Chapter 207 Explain the Question to Her
"Sister, my mother is in Qingyuan now, not in Jiao County. Besides, she can't persuade my uncle." Su Jiaojiao understood Chen Juan's concerns. "Don't worry, there's still a month. Maybe things will turn around."
After talking to Chen Juan, Su Jiaojiao called Chen Xiaohong again and briefly explained the situation to her: "I do have an idea, but I'm not at home right now. If you're free, please help me get it done."
Chen Guichang asked a Taoist priest to look after the cemetery, and she also did the same.
She didn't believe it, as the two immortals said the same thing.
"You've found the right person for this. Don't worry about the date. I'll help you." Chen Xiaohong patted her chest and promised, "I guarantee that it will be flawless and he will be convinced."
"Just don't overdo it." Su Jiaojiao was a little worried when she saw how confident she was. "If it can be done, then do it. If it can't be done, I'll think of another way."
"Don't worry." Chen Xiaohong hung up the phone directly.
The morning in Jinxi City was cool, the compound was quiet, and not many people were walking around. It was quiet next door, and Lu Jingyou and the others were probably still asleep.
Su Jiaojiao took out the set of exercises from her bag and lay on the bed to look at them. There were many types of questions, with answers and explanations. She tried to do a few of them, looked up the answers, and got two of them wrong out of six.
At eight o'clock, Lu Jingyou came to knock on her door. He had just returned from outside, still holding breakfast in his hands. Seeing her doing her homework, he joked, "So diligent?"
"You're already in your third year of high school, so you need to be diligent." Su Jiaojiao took the breakfast from him: six steamed dumplings, two tea eggs, and a cup of millet porridge. "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for breakfast. You've worked hard. Have you eaten yet?"
"I've eaten. There's no need to be so polite between you and me." Lu Jingyou sat on the bed and picked up the homework she had done. "Since you came out with me, I'll naturally take care of your food and accommodation. Just think of it as..."
Su Jiaojiao opened the box and paused for a moment after hearing what he said. Lu Jingyou continued to look at the questions she was doing. "Just think of it as compensation for the trouble I caused you in my previous life."
"I don't deserve that." Su Jiaojiao took a bite of the bun. The filling was large and juicy, and the flavor was refreshing. "The past was the past, and the present is the present."
"That being said, your impression of me still remains stuck in my past life." Lu Jingyou looked at her seriously, "You've never considered that perhaps the me you saw in your past life wasn't the real me."
"……"What's the meaning?
Seeing that she was confused, Lu Jingyou stopped talking: "Eat first, and then I'll explain the two wrong questions to you."
It was almost ten o'clock when we finished explaining the wrong questions.
One was teaching seriously, the other was listening intently, and both of them were sweating. Finally, Teacher Lu concluded, "Your foundation is not bad. Do more exercises of different types, and your grades will definitely improve. From now on, do ten math problems every day, and I will be responsible for correcting the wrong ones."
"Okay, thank you Teacher Lu." Su Jiaojiao felt that he explained in great detail and with great patience. At least, she could understand and truly comprehend what he said. She was not a stupid student to begin with.
The way she bit the tip of the pen and thought seriously made him laugh.
High school mathematics is difficult to begin with, but fortunately she has a good comprehension ability, so it doesn't cause him too much trouble.
Wang Hua was pacing anxiously outside the door.
It's been more than two hours and we're still discussing the topic. Should we go to the project department? Didn't we say last night that there would be a meeting today?
Qi Heng happened to call Wang Hua and asked, "What's wrong with your boss? He won't answer the phone. What is he doing?"
"Oh, he's..." Wang Hua didn't know what to say, and Qi Heng understood instantly, "Is he with that little girl?"
"Yes, he was explaining math problems to Su Jiaojiao." Wang Hua nodded vigorously while holding his phone. "Mr. Lu's phone might have been muted, so he didn't hear it."
"Math problems?" Qi Heng chuckled. "Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll call you back later. Please do as you please!"
When Lu Jingyou heard Wang Hua's voice, he picked up his phone and looked at it. He stood up and said to Su Jiaojiao, "I'll go to the project department and take you to the wholesale market this afternoon."
"Okay, go ahead and do your thing." Su Jiaojiao frowned, "I'm going to take a walk in the yard."
"Don't go too far." Lu Jingyou warned, then pushed the door open and walked out. Wang Hua hurriedly said, "Mr. Lu, it's time for the meeting."
On the way, Lu Jingyou called Qi Heng back: "What's the matter?"
"Can't I call you if I'm fine?" Qi Heng sneered, "Teacher Lu really has good intentions. Not only did he lure me to the northwest, but he even pretended to be my teacher. Is the next step going to be to lure me to bed..."
"I'm on my way and don't have time to listen to your nonsense." Lu Jingyou hung up the phone directly.
Qi Heng: “…”
After Lu Jingyou and Wang Hua left, Su Jiaojiao walked out of the compound with her bag on her back. There were many stalls at the entrance of the compound, selling all kinds of things, similar to the snack street in Jiao County.
The sun was scorching and the stalls were all decorated with red parasols.
There is a mooncake making stall right next to the courtyard. It has a military green sunshade over it, and the large solid wood panel is piled high with dough for making mooncakes.
The boss seemed to be in his sixties or seventies, with a towel draped over his shoulders and sweating profusely. His old wife behind him was in charge of pressing the embryos and baking them. The baked mooncakes were placed on an iron rack to cool down, waiting to be sold.
The mooncakes were golden yellow and smelled fragrant, very different from the ones Su Jiaojiao had eaten.
Su Jiaojiao went over to ask the price. Four mooncakes per pound, one yuan a mooncake. The owner explained that they were made with sesame oil. "Little girl, our Lu'an mooncakes are very famous around here. You'll know once you try them. I guarantee you'll want more."
Sesame oil is a specialty of Northwest China. The mooncakes baked with it are soft and beautiful. There are red bean, five-nut, walnut and sesame fillings.
Su Jiaojiao bought two to try. They had a unique taste and were delicious. I will take some more back when I leave.
There are a lot of people walking on the street, just like a big market.
There are almost no cars to be seen. Adults and children are riding bicycles, shuttling back and forth on the bicycle lanes on both sides of the road.
She strolled slowly on the street for a while before she understood why the compound was the center of the county. It turned out that the entire county was located in a valley similar to a basin.
The street in front of the compound is uphill no matter which way you go.
Although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs.
The LA city government and relevant departments are all on this street. Lu Jingyou said that their project department is ten minutes away from the compound, so it should be outside the county town.
Obviously, the clothing wholesale market that Lu Jingyou mentioned is not here.
Passing by a Liangpi (cold noodle) shop, Su Jiaojiao went in and had a bowl of Liangpi. The shelf near the door of the shop was filled with a wide variety of fruit juices. She picked out a bottle of Shajing juice, which she had never tasted before, and put it in her bag. It was their local specialty juice.
After eating and drinking her fill, she came out of the Liangpi shop and strolled back. The more she walked, the stranger she felt because the road ahead was not the same as the one she came from.
