Chapter 1360： Very sensible and decisive

…

In two days' time, it was the day when Minghan and Mingwei reported to the university. After breakfast, Jiang Li directly called the children in the family to get in the car and took them to the mall for shopping.

“Mom, I am studying at National University, and I don’t have time to wear regular clothes on campus. Besides, you have bought me a lot of clothes in the past two years, and some of them are not even upper body yet, so you don’t need to buy them for me today.”

Knowing what their mother was going to do, Minghan expressed her thoughts directly.

"You can't wear regular clothes on campus. Don't you think you can wear them when you go out on weekends or go home during the holidays? As for the clothes you mentioned and the **** clothes, they were bought before. Now you are about to enter the university, so buy one or two new clothes. I think this is a ritual and quite necessary.”

Jiang Li held the steering wheel, looked forward, curved the corners of her lips slightly, and said: "Not only will I buy it for you, Xiao En will also buy it. When I get to the mall later, I will only pick out what you like, and you can't refuse. "

“Thank you, Mom!” Mingrui smiled and nodded, without saying a word of rejection.

Minghan felt that this eldest brother was really cunning. He was obviously the second most serious stepfather in the family, but he still knew how to be a good mother, huh! Scheming boy!

“I like the new clothes my mother bought me the most!”

This is Mingwei’s voice.

 Guo Guo smiled and echoed in a childish voice: "Me too!"

“I’ll wear whatever mom buys!” Tang Yuan said with a smile.

Tuanzi: “Thank you, mom!”

Minghan said with a grimace: "I feel isolated, so miserable!"

Immediately, there was a burst of laughter in the car.

Since school is about to start, there are obviously more people in the mall than usual.

Ladies clothing area on the second floor.

Song Xiaoran accidentally saw Jiang Li and his entourage walking over, and she was so happy that she shouted out: "Aunt Jiang! Weiwei!"

Hearing Song Xiaoran's voice, Ming Wei was the first to look over, waved, and walked over with Jiang Li and Mingrui.

Wu Yuegang had just bought a dress and a set of seasonal clothes for her daughter. When she saw Jiang Li, she smiled and asked, "Just arrived?"

Hearing this, Jiang Li pointed to the shopping bag Ming Rui Minghan was carrying, and she said, "It's been a while."

All the clothes for Brother Mingrui have been bought, leaving only the outfits for Ming Wei and Guoguo.

“What do you think of this skirt? If your Weiwei likes it, buy her one too.”

Unfolding the dress she bought for her daughter, Wu Yue recommended it to Jiang Li.

Unexpectedly, before Jiang Li could say anything, Ming Wei shook her head: "I like that suspender suit."

A pure white shirt, embellished with simple lace, and paired with black overalls. It is so simple that Ming Wei feels refreshed and comfortable.

Jiang Li had no objection. She nodded with a smile in her eyes: "Okay, I'll buy you that one and see, which one do you like?"

Hearing what Jiang Li said, Ming Wei was naturally not pretentious. She picked another mid-length windbreaker and didn't look at anything else.

Seeing that Mingwei had already made her choice, Guoguo quickly chose the clothes she liked. Then, she said, "Mom, can my sister and I help you find the clothes?"

“No, mom’s clothes are all over the cabinet. Last week, your grandpa brought several sets of clothes to mom. Have you forgotten?”

Jiang Boya really treats Jiang Li as a little princess and dotes on her. Even though this daughter is now thirty-two-three, in Jiang Boya's eyes, Jiang Li is just a little girl who has not grown up. When she sees beautiful clothes or skirts, Bags, cosmetics, etc. will all be bought to Jiang Li.

Striving to make up for his love for Jiang Li.

"No."

Guoguo shook his head.

Jiang Li smiled: "Since I haven't forgotten it, does mom still need to buy it?"

Guoguo is silent.

“Okay, mommy goes and pays.”

Jiang Li said, took out his wallet, took the receipt issued by the salesperson, and went to the cashier window to settle the bill.

“Weiwei, are you going to pick her up tomorrow?”

Song Xiaoran stood next to Ming Wei, and she asked in a low voice.

“The day after tomorrow. Tomorrow my mother will send my second brother to National University.”

Mingwei responded.

Song Xiaoran's eyes were full of smiles: "Me too, the day after tomorrow. What time do you plan to leave so that we can meet at the school gate."

