The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

Chapter 1172 A Big Red Envelope

Grandma smiled so much her eyes narrowed into slits: "You're all so disappointing, but Yingying is so proud. I have such a granddaughter, how can I not be happy?"

Yang Shanchuan immediately explained, "That's definitely not what I meant. What I meant was that you're really too excited."

"I can't be bothered to talk to you." Grandma took Shen Yingying's hand. "Yingying, I heard people talking about college entrance exam travel. Do you want to go on a trip?"

Shen Yingying shook her head: "I'm not going. I need to go to work and learn new things."

Grandma said, "There's no rush to learn things. You're still young. There will be times when you need to do chores later. It's perfectly fine for you to play more now."

Shen Yingying said, "Grandma, people travel to have fun, but I don't feel happy when I travel, so I don't go."

Grandma was both pleased and heartbroken: "You're such a good child, so ambitious."

Shen Yingying liked herself very much. She smiled at her grandmother and asked, "Grandma, did you come to visit me on purpose?"

"Yes, but I also brought a small favor." Grandma pulled Shen Yingying to sit down on the sofa with her. "Grandma has a relative who is about to have a baby. I heard that you were the top scorer in the province, and I hope you can go and hold the baby."

Shen Yingying corrected her grandmother's thinking: "Grandma, that's superstition. Even if I hold that child, the child might not necessarily be any better."

Grandma said, "Everyone understands, but isn't this just to have a good meaning? Besides, if you go to help, they will give you a red envelope as a thank you. They won't let you help for nothing."

Shen Yingying thought for a moment and said, "Grandma, I know about this, but I want to discuss it with my sister. I'll tell you when we've discussed it."

Yang Shanchuan couldn't help but say, "You're hesitating because you're getting a red envelope? If it were me, I would have agreed immediately."

Shen Yingying glanced at Yang Shanchuan, but didn't respond to him. She continued talking to her grandmother, "Grandma, I'm going to find my sister right away. You go ahead and do your work. I'll call you when I have the results."

Grandma nodded: "Okay, go ahead. Grandma is going to get some eggs for the cafeteria."

……

Shen Yingying went to find Shen Xuening, and Yang Shanchuan went with her.

"Cousin, is there something you need from my sister?" Shen Yingying looked at Yang Shanchuan. "I haven't seen you in a long time."

"I came to see you. I heard you got the top score in the province, so I had to see you properly." Yang Shanchuan was quite proud. "From now on, I have a sister who's a top scorer in the province. I'm so proud! Tell me, how did you study? We use the same characters, how did you do so well?"

Shen Yingying jokingly said, "It's a matter of talent."

“That’s true.” Yang Shanchuan didn’t refute it. “Your grades have always been very good, but I didn’t expect you to surpass everyone else.”

Shen Yingying corrected, "Don't say that. I just did better on the test than others. I'm not as good as others in many other aspects. Everyone has their strengths."

Yang Shanchuan said firmly, "Even so, I think an outstanding person is someone who is better than others in every aspect, and you are that kind of person."

Shen Yingying was quite pleased to hear this: "Thank you for the compliment, but I think it's better to be more humble."

Yang Shanchuan nodded: "Don't be modest, haha."

Shen Yingying suddenly stopped in her tracks: "I'm going into the factory right away, are you really okay?"

"It's nothing," Yang Shanchuan emphasized. "I really came to see you, why don't you believe me?"

Shen Yingying didn't dwell on it any longer: "Now that you've seen me, I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

Yang Shanchuan suggested, "Shall we have lunch together?"

Shen Yingying thought for a moment, then said, "No, I have something to do at noon, so I won't go with you. You should go have lunch with your girlfriend."

Yang Shanchuan asked in surprise, "How did you know I have a girlfriend?"

Shen Yingying laughed heartily: "Everyone knows, okay?"

Yang Shanchuan was happy at the thought of his girlfriend, so he said, "Okay, okay, I won't take up any more of your time. I'm going to find my girlfriend."

"Bye-bye." Shen Yingying waved to Yang Shanchuan, then put on her work badge and walked into the factory.

……

Shen Xuening was in a meeting with her employees. Shen Yingying was waiting for Shen Xuening outside the meeting room. After half an hour, Shen Xuening came out of the meeting room: "Yingying, what are you doing here?"

"I came here specifically to see you." Shen Yingying stood up and walked towards Shen Xuening. "Sister, I have many questions I want to discuss with you. Do you have time?"

“I was busy before, but I’m free now. What do you want to ask? Let’s go to the office and talk about it.” Shen Xuening pulled Shen Yingying to the office.

