Chapter 1553 - 1554: The Younger Sister-in-Law’s Counterattack
Chapter 1553: Chapter 1554: The Younger Sister-in-Law’s Counterattack
After feeding her son well, Cheng Su handed him over to the family and went to the restaurant to get busy. Qi Fengping volunteered to help, and the two sisters-in-law went out together.
"Big sister, look!"
On the bus, Qi Fengping couldn’t help but take out an envelope from her bag and handed it to Cheng Su.
Seeing the words on the envelope, Cheng Su exclaimed in surprise, "You received the acceptance letter?"
She took the contents out of the envelope, and sure enough, it was an acceptance letter. The university wasn’t a famous one, but in this era, a university is a university, and getting in is impressive.
"When did you receive it? Why didn’t you call to share the good news?" Cheng Su solemnly placed the letter back, handing it back to her.
Qi Fengping carefully put it back in her bag as if it was a treasure and said with a smile, "I only received it a few days ago and wanted to surprise you, so I didn’t mention it."
"Even saying it over the phone is a surprise." Cheng Su smiled and said, "Little Ping, congratulations! You’re about to step into a whole new world! Your efforts have paid off, how does it feel?"
Qi Fengping was somewhat proud and said, "Previously, I never even thought about it. This time, I repeated the year without much hope, just taking the exam to try my luck. I gave it my all, and unexpectedly, I got accepted, though not into a well-known university."
"Even if it’s not prestigious, it’s in Hucheng, which is a prosperous city. Once you graduate, planting roots there is a good choice!" Cheng Su said, "You’ve also said before that given your aptitude, it might be unlikely, but now, the doors to university have opened for you!"
"Yes! It’s truly good luck!" Qi Fengping’s eyes shone a little.
Cheng Su pressed her hand on Qi Fengping’s shoulder, saying, "Little sister, this isn’t luck, but the reward for your hard work. You’ve fought hard for a year, when others were already dreaming, you were still reading materials, memorizing words, practicing speaking, and doing exercises. Is that luck? No, it’s due to your effort!"
Qi Fengping was taken aback: "Sister-in-law..."
How did she know?
"Silly girl, you live at home, what wouldn’t I know? I’ve seen it all!" Cheng Su laughed, recalling more than once waking up at night and seeing Qi Fengping’s room light on and hearing her studying English.
Qi Fengping felt a twinge in her nose, her throat choked up, and something surged in her eyes: "Sister-in-law, I..." The embarrassing incident she caused before was known by everyone, she suffered unkind stares, her heart was bitter, but who knew? Just to put all that behind, she gritted her teeth and stumbled forward.
"Alright, you’re a grown girl now, still crying noses! Do you take yourself for your nephew, crying whenever you want!" Cheng Su teased her intentionally.
Qi Fengping burst out laughing and glared at her, "Annoying!"
Cheng Su laughed out loud.
Qi Fengping wiped the tears from her eyes, glanced sideways at Cheng Su, pursed her lips, and said, "Sister-in-law, thank you." She paused and added, "And, I’m sorry!"
"Oh, why are you apologizing to me?" Cheng Su asked, surprised.
Qi Fengping blushed, embarrassed, and said, "In the past, I didn’t think well of you and often contradicted you, showed you a bad face. It was my immaturity."
Cheng Su brushed it off and said nonchalantly, "Well, as long as you know it, I accept your apology, and be more respectful to me in the future."
"Yes!" Qi Fengping gritted her teeth, "I will respect you like a mother."
Because you deserve it.
Cheng Su waved her hand and said, "Alright, if you live well, your brother and I will worry less, and that’s good for us. Little sister, remember, life is yours, don’t care too much about how others see you. Take me and you, if I kept dwelling on it, wouldn’t I be depressed to death? Now you’ve made a glorious comeback, just go on your path and let others be jealous!"
Qi Fengping laughed, nodding in agreement.
