Lu Youning gently pressed her sore eyes, then stood up and stretched her muscles. She stretched her body widely, feeling that her muscles seemed to be making slight protests.

Lu Youning decided to go to the living room to drink a glass of water and relax his tense nerves.

As she walked into the living room, she heard the sound of a key turning in the door lock. The door opened, and it was her parents who had returned from get off work, carrying large and small bags of vegetables.

Lu Youning hurried over, took some bags and put them on the table.

"Mom and Dad, you bought so many vegetables. I haven't eaten mom's cooking for a long time. I'm in for a treat tonight." Lu Youning said with a smile.

As Lu Ma put the vegetables into the refrigerator, she replied:

"It's National Day holiday, buy some more food and have a good meal as a family. You must not be eating well at school, so mom will make you some chicken soup tonight to nourish you."

Dad was handing something to Lu Ma and echoed:

"Yes, everyone should take a good rest these few days. Ningning, you should eat more later. I haven't seen you for a week, and I see that you have lost weight again."

When Lu Youning heard this, her eyes lit up instantly: "Low weight? Really? I'll go back to my room and find a scale to weigh myself."

After saying that, he hurried back to his room.

Lu Youning found the scale from under the bed, wiped the dust off it, and couldn't wait to stand on it. The electronic scale showed 45.3 kg.

Uh...it seems like there's been no change, still around 90 pounds. Well, there's a kind of love called your dad thinks you've lost weight.

However, Lu Youning was not too sad. She felt it was good enough to maintain her current weight.

In her previous life, after she started working, she didn't like to exercise, so her highest weight was 130 pounds. Then she started to lose weight, but she lacked perseverance and gave up after losing weight to 120 pounds.

Lu Youning returned to the living room, poured a glass of water, took a sip, and then said, "Mom and Dad, I have good news for you. My brother will be back tomorrow."

When my parents heard this, they smiled in surprise. My mother said, "That's great! I haven't seen Huaiyu for a long time."

"Then when he comes back, we must have a good reunion as a family," said Dad Lu.

"By the way, do we want to go back to our hometown to visit our grandparents during the National Day? They must miss us too." Lu Youning asked.

Mother Lu: "That's a good idea. I haven't been back to see them for a long time. When your brother comes back, we can go back together."

Dad agreed: "It's time to go back and visit. Your grandparents will be very happy. It's also a good opportunity. You haven't seen your cousin Xiuyan from your uncle's family for a long time."

"Yeah, it's been a while since we last met. I miss them so much."

My uncle has three children. My eldest cousin, Lu Shaoen, is already working as a programmer. My second cousin, Lu Lingchuan, is still in college, majoring in architectural engineering. The youngest is Lu Xiuyan, fifteen years old and in the third year of junior high school.

At the dining table, Lu's father and mother kept picking up food for Lu Youning. Soon, a small mountain of food was piled up in Lu Youning's bowl.

She couldn't refuse the hospitality, so she had to eat them all. The end result was that her stomach was round and bloated.

Lu Youning slumped on the sofa, not wanting to move at all, and burped from time to time.

Seeing his daughter like this, Dad Lu felt a little guilty. He whispered, "Daughter, how about we go downstairs for a walk and watch some square dancing? It's just right for digestion."

Lu Youning quickly drank some water, trying to suppress the burp that kept coming up. After a while, he said:

"Okay, let's go now. I have homework to do later."

The family changed their shoes and walked out of the house together. At the door, they met Jiang Wenyu who had just returned.

Mother Lu: "Wenyu, long time no see, did you just get back?"

Jiang Wenyu replied, "Auntie, hello uncle, I came back this afternoon and just went to take out the trash."

Dad Lu: "Aren't you going out to play during the seven-day National Day holiday?"

Jiang Wenyu: "We only have two days off in our senior year, and we'll be back to school the day after tomorrow."

Mother Lu: "You are in your third year of high school now. You are very busy with your studies. You should pay more attention to your health."

Jiang Wenyu: "Okay, thank you for your concern, Auntie." After saying that, he nodded to Lu Youning and went home.

Lu Youning also nodded, feeling very calm inside. Now she just regarded him as an ordinary friend.

The neighborhood was exceptionally quiet at night, with only the occasional chirping of insects. Streetlights cast a soft glow, illuminating the path they were on.

Lu Youning walked in front holding Lu Ma's hand, talking about study, while Lu Dad walked slowly behind Lu Ma.

They arrived at the central garden of the complex, which was bustling with activity. The sound of cheerful music swept across the square like a whirlwind of energy.

A group of aunties danced to the rhythm of the music, their movements in perfect unison and their faces filled with bright smiles.

Children played at the edge of the square, some riding their little bicycles, others running around with colorful balloons. Laughter and the voices of their parents filled the air.

The family continued walking slowly, the breeze gently brushing against their faces, bringing a touch of coolness. Lu Youning felt the fullness in her stomach slowly subside, and her mood became more relaxed.

……

When she got home, Lu Youning immediately went back to her room, took out her math homework and started working on it. The math study method she had discussed with Ruan Fuxi was working for her.

Her current goal is to get the basic questions right, and try to get the intermediate questions right. If she can't figure out the difficult questions herself, she will ask others for help and ask the experts for help.

It took her about an hour and a half to finish a math problem just now. Her efficiency was too low. If the exam required more calculations, she would not have enough time.

Ask your math teacher or math expert some other day.

After taking a break to refresh her mind, Lu Youning took out her phone and took a picture of the cover of her math exercise book, then posted it on WeChat Moments.

"It takes me one and a half hours to solve a math problem. My efficiency is too low. Help! Math is so difficult. I need some method to improve my efficiency in solving math problems." The picture shows a pitiful emoticon.

Within two minutes, Lu Yixiao liked the post and commented: "Ningning, I find it hard too. Hug the crying emoji."

Gu Siyuan liked the post and commented: "I find English difficult. I know all 26 letters, but when they are put together, it recognizes me, but I don't recognize it."

Friends started to like and comment on the post, and Ruan Fuxi even sent a message.

After logging out, I went back to Weibo. Lu Youning remembered that in her previous life, after Douyin became popular, she rarely used Weibo. Later, she uninstalled it because it took up too much memory. Usually, when she got home from get off work, she would watch TV series and check Douyin.

Lu Youning was wondering if she could share her daily calligraphy practice on Weibo. She had been practicing calligraphy for nearly half a year, although she knew she was just getting started.

But she will keep practicing and sharing, hoping that someone will appreciate her calligraphy and ask her to be a pen substitute or something to earn some pocket money.

She also thought about writing novels to make money, but high school studies were too intense. She had never written a novel in her previous life, and now she was just learning how to occupy her study time.

You can try it after she goes to college.
