Chapter 16: Turning the Corner

Everything else was fine, but Wang Shengnan was worried about his mother's family affairs.

She has a sister named Wang Dingnan, and her husband is the excellent teacher Tang Yuanming. The couple has a lovely daughter named Tang Jiaojiao.

They seemed to be a happy family, but they were in trouble because Wang Dingnan acted inexplicably and always imagined that her husband was having an affair.

Wang Shengnan also tried to persuade her, and even scolded her sister Wang Dingnan for "not living a good life", but it had no effect.

When she returned to her home, she said helplessly to Lin Dawei: "If it's always like this, I think it's really embarrassing!"

"Every family has its own troubles. If you go back more often and try to persuade her, your sister will listen." Lin Dawei said casually.

"How can I hear it?" Wang Shengnan said helplessly, "She is always suspicious."

"That's an anxiety disorder." Lin Miaomiao interjected.

"Go away!" Wang Shengnan said dissatisfiedly, "How old are you to understand this?"

Lin Miaomiao curled her lips, not daring to argue with her powerful mother.

When she returned to school, she ran into Tang Yuanming in the corridor and felt awkward for no reason.

After saying hello and walking away, she still looked a little uneasy.

"Miaomiao, I think you have something on your mind." Qian Sanyi approached and asked.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Lin Miaomiao whispered what she had learned from her mother, and then continued: "Teacher Tang looks okay, but why doesn't my aunt look down on him?!"

"You're right! The problem lies with your aunt!" Qian Sanyi replied after thinking.

Blinking, Lin Miaomiao looked up at him: "Am I right? Does she really have an anxiety disorder?"

Seeing him nodding solemnly, she asked nervously: "What should we do?!"

"Don't worry." Qian Sanyi replied seriously, "My father knows a psychologist who has special medicine for this condition."

After thinking about it, he warned again: "This is very simple. Don't tell your family. When the time comes, just say that those medicines are for calcium supplements. After taking a few pills, your aunt will no longer be so manic." "

"Oh. But be sure not to have any side effects." Lin Miaomiao warned her.

Wang Dingnan does have mental illness. Her illness was caused not only by her own lack of good control, but also by her family's lack of understanding and care for her.

Mental health should receive more attention. According to statistics from previous years, the prevalence rates of mental health disorders are approximately 17%, 17.2%, 17.5 and 17.8% respectively. Multiply these figures by the total population and you get a staggering figure.

Having a disease always makes you and your family worried and distressed. Mental illnesses are more likely to have more dire consequences.

Because of Wang Dingnan's disease, it will cause tragic consequences such as family breakdown and separation of flesh and blood.

No matter what the reason was, Qian Sanyi would never let her family of three have to separate again. He received the special medicine reward from the system and gave it to Lin Miaomiao.

Taking advantage of her free time on the weekend, Lin Miaomiao said she was visiting her aunt and gave her a white medicine bottle.

"This is a special calcium supplement. Auntie, don't you often have shoulder pain and knee pain? This is a special medicine." She took it out and handed it to Wang Dingnan.

Tang Yuanming was not at ease with this overly lively niece, so he checked and confirmed online based on the brand of the medicine bottle.

"How's it going? I've confirmed it a long time ago. It was introduced by our classmate!" Lin Miaomiao said confidently.

"Which classmate?" Tang Yuanming asked casually.

Lin Miaomiao rolled her eyes and couldn't speak.

"No need to ask, it must be Qian Sanyi." Lin Dawei said.

Sticking out her tongue, Lin Miaomiao said no more.

After taking this medicine, Wang Dingnan's calcium supplement problem was unknown, but his mental state returned to stability.

Facing her changes, Tang Yuanming found it unbelievable.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Wang Dingnan asked doubtfully.

"Why do I feel like you have changed?" Tang Yuanming looked at his wife carefully.

"Really? How did it change? Has it become better or worse?" Wang Dingnan found it funny.

Tang Yuanming looked at her easy-going and gentle demeanor and thought he was crazy - his wife always made troubles unreasonably. Was that caused by her, or was it caused by herself?

The two of them looked at each other tenderly, their faces flushed, and their hearts and bodies filled with heat.

"Dad, Mom, what are you looking for? Let me take a look too." Five-year-old Tang Jiaojiao asked curiously, looking for abnormalities on her parents' faces.

There is definitely no abnormal change in appearance. It is the uncontrollable expression of two people falling in love with each other.

"Jiaojiao, hurry up and wash up and go to bed." Tang Yuanming took the initiative to pick up his daughter and go to wash up. Wang Dingnan over there looked at her with warmth and love in his heart.

The relationship between Wang Dingnan and her husband Tang Yuanming was quickly restored. The two of them talked and laughed happily, and others would blush sometimes when they saw it.

