ir tied up in a bun behind her head, a faint smile on her face, and holding a plate with two cream cakes inside."Mom!"Wu Lianyi, following the original body's habit, cried out in a choked voice."There..."Really!"

Xing Dayong's face lit up with surprise as he asked.

That way I can also explain to your two younger brothers. Consider this money from the stall as your little sister's tuition fee.

Mr. Xing, the old man, tapped on the table with his pipe bowl and spoke.

"That's definitely fine, I listen to my father. I'll have Cuicui come over tomorrow."

"No rush, let's wait until [younger sister's name] finishes her exams. That way, when she comes back, she'll have a place to stay. Coming over now would disrupt her studies."

Mr. Xing had made up his mind beforehand, so he spoke very clearly.

"Okay, I'll follow father's arrangement."

After that, Xing Dayong didn't even have lunch and pushed his cart back to Fuyu Village.

Ripples smiled and asked Old Xing,

"Dad, did you figure it out"

"Well, instead of letting them keep thinking about it, I might as well arrange things in advance so they give up and don't affect your exam."

Mr. Xing said.

"It's good that Father thinks this way. He can even ask He Cuicui for help and earn some extra money before leaving. This way, Father can also take some time to go back and handle the house and land in the village."

Ripple smiled and said.

"Well, that's what I plan to do. When the time comes, I'll have to trouble you, National Day Big Brother, once again."

"I know, I'll go with you then."

After Xing Dayong brought this good news back, He Cuicui was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. She had already started counting the days on her fingers.

Here, on the ripples side, the college entrance exam finally arrived. The three-day exam went smoothly, without any bizarre incidents along the way. After everyone finished the test, they were called back by Teacher Sun to check answers and estimate scores, which was directly related to their application choices.

Because Rin had already set her goal and her estimated score exceeded last year's admission score for the National Defense University of Technology, she filled out her application list with confidence and waited peacefully for the acceptance letter.

And He Cuicui couldn't wait. The day after Lian Yi finished her exams, she brought a small bag to the county town with Lian Yi's second and third sisters-in-law. This made He Cuicui a little unhappy, but thinking that the stall ultimately belonged to their family, she felt much better.

Before arriving, Xing Dayong repeatedly instructed He Cuicui not to tell his two younger sisters about their purchase of the stall from their parents. He warned that if they found out, it would lead to conflict between them.

He Cuicui also knew this was taking advantage of her own family, so she kept her mouth shut. She didn't leak a single word before the old couple left.

Three people came at once, and Riyan pretended to need space, using that as an excuse to return to the village with Lao Xing. Anyway, with Xing's mother there, she only needed to go out and buy groceries, then just open her mouth and have the three daughters-in-law do everything else. If you want to learn a craft, you have to put in some labor.

When setting up the stall, Mother Xing was only responsible for collecting money. The three sisters-in-law took turns accompanying her every day. Because the college entrance exam was over and school was on vacation, Mother Xing and her three daughters-in-law had been going to set up a stall near the state-owned enterprises in the county town recently.

In the morning, one person is brought in, and at noon, a different person takes over. They claim it's to get acquainted with the customers, so that when they come to sell things themselves, old customers will be more likely to buy from them.

The three of them thought their mother-in-law made sense, and after hearing it, they estimated that the older couple wouldn't come to the county to do business anymore. This way, they would have one less competitor and could take over the old customers accumulated by their parents. So each of them was full of energy.

On the other side, in Fuyuan Village, the father and daughter began preparing to leave after returning home. After all, this was a one-way trip. They sold what they could, packed up their belongings, and waited for the notice.

When the results of the ripple examinations came out, as expected, she was a provincial top scorer. Teacher Sun personally brought the school's rewards to Fuyu Village. Now everyone in the village knows that the Xing family's ancestral grave is smoking, and Ripple will definitely be able to go to college.

All the villagers gathered outside the Xing family courtyard to watch the commotion. Only Li Pozi felt a little uneasy in her heart. She hadn't expected that dead girl to pass the university entrance exam. This was the first female villager to be admitted to university, and her future would be much better than her eldest son's after graduation.

Even Li Pozi, who wasn't particularly well-educated, could tell the difference between a university graduate and a middle school graduate. Her son was only a middle school graduate, but he had achieved what he had through hard work and perseverance, earning it all himself. However, his lack of education was a real disadvantage, something that couldn't be easily overcome in a short time.

Now she had some regrets, feeling that she should have agreed to the marriage at first. But thinking of Lianyi's body, she drew back again. Just when Li Pozi was in a tangled mood, Lianyi went to school and got her admission letter.

She was accepted into the Command and Information Systems Engineering major at National Defense Science and Technology University. The next four years would be dedicated to her studies, and Old Xing had already sold the family's farmland in the village, using the excuse that he needed money to support his youngest daughter's education.

When Elder Xing personally touched the admission notice for ripples, his heart was truly excited. His daughter really gave him face; she said she could pass the exam, and she really passed it. Now he believed even more in what his daughter said.

"Dad, now that the notice has been received, you can rest assured."

"Well, my little sister is still the most promising one."

Mr. Xing looked back and forth at the notice twice before handing it to Lianyi.

"Hurry up and put it away, you can't just throw this away."

"Alright, Dad!"

After taking the notice, Lian Yi said:

"Dad, now we can sell the house. After the house is settled, we'll set off. Once we get there, I'll find a house for you and Mom. There's still a lot to do!"

"Well, I'll go find your National Day Brother right now. It's just that this old house is worth a fortune, and it would be a real shame to sell it."

Old Xing sighed.

"Dad, I've tidied up the bedding and clothes. Let National Day Brother help us send them over. As for the pots, bowls, and utensils, we'll take as many as we can."

Even ripples know that it's hard to leave one's homeland, so they can only try their best to lessen Old Xing's sorrow at leaving.

"I know, you're free to go to the county town and bring your mother back. We still need her to tidy up things at home."

Old Man Xing assigned Ripples a task.

Okay, I'm going now.

The family spent another ten days preparing, Lian Yi bought three train tickets, and the three of them were sent to the train station by their three brothers.

The three of them still didn't know that their father had even sold the house. They only knew that their parents weren't at ease with their daughter leaving and insisted on personally seeing her off. Although they thought it was a waste of money, since it wasn't their own, they didn't say anything.

The three families have been mostly staying in the county town recently, small businesses are starting up, and they need to work hard to make money.

Before, I heard that Xing Dayong took over my father's stall. The second and third brothers were still unhappy about it, but when they learned that Xing Dayong had put in the money, they didn't say anything more.

Xing Dayong would also come to the event, and in front of his two brothers, gave the money to their father, effectively silencing the two.

Finally, Xing Er Yong and Xing San Yong discussed it. The two families combined to open a stall. This way, they would take turns setting up in the morning and afternoon, switching every day. It was fair for both sides. Whoever earned money kept it themselves; they only shared the stall. This way, their family plot wouldn't be lost, and it would be easier for them.

The three Xing brothers all benefited, so they didn't pay much attention to their parents sending them to school and missed the opportunity to stay with their elderly parents.

The ripples carry the elderly couple, experiencing their first ride on a green train, into a new chapter of their lives.ur location.
