Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

From this it can be seen that Wang Xiaohua's thinking pattern has actually completely broken free of his father's generation's influence.

His growth can be said to be extremely rapid.

If this matter were swapped for Wang Zhanggen, he would definitely stand by Li Xiulan's side chattering non-stop, saying this isn't right and that isn't right, all kinds of complaints, just not lifting a hand to help.

Actually even Wang Erhai couldn't help but complain to Li Xiulan several sentences.

Saying she completely didn't need to call him up early in the morning to catch chickens, this one runs away so kill another one, anyway it can't possibly run far, wait until noon when feeding it, it will naturally run back to the flock.

Wang Xiaohua hurriedly stopped his second brother's complaints:

"Second Brother, say a few sentences less, no matter how much you say it's useless, if you feel sleepy you can go back and continue sleeping a while, if you're not sleepy we'll help Mom kill chickens and make breakfast together."

Wang Erhai couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and in the end didn't say anything more.

He also didn't go back to sleep again, but chose to help kill chickens.

With the two brothers helping kill chickens, Li Xiulan could free her hands to go make breakfast.

After killing the chickens well, they still needed to take them to blanch and set, and only then could they take them to worship the gods.

Taking advantage of the blanching time slot, everyone ate breakfast together, after eating breakfast they went to worship the gods without stopping.

This time Wang Xiaohua followed along to worship.

Not because he felt worshiping gods would make them manifest, he leaned more toward the idea that so-called immortals are merely a kind of psychological comfort.

However if this kind of psychological comfort has effect, that also isn't necessarily not a good thing.

The reason he followed along was simply because he purely wanted to finish worshiping quickly, finish and depart, nothing more.

Along the way, Li Xiulan carried the chickens on a shoulder pole, Wang Xiaohua held a plastic bag of firecrackers and incense candles.

This worship required worshiping four places, one is the Temple Contract, two is the Ancestral Hall, three is the Mountain God, four is the family Door God.

Li Xiulan was responsible for offering incense, Wang Xiaohua just followed behind, Li Xiulan told him to light firecrackers, he lit firecrackers.

One round walked down, time passed over an hour.

When they returned home, it was already past nine in the morning.

Hurriedly tidying up a bit, Wang Xiaohua and Wang Erhai were about to depart.

Li Xiulan took out two red envelopes, gave them to Wang Xiaohua and Wang Erhai, implying a smooth journey, smooth and successful.

The money inside the red envelopes wasn't much, just ten yuan, just for good luck, but the necessary procedures couldn't be lacking, this is the belief in the old person's heart.

Additionally Li Xiulan also had Wang Erhai take that rooster that had been worshiped downstairs to eat, Wang Erhai didn't want it, because he was busy to death, where would he have time to cook himself?

However Li Xiulan ultimately still forcibly stuffed it into his trunk.

Departed.

The small sedan slowly started moving.

Li Xiulan followed behind the car, walking all the way out to the highway.

Arriving at the highway side, watching from afar as the small sedan departed.

Wang Xiaohua through the passenger seat rearview mirror, watched the mother standing at the roadside, that hunched and aged body, growing farther and farther, smaller and smaller, heart couldn't help but feel gloomy and sad.

Mother this lifetime, for the sake of the three brothers, can be said to have given everything.

Endurance toward the heartless man, endurance toward poverty, submission to hardship, all the hardship-bearing, was only because there were three children she couldn't let go of.

If she hadn't given birth to so many when young, with her strong-willed personality, she absolutely would not have kept enduring with Wang Zhanggen.

Can only say, everything is fate playing tricks on people.

And as sons, the three brothers, the only thing they can do, is later to repay Mother this nurturing grace.

"Little Brother, you really plan to take Dad and Mom to Beijing to tour during National Day?"

The small sedan drove on the mountain highway, Wang Erhai suddenly asked this one sentence.

Wang Xiaohua said:

"Yes, Mom she hasn't traveled far in her whole life, taking her out to tour, she'll definitely be very happy."

Wang Erhai said:

"National Day happens to coincide with Spring City Garden's opening sales, and I'm the general sales agent for this project, so at that time I'll probably be very busy, no time to go to Beijing together."

Wang Xiaohua said:

"You mind your business, at that time I'll arrange everything properly."

Wang Erhai said again:

"Then you must buy tickets for Dad and Mom in advance, National Day is a travel peak period, if you don't buy tickets in advance you won't be able to buy them, right, do you have enough money? If not I'll give you some from here."

Wang Xiaohua smiled:

"Enough, no need for you to give."

