My Sweet and Charming Wife

Reincarnation Chapter 220

C220 – Yuehuan You Are Crazy about Wanting to Get into University Right

She wasn’t waiting for the post office, but for Zhang Shufen. Zhang Shufen had gone shopping with the neighbor’s aunt, and now she was back. Seeing her arrive, he acted as though she were an unexpected visitor. He noticed her empty hands and, with a look of disdain, said, “Seriously, Yuehuan? I’ve heard you’ve been making quite a bit of money lately. If you’re earning so much, why do you come back to your mother’s house empty-handed? Couldn’t you at least bring a fruit basket? It’s not like you have to bring anything back with you. Why are you so stingy?”

Gu Yuehuan remained silent, but before she could respond, Gu Yuewei interrupted while munching on melon seeds. She smugly said to Zhang Shufen, “Mom, you got it wrong! My sister didn’t come back to visit. She came to ask if we’ve received her admission letter! How ridiculous! If we’d gotten it, we would have told her already. Why would we hide her admission letter? What would be the point?”

Zhang Shufen burst out laughing upon hearing this, “Yuehuan, are you alright? Are you losing it over wanting to get into university? I know your sister got in, and you didn’t, which must be tough for you. But you can’t be like this—how could the post office come this late? The sun’s about to set. If they haven’t come by now, they won’t be coming. Do you really think we’d hide your admission letter? Why do you even need it? Could you even pass? Maybe it’s for some obscure school anyway. What’s the point in hiding it? Could it be better than your sister’s?”

Zhang Shufen’s comments caught the attention of the neighbors. One of them asked out of curiosity, “Yuehuan, did you really not pass? My son said your grades were better than Yuewei’s in school. Yuewei got into university, so how could you not? It doesn’t seem possible.”

Zhang Shufen was displeased by this. She was always protective of her younger daughter, so when she heard this, she was quick to retort, “How could her grades be better than my Yuewei’s? Your son must have made a mistake. My Yuewei has always outperformed her. My younger daughter has always been smarter than the elder one. There must be some error. Look, the deadline’s passed. If the post office didn’t send it, it must mean she didn’t pass!”

“That must be the case. If she didn’t pass, there wouldn’t be an admission letter. Maybe I was mistaken, but Yuewei is really bright. She’s been eloquent since she was young, so it’s only natural she got into university. Yuehuan, don’t be too upset. If you didn’t get in this year, there’s always next year. Besides, you’re making money now, so it doesn’t really matter. You’re already married into a good family.”

When Gu Yuewei heard the word “married,” it was like a thorn in her side. She still couldn’t accept being compared to Gu Yuehuan. She curled her lips and sarcastically said, “That’s right. Why did you marry into such a good family? She’s just a high school graduate, not even close to my level as a college student civil servant. How could she be worthy of me? I can’t wait to look down on you in the future!”

Zhang Shufen, hearing this, pretended to scold Gu Yuewei by pinching her hand and said, “What’s wrong with you? Your sister didn’t do well in her exams. Are you trying to comfort her or provoke her? Why are you saying such hurtful things? Your sister is already upset about not doing well, and now you want to make her even more upset with your comments?”

Gu Yuewei caught on and covered her mouth in mock regret, “Sorry, I spoke without thinking. I brought up my sister’s sore spot. It really must have hurt her to not pass the exam. But don’t worry, sister. It’s enough that I’m the one going to university in our family. We don’t need two of us attending such a good school. At least our parents can be proud of that, so don’t be too sad.”
