Chapter 501 The Abandoned Celebrity Assistant (Passerby A) 4
I made braised pork for dinner, which was made by Jiang Yue herself. The high school girl next door came running over as soon as she smelled it. The way the two of them met was quite interesting.
While Jiang Yue was drinking tea in the courtyard, she heard her mother scolding her. The two were bickering, and Jiang Yue couldn't help but laugh. The two houses were close together and there was no soundproofing in the courtyard, so the little girl heard it too. She climbed over the wall and looked over, asking Jiang Yue if she was laughing at her. Jiang Yue nodded to indicate that she was. The little girl rolled her eyes at Jiang Yue, but before she could say anything, her mother pulled her down from the wall.
Perhaps because her mother felt embarrassed, she bought some fruit the next day and had her bring it over. When it arrived, Jiang Yue was cooking, and the aroma made her dizzy. Jiang Yue asked if she had eaten and if she wanted to eat with her. The child nodded honestly and plopped down in the chair. Her slightly dazed look made Jiang Yue laugh again.
Jiang Yue gave her a bowl and chopsticks and the two of them started eating. Jiang Yue already cooked little because she was eating alone, but with another person, she barely ate any.
After that, the two became familiar with each other. Later, he would often come to visit her on weekends. He could get free meals and ask her for help with any questions he didn't understand. Thanks to Jiang Yue's tutoring, his score on the last monthly exam improved by a full thirty points.
When her mother found out, she sent Jiang Yue a red envelope, asking her to tutor the child. She had attended many tutoring classes, but none could compare to Jiang Yue's. The child's personality was quite likable and suited Jiang Yue's taste, so she readily agreed.
Since it was the weekend, Jiang Yue knew someone was coming over for a free meal, so she cooked a little extra. The two of them weren't worried about not having enough to eat. While they were eating, the puppet watching TV leaned close to Jiang Yue's ear mysteriously and said, "Sis, are you a rich girl from a wealthy family, or something?"
"Why would you think that? What kind of young lady would live here?"
"Why does Aunt Sun never eat with us?"
"Because she is a member of an ethnic minority and does not eat pork."
This wasn't just something Jiang Yue made up. When they were processing their identities, this was the only one that was suitable. Their original ID cards were for Hui people, so some of the customs of ethnic minorities still had to be respected.
Zeng Li suddenly realized: "That explains it! Sometimes I eat it, sometimes I don't."
"So don't have such wild imaginations, especially bringing up wealthy families. Where have you ever seen such a poor wealthy family?"
"hey-hey."
"By the way, sister, a classmate of mine is coming to ask me to do her homework later. Can I bring her over here?"
"Male or female?"
"It's definitely a woman!"
"That's fine."
"Can't it be a man?"
“If it’s a man, I’ll call your mom over.”
"Sis, how old are you? Are you already so old-fashioned?"
"I'm not feudalistic. I just think people should do what they're supposed to do at each stage of life. If someone can balance love and studies, and still get the top score in the whole school while dating, then they can do whatever they want. But most people can't balance it. If they put energy into their relationship, they'll lose energy for their studies, and then their grades will drop. That's what parents and teachers can't accept."
"The average life expectancy in our country is 78.6 years. High school only lasts for 3 years. These 3 years are too short a percentage of life. You can date anytime after you turn 18, or even when you're 50, it's not too late. Why do you have to date in these 3 years? Especially since you're already in the second semester of your senior year. Can't you even stick to it in the last semester?"
Jiang Yue told her all this because she had some initial interest, but it was still just a little ambiguous. She hoped that Jiang Yue would take her words to heart. Jiang Yue wouldn't say anything more, after all, she wasn't her mother, and it was already quite good that she could give her some advice.
"Sister, how did you know?"
"I could tell."
Is it obvious?
"A little."
"Oh dear, what am I going to do? He's my crush."
"It's up to you. I'm afraid if I say too much, you two might end up not being together and you'll blame me. Then, after he gets married, you might be driven crazy by the shock and suddenly stab me a few times. Then, after I'm reborn, I'll coldly watch you court death. Isn't that troublesome enough?"
"Pfft, sis, you should spend less time on TikTok."
After finishing her meal, Zeng Li went to wash the dishes on her own initiative. After she finished washing the dishes, she went out to pick up her best friend. This girl was quite shy and cute. The two of them had very different personalities, and I don't know how they became good friends. She even brought milk tea for Jiang Yue when she came. Hmm, the milk tea was quite delicious.
After finishing her milk tea, Jiang Yue cut a fruit platter and then brewed a pot of low-grade spiritual fruit tea, which she then brought over to them. Zeng Li's voice was soft and sweet, and Jiang Yue wanted to pat her head after she called her "sister" several times. If Zeng Li hadn't been looking at her warily, she would have already reached out and touched her.
She was still cricketing about Jiang Yue after Jiang Yue left. If Jiang Yue hadn't had better hearing, she wouldn't have known. Goodness, next time I come over, I'll make you some braised pig's trotters in Shaoxing wine.
After studying for an afternoon, the two left. During the afternoon, Jiang Yue answered a few questions for them. Zeng Li and her sister were smarter than her and were good candidates for scientific research. Speaking of which, the big gift package hadn't been delivered yet. There was no time like the present, so let Bai Ze deliver it.
She went out for a walk with the dog in the evening and bought some starch sausages to eat. She took one for the dog and one for herself, and the dog didn't add any seasoning. After walking around for a while, she went home and went back to her old job of answering questions for payment. She now has some repeat customers. At the same time, she is teaching herself game development online, because she can't rely on this to make money forever.
After the New Year, we can make a game. It takes three to five months of learning to make a small game, which is at least acceptable on the surface.
Jiang Yue originally thought she would live a peaceful and uneventful life, studying and earning money every day without getting bored. However, when the pandemic hit at the end of December, Jiang Yue was speechless. This kind of thing had never happened in the previous few worlds, and she had almost forgotten about it. She didn't expect it to happen in this world.
Jiang Yue had already sent a large gift package, which included methods for preventing and controlling the epidemic. She just didn't know what the government was thinking, whether they wanted to take advantage of the epidemic to make some money and quietly develop the economy for a few years.
In the second month after the outbreak, the number of deaths in China was brought under control. Apart from some deaths at the beginning when no effective treatment was developed, there were no more deaths afterward. However, the epidemic still existed, and Jiang Yue still had to do nucleic acid tests every day. If it weren't for the Wizard Tower where she could grow vegetables, Jiang Yue would have been unable to keep going. Staying at home was too boring.
However, Jiang Yue took the opportunity to create a few free mini-games to pass the time. Although they were free, she achieved financial freedom through the ads in them. It was great that she didn't have to think about making money anymore, since the money was legitimate.
