The 80s Chronicle: Addiction To the Army’s Young Wife

Many people at the banquet knew the father and son, and many of them were guests of the boss. However, the father and son had always had a good relationship with Mr. Sun. It was said that Mr. Sun and the Feng Shui master had grown up together. , and also read books together.

Xu Ning had never been exposed to this profession, and she didn't believe in it, so she didn't pay too much attention to their father and son.

"You two don't believe this, do you?" Qin Zhao asked with a smile.

Xie Zheng and Xu Ning looked at each other.

Believe it or not, it is not that simple.

At least Xie Zheng doesn't believe it, but rebirth itself is a very fantasy thing, so this question will be kept for now.

Xu Ning shook her head simply, "I don't believe this."

Qin Zhao laughed out loud, "Actually, I don't believe it either, but all the companies under the Diyi Group have their sites chosen by Feng Shui masters. For me, as long as the place is right, the difference is ten to eight meters or even It doesn’t matter if it’s ten or eight miles away, I just want to have peace of mind.”

"What can you be afraid of? You won't do anything wrong." Xu Ning smiled.

"It's not because I feel guilty. You always have to choose a place. I don't understand this aspect. I can't build directly after looking at a piece of land. I still need to find someone to look at it."

Xu Ning did not continue. Naturally, he didn't know how to discuss it since it didn't involve any areas.

You can't talk about the topics in the books. You all know that they are fake and fictitious, but Xu Ning likes reading this type of novels. Every time, she follows their writing and immerses herself in them. She is not afraid, but nervous and exciting.

However, Mr. Sun still brought the father and son over. Xu Ning glanced at him and felt that he really had an immortal spirit and a peerless feeling. Of course, his appearance could only be described as ordinary, but his temperament added a lot of charm to him. Less points.

"Mr. Xu, I would also like to thank you for this Buddhist bead bracelet." The man smiled gently at him, "My name is Minghong, and I am a Feng Shui master."

Xu Ning shook hands with the other party, "A real Feng Shui master?"

After hearing this, Minghong couldn't help laughing and said: "If Mr. Xu has come into contact with Feng Shui masters before, then I will probably be considered one of the best."

"I haven't seen it before. I don't believe in Feng Shui." Xu Ning answered simply.

Minghong wasn't angry either. The other party's expression was frank, saying he didn't believe him, but he didn't think he was a liar.

In fact, he understood the other party's mood very well. When his grandfather and father were discussing this, he thought the two were swindlers who muttered things that people couldn't understand all day long. Only after they came into contact later did he realize this. It was not what he imagined. A Feng Shui master with the so-called yin and yang eyes could not catch ghosts.

Minghong didn't know if there were ghosts in the world. Anyway, he had never seen a ghost since he was a child. His grandfather and father said that there were ghosts. Even if he hadn't seen them before, it didn't mean that ghosts didn't exist. The so-called "ghost" is nothing more than a magnetic field.

He chatted with Xu Ning for a few words here, and found that the other party knew the situation on the Buddhist bead bracelet. Since he knew, the starting price of one thousand yuan was, to be honest, a cabbage price.

This kind of Buddhist beads bracelets generally only have a wooden texture, and some will have characteristic lines formed by scarring, bifurcation and twisting during the growth period. What will these lines grow into during the re-growth period? No one knows what it looks like. It is called a ghost face. Of course, under special conditions, there will also be ghost eye patterns.

Minghong likes wooden objects. Most of his home decorations, ornaments, etc. are made of wood.

Since Xu Ning knew the characteristics of this Buddhist bead bracelet and still put it up for auction, that was his personal luck.

In fact, Minghong didn't like to say esoteric words about Feng Shui to attract attention on certain occasions. If he didn't need a special status to attend today, he would tell strangers about his profession.

In his private life, he is just an ordinary middle-aged man. He goes to the park to play Tai Chi with his wife, plays chess with a few friends, and goes out for dinner parties. It is not what others imagine. He wants to live in a place with fresh air. He wouldn't be able to stand it in places like Taoist temples in the mountains with beautiful scenery.

Although it gives people the feeling of being a worldly expert, the key point is that it is inconvenient, and besides, it must be such a depressing day.