After they left, the employees started talking.

"Look, the provincial champion! I've only ever seen news about champions online before, I never thought I'd see a real provincial champion in person this time."

"Yes, this is the first time I've been so close to becoming the top scorer in the province. I feel lucky."

"Look at her brain, how can it be so smart? If my son were half as smart as her, I would be laughing in my dreams."

"The provincial top scorer has a bright future ahead of him!"

"When my daughter is on vacation, I will definitely let her come and see the top scorer in the province, make friends with him, and give him some encouragement."

"..."

Everyone was filled with envy.

Amidst envious glances from everyone, Shen Xuening and Shen Yingying walked into the general manager's office.

Shen Xuening spoke first: "Yingying, your classmate Tang Yi contacted me and said he wants to intern here. He'll do whatever you do."

Shen Yingying was quite surprised: "He really told you?"

Shen Xuening grabbed a can of drink and gave it to Shen Yingying: "I already told you, you came to me first thing this morning. I was going to call you over, but I had a meeting, so I was delayed. Even if you hadn't come to me, I would have called you anyway."

Shen Yingying exclaimed in surprise, "He's so brave!"

Shen Xuening replied, "I think it's commendable to have the courage to bravely pursue what you want."

Shen Yingying exclaimed in surprise, "Sister, you're encouraging him?"

Shen Xuening explained, "I'm not worried about him, I'm just stating the facts. Don't treat him as a suitor, just treat him as a classmate. Isn't that brave?"

Shen Yingying's eyes widened: "Sister, how do you know he's a suitor?"

“It’s obvious he likes you.” Shen Xuening said clearly, “Actually, having suitors isn’t a bad thing. It’s a reflection of your charm. Everyone needs these external things to motivate them. As long as you understand what you’re thinking and know what you want, that’s fine.”

Shen Yingying seemed to be deep in thought.

Shen Xuening continued, "Yingying, Tang Yi wants to intern with me. Would you agree?"

Shen Yingying looked at Shen Xuening for a while before saying, "Sister, this is your company, you should make the decision."

Shen Xuening laughed and said, "I have to give you face."

Shen Yingying laughed and asked, "Sister, what do you think of Tang Yi?"

Shen Xuening answered truthfully, "He's courageous, responsible, and knows what he wants, just like you, and works hard for it. He's a good person." Then she changed the subject, "Yingying, if you don't like him pursuing you, just tell him clearly, understand?"

Shen Yingying said helplessly, "Sister, I've told him, but he won't listen. I really don't know what to do."

Shen Xuening said, "We can make an agreement and let time test or fade things out. Tang Yi is good; I think he's quite promising."

“Then…” Shen Yingying hesitated.

Shen Xuening said, "Think it over carefully. I'm leaving the decision about Tang Yi to you. Let me know when you've made up your mind. But they're still waiting, so you need to decide quickly."

Shen Yingying became annoyed: "Sister, I understand."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "The older you get, the more troubles you have. You need to learn to grow up."

Shen Yingying pursed her lips and couldn't help but sigh.

After a while, Shen Yingying spoke up: "Sister, some media outlets have contacted me and want to interview me. Should I agree?"

Shen Xuening asked, "Do you want to be interviewed?"

Shen Yingying shook her head: "I don't want to."

Shen Xuening decisively said, "Then I'll refuse."

Shen Yingying asked with distress, "Sister, what about the school's arrangements? Many people want to interview me, but I've already turned down many."

Shen Xuening said nonchalantly, "You can go to the school and share your thoughts, but that's just my suggestion. It's up to you. Go if you want, don't go if you don't. Our Yingying has the right to be willful."

Shen Yingying thought about it carefully: "I should still go and check on the school, since there are teachers there."

Shen Xuening said, "Sister still says the same thing: you can go if you want, or you can not go if you don't want to. You can be willful."

Shen Yingying felt a warm glow in her heart: "Thank you, sister."

Shen Xuening patted Shen Yingying's head: "Why are you being so polite with your older sister?"

"By the way, sister," Shen Yingying told Shen Xuening about her grandmother's visit, "sister, should I go? If I go, will people think I'm only after the red envelope?"

Shen Xuening advised Shen Yingying to be more realistic: "It's all about the red envelope. Who would do something without a benefit? It's human nature."

Shen Yingying smiled and said, "Sister, talking to you always makes me feel happy."

Shen Xuening asked, "Are you going?"

Shen Yingying relaxed: "I'll check the time and go when I have time."

Shen Xuening nodded: "Yes."

