Night.
In the freezing cold of winter, when she reached the doorway from school, the sight of her mother's kind face under the light made Xue Yuantong's mood even better.
She quickly jumped off the bike and leaped excitedly in front of her mother: "I'm back!"
Aunt Gu looked at her daughter's clumsy actions and scolded: "Why the rush? The bike hasn't even stopped yet!"
Xue Yuantong didn't care at all: "Mom, don't you know how agile I am?"
Jiang Ning stopped the bike and greeted Aunt Gu.
Seeing Jiang Ning on the bike, Aunt Gu felt very pleased. Her house was quite remote, and the nearest bus stop was on Nanhong Road. Even getting off there still required a considerable walk to the bungalow by the river dam.
Back when Tongtong was in middle school, she always made time to pick her up. If she really couldn't make it, she let her take the bus home. Middle school didn't have night classes, so although life was tough, she managed to balance it.