There is also the so-called entry into the world, etc. You are in this world, so there is no so-called entry and exit.

Besides, it's a good thing that Feng Shui masters are not as fantasy as in novels, otherwise Ming Hong would never do this profession. To put it shamefully, he is afraid of ghosts.

The Feng Shui business in Hong Kong City is booming. Ming Hong is also one of the best Feng Shui masters in this area. He is almost seventy years old and lives in a limited-edition luxury villa. In the area, people usually don't accept business, but if they do, the price will be sky-high.

Of course, there are also many young people in this industry, and you can see those who are capable, and everyone has their own living habits.

Minghong and his wife live in an ordinary residential building. Of course it has an elevator. The house was bought a few years ago. The relationship with the neighbors is very good. His wife is still a gossip, and when she gets home she Talking to him about these things, the two of them would not discuss it with others outside. This is what makes life fulfilling and enjoyable.

Although the family has a lot of savings, they are not extravagant characters. They save all their money. If they need donations on special occasions, they will donate part of it, and the rest is reserved for retirement. As for his son, he has own ability.

The cherry blossoms are withered and spread on the ground. From a distance, they look gorgeous, extremely beautiful and gorgeous.

The temperature is rising little by little, and the little guy Ian is also growing up little by little.

The elders in the family stayed abroad for two and a half months before reluctantly returning to China. During this long trip abroad, the four elderly people seemed to look better.

After returning home and having dinner with the children, several people discussed that they would go out to play after the Chinese New Year next year. This time they would go to other countries. The old lady even said that she would go to the Antarctic to see penguins and the Arctic to see polar bears. Come and make the family dumbfounded.

However, Gao Xiulan was very interested and nodded in agreement.

But they were stopped by Xu Rui. The temperature in both places was tens of degrees below zero. When the four old people went there, who could rest assured? What if they got frozen?

As for whether they listened or not, only they themselves know, but their family members will definitely not agree.

I really want to think about how many countries in the world can they go to such a cold place, and we must stop them.

Ian's birthday is coming soon. On the eve of this birthday, Xu Rui said at home that there is no need to make it too grand, it can just be a family meal together.

During this time, Ian also began to tremble and began to learn to walk with the help of his elders at home.

The weather was warm, and the little kid was wearing crotchless pants and was led by Xu Jianjun and his wife to practice walking under the corridor. Despite his young age, he was full of energy. Sometimes his grandparents were so tired that they couldn't stand up, but the kid refused to give up.

But even so, Xu Jianjun and his wife did not dare to let their child walk for too long. After all, the bones were still very fragile, and it would be good for him to walk later.

Guozhuang, Wen Xiao will take the high school entrance examination in a few days. The exam will be held at a middle school in the county.

Because of this, Guan He and his wife simply stayed here without caring about anything else. Guan He would assist Wen Xiao in her homework every night. If she didn't understand anything, he would focus on tutoring her.

For children, there are two difficulties in their academic career, the high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination.

If the high school entrance examination collapses, you will have no hope of studying in high school. If the college entrance examination collapses, at least you can still repeat it. But even if you can repeat it, there are a few children who can endure a year of high-pressure study. Anyone who has experienced it knows that the college entrance examination In the last year, it is a nightmare, but you can only overcome it, there is no second way.

Now Wen Xiao is facing the first threshold. She has indeed worked hard this year. Guan He naturally does not want this child to stop at a simple nine-year compulsory education.

Perhaps it was his sister's attitude towards learning that infected Wenfeng. The child no longer ran out like a monkey after school, but stayed at home and did his homework with peace of mind.

He knew that his aunt and uncle were not joking. If he was still last in this exam, they really wouldn't take him out to play.

The day before the high school entrance examination, the teachers in the school will let the children relax and review their homework. Of course, they will also use the intermittent time to explain a few knowledge points to the students to consolidate them.

Guanhe and his wife took advantage of this day to go out and buy some stationery for Wen Xiao. Early the next morning, the students would rush to school and take the bus to the county test center.

In the evening, Guo Yujie cooked a table full of delicious dishes for Wen Xiao.

"Wen Xiao, is there anything you don't understand?" Although she was the one taking the exam, the whole family became nervous. On the contrary, Wen Xiao's mood changed from tense before to inexplicably calm now.

