The all-round academic master's girlfriend

The next day, Lin Hui took Xia Jinxi out and applied for a bank card for her, and also bought her a small pink wallet.

Originally, after she returned home, she wanted to do a thorough cleaning before the New Year, but Tang Yuze and Xia Jinxi usually cleaned the house very well, so she had nothing to do.

Then, the day came for them to return home.

City C, the capital of Province S, is naturally the place with the highest GDP in the province and is much more prosperous than City S.

However, the Tang family's hometown is not near the city center, but on the outskirts of the city, so the various places in their hometown do not look much different from those in City S.

The only big difference is that they have an ancient town attraction here. During the Chinese New Year, the ancient town becomes quite lively.

"Dad, Mom, we are back."

Tang Liu dragged the suitcase in his left hand and held the New Year's goods in his right hand. He took out the keys that might only come in handy during these few days of the year and returned here.

"Well, I'm glad I'm back. Is there any traffic jam on the road?"

"No, we came here by high-speed train."

The old man who was watching TV on the sofa spoke to Tang Liu.

This old man who looks very energetic is Tang Liu's father, Tang Jingshan, Tang Yuze's grandfather.

Although my grandfather is over 70 years old and has a head full of white hair, he is still in good health and looks energetic.

"Why did you bring so many things? Come in and sit down. You must be tired after taking the high-speed train so early, right?"

The other old lady with a kind face who came up to help Tang Liu carry the bag was Grandma Xu Tingxiu.

"Hello, grandparents."

The first time she met her grandparents, Xia Jinxi was still a little nervous.

But even though she was nervous, she didn't show any stage fright when she greeted people, nor did she use her shy tone.

Because she was afraid that the elderly had poor hearing and if she became timid, they might not be able to hear her greeting.

"Hey, this little girl should be the daughter of Xia Wenxuan's family, right? Her name is Xia Jinxi, right?"

"Yes, grandma, just call me Xiaoxi."

"Alas, Xia Wenxuan is a bad boy. I think the little girl has suffered a lot in the past few years."

Xu Tingxiu sighed.

Tang Liu and Xia Wenxuan were good brothers when they were students, and he also visited their home to say hello.

Later, they each started working, and the two brothers would occasionally get together for a drink.

Tang Jingshan and Xu Tingxiu still find it hard to believe that the young man who was so high-spirited back then would eventually turn into a scum who wanted to trade his own flesh and blood for money.

"It's okay, Mom. It's all in the past. Xia Jinxi is our child now. That's enough."

Tang Liu seemed to feel that this topic was too heavy at this time when the wanderer was returning home, so he quickly turned the page.

"Yes, look at my mouth. Why do I keep talking about these unlucky things when it's almost New Year? Come in and sit down first."

Xu Tingxiu quickly called everyone back into the house. Tang Liu and Lin Hui went to put their luggage away first, while Tang Yuze and Xia Jinxi were left on the sofa to chat with the old man.

"Yuze, has it been hard studying and living these days?"

"It's good. Xiaoxi and I both performed very well in this final exam."

"I'm sorry, if my pension was a little bit higher, your parents and you wouldn't have to work so hard."

When Tang Jingshan was young, he worked hard to make money to support his family. It was not until he was in his thirties that he found a stable job in a factory in City C.

However, since his length of service was not long and his pension was relatively small, Tang Liu and Lin Hui decided to follow the company's arrangement and transfer him to work in another place, and send money to them every two months.

Tang Liu and Lin Hui went to other places to work and earn money, so Tang Yuze became a left-behind child.

He had suggested at the beginning that Tang Liu should simply sell the house in City S and let Tang Yuze come to City C to study and live with them.

However, due to the household registration issue, it was quite troublesome to transfer to another school. Their hometown was located in a relatively remote area of ​​City C, and the teaching level of nearby schools was not as good as that of Jiangcheng Middle School. In the end, this matter did not come to fruition.

He also felt a little guilty about this.

"Grandpa, don't say that. It was already a great achievement for you to feed my dad in those days."

Tang Yuze knew clearly that in his grandfather's generation, people would literally starve to death.

He had not experienced the hardships of the older generation, and he would not blame them.

"Besides, I have Xiaoxi living with me now, so I don't feel so lonely."

Tang Yuze knew clearly that when they reached their grandparents' age, they would be very afraid that their grandchildren would suffer injustice, especially that he would be left alone in S City and would be lonely without his family around.

So, he moved Xia Jinxi out at this time to reassure his grandparents.

"Well, you won't be lonely as long as I'm with you brother!"

Preferably for a lifetime...

"Really? Then we are relieved."

Tang Jingshan breathed a sigh of relief.

In the following time, the grandfather and grandson sat on the sofa watching the epic anti-Japanese drama on TV, and grandma Xu Tingxiu also stuffed Xia Jinxi with a lot of candy.

Tang Liu and Lin Hui should be making the bed.

"By the way, brother, I suddenly thought of a question."

"what happened?"

"There are so many people in our family now, are there enough beds?"

Starting from Tang Liu and Lin Hui making the bed, Xia Jinxi suddenly thought of this matter.

If there are not enough beds in her hometown like there are in their home, or if there are not enough beds after Xia Jinxi comes, then can she...

"Oh, don't worry about that. Our room is definitely big enough for sleeping."

Tang Yuze said firmly.

"In addition to my grandparents' room, there is also a room reserved for my parents. Add in the room originally reserved for my uncle and the guest room, and there is definitely enough space for us."

"uncle?"

"Yes, he is our father's younger brother."

"Then he won't be back for the New Year?"

"He probably won't come back. I haven't seen him for a long time."

As far as Tang Yuze can remember, he hasn't seen his uncle in his hometown since he entered junior high school.

"Humph, that kid is also a loser. He hasn't been home for several years."

Tang Liu's younger brother, Tang Jiang, who is also Tang Yuze's uncle, is said to have married a very strong aunt.

My aunt's family is very rich and looks down on their financial situation. She refused to bring my uncle to visit my father-in-law during the Chinese New Year.

Sometimes Tang Yuze couldn't understand why his aunt was willing to marry his uncle if she looked down on their family so much.

Could it be that his uncle was very handsome when he was young, so he was raised as a gigolo?

Forget it, forget it. We still can’t make malicious assumptions about our relatives.

"Hey, didn't he say he would come back to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the new year? Stop complaining, old man."

"Hmm? Will uncle come back this year?"

After learning the unexpected news, Tang Yuze asked Xu Tingxiu.

"Yes, he hasn't been back for four years. Xiao Jiang must be homesick."

"And the bed...?"

"But they should just find a hotel to stay in."

"Well..."

Xu Tingxiu's words completely put an end to Xia Jinxi's attempt to get into Tang Yuze's bed.
