Liu Xuewen came down to receive the award. Tian Li whispered something in his ear, and Liu Xuewen immediately looked at Zhao Yujie with sharp eyes.

Zhao Yujie shrank back, then sat up straight again. It wasn't intentional.

Liu Xuewen felt really tired. The quality of these students was so poor, especially the girls who were so troublesome.

It was over, and everyone returned to the guesthouse to pack their luggage. Zhou Xiang looked at the smiling waitress, took out five yuan and handed it to her, "Thank you, sister, for your hard work."

The waiter happily took the money and said, "It's not hard. This is what I should do."

Tian Li asked Liu Xuewen to come down quickly to move things, and Yang Yang also came to help.

Finally, Zhou Xiang’s two large woven bags and two travel bags were carried into the car.

Zhao Yujie felt that the competition was over and there was no need to be afraid of Zhou Xiang anymore, so when she saw Zhou Xiang buying so many things, she started to say sour words again.

"Parents complain about the space the car takes up. Should all these things also be included in the car fare?"

Zhu Tuo felt a headache. It would be better if all girls were like Zhou Xiang! Although she shopped everywhere, she didn't interfere with her studies and she didn't get jealous.

"Zhao Yujie, I can refund all your accompanying teacher's fees and let your accompanying teacher go down. Do you believe me?"

The accompanying teacher is useless. Someone takes care of the students' food and drink, but their grades don't improve and they can't even teach them basic manners. The quality of both the teachers and students in this school is worrying.

Zhao Yujie's accompanying teacher immediately pulled her hand and signaled her to shut up.

"I'm sorry, I'll keep an eye on her."

"Hmph! Tell her to shut up. If you hear her talk nonsense again, you two will get off the bus together and I'll refund you all the money. Aren't you obsessed with money? I won't take a single cent from you."

"Yes, yes." The accompanying teacher nodded in agreement.

But I was complaining in my heart. I should have known not to take this job. Now I was accompanying a delicate young lady and was almost like a nanny, urging her to sleep and waking her up. She didn't even listen to the tutoring classes and thought that she was not her teacher and there was no need for her to listen to me.

Now he even dares to mess with the provincial No. 1 and the Municipal Education Bureau. Is that round ball on his shoulder just a decoration?

Zhao Yujie was furious. Was that what she meant? But she was afraid of being kicked out of the car, so she kept quiet.

Zhou Xiang was helpless. Alas! If you are not envied by others, you are a mediocre person. I am a genius. There is nothing I can do!

They had lunch on the way and arrived at the Municipal Education Bureau at two o'clock in the afternoon. Tian Li asked Zhou Xiang to stay overnight before returning, but Zhou Xiang didn't want to. So Tian Li found a donkey cart for her and Liu Xuewen and she took her to the station to get on the bus.

When I arrived at the county town, it was my home ground. I reached into the woven bag and emptied most of the things out. I tried it and found that I could carry it.

The other one did the same thing, then carried a woven bag on one shoulder and a travel bag in each hand.

When we got outside the station, we called a cart and went to the yard of the Water Conservancy Bureau.

The cart driver stopped the cart, helped take the bag down, took the two dollars and left.

Zhou Xiang quickly opened the gate and carried the bags and backpack into the yard.

Close the gate and put the collected things back into the bag.

Just after feeding Dahuang and Xiaohuang, the gate of the yard was pushed open.

Zuo Heng and Zhou Hua came back from school.

"Sister, you're back? I heard that you went to the provincial capital to compete." Zhou Hua pushed open the gate and shouted happily.

"Yeah! But how did you know?"

"Mom came yesterday. She went to grandma's house during the day and will come over in the evening."

"Oh! That's perfect! I brought a lot of stuff with me and was worried about how to get it back!

There are a lot of things in those two woven bags. You two can empty them out and sort them out. Feel free to take whatever you like."

"Okay, I'll sort it out."

Zuo Heng went into the house, put down his schoolbag, and went into the kitchen to help cook.

Zhou Xiang stopped him, "You should go and sort out the things with my third brother. There are too many things, and he will definitely ask you to come and refer to them together."

Zuo Heng had no choice but to go to the yard and pack things with Zhou Hua.

Zhou Xiang started to cook dinner. Hearing her third brother's occasional exclamations in the yard, she showed a warm smile. It was different from the smile she showed when she was joking around outside. This was a smile that came from the heart.

Zhou Hua picked out a lot of things that interested him, and also picked out a lot for Zuo Heng. There were quite a few small gadgets in the provincial capital, such as stickers and toys.

The most common toys are tin toy cars, which come in all kinds. Some rely on inertia, some are clockwork, and the most expensive one is a battery-powered train that makes a humming sound.

Zhou's mother came over before it got dark, and she felt relieved when she saw her little girl eating.

"You didn't come back for five days, and we were all worried. Your father urged me to come to the county town to wait, and finally I waited for you to come back."

"Oops! We have more time for this competition. We can play one day and rest one day. I forgot to call and let you know."

"You! You run away and never come home. Don't you know your family is worried?"

"I'll be careful next time, I'll be careful, Mom, have you eaten?"

"have eaten."

Zhou's mother washed the dishes. "You guys study when you need to study, and rest when you need to rest. I'll do this little chores."

Zuo Heng and Zhou Hua were doing their homework. Zhou wanted to go back to the west room and put the princess dress in the space into the travel bag. If his mother opened it to check, the secret would be exposed.

After washing the dishes, Zhou's mother came back and saw the bag and bags on the floor of the west room. She asked, "If I hadn't come, how would you have gotten them back?"

"Let's call a donkey cart or a flatbed cart! Call it back, pull it up, and take it to the station."

Mother Zhou saw the automatic umbrella tied together and sandwiched between the straps of the travel bag. "Your sister escaped a disaster. She said if you didn't buy an umbrella, she would beat her. Not only did you buy one, you bought three."

"No, I bought five and left two for Third Brother and Zuo Heng."

"I think you'd better bring a truck with you next time you go out, otherwise there won't be enough for you to carry."

Zhou Xiang nodded, "That makes sense."

Zhou's mother felt helpless and amused. Her little girl spent too much money.

"Are you tired? Go to sleep! You'll be back tomorrow morning. Your family is very worried."

"Okay, these past few days have worn me out."

The next day, after Zuo Heng and Zhou Hua went to school, Zhou's mother listened to her little daughter and called a cart to come in. She took out the travel bags and woven bags, loaded them onto the cart, and went to the station.

When Zhou returned to the town, his father was already waiting at the station. Zhou was surprised and asked, "Dad, how did you know I was coming back today?"

"Ever since your mother went to the county town, I've been waiting here in the morning and afternoon."

"That's perfect, Dad, go borrow a cart. You can't carry the stuff."

Father Zhou got in the car and unloaded the things. "You bought too much, didn't you? Wait, I'll go borrow a cart."

Zhou's father, who came back with the borrowed cart, brought Zhou Niao with him.

"Sister, you're back. I was worried about you."

"It took a while, and I'm sorry to have worried you, brother. I'll be more careful next time."

"Okay! Don't let anyone worry next time."

"Yeah, big brother is right."
