Sun Chan was stunned, is this a plan too?
"But are they willing?"
"There’s nothing they wouldn’t be willing about; I’ve already spoken to Wang Hu, and they’re fine with it."
Wang Hu, having been married before, didn’t want anything flashy, and Xiao Hong was easygoing and didn’t care about such things, so they quickly agreed to have the weddings together.
Yan Kai wanted sothing a bit more stylish, but Qian Xiaoshuang said, "In our daily lives, we don’t focus on this; in our military family, we must understand the big picture. Otherwise, so many guests in one day at two events would be exhausting and costly." Yan Kai thought about it and agreed, because Wang Hu’s side wasn’t planning to accept gifts, so Yan Kai’s side also decided not to.
Sun Chan clapped her hands with a smile, "That’s great! This way, the money I’ve saved can be put away!"
"Yeah, that’s right, little money-grubber, you’re happy now?" Gu Junming poked her nose.
Sun Chan blushed, "I’m not a money-grubber; that sounds terrible." She had indeed been a bit frugal lately; apart from sending money to her hotown, she saved most of it, and they calculated expenses clearly, even sparing on buying clothes.
Gu Junming wore his uniform year-round, and his clothes were store-bought, while the undergarnts and thermal pants were made from leftover factory fabric. Wang Shufen made a pair of warm cotton trousers for both Gu Junming and Sun Chan.
Their biggest expense now was food, but Gu Junming occasionally ate at the cafeteria, so it didn’t cost much. Sun Chan saved the remaining money in a fixed deposit because she wanted to buy a house and move out.
Gu Junming said, "I know what you’re thinking, but you’re still young and beautiful. Your classmates all dress up nicely, so you shouldn’t be too stingy or avoid spending money."
"Got it." Sun Chan smiled, "Actually, the clothes I’m wearing are quite decent."
The best-dressed in the class was naturally Wu Qiong, but Sun Chan wasn’t bad herself.
Gu Junming said, "This year, you can go back to your hotown for winter break, right?"
"Sure. We can go back together then," Sun Chan smiled. "Didn’t your parents write to say they’re in good health and are taking the health supplents we bought?"
"That’s good. They’ve suffered all their lives, so they can enjoy things now. We can’t let them get sick," Gu Junming was worried about their health and didn’t want them farming anymore, but they wouldn’t listen.
Wang Shufen had married the cook, and they were doing well. The elders had no worries now. The adoptive parents were like this, and he also sent the sa supplents to his biological father and grandfather, and with Gu Zishan not in town, Gu Junming had soone deliver them.
He treated both families equally, but emotionally, he was closer to his adoptive parents.
Sun Chan was diligently reviewing every day, preparing for the final exams.
She didn’t spend much ti in the compound, but rumors about her trickled out, saying she was wealthy and even the Yang family’s daughter with a good background.
Everyone was shocked; wasn’t she from a village? Who would have thought she was the Yang family’s daughter!
Sun Chan wasn’t interested in these things and didn’t want to associate with them, preferring to be distant, so everyone felt she was aloof.
Zhuang Lin gossiped behind her back, saying Sun Chan was unsociable.
But Sun Chan didn’t ignore everyone; she got along well with people upstairs.
But it wasn’t Ai i; it was Zheng Lijuan. Last ti, it was because Field’s cousin Liu Enming helped her out, and Field and Zheng Lijuan also cared about Sun Chan.
So after a few days when things cald down, she invited the two of them and Liu Enming to a al. They were all young, so they got along well, eating hotpot.
They chatted and laughed, it was very lively.
Liu Enming and Sun Chan were classmates, while the other two were neighbors, so their relationship developed quickly.
Occasionally, when soone made sothing tasty at ho, they would exchange so. Sun Chan would give Zheng Lijuan so of the clothing designs and samples she created that suited her. Zheng Lijuan liked Sun Chan’s personality and would lend her books from the bookstore. They often commuted together to work and school in the city.
Seeing Sun Chan and Zheng Lijuan getting along made Zhuang Lin angry; she had tried herself, but neither Zheng Lijuan nor Sun Chan paid her any attention or wanted association with her.
Zhuang Lin felt indignant and said they looked down on her.
One day, when Sun Chan arrived for her final exams, she saw two classmates whispering and beckoning her over when they saw her co.
Sun Chan curiously asked, "What’s going on?"
"You know? The questions for the next subject have been leaked."
Sun Chan was surprised, "The exam questions? How could they be leaked before the exam?"
"Do you want them? Soone is selling them for fifty bucks a set upfront."
"I don’t want them. Don’t get involved in this either; who knows if it’s a scam."
One of the girls said, "I heard the questions for the previous two subjects were real, so this one shouldn’t be a problem."
"But it’s fifty! That’s expensive."
"What if you fail? The retake fee is reportedly 180!"
Both looked worried. Their grades weren’t great, so they were tempted, thinking about finding soone to split the cost, buying one set would only cost about twenty per person.
Sun Chan chuckled, "I think it’s better not to; relying on your own skills is better. I don’t want it."
When the two girls saw Sun Chan wasn’t interested, they turned to Wu Qiong.
Wu Qiong ca to school in a bad mood because her previous test didn’t go well, she knew she might fail. Now, when the two ntioned buying answers together, she hesitated, "Are you serious?"
"Why would we lie? We thought we could go in on it together and split the cost, this way we won’t fail!"
"Alright, no problem." Wu Qiong, who never minded spending money, was about to pay when she suddenly rembered sothing and said, "Oh, you guys are so poor, you have no money. I’ll pay for it myself then."
"Really?" The two were pleasantly surprised, "That’s so kind of you! Thank you!"
Wu Qiong laughed, "When have I ever gone back on my word? But I won’t help for free; you need to do sothing for !"
"Whatever it is, just say it."
Wu Qiong whispered sothing to them, leaving them speechless, biting their lips in reluctance.
"Don’t want to do it?" Wu Qiong smiled, "Then sorry, I’ll buy the paper myself and use it alone; you can all wait to fail."
"Hey, don’t go!" The two girls called after Wu Qiong together.
Although they knew what they were doing wasn’t right, for the benefit, they reluctantly agreed.
