The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

"Sister, what are you talking about? When did I ever promise you that I would be able to go to college?"

There was a subtle flicker in Gu Tingting's denial, and she tried to squeeze out an aggrieved expression on her face, "I was not sure about my grades, so I was anxiously waiting for the admission letter. If there is no news, it means I didn't pass the exam. Do you think I will feel good about it?"

"Stop making excuses. With your grades, do you still want to dream of going to college?"

Gu Xiaoling's voice trembled with anger. "You told me all day that you were fine. Even if you had no hope, you were sure that Zhou Qifeng would pass the exam. So you took advantage of this and ordered this and that. You even pretended to be sick so that I would give you my chance. You were afraid that if you really passed the exam, you would be reluctant to leave everything here, right?"

"I never promised that I would be admitted," Gu Tingting raised her eyebrows slightly, with a faint smile on her lips, and retorted, "Besides, sister, didn't you volunteer to help with those things? You said it yourself, we sisters should be like vines, entwined, leaning on each other, and moving forward together."

"Support a leader..."

Gu Xiaoling's chest rose and fell, and a nameless anger rushed to her head, but she changed her mind and counted the past. Gu Tingting had never clearly promised that the two of them would definitely be able to enter the university. It was just that she was infected by her seemingly inadvertent confidence and fell into it unconsciously! At that moment, Gu Xiaoling felt as if her heart was pierced by a needle, and bitterness and unwillingness intertwined, "You... black-hearted."

"Sister, why are you so angry?" Gu Tingting interrupted Gu Xiaoling's unfinished words in a pitiful tone, with tears in her eyes. "Could it be that the sisterly affection you mentioned is all a false appearance? Is it because you saw that I have a chance to enter university that you started to deliberately get close to me and have some ulterior motive?"

"you……"

Gu Xiaoling's words got stuck in her throat and she couldn't find the right words to respond for a moment.

"Sister, there are so many eyes watching us. Wouldn't it be better if we could solve any problems in private?"

Gu Tingting suddenly came closer, lowered her voice, and subtly gave the crowd a subtle look, which was full of warnings, "Otherwise, your proud image will be greatly reduced in front of everyone."

Gu Xiaoling turned her head and found that there were many curious onlookers gathered around. There was curiosity and expectation in their eyes, as if they were all waiting for a good show to begin.

At this moment, Gu Xiaoling suddenly realized that Gu Tingting was so fearless because she knew for sure that she would not fall out with her in public.

Gu Tingting's scheming and clever methods are truly amazing.

Although Gu Tingting guessed most of it correctly, outsiders might be able to guess some of Gu Xiaoling's thoughts, but they would never know the whole picture.

Despite this, Gu Xiaoling still maintained her composure on the surface. After all, she still needed to maintain her reputation in this land in the days to come.

"Okay, let's talk about it in private," Gu Xiaoling forced herself to suppress the anger in her chest. Her eyes were like ice, staring sharply at Gu Tingting. That look seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, cold and ruthless.

Playing tricks on her?

Gu Xiaoling swore secretly in her heart, just wait and see, I will make you regret it!

Their eyes met and sparks flew.

Gu Tingting remained calm, her eyes flashing with the tenacity and indifference gained from years of experience.

After years of hardships, the ups and downs and setbacks on the road to the imperial examination have made her fearless. Anyone who dares to challenge her must be prepared to pay the price.

Gu Xiaoling flicked her sleeves and left alone, leaving behind a resolute back.

Gu Tingting was about to close the door quietly, ignoring the increasing number of curious people gathering outside the door, when her eyes inadvertently swept across the figures of Xie Yi and Xu Xiufang in the crowd, as well as the carriage behind them that was piled high with luggage.

She quickly concealed her inner jealousy and resentment, gently closed the door, and seeing that there was still a slight gap between the doors, she hurriedly found a thick wooden board to hold the door tightly shut, completely isolating herself from the curious eyes outside.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and after the noise, everything returned to tranquility.

Liu Ying smacked her lips, looking unsatisfied, and complained, "It's really disappointing that it ended like this!"

Xu Xiufang, however, knew clearly in her mind that the dispute between the Jiang sisters was far from over and that there would probably be more troubles waiting for them in the future.

But to her, those troubles were just someone else's story.

After the noise died down, Xu Xiufang and her group prepared to embark on their journey.

"Okay, it's time for us to set off."

"Leaving now?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ying quickly took out a few steaming cakes from her bosom and said sincerely, "You always gave me candy before, but I never thanked you properly. This time, I made a few cakes especially for you. Don't underestimate them, they are made with my heart. I promise that the taste will satisfy you and can help you fill your stomach on the way."

Xu Xiufang took it and felt its heavy weight. She opened the package and saw that it was made of high-quality white flour.

To make such a large bag of pancakes, a lot of high-quality flour must be consumed.

The fact that Liu Ying, who has always been frugal, can be so generous shows how deep his affection is.

Xu Xiufang remained calm on the surface, snorting softly, "You still have some conscience."

In the past, Liu Ying would have refuted without giving in, but today she surprisingly did not argue. Instead, she showed some reluctance on her face, "Remember to come back often. I will miss you."

Xu Xiufang didn't want to make the atmosphere of parting too heavy, so she deliberately joked: "Do you miss me, or do you miss the candy I gave you?"

When Liu Ying asked this question, she choked up for a moment and felt complicated.

Xu Xiufang, this unromantic guy!

"OK OK."

Xu Xiufang took out a handful of colorful candies from her pocket, stuffed them into Liu Ying's hands, and said seriously, "Take care of yourself."

Liu Ying pinched the candy, and a bright smile instantly appeared on her face. "You too, we all need to live well."

Xu Xiufang could only smile helplessly at her reaction.

As the time of departure arrived, Xie Yi sat on the front seat of the ox cart and held the reins firmly. Xu Xiufang and the children sat comfortably in the back carriage filled with luggage. Even Xiaole lay down obediently in it, and went with them to an unknown journey.

Mother Xie and the others stood at the entrance of the village, watching the ox cart gradually disappear at the end of their sight until it became a small dot in the distance...

……

After arriving at the bustling city, the family of six headed straight for the majestic hospital with anxious yet hopeful feelings.

The neon lights of the city flicker in their eyes, reflecting their infinite longing for future life.

After finding a hotel near the hospital, they packed their luggage with ease, as if they had found a temporary harbor in an unfamiliar environment, preparing to welcome the important moment that was about to come.
