Chapter 142 New Year's Money

...Children with hearing problems are easier to control.

What a coincidence.

She knew a little girl who had poor hearing and was studying in the affiliated primary school.

Xu Jiqing’s training camp will not end until the 29th. Will Xu Jiaojiao also attend daycare during the winter vacation?

If Xu Jiaojiao was also on that school bus, if she hadn't passed by the entrance of the attached primary school yesterday and hadn't asked Su Lijun to get off...

Where will the little girl spend the New Year this year?

In her previous life, she only drove the person away temporarily. What happened later? Is that person still at large?

It was just an imagination, but Su Xia was already scared to the point that her hair stood on end.

She forced herself to calm down and asked, "Who was arrested, the tall one or the short one?"

"That's not clear."

Su Lijun scratched his head. "I only heard that these two people were not accomplices at all. The other one was a real online ride-hailing driver who was also deceived. They thought he was a kind fellow villager and asked him for help."

"No help whatsoever."

Su Xiaojuan had been quite quiet until now, but now she was furious. "What kind of help can you get from peeping at other people's children at the elementary school gate?"

"But he said the child was his."

Su Lijun said, in a casual tone, "He said that he had been divorced for several years and his wife was too strict and wouldn't let him see her. He missed his child so much that he couldn't eat or drink. He had no choice but to come to the gate of the attached primary school."

"I just wanted to say a few words to the child and leave. I was afraid my wife would see me, so I asked a friend to keep watch."

Su Xiaojuan: "Where is this person now?"

"Everyone is busy interrogating wanted criminals, so who has time to take care of him?" Su Lijun said, not taking it seriously. "But we found out he was incarcerated for some minor offense before, and they released him after a few questions."

It may just be that the situation is similar, but I heard these words with my own ears.

Su Xia's head still buzzed.

-

This year's New Year's Eve, Xu Jiqing stayed at home all day.

This is the first time that Xu Jiaojiao has been in urgent need of money for moving since her ear injury.

Lin Yuezhen didn't let him go into the kitchen to help. For the first time, Xu Jiqing acted like a real high school student. He took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, sat in front of the TV, and leaned casually on the sofa.

The towel covered most of his face. He wiped his hair twice and casually flipped through the messages on his phone.

There are those sent by Lin Langfa.

Happy New Year, Disney Prince Consort! I've designed a couplet for you!

[First-class admission is too easy, the best in the country is easy to get]

[I’m done writing, isn’t it cool?]

There is also a picture attached below.

The inkstone, red paper, brush, and large running script characters look quite authentic.

The horizontal banner was a picture of stick figures kissing, saying it was both sloppy and serious, and the drawing skills were only better than 3% of primary school students in the country.

Xu Jiqing read it for a while, clicked on the quote, and asked, "What is this?"

Lin Lang replied, [Princess Belle and her husband [grin]]

[I specifically chose the original skin before I became a prince, mainly to wish you to take off and become a prince.]

[How is it? Are you feeling overwhelmed by emotion?]

Xu Jiqing: ...

He curled the corner of his mouth and casually sent an emoticon of "Congratulations on your prosperity."

Socializing takes up too much energy, and few of the new classmates from other schools that he met during the training camp have his contact information.

The remaining unread messages are basically from the original S class.

Each person put one message there, and except for a few that had obvious signs of being sent in a group, the rest were text messages of blessings to him wishing him good luck in the national competition. The chatter was so intense that it looked strangely lively.

Even Jiang Zhihao, a previous graduate who had some unpleasantness that year, sent a message of support:

I'm sorry about what happened back then.

You are really amazing. It is my honor to have taken turns teaching questions in the same class with you.

【Come on, junior.】

Originally, Zhang Yue was inexplicably diligent and made an appointment with him for a class. However, not long after the message was sent, Zhang Jianyuan got the message from somewhere and intercepted him.

I quickly sent him a voice message, "Don't pay attention to it. That kid had a quarrel with his mother and is crying. He's running away from home."

Followed by two red envelopes.

I guess the red envelope cover was changed by my children at home. The Q-version zodiac is so cute and festive to look at.

Whenever there is a festival, Zhang Jianyuan and Coach Hu like to send red envelopes in the group. Everyone gets a share and it depends on their luck. The most they can get is only five or six yuan. It’s mainly for the atmosphere.

Xu Jiqing thought it was the same this time.

After clicking it, a golden animation rotates and the maximum limit is two hundred.

He returned the money with a transfer of the same amount.

Zhang Jianyuan ignored him and continued to do his own thing. "...How old are you and I? Are you planning to give me a New Year's gift?"

"Not much, I just wanted to thank you for taking care of Zhang Yue for me this year. That kid is very naughty. If he's not walked, he'll get into all sorts of bad habits. If he's walked too hard, he'll throw a tantrum and cry. His parents and I are at our wit's end, except for you."

"Don't think about anything during the Chinese New Year this year. Relax and keep your mind steady. If you have any difficulties, tell your teacher."

"Once you win the competition, you can register at school six months in advance. You'll have the chance to earn as much money as you want."

Seeing that Xu Jiqing only replied with a thank you, he didn't say anything else for a long time.

Zhang Jianyuan pressed again, "The other one is for your sister. Children have human rights too. As a brother, I can't refuse on behalf of others."

Xu Jiqing was speechless.

He has no choice.

You can only accept the red envelope, remember the favor and return it later.

After flipping through the messages, he leaned back and casually replied to a few important ones.

He went into the bedroom and took out a stack of cash he had taken out earlier, counted two bills, stuffed them into a brand new red envelope, and took it out together with the one he had packed earlier.

The community they live in now is close to the city center.

Looking up from the balcony, you can see the New Year fireworks on a corner of the river. Unlike before, all the good views were completely blocked by the chaotic neighboring buildings.

The bang of New Year’s fireworks is mostly just a noise.

While waiting for the Spring Festival Gala to begin, Xu Jiaojiao stepped on a small stool, holding the bowl of meatballs fried by Lin Yuezhen in advance, and ate while leaning on the window, looking out curiously, her big eyes a little dazed.

Xu Jiqing knocked on the window glass.

When the little girl came back to her senses, she handed over two red envelopes stacked together, "This year's New Year's money."

"...Why two?"

Xu Jiaojiao was confused.

It took him a long time to come up with an explanation. His big eyes twinkled and he asked excitedly, "Did Sister Xia Xia give me the other one?"
