Chapter 148 Naming
She only has a high school education and her Chinese was not very good when she was in school.
"What do you think? What should we call it?" Li Xu asked Ji Yuanyuan subconsciously.
As soon as I asked the question, I felt a little stupid.
I can’t even take it out myself. Yuanyuan is just a seven-year-old child. How can she take it out?
Just as she was about to speak, she heard Ji Yuanyuan say, "Why not call us Caiyuanzi? What's wrong with that? As soon as people hear us, they'll know we're selling vegetables, and there's a "Yuan" in my name!"
Li Xu looked at Ji Yuanyuan and was a little surprised for a moment.
Ji Yuanyuan blinked her eyes pretending to be a little embarrassed and asked, "What's wrong, Mom? Is the name I gave you not nice?"
"How could it be?" Li Xu excitedly picked up Ji Yuanyuan from the ground: "Mom is a little surprised, is my daughter a genius? How can she be so good at naming?"
Listening to Li Xu's deliberately exaggerated words, Ji Yuanyuan reached out and covered her mouth, laughing secretly.
"Well, my daughter must be a genius!"
Ji Yuanyuan leaned over and kissed Li Xu on the face, imitating Li Xu's exaggerated tone: "Then you must be the mother of a genius!"
The mother and daughter quarreled for a while before locking the door and going home.
"Mom will go find someone to put up the sign tomorrow! I'll call grandpa someday and tell him that a friend of mom's needs vegetables and wants all of them."
Li Xu didn't know what was going on. Although her daughter was just a child, she would habitually tell her daughter if there was anything.
When the two returned home, Li Xu patted Ji Yuanyuan's butt and put her down: "Go do your homework!"
She basically doesn't worry about Yuanyuan's studies now.
Anyway, there is space and she can always finish her homework.
Moreover, my daughter is very well behaved. She basically does her homework on her own without anyone reminding her.
She went to Ji Zixuan and Ji Ziang's room and took another look.
A lot of things happened during the past two days when the family was in the countryside. In addition, Ziang was not feeling well, so the two brothers basically did not do much homework.
Li Xu reached out and touched Ji Ziang's head, and asked in a low voice: "Have you taken the medicine? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Ji Ziang buried his head in his homework and replied hastily and perfunctorily: "I have eaten, and I am fine!"
Li Xu ignored him and packed up the children's clothes and put them into the washing machine.
After hanging the clothes, the two brothers were still busy with their homework. Ji Yuanyuan had already finished and was lying on the bed reading a comic book.
Maybe she was a little bored. As she watched, she turned over and lay on the bed in a daze. I don’t know what she was thinking about!
Li Xu took the wool next to her and sat on the sofa.
The weather is getting colder and colder. Ji Ziang has grown a lot taller this year, and he probably can’t wear last year’s sweater and trousers anymore.
She thought about adding a piece to the sleeves and trouser legs. This was still the same wool as before, and she estimated that it wouldn't look any different after adding it.
While knitting, I was thinking: I have to go and buy a TV for the children someday.
Children are so competitive nowadays. If they buy a TV, they will feel proud when talking about it among their classmates.
She has grown up in poverty, and she knows what it feels like to be poor in front of her friends.
So she doesn't want her child to be different from other classmates.
Whatever other classmates have at home, you should also have at home.
Just as I was thinking about it, someone knocked on the door: "Sister, it's me, open the door and help me!"
It was Li Yong's voice. Li Xu quickly put down what he was holding and went to open the door.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Li Yong coming in with a large sack on his back and many bags in his hands.
"Oh, I'm so tired!"
He drank a jar of water as soon as he entered the room, and then collapsed on the sofa.
Hearing Li Yong's voice, Ji Yuanyuan came out of the bedroom with her short legs.
"Uncle, why do you carry so many things? Have you resigned?" Ji Yuanyuan asked curiously.
Li Yongxi nodded with a smile, then looked at Li Xu: "Sister, I ran into a good thing, my luck is so good!"
"What's wrong? What good thing happened after resigning?" Li Xu looked at him strangely, "Did you find some money?"
Li Yong said happily, "That's about right!"
Hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan also became happy. She ran to sit next to Li Yong and asked, "How much money did you find? A lot of money?"
Li Yong stretched out a hand and waved it towards Ji Yuanyuan.
"Five...ten?" Ji Yuanyuan didn't dare to guess more.
Li Yong shook his head, "It's five hundred!"
This time, even Li Xu was a little surprised: "So many? Where did you pick them up? You have to return them!"
Li Yong smiled and said, "It's not something I found, but it's almost like I found it for free. I was planning to resign, but when I went to the restaurant today, before I even opened my mouth, the boss told me that the restaurant was going to close down. He felt sorry for us, so he gave each of us 500 yuan in compensation and asked us to find another job!"
Thinking of the situation at that time, Li Yong was still feeling fortunate: Fortunately, I didn’t speak first, otherwise, wouldn’t the five hundred yuan have been wasted?
"Besides, the boss paid us all the money right away and told us to pack up and leave!" Li Yong held the five hundred yuan in his pocket and looked at Ji Yuanyuan happily, "Second uncle is rich now. Let's go buy whatever you want to eat tomorrow!"
Poor second uncle, he was so happy because of 500 yuan.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Yong and patted his shoulder with some sympathy: "No need, second uncle, save it for marrying a wife."
Li Yong didn't hear the sympathy in Ji Yuanyuan's words at all. Instead, he was very pleased with what she said: "Yuanyuan, you are sensible!"
After that, he looked at Li Xu again, "Sister, I will stay at your place for the next few days. I will take a day off tomorrow, and I will go out to do business the day after tomorrow."
"No need. I have a friend who is a vegetable vendor. He told me that he wants all our vegetables and they will cost 40 cents each!" Li Xu was very skilled at telling lies without blushing or getting nervous.
"Simao?" Li Yong was a little surprised and said casually, "Your friend is quite loyal. Invite him to your home someday and have a meal together."
Li Xu said calmly, "He can make some money from the 40 cents. Our products are of good quality. Although I know him, how can he do business that will put him at a disadvantage?"
Li Yong thought about it and felt that it made sense.
He nodded: "Since there is a market for it, I will go home tomorrow."
Seeing that Li Yong was so diligent now, Li Xu was quite satisfied and said immediately: "Okay, leave the things that can't be taken here. After returning, have a good talk with Xiao Lei and enlighten him."
After what happened today, even though he didn't say it, he must be feeling upset!
Speaking of Li Lei, the smile on Li Yong's face gradually disappeared, "I know, sister, don't worry!"