Mingwei: “Around nine o’clock.”

“Then let’s make an agreement and we’ll see you there then.”

Song Xiaoran held Minghan's arm and said with a happy face: "We will be classmates again!"

"Um."

Mingwei also smiled happily.

Except for not attending the same school for three years in high school, Song Xiaoran and Minghan both went to school. Now they are about to enter university. They are both freshmen at Beicheng Film Academy and are both studying acting. They are worthy of being good friends. Good sisters.

Maybe we can be partners at work in the future.

As for whether the two people's acting styles will conflict, in terms of appearance, they probably won't.

Ming Wei’s facial features are beautiful and majestic, and she looks particularly sassy. She probably has a royal-sister style.

Song Xiaoran is pretty and baby-faced, so if she is in the circle, she is probably the sweet type.

“Let me tell you something.”

Suddenly, Song Xiaoran acted mysteriously.

"What?"

Mingwei is curious.

Song Xiaoran's eyes were bright and she lowered her voice and said, "I met you, Xiao Tong, half a month ago. She said that Shen Shenqing was going to return to our country for development, and that Shen Shenqing had finished college abroad."

“Ji’an?” Mingwei was startled and said, “So sudden?”

“Yes, it’s Ji’an, but why don’t you call him by his famous name?”

Song Xiaoran nodded, and then there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

“We used to live in the same compound. When I was young, I got used to calling him Ji’an, so I never thought of changing my name.”

Ming Wei said, she looked at Song Xiaoran thoughtfully: "When you mentioned Shen Shenqing, I felt that you were in a very happy mood. Do you like him?"

Hearing this, Song Xiaoran blushed: "What are you talking about?!"

Looking at Mingwei angrily, she said, "We haven't seen each other for more than six years. Why do I like it so much? Besides, before Shen Shenqing was brought back to China by his father, we were all still primary school students!"

"When you were in elementary school, you liked to watch Shen Shenqing the most. Besides you, Han Qian also paid special attention to Shen Shenqing. As soon as you two got out of class, you only had your eyes glued to her, and I saw it all. inside."

Ming Wei said, her eyes gradually becoming complicated: "I didn't expect that this little girl like you is quite affectionate."

Song Xiaoran was not annoyed at being teased, but was embarrassed: "He looks like a doll, but I just looked at it twice, and you thought wrong about it. Weiwei, were you so mature in elementary school?"

Song Xiaoran teased Ming Wei meaningfully.

"I'm just good at observation. Besides, I'm precocious, not mature."

Ming Wei is serious.

“You are so talkative that I am no match for you.”

As Song Xiaoran said, she asked: "Do you have a boy you like?"

“Not yet.”

Mingwei shook her head, and then she said: "Xiaoran, if you really like Shen Shenqing, I advise you to be more cautious. After all, he and our mother have been separated for more than six years, and you and I don't know what he has become now.

Moreover, people abroad are more precocious, so maybe Shen Shenqing already has a girlfriend. "

“How do you think I like Shen Shenqing?”

Song Xiaoran endured his discomfort and said: "I really looked at him a few more times just because he looked like a doll."

“I’m originally a foreigner, well, I’m half a foreigner…”

Before Ming Wei finished speaking, she heard Song Xiaoran's laughter: "What do you mean by half-foreigner? Shen Shenqing means half-race."

“I know. But can you say that he is not half-foreign?”

Mingwei said expressionlessly: "My father is a foreigner and my mother is from our country. I said he is half-foreign. There is nothing wrong with that."

“Yes, yes, you are right!”

Song Xiaoran smiled.

“Let’s go, let’s have a meal with your Aunt Jiang and the others before going home.”

After going to the cashier to pay with Jiang Li, Wu Yue came over and spoke to Song Xiaoran.

"OK."

Song Xiaoran responded.

The group of people walked out of the shopping mall. Jiang Li treated them to a meal and had lunch at a restaurant with good decoration, environment and hygiene. Then the two families separated.

"Let's go to the cashier window with Aunt Wu to check out. What are you and Song Xiaoran talking about standing together? I think you are mysterious."

On the way home, Minghan suddenly asked Mingwei this question.

“Second brother, do you care about girls chatting?”

Ming Wei did not answer, but looked at Ming Han meaningfully.

