Chapter 78 Oh dear, that's not what I meant.



Chapter 78 Oh dear, that's not what I meant.

Yao Shuxin and Yao Shuli quickly finished their meal and were sent off by Yao Shula to read and do their homework.

Little Tiantian also took the arithmetic problems that Yao Shula had already written and went to study with her older brother and sister.

My older sister said that a good child is one who studies hard and strives for excellence every day.

His name is Tiantian, so he should study even harder!

...

At the dinner table, Lei Jingwu was still carefully picking up peanuts.

Having finished eating, Gu Changqin was glaring angrily at Yao Shula, who remained calm.

He didn't understand why Yao Shula disliked him.

"Alright! Take your pride out of it! Just because Shura got Xiaoman back, you should talk to Shura properly." Lei Jingwu finally spoke.

Gu Changqin looked at his younger sister Gu Xiaoman, who no longer seemed unwilling, and could only snort.

Gu Xiaoman moved closer to Yao Shula, looking at her with a hint of admiration.

"Shura, your volleyball stand will be open on Sunday, right?"

My brother and I will come to support you then!

Yao Shula was stunned for a moment.

"You play billiards too?"

"Of course we can. We all know a little bit about any ball."

The best player is Lei Jingwu, then my brother, and I can play too.

Jingwu doesn't play often, he's busy running around, but my brother and I play together all the time!

I'm not bragging, but my brother won first place in a game of billiards.

In the recreational ball competition held at the Shanghai Sports Center, my brother fought his way through the competition, leaving all the participants, young and old, behind to win the championship.

"Shura, on Sunday my brother and I are going there to show everyone how we play ball," Gu Xiaoman said with a hint of pride.

Yao Shula's eyes widened immediately.

She quickly looked at Gu Changqin.

"Wow, you're really good at playing billiards!"

Gu Changqin snorted.

"Otherwise what? Lei Jingwu told me that it wasn't fun for him to fight alone over there, so he dragged me here."

Yao Shula thought for a moment.

Whether it's Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin playing together, or Gu Changqin and Gu Xiaoman playing together, it's a sight to behold for anyone!

These three people—the man is handsome, the woman is stylish, and they're from Shanghai.

Isn't that exactly what young people want these days—to be fashionable and trendy?

These three playing ball here all day long would be a living advertisement!

"You really are a hidden talent! You'll have to wait until Sunday!" Yao Shula finally smiled at Gu Changqin.

Upon hearing Yao Shula's words, Gu Changqin immediately straightened his back.

So, even though he knows how to play volleyball, Yao Shula still sees him as a great skill!

"Hmph! You called me a gigolo during the day!" Gu Changqin stared at Yao Shula.

The flexible and adaptable Yao Shula immediately offered an explanation.

"You didn't understand what I meant. What I meant was that you're so outstanding that even the sun can't bear to tan you!"

"You still say I'm looking down on people!" Gu Changqin continued to stare at Yao Shula.

“You’ve got it wrong again. I clearly said you have good eyesight, you can see all the mountains from a high vantage point!” Yao Shula wasn’t embarrassed at all.

Gu Changqin...

This Yao Shula not only has two faces, but she also seems to have a rather thick skin...

"Really? Then there's more..."

"What else? Why are you so long-winded?"

Shura is right, it's just that you didn't understand, you can't tell good from bad.

Okay, take a good rest these two days, then play ball here for a few days. After that, you'll come with me to the south!

The next month will be busy!

As Lei Jingwu spoke, he pulled Gu Changqin and Gu Xiaoman away.

In any case, including him, no one could help Yao Shula tidy up the table.

If the three of them get involved, they'll probably break a few bowls and chopsticks, which would only make things worse for Yao Shula's already struggling family.

...

They didn't stay at Secretary Lei's house; they stayed at the county's guesthouse.

Although it's quite different from their home in Shanghai, at least it's clean.

With Secretary Lei's secretary having made prior arrangements with the guesthouse, the three were quite satisfied with their current accommodations.

Gu Changqin ate a bit too much for dinner, so he took Lei Jingwu outside for a stroll.

"Lei Zi, I'm not trying to be rude, but with your family's connections, getting Yao Shula a decent job shouldn't be a problem at all."

There aren't many factories in Yun County, so your father doesn't even need to ask.

If your third uncle gives you a little hint, there are plenty of people who can arrange a formal job for Yao Shula.

"Isn't it a bad influence that a young girl like her wants to set up a recreational ball stall?" Gu Changqin asked in a low voice.

Lei Jingwu glanced at Gu Changqin.

"Do you think Yao Shula set up a recreational ball stand because she couldn't find a job?"

"What? Isn't that right?" Gu Changqin was a little surprised.

Lei Jingwu had no choice but to recount Yao Shula's family situation...

Gu Changqin's eyes widened as he listened.

By the end, his eyes were practically popping out of their sockets.

Wow, Yao Shula is really something else! She overturned her father's wedding banquet with a kitchen knife and made her father and stepmother spit out their money and jobs.

In the end, he even sold his job...

This is nothing like the image of the desperate older sister she had in mind, struggling to support her younger siblings, having to babysit for others because she couldn't find a job, and having to resort to street vending...

"If what you're saying is true... Yao Shula is a shrewd and calculating person!"

"This girl is no simpleton; she's much better than Xiaoman, who's obsessed with romance." Gu Changqin said immediately.

"So, just give in a little, why bother arguing with them so much!"

"You were in the wrong first today, coming up here and saying that the place was unsophisticated. No wonder they wanted to bury you!" Lei Jingwu said rudely.

Gu Changqin quickly smiled; he was just used to being cheeky!

In the past, everyone would just laugh it off and move on, but who knew we'd run into a tough opponent today.

"Okay, I'll definitely do my best these next few days."

Lei Zi, they've been working so hard to take care of Tian Tian for us. I don't believe you can just help them with something. Just ask me to play a few rounds of ball with you.

"You must have other plans, right?" Gu Changqin said with a smile as he looked at Lei Jingwu.

Lei Jingwu rolled his eyes at him, but still gave him a slight reminder.

"I handled the business registration for her recreation ball."

In addition to applying for a recreation center and a chess and card leisure entertainment business for her, I also applied for a clothing and department store business.

We're supposed to go south to get some goods at the end of this month, right?

Bring some over from the small towns below that sell well.

This is another way to make a living.

Yao Shula even thought of setting up a recreational ball stand; selling other things there would definitely be no problem.

Gu Changqin understood. No wonder Lei Jingwu was in such a hurry to go south again!

"Can you guarantee that Yao Shula has the money to buy the goods? You won't lend it to her under some other pretext, will you?"

“No way! I’ve calculated it, she can come up with at least five hundred yuan right now!” Lei Jingwu said immediately.

Gu Changqin...

"You actually know how much money Yao Shula has? Looks like you two are on good terms!"

"Is it that difficult?"...
