"Oh? That's amazing?" Meng Yao said, pulling Zhou Xiaoyu to sit on the sofa in the rest area and asking about the process. Zhou Xiaoyu made full use of her eloquence to tell Li Jia's story in an extremely exciting way. In the end, Meng Yao couldn't help but smile and look at Li Jia sitting to the side, "Super lawyer, hehehe."
"Well, fine, I guess I'll just keep lying. I'm a little hungry now, let's get something to eat." Li Jia said, standing up and looking at Zhou Xiaoyu and Meng Yao. "Aren't you two hungry?"
"I'm starving! My stomach is practically empty. Sister Meng, have you prepared something delicious for me?" Zhou Xiaoyu asked as she led Meng Yao up the stairs to the second floor.
"Of course, the ingredients for the whole meal have been prepared long ago, but no one has cooked it yet." As soon as Meng Yao finished speaking, Li Jia had already walked into the kitchen...
Starting the next day, Zhou Xiaoyu's eyes held a new sparkle when she looked at Li Jia. While working in the shop, she hummed a newly learned song in a cheerful mood, which made Meng Yao, who was next to her, shake her head and say, "This little girl is probably in love."
At noon, Zhao Fei personally visited Meng Yao again to finalize the contract. Li Jia exercised her rights for the second time, signing her name on the contract and affixing her dry cleaning shop's seal. From today onwards, Shujia Dry Cleaning Shop will officially become the first and only dry cleaning after-sales service partner of Zuolong Men's Clothing in City B for the next two years. This marks the beginning of a high-speed and healthy operation for Li Jia's dry cleaning business.
Overjoyed, Li Jia decided to take a two-day break so that Meng Yao and Zhou Xiaoyu could be in good shape for the busy period ahead. With only a week left until Li Xiaotong's college entrance exam, and the break scheduled for this weekend, Li Jia decided to go camping so Li Xiaotong could relax before the exam.
On Friday, I informed Li Xiaoqing and her two siblings and made some careful preparations. We met early Saturday morning at the dry cleaner's. Our campsite was chosen to be Jiguanshan Mountain, about 60 kilometers from City B. Jiguanshan is one of the few places near City B that isn't listed as a tourist attraction, because although it's beautiful, it's far less well-known and imposing than the surrounding mountains. Therefore, it has become a rare camping paradise near City B.
Six people shared one car, which was a bit cramped. Fortunately, Li Xiaotong and Li Xiaoqing were both slim, and with Li Yan and Zhou Xiaoyu sitting in the back, it was quite comfortable. The back of the car was crammed with cooking utensils and seasonings, as well as three brand-new camping tents. Everyone brought their favorite food. Once everyone was ready, Li Jia started the car and set off towards Jiguanshan.
Jiguanshan Mountain is the best camping spot around City B. Jiguanshan is not very high, only about 300 meters above sea level. It gets its name from the shape of its top, which resembles a rooster's comb. The mountain is mostly covered with streams, pools, and pine forests. The gentle slopes are also covered with lush grass and wildflowers, and at this time of year, it's a popular spot for camping.
In a week, students will be taking the college entrance examination. During this time, parents will try to help their children relax and prepare for the upcoming exam. Li Jia is just one of them.
Jiguanshan Mountain came into view in the distance. The people in the car excitedly pointed to the distant mountain peak, imagining what it would be like to reach the foot of Jiguanshan. Amidst everyone's anticipation, the Passat finally arrived at the foot of Jiguanshan Mountain.
After finding a flat spot to park the car, everyone got out and breathed in the fresh air amidst the green hills and trees. Zhou Xiaoyu was the first to shout out, "Ah!!" After shouting, she ran up the hillside.
"Big brother, let's have a race later and see who can climb to the top of the mountain first." Li Xiaotong tilted his head, looking at the mountaintop that didn't look very high.
“No problem, Xiaoyan, want to come along? We're men, we can't lose to those girls, right?” Li Jia, seeing Li Xiaotong's slightly provocative gaze, readily agreed and pulled Li Yan along.
"Tch! I'd never lose to you." Li Yan glanced at Li Xiaotong's slender legs and replied confidently.
"Xiaoyu! Come back first, let's find a place to set up camp first, then we'll go hiking later!" After Li Jia finished speaking, she opened the back of the car, took out the tents, found a slightly sloping spot at the foot of the mountain, and called everyone to help carry the things over. She took out a specially prepared entrenching tool, cleared the weeds on the slope, and then took out a whole bag of wood ash and sprinkled it on the slope before setting up the three tents.
Since it was Li Jia's first time camping here, he was not familiar with the environment. However, his intuition told him that there were no large or ferocious wild animals here, and there shouldn't be too many snakes. The only thing to watch out for was small things like mosquitoes and ants. A layer of wood ash would be enough to protect him from them.
Landslides and rockfalls are not a concern here; the only concern is flooding. This is because the mountains here are full of streams and pools, and once it rains, small-scale floods will inevitably occur. Therefore, choosing a high slope is essential. In addition, there is a stream below the slope, and the tent opening is facing away from the slope, which basically eliminates the influence of wind.
Li Jia checked the tents again, looking left and right, and only after confirming that there were basically no hidden dangers did she turn around and find everyone staring at her without moving. "What's up? The tents are set up and it's time to eat. How about it? Want to have a barbecue in the wild?"
