Chapter 830: Find an Excuse (1)
As soon as Shen Yujun closed the door, Zi Xin let out a long sigh and lay on the table.
College entrance examination! College entrance examination! If she couldn’t take the exam in one year, she could take the exam in two years. It seemed that her mother really wanted her to keep taking the exam!
Zi Xin was frustrated.
She had already gone through the college entrance examination once. She did not want to go through it again. During the previous college entrance examination, she thought that even if her body was fine and there were no accidents, she might not have been able to pass the exam.
She was not cut out for studying.
To her, she was more interested in earning money.
Zi Xin listened to Su Hanyan’s incessant English on the radio. She didn’t have any desire to listen to her anymore. So, she decisively turned off the radio, put her English book into her bag, and walked out.
In the living room.
Ji Sihai was reading the newspaper while Shen Yujun was peeling fruits for her husband.
“Dad, Mom! I’m going out for a while.” Zi Xin said.
Ji Sihai raised his head and glanced at his obedient daughter. Seeing that she was about to leave with her school bag, he asked, “”Xinxin, where are you going?”
“Dad, I heard that the foreign language university has opened an English corner. My oral English isn’t very good, so I want to go there and practice with others. Although my brother’s English is very good, he also has his own job, so I can’t always pester him. I have to think of a way to improve myself!” Zi Xin opened her bag and took out a thick English dictionary. ” Dad, Mom, look! I heard the host on the radio say that if you encounter a vocabulary you don’t know, you should always look it up in the dictionary! This way, you can accumulate a lot of words in your daily life.”
“Yes, yes.” Ji Sihai nodded repeatedly, expressing his gratification and affirmation for his daughter’s hard work. ” That supporter’s English is very good. It’s very authentic. Even your brother is praising her! I saw that the teachers at the University of Foreign Studies are also recommending students to listen to her broadcast. You can listen more when you’re free.”
“Got it, Dad! You and mom don’t have to worry about my school exams. I must become as outstanding as brother, and even more outstanding than brother! I have the confidence!” Zi Xin clenched her fists and put on a determined look.
“Good, good, good. I believe in my Xin Xin!” Ji Sihai said in a relaxed mood.
“Then I’ll be leaving!”
“Wait a minute.” Shen Yujun called out to her, then turned around and went back to her room to get a wad of money. She stuffed it into Zi Xin’s hands and said, ” Take this money and spend it. What books do you like? Just buy some exercise books and the like. ” If there’s no bus when you come back late, you can use money to call a taxi back!”
“Mom, how can I keep spending your money? There’s no need. I still have ten yuan saved up from the money you gave me last time! I don’t drink soda, eat ice cream, or buy anything else. I think I’ve used a lot of this money. It won’t be a problem for me to spend it until the new year!” Zi Xin tried her best to show her sensible side.
When Ji Si Hai heard this, his heart ached even more for his daughter. He said to his wife, Chen Yujun,”We don’t lack money. Give your daughter more money! She had suffered a lot over the years. Since she had returned to the city, she had to integrate into the life here. You can’t even bear to drink soda on such a hot day. This won’t do!”
“Yes.” Shen Yujun stuffed the 50 yuan into Zi Xin’s hands. ” Xinxin, we don’t lack money. You can spend as much money as you want and buy whatever you want! As long as you study hard!”
