Chapter 329 Send You to Study
“Where are you going?” Xia Xiaoluo’s goggled at Ouyang Ziqian. She was reluctant to let him leave after she knew that Ouyang Ziqian was leaving.
“I have no idea. Maybe I will travel all over Europe or even more places. I want to go for a walk. Don’t you really want me to get relaxed when you gave me so much lame advice just now? I think after travelling around, maybe I’ll be much better.” Ouyang Ziqian said with a smile. But the smile was not so natural.
“How long will you go? When will you come back?” Xia Xiaoluo continued to ask.
“I don’t know! Maybe a few weeks, maybe a few months, maybe longer…” Ouyang Ziqian still smiled rigidly.
“Don’t you come back to Y Country specifically for your study? If you go to travel, what about your study?” Xia Xiaoluo seemed very anxious. She didn’t want Ouyang Ziqian to leave here like this. She would be worried about him.
“I don’t know! In fact, in my opinion, although the study is very important, it is not the most important thing. I won’t give up what I like for it. I won’t let it become my burden. So this time, I choose to travel first. I can only think about my study when I come back.” Ouyang Ziqian shrugged his shoulders and continued to drink the coffee.
“You don’t know anything!” Xia Xiaoluo also drank the coffee angrily. She was not as elegant as Ouyang Ziqian, she just finished it in one breath. It seemed that she could erase all the displeasure in her heart.
“Xiaoluo, you don’t have to worry about me. My parents already knew it. They both agreed. I’ll tell grandpa about it tomorrow morning. I believe that he will agree as well. Moreover, I won’t lose contact with you. If you have troubles, you can contact me by phone or through the Internet at any time. If you want to talk with me, I’m always here. My mobile phone will be available for you for 24 hours.” Ouyang Ziqian looked at Xia Xiaoluo. He was looking at her with love, but their relationship couldn’t be changed.
“Have you really made up your mind?” Xia Xiaoluo asked.
Ouyang Ziqian nodded, “Yes! Frankly speaking, I seldom travel, and I haven’t been to many countries. I also want to take this opportunity to go out for a walk to broaden my horizon. It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.”Read latest chapters at listnovel.com
“But it’s going to be the New Year soon! Aren’t you staying at home? Grandpa, uncle and aunt will miss you. Taotao and I will miss you, too. We are reluctant to let you leave!” Xia Xiaoluo asked with depression.
“Maybe I will leave after the New Year. Maybe I will come back before New Year. Maybe I will enjoy the New Year alone outside. Even if I don’t come back for the New Year, I will give you and our family a video phone call. It’s the same as I am at home.” Ouyang Ziqian said with a smile.
“How can they be the same? You promise me that you will come back before the New Year. You are Taotao’s uncle now, so you have to give Taotao the lucky money!” Xia Xiaoluo found a contrived excuse.
“OK. I will prepare the lucky money and gifts for Taotao!” Ouyang Ziqian would never forget this. Although he couldn’t go home, he could also do it. But Xia Xiaoluo couldn’t think of it.
“OK. You should remember to take photos and send them to me. I will show them to Taotao, grandpa, uncle and aunt. You should share your journey with us!” Xia Xiaoluo said. She had accepted the fact that Ouyang Ziqian was going for a long journey.
Xia Xiaoluo thought that Ouyang Ziqian’s words were reasonable. She just hoped that after this journey, Ouyang Ziqian could put everything down and start a new life for himself. Of course, she hoped that Ouyang Ziqian could find someone he liked during the journey and bring her home.
Ouyang Ziqian sent Xia Xiaoluo back home, but he was still sad and confused.
In the early morning, after breakfast, Ouyang Ziqian talked with Ouyang Feng. Then he left home alone to start his lonely journey.
Seeing the back of Ouyang Ziqian, Xia Xiaoluo prayed for Ouyang Ziqian secretly in her heart.
“Grandpa, it’s the New Year two weeks later. Do you think that my cousin can come back to give Taotao the lucky money?” Xia Xiaoluo asked, pouting her mouth and holding the sleeping little guy in her arms.
“Ha ha, you are a little miser!” Ouyang Feng began to laugh.
“I’m the miser for my baby Taotao. I want to save money for him to marry to his wife when he grows up.” Xia Xiaoluo joked. The little guy in her arms sneezed and continued to sleep. It seemed that the sneeze was a strong dissatisfaction with his mother’s plan for his future.
Although Ouyang Feng agreed at Ouyang Ziqian’s journey, he still felt that he was reluctant to see his grandson leave home. He was worrying about Ouyang Ziqian at the beginning, but he became happy again after hearing Xia Xiaoluo’s joke.
“Don’t worry! Even there is no lucky money from his uncle, my lucky money must be the thickest and biggest. Just let your miser mom save money for Taotao.” Ouyang Feng seemed very happy.
“Who wants to marry a wife? Did I mishear? Taotao?” Ouyang Mingyu came.
“Uncle, you din’t mishear. It’s Taotao. Although Taotao is still young and he has no ability to work. As long as he is under age, he can ask the adults for the lucky money at New Year. Taotao can save money from childhood and marry a wife when he grows up.” Xia Xiaoluo continued to joke to make them happy.
