Just moments ago, Xiao Muyu was full of confidence, but now she panicked and looked at Jiang Xiaoli with pleading eyes, "Xiaoli, please help me!"
Jiang Xiaoli ended the chat with a grin, then turned and called out, "Everyone, please don't crowd! There's plenty of spicy strips today, enough for everyone to buy. Here are two bags for you!"
With Jiang Xiaoli maintaining order and calling out "several bags!", Xiao Muyu became more skilled at collecting money, and there were no problems even when the children's palace was busiest after school.
However, the spicy strips still didn't sell out. After coaxing the customers who didn't get any to leave, Jiang Xiaoli raised her eyebrows at Xiao Muyu smugly, "How about that? Aren't I amazing?"
Xiao Muyu is a good kid who speaks the truth. "Indeed, I was stunned when people suddenly squeezed in. Xiaoli, you looked just like when you were talking business with my dad."
"Haha, I can even compare to Uncle Xiao now! Looks like I'm destined to be a tycoon!"
Jiang Xiaoli was just joking around when Li Guizhi tapped her on the head. "Xiaoyu was just being polite, and you took it seriously. You're not humble at all!"
Xiao Muyu was regretting praising Jiang Xiaoli, but when she saw Li Guizhi hit her, she quickly said, "Auntie, I meant it. Xiaoli was really amazing just now."
Li Guizhi had seen what had just happened, and she was proud of her daughter.
The three chatted as they returned home. Jiang Xiaoli took a sip of water and then busied herself counting the money.
Today we sold a total of 45.8 yuan worth of goods. After deducting the cost of 15 yuan, we made a profit of 30.8 yuan.
Because many people are now buying in two bags at a time, the profit is less than the initial estimate of 35 yuan, but it still makes Li Guizhi very happy, as this is three days' wages for her!
Li Guizhi rested for a while before going to work, while Jiang Xiaoli planned to continue studying. Seeing this, Xiao Muyu asked her, "Are you preparing for the placement test at the beginning of the semester?"
"Yeah, are you ready?" Jiang Xiaoli asked casually.
Xiao Muyu, like her, also got into No. 20 Middle School.
However, the difference is that in her previous life she was in an ordinary class, while Xiao Muyu was in an elite class.
"No need for much preparation, right? Isn't it all content that we learned in junior high school?"
Jiang Xiaoli was impressed by her display of skill. Well, what can you do when this little princess is such a diligent and studious student?
After staying at Jiang Xiaoli's house for a while, Xiao Muyu felt unbearably hot. "Xiaoli, the fan in your house is blowing hot air. Come home with me. It'll be cooler with the air conditioning on, and you'll be able to concentrate better on your studies."
Jiang Xiaoli agreed immediately. It wasn't that she didn't want to use the air conditioner; she had simply refused Tian Xiaomeng that day because she didn't want to talk to her.
She only brought the key, because Xiao Muyu said she had everything there, including many practice papers that Jiang Xiaoli hadn't done yet!
Jiang Xiaoli expressed great satisfaction with this all-inclusive study room service.
Upon arriving at the Xiao family home, Xiao Muyu's mother, Xu Feng, warmly greeted Jiang Xiaoli, "Little Pear, how long has it been since you last visited Auntie's? Come and have some watermelon, it's freshly chilled, so refreshing."
What could be more refreshing than enjoying air conditioning and ice-cold watermelon on a hot summer day?
After chatting with Xu Feng for a while, Jiang Xiaoli used the Xiao family's phone to call Li Guizhi's factory and tell her that she was studying with Xiao Muyu at the Xiao family's house.
Li Guizhi was naturally relieved to see her daughter with Xiaoyu, and immediately said that she would pick her up from the Xiao family after get off work.
After informing her mother, Jiang Xiaoli followed Xiao Muyu into her room, a princess room decorated in familiar pink and white, with lace embellishments everywhere, exuding girlish charm.
Xiao Muyu brought her a physics book, which Jiang Xiaoli used to read at home. "Do you want to do some practice problems? I have some practice papers here that you haven't done before."
"Two portions, please," Jiang Xiaoli said, sounding like a VIP waiting for her food to be served.
Xiao Muyu's desk was spacious, and the two of them sat facing each other studying, creating a harmonious scene.
About half an hour later, Xiao Muyu saw Jiang Xiaoli frowning as she looked at the physics test paper and checked the answers. "Is there anything you don't understand? I can explain it to you."
Jiang Xiaoli shook her head and handed the test paper and answer key to Xiao Muyu. "No, I think the answer key for this question is wrong."
"Is the reference answer wrong?"
Xiao Muyu took the test paper. Instead of looking at the answer key, she took a piece of scratch paper and started working on the calculations.
Soon, Xiao Muyu received the exact same answer as Jiang Xiaoli. "Xiaoli, this answer key is really wrong! What is this! I'm never buying this test paper again!"
When Xiao Jincheng returned home in the afternoon, he was overjoyed to see the two little girls studying together. He told his wife that the children were working hard and asked her to make them something nice to eat.
After dinner, the two continued to study diligently. Jiang Xiaoli studied junior high school material, while Xiao Muyu previewed high school textbooks.
Today's learning results were remarkable. Jiang Xiaoli had already mastered junior high school physics, scoring full marks on both of her practice tests, which shocked Xiao Muyu.
"Little Pear, you're so smart, you can learn things so easily. Why didn't you study harder before?"
Jiang Xiaoli snapped her fingers at her, "There's a saying, 'The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind.' As for me, I'm just hiding my talents, that's all~"
Hearing her start spouting nonsense again, Xiao Muyu couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Just then, Jiang Xiaoli saw it and exclaimed in surprise, covering her mouth, "How could a fairy roll her eyes like that!"
Xiao Muyu threw an eraser at her, "Jiang Xiaoli, why are you being so sarcastic now!"
When Xiao Jincheng and his wife heard the two girls playing around, they looked at each other and smiled. They hadn't seen this scene in several years.
Around 11 o'clock, Li Guizhi came to pick up Jiang Xiaoli to go home. Xiao Jincheng escorted them to the entrance of the community. "Sister-in-law, let Xiaoli come to my house to study. I'll take her home tonight, so you won't have to go out of your way to do that."
Li Guizhi smiled and said, "It's alright, no need. It's not far. Xiaoli has already troubled you and Xiaofeng enough by staying at your house."
Jiang Xiaoli sat on the back of the bicycle, enjoying the summer evening breeze, and sang happily.
Let us row our oars
The little boat pushes through the waves
The beautiful white pagoda is reflected in the sea.
Surrounded by green trees and red walls
The little boat floated gently on the water
A cool breeze blew in my face.
Hehehe! A cool breeze!
She sang with great enthusiasm, and then she even improvised a few lines of rap.
As Li Guizhi rode her bicycle ahead, listening to her daughter sing, the fatigue from working in the factory instantly vanished.
Back home, the mother and daughter took turns showering with the water that had been left to dry in the yard during the day. Li Guizhi told her daughter some gossip about the factory.
Jiang Xiaoli is an excellent straight man, especially skilled at using interjections, such as "Huh? How could this be?", "Really!", "And then? And then?", "Sigh, I knew it!"
Li Guizhi was coaxed into opening up, and the two chatted until very late, eventually ending up sleeping together...
