Chapter 422 Lu Jingyuan Starts School
When they arrived at the store, the waiter recognized Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen, greeted the boss, and then went to report to the store manager.
Soon the store manager came out. He used to be from Lingyuan City, so he was familiar with Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen. Seeing that they brought their relatives, he directly arranged a private room for them.
But Lin Xiaoxia said that they could just eat in the lobby because it was lively and there was no need to go to the private room.
The store manager arranged a better booth for them by the window.
After sitting down, Lin Xiaoxia asked the manager to arrange the dishes.
The store manager should go down and prepare.
Wen Jizu whispered to Lin Xiaoxia, "This is so high-end, it must be very expensive, there are so many rich people here."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Uncle, this isn't expensive. It's not much different from a normal restaurant. Because we don't need to hire so many chefs, the ingredients are fixed, so the cost is actually not that high."
After hearing this, Wen Jizu thought for a moment and said, "That's right. A cutter and a waiter will do." He then looked at Lin Xiaoxia with admiration and said, "You're really smart."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled: "I also improved it by referring to the characteristics of some stores."
Zheng Qing studied the equipment. "This is great! Look, the fumes go straight out of this pipe. There's no choking at all."
At this time, the waiter came with the dishes, put down the dishes, and turned on the oven for them.
Lu Jingshen took the tongs and started grilling the meat, while explaining to Wen Jizu and Zheng Qing how to use them.
Lin Xiaoxia explained to them what flavors of meat there are and how to eat them deliciously.
After Wen Jizu and Zheng Qing tasted the meat for the first time, their eyes lit up and they kept saying it was delicious.
Lin Xiaoxia said that when Wen Guowang, Wen Bin and Wen Na come, she will bring them here to eat. Isn’t it her own restaurant and anyone can come and eat there casually?
Wen Jizu and Zheng Qing were both very excited about the meal, which gave them a new understanding of the restaurant.
After dinner, they sent Wen Jizu and Zheng Qing back, and Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen also returned to the city.
Soon Lu Jingyuan and his classmates will arrive at the school for military training. The training will last for one week, and they can arrive at the school three days in advance to arrange accommodation and other things.
Because it was not the weekend, Lin Xiaoxia went back to pick up Lu Jingyuan herself.
Lu Jingyuan said that he wanted to take his classmate Dai Wang with him. Dai Wang's mother had a disabled leg and his father was mute. They were both disabled and had difficulty finding a partner, so they got together. It was not convenient for them to send Dai Wang to school, and both of them were admitted to high school, so Lu Jingyuan wanted to take him along.
Lin Xiaoxia was a kind person, so she naturally agreed and went with Lu Jingyuan to pick up Dai Wang.
Dai Wang's home is in Xiasanjiazi, a 20-minute drive away.
After entering the village, Lin Xiaoxia asked where the Dai family lived and followed the route they pointed.
Arriving at the Dai family's door, Lin Xiaoxia could only say that this was a very poor family. They had a small mud house of one and a half rooms, a small yard, and several panes of glass on the windows were broken and covered with paper.
Hearing the car stop at their door, Dai Wang came out and was a little surprised to see Lu Jingyuan: "Lu Jingyuan, why are you here?"
Lu Jingyuan said, "My sister-in-law came to pick me up to report. I thought it would be just the two of us going to No. 1 High School, so I asked my sister-in-law to come and see if you had left. If not, it would be a good opportunity for us to go together."
Dai Wang looked at Lu Jingyuan: "Thank you, Lu Jingyuan." He wanted to say something else, but didn't say it.
At this time, Dai Wang's father also came out. He gestured and invited Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingyuan into the house.
Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingyuan called Dai Wang's father "Uncle" and then followed him into the house. Because they had to wait for Dai Wang to pack his luggage, it was impossible for them not to go into the house.
When I entered the house, I saw Dai Wang's mother, leaning on the crutches she made herself, struggling to get off the kang. "Come in and sit down. I'll pour you some water."
Lin Xiaoxia quickly stopped Dai Wang's mother and said, "Auntie, you're welcome. I'm not thirsty. Don't worry. I'm taking Dai Wang to school with me. Please help him pack."
Dai Wang's mother said gratefully, "I really don't know how to thank you. His father and I really can't send him off. You've really helped our family a lot."
Lin Xiaoxia said: "Aunt, it's too serious. It's just a matter of passing by. It's the same whether I send one or two." Saying this will not put pressure on the other party.
Dai Wang's father gestured with his hands to thank them.
At this time, Dai Wang poured boiled water into porcelain bowls for Lin Xiaoxia and Lu Jingyuan and placed them next to them.
Lin Xiaoxia took a sip of water and said, "Dai Wang, take whatever you want. There's plenty of room in the car anyway, so you don't have to spend money to buy things in the city."
Dai Wang nodded: "Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll bring more."
Dai Wang's mother looked at Lin Xiaoxia and said, "I don't know how to express my gratitude."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "You're welcome, Auntie. Jingyuan and Dai Wang are the only two people from our village who have been admitted to the No. 1 High School this year. They'll have a companion at school and can take care of each other."
Dai Wang's mother sighed: "Dai Wang is not like Jing Yuan, who has a good personality. Dai Wang's temper... Well, it's also because we parents are too poor. Speaking of which, we really don't deserve to be his parents. The child has parents like us, and he has really suffered. It was with the help of his teachers and classmates over the years that he was admitted to high school. Now you have to worry about him again. What can I say..."
Lin Xiaoxia also understood Dai Wang's mother's feelings. To be honest, it was not easy for this family to support Dai Wang's schooling.
She said, "Aunt, if you can train Dai Wang to be a high school student, and then he gets admitted to university, you will enjoy the happiness as well."
Dai Wang's mother said, "I don't even have the face to think about enjoying myself. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but sometimes I regret that we are not suitable for having children. It would be great if the child could be born into a good family. Dai Wang has been bullied since he was a child. He has a dull personality and dares not speak out when something happens. It's all because of us." Dai Wang's mother burst into tears as she spoke. She felt so sad that she couldn't help crying when she thought about her child going to the city and being bullied and having nowhere to complain.
Dai Wang said to his mother, "Mom, I've already told you, don't keep saying that. I don't feel wronged. You've been supporting my schooling, and I'm already very satisfied."
Dai Wang's mother sighed: "But I feel guilty."
Dai Wang said, "Mom, although our family is poor, you have always given me the best. You and Dad have worked very hard over the years. I really don't blame you."
"But your introverted personality will put you at a disadvantage wherever you go." Dai Wang's mother said worriedly.
Dai Wang didn't know how to answer because he was indeed introverted and easily bullied.
Lin Xiaoxia said to Dai Wang's mother, "Aunt, I'm in the city. When I have time, I'll go see Jing Yuan and visit Dai Wang as well. I won't let him get bullied."
Dai Wang's mother held Lin Xiaoxia's hand, tears streaming down her face again: "Thank you, my dear child, thank you."
This made Lin Xiaoxia's eyes red: "You're welcome, it's just a small favor."
Dai Wang's father also bowed to Lin Xiaoxia to express his gratitude.
Lin Xiaoxia quickly waved her hand to indicate that you’re welcome.
After talking to each other for a few more words, they started packing up and prepared to go to the city.