Wang Erhai smiled:

"Almost forgot, you brat now have earned quite a lot of money, scholarship 300,000, Spring City Real Estate endorsement 150,000, tutoring 10,000, just graduated high school ah, earned this much, truly verified that saying: books hold a house of gold, books hold a beauty like jade! At university study hard well, whether our Wang Family can produce a big figure in the future, all depends on you!"

Wang Xiaohua smiling nodded:

"Rest assured, I will definitely study hard."

Wang Erhai sent Wang Xiaohua to Wang Dashan's side in Guangzhou, then hurriedly returned to the county town, he still had a lot of work to be busy with, so sending Wang Erhai to the airport to catch the plane this matter, could only be handed over to Wang Dashan.

Wang Xiaohua's booked plane ticket was for 3 PM afternoon, now it's past 11 AM, still very early.

Wang Dashan brought Wang Xiaohua, and Du Xiaojuan, together to go outside and eat a meal.

Eat the meal, then go to the airport together.

Then the two of them boarded the plane to Beijing together.

Arriving at Beijing International Airport, the time was already past six in the afternoon.

Carrying luggage, took a taxi straight to Tsinghua University.

At this time, quite a few students had already arrived at the university, very lively.

The brothers asked for directions everywhere, and with great difficulty found the School of Chemical Engineering's registration desk; after registering, got campus cards, collected dormitory keys, then went to Zijing Apartment dormitory.

"A prestigious university really is different; this environment, truly beautiful!"

Wang Dashan helped carry luggage; on the way to the dormitory, he looked around everywhere, couldn't help but envy.

Arriving at the dormitory side, it's a four-person room, similar to other universities.

However the dormitory environment is very good; inside the dormitory building, there are also public activity spaces, gym, study rooms, etc.

"This environment is much better than County No. 1 High School's dormitory!"

Wang Dashan's face showed a smile, full of envy.

Wang Dashan helped Wang Xiaohua put the luggage away properly; Wang Xiaohua himself went up to make the bed.

At this moment a roommate arrived.

His parents also came along, brought a lot of luggage, even two bodyguards.

"How is this dormitory so small? Son, if you really can't get used to living here, just go live outside!"

A noblewoman in her forties glanced at the dormitory environment, full of disdain.

And the old man beside her muttered:

"Still Tsinghua, just this environment! Should've known better to let you study abroad instead!"

That roommate wore a displeased face toward his parents:

"Can you two say a few words less? I'm here to study, not on vacation; what does it matter if the dormitory environment is a bit worse?"

"We're just afraid you'll suffer," the roommate's mother replied.

"Stop talking, you two go back."

That roommate seemed very impatient with his parents.

"Alright alright, then we'll leave; if anything happens remember to call us; anyway our home isn't that far from here."

The roommate's father said so.

After the roommate's family members left, that roommate then came over to greet Wang Xiaohua:

"Hello, I'm called Wen Lingyun; what's your name?"

"Wang Xiaohua."

Wen Lingyun hurriedly apologized:

"Just now my parents were like that, made you see a joke; really embarrassed."

Wang Xiaohua hurriedly said: "No problem no problem; they just care about you, didn't affect me at all; no need to apologize to me."

"Classmate, what's your name?" Wen Lingyun turned his head to look at Wang Dashan.

Wang Dashan hurriedly said with a smile:

"I'm Xiaohua's big brother, not your classmate; if I could become your classmate, I'd laugh myself awake."

Wen Lingyun realized:

"So you two are brothers; no wonder you look a bit alike!"

Then he asked Wang Xiaohua again:

"Classmate, how did you get into Tsinghua?"

Before Wang Xiaohua could answer, Wang Dashan said:

"My little brother got in by exam of course; could there be other methods to get in?"

Wen Lingyun however said:

"Of course there are other methods; besides the Gaokao, there are also Strong Foundation Plan, Competition Recommendation, Self-Strengthening Plan, National Special Program, Directed Student, and quite a few channels to enter Tsinghua; I got in through competition, participated in International Chemistry Olympiad national team training, luckily got pretty good grades, and was admitted."

Wang Xiaohua listened, couldn't help but admire:

"Classmate, you're amazing! Please take care of me in the future!"

Wang Xiaohua had also done competitions before; he focused on Mathematics Competition, result was only a national second prize, still a long way from recommendation to Tsinghua or Peking University.

So he knew Competition Recommendation students' ability is much stronger than his Gaokao entry; one could even say he and them are completely not on the same level.