"You were whispering there and your expressions were changing. I was just asking casually."

Minghan was not embarrassed at all: "I don't think you are talking about anything good."

“We are talking about girls, why can’t we talk about good things?”

Ming Wei was dissatisfied: "Or...Second brother, you are actually interested in Xiaoran. What do you want to know from me?"

"Are you not mistaken? I am interested in Song Xiaoran?" Minghan looked like he had seen a ghost: "Song Xiaoran is not the type of girl I like."

Mingwei rolled her eyes and asked, "What kind of girl does this guy like?"

Minghan raised his eyebrows: "Do you think I will tell you?"

“When you two are older, just talk about what you like or don’t like, and put your mind on studying, which is better than anything else.”

Mingrui suddenly said something.

“Brother, my second brother and I don’t like anyone.”

Ming Wei glanced at Mingrui.

“Change it if it exists, and encourage it if it doesn’t.”

Mingrui was driving, he responded casually.

Jiang Li hugged Guoguo, sat with Tuanzi Tangyuan, and Mingwei in the back seat. She raised the corners of her lips to listen to the conversation between her children and did not choose to interrupt.

“Brother, you will be in your third year of college soon. Haven’t you found a girlfriend yet?”

Minghan was sitting in the passenger seat. He looked at Mingrui and asked with a smile.

"Do not have time."

Mingrui answered simply.

“Second brother, I can tell you what Xiaoran and I talked about, do you want to hear it?”

Mingwei asked Minghan.

“If you want to say something, of course I’m all ears.”

Minghan turned around and waited for Mingwei to speak.

“Actually, it’s not a big deal, it’s just that Shen Shenqing wants to return to our country for development.”

Hearing the name "Shen Shenqing" from Ming Wei's mouth, Jiang Li undoubtedly thought of Shen Yun.

However, there was nothing strange about her expression.

Minghan: "Is that the little mute Jian?!"

“Second brother, can you be polite? Why is Shen Shenqing so mute? It’s just like our eldest brother and Tuanzi, who don’t like to talk much on weekdays.”

Ming Wei doesn’t like to give nicknames to her classmates, not to mention that Shen Shenqing is the son of Guo Guogan’s father and is related to her family!

“Second brother, brother Ji’an is very good!”

Although Guoguo has never met Shen Shenqing in person, she has seen photos, and every time Austin, the godfather, calls the domestic portrait, he will ask his son Ji'an (Shen Shenqing) to say a few words to Guoguo.

Euphemistically called it, cultivate the relationship between brother and sister.

…

Back to the courtyard, before Jiang Liniang and others got out of the car, they saw Xiao Tong sitting on a bamboo chair under the eaves.

“I will definitely come to find you.” Minghan said to Mingwei.

“If you’re not looking for me, why are you looking for you?” Ming Wei responded in a nonchalant manner, then opened the car door and looked at Xiao Tong with a smile: “When did you come here?”

“Just arrived for a while.”

Xiao Tong was sitting under the eaves chatting with Cai Xiufang. When she heard Mingwei's voice, she stood up and said with a smile, "Ji'an is with me."

“Why didn’t you see anyone?”

Mingwei couldn't help but ask Xiao Tong when she didn't see Ji'an in the yard.

“Go to the bathroom.”

Just as Xiao Tong was talking, he saw someone from Ji'an had appeared.

“Hello, Aunt Jiang.”

Ji'an followed Xiao Tong and said hello to Jiang Li, and then said hello to Mingrui Minghan and Tuanzi glutinous rice balls. Then he turned his eyes to Guoguo, a pair of blue eyes gradually filled with smile, and asked Guoguo in proficient Chinese. :"Do you know who I am?"

“Brother Ji’an!”

 Guo Guo smiled and said, "I can recognize brother Ji'an's voice, and we have a photo of brother Ji'an at home."

Ji'an smiled and opened his hands towards Guoguo. The next moment, Guoguo flew over and was picked up by Ji'an.

"sit."

Mingwei greeted Xiao Tong to sit back on the bamboo chair. She asked, "When did Ji'an come back?"

“Three days ago.”

Xiao Tong said: "The next day after I got home, I went to the set to discuss work with the agreed-upon crew, and then she was called home by her grandparents. As soon as she has time, she asked me to bring him over to visit Aunt Jiang and you."

“Ji’an really became an actor?”

