The newly bought mobile phone has several applications. Lin Qingyin tried them one by one and found it quite fun. She recalled the spelling rules of Pinyin from her memory. After fiddling for a long time, she finally typed out Chinese characters and send her very first WeChat message to Fatty Wang: You should memorize the book first.
Fatty Wang, who was lying in bed in his room with air conditioner and playing mobile phones, when he saw this sentence, his hand shook. His brand new mobile phone slipped from his hand and fell on his big fat face. Fatty Wang covered his nose and cried after sitting up with desperate expression. If he had a good brain, he would have been admitted to the university that year!
Lin Qingyin couldn’t help but chuckle at the cute and funny emoticons sent by Fatty Wang. Now, in the mortal world, although the spiritual energy was thin, making it hard for her to cultivate, everyone was smart. They invented different interesting things. Well, some meals were also delicious!
Suddenly, there was a sound of a key opening outside the door. Lin Qingyin pushed her mobile phone under the pillow and opened the door of her room, then she called the woman, who was carrying a bag of vegetables ‘mother’.
The parents of the original owner and Lin Qingyin’s parents in her previous life were very similar. Although Lin Qingyin can’t figure out what was her relationship with the original owner, she has to say that having a similar-looking parent can make her integrate into this family faster. At least, there was no pressure when calling them “dad” and “mom”.
Lin Qingyin’s mother couldn’t help but be surprised when she saw her daughter came out to say hello to her. Lin Qingyin shut herself up in the room most of the time after she jumped in the river. She and her husband were busy at work. The three of them had too little time to meet. They have no time to have a good chat together.
After putting the bag of vegetables in the kitchen, Lin Qingyin’s mother carefully took out half of the watermelon and cut it into small pieces, and then brought it to Lin Qingyin: “I came out early from work today and went to the vegetable market to buy a few more dishes. I will make some delicious food for you in the evening.”
Thinking about the taste of the boiled vegetables she usually eats, Lin Qingyin didn’t have much hope about her mother’s craftsmanship. She always thought that the food in this world was very unpalatable, but after eating those delicious meals this noon, she realized that the food was innocent. Lin Qingyin’s mother simply has terrible workmanship.
Looking at Lin Qingyin sitting on the sofa in a daze, Lin Qingyin’s mother urged softly: “Eat this watermelon. When I bought this, I choose the one from the refrigerator. It’s still cold.”
In the past life, this kind of fruit with no spiritual energy, will not be sent to Lin Qingyin. In the memory of the original owner, she only ate watermelon a few times these years. Their economic status can only provide their basic food and clothing. Fruits have already been characterized as luxury goods.
Lin Qingyin took a bite of watermelon. It was sweet and juicy, the taste was pretty good. She even ate three pieces before she wiping her hands, and then she turned her head to look at her mother: “Is all the debts at home have been paid off?”
Lin Qingyin’s mother, who picked up the dishes, looked up and faced her daughter, who was sitting on the sofa. After thinking for a while, she put down the dishes and sat on the small bench opposite to Lin Qingyin.
“Qingyin, Mom, and Dad are sorry for you.” Lin Qingyin’s mother looked guiltily at her daughter wearing an old dress. She said with reddened eyes: “If not because we have to pay off the debt, you could go to Zhongdian High School instead of going to your current school, who are full of bullies.”
Lin Qingyin’s mother said while chocking. However, she seemed to be afraid of stimulating Lin Qingyin, so she forced her emotions down and tried to squeeze out a smiley face: “It doesn’t matter even if you didn’t pass the exam well in the first year, you still have two years before the college entrance exam. As long as you work hard, you can catch up. Qingyin, promise your mother, that you won’t give up like this, alright?”
Lin Qingyin was a little embarrassed: “You want me to continue going to school?” She remembered the memory of the original owner, she said that she doesn’t want to study ever again before committing suicide. Isn’t that counted?
“You don’t have to pressure yourself!” Lin Qingyin’s mother said immediately: “When the school starts, I will talk to your teacher about the students bullying you on campus. I don’t think they will just sit idly. I don’t want you to give up on yourself… …” Lin Qingyin’s mother couldn’t help but cry: “When I think of you ruining your college dream for this family, I wish I could exchange my life to thank you. Mom and Dad are sorry for you!”
Looking at her mother’s hunched back, Lin Qingyin couldn’t help but raised her hand and patted her gently: “Mom, I know.”
Since the original owner’s dream was to enter a good university, then she will complete this dream for her.
Lin Qingyin’s mother cried a bit more and felt relaxed more than before. She went to the bathroom and washed her face. After she came out, she smiled at Lin Qingyin with her red eyelids: “Today, we paid off the last debt at home. Mother will spend more time with you. If you are bullied at school, you must tell us. Although we have no money and no power, we are reasonable. We are not afraid of them.”
Lin Qingyin smiled gently: “You can rest assured that I will not let others bully me again in the future.”

The Lin family was one of the poor families in this city. Lin Qingyin’s father and mother were not highly educated people and can only do the most tiring work to earn a little bit of money. Fortunately, the original owner reciprocated her parent’s hard work and study hard. She even surpassed all the highest scores in the high school entrance examination and got the first place in the whole city.
This achievement was more than enough to enter Zhongdian High School. However, on the second day after the score came out, a teacher in the Admissions Office of Dongfang International High School came to the Lin family. He said that as long as Lin Qingyin is willing to go to their school, not only she will be free of tuition fees for 3 years, she will also receive 100,000 yuan worth of scholarship.
When Lin Qingyin heard that she will receive a scholarship worth 100,000 yuan, she immediately agreed. She wanted to use it to pay off their family’s debt.
3 years ago, Lin Qingyin’s father used all his savings to open a store together with his friends to improve his family’s status in life. But honestly, he didn’t want to do business at all. After a year, his friends ran away with all the money. Her father’s business not failed but he also ended up having 150,000 yuan debt. Lin Qingyin’s parents have been working two jobs to pay back the debts. If she can get this 100,000 worth of scholarship, her family’s debts will be paid off much earlier.
As for the studies, the original owner has never been worried about it. She knows that the level of teaching at Dongfang International High School was also good. It’s just, their students were difficult to manage, so they don’t get good results. As long as she studies well and doesn’t associate with those students, her studies will not be affected.
