Chapter 1174 The greater her achievements, the more regret they felt.
When the elderly Su couple heard their eldest granddaughter pleading that she missed them, they finally agreed without hesitation.
The old lady said, "Alright, your grandfather and I will go to the capital!"
The old man said, "Then when your uncle comes back later, I'll have him book our plane tickets."
Su Xing said, "No need for my uncle to book the plane tickets, Grandpa and Grandma, I'll book them for you!"
As she spoke, she rolled over, got up, and jumped off the bed.
She turned on her computer and asked the two elderly people, "When would you like to come over?"
Grandpa Su said, "Any day is fine. We'll go on whichever day you choose."
Grandma Su said, "Give us two days to pack our luggage. We also need to tell your uncle and aunt that we need to ask them to take care of the chickens and ducks at home."
Su Xing searched the flight information and said, "Then I'll book you tickets for the 21st."
Today is the 19th. She gave her grandparents two days to pack, and she felt it was about time.
The old lady said again, "Oh dear, I need to go to the city to buy some clothes."
Su Xing said, "Grandma, you and Grandpa should just wear down jackets. You don't need to bring any other clothes. I'll take you to buy some when we get to Beijing."
Her grandparents had been to H city in winter and had thick down jackets that they could wear. They would buy new ones when they got to Beijing.
The old lady said, "You silly girl, you don't need to worry about me..."
"I love taking care of things, so just listen to me, Grandma!" Su Xing used her charm again.
Grandpa Su said to his wife, "Oh, just listen to Xiaoxing! Let's go there as soon as possible!"
"Then... let's do it."
The elderly couple couldn't resist their eldest granddaughter's pleading and eventually gave in.
Su Xing booked tickets for the elderly couple from Hongcheng to Beijing on December 21st, at noon. The flight time was a little over two hours, and they would arrive in Beijing at 2:10 pm.
The elderly couple from the Su family needed to travel from Jiujiang to Hongcheng to catch a flight, but she was worried that booking too early would put them in a rush in the morning.
After she booked the tickets, she sent a screenshot of the flight information to her grandmother's WeChat account.
"All booked! I'm waiting for you!"
She made a heart shape with her hands for the two elderly people in front of the camera.
The elderly couple couldn't stop smiling as their eldest granddaughter amused them.
"Okay, wait for us."
See you in the capital in a few days.
The three of them chatted for a while longer before hanging up.
Only Su Xing and Zhang Caifeng were in the dormitory.
Seeing that Su Xing had hung up the phone with her grandparents, Zhang Caifeng said, "Su Xing, you and your grandparents have such a good relationship. Unlike my grandparents, they don't really like me. Even though I'm the best student in the family and I got into Peking University, they still say with regret, 'If only I were a boy, that would truly bring honor to the family...'"
Her tone was full of envy.
Although her grandparents treated her much better than when she was a child after she started high school and the school waived her tuition, they would still sigh at her sometimes, and she felt sad and helpless every time.
Su Xing said, "Actually... in the province where my grandparents lived, the preference for sons over daughters was also very serious. My family is considered relatively open-minded. My grandparents were intellectuals with some education in their time. They valued education. My parents' generation also read a lot of books. In our generation, my family also believes that education is the most important thing. I think this is an important reason why my family is open-minded."
There was another reason she didn't mention: the Su family had always owned a tea plantation, and later, her grandfather not only inherited the Su family's tea-making skills but also did a good job in business, so the family wasn't short of money.
Cultural nourishment, spiritual enrichment, and economic stability are the cornerstones for cultivating a magnanimous personality and open-mindedness. Only in this way can one broaden one's horizons, become more tolerant, and naturally dissolve prejudices against women.
Zhang Caifeng said, "You're right. My grandparents weren't very educated and never left our small town their whole lives. Their level of understanding was limited, and some of their ideas were so deeply ingrained that they could never be changed in this lifetime."
She knew that the better she did and the more successful she became, the more her elderly family members would regret it.
Su Xing said, "The older generation's perceptions are inherently marked by their era. Their ideas are shaped by their past experiences, making it difficult for them to break free from their preconceived notions. This is not your problem, and it doesn't matter if you can't change it. As long as we know how we should think and act, that's enough."
Zhang Caifeng nodded, "You're right. I stopped hoping they would change a long time ago. I will live my life well and raise my descendants well."
The two girls looked at each other and smiled.
Su Xing tidied herself up, put on her coat, and prepared to go to the lab.
Zhang Caifeng also got dressed and prepared to go to the study room to study.
They went out together.
After separating from Zhang Caifeng, Su Xing sent a voice message in the family group to tell her parents that her grandparents would be coming to Beijing in a couple of days.
The child's mother: "Are your grandparents going to Beijing for a trip?"
The child's mother said, "Then you take good care of those two old folks! Buy them some warm clothes."
Xiao Xing: "Okay! I'll take good care of them!"
The child's father: "How many days will they stay in Beijing?"
Xiao Xing: "Probably one or two weeks."
The child's father: "It's fine to let them come to your place for a visit. Your grandma came to our house for Chinese New Year the last time she went on a long trip."
The family of three chatted for a few minutes before going about their own business.
Upon waking up and arriving at the laboratory, he quickly immersed himself in the repair work.
It's past ten o'clock.
He Xu came to pick up his girlfriend.
He brought Bu Diu along, and after calling her, he waited for her at the school gate.
Su Xing put away the antique books and tools and left the laboratory.
As soon as he stepped out of the school gate, he saw He Xu holding his hand tightly.
Budiu was very excited to see its mother, wagging its tail like a propeller and making "ooh ooh ooh~" noises all the time.
Su Xing quickly took a few steps.
He Xu also came forward with Bu Diu, saying, "Bu Diu and Ban Jiao Shi have missed you these past two days, so I brought Bu Diu along to pick you up."
Su Xing reached out and patted the big dog's head, finding it somewhat amusing. "So only they miss me?"
He Xu's ears turned red, "Of course I miss you more..."
"That's pretty much it..."
Su Xing took the leash from He Xu, and He Xu took his backpack.
The two people and the dog walked towards the apartment.
Su Xing told He Xu about her invitation to her grandparents to come and travel.
He Xu said, "Grandpa and Grandma are coming? That's great! I can show them around while you're in class."
Su Xing said, "Then I'll have to trouble you then~"
He Xu smiled and said, "This is what I, as your grandson-in-law, should do. How could it be hard work?"
