343 Getting Better and Better

Duan Mei looked at Yu Yan in relief and said, “Good child, you care so much about us. We can’t count on Yu Bing at home. Fortunately, the heavens sent you back to us.”

At this moment, Mr. Yu also echoed, “Yu Yan, with you joining the family, things will definitely get better and better in the future. Our family will work hard together!”

When Yu Yan heard this, she felt that all her contributions were noticed by her family and that she was about to surpass Yu Bing. She was secretly happy and decided to settle the remaining 50 yuan. She couldn’t let her father borrow money, since she had to protect the Yu family’s reputation. This way, her status in the Yu family would definitely surpass Yu Bing’s!

However, Yu Yan wasn’t in a hurry to tell her parents this. After all, this was only her plan, and she hadn’t carried it out yet. Yu Yan hoped to give them a surprise.

After Mr. Yu and Duan Mei personally sent Yu Yan back to the room, they returned to the bedroom. As soon as the door closed, their faces immediately fell.

Mr. Yu frowned and asked, “What should I do? Do I really have to ask for an advance salary from the factory?”

Duan Mei rolled her eyes as she said angrily, “What else can you do? Are you willing to let your son go to the countryside?”

Of course, Mr. Yu couldn’t bear to!

Mr. Yu looked at his wife as he complained, “According to Yu Yan, her adoptive parents are quite well-off. We’re only short of 50 yuan, so why can’t Yu Yan bear to pay? To think you were so confident that you could get enough money from her.”

When Duan Mei saw Mr. Yu’s attitude, she said indignantly, “Didn’t you read her letter? Didn’t you also think that you could definitely get the money from her back then?”

Duan Mei was a little angry as she said, “Is this wretched girl wary of us? She might have money, but she just can’t bear to give it to us.”

Mr. Yu felt that it made sense. The two of them completely ignored the 50 yuan they had just received from Yu Yan and couldn’t wait to start criticizing her.

Because of this, Mr. Yu didn’t send Yu Yan off because he couldn’t free himself at the last minute. Yu Yan didn’t notice that her father was already a little dissatisfied with her. Instead, she believed her father’s excuse and even thoughtfully asked Mr. Yu not to worry about her and to go to work early.

After that, Duan Mei waited for everyone to go to work before secretly bringing Yu Yan out to get a ride.

Before boarding the train, Duan Mei took out a small cloth bag she had made from old clothes and gave it to Yu Yan as a small gift for returning home to reunite with her family.

It wasn’t that Duan Mei specifically made it. It was just that this way, she wouldn’t have to spend a single cent and there was readily available fabric.

However, Yu Yan was very happy and determined that although the Yu family’s gift might be insignificant, the goodwill was deep.

When Yu Yan came, she was carrying a bunch of luggage. When she returned, she traveled light. She had an old set of handmade clothes, and even the clothes in the luggage were gone.

The polyester plaid shirt that Duan Mei had taken a fancy to had already been successfully tricked away from Yu Yan’s hands. The two of them had similar figures, so the clothes didn’t look out of place on Duan Mei.

Because she didn’t successfully get an extra 50 yuan from Yu Yan last night, she couldn’t even be bothered to prepare food for the trip. Her excuse was that the food wouldn’t be fresh anymore after being left out for too long and that she was worried that Yu Yan would have diarrhea after eating it.

Yu Yan returned to He Mountain Village after that.

During this week, Yu Bing began to force Xiao Sheng to catch up on his learning progress.

Because Xiao Sheng had not even graduated from junior high school, his level of knowledge had only reached the third year of junior high school. Moreover, as there was no exam, Yu Bing could only make up questions for Xiao Sheng according to his level and check his mastery of knowledge points.

Yu Bing hoped that Xiao Sheng would quickly complete the junior high school curriculum and register for the town’s junior high school. Then, she would pull strings and get the school to give him the graduation examination questions. After he passed, he could get his graduation certificate.

The high school curriculum was generally more difficult, so Yu Bing was worried that Xiao Sheng would spend too much time on it.

The first round of examinations after the college entrance examination was the easiest. The more time passed, the harder the examination would be, so Yu Bing hoped that Xiao Sheng could seize the opportunity.

Yu Bing would go to the Xiao family’s house to tutor Xiao Sheng every night after running. Even Xiao Li’s class, which used to be twice a week, became three times a week. Xiao Lin had always been lax in his studies and slacked off with his friends all day long. This time, he wasn’t let off. They all joined the studying camp.

Jiang Chun felt that Yu Bing trusted the rumors too much, but with her trust in Yu Bing, Jiang Chun still chose to study diligently and review the high school textbooks.

The two small courtyards at the foot of the mountain were filled with a rich learning atmosphere.