“Your grandfather said that he was going to give the most lucky money to Taotao, right?” Ouyang Mingyu asked.
Before Xia Xiaoluo answered, Ouyang Feng said hurriedly, “I have to give the most lucky money to Taotao this year. If you dare to give more than me, you are unfilial.”
“No matter how old and respectable or how young and humble you are, he can give the most lucky money to Taotao.” Ouyang Mingyu also teased Ouyang Feng, he wanted to comfort Ouyang Feng’s mood.
“No. No. No. The thickest and most lucky money of Taotao this year must be from me, his great-grandfather!” Ouyang Feng insisted.
“Dad, the most lucky money for Taotao’s one month old and one hundred days old are both from you. It should finally be my turn for the New Year’s lucky money.” Ouyang Mingyu also didn’t want to give Ouyang Feng another chance and continue arguing with him.
Xia Xiaoluo felt good when she heard their bickering like this. They didn’t know that Taotao was awake. He also smiled at his great grandfather and great-uncle. He was very happy too.
Feng Manni heard their talking as well, but she didn’t join in them. She only pitied on her son. Ouyang Ziqian went for journey alone just because Xia Xiaoluo was his cousin. She was not interested in giving the lucky money to Taotao. Instead, she took Xia Xiaoluo’s joke seriously, she thought that Xia Xiaoluo was asking them for money. She felt disgusted about Xia Xiaoluo’s behaviors.
“I’m not feeling well. I’ll have a rest first.” After Feng Manni saying, she went back to her room. But no one cared about her words. They continued discussing the affairs of Taotao.
“Humph! Xia Xiaoluo, it’s because of you that my son left home for a long journey and even gave up his study. Now the whole family is around you and that little guy. My son and I have no place in this family. Xia Xiaoluo, I will drive you out of this family by myself. Just wait and see!” Feng Manni said to herself in the room, throwing her pillow violently. She dared not to throw any china, because it would make noise. It was difficult to deal with it if someone heard this.
“Xiaoluo, you have saved so much money for Taotao. Does Taotao have to use money to attract the girls to marry him?” Ouyang Mingyu joked.
“Money! The more, the better. Taotao also needs money to go to school, to eat and to buy clothes.” Xia Xiaoluo said with a smile.
“You don’t have to worry about it. I have told you about it for many times. Taotao’s education is a big event of the Ouyang family. I will talk about this with the education experts and make a personalized education plan for Taotao. You can also partic.i.p.ate in the discussion at that time. In short, it must be the elite education.” Ouyang Mingyu said.
“By the way, Xiaoluo, I forgot to tell you something.” Ouyang Mingyu patted his head.
“What is it? Uncle, tell me now!” Xia Xiaoluo asked hurriedly.
“The Universities of Y Country will start soon. I helped you to get in touch with a school to study accounting. I think girls are careful and it’s good to manage money and accounts. And now you start to save money for Taotao. That’s the potential of being an accountant.”
“In addition, the second major I helped you choose is dance. It includes ballet, cla.s.sical dance, Latin and so on. You can choose one from these by yourself.”
“Meanwhile, I also helped you to sign up for the amateur cla.s.s of Western baking and cooking.”
When Ouyang Mingyu finished, Ouyang Feng nodded with satisfaction.
“Xiaoluo goes to learn accounting. Later, she will be the chief housekeeper of the Ouyang family. As for dancing, it can cultivate her temperament. As for cooking skills, when she learns well, she can cook for me. Well done this time!” Ouyang Feng gave his son an approving look.
“Grandpa, uncle, I have no problem learning to dance or cook. But as for the accounting, I’m afraid that I can’t learn it well.” Xia Xiaoluo frowned.
“Dancing and cooking are learning for fun. They are just to cultivate your temperament and meet your hobbies. Learning accounting is your main task.” Ouyang Mingyu said.
“Uncle, I didn’t study well when I was a young. I was bad at math. It’s a joke that I save money for Taotao. I am afraid I can’t study accounting well.” Xia Xiaoluo kept shaking her head when she spoke.
“You need to study because you don’t know. You can learn it. Even from scratch!” Ouyang Mingyu said.
“Yes. You must be confident to yourself, Xiaoluo. You are my granddaughter. There is no problem for you to learn it well.” Ouyang Feng said.
“Can I change the major?” Xia Xiaoluo asked with depression.
“You can study the finance or management?” Ouyang Mingyu gave Xia Xiaoluo two choices.
“Finance and accounting are almost the same! As for management, I can’t manage myself well. How can I manage others? What’s more, I don’t like to manage others.” Xia Xiaoluo still refused.
“What’s more, my English is so poor. I can’t understand it at all!” Xia Xiaoluo said with depression.
“Oh, right! I forgot this. You can go to learn the language first after the New Year. When the university starts in September, you’ll go to the university after learning the language well. During this period, you can think about what major you would like to study in business. Remember that your major must relate to business, so that you are prepared for working for the family business.” Ouyang Mingyu said.
“Well, I know!” Xia Xiaoluo answered with depression. She hated studying most. She didn’t expect that even she came to Y Country and became a mother, she still could not escape the tragedy of studying.
