"If those brats see this, I'll make sure they get more beef next time!"
"I made it!" Lu Zhixia picked up a cleaver and started cutting the meat. "From now on, not only will there be beef, but if I had known in advance they would also have ribs."
Zhou Yong was very moved when he heard this. Since Aunt Xia came to their side, their family's life has undergone earth-shattering changes. His mother is now willing to use more oil when cooking.
Dad is now willing to buy them some snacks or give them a few cents, something that has never happened before.
"I don't need to eat beef on my birthday—that's too extravagant!"
"I want to eat beef, I want to eat big chunks of beef!" Zhou Qiang said in his childish voice. "I want to grow up to look like a big yellow ox, so I can earn lots and lots of money, and then I can spend it on my parents and Aunt Xia!"
"You're such a smooth talker, what will you be like when you grow up!" Lu Zhixia joked. "You'll never have to worry about finding a partner!"
Zhou Qiang felt the same way, but in fact, he didn't fall in love at first sight and marry his wife until he was 30.
The soup noodles are topped with a fried egg and slices of beef, and garnished with chopped green onions and cilantro. This breakfast is unique in the tenement building.
Passersby would glance at them and think their meals were too good, making their own carefully prepared breakfasts seem unappetizing.
Gu Huailin ate a big bowl of noodles. He never dreamed he could eat such delicious noodles for breakfast. He almost licked the bowl clean.
Lu Zhixia wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, then said to Su Lan, "It's his first day of school, I'll take him there first!"
Su Lan said, "Go quickly! Be careful while riding your bike on the road."
Lu Zhixia went back inside to get her schoolbag, then looked the child up and down to make sure there was nothing wrong before leading the child downstairs.
When neighbors greet her and some compliment her on how cute her child is, she feels happy too.
They quickly arrived at the school gate on their bicycles. They had indeed left home quite early, as there weren't many people at the gate yet.
When Lu Zhixia saw the convenience store open, she led her child over. Seeing that the stall owner was a middle-aged woman, she greeted her warmly, "Good morning, sir!"
Luo Yue: "Hello! What would you like to buy?"
Lu Zhixia said, "I need a pencil case, 10 pencils, two erasers, and a pencil sharpener. Also, please provide me with some notebooks for homework, the kind they usually use."
Luo Yue thought to herself, "Wow, a customer already! So she prepared the items according to the customer's request."
"These things cost 2.2 yuan."
"Give me a few more notebooks, let's make it three yuan!" Lu Zhixia said.
"You're such a generous mother!" Luo Yue finished matching the notebook. "Then I'll be generous too, I'll give you one for free. If you buy like this again, I'll give you another one!" She glanced at the child next to her. "This kid looks a bit unfamiliar. Has he never bought anything from me before?"
Lu Zhixia said, "Yes, he's never been here before. If you see him in the future, please help take care of him!"
Luo Yue took out a bag and packed the things. "No problem, with you saying that, I'll definitely take care of things. Besides, the child will be studying here for several years, and will be a regular customer of mine in the future. I guarantee it!"
Lu Zhixia saw a large candy jar and said, "Just put over 100 yuan worth of candy in it for me."
"Great!" Luo Yue felt incredibly lucky today. She got a huge order first thing in the morning, more than she had sold in the whole morning.
Lu Zhixia enjoys interacting with straightforward people. Carrying her things, she walked with her child into the school, greeted the teachers proactively, and quickly took her child to the classroom.
Instead of leaving immediately, she sat down to the side and waited until most of the children had arrived before standing up and smiling at them, saying, "Come and get some candy, I'll give you some!"
Gu Huailin felt his social anxiety kick in; all the children in the class were looking at him, and then they all ran over to him happily.
Lu Zhixia said, "I didn't buy much candy today. So, it'll be 5 yuan for the girls and 4 yuan for the boys. Do you agree?"
The children shouted with joy when they heard that they could get so much candy.
"Agreed! Thank you, Aunt Gu!"
Lu Zhixia thought the title "Mama Gu" sounded nice, so she handed out candy to them in order until every child had some.
Just as she finished doing all this, the teacher arrived. Lu Zhixia quickly and enthusiastically went over and stuffed a handful of candy into the teacher's hand as well.
"I'm entrusting my child to you!"
Looking at the candy in her hand, Teacher Hu thought to herself, "This parent is really enthusiastic."
"No problem, don't worry!"
Lu Zhixia said, "Then I'll be going now, teacher. You can tell me if you need anything after school."
He glanced back at Gu Huailin, who waved to him, and then left the classroom.
She needs to go to the court to submit the case first.