"I've read everything I need to preview, and there's nothing I don't understand..." She thought for a while, "I couldn't remember it for a while. I seemed to understand everything, and sometimes I seemed to have forgotten everything."

"..."

Yu Conghui laughed and said, "Maybe you will remember it when you see the test paper tomorrow. Your uncle and I will wait for you outside the test center tomorrow and take you to dinner at noon!"

Wen Xiao nodded and did not refuse. Although there was a canteen there, eating outside the school was also allowed.

That night, Wen Xiao tossed and turned and didn't fall asleep until midnight.

Then I woke up before six o'clock. Then I got up, washed my face and brushed my teeth. After waking up my brother, I carried my schoolbag and went to my grandma's house.

Here, Guo Yujie had already made breakfast. When she saw her granddaughter coming over, she brought the food to the small dining table and asked her to eat first. After eating, she would go to school. They usually had breakfast after seven-thirty, no. with the kids.

The high school entrance examination not only tests children, but also the ardent hopes of adults.

They know that if they fail in the high school entrance examination, they will have no choice but to drop out of school and go to work. However, if they are admitted to high school, it is equivalent to half-stepping into the university. Although the quality of this university still requires your three years of high school hard work.

After breakfast, Wen Xiao went to school alone carrying his schoolbag.

Guanhe and his wife had breakfast until ten o'clock before driving to town from home.

When we arrived at Wen Xiao's test center, there were already a lot of parents waiting here. Of course, the number would never reach the number of parents of all students. It was about 30 to 40 percent.

There are also many parents who don't care much about their children's studies. After all, it costs money to study. If they don't pass the exam, they go to work to earn money. For them, there is nothing wrong with this path. When other families are still spending their parents' money, Their children have already started to earn money.

However, Guan He hopes that his wife's two nephews will have a bright future. Even if they can't find a good job after graduating from college, at least they will have more choices and a broader mind.

The two sat in the car chatting, and Yu Conghui also went to a small store not far away to buy a lot of snacks.

It wasn't until half past eleven that the end of exam bell rang, and the campus quickly became agitated and boiling.

Many students walked out of the examination room and found familiar people. When they saw each other's answers to a certain question, they would cheer. If they heard the answers were different, they would discuss whose answer was correct, and then there would be a burst of wailing.

After Wen Xiao separated from the classmates he knew, he walked out of the school with his schoolbag, looked around, and soon found the Guanhe couple.

She ran over quickly.

"How's it going?" Yu Conghui stuffed a bottle of water into her arms, "Drink some water quickly and get in the car. Auntie will take you to eat delicious food."

After sitting here, Guan He took the two of them to a braised chicken restaurant in the county. There were already many people in the store at this time, and the three of them found a seat upstairs.

Wen Xiao talked about several big questions with the two of them, took out a pen and wrote on a blank piece of paper, and then handed the answers to Guan He.

Guan He took advantage of waiting for the food to read it over to her, and finally found that two of the questions were wrong, and the wrong formula was used in the calculation. One of the big questions was worth six points.

Seeing the correct answer, Wen Xiao consolidated it, and then said: "My estimated math score is over 110, and the others are uncertain."

Wen Xiao's grades are actually average. There is no partial subject, and there is no particularly strong subject. Relatively speaking, she still prefers liberal arts. Although there is no distinction between liberal arts and science in middle school, Guan He has talked to her about it a lot before. After entering high school, she will be divided into liberal arts and science. She has decided to choose liberal arts. Only mathematics is slightly better in science. She always can't understand physics and chemistry. She can enter the examination room calmly this time because Guan He did it for her before. Unexpected counseling after a period of time.

According to her results, there is little hope for the No. 1 Middle School in the county, but there is still no big problem for the No. 3 Middle School.

During these three days, Guanhe and his wife waited here for Wen Xiao every day until the end. On the third day, they came out of the examination room at 3:30 in the afternoon. After the examination, they returned to school that same day. The teacher gave a brief explanation , gave the students a holiday, and the rest of the time is waiting at home. After a few days, you can use your admission number to call or check your high school entrance examination results online. They have already filled out their high school entrance examination choices before the exam. .

