Today, many people have come, and the Su family is unusually lively.
Grandpa Su had been generous and hospitable since he was young.
Now that the family's conditions are good, he naturally doesn't mind having more guests.
Moreover, when these guests arrived, they all brought gifts.
Su Changjiu originally wanted to help the Su family, but he didn't know how to do any of these things, so he could only find a seat and sit down.
He was stunned to see so many guests at the Su family's full moon banquet, and the gifts they brought were all extraordinary.
He originally thought that the Su family had only been in the capital for a few years and shouldn't have met many people.
He didn't expect so many distinguished guests to show up.
Su Changjiu didn't know these people, but after being a village cadre for so many years, he had some basic judgment.
The more he felt that these people's identities were unusual, the more uneasy Su Changjiu, a farmer by birth, felt.
His daughter, Su Xiaocao, felt just as uneasy as Su Changjiu.
Compared to her father, Su Changjiu, Su Xiaocao had seen more of the world.
Although she didn't know the exact identities of these people, Su Xiaocao could tell from their attire and demeanor that they were definitely not ordinary people.
She subconsciously felt that these people had very high status, and some were even people she should be grateful to see even once in her lifetime.
Being with these outstanding people made her feel more like an ugly duckling.
Especially when she saw the generous and confident Li Jianhong, Su Xiaocao felt even more inferior.
Su Xiaocao knew Li Jianhong. She had met her once at school and knew that she was Su Ciliang's girlfriend and the future daughter-in-law that the Su family had already approved.
But she didn't know that this girl, like herself, was born in a rural area in the northwest.
She saw a confident and dazzling radiance in this girl.
Seeing a girl of her age so outstanding, Su Xiaocao nervously rubbed the corner of her clothes and lowered her head.
She wished she could hide herself completely.
Today, she realized how big the gap was between herself and the Su family. They were once the same, but now there was such a big difference. Su Dan Novel Network
Never mind, fortunately, after a few months, she would be going back, and there might not be many opportunities to see each other again.
Su Sangong saw Su Xiaocao standing alone in a corner, feeling uneasy, but he was too embarrassed to approach her himself.
Since that awkward encounter, Su Sangong had keenly noticed that Su Xiaocao wanted to avoid him.
Although he didn't know why Su Xiaocao, with whom he had always had a good relationship, had suddenly acted this way, he respected Su Xiaocao.
He didn't want his rash behavior to cause Su Xiaocao more profound unease.
Looking at Su Xiaocao, who was out of place and uneasy in this environment, he couldn't help but recall his own situation years ago when he first arrived in the capital.
At that time, he wore washed-out clothes and stood in the beautiful campus, feeling just as uneasy.
"Xiaotian, I think Xiaocao looks a bit uncomfortable. Can you help look after her?"
Since he couldn't approach her himself, Su Sangong could only ask for Su Xiaotian's help.
Su Xiaotian hadn't noticed Su Xiaocao's unease. After Su Sangong's reminder, she followed Su Sangong's gaze and indeed saw Su Xiaocao looking very uncomfortable.
"Third Brother, why don't you go over yourself?"
Su Xiaotian looked curiously at Su Xiaocao, then at her own third brother.
"I'm busy, aren't I? Xiaotian, hurry up and go take good care of Xiaocao. I'll go pour some water for the guests."
Su Sangong hurriedly took the teapot from Su Xiaotian and was about to pour water.
Su Xiaotian shook her head speechlessly. Her third brother was truly interesting.
She didn't think much of it and walked through the crowd to find Su Xiaocao.
"Sister Xiaocao, why are you still standing here?" Su Xiaotian asked, taking Su Xiaocao's hand.
"I..." Su Xiaocao stammered.
"Come, Sister Xiaocao, I'll find you a seat. You should sit down first. There are many guests today, so you need to take good care of yourself!"
Su Xiaotian scanned the surroundings. Her original plan was to settle Su Xiaocao at Su Changjiu's table, but that table was already full, and it was all elders.
Suddenly, Su Xiaotian saw Teacher Xie Nan.
There was an empty seat at Teacher Xie Nan's table, right next to Teacher Xie Nan.
Several female teachers from the school were sitting at this table, and Su Xiaotian had met most of them.
Intellectuals were all very amiable.
"Teacher Xie, Teacher Zhu, Teacher Du, hello. This is my sister, and I'll have to trouble you all to look after her today."
Seeing Su Xiaocao's attire and uneasy expression, Xie Nan already understood Su Xiaotian's intention.
This must be a girl from the countryside who was clearly not used to such an environment.
Teacher Xie Nan appeared cold on the outside, but she was actually warm-hearted.
Especially when she saw Su Xiaocao at first glance, she liked the little girl.
A shy and timid girl, completely different from Su Xiaotian, but not unlikable; instead, she gave a very gentle impression.
"Hello, my name is Xie Nan, and I'm Xiaotian's teacher. You can just call me Teacher Xie." Xie Nan proactively pulled Su Xiaocao to sit in the seat next to her.
Su Xiaotian was a little surprised by Teacher Xie Nan's proactive and enthusiastic greeting of Su Xiaocao.
"My sister's name is Su Xiaocao, and she's also a teacher, but a high school teacher," Su Xiaotian introduced again. "She teaches at a high school in the provincial capital and is here for training at Beijing No. 7 Middle School."
Everyone at the table were university teachers, so they naturally weren't very interested in a high school teacher.
However, being sent from the provincial capital to Beijing, especially for training at a school like No. 7 Middle School, she must be a very good teacher.
At that moment, several teachers smiled and greeted Su Xiaocao.
Su Xiaocao was initially very apprehensive. These teachers should all be university teachers, right?
Although Su Xiaocao lacked confidence, she was actually very smart. Even though Su Xiaotian hadn't explicitly said it, she immediately understood.
"Xiaotian, you go ahead and be busy. Don't worry, we'll take good care of your sister," Xie Nan said to Su Xiaotian with a smile.
