Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Not paying back?
The power of role models that happen around you is always intuitive and powerful.
With Yang Jiao as an example, even Lin Hui, who studied as a side business, also calmed down a lot. When she was at school, she also behaved a lot better, and stopped going to the corridor to perform the scene with the third-year boy, 'Yingying Yishuijian, Maimai Bude Yu'.
Oh, by the way, she has recently met a new boy.
If Lin Hui is like this, Huang Jingping doesn't even need to be mentioned. The few plants that sprouted quietly in the spring have become listless in this cold winter. With a little more discipline from parents and teachers, they will wither completely and then disappear.
But even she herself doesn't know that after all, a few seeds have remained, buried deep in the soil. Perhaps next spring, when the conditions are right, they will stubbornly show their heads again.
Such things are beyond human control.
In any case, in the next few days, everyone put aside all distractions and studied under the guidance of the teacher, preparing for the upcoming final exam.
Feng Yiping was not unaware of the feelings that Huang Jingping inadvertently or deliberately let slip. In this regard, although he was not an expert, he was by no means a novice.
When he was with Huang Jingping, he saw her unconsciously imitating some of his actions. For example, when he smiled, she smiled too; when he rested his hand on his chin, she did the same; when he ran his hand through the back of his head, she did the same...
And when he spoke, she would always look at him with sparkling eyes. Feng Yiping knew that something was coming.
But he didn't dare to touch it!
If he were still that ignorant teenager, he could do whatever he wanted in the face of all this, but now he is not! So, he can only dodge.
The most beautiful and sincere feelings of a young girl in the bloom of youth are really priceless. He doesn't know how to face it, and he doesn't want to hurt it even more. Besides, there is also Zhang Yan in the neighbouring county!
Since the birth of mankind, love has been sung and sung. As for what love is, there is a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people, and there is also a thousand loves in a thousand people.
However, Feng Yiping feels that whether they are thinkers or literary giants, the love they discuss is a false proposition, or rather, what they discuss is only the love of adults.
And the most true and pure love should be the first time it blossoms in everyone's heart. It may be simply liking the other person's appearance, or it may be an unintentional word or action that makes your heart flutter...
There can be many different reasons, but there is only one result: you fall in love with the other person, and you don't necessarily understand why. You just feel sweet when you think of the other person, and you feel happy when you see them.
As for growing up and falling in love, getting married, and starting a family, most people, to a greater or lesser extent, inevitably have some considerations or calculations. Although this is a very necessary and mature approach, it is still not as good as the sweetness of the first time you fell in love.
In short, including Feng Yiping, he has no mind to think about these things now. They have already studied a quarter of the junior high school third-year curriculum, and he is not as relaxed as before. At this time, going over the first semester of the second year with the teacher will make his foundation more solid.
Even students who have long known that they will definitely not get into high school and who usually don't work hard want to make the numbers on their report cards look better. Because with the end of this semester, the Spring Festival will soon arrive, and the traditional Spring Festival is also a time when adults and children compete in various ways. Everyone hopes that when the New Year comes, their parents can proudly show off their report cards to their relatives and friends, and not feel inferior because of it.
So at this most stressful time, it is actually the teachers who have the easiest time. Without their emphasis and supervision, the students have wound themselves up and are working at full capacity.
All their hard work is for the three days of the exam, and once those three days are over, everyone breathes a sigh of relief.
Oh, the third graders aren't done yet, they still have to stay in school and study until the day before the New Year's Eve holiday.
After only three days at his grandparents' house, Feng Yiping set off alone for the provincial capital.
The first store was doing well, he had some money in his pocket, and the preparations for the second store at home were underway. Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, and there was still more than half a month before the New Year, so he had to go and take a look.
Lao Cai's furniture factory has finally opened a store on the bustling Renmin Road, so Cai Hong naturally went there. This time of year is usually the peak season. There are endless stream of people getting married, moving to new homes in the coming year, and with extra money in their pockets, they are ready to buy some furniture for the New Year.
Especially on weekends, she is so busy that she has to run to the bathroom. Together with two other young women, they work non-stop to serve the customers who come to the store.
At lunchtime, after sending away the last customers in the store, they were about to take a few bites at the bar when someone else walked in through the door. She stood up as usual, but before she could swallow the mouthful of rice, she looked up and saw it was her father. 'Dad, why are you here? Have you eaten?'
'No, I was just in the neighbourhood and thought I'd check in. Why are you eating this?' Lao Cai looked at the plates of fried rice and bowl of tomato and egg soup on the table.
'Oh, Dad, don't worry about it. It's good to have something to eat. I'll be busy again in a while. Do you want some?'
Seeing his daughter like this, Lao Cai was very happy. At the factory, she was not this positive. She would escape whenever she could. Feng Yiping was right: a person can only perform well in the right position.
'Come home early tonight and tell Yiliang to come home with you.'
'Oh, okay,' she said, and while she was talking, someone else came in through the door. A young girl quickly put down her spoon, got up and went to greet them.
It wasn't until after 8:00 p.m. that Mei Yiliang arrived home with Cai Hong. Everyone else had already finished eating, except for Cai, who was still waiting for them.
It has only been half a year since Mei Yiliang left the factory, and even Lao Cai feels that he has changed a lot. Unlike when he was at the factory, he now has a sense of vitality. Sitting together, you can feel his enthusiasm.
'Looks like business is good?' Lao Cai helped him pick up a pair of chopsticks.
'Not bad, Master. After renovating the noodle restaurant of my sister-in-law, I took on three more clothing store renovations. Now I'm helping someone with their new home. Once this is done, I have two more waiting in line,' Mei Yiliang said happily.
'Haha, that's great!' Lao Cai was happy for him too. 'So do you have any money left over?' Lao Cai asked. freēwēbnovel.com
'Dad, why are you asking this?' Cai Hong was a little coquettish, thinking that her father was rushing her into marriage!
Mei Yiliang was also a little embarrassed, 'It's over ten thousand yuan in savings.'
'So what are your plans?'
'Dad,' Cai Hong took Mei Yiliang's arm, 'This is what we think. Isn't Yiliang's sister planning to open another store? The storefront has already been found. We are going to pay back their money first, and we can worry about our own things later.' She lowered her head as she spoke.
No girl would be happy to talk about such things!
Mei Yiliang also lowered his head, afraid that his master would scold him. Cai Hong was not young, and it was indeed not a good idea to delay some matters, but now there was a gap in the money situation with his sister and brother-in-law, and he could not just think about himself.
However, what Lao Cai said was completely different from what they had been thinking.
'Yes, I know, which is why I asked you to come here to talk about this. I've been thinking about it for a few days, and you don't need to pay back the money yet,' Lao Cai said.