Wang Shengnan never heard another complaining call from her parents, asking her to go back and teach Wang Dingnan a lesson.

Lin Dawei felt that she rarely returned to her parents' home, and asked strangely: "I said, why don't you mention your sister?"

"Why are you so embarrassed to mention it?!" Wang Shengnan laughed and waved his hands, "Those two people are strange! They were so noisy before. Now they are even more enthusiastic than when they first got married! Look! If I don’t go down, I can’t stand it anymore and I don’t even dare to go back!”

Lin Dawei heard her exaggerated words and couldn't help but come closer and said with a smile: "If you say that, it seems like we are so estranged. Come on, let's go back to the time when we first got married."

"Get out of the way!" Wang Shengnan quickly avoided and shouted in a low voice, "Their two children, Jiaojiao, is only five years old; what about us? Miaomiao is already sixteen!"

Lin Dawei put away his joking expression and sighed: "That's right! My child is already in his second year of high school. Sixteen? He will soon be seventeen!"

Parents lament this, but children always think that they are not mature enough and want to grow up as quickly as possible.

"Qian Sanyi, don't talk about it. Compared with the original condition, one of my aunts is in the sky and the other is in the ground!" Lin Miaomiao spread her arms and gestured respectively.

"Well, I'm talking about very simple things. So, you have to be targeted when doing things. If you use the right method, such as solving a math problem, it will be easy." Qian Sanyi replied casually.

"Yeah, brilliant!" Lin Miaomiao gave him a thumbs up.

"Okay, there's no need to mention this matter again." Qian Sanyi said instead, "The school is organizing a 'New Year's Party' party. Have you thought about what kind of program it will be?"

Of course, Lin Miaomiao doesn't need to say much about having fun. She confidently put her hands on her hips and said, "You don't even need to ask about this, just follow along and cooperate!"

The school organizes such activities, and each class has different forms of programs to participate.

As the leader of the school dance troupe, Deng Xiaoqi is quite confident about winning the first prize at this party.

"Deng Xiaoqi, what program do you want to present?" Jiang Tianhao asked with a smile.

"What about you?" Deng Xiaoqi asked.

"I'm going to have a cross talk with Qian Sanyi!" As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Tianhao himself started laughing.

Deng Xiaoqi pouted: "Can you two talk about cross talk?"

Jiang Tianhao just laughed, and she asked again: "Where is Lin Miaomiao?"

"Damn it, she said she wanted to do a group dance." Jiang Tianhao then laughed.

"Can she still dance?" Deng Xiaoqi also laughed.

————Only willing to be the first

Because of her expertise in literature and art, Deng Xiaoqi must show off her talents at the school's New Year's party.

In order to achieve the effect of shocking everyone, she directly chose a dance program for herself to participate in the city competition, which won her first place.

At the performance, Deng Xiaoqi's dance program really made the teachers and classmates cheer. But she failed to use this program to make herself famous in school.

Because the program that ranked first in this party was Lin Miaomiao's "Struggled Chicken". In terms of dance choreography and movements, she and other students participating in this group dance are definitely not as professional as Deng Xiaoqi.

But Lin Miaomiao and others dressed in chicken costumes and performed vividly made the teachers and students feel that this dance group was not only lively and cute, but also full of high fighting spirit.

The organizers announced the results, and Deng Xiaoqi felt very complicated. She witnessed the lead dancer Lin Miaomiao, participating students Jiang Tianhao, Qian Sanyi and other students receiving the first place award.

Deng Xiaoqi, like other students, gave Lin Miaomiao and her team members warm applause with a smile. But her heart was full of regret, even a little annoyed.

When she asked Jiang Tianhao before, she clearly heard that he wanted to have a cross talk with Qian Sanyi.

Deng Xiaoqi, who had always secretly liked Qian Sanyi, saw that he not only did not talk about cross talk, but instead accompanied Lin Miaomiao and acted as an ordinary backup dancer in an orderly manner.

Could it be that Lin Miaomiao and Qian Sanyi did this on purpose?

Deng Xiaoqi, who struggled with this, was secretly angry at Lin Miaomiao, Qian Sanyi, and Jiang Tianhao.

The result of this is that Deng Xiaoqi not only left the WeChat group with several friends, but also distanced herself from them in reality.

Qian Sanyi was naturally indifferent to this, and Jiang Tianhao must have felt very disappointed. Where is Lin Miaomiao? This careless girl was even more angry at Deng Xiaoqi's inexplicable "betrayal".

Amidst this misunderstanding, Deng Xiaoqi simply stopped having any contact with them.

Self-improvement requires strength, especially strong self-confidence and strong psychological endurance.

