Chapter 23 Bonus, Settlement of Accounts

Others also came up and said some emotional words to Zhang Wanwan, some long and some short. After taking the graduation photos, they really went their separate ways!

When leaving school, Zhang Wanwan took a special look back at her alma mater. If it weren't for the things that happened in her previous life, this school would have left her with only beautiful memories. Unfortunately, her life was not satisfactory in her previous life. She has always been afraid to recall these people and things in junior high school, for fear that she would be suffocated by the pain. In this life, she must remember these beautiful things, and then move forward with her head held high and face everything calmly.

It was almost eleven o'clock. Zhang Wanwan looked down and realized something was wrong! She had to go back to set up the stall.

The first time, Zhang Wanwan rode her bicycle home from school at a speed so fast that Ding Juncai and the others were stunned.

"Fuck! Why didn't I realize before that my goddess can also ride a bicycle like a motorcycle!"

Feng Ying and another girl were riding by on their bikes and happened to hear it. They took advantage of Ding Juncai's unpreparedness and kicked him, then quickly ran away.

Ding Juncai was stunned, then he started to roar, "Feng Ying, you bitch, be careful or no one will want you for the rest of your life!"

Zhang Wanwan, who was running all the way, had no idea that her two good classmates were quarreling again. When she returned to the community, she found that the tricycle stall was gone, but Zhang's father's motorcycle was parked downstairs. When she went upstairs, she saw that most of the things she had prepared in the morning were missing. Zhang Wanwan knew that it must be Zhang's father who set up the stall for her.

Since someone was setting up a stall, she was not in a hurry and simply went downstairs to buy some vegetables to make lunch for Zhang's father and mother.

When she delivered the food to Century Square, Zhang's father was busy packing up the food at the stall. There were very few customers around. Most customers at noon ordered takeout. They have never been idle since they started the takeout service.

"Dad, I brought you food, you go eat and I'll pack it up."

Zhang Wanwan parked her bicycle and took over consciously.

Father Zhang wiped his sweat and grinned, "You've received your diploma and filled out your application. You still have a dozen days to go and relax. I'll take care of this stall for you."

Zhang Wanwan refused directly and said softly, "Dad, I got a bonus of 5,000 yuan when I went to school today. Although it's not much, it's still a lot of money, enough for my three years of high school tuition. I'll show it to you when I get home. And my brother will be back home for more than ten days starting tomorrow. Then we'll discuss what to do with this stall. I haven't calculated the income during this period yet. Let's count the money together when we get back!"

When Mr. Zhang heard this, he was delighted and felt more energetic while eating.

Because Zhang Baiyan was going home after school today, the father and daughter planned to close the stall before 8pm. Unexpectedly, the weather changed at 3pm. It rained heavily for a whole hour. There were no customers, only takeout. Zhang's father simply borrowed a shelter in front of the mineral water store, and he and Zhang Wanwan kept packing. At 6pm, the heavy rain turned into light rain, but there was no sign of stopping. Zhang Wanwan simply decided, "Dad, let's close the stall and go back. Anyway, there are not many ingredients left for today, and I guess Mom and brother will be home by the time we go back."

Father Zhang looked at the sky and nodded heavily, "Okay, let's pack up then."

The two women were almost soaked when they returned home. Zhang's mother felt very distressed when she saw how miserable they looked. Zhang Baiyan had already gone downstairs to help with things.

After Zhang Wanwan and her father finished taking a bath, Zhang's mother immediately brought them two bowls of hot ginger tea and then urged them to eat.

During the meal, Zhang's mother said distressedly, "Wanwan will start school in a dozen days. You've been busy for more than a month, it's time for you to take a break. Look at other people's children, who all go out to have fun during the summer vacation? You're the one who works the hardest!"

Zhang's mother felt very unhappy and eating felt like chewing wax.

Seeing that Zhang Wanwan was unhappy, Zhang Baiyan said, "How about this, I'll be on holiday for the next ten days, and I'll take your place in the stall. You can take a break for a while. Anyway, this stall won't last long, and you'll have to close it down when school starts!"

Zhang Wanwan was in deep thought for a long time. No one urged her and they all ate in silence.

After dinner, Zhang's mother went to wash the dishes and Zhang Wanwan returned to her room.

Zhang Baiyan looked at his father with a puzzled look, "Are you unhappy?"

Father Zhang shook his head and sighed softly. Although he didn't know how much money Zhang Wanwan had made from the stall during this period, it was definitely not a small amount. To be honest, he was reluctant to close the stall, but no matter how reluctant he was, it was not as important as his child's studies.

When Zhang's mother came out after washing the dishes, she learned that Zhang Wanwan was still in the room and she felt a little depressed.

After a while, Zhang Wanwan's door opened. The family of three looked over and saw Zhang Wanwan carrying her big schoolbag in one hand and a bundle of things in the other, including notebooks, pens and the like.

"Brother, bring the calculator from home over here so we can do the math." Zhang Wanwan threw those things directly on the chair.

Zhang's mother's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She quickly opened the door and looked around for a while before closing the door tightly. She said to everyone, "Let's go to our room. If we count here, there might be someone eavesdropping."

A family of three, "."

Because Zhang's mother was suspicious, Zhang Wanwan and others had to move their position according to her wishes.

The family of four got on the 1.8-meter-high bed that Zhang's mother and her husband shared. The quilt and other things had been taken away by Zhang's mother, so the space was still quite spacious.

Zhang Wanwan poured out all the money from her schoolbag amidst everyone's expectant or amused looks.

Zhang's father and mother's eyes widened and their mouths opened wide in an instant, they were so shocked that they couldn't recover.

The faint smile on Zhang Baiyan's lips froze, and it took him a long time to find his voice, "Wanwan! Are these all the money you earned during this period?"

Zhang Wanwan nodded affirmatively and said proudly, "I started setting up the stall on July 5th, and I've been doing it for nearly 40 days now. The business money is all here. I'll count it, and big brother will record it. Dad and mom will sort the change into piles, and 100 pieces will be 100, and 50 pieces will be 50."

Hearing about sorting the money, Zhang's father and mother became very enthusiastic and directly put the mountain of money in front of them. As the saying goes, work is less tiring when a husband and wife work together. After a while, Zhang's mother picked out the hundred-dollar bills first, and Zhang's father followed closely behind to sort out the fifty-dollar bills.

Zhang Wanwan began to count. The number of 100-yuan notes was the least, with a total of 278. The number of 50-yuan notes was more, with 620. The number of 20-yuan notes and 10-yuan notes was even greater, with 1,000 and 18,000 respectively. The number of 5-yuan notes was better, with 2,000. The rest of the change was all one yuan or fifty cents, with a total amount of 7,200 yuan.

After Zhang Baiyan finished recording, he couldn't wait to start using the calculator, muttering, "27800+31000+20000+18000+10000+7200=114000. Oh my god, the total is 114,000. Sister, did you calculate wrong? How can it be so much? It's only been more than a month."