Mingwei had heard Xiao Tong mention it before, but she couldn't help but confirm it again.

“He studied directing and took acting as an elective. Maybe he didn’t have a good book at the moment, so he wanted to be an actor for two years to gain more experience on the set.”

Hearing what Xiao Tong said, Ming Wei looked at her and thought deeply, then whispered to Xiao Tong: "You want to learn from the director, right?"

Xiao Tong was startled at first, then nodded.

Ming Wei: "In that case, why did he choose to go far away from the near? In their country, there are many well-known directors and actors, and their family runs an entertainment company. Is it necessary to go to our country?"

“Ji’an has the nationality of our country.”

Xiao Tong said: "As for why he had to return to China to develop, I didn't ask, but it should be because he likes it!"

“That’s the only way to explain it!”

Mingwei said, and saw that Shen Shenqing seemed to be looking at her, but as soon as he caught her gaze, his eyes quickly moved away, which made Mingwei feel strange.

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Tong noticed that Ming Wei frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask.

"Ji'an seemed to be looking at me, but when I looked at him, his eyes quickly shifted away, as if what I thought was just my illusion!"

Mingwei tilted her head, feeling quite confused.

“Maybe Ji’an likes you!”

Xiao Tong said with a smile.

Mingwei smiled and waved her hands: "Don't talk nonsense! We have known each other since we were young. How many words can I say to Ji'an Tongtong and me? Anyway, in my impression, he will always stand behind you, and he has shown that silence is golden. Extreme.”

“But he is an actor now. Do you feel conflicted?”

Xiao Tong smiled lowly.

“A bit. He obviously doesn’t like to talk and laugh, but he became an actor. I’m very curious about how he acts.”

Ming Wei’s eyes were full of interest.

Xiao Tong: "Then let me tell you something that will surprise you even more. Ji'an won the Best Actor Award for his first film abroad!"

Ming Wei’s eyes widened: “Are you sure?”

“I’m sure and sure, how could I lie to you about this?”

Xiao Tong said: “Maybe it’s called talent!”

Shen Shenqing played with Guoguo and Tangyuan for a while, and then he and Minghan stood chatting together.

However, Minghan basically said that he was listening, occasionally nodded, and answered one or two sentences, and his words were concise and to the point.

“When will you report for duty?”

“The day after tomorrow at noon.”

"Me too."

“You like being a teacher?”

“I think being a teacher has winter and summer vacations, but I also prefer the teaching profession.”

Xiao Tong was admitted to Beicheng Normal University.

“You have a good temper and are well suited to the profession of teacher.”

Ming Wei said with a smile on her face: "If it were me, I would be easily **** off by the students."

“You have a good temper too.”

Xiao Tong and Ming Wei chatted for about twenty or thirty minutes. When they saw Mingrui was about to leave the hospital, they couldn't help but get up and said, "I have a few words to say to Brother Mingrui."

Without waiting for Ming Wei to respond, she chased after Mingrui.

Ming Wei thought it looked strange, but didn’t think much about it.

Outside the courtyard gate, Mingrui was stopped by Xiao Tong, and he looked at him in confusion.

…”

Standing in front of him, Xiao Tong summoned up the courage to speak: "Brother Mingrui, do you have a girlfriend?"

…”

Mingrui was stunned.

I don’t understand what Xiao Tong means.

Who knows, before he said anything, Xiao Tong closed his eyes and continued: "If not, I wonder if I can be your girlfriend? Brother Mingrui, I...I like you!"

Mingrui changed his face immediately after Xiao Tong's voice: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Slowly opening her eyes, Xiao Tong found that Mingrui's face looked very ugly. She felt puzzled and said, "Of course I know what I'm talking about. I just don't know what you are thinking about now, Brother Mingrui."

At this moment, Xiao Tong was very nervous, but he was looking forward to Mingrui's answer.

“Xiao Tong, it’s impossible between you and me.”

Mingrui looked indifferent.

"Why?"

Xiao Tong was a little injured.

Mingrui: "I have no interest in you, so you'd better not waste your time on me?"

Hearing this, Xiao Tong's eyes couldn't help but turn red: "Do you hate me?"

“It doesn’t matter whether I hate you or not, there will never be anything between you and me!”

