Chapter 99 Surprise
Zhang Kun didn't see Li Xu. He looked around and saw her busy in the kitchen. He opened the black plastic bag in his hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work today. Uncle Zhang bought some ice cream."
Seeing this, Ji Ziang's eyes lit up: "Uncle Zhang, you are so kind."
Eating cold food can easily cause diarrhea, so Li Xu rarely buys ice cream for them in the summer.
Zhang Kun reached out and took out a green one, then handed the rest to Ji Ziang: "Take it and share it with your brother, sister, and aunt."
"Thank you, Uncle Zhang."
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
Several children and Li Miao spoke almost at the same time.
Zhang Kun took the ice cream in the green bag and went into the kitchen.
"What are you doing in here? Go out and help them count the money." Li Xu chuckled.
Zhang Kun didn't say anything, he just tore open the ice cream bag and put it next to Li Xu's mouth: "Come on, take a bite!"
Li Xu looked down and shook his head: "I don't eat this. You can give it to Yuanyuan and the others."
In the hot summer, who doesn’t like to eat ice cream?
Zhang Kun knew that Li Xu was reluctant to eat it, so he immediately put the ice cream close to Li Xu's lips and said, "They all have it. This is specially reserved for you."
The ice cream got to her lips, so Li Xu had no choice but to take a bite.
The cold ice cream slid down my throat, and it seemed as if my whole body was refreshed.
Li Xu sighed with satisfaction, and then said, "You can eat the rest."
Zhang Kun handed the ice cream over again: "Take it and eat it yourself."
Li Xu hesitated for a moment, then wiped her right hand on her apron and took the ice cream.
Zhang Kun pushed Li Xu aside and took the bowl from the sink: "You go out, I'll wash it."
Li Xu quickly said, "Leave it there. I'll wash it after we finish eating."
Before Zhang Kun could say anything else, Ji Ziang rushed in excitedly: "Mom, we've calculated it. We made a total of 118 yuan today!"
Zhang Kun was surprised: "So many!"
Ji Ziang raised his head proudly: "Of course, we are selling it cheaply today. If we sell it at the original price, we can get even more!"
"My silly son, if we were selling it at the original price, how could so many people come to buy it? After the promotion is over, the sales will definitely not be that much."
However, Li Xu was already very satisfied.
I earned enough to pay one month’s rent!
Li Miao packed up all the money and put it in the drawer of Li Xu's bedroom. He then put the change back into a plastic bag and prepared to take it to the store tomorrow.
Zhang Kun stayed here for a while before leaving.
The event in Li Xu's store lasted for three days in total, and the sales during these three days were lower and lower.
On the fourth day, the event ended, and the entire day's sales were only over 50 yuan.
However, even so, Li Xu was very satisfied.
It's much better than being in the wet market. What's more, at least there are fans blowing in the store, which is always more comfortable than being in the wet market.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, Li Miao went back.
On the fifth day, Li Xu was the only one left in the store.
Seeing that school was about to start in less than a month and the store had settled down, Li Xu ordered her three children to do their homework at home.
The whole morning was relatively relaxing. I closed the door for a while at noon, hurriedly made a meal for the children, and was about to take the meal to the store when there was a knock on the door.
Li Xu was busy with his work, so he told Ji Ziang: "Ziang, open the door and see who it is."
Ji Ziang responded and ran barefoot to the door to open it.
Li Xu grumbled helplessly: "Put on slippers, the ground is cold..."
"Oh, I get it, Mom. Don't...Grandpa Qin?" Before Ji Ziang could finish his words, his eyes widened and his voice became higher.
Qin Junshan panted lightly and said with a smile: "How is it? Are you surprised to see Grandpa Qin?"
Ji Ziang poked his head out and looked behind him. "Grandpa Qin, aren't Uncle Qin and Aunt Cheng here? Why are there only you and Brother Mu Cheng?"
The only people standing at the door were Qin Junshan, Qin Mucheng and Qin Xiaomin.
Li Xu had come out from behind, and was a little surprised to see Qin Junshan: "Uncle, come in and sit down."
When Ji Yuanyuan saw Qin Junshan coming, she quickly ran to the kitchen to pour water.
Qin Xiaomin and Qin Mucheng supported Qin Junshan on the left and right and entered the house.
After Qin Junshan sat down, he answered Ji Ziang's words: "Your Uncle Qin and Aunt Cheng are busy, but Mu Cheng and I missed you, so we came here."
Ji Ziang suddenly chuckled twice and looked at Qin Mucheng: "Could it be that Brother Mucheng is missing Yuanyuan?"
Ji Yuanyuan, who was coming out of the kitchen with water in her hand, said: …
She looked at Ji Ziang with a forced smile. What was going on in this guy's mind?
You are not smart when you should be smart, and you are smart when you should not be smart.
She came forward with the water and placed the tea in front of Qin Junshan: "Grandpa Qin, you must be tired. Drink some water to moisten your throat."
Qin Mucheng sat obediently on the side of Qin Junshan, looking at Ji Yuanyuan eagerly.
Ji Yuanyuan smiled at him and said, "You have some too. I'll get it for you right away."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran back to the kitchen, bringing out another bowl of water.
Li Xu followed her and poured a glass for Qin Xiaomin as well.
After coming out, Qin Junshan had already started drinking.
His eyes lit up: "This water tastes good and sweet. It seems that this is really a good place. The water quality in City B is really far worse than here."
Qin Xiaomin is also from S City. After taking a sip, she said in surprise, "Why is the water in our hometown not as delicious as yours? It's really strange."
Ji Yuanyuan thought for a moment and said, "Aunt Qin, your home is so far away from mine, it's normal to have a difference."
What they drank was spiritual spring water, which was naturally incomparable to water from other places.
The Qin army was also thirsty, and they drank the water in just a few gulps.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at him with bright eyes: "Grandpa Qin, do you want to drink? Can I pour you another drink?"
Qin Junshan, who had already drunk enough, looked at Ji Yuanyuan's expectant eyes and said against his conscience: "Grandpa is not full yet."
Ji Yuanyuan quickly reached out and took the cup from Qin Junshan's hand: "Grandpa, I'll take it for you."
"Then I'll trouble Yuanyuan." Qin Junshan said with a smile.
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head: "It's not a problem at all."
It's better to drink more. Drinking more will make your body feel better.
Qin Junshan drank three cups in a row, and Ji Yuanyuan finally calmed down.
Although Lingquan water is good, drinking too much of it can kill you.
When Qin Junshan saw that Ji Yuanyuan no longer fed him water, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
After a pause, Qin Junshan looked at Qin Xiaomin and said, "Xiaomin, please run a little further and bring up the things you brought."
Upon hearing this, Li Xu quickly said politely, "Xiao Min, don't go get it. Uncle, I'm already very happy that you guys can come, what else do you need to get?"
