Chapter 847 The top-notch scheming stepsister (33)
As soon as Xu Yin returned to school, she heard from Qian Mingyue that the scholarship list for the previous school year had been announced.
“Yin Yin, you have been ranked first in both the country and the school.”
Xu Yin nodded, the counselor had already sent a message to tell her.
"Don't you have one too, Mingyue?" Zhao Wenyi poked her head out from the bed curtain and asked with a smile, "When are you going to invite us to dinner?"
"Any time!" Qian Mingyue responded readily, and she was promoted to the second class of the school.
"But can we discuss it? I bought a new mobile phone at the beginning of school. Living expenses are a bit tight this semester. The scholarship will have to cover my expenses in the next few months. How about we order some stir-fries on the second floor of the Fifth Canteen? ?”
Zhao Wenyi snapped her fingers: "No problem."
Xu Yin thought thoughtfully: "Then should I invite you too?"
Not surprisingly, she was able to receive at least two scholarships, totaling over 20,000 yuan.
After receiving a scholarship, it is considered campus culture to treat roommates to dinner. As someone who has been there several times, she understands!
“Oh, you’ve already treated us to dinner.”
On the first weekend of school, I went to her small restaurant to have a meal.
I wanted to do AA, but it turned out that Xu Yin was the one to treat me.
Xu Yin smiled and said: "That's different. The last time was our dormitory team building."
"Why don't you let us AA during team building?" Qian Mingyue said and couldn't help but pinch Xu Yin's face. "By the way, your skin is getting more and more supple. How do you maintain it? I didn't even look at it. It’s up to you to take care of your skin.”
Zhao Wenyi joked: "Are you falling in love behind our backs? It is said that women in love are particularly beautiful."
"Who? Who is in love?" Zhou Shiwen, who was in the opposite dormitory, poked his head in and asked, "Xu Yin is in love? With whom? Is he from the sports academy? No wonder you are talking about treating guests to dinner, you must invite them! Xu Yin , I am your matchmaker after all, how can I be invited to treat you?"
…”
Although it was later explained that they were not in love at all, Zhou Shiwen still followed the four of them to have a meal.
"I don't eat for free. I got a third-class meal. If you treat me to a meal, I'll treat you to milk tea."
She was lucky. She copied Xu Yin's notes before the exam, got a few big questions right, and won a third-class scholarship.
Milk tea for four people totaled about 180 yuan, which meant she had to pay for her own meal.
On Saturday morning, on the way to the restaurant, Zhou Shiwen pulled Xu Yin and boasted about the boy from the sports academy: "Really! I won't lie to you! He is very handsome! He is 185cm tall and has abdominal muscles that are not eight or six packs. If you don’t believe me, I’ll push his WeChat account to you, and you can look at his fitness photos in his circle of friends… If I didn’t have a boyfriend, I wouldn’t be willing to introduce him to you.”
Xu Yin smiled slightly and shook her head.
Qian Mingyue rolled her eyes: "What's the use of being handsome! The key is to be reliable. The boys in the sports academy are all scumbags..."
“Mingyue, you are looking at people through colored glasses. Where are the scumbags? You can’t deny the whole pot of porridge just because of a piece of mouse droppings!”
“What’s going on? You still want to drink porridge mixed with rat droppings?”
…”
Zhou Shiwen choked for a moment and wanted to give himself a slap in the face. What a bad metaphor!
“No, I mean…”
"Okay." Xu Yin interrupted her, "I have no intention of falling in love in college."
"It's better to have fun studying!" Chen Lu agreed, "Dating is a waste of time and affects study. If you don't like it, you will be heartbroken by the scumbag. If you fail the exam, you have to spend money to retake it. Studying is different. , Not only does it cost nothing but it also makes money, look at our Yin Yin, we have five figures in our account right away, it’s so cool! Hehe!” “Lulu, let’s work hard too! Try to get a scholarship before graduation, it doesn’t matter how long you wait. , let us experience the joy of being a top student."
“Then we’ll start walking to the library tomorrow?”
"Ok, Ok."
Zhou Shiwen: “…”
503 The girl in the dormitory is going crazy!
…
“Hey, Xu Yin, why is there so many people in front of your store? Is business so good today?”
When waiting for the traffic light, Qian Mingyue had the sharpest eyes. As soon as she arrived at the traffic light intersection and before she crossed the road, she saw the entrance of the Xu Family Restaurant diagonally opposite, surrounded by people three times inside and three outside.
Xu Yin frowned.
Although they were at a distance, she looked at those people, not like guests waiting for a table, but more like people joining in the fun.
What happened in the restaurant?
“You guys take your time, I’ll go take a look first.”
As soon as the light turned green, she quickly crossed the street and ran to her restaurant.
Qian Mingyue and the others looked at each other and quickened their pace.
Seeing that there were more and more people watching, Zhou Meiying spoke more enthusiastically: "Weidong, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about our daughter! Yin Yin..."
“Are you done yet?”
Dad Xu put down the teapot in his hand heavily and looked at his ex-wife with eyes as cold as arrows.
He originally didn't want to talk to her. After so many years of divorce, someone he had never contacted once suddenly showed up and said he wanted to remarry him. Why did he think he would agree?
He refused immediately and coldly, thinking that she would ask for trouble and leave, but he didn't expect that not only would she not leave, but she would also block the door of the store, as if she would keep standing if he disagreed.
Fortunately, it was not lunch time yet, so there were not many customers in the store, but there were quite a few people coming and going at the door. Seeing her wiping tears while talking, he stopped to help her and watch the excitement.
Zhou Meiying became even more energetic because of this, pouring out tears and tears about how she had missed her daughter over the years.
It's okay that she didn't mention her daughter. When she mentioned it, Xu's father was filled with anger: She was the one who divorced and didn't want children, and she was the one who ignored her daughter for so many years. How thick-skinned is she to tell such a lie?
Dad Xu was about to get angry when he heard his daughter’s voice—
"Madam, you are hindering our store's business. Please leave. Otherwise, I will call the police." Xu Yin squeezed into the crowd and said coldly.
“You...Yin Yin?”
When Zhou Meiying saw Xu Yin, her eyes were a little dazed, as if she saw herself when she was young.
She was so beautiful back then, so there were many people pursuing her. They picked here and there and finally chose Xu Weidong. Firstly, he had good features and a tall figure. Secondly, his father was a carpenter. At that time, the carpenter contractor made a lot of money. The Xu family He was the first family in the village to build a three-story house.
Unexpectedly, less than two years after getting married, my father-in-law got up early and drove a long way to make furniture for a family. The road was slippery on a rainy day, so he took his apprentice on his bicycle and fell down the mountain. The father-in-law died on the spot, and his apprentice fell into a paraplegic state.
The disciple's family pursued the Xu family for explanation, so Xu Weidong used his family savings to treat the other party's illness. As a result, he owed a lot of debt and had to go out to work.
At that time, she was not yet twenty-five, the age when flowers were in full bloom. How could she endure the loneliness when a man was not at home? After a while, she fell in love with the bachelor at the gambling table... But how can you blame her?
Zhou Meiying still doesn’t feel that she is at fault. She can only blame the old Xu family for their bad luck.
