Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 420: The 80s' 'Five Grains of Harvest' 5

Gu Xilin took a long puff of his cigarette. "Have you decided on the major you want to study? I heard that computer science is the most popular major in recent years. It is the main direction of future development. Your mother and I are not well educated, so we can't give you any useful advice in this regard. You have to figure it out yourself."

As Gu Xilin spoke, smoke rings overflowed little by little, blurring the old father's face.

Computers! How could she, who had only touched a computer in high school, compete with the kids in big cities who had been exposed to computers since elementary school?

Besides, she is not good at computers.

Seeing that Gu Li was silent, Comrade Zhang Yuhua spoke up immediately, "I think, Third Brother, you and Yu Bo should learn to calculate. Yu Bo's uncle is a worldly-wise man, and the major he chose for Yu Bo must be correct."

Comrade Zhang Yuhua felt that although she could not read or write, she had a flexible mind. For questions that she could not answer herself, she could copy the answers from others on the test papers.

Gu Li smiled. Thanks to Comrade Zhang Yuhua's habit of having a clear use for every penny, she seemed to be naturally more sensitive to numbers than others.

She does want to major in finance.

But it is not the kind of abacus that Comrade Zhang Yuhua mentioned.

Huang Haiyang, who returned to Shanghai to take the college entrance examination more than a month ago, analyzed the economic development prospects for the next five to ten years for Gu Li in advance. He also searched for suitable colleges and universities for her reference based on her scores in regular mock exams.

It must be said that after more than two years of getting along, Huang Haiyang already knows her very well.

A lot happened this summer.

Gu Li performed well in the college entrance examination. She applied to Jinan University in Guangdong Province based on her score and determined her future development direction.

During the two months of summer vacation, Gu Li was not idle. She worked as a summer intern with Gu Yun in a newly opened restaurant in the county town.

Gu Yun should have graduated and started working this year like Gu Yubo, but as a graduate of a medical school, she didn't want to stay in the village clinic, where she would have to spend all day either giving IVs to old men and women or giving vaccinations to children. The little money she earned was not even as much as her mother earned moving bricks in the brick factory.

Nowadays, people, no matter they are educated or skilled, are rushing to the city, to the big cities. But she, after studying for so many years, chose to go back to the village.

For the first time, Gu Yun rebelled against her father's decision and found a job in the city.

This restaurant was located on a street not far from the medical school. It was owned by the family of Gu Yun's medical school classmate. They offered her and Gu Li a very good salary, and they could earn 480 yuan a month if they worked full time.

Even though she had to work ten hours a day and was too tired to ride a bike when she got home at night, Gu Li still felt it was worth it.

After graduation, Gu Yubo was introduced by her uncle to work as an accounting apprentice in a large factory in the city. She lived and ate in the factory and only went home on Sundays.

After Gu Min got into trouble, Gu Yinfeng quit her job at the teahouse and found another job in a pharmacy in the city.

She also has a boyfriend in the city.

Before the parents of both sides had even met each other, Gu Yinfeng moved in with her boyfriend's family.

When Yinfeng's mother found out, she disregarded her daughter's dignity and scolded everyone in the village, letting them know how unselfish her daughter was and how she was trying to sneak into other people's homes.

The villagers advised her not to take it too seriously, saying that Yinfeng was going to marry into the city anyway.

Unexpectedly, Yinfeng's mother scolded even more fiercely, saying that the man's family was extremely poor and they just rented a storefront in the city to do car repair business, so they were not real city people.

This is not the most annoying thing.

Perhaps affected by Yinfeng's mother's frequent cursing, Yinfeng's boyfriend had three fingers broken due to improper use of the machine at work.

The most critical right hand.

Only the little finger and ring finger are left on the right hand.

When Yinfeng's mother heard the news, she grabbed the old ox Gu Weibing, rode a tricycle, rushed to the man's house and made a big fuss, and dragged Gu Yinfeng back.

Gu Yinfeng, who was escorted back, smashed many things in the house and declared that she would marry Zheng Lei even if he lost his entire arm.

After beating her mother for the first time, Gu Yinfeng packed her clothes and ran out of the house amid her mother's curses. She returned to her boyfriend without hesitation and took on the task of taking care of him.

Gu Dandan, who has repeated a year, is now going to be a senior in the second half of the year. Her parents have specially hired a teacher to tutor her, and are very busy.

But Gu Min still didn't go home.

Because of his sister, Gu Jie has lost his former mischievousness and doesn't play with his friends in the village anymore. He looks cold and gloomy to everyone he meets.

He's becoming more and more like his father.

However, Gu Min's family's new residential land has been approved, and her new house will be built next to Gu Yinfeng's house, and the foundation has been laid.

The villagers have often joked that the house owned by Gu Jin was probably bought with the money Gu Min earned from selling her body.

After talking so much, Gu Jin didn't care anymore and spent every day wandering around the new house.

Gu Jie, on the other hand, was furious when someone made fun of him for his sister earning money to marry him.

Gu Jie talked a lot, saying that his sister was not an illiterate lady outside, but was following her boss to work on a project in another place.

He also said that the Walkman and MP3 players at home were all foreign products from Hong Kong. If his sister had not been working on a project outside, how could she have bought those things?

Children don't quite understand the adult world and think that they can clear up rumors by proving their innocence. On the contrary, this gives others more topics for speculation and gossip.

Anyone with a discerning eye could immediately guess a certain fact.

So, after Gu Min worked as a hostess in the dance hall, word spread in the village that Gu Jin's eldest daughter, Gu Min, was working as a mistress for a big boss.

This is even more shameful than being a prostitute.

Mistress, isn't this destroying other people's marriages?

Gu Jie couldn't stand the accusations and suspicions of the villagers, so he packed his bags and went to work in other places after graduating from junior high school.

At the end of September, my second sister Gu Gui brought her boyfriend back to meet our parents.

"Hey, Xiao Li, you're here so why did you bring so many things? It's too expensive. You can take these things back later. How can Auntie take your things?"

"Of course, Auntie, of course." Li Qiuguang smiled. "It's my first time here and I don't know what Auntie likes, so I just picked out some and bought some."

My future brother-in-law was indeed very generous. The gifts he brought were so many that he couldn't hold them all with both hands. He was very different from the brother-in-law of a city dweller.

It was the first time that Gu Li saw Comrade Zhang Yuhua speaking in a friendly manner. She couldn't help but look at him a few more times in curiosity, which earned her a few roll of the eyes from Comrade Zhang Yuhua.

"Behave yourself. What are you looking at? Don't you have any sense of humor? Go and get them some water!"

Gu Li did as she was told.
