My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 169: Chapter 171: Is it her?

In the afternoon, it was time for cleaning. In the first class, some people fetched water, some swept the floor, some wiped the windows. The junior high school building was newly built, with four floors. The desks and chairs in the classrooms were also new, one for each person. It was not like in primary school where they had to endure broken desks and damaged chairs.

The junior high school was indeed much better than the village elementary school.

When Tang Yuxin got home, Zhang Xiangcao had already prepared the meals.

“Yuxin, you’re back.”

Zhang Xiangcao put the meal in front of Tang Yuxin, “Eat quickly. Your father and your second uncle are still busy in the field. Let’s eat first.”

“Thank you, Auntie,” Tang Yuxin took the bowl and couldn’t help pinching Sisi’s little face which was obediently eating her meal. Sisi lifted her face and gave her an innocent smile. This was what a little sister should be like.

Tang Yuxin gave all the meat in her bowl to Sisi.

“Thank you, Sister,” Sisi squinted her big eyes. Her little dumpling-like behavior was extremely cute and adorable.

It made one want to pinch her a little more, to see if her little face was really as soft as it looked.

“Eat more,” Tang Yuxin patted Sisi’s head and lowered her head to eat her own meal. She absolutely didn’t mention anything about being in the same class as Wei Jiani.

At this time, in the Wei’s family, Wei Jiani was chattering to Sang Zhilan about her school life. She even mentioned that her teacher had chosen her as the cultural commissioner. Hearing this, Sang Zhilan felt a sense of satisfaction.

Although they had put a portion of their family income into their daughter’s piano lessons, over the years, it had made their life somewhat tight. But watching their daughter grow up day by day, she had been the pride of their home since primary school. No matter how hard it was for the adults, it was worth it.

“Mom, I met someone today.”

Wei Jiani picked up a piece of meat with her chopsticks and put it in her own bowl. There wasn’t much meat left in the plate, and she didn’t consider saving some for others. Everybody in her family always made way for her. Naturally, she was the one who ate the meat.

“Who?” Sang Zhilan brought the meal over. The other bowl was for Wei Tian. Wei Tian hadn’t returned yet, but they were saving it for him. However, whether Wei Tian was back or not, it didn’t affect Wei Jiani eating first. Sang Zhilan had no issues with it. They had always been like this, and they couldn’t let their daughter starve just because Wei Tian wasn’t home yet, could they?

The entire Wei’s family was centered around Wei Jiani. They only had one child. If they didn’t dote on her, who would they dote on?

“Mom,” Wei Jiani put down her chopsticks, “Wasn’t there a girl who lived in our house before, called Tang Yuxin?”

Wei Jiani felt almost certain. Although she couldn’t remember what she looked like, she did remember her name. And the girl who lived at their home back then was very dark-skinned, darker than the coal at home.

With a clatter, the chopsticks in Sang Zhilan’s hand fell onto the table.

She quickly picked up her chopsticks and got herself some dishes. Her fingers were shaking a bit, “Why do you ask about her?”

On hearing the name Tang Yuxin, it was like touching a sore spot in her heart. She didn’t know whether it was regret, shame, or resentment. If it hadn’t been for what happened back then, she wouldn’t have had to work so hard. She would’ve had someone at home to help her, to look after Nini, and she would’ve been able to earn more money.

In her entire lifetime, she would never forget how capable Tang Yuxin was at home.

It was as if she had found a piece of gold but ended up discarding it like a stone. Over the years, she had been filled with regret. Beyond that, as for any mother-daughter affection, she really didn’t have any left.

All her motherly love in this life had been given to Wei Jiani. As for Tang Yuxin, she probably had forgotten what she looked like.

“Mom, is that her?”

Wei Jiani pulled Sang Zhilan’s sleeve.

“Why are you asking about this?”

Sang Zhilan smiled at her daughter, but her smile clearly revealed a hint of awkwardness.

“She’s in my class. She comes from Li Tang Village. A complete country bumpkin,” Wei Jiani scorned, “She’s so ugly, as black as if she hasn’t washed herself.”

“That’s true,” Sang Zhilan reached out and pinched Wei Jiani’s face, “Our Nini is the most beautiful child. Who can compare with her?”

Her words indeed made Wei Jiani beam with delight. She knew she was very fair, especially when compared to those from the rural areas, she was simply as white as flour.

In school, as in elementary school, Wei Jiani was still like a blessed person, getting everything she wanted. She was beautiful and was the backbone of the cultural committee in her class. During the school’s first opening ceremony, she played the electronic piano, which immediately made her famous throughout the school. Naturally, she was the new school beauty.

However, even the school beauty had her downsides, such as during the midterm exams, her results were not satisfactory.

Although in primary school, she was always among the best, either ranking first or second. But junior high was different, as it brought together students who were either last in their class or the top performers in primary school.

The once undefeatable Wei Jiani encountered a setback, ranking just within the top five. If it had been just that, there wouldn’t have been an issue. After all, she was still within the top five, which was a decent achievement.

But it just so happened that she ranked behind Tang Yuxin, who was often called “Little Blackie.”

This midterm exam basically determined the academic standings of the entire class. Nobody expected the unremarkable Tang Yuxin to rank fourth in the class. And her scores in each subject were pretty even, even the usually difficult English, she scored a ninety.

Tang Yuxin put her report card in her bag, not feeling proud about her achievement. It was her second time attending junior high school. If she couldn’t achieve good grades, she might as well reinvent herself.

Moreover, her grades in her previous life were not bad, it was just because she couldn’t perform better than Wei Jiani. She couldn’t have higher scores than Wei Jiani. Otherwise, Wei Jiani would be upset, Sang Zhilan wouldn’t be happy either and would assign her more chores, leaving her no time to study.

However, she had a solid foundation in learning, her comprehension and logical thinking skills were good. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to catch up with the course curriculum that she’d missed within a year, and even got accepted into a prestigious medical college. She eventually became a very good internal medicine doctor.

She turned around and happened to face Wei Jiani’s angry face. Tang Yuxin lifted the corners of her mouth slightly.
