"No, no, I’m fine." Xu Nianhua had heard Su Xi ntion this matter at noon, so she had already prepared herself. Thinking the ti was about right, she waited at the door, and sure enough, when she saw them, she warmly invited them inside.
The Su Family’s decor style was simple, elegant, and understated, not the kind that was dazzlingly luxurious. If you only looked at the house, at most you’d think the family was well-off, without feeling uncomfortable.
Everyone inquisitively asked Xu Nianhua about yesterday’s kidnapping incident.
Xu Nianhua briefly recounted it and said, "I was supposed to go to school, but my mom wouldn’t let . So I’m just taking a few days to rest at ho."
"Everyone, have so fruit. The strawberries were just picked, they’re super fresh." Xu Nianhua offered them strawberries to try.
Fei Jiayi, the least reserved, said while eating, "Nianhua, why don’t we go pick the strawberries ourselves? It’s the best to eat them right in the strawberry greenhouse!"
"Jiayi, are you here to visit Nianhua, or are you thinking about the strawberries in the backyard?" Su Xi couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Fei Jiayi loved eating so much, was she really here to visit Xu Nianhua and not just for the strawberry garden?
"Su Xi, can’t I do both?" Fei Jiayi took another strawberry and bit into it. The fresh, sweet taste was delightful.
"Sure."
Xu Nianhua looked at the ti and said, "It’s still early, let’s go pick strawberries, and then have dinner at my place."
"Right, you’re all Nianhua’s classmates, so stay and have dinner at our place today. I’ve already asked soone to prepare it." Jiang Wanru brought out a few more plates of fruit. She was particularly happy about entertaining Xu Nianhua’s classmates.
"Won’t this be too much trouble for Auntie?" Ding Guo, who usually loved to talk, found herself a bit hesitant to speak in front of Jiang Wanru. She looked at Jiang Wanru and then at Xu Nianhua, saying, "Nianhua really resembles Auntie."
"Yes, Nianhua looks like a younger . I’m all old now." Jiang Wanru smiled warmly, without any airs, just like a friendly neighborhood aunt. She said, "Seeing so many of you young girls today makes Auntie feel younger too!"
Jiang Wanru’s words made everyone burst into laughter.
Xu Nianhua, holding Jiang Wanru’s arm, said, "Mom, you’re not old at all. If we stand together, you look like my sister, right?"
"Right."
Fei Jiayi and Su Xi, along with the others, answered in unison.
"Hahaha, you all are just sweet talkers." Jiang Wanru was overjoyed by her daughter’s complint. She laughed and said, "Now go pick so strawberries, I’ll go prepare dinner. Have fun, and if you need anything, just let Nianhua know. Make yourselves at ho!"
"Thank you, Auntie."
Ding Guo and the rest said in unison. When they reached the backyard’s strawberry garden, they were quite amazed. This big strawberry garden, just imagine how many strawberries it could produce!
"Nianhua, no wonder you’ve been bringing strawberries to school all the ti!" Liao Jinling swallowed, she always thought her own family was quite well-off, feeling sowhat superior. But after entering dormitory 302, she gradually realized that money isn’t everything, just having wealth doesn’t make you superior; you also need knowledge.
Gradually, Liao Jinling blended into the dorm life, focusing on her studies, which made her appreciate the allure of learning even more.
But now, Liao Jinling found that her family’s wealth paled in comparison to Nianhua’s!