Wen Xiao's three choices were No. 1 Middle School, No. 3 Middle School and No. 9 Middle School. These three high schools are all in the county.

In the past, in schools in remote villages like theirs, it was almost rare to see No. 1 Middle School, and it was already pretty good to go to No. 3 Middle School. Most of them were from No. 9 Middle School to No. 13 Middle School. Wen Xiao’s ambition was to go to No. 3 Middle School. She filled out the application under Guan He's guidance. Of course, her first choice was No. 1 Middle School. She was also working hard for this goal. If she failed to pass, she would settle for No. 3 Middle School, and then No. 9 Middle School!

Although it is called the Ninth Middle School, among the fifteen high schools in the entire county, the No. 1 Middle School and the No. 3 Middle School are ranked first and second. The No. 2 Middle School is not in the county, and the teacher qualifications were later replaced by the No. 3 Middle School.

After the high school entrance examination, Guanhe and his wife, who had lived at home for a long time, went back.

Before leaving, she said she would take Wen Xiao to live with her for a while, but since Wen Feng was still in school, she took advantage of her vacation time to help the family with cooking and housework, and rejected her aunt's kindness.

Half a month later, Wen Xiao picked up the phone at home and dialed the score query. She scored 603 points out of a total score of 750. The admission score for No. 1 Middle School was 625 points. Wen Xiao was not able to score because the gap was not small. Passed the exam, but the score line for No. 3 Middle School was enough.

I called my aunt and uncle to tell the news, and when I heard that Yu Conghui was there, I cried with joy.

"Well done, Wen Xiao, I'm proud of you as my niece. You are the first child in our entire Guozhuang to pass the high school entrance examination."

Wen Xiao was in a daze for a moment. She thought about it and realized that it was really like this.

In the past, the most present person in the village was her aunt, but because she failed in the high school entrance examination, she went to a vocational school and went to high school seriously. Wen Xiao was the first and currently the only one.

If we were in the imperial capital, with a total score of 750, the admission score of the First High School would be at least 690 and above. However, the educational software and hardware here are much different after all. If we recruit students according to the admission score of first-tier cities, I am afraid that students will really be admitted. There are less than a few people, let alone full recruitment. The whole county is lucky to be able to recruit a class.

The total scores and admission scores are different in various provinces and cities, and the educational conditions are different, so naturally they cannot be treated equally.

Wen Xiao also performed extremely well in their school during this high school entrance examination.

Guan He and his wife came over the next day after receiving the call. As soon as they entered the house, they saw many people from their own clan sitting in the house, discussing Wen Xiao's affairs lively.

Also present was Wen Xiao's class teacher.

"This time, two students from our school were admitted to the first middle school, and nineteen students from the second and third middle schools broke last year's record. This year, more than 130 students at your level were admitted to the high school. Wen Xiao This time she really excelled, and as her class teacher, I feel very proud and proud.”

"Today's No. 3 Middle School has stronger education and teaching staff than No. 2 Middle School. No. 2 Middle School has 11 people and No. 3 Middle School has eight people. Wen Xiao is one of these three middle schools."

The elders of the Yu family present were extremely happy. They were the first high school student in Guozhuang. This was definitely a great event.

Wen Feng was eating raisins next to him, listening to everyone constantly praising his sister. He felt happy in his heart, but also felt a little disappointed.

"I will also be admitted to high school!" he whispered.

After hearing this, Yu Minghui, who took a day off because his daughter was admitted to high school, raised his hand and slapped his son on the head, "Work harder, you two, brother and sister, go to high school together."

Seeing this, the head teacher looked at Yu Minghui and Guo Yujie, "Is there any difficulty at home?"

"Teachers can rest assured that the tuition fees for the children's schooling have been saved for them," Yu Minghui said.

Besides, if it is not enough in the future, he will have to borrow money to support his two children's education. As long as the children want to read and can read, he is willing to work hard.

As noon approached, everyone present dispersed. Even if they wanted to eat, they would have to wait at least two days before Wen Xiao started school. It was still too early.

However, Wen Xiao's head teacher was kept at home for dinner.

At the dinner table, I heard that Wen Xiao had been tutored by Guan He at home for more than half a month, and the other person was an undergraduate student at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. If you really want to say that he had a higher education than him, he was from an ordinary normal school.