Deng Xiaoqi continued to maintain her arrogant, self-admiring and self-respecting flower god style, and went her own way in school.

But she didn't expect that an undercurrent of terrible rumors was quickly approaching her, making her feel ashamed.

Deng Xiaoqi's mother, Deng Xinhua, met a greedy boss while connecting Jiang Qilong and his wife with businessmen. That man's words and deeds were bad, but Deng Xinhua's heart secretly fell in love with him because of his money.

This person forced Jiang Qilong to sell the brand to pay off his debts, causing Jiang Qilong and his wife to go completely bankrupt and lose the brand they had struggled to start a business with.

Deng Xiaoqi's mother, Deng Xinhua, received some introduction fees from Jiang Qilong and the evil boss, and even stayed in hotels with the latter.

She may have done something like this before, but it was not as eye-catching as this time. Because the boss has a certain reputation, and "Deng Bancheng" is also highly recognizable.

When the two were entering and exiting the hotel, they were discovered by acquaintances and the news spread among the society.

Deng Xinhua was naturally looked down upon even more, and Deng Xiaoqi also suffered overt and covert cynicism and even abuse from her classmates because of her mother's incident.

She was in so much pain that she couldn't get comfort from anyone. She originally knew that her mother was always talking and doing things, but she didn't expect such a bad thing to happen.

When she went home and faced her mother, she didn't know what else to say, so she just stayed on campus. But in school, she was also alone and had to bear the contempt of her classmates.

After this happened, Jiang Tianhao tried to care about her. But as soon as he approached Deng Xiaoqi, she quickly dodged him.

Thinking about it, Deng Xiaoqi is now being publicly displayed. If Jiang Tianhao gets closer to her, wouldn't it just add some unfriendly talking points to everyone?

Jiang Tianhao had no choice but to retreat and bless her in his heart.

After Lin Miaomiao learned about this, she was first shocked, and then angry with Deng Xinhua. She went home and mentioned the incident to her parents and expressed her anger.

Due to her daughter's immature mentality, the kind-hearted Lin Dawei made effective efforts to persuade her.

Although Lin Miaomiao was angry with Deng Xiaoqi for betraying the original foursome, she still felt that she was indeed innocent and pitiful.

After returning to school, she first communicated with Qian Sanyi: "Qian Sanyi, how should I comfort Deng Xiaoqi?"

"No need to say anything specific. Just pretend that nothing has happened, so that neither party will be embarrassed." Qian Sanyi looked at this kind and lovely girl and said.

During lunch time, Deng Xiaoqi sat alone at a table in the cafeteria and had lunch. Not only was there no one sitting next to her, but several female classmates were not far away, making judgments about her and saying unpleasant things.

"Xiaoqi, do you always eat so little?!" Lin Miaomiao appeared in Deng Xiaoqi's sight with a smile on her face, carrying a sumptuous dinner plate.

In her surprised eyes, Lin Miaomiao calmly sat beside her and kept talking and laughing.

With Deng Xiaoqi feeling abandoned by everyone, I am afraid that she will not be able to find suitable words of gratitude to express her mood at this moment in her life.

Lin Miaomiao seems weak, but to Deng Xiaoqi at this time, there is no doubt that she is the sun and rain, the towering trees, and the towering mountains.

Her eye circles were red, and before she could respond, she saw the "two mountains" again, and bravely sat across from her - Qian Sanyi and Jiang Tianhao.

After this incident and the test of several other incidents that happened before, these four teenagers may not seem to have changed in appearance, but their minds have undoubtedly matured a lot.

Deng Xiaoqi's condition improved a lot, and with the encouragement of Lin Miaomiao and others, she plucked up the courage to go home and communicate with her mother, Deng Xinhua.

Regarding her own scandal, Deng Xinhua also wanted to treat Deng Xiaoqi as a child, saying that it was accidental and emphasized that it was her helpless act as a single mother.

"Mom, don't think about lying to me anymore! Don't you know that the things you did will have a great negative impact on me?!" Deng Xiaoqi said angrily while crying.

Deng Xinhua was also embarrassed, but he could not scold the child too much because he had indeed gone too far.

"Not all other people's families may be rich, but the parents of my classmates are all doing ordinary jobs and living ordinary lives!" Every word Deng Xiaoqi said with blood and tears shocked Deng Xinhua. and shame.

When her children grow up, they have to take art exams again - this means that Deng Xiaoqi is likely to become a star in the future, or at least a public figure.

And what a negative impact it would have on her if her mother had a bad reputation!

"Mom, let's just live like ordinary people and stop being envious and vain. Okay?!" Deng Xiaoqi cried heartily, and Deng Xinhua couldn't help but hug her and cry together.
