Chapter 275 Zhan Yu asks for help
Zhan Yu felt relieved when he saw that the Kong family children were willing to accept Zhan Mengyan.
"Brother Zhan, please tell me what's going on. Mengyan was admitted to high school, which is a great thing. Unlike our family, none of the three children was admitted to high school. They are all junior high school students and have to go to the vegetable garden with me to grow vegetables. Brother Zhan, you are so lucky that your daughter was admitted to high school. She will be a potential student for college in the future..." Kong Pengcheng said enviously.
After hearing what Kong Pengcheng said, Zhan Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Alas, it's hard to put it into words. Every family has its own problems. You see, I envy my family, and I see you envy your family too. I just entered the yard and saw you and your two twin sons helping you work. I was so envious. I don't have as many helpers as you do when I work. Zhan Yingying is the only girl at home who can help me. Tomorrow she will become a disciple to learn hairdressing, so there will be even fewer helpers... Brother Kong, sister-in-law Yueyun, I came to ask you for help today. Zhan Mengyan just got into high school this year. Originally, I discussed with your fourth sister-in-law Yunqing that we didn't plan to let Mengyan go to high school, because my old son Zhan Zixun is in the second year of high school. We can't afford to support two high school students at home, but Mengyan has loved studying and going to school since she was a child. This time, my husband and I didn't let her go to school after she got into high school, so she ran away from home and didn't go to the key high school in the county. But he went to the county ordinary high school, lived and ate at the county sports school, and temporarily made a living by playing basketball. When in Heilongjiang, your fourth sister-in-law fell into an ice hole and was rescued. She saved her life. During the recovery period, Zhan Yingying took on the housework herself so that her sister Mengyan could go to school and gave her the opportunity to go to school. My eldest son Zhan Zixun saw that his sister sneaked away from home to go to school, and he felt sorry for his sister Mengyan, and decided to give her the opportunity to go to school. But I think Zhan Zixun has been thin and weak since he was a child. He is not suitable for farming, and I hope to get away from farm work by studying. So I don’t want him to drop out of school. But Mengyan insisted on not giving up her studies, so I’ll give up my face and see if Brother Kong and Sister Yueyun can take Mengyan in and let her stay at your house for a while. Your family should discuss it carefully. If you feel there are difficulties and inconveniences, just say it, and I will go to the county to find other relatives and friends.”
After listening to Zhan Yu's words, Kong Pengcheng laughed and said, "Oh, my fourth brother Zhan, after you said so much, I finally understood why you came here today. You came to find a place for my niece to stay at school to save some accommodation fees. Look how embarrassed you are. Do you need to discuss letting Mengyan live in my house? I'm grateful that fourth brother Zhan thinks highly of me, his younger brother, and can entrust his daughter to our family. Niu Yueyun likes daughters, so we will just have one more daughter, which is exactly two sons and two daughters. Hahaha, but our family conditions are not very good. The place we live in is small, and we have a big kang with a bunk bed. Men, women, old and young squeeze on this kang to sleep. When Mengyan comes back from school at night, will her studies be affected?"
"No, no! After evening self-study at school, I just sleep and don't study. I get up early in the morning to go to school for morning self-study. I'm just afraid that when I come back from evening self-study and open the door, it will disturb Grandma Kong and the rest of the family's sleep." Zhan Mengyan answered hurriedly.
"Your grandmother Kong is very deaf. She can't hear us talking like this, so don't worry about disturbing her sleep. As for your Uncle Kong and your two brothers and sister, they sleep like dead pigs. You can't even hear thunder, let alone wake them up. I go to bed late, and when you come back from evening study, I probably won't go to bed yet, so there's no chance of disturbing my sleep. It's just right that you come back, so we can sleep together." Niu Yueyun said to Zhan Mengyan lovingly.