Of course, teaching skills are not enough in this school. Excellent teachers have long been poached by good schools above.

But even so, he is still a people's teacher worthy of respect.

Guan He's role in this is limited, and they, the teachers, are the guiding lights for the children.

Yu Conghui then called Xu Ning and told him the good news.

Xu Ning was really surprised when she heard it.

After all, in this day and age, a village can only produce one high school student. Xiangshan Village is considered remote, but in the past few years, there have been three or two high school students every year.

When I talked about this matter with Xie Zheng in the evening, Xie Zheng didn't seem too surprised.

"It is located in a remote place, and the teaching level cannot be compared with that of the imperial capital. Moreover, coupled with the images of people around, there are not many children who can calm down and study. In places with difficult conditions, golden phoenixes can indeed fly, but golden phoenixes You can tell from their names that most of them are willing to be mediocre. They may prefer to drop out of school and work instead of studying, and their parents’ ideas are not as open as those in the city, and they don’t value learning as much, so it’s not surprising.”

"Is the difference big?" Xu Ning's parents are both intellectuals, so her experience is actually limited.

Xie Zheng continued: "The difference is not only reflected in the degree of emphasis, but also in belief. Meng's mother moved three times, which also illustrates this issue from the emphasis. Not everything you have learned in your life can be used, but you can understand more and be broad-minded and kind. Your horizons will naturally broaden. Parents, teachers, and children themselves are all complementary to each other. If one of them is holding back, it will lead to a different life."

Xie Zheng's words were relatively obscure, but Xu Ning could understand them.

"Then, let's give you a red envelope. We can't help but express our gratitude when our children are admitted to high school."

"Okay, you can figure it out." Xie Zheng had no objection.

The next morning, Yu Conghui's mobile phone received a text message from Xu Ning, saying that a sum of money was given to her card and it was a red envelope for Wen Xiao to pass into high school.

Yu Conghui put the phone in front of Yu Minghui and said with a smile: "Sister Xu Ning gave the red envelope to Wen Xiao. Guan He and I will give it to you after lunch."

When Yu Minghui saw the number on the bank text message notification, his jaw dropped in surprise.

"so much?"

"It's Sister Xu Ning's wish. Just accept it." After all, it wouldn't be appropriate to go back, even though that wasn't what she meant when she called Xu Ning.

When Guo Yujie heard about this at noon, she was a little worried, "Isn't this inappropriate?"

After all, the relationship between the two families is not very harmonious.

But Yu Conghui smiled and said: "Since Sister Xu Ning gave it to her, she means it sincerely. Mom, don't think too much about it and just accept it. Otherwise, if you take it back, Sister Xu Ning will think that we have a problem with her."

"Yes, Mom, initiative and voluntariness are two different things. Since you have given it, just accept it. Wen Xiao will have to live on campus for the next three years, and eating at school every month is an expense. Two children It’s quite difficult to study and make money on my own with my eldest brother.”

Of course, they will also give Yu Minghui a sum of money. They discussed it with his wife when he came here the day before yesterday, and it was 3,000 yuan. After all, the family still has to pay for the mortgage of three houses, which is also stressful, and the 3,000 yuan has already been squeezed out. .

Now after three years of high school, the annual tuition, accommodation, meals, pocket money and other miscellaneous things are only 6,000 yuan a year here. In three years, it is almost 20,000 yuan. As for going to college in a few years, it will be about the same every year. It’s about 20,000.

Although Yu Minghui is still working, his work unit is unstable. When he works a lot, he can earn 3,000 yuan, and when he works a little, he can earn only 1,800 yuan. The annual net profit from the land's production is only about 2,000 to 3,000 yuan. , I can earn about 20,000 yuan a year, and my family still has to eat and drink. It is really difficult to have the remaining money to support the education of my two children.

In the afternoon, the two took Yu Minghui to the county and put the money into his bank card. It was 60,000 yuan. According to this situation, this money could even pay for Wenxiao's graduation from college.

At the end of July, Wen Feng also finished the exam. Before, he was ranked among the bottom five. This time, out of the 54 students in the class, 39 students actually passed the exam. This improvement is not small.

