Chapter 246 You run around so often
Although Yao Shuli's grades are not the best among the three siblings, her progress is indeed obvious.
After all, there's no one ahead of Yao Shuxin anymore, so no matter how much progress she makes, it won't be noticeable.
Yao Shuli was different. His grades had always been among the worst in the class, but now he was at the middle level. How could Yao Shula not be happy about that?
It seems there's hope for me to get into junior high. And who knows, maybe once I'm in junior high, under Miao Yamin's guidance, I can even get into high school...
"Great, the progress is very obvious!" Yao Shula looked at Yao Shuli's report card and was reluctant to let go of it.
There were also many comments written by Teacher Wang on the report card.
Not the kind of "friendly, positive, hardworking, and kind" kind of talk that sounds like it comes from a wholesaler.
Instead, they genuinely praised Yao Shuli, saying things like she had made significant progress, had a better attitude towards learning, listened attentively and participated actively in class, and didn't just think about playing after class, and would ask the teacher questions when she encountered problems she didn't understand.
Teacher Wang not only affirmed Yao Shuli's excellent achievements, but also put forward further requirements for Yao Shuli in the next semester, and said that she would always urge Yao Shuli to study hard.
Yao Shula was very pleased after seeing Yao Shuli's report card.
"Does your teacher, Ms. Wang, always give such many comments?" Yao Shula asked with a smile.
Yao Shuli nodded immediately.
"Yes, Teacher Wang writes comments for each person carefully, and each one is different."
Teacher Wang writes all the comments based on the individual; he remembers who is weak in a particular subject and what their weaknesses are.
"Teacher Wang is so kind to everyone!" Yao Shuli said.
Yao Shula knew that Yao Shuli was very lucky to have met a good teacher.
"Great! Shuli's grades have improved significantly. You've finally kept the promise you made on your sister's birthday. Your sister is very happy!" Yao Shula happily patted Yao Shuli's head.
Yao Shuli grinned and started to smile, looking quite happy.
While Xiaotian was happy for Yao Shuli, she also handed her report card to Yao Shuli.
"Big sister, look at me! Look at me! I got perfect scores on both tests!"
Yao Shula quickly praised Xiao Tiantian again.
“We are doing very well every day. The first time we got our report card, we got a perfect score. We must keep it up and strive to be like your Sister Shuxin, who always gets first place.”
Xiao Tiantian immediately nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Absolutely. In terms of studies, my second sister is our role model, and we will definitely learn from her."
Sister, do you want to frame this report card? I also have award certificates. Sister, please put my report card and award certificates on the wall.
That way, no matter who comes to our house, they can see us as soon as they enter the main room.
When everyone saw so many certificates of merit, they praised the older sister for being good at taking care of children. "Big sister, haven't we made you proud?" Xiao Tiantian said happily.
Yao Shula nodded, then pinched Xiao Tiantian's nose.
"Yes, Tian Tian is right!"
But didn't you say Grandpa also hopes you can get good grades? Here's what we'll do: since you're going back to Shanghai for the New Year, take your report card and certificates back to show Grandpa and Grandpa on your mother's side. They'll be happy to see them!
Yao Shula's words made Xiao Tiantian realize what was going on immediately.
Yes, I got such good grades and even received an award. Whose credit is this?
It definitely wasn't thanks to my own father!
This must be thanks to my eldest sister!
Grandpa and Grandpa on the maternal side were so happy that they didn't even need to say anything; they just waved their hands.
"Your success is all thanks to your eldest sister. She works so hard, taking care of the family and you at the same time!"
Okay, from now on, the monthly fee will increase by another fifty yuan...
The more Xiaotian thought about it, the more she felt it made sense.
With more money, the older sister can relax a bit more, right? She won't have to worry about running out of money in the future. That's the most practical thing.
"Yes, we need to take the report card back to Grandpa and Grandpa on the other side. They'll definitely be happy to see it."
"After they've looked at them, I'll bring them back, and then my older sister will put my report card and certificates on the wall."
As Xiaotian spoke, she carefully put away her report card and award certificate.
...
Yao Shula was in a good mood today and prepared a sumptuous dinner.
I made braised pork, a mixed stew, pan-fried rolls, and scrambled eggs.
Everyone was quite happy.
“Starting tomorrow, you will be on holiday. You can decide how to spend your holiday!” Yao Shula stated her position.
Yao Shuxin immediately offered to help Yao Shula tidy up her house and help her older sister with the New Year preparations, and then continue to use the remaining time to prepare for the next semester's lessons.
Yao Shuli said he would take care of things at home, and he would also look out for other things to do. Although the winter vacation was a bit short and not as long as the summer vacation, it was still almost a month long.
If you use the time you would normally spend playing to do some small business, you can still earn a little money.
"Big sister, I don't ask for much, I just want to earn some money to buy gifts for everyone!" Yao Shuli said with a smile.
"Brother Shuli, count me in!" Xiao Tiantian immediately chimed in.
“Weren’t you going back to Shanghai for the Chinese New Year? Where did you find the time?” Yao Shuli replied.
Xiao Tiantian immediately raised her head.
"It's just going back home for the New Year, that's only a few days. I still have time to be at home, okay?"
"At worst... when it comes time to split the money, you can just give me a smaller share." Xiao Tiantian argued for her own interests.
Yao Shuli thought about it and agreed. Although Tiantian was young, he was quick-witted and would definitely be of help.
"Okay, I'll take you with me. I'll definitely share the money with you, just like before, half and half!"
Yao Shula also agreed with their decision.
Make good plans for your winter break, don't just think about having fun, that way you'll save yourself trouble.
...
In Shanghai, Lei Jingwu was checking some items in his warehouse.
"Take all of these with you, and the rest of them over there too. Be careful when you put them away, don't break them."
We'll load it all together when I leave the day after tomorrow.
Have you ordered from Kaisiling yet? I'll go pick it up that morning. I'll buy more of the pastries that keep well, and yes, more butter.
"It's getting cold now, so if you can store things, don't buy big ones, try to buy smaller ones..." Lei Jingwu instructed the people around him while looking at the items in the warehouse.
Gu Changqin, who was standing to the side, looked at the things laid out on the ground, and then at Lei Jingwu, who had a serious expression on his face.
"You've been running around Yun County really diligently this year! Anyone who didn't know better would think you had a second home there!" Gu Changqin said with a smile.
Lei Jingwu rolled his eyes at him.
“You’re there every day, don’t you want to be there every day?” Lei Jingwu asked.
Gu Changqin thought for a moment and nodded.
"Lei Jingwu, I miss Tiantian too. Actually... I also miss Yao Shula a little."
It feels like the New Year wouldn't be comfortable unless I got a few sarcastic remarks from her!
Lei Jingwu paused in his tidying.
"Do you miss Yao Shula?"
"Yeah, I want her to yell at me! Don't you think I'm being a bit cheeky?!"
"You're not just a little bit annoying, you're a little bit shameless!" Lei Jingwu snorted.
Gu Changqin...
That's going too far! He might want to be scolded, but not by Lei Jingwu!
