Chapter 79 University Admission Notice

Later, the Ma family fell into ruin, leaving only Ma Tianyao and his sister to depend on each other, so they became even more close to the Shi family. Her sisters and Shi Xiaoxiao were like their own sisters.

I often visit Shi’s family and have reunion dinners during festivals. In other words, Shi Xiaoxiao’s grandfather is Ma Tianyao’s biological grandfather. Even if he is not related by blood, it will not affect anything.

At this time, Ma Tianyao threw the blame to her sister. The old man finally disappeared, and he threw away the crutch and finally showed a smile.

"Haha, it turns out that this girl Tianrou is doing it. By the way, why didn't she come with you?"

As soon as the old man smiled, the atmosphere at home became much more relaxed in an instant, especially Shi Aiguo, who breathed a sigh of relief and got up from the ground and sat on the sofa.

Ma Tianyao walked to the corner skillfully, took out a tea pot from the cabinet, pinched out a tea leaf and threw it into the old man's purple clay pot, then took some boiling water, put it in front of the old man, and spoke with a smile.

"Haha, grandpa, you forgot? Today is September 2nd, and Tianrou is starting school."

Seeing Ma Tianyao so sensible, the old man liked him all over his eyes. He smiled and took the teapot, took a sip, and uttered.

"Oh, no wonder, by the way, I heard you were admitted to Peking University?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the room was coughing awkwardly, and a hint of loneliness flashed across Ma Tianyao's face. From childhood to adulthood, she cried after her parents' accidental death, and then this happened.

When the college admission notice came, she received it immediately. Then, she knelt in front of her parents' grave and burned the admission notice. She cried heartbroken that day.

Nothing else, it was all because of poverty. Even if the village offered to support her, and even if the Shi family asked to help her, she didn't want to rely on others to give alms for four years in college.

Can someone help you, can you help you for four years? Can someone help you with tuition and living expenses? Can someone help you, but what about your sister? She is only 12 years old, what should she do?

After receiving the notice, she asked herself these questions every day, but the answer was vague.

Going to Beijing is the imperial capital. Not to mention the tuition fee of tens of thousands of yuan a year, even the living expenses will be over 10,000 yuan a year. In four years, the cost will be at least 100,000 yuan. Even if the Shi family takes out this money, it will be distressing enough. Nothing is counted as she herself, she can’t afford the ticket.

"well……"

The old man sighed long, his eyes showing pity and anger.

"You, just like after a child, always feel that we help you, you owe us something. Actually... our Shi family is just owing your grandfather's kindness. Look at you, why don't you discuss it with me for such a big thing in school? You're lying to me without hiding it! Do you know how difficult it is to take the exam at Peking University? You're kidding it for your future!!!"

After sighing, the old man took another sip of tea and spoke lightly but undeniable.

"Tianyao, I have decided to ask you where you go to Beijing first to see if you can get through the registration. If you can't get through, I have also called your original high school principal. They welcome you to repeat the school. You don't have any tuition fees, and you will definitely be able to pass the exam next year..."

"Grandpa, I don't want to go to school anymore..."

Bang!

The old man threw the purple clay teapot!

"What are you talking nonsense about? What do you want to do if you don't go to school? Go and pick up rags like this one who is not promising?"

The old man pointed at Shi Xiaoxiao who was standing in the corner of the wall. Shi Xiaoxiao was innocently caught in the gun, pouted and gave the old man a blank look, and then faced his head to the wall again.

Ma Tianyao was startled by the old man's nameless fire. In her memory, this was the first time the old man scolded her.

He looked at the old man in surprise and wanted to explain a few words. The old man sighed again, and spoke in an educational tone.

"Tianyao, I know that the consumption in Beijing is high, and I know the situation at your family, but don't be afraid. When your parents entered the mountain, I would treat you as their granddaughter. Besides... Xiaoxiao is already useless..."

Shi Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at her grandfather resentfully, thinking that I was probably picking it up, right? Although I am not good at studying, I am well developed. In the future, I will find a wealthy husband and live a happy life.

"Tianyao, grandpa lived so big and experienced too much. To be honest, if you don't have education, it means you have no future. Do you want to grow up and marry into a nearby village? Every day, face the loess and backs, have children, and do farm work?"

"In no mood!"

"That's right! I..."

"Grandpa, listen to me..."

Ma Tianyao stopped the old man from continuing to speak, his eyes turned red, and then he tried hard to squeeze out a smile and spoke lightly.

"Grandpa, I have never liked to owe others kindness since I was a child. I used to support my sister, but I had no choice, but now I am an adult and have the ability to support myself and my sister. Since this is the case, why should I owe others four years of kindness to gain an unknown future?"

Bang!

The old man dropped the phone that Shi Aiguo picked up again. This time he couldn't hold on and finally died.

"You are nonsense. Why is going to college an unknown future? Is it worse than selling white porridge in a stall in town? You said, what is the promising prospect of selling white porridge? Can you make 50 yuan a day?"

"able……"

"Can you make 100 yuan?"

"able……"

The old man was so excited that he was a little incoherent.

"Okay, even if you have a good business during the summer vacation, can you make 500 yuan a day?"

He thought he could ask Ma Tianyao now and then he could take the opportunity to tell a lot of life principles, but unexpectedly, Ma Tianyao still returned...

"able……"

This time, even Shi Aiguo and Sun Caixia were confused, and Sun Caixia leaned over and asked in a low voice.

"Tianyao, you have never lie. Xiaoxiao came back today and praised you to heaven, saying that you sold for 5 yuan a bowl of white porridge?"

"Um!"

"She also said how many pots can you sell a day?"

"Um!"

"She also said you can earn one or two thousand a day?"

"Oh, this is wrong..."

Ma Tianyao smiled and shook her head. The old man finally found a suitable entry, and his tone was gentler and he smiled.

"Haha, I'll just say, how can you make so much money by buying white porridge..."

Before he could finish his words, Ma Tianyao spoke seriously and finished the fight.

"There are fewer short stories. I have at least one or two thousand a day, and I can reach three thousand in more than one..."

The old man's face turned green immediately. He wanted to educate the other party, not to care about small profits, and should pay attention to the future, but it is three thousand a day. Is this still a small profit? After graduating from a postdoctoral fellow, I can't make so much money even if I find a job as a great guy, right?

Do you really want to persuade her to give up her studies and continue to set up a stall in the street to sell white porridge? If her father had a spirit in heaven, he would be afraid of having a heart to talk to him at night?