He was confused when he saw the transcript before. He couldn't believe that this was actually his name. Sometimes he was ranked last, and the best time was fourth from last. Now it is actually 39. Well, if he is last, he is in the dozen. But seeing this ranking was enough to make him dizzy.

Really in my lifetime.

However, this name did not meet the standards set by his aunt and uncle, which means that he will not be able to travel abroad this year?

"I'll take you there, I've got your passport ready!"

Guan He teased.

Wen Feng's eyes instantly brightened.

On the third day after the holiday, the four of them packed up and flew to nearby Japan for vacation. This time it was a free trip. Guanhe had a classmate who was a tour guide. He had met her several times before and asked her to help. I have learned the guide for free travel, and even drew a simple map, as well as detailed transportation guide, etc., which is extremely safe.

Speaking of summer vacation, the three Xie Yang brothers and sisters naturally also took a vacation.

They are not planning to stay at home during this summer vacation. Instead, the three of them, plus Chen Fang and two other classmates, are planning to go to Australia together.

None of the adults in the family are going, but Qin Zhao and his family are currently on vacation in Australia. The Qin family’s house and the two houses Xu Rui bought there are two adjacent buildings in the same area. After passing by, Qin Zhao will pick them up in person and will also send People took them everywhere to play, but Xu Ning was not worried.

Chen Lian and his wife, as well as the parents of the other two children, were not too worried. There was someone to pick them up after they arrived, and the president of Diyi Group also sent someone to accompany them. The whole journey was absolutely safe.

On the way Xie Zheng and his wife sent their three children to the airport, Xu Ning kept telling the three children not to play crazy when they were out.

"Oh Mom, am I that naughty in your heart?"

"It's not naughty." Xu Ning chuckled, "You are young now, have poor self-control, and you are unfamiliar with the place there. Can your father and I not worry if you go out alone? So you and your sister should listen to your brother. ?"

"I know!" Little Lemon nodded obediently.

Xie Yang smiled and said: "Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of them."

"Thank you for your hard work, brother." Xu Ning reached out and patted his son's knee.

When they arrived at the airport, Chen Fang had already been sent over by his parents. The parents of two other classmates were also waiting here, and they kept urging their children.

The children quickly gathered together as soon as they met and talked about some entertainment activities after going abroad.

This time I went to Australia to stay in Xu Rui's villa. After I went there, there was a dedicated person to cook, and there was no need to spend money on food and accommodation. However, everyone still brought an expense, and Xie Yang couldn't spend money on things to do outside. Well, none of their families are short of money. This is a matter of attitude.

After that, they were carried by their parents again and warned before they hurriedly walked to the security check. It was obvious that they didn't want to listen to their parents' nagging.

After boarding the plane more than half an hour later, all the parents said goodbye and left. After that, they just waited at home for a call from their children.

They arrived in Australia at night, and Qin Zhao had already driven someone to the airport in an extended commercial vehicle to wait there.

Xie Yang walked out of the terminal with his younger siblings and classmates, turned on his cell phone, and soon received a text message from his cousin Qin Zhao.

"It just snowed here, please keep warm!"

"..."Why? It's obviously summer?

In hindsight, they realized that it was summer at home, but Australia is located in the southern hemisphere, and it was winter here at this time!

what to do? No winter clothes!

When Xie Yang said this, several people were stunned!

"We brought winter clothes!" Xie Yang looked at the three of them like idiots, "Where did you learn geography in junior high school?"

The three of them suddenly cried out, "What should I do?"

"What else can we do? Buy it quickly. It's not like there are no stores here at the airport!" Chen Fang said to Xie Yang, "Let's talk to Uncle Qin first. Let's buy some winter clothes and wear them before going out."

Xie Yang dialed Qin Zhao's number and had a brief chat with him. Then the group of people went to a specialty store at the airport and each selected a few sets of winter clothes. They were all stupid kids with a lot of money. When they saw the price, they swiped their cards. When I bought it, I didn’t feel any distress or hesitation at all, and each item cost at least several thousand yuan.

After everyone put on their winter clothes and walked out of the store, Xie Yang said, "Specially pick expensive ones?"

"It's not expensive, affordable!"

"……"I go!
