Chapter 232: Chapter 232 I Want to Go to College

Lin Jiadong pouted, "Mom told me to find a job, but our family doesn’t have any connections for that, she’s definitely hinting that I should come to you. But Sister, I don’t want to find a job yet, I want to go to college."

Lin Chuxia raised her eyebrows; her brother was straightforward and not dumb, although he hadn’t gone to college in her previous life.

In her past life, she hadn’t become successful so quickly, and at this point she would have probably still been getting up early and staying up late to set up a street stall to sell vegetables with Li Guangyuan. Naturally, Mother Lin wouldn’t have thought about making Lin Jiadong drop out of school to join them.

She remembered that in her previous life, Lin Jiadong had dropped out in his second year of high school, and his grades weren’t bad at the time.

Since she had a bad relationship with her family and went to do business elsewhere, she wasn’t clear on the specific reasons for his dropping out. She only heard a passing mention from someone else, something about a premature love affair.

By the time she heard this news, Lin Jiadong had already been out of school for several months.

Thinking back now, she really didn’t believe the rumor about her naive brother having a premature love affair.

Putting her thoughts aside, Lin Chuxia asked with a smile, "My brother wants to go to college, that’s a good aspiration. Do you have a particular goal?"

Lin Jiadong felt somewhat embarrassed being praised, scratching the back of his head, "I never really thought about it much before, I just figured I’d go to school until I couldn’t anymore, taking each day as it comes. But after seeing my brother-in-law, I sort of want to go to college. Sister, I want to be a capable person like him."

"When did you see your brother-in-law’s capabilities?" Lin Chuxia was amused by him.

Qin Yang was obviously working out of town, and the few times Lin Jiadong had seen him, it seemed to be somewhat unpleasant.

Lin Jiadong insisted, "Brother-in-law is truly capable. I’ve heard that when he was accepted into college, the entire village saw him off with great fanfare. How impressive! And I’ve seen the newspapers. Even though it didn’t say, I know that it was about brother-in-law."

Lin Chuxia was genuinely surprised, not expecting Lin Jiadong’s words to be grounded in reality.

Sun Lanlan came over with meat buns and marinated meat, glad to see the siblings getting along well.

"It’s your second sister who really cares about you, worried you’d be hungry the moment she got back, telling me to fetch you some food quickly. Eat up. If it’s not enough, I’ll get you more."

Lin Jiadong grinned like a simpleton, "Thank you, Sister Lanlan."

Sun Lanlan then asked the server to bring two bowls of soup, and Lin Chuxia pushed one towards him.

"Eat slowly, don’t choke. About going to school, just tell Mom directly when you get back. If she doesn’t agree, don’t get upset with her. The middle school exams are coming up soon, just focus on your exams and try to get into a high school in the county. Then your sister will support both your tuition and living expenses, not just for high school, but if you really get into university, your sister will cover all costs. If Mom really gets desperate and doesn’t let you go to school, just tell her my shop doesn’t hire child labor, and even if you’re not allowed to go to school, there’s nowhere for you to work."

Lin Jiadong was happy about the first part; his mom was opposed to his schooling just because she was worried about the expenses.

But upon hearing the latter part, he started to worry, "If I really said that, Mom would definitely cause trouble for you."

"No worries, you just need to stick to your beliefs."

"Yeah, Sister, don’t worry. I’ll definitely study hard," Lin Jiadong nodded vigorously, his face full of determination.

"Good, your sister believes in you."

Lin Chuxia handed him another meat bun, and Lin Jiadong chuckled, "I’ll definitely get into the high school in the county, so I can regularly come eat meat buns at your shop, Sister."

Lin Chuxia: "..."

This simple brother of hers was indeed single-minded, innocently adorable.
