90s Little Struggle

Chapter 85 Transcript

Xiao Hong was very sure of his cautious approach: "Yes, we can't make it public. Some people go to save money and use urea bags to store money?"

Then he asked worriedly: "Aside from Boss Wu's store, have other stores been stolen?"

Afraid of scaring them, Zhao Laosi quickly explained: "There is nothing else. Boss Wu's family went to a relative's house for a wedding that day, and the door was broken into when no one was at home."

Wu Julan also sighed: "During the Chinese New Year, there are many people and three hands. It's better if we all live in the store like this, but I still want to raise a dog. Do you agree?"

"Okay." As long as conditions permit, Zhao Lao Si seldom contradicts her, and is willing to meet her any request: "Cats come to get rich, dogs come to get rich, we will look for them in the village when we go back."

When they were in the village, they kept cats to catch mice and snakes. They didn't have dogs because they kept geese, and the domineering nature of geese was similar to that of dogs.

After moving to the town, the cat still stayed at home, and the goose became a big goose in an iron pot.

However, most people in the village have cats and dogs. If they want to raise them, they can go back and see who has kittens and dogs, and they can just catch two and raise them.

No matter who makes cats and dogs live in litters, five or six are normal.

Xiao Hong was a little envious of her own mother, who was able to find a man like her stepfather who had a good temper and treated her better.

Originally, she thought that living alone in this life was the most peaceful and carefree.

But now seeing their husband and wife getting along well, I realized that my life in my dream was just a bad life, and I met men who would be violent and perverted at home, and I would meet parents-in-law who didn't treat their daughter-in-law as a human being.

But she quickly threw the thought away, she is still so young, why should she think about it?

Xiao Fang is a very self-disciplined and good girl. Even though it is already summer vacation, she still wakes up at six o'clock, washes up and goes downstairs to help.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, fewer people come out for breakfast, because at this time, every household starts to make delicious food by themselves.

Every household in the town is not as spacious as the countryside. It is unrealistic to raise pigs, unless there are many houses in the family, and there are not many chickens and ducks.

Now it's the Chinese New Year, no matter if you have money or not, you will buy pork to marinate, and eat a few dumplings and wontons first.

I will buy chickens and ducks when I come back, and I can add another dish after the Chinese New Year.

The food at home is rich, so I don't want to be greedy for their dumplings.

So when Xiao Fang came down, there were only five customers eating dumplings, but there were seven or eight customers around when buying braised pork?

She went forward to help settle the accounts, collecting money and changing money.

With Xiao Fang's help, the speed of the lo-mei was quickened immediately. When all the guests had left, Wu Julan immediately brought two bowls of dumplings: "Come over and eat some."

Both father and daughter came and sat down to eat.

Zhao Laosi still did not forget to care about her: "Have you eaten yet?"

"Eat." Wu Julan saw someone coming to ask the price of the lo mei again, and asked them to continue eating, and then went to the front to greet the guests.

Afterwards, customers came to buy lo-mei one after another, but compared to when there was only one lo-mei shop before, the business was still a little bit worse.

An old man came over and asked the price, and he was not happy: "Why do you sell it so expensive? Su Ji sells it much cheaper than you?"

Wu Julan was so angry that she was dying, but her face was full of embarrassment: "The raw materials and seasonings of our stewed meat are very expensive, and we will lose money if it is cheap. I'm really sorry, why don't you buy it over there?"

Anyway, Xiao Hong asked her to say that at the beginning, and Wu Julan was not happy to deal with customers who were bargaining. Didn't she think that this was pushing customers into other people's stores?

But Xiao Hong insisted on saying that if she said this, it would appear that her own materials were good, and it would make people feel expensive for a reason.

What's more, even if the Su family wanted to raise the price, they couldn't.

Moreover, their own family members are confident in their own lo-mei honey juice, and they all think that their own lo-mei is better than Su's.

After Wu Julan finished speaking, she was still a little uneasy. She felt that the uncle in front of her probably wanted to listen to her and go to Su's to buy it.

Unexpectedly, although the uncle complained about the high price of their house with a black face, he still ordered half a stewed chicken, and after paying for the stewed chicken wrapped in dried lotus leaves, he said proudly: "The taste of your house is indeed better. a little."

"Then you can come back later." Wu Julan smiled with the crow's feet in the corners of her eyes: "Thanks to the support from you old customers."

After receiving the guest's affirmation, Wu Julan couldn't mention how beautiful she was. Looking back at the wall clock on the wall, it was already seven o'clock, and she urged Xiao Fang who was washing the dishes: "Aren't you going to school to get your report card today? Look at your sister. The sisters haven't come down yet, Fang, you go and remind me, I'll make dumplings for them."

Xiao Fang responded and went upstairs to call for someone.

In fact, Xiao Hong has already woken up, but it is cold and windy outside, and it is freezing cold, she is really reluctant to leave the warm bed.

When she got the report card, she saw that the seven subjects were not popular, and she instantly showed joy.

Although mathematics and English are only passing, both are in the [-]s.

But this is finally passing.

In addition, she is the best in Chinese, with a score of 92, and several other courses are also hovering between seventy and eighty.

When she went to see Xiao Fang's results, it would make people envious and jealous. The worst was English, which also scored 86 points, and the others were all above 90 points.

The teacher sent out the report card, certificate of merit, and prizes for notebooks and pens.

Xiao Fang was only two points away from the award-winning classmates, and missed the award certificate.

The head teacher didn't delay the class either, and encouraged the students to make persistent efforts, and told the students not to forget to review their homework, so they waved their hands and let the students go back to their respective homes.

Xu Xinning's grades were good, and he got a certificate of three good students and a pen.

Seeing that the teacher had left, he stretched out his long arms, stuffed the pen into Xiao Fang's pocket, leaned over and said in a low voice, "A New Year's gift for you."

Xiao Fang was looking at the handed out English test paper, and refused without looking back: "I don't want it!"

She was a little depressed, not because there were no prizes and certificates, but because with her grades, could she be admitted to the university of her choice?

"Shall I help you review your English during the Chinese New Year?" Xu Xinning looked at her English test paper and understood that it was a pity that she had made a mistake: "Let's imitate the intonation of the voice with the tape recorder and do some listening exercises."

Xiao Hong put her arms around her sister's shoulders: "Okay, let's go buy a tape recorder and English tapes today."

Originally, she had said that she would buy it, but because she didn't like English, she didn't take it to heart.

Seeing her depressed mood now, she felt sorry for her sister.

Hey, there is really no comparison between people.

Like herself, after passing all subjects, she was so excited that she almost floated up.

Looking at my younger sister now, they all got such good grades in the exam, but they still look so regretful.

Xiao Hong put away the report card: "It's getting late, we have to go to the city, hurry up."

If possible, she would not let anyone see her report card.
