Xu Yin pretended not to notice her actions and quickly picked up the rice in the bowl.
After finishing eating, he stood up and said, "Mom, I'm going to carry the vegetables to the car. You eat slowly. After we're done, we'll set off. We'll wash the dishes when we come back."
The most important thing is to grab a stall.
Xu Wanping didn’t say any more and took the time to eat.
Unexpectedly, after she quickly finished cooking, her daughter had already loaded all the vegetables she wanted to sell today onto a second-hand electric tricycle.
“Yinyin, you moved all this?” Xu Wanping couldn’t believe her eyes.
How many minutes has it been? Can your daughter handle it all by herself?
“Well, let’s go quickly! Mom, sit down and I’ll take you!”
Xu Yin stroked her sleeves and looked eager to try. She hadn’t ridden a bike in a long time!
I don’t know if there will be energy point rewards for this ride.
“Mom, sit up quickly! I’m going to go!”
…”
Xu Wanping was still a little unable to react until she sat on the edge of the electric tricycle and was driven to the night market by her daughter.
When did you learn to ride an electric tricycle? I've never seen her ride one before.
“Comrades at the front, please give way! Give way!”
In a place with a large flow of people, Xu Yin honked the horn to no avail. While shouting, she slowed down and nimbly moved through the crowd.
Xu Wanping has been riding this road for no less than seven or eight years. It is no exaggeration to say that she can walk on it with her eyes closed.
But when there are many people, they don’t dare to ride fast for fear of colliding with passers-by.
Unexpectedly, it was the first time for my daughter to ride a bicycle, and she was pulling half a cart of vegetables and carrying a mother. She walked through the long alley and arrived at the stall in less than five minutes.
"Yinyin, you ride much faster than me, but next time you have to be careful in a crowded place, it is better to go slower."
Having said that, Xu Wanping smiled happily when she saw that the place where stalls were usually set up was still empty: "That's great! We have saved the time we spent eating."
Xu Yin helped her unload the vegetables from the car.
“Yinyin, if you have something to do, go home first. Mom will take care of it.” Xu Wanping said, laying out plastic wrap and neatly stacking the dishes.
"What can I do during the summer vacation?" Xu Yin said while moving vegetables, "I have nothing to do at home."
With the lowest score in the school, I was admitted to a third-rate vocational high school with the lowest admission threshold in the city.
General high school students, such as Lu Yunran, and the heroine of the original text, this summer vacation are either busy attending cram schools or writing questions and papers by themselves to prepare for the freshman year of high school. What can she be busy with as a vocational high school student?
“I’m right here with you.”
Xu Wanping was extremely happy after hearing this. She handed her daughter a small stool and a watering can: "Then you sit on the stool and help mom spray some water on the vegetables."
Summer is about to come, and the weather is sultry and hot. Leafy vegetables are prone to wilting after being left out for a while. Spray some water mist from time to time to keep the vegetables moist, and they will look much better.
Xu Yin took the small watering can as instructed and glanced inside: "Mom, what kind of water is this?"
“Tap water, what kind of water can it be?”
"oh."
She quietly drew a small drop of spiritual dew water into it, shook it slightly, and sprayed the vegetables on the stall in turn.
Leng Buding thought of the various fairy spray emoticons popular in later generations, such as God-testing spray, universal spray, salary increase spray, good luck spray...
Xu Yin couldn't help but feel happy thinking about it, and said to herself while spraying: "Come on, come on! Vegetable babies, let me give you a sip of fairy water, and try to sell it as soon as possible."
No, as soon as I sat down on the small bench, business came to me. “Boss, how many amaranths are there?”
The aunt who bought vegetables not only ordered a handful of amaranths, but also saw that the cucumbers and tomatoes on the stall looked very good, so she weighed a little of each.
Most of the people who come to buy food at this time are office workers, who pick up some food to go home for dinner on the way home from get off work.
This is the only night market that allows street vendors, and the business is quite good with people coming and going.
