After saying that, Mai Fan slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table and smiled at his mother: "Mom, is this my first meal back?"
"Let's not talk about catching the wind and washing away the dust. Where is the meat?"
His mother was so frightened that she trembled: "Oh, yes! Yes!"
When eating at home, as long as Mai Dayou and Mai Qiang are at home, there will definitely be meat and vegetables on the table.
But now, there is a second son in the family who doesn't act according to common sense.
You dare to shout about eating meat when you come up!
What has he experienced after being in the countryside for so many years?
Perhaps it was because Mai Fan had so much fierceness that even Mai Dayou, who was always in control at home... was able to suppress the anger that had arisen just now.
Since we can't talk about his exams, let's talk about accommodation: "Since you plan to take exams, prepare well."
"Then don't live with that classmate of yours, move back home, and study hard."
Mai Fan watched Mai's mother put a pot of boiled bone on the table and smiled: "Move it back home?"
"Is this our home environment? Where do I live?"
"There are three rooms in total, one for parents, one for eldest brother and sister-in-law, and the younger sister occupies half of the living room. Then what is separated behind the three-ply board is her bed, right?"
"Where should I sleep? I'll sleep by the gate for everyone, right?"
"That camp bed can fall to the ground when you turn over, so you want me to move it back and study hard?"
"Farewell, you don't have to worry about where I live. I won't cause any trouble to any of my friends."
"As for me, I live in a small hotel run by the community. I have a single room, and there are people who provide hot water and clean the room."
"As for the accommodation fee, it's not expensive. If you pay a monthly fee, it only costs fifteen yuan a month. It doesn't include meals, but only accommodation."
"What!" Upon hearing the price, Mai's mother couldn't sit still: "Fifteen yuan! It still costs money! Where did you get the money?"
Mai Fan picked up the bones and gnawed them loudly: "I saved them. I didn't spend any of the interesting money you gave me during the holidays."
"When I go to the countryside, I don't have to worry about food and drink, and I still get work points."
"Didn't my mother give me ten yuan yesterday? I can deal with it on my own for more than a month without spending any money at home."
"Is there any problem now? Can you eat without any problem?"
Be confident!
Now that we have talked about it, there really is nothing more to say.
Mai Dayou tapped the edge of the basin with his chopsticks: "Eat!" This was a signal that the family could start.
They finally understood that this second son was no longer the obedient and shy child before he went to the countryside.
How should I put it, a savage growth of power was flourishing in his body.
I always feel that if I confront him and don't follow his ideas, I'm afraid something bigger will happen.
Thinking of this, Mai Dayou still tried to say: "If you insist on not going back to live at home, that's fine."
"We have to make an agreement in three chapters."
"One, I'll give you just over a month. If you can't get into college, then everything else will have to be arranged by your family."
"Second, you've seen the situation at home. Your sister has to take the exam this year just like you. Your mother has already stepped down in order to let your eldest brother take over the job. Your eldest sister-in-law is still a temporary worker, and her salary is not high.
, they have a child at home who is also in school. The conditions at home are like this, and we can’t support a free earner, so we may not be able to afford the living expenses and future school fees.”
"Third, if you go out to live, talk to your neighbors when you go out. Say that you went out to live out of your own considerations, not because your family forced you."
"If you do these three things, your family won't stop you from doing anything during this period."
Mai Fan had finished chewing a big bone stick at this time. He threw the bone on the table and agreed very happily: "Okay! No problem."
"I'll explain to my neighbor as soon as I go out. Also, my little sister has to prepare for the exam this year? Life goes by so fast."
"If I had known that my younger sister was also a candidate for examination, why would I have asked He Wenjuan to borrow some books? It would be so convenient for my brother and sister to borrow them."
This is what I said...
Mai Dayou and Mai's mother were frightened for a while: "No! Didn't you borrow them all? Your little sister is also having a hard time studying!"
"Don't interfere with each other! Work together and work together!"
By this time, Mai Dayou and his family began to feel happy that Mai Fan had moved out.
So what if the reputation is worse?
Can a good reputation be used as food?
The most important thing is that the interests of the family are not harmed.
Talking about the real interests of family members.
Mai Dayou then remembered: "Mai Fan, what do you think about settling in? Should you wait a little longer or ask your mother to go to the neighborhood committee to handle it for you later?"
"If you haven't thought about it well, just hand the certificate to your mother first and ask her to keep it for you. The environment of the hotel is unsafe with so much movement of people."
Mai Fan had already started working on the second bone at this time. He didn't even raise his head and replied: "No, the neighbor helped me apply for it yesterday. The person from the street office issued a temporary residence permit for me.
Neighbors also took the initiative to protect themselves.”
"When I get into college, I will be registered directly in the school's collective household registration. Once I graduate, I can just find an employer that can accommodate me."
This is what I said...
I actually took out a loan to go to college in advance.
Mai Dayou sneered, stopped talking, and was not in a hurry. When these two boys hit a wall, he would know who had the final say in this family, and who he asked for...
Everyone was in a bad mood after this meal, and no one enjoyed it except Mai Fan.
They looked helplessly at this strange yet familiar family member, gnawed half of the bones in one breath, and before leaving, they also took away two three-faced steamed buns from the basket.
Hold it in! Get used to it! There will always be times when this kid stumbles. How arrogant he is now will be how miserable he will be in the future.
The Mai family's spiritual victory method worked, and they didn't say any weird things until Mai Fan left the house.
Mai Dayou still remembered the three chapters of the agreement between him and Mai Fan. He secretly followed Mai Fan out of the yard, wanting to see if the second son, who had changed his temperament drastically, had fulfilled the third point of his promise.
Then, he saw that Mai Fan actually went to explain to the neighbors honestly.
But why does this sound so awkward?
"Yes, my parents said that the two people in the family who have to take exams cannot influence each other..."
"I am the elder brother, so of course I have to give in to my younger sister. Her conditions are better than mine. I didn't have much hope of getting into the exam, so I just gave it a try. If the difference is really too far, I will give up."
"It's okay. I insist on staying in the small hotel. Really, I just want to read some books in a down-to-earth manner."
