiaoxi performed somewhat exceptionally well in the final exam, but it wasn't enough to surprise him.

But when Lin Hui saw it, it was completely different.

She never asked Xia Jinxi to achieve any particular results, as long as she could grow up healthily as a normal girl.

But now she can actually get top grades in the grade in the best high school in the city. This is as shocking as knowing that Tang Yuze ranked first in the city in junior high school.

Of course, the latter one was more frightening. After all, he was the first in the city. In Lin Hui's opinion at that time, it would be impossible for Tang Yuze to take the exam even if he held a computer.

"By the way, Xiaoxi did so well in the exam, so she should get a scholarship?"

"Hmm...it seems so."

"Well, since we won't be back home until the day after tomorrow, I'll go get you a bank card tomorrow. When the scholarship is paid, it will serve as Xixi's little piggy bank."

Lin Hui suggested.

"Okay."

This time, Xia Jinxi accepted Lin Hui's kindness to her very frankly.

The most important thing is that she now feels that she really needs a small treasury.

Just a few days before Lin Hui and the others came back, it was Tang Yuze's birthday. At that time, Xia Jinxi really wanted to give her brother a gift, but she had no money.

In the end, Xia Jinxi could only say happy birthday to him, gave him a hug and ended the conversation hastily.

Although her brother looked very happy and said that no one except her parents had remembered his birthday for a long time, Xia Jinxi still felt a little guilty for not being able to give her brother a better birthday gift.

Next time, she will definitely use the money she earns to prepare a birthday present for her brother.