There are many stalls selling vegetables. Xu Wanping does not seek to be the only one, she just wants to be able to sell all the vegetables she brings in every time.
I don’t have a large refrigerated cabinet at home, so if I can’t sell out all the items, I have to take them to a late-night snack shop for a discount.
Otherwise, the weather will be completely dry tomorrow, and no one will even want the discount.
“Business today is much better than the previous few days. Half of the items were sold before five o’clock.”
After sending away a few more grocery shopping customers, Xu Wanping wiped her sweat and said with a satisfied smile:
“There will be a wave of people coming after half past five, and half of the carts of vegetables will definitely be sold out tonight.”
“Mom, drink some water.” Xu Yin handed her a bottle of mineral water.
Xu Wanping waved her hand: "You can drink, I'm not thirsty."
It is a lie to say that I am not thirsty. After serving so many customers, my mouth is dry.
But she forgot to bring a kettle with her when she went out today. Mineral water costs two or three yuan a bottle. How can she be willing to drink it? Anyway, the vegetables will be sold out in an hour, so she can drink it when she gets home.
Xu Yin unscrewed the bottle cap and stuffed it into her hand: "Drink when you're thirsty, otherwise what's the point of making money?"
…”
“Your daughter is so filial!” a customer who came to buy groceries complimented her.
Xu Wanping was very happy after hearing this.
Even though her daughter often talks back to her, especially when she enters adolescence, the mother and daughter often quarrel, at this moment, she feels that her daughter is filial and caring.
"Grandma Hou next door always said that studying in a vocational high school is useless, but mom still decided to let you go." Xu Wanping said resolutely, "Regardless of whether you will be successful in the future, staying in school for three more years is better than finding a job now. "
My daughter’s grades are poor. She only scored 250 points in the high school entrance examination and physical education. Apart from a third-rate vocational high school, there is really no other school she can go to.
Several neighbor old ladies in the community who often buy groceries from her learned about her daughter’s grades from Mrs. Hou next door and advised her more than once to find a job for her daughter.
"Xiao Xu, it's not that we old ladies don't like your daughter. It's really not interesting to study in a vocational high school. Do you think you can find a good job with a vocational high school diploma? It's almost as hard to find one as a junior high school graduate. Otherwise, why are there so many people? You have to go to those 985 or 211 universities. To put it bluntly, it is getting harder and harder to find a job. It is better to work now and accumulate some work experience in three years. Going to a vocational high school is just throwing money into the water, and it means that the reputation is good. point."
"Yes, Xiao Xu, you see how hard it is for you to make some money. You get up early in the morning, in the dark, in the wind and rain. If your daughter studies well, then of course you have to grit your teeth and pay for it, but with this little score, it's really unnecessary. .”
Xu Wanping also struggled with whether to send her daughter to a vocational high school.
But think about it, my daughter is only sixteen years old. Even though she started elementary school a year later than her peers, and she turned sixteen last month, if she enters the society now, what if she is like me back then - being coaxed away by someone with a few sweet words? What should I do if I fall in love or get married early? After all, there are still teachers watching in school, but things are complicated in society.
After much thought, Xu Wanping decided to send her daughter to a vocational high school.
At the worst she could go to a few more places and set up stalls, she would be able to earn back her tuition fees in three years.
“Mom, don’t worry, I will work hard!” Xu Yin said with a clasped hand, “You can go to university just like a vocational high school student. I will work hard to catch up and try to get into a good university in three years.”
Xu Wanping was so thirsty that she couldn't help it. She just took a sip of water and almost choked on these words.
…”
I studied in junior high school for three years and almost couldn’t even go to a vocational high school. I finally managed to get into a school with the lowest score, and I got in just because I didn’t know where to go. How do you expect to get into a good university in three years?
Is it possible that my daughter has some misunderstanding about her score of 250? Excluding the 30 points for physical education, Yin Yin, you actually only scored 220.
The terrible shock hit her, and Xu Wanping resisted saying anything.
Forget it, it’s always a good thing to be motivated, even if it’s a bit unrealistic.
