Chapter 1661: Your Two Daughters Are Truly Amazing; They Both Got Into the City University

~4 min read 787 words

I don't know what the old man said to Shi Tou.

When it was time to eat, Shi Tou came to the table with an air of pride: "Grandpa said to make sure everyone takes good care of me and eats well."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's hands holding their cups trembled.

Fortunately, the drinks and wine hadn't reached their mouths yet, or how could they possibly eat this meal?

After dropping his bomb, Shi Tou pointed at the four-joy meatballs on the table and said, "Mom, I want to eat the meatballs."

But by now, Xiao Mu had not yet finished laughing at her son's earlier words: "Son, wait a moment, I'll go get you a spoon."

After Xiao Mu finished speaking, she got up and ran to the kitchen; only after entering the kitchen did she burst out laughing: her son was truly a talent, even able to remember the words backwards.

Grandpa Xiao raised his hand to rub the tip of his nose and also let out a laugh.

Only then did Shi Tou belatedly look at everyone: "What's wrong with you? Why is everyone laughing?"

Grandpa Xiao served half a meatball into his bowl and handed him the spoon from beside him: "It's New Year, so naturally everyone must be happy. With so much delicious food, everyone is happy, so that's why we're laughing."

Hearing these words, Shi Tou also lifted his little face: "Mm, yes, we must laugh."

After Xiao Mu had laughed enough in the kitchen, she finally sat back down.

During this meal, Shi Tou and Junjun kept making jokes from time to time, but they ate happily.

After the fifth day of the first lunar month, the acceptance letter Xia Qiu had been looking forward to finally arrived.

When Liu Chuxue received the news, she told Aunt Wei a word and then ran back to her maiden home.

Looking at the acceptance letter that read BJ Normal College, Liu Chuxue said, "Sister, you have finally gotten your wish."

Xia Qiu was so excited that tears came to her eyes.

When she graduated from junior high school, the teachers at her school all felt regret for her, but for the sake of her two younger sisters below her, she had to drop out of school and return home to work in the fields.

She originally thought she would never have another chance to study, but who could have foreseen how events would unfold? Not only did her younger sister let her enter the city and become a worker, but now she has also been admitted to the university she loves.

She spread her arms and embraced Liu Chuxue: "Thank you."

Liu Chuxue also embraced her in return: "We are sisters, what is there to thank for? These are the words you once said to me, and I am giving them back to you."

While the two sisters were interacting like this, Chunxiao stood at the doorway watching.

In fact, after learning that her second sister had been admitted to Peking University, she had been praying in her heart that her eldest sister absolutely must not get in; otherwise, if she herself failed to get in at that time, how embarrassing it would be.

Day after day, she herself had been more tormented than her eldest sister; just when she thought her wish would come true, her eldest sister received the acceptance letter she had longed for, and moreover, it was from the normal school her eldest sister had always cherished.

Xiao Mu slapped Chunxiao: "What are you staring at? Hurry up and go bring your grandpa and Aunt Miao back; tell them your eldest sister has also received her acceptance letter."

Xiao Mu did not lower her voice; as soon as she finished speaking, many neighbors came over one after another to offer congratulations: "Lamei, your two daughters are truly amazing; they both got into the university in the city."

"Which school did your eldest daughter get into?"

Xiao Mu did not remember the full name: "Normal College."

Someone who knew a bit more asked: "BJ Normal College?"

Xiao Mu looked at Xia Qiu.

Seeing Xia Qiu nod at her, she said with an air of pride: "Yes, it is BJ Normal College."

A neighbor chimed in: "Normal schools are good; it's just right for a girl to study at a normal school. After graduating and getting a job in the future, there are winter and summer vacations; how wonderful."

Hearing everyone's flattery, the smile on Xiao Mu's face never faded.

At this moment, Grandpa Xiao and Aunt Miao, who had gone out for a walk, received the news and hurried back: "Did she really get in?"