Hearing what Mingrui said, tears flashed in Xiao Tong's eyes: "But I like you very much, Brother Mingrui. I am also a college student now, and we are in the same compound. When I was young..."

"There is no need to say more. As for what you said before, I just pretend that I didn't hear it. You can forget it yourself."

Speaking, Mingrui turned around and moved forward.

But after taking two steps, he stopped again and looked back at Xiao Tong: "You can ask Uncle Xiao if there is a suitable relationship between you and me."

In any case, Xiao Tong and he are half-brothers and sisters. If they don't know the reason, there is no guarantee that they won't get into trouble.

Standing there, Xiao Tong watched Mingrui walk away. This was the first time in her life that she was tempted, especially when she thought about that evening, if she hadn't met Luo Mingrui, her brother from the same compound, what would have been her life. All destroyed.

But his appearance saved her in time. At that moment, she felt like he was holding her on the edge of the cliff, preventing her from falling into the abyss.

Hence, she was deeply moved and knew that he was hospitalized to save his injuries.

Unconsciously, this feeling turned into something strange. When she realized that she was attracted to him and fell in love with him, she thought about studying hard and confessing her love to him in front of him after she was admitted to college.

It would be great if he agreed.

If you refuse, she won’t pester you.

But what does it mean to be impossible? What does it mean that there is never a possibility between him and her?

She felt so uncomfortable, but Xiao Tong didn't want to be noticed. She wiped the tears from her face and stood there for a long time. When her emotions calmed down, she turned around and returned to the courtyard.

“You’re going back now? You really don’t want to play more?”

“No, let’s meet again another day.”

Farewell to Mingwei, Xiao Tong greeted Shen Shenqing (Ji'an), said goodbye to Jiang Li, Cai Xiufang, Minghan and Tuanzi, and left in the car.

The car was bought by the Shen family before Ji'an returned to China to facilitate Shen Shenqing's work abroad.

"Mother…"

Ji'an drove Xiao Tong away and watched Minghan enter the courtyard with three dumplings. Mingwei called Jiang Li softly.

“Is something going on?”

Jiang Li and Ming Wei stood at the door of the courtyard. She looked gentle and said: "Go ahead."

“Tongtong seems to have cried.”

Mingwei expressed her doubts.

"You two are sitting under the eaves chatting. Don't you know why she is crying?"

Jiang Li also felt strange. How could the little girl's eyes turn into rabbit eyes?

“Tongtong chased my eldest brother outside the yard. She was fine at that time, but when she returned to the yard, I saw that she had obviously cried in her eyes.”

As she said this, Ming Wei suddenly thought of something, and then her eyes widened: "No way?"

“What did you think of?”

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows.

“Could it be that...could it be that Tongtong likes my eldest brother, but my eldest brother knew the relationship between Tongtong and him, so he refused without mercy, and Tongtong couldn’t accept this blow, so...”

Ming Wei hadn't finished speaking yet. At this moment, Jiang Li raised his chin: "Your eldest brother is back. I want to know what to ask. If you ask your eldest brother directly, it will be clear."

…”

Mingrui held a bottle of ink in his hand, which he had just bought from a nearby canteen. When he saw Jiang Li and Ming Wei staring at him, they were a little confused for a moment.

“Brother, does Tongtong like you? In the end, you rejected her, right?”

Mingwei went straight to the point.

Mingrui looked as usual: "Is there something wrong with her?"

Mingwei: "Tongtong and Ji'an went back. She cried before leaving."

Jiang Li remained silent.

“Yes, it’s just what you said.”

Mingrui looked calm: "In order to prevent her from getting into trouble, I even suggested that she go home and ask Uncle Xiao about the reason."

“Go home, what are you doing here?”

Jiang Li walked into the courtyard gate and asked Mingrui Mingwei to follow him.

“Mom, do you think I handled it properly?”

Mingrui asked Jiang Li.

Mingwei walked into the courtyard silently. She had nothing to say at this time.

“Very sensible and decisive, pretty good.”

Jiang Li said with a smile: "Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. A strong dose of medicine. She feels uncomfortable now, but once she figures it out, everything will be fine."

She doesn’t want any **** incident to happen to her children.

Just like what was shown on TV, two young men and women went through all kinds of hardships and finally wanted to achieve success. However, they were told by their families: Children, you are blood-related brothers and sisters, and you cannot be together!
