She limped to the front of Gu Wanwan, although her body was not good, but compared to Gu Anan who was about to fall down while walking, she looked much better. Next to him, Gu Weiqiang looked at his own daughter and became more determined about this matter. His eldest daughter was dull-mouthed, but had a down-to-earth personality. In his opinion, only his eldest daughter could get into college. The younger daughter was not a hardworking person.

  Gu Anans pair of dark eyes stared at Gu Wanwan, making her feel limp all over. Only then did she speak up, "Wanwan, if you want this spot, you can just tell your sister directly, why bother getting mom to find me? Look, Ive been kneeling outside for half a day, and dad and grandma still dont agree, whats the point of this?"

  As soon as she said this, the faces of several people around her changed. This method of retreating in order to advance was something that Gu Anan had learned from her mother when she was wronged as a child.

  Zhou Aijus eyes were scrutinizing, after all, she had been teaching for a lifetime, with ink in her belly and more thoughts.

  Tang Lan Zhi wanted to speak up for her younger daughter, but was pulled back by her own husband. Seeing Gu Wei Qiangs unpleasant expression, she finally backed down.

  "Sister, I didnt."

  The little bean beside him rolled his eyes and said, "Youre the one whos been talking to mom, trying to take big sisters spot."

  Gu Wanwans face turned even paler, as if she was the one who had been kneeling outside for several hours, not Gu Anan.

  "Xian Xian, if youre here to ask me for this quota, Ill even kowtow to Dad and Grandma, and give it up to you."

  Gu Weiqiang and Zhou Aijuan looked at Gu Anan with obvious disapproval, but the heartache in their eyes was unhidden.

  Gu Wanwan plopped down onto the wooden chair, as if all her energy had been drained away. Her eyes welled up with tears, and she forced a smile, "Sisters grades are good, it should be Sister who goes to the county town to attend high school."

  With Gu Wanwans words, todays farce can be considered over.

  As for the quota to go to the city to attend high school, it fell on Gu Anan. She let out a light sigh of relief, this hurdle was finally over.

  She saw Gu Wanwans face getting whiter and whiter, and her heart skipped a beat.

  This wont do, Im going to faint!

  In the second before Gu Wanwan fainted, Gu Anan instead fell to the ground. The little boy Douding next to her was too young and couldnt hold her up, so he shouted, "Dad, come quick, my sister has fainted!" Gu Dongdong and Gu Anan were quite close, usually calling each other directly without any titles, unless Gu Wanwan was around, in which case they would call her "older sister" to distinguish. In the heat of the moment, Douding naturally shouted "sister".

  Gu Wei Qiang took a step forward and carried Gu An An into the warm kang in the west room.

  On the side, Gu Wanwan, who was about to faint, watched this scene and got angry, with a mouthful of blood stuck in her throat, it was really unbearable.

  Dizzy, it has always been her strong point. That wooden big sister, how did she suddenly become so clever? Is it an illusion?

  Tang Lan Zhi shouted several times before Gu Wan Wan came back to her senses. She leaned against Tang Lan Zhis shoulder and said in a sad tone, "Mom, does sister not like me anymore?"

  The little girl furrowed her brow, with a slightly red eye socket, which made Tang Lanxis heart break. She turned back and glared at the west room, "How dare she? If it werent for Eldest Brother, your body wouldnt be so weak? This is what Eldest Brother owes you."

  Tang Lan Zhi has three children, the eldest is Gu An An, the second is Gu Wan Wan, and the third is Gu Dong Dong. In the early years, Gu An An was the first daughter of the old Gu family, and the old lady doted on her so much that she took An An to live with her. Later, when Tang Lan Zhi had the second child, because of Gu An Ans reason, Gu Wan Wan became a premature baby. Tang Lan Zhi already had a thorn in her heart, and she was even more unwilling to let Gu An An come to live with her.

  As for the newly born Gu Wanwan, she personally brought her and doted on her in front of everyone. For many years, her belly had been quiet, and she was often ridiculed by her sisters-in-law for not being able to give birth to a child with a good fate. Tang Lanxis heart was anxious, but in the year Gu Wanwan turned seven, Tang Lanxis belly moved again, and she gave birth to a boy, Gu Dongdong, the son of the fourth branch of the family.

  But!

  She was alone, teaching at school and taking care of a sickly child, so she didnt have time to take care of the younger one. After Gu Dongdong weaned, she handed him over to Zhou Aijuan again to take care of.

  Its said that children grow up with whoever theyre close to, and Gu Anan and Gu Dongdong both grew up by Zhou Aijuans side, so naturally theyre close to the old lady.

  Gu Wanwan received a response from her mother, and she was secretly delighted, but her face remained expressionless. "Mom, I also want to go to the county town to study." It can be said that the entire Old Gu familys heart is focused on Gu Wanwan.

  She knew from a young age that her body was not good, how to pamper herself in order to live better.

  Going to the county town to study is just the first step out of this rural area.

  Tang Lanqi furrowed her brow, "Dont worry, mom will grant your wish." She just needed to think carefully about how to do it.

  Having received a satisfactory reply, Gu Wanwans mood suddenly cleared up.

  As for Gu Anan, who was carried into the western wings kang, she had originally planned to pretend to be unconscious. Who would have thought that as soon as her body tilted, she really fainted? After all, this body of hers wasnt very strong, and after being outside in the freezing cold for several hours, it would be strange if she didnt get sick.

  Gu Wei Qiang put Gu An An on the bed, and Xiao Dou Ding automatically pulled the quilt over to cover Gu An Ans body.

  Accidentally bumped into Gu Anans forehead, Xiao Dou Ting exclaimed, "Dad, sisters body is so hot!"

  In the winter, he wore thick clothes, and Gu Wei Qiang was a big man, really didnt notice, after being reminded by his young son at home, touched his big daughters head, it was hot like charcoal, heart-burning in a hurry.

  He was so anxious that he became flustered. To say, Anan was a child who could withstand hardships and rarely got sick, but this time she fell ill, which frightened Gu Weiqiang. He was worried and confused, and with one slap on the thigh, he wanted to rush to Dr. Chis house while carrying Anan.

  Just as she was halfway through hugging, Zhou Aijuan came in and slapped her hand down, "Put it down." She still held a steaming ceramic basin in her hand, filled with hot water, apparently for Anans use.

  "This child had caught a chill earlier, and youre taking her out to play in the snow, isnt that going to take her life?!", she said as she took off the keys from her waist and handed them to Gu Weiqiang, "Go get six eggs from the kitchen cabinet, for good luck, and have Huazai bring them over, let him come visit our home and see Anan." Gu Huazi was a barefoot doctor in Gujia Village, and he and Gu Weiqiang were considered brothers who grew up together. Gu Weiqiang was clever and hardworking, so he went to learn the skill of driving.