……

On the morning of the 28th, Shen Yingying filled out her college application. As the top scorer in the college entrance examination, she directly applied for the early admission batch and applied to her favorite university.

Tao Yun called Shen Yingying: "Yingying, today is the deadline for submitting applications for the early admission batch. Have you finished submitting your application?"

"I've filled out the form," Shen Yingying said. "Sister Tao Yun, when are you on vacation?"

Tao Yun's voice was clear and crisp: "We'll have a holiday at the beginning of July, and we'll come back as soon as the holiday starts. What's wrong?"

Shen Yingying said, "Just a little concern, it's nothing."

Tao Yun thought for a moment: "Is there something you want? I can bring it to you?"

"No, I was just asking." Shen Yingying didn't have many thoughts on it. Besides, she could just buy whatever she wanted online. "Waiting for you to come back."

Tao Yun remembered something: "By the way, my aunt said she's going to throw you a celebration to celebrate your graduation. When is it? If it's on the weekend, I'd like to come back and attend."

Shen Yingying replied, "July 1st."

"July 1st?" Tao Yun glanced at the calendar. "Saturday." She thought for a moment. "I don't have class on Friday afternoon, so I'll book the tickets right away and come back to attend your graduation banquet."

Shen Yingying hesitated, "Wouldn't this be too much trouble?"

Tao Yun became excited: "It's no trouble at all, no trouble at all. Wait for me, I'll go buy you some gifts."

Shen Yingying cautioned, "Don't buy anything too expensive."

Tao Yun said, "Within my capabilities."

Shen Yingying was quite happy: "Then I'll wait for you to come back."

"Okay." Tao Yun hung up the phone, then called Shen Weifeng to ask if he wanted to go back. When Shen Weifeng heard that Tao Yun was going back, he also planned to go back, so the two booked tickets and prepared to go home on Friday afternoon.

After filling out her college application, Yang Shanchuan's car arrived. Shen Yingying got out and got into Yang Shanchuan's car: "Cousin, I didn't expect Grandma to call you back to pick me up."

Yang Shanchuan started the car and drove off, feeling utterly helpless: "There's nothing I can do. No matter how successful I am, Grandma always thinks I'm the most idle."

Shen Yingying chuckled: "Haha."

She was going to the hospital to hold her relative's baby, the one her grandmother had mentioned. The relative had called yesterday to say the baby was due today and was already in the delivery room, so she was heading there.

When Shen Yingying arrived at the hospital, she had just reached the door of the delivery room when the nurse brought the baby out.

The child's parents were overjoyed, feeling that Shen Yingying was a lucky star, and immediately let her hold the child.

Shen Yingying carefully took the child into her arms and held him for more than a minute before placing him in his grandmother's arms: "Good boy, little brother, you will get good grades in the future, get into a key university, bring honor to the family, and grow up healthy and strong into a handsome young man."

Hearing Shen Yingying's words of blessing, the child's parents were overjoyed. These were the words of the top scholar, and they were certain that their child would be successful in the future.

After a while, the child's parents gave Shen Yingying a red envelope as a token of their gratitude.

Shen Yingying thanked him, then called Yang Shanchuan and left.

We got into the car.

Yang Shanchuan asked, "Fifty-fifty?"

Shen Yingying laughed and said, "Let me see how much it is." She opened the red envelope and said, "There's quite a lot, 1200 yuan."

Yang Shanchuan was a little surprised: "So much money?"

Shen Yingying said, "I'll add two hundred yuan worth of gas for you."

Yang Shanchuan smiled and said, "That works too."

……

Back home, Shen Yingying told her grandmother what had happened.

Grandma said that she would accept whatever amount people offered without worrying about anything else. Her status was now very important, and not just anyone could get close to her.

Shen Yingying felt a little embarrassed by her grandmother's words: "Grandma, please don't say that outside, otherwise people will definitely think I'm getting arrogant and will talk bad about me."

Grandma, however, was fiercely protective of her children: "If anyone dares to say bad things about you, Grandma will fight them to the death."

Shen Yingying was amused: "Grandma, you're so old. If someone just gives you a light push, you'll fall down. Let's not cause any trouble."

Grandma said fiercely, "It's not us who caused the trouble, it's others. Grandma isn't afraid."

Shen Yingying put her arm around her grandmother's shoulder and coaxed her, "Yes, yes, our grandmother is the best."

Grandma was very pleased with herself: "Alright, Grandma's going to get busy now. If there are any more good things like this in the future, Grandma will tell you."

Shen Yingying was both amused and exasperated.
