Next to them, Lin Xia and Bai Xueli’s expressions changed slightly; they hadn’t expected Manager Li’s fiancée to be a university student. University students are highly sought after these days, not to ntion she’s the provincial top scorer this year!
Moreover, she got into the First dical University. When she graduates, she’ll be a doctor admired by everyone; she can even go abroad in the future with a high salary. This is a unique honor in Saozi Big Courtyard.
Lin Xia has the most pure and honest nature in Saozi Courtyard, deeply influenced by feudal ideas.
She always believed that girls who study wouldn’t amount to much, having no skills, and could only stay at ho to support their husbands and educate children.
But now Nianyang has changed her worldview; turns out girls can also go to university and even beco top scorers!
Bai Xueli, on the other hand, was much more open-minded. No one in Saozi Courtyard is a university student. Most have only completed junior high school.
Even Xu Zhiyi only has a high school education. So suddenly, with a provincial top scorer coming in, does she, one of the old-generation Saozi, still have a place?
Facing Xu Zhiyi’s complints, Nianyang shyly smiled, "Xu Saozi, you’re too kind. I have to thank President Liang for helping with the volunteer form, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to attend university this year."
The more Xu Zhiyi looked at Nianyang, the more pleased she was. Though the young girl was of tender age, she was smart, pretty, and quick-witted, and spoke gracefully and politely. She was truly endearing.
With a face blooming with a smile, she said, "Nian girl, don’t be so modest. Talents like you will achieve great things in the future. Given that my husband is the president, naturally, he wouldn’t stand by idle. This is what he should do."
Nianyang felt warm inside hearing these comforting words, thinking the president’s wife is truly gentle. This is what true Saozi grace is about.
"Nian girl, since you just moved yesterday and your house has nothing in it, I thought you might have a lot of things to sort out and was afraid you couldn’t handle it all alone, so I ca with the more enthusiastic Sister-in-law Lin and Sister-in-law Bai to help you."
"Xu Saozi, Lin Saozi, Bai Saozi, you’re really too considerate. I ca back too late yesterday to buy anything, just about to head to the city now.
I plan to ask Ayan’s man to drive to the city. I don’t have many things to buy, and I can manage by myself. There’s no need to trouble you."
Nianyang isn’t soone who doesn’t understand politeness. Even if they said they’re coming to help, she can’t take it literally; maybe it was just courtesy on their part.
Xu Zhiyi patted Nianyang’s hand. "Nian girl, you make us sound like strangers. Didn’t we say we’re family? If you continue being so polite, we won’t be happy!"
Bai Xueli enthusiastically said, "Xu Saozi is right. We’re all Saozi, and should help each other. There’s no need to feel shy. Besides, we were planning to go to the city to buy so ingredients, so let’s go together."
Lin Xia also whispered, "Yes, yes, with your slender arms and legs, you won’t be able to carry all that by yourself. It’s better to go together so we can help."
Everyone had already put it like that, and Nianyang didn’t want to appear ungrateful, so she had to agree with a smile. She didn’t like owing favors and thought she must buy them so gifts later to give as a token of appreciation.
Since they were going to the city, Xu Zhiyi took charge and borrowed a spacious small truck, arranging a driver to take them all to the city.
