Chapter 85 Transcript
Author: cool beauty
Xiao Hong was very sure of his cautious approach: "Yes, we can't make it public. Why would someone deliberately use a urea bag to save money?"
Then he asked worriedly: "Besides Mr. Wu's shop, are there any other shops that have been robbed?"
Zhao Laosi was afraid of scaring them, so he hurriedly explained: "Nothing else, Boss Wu's whole family went to a relative's house for a wedding banquet that day, and no one was at home, so he was broken into."
Wu Julan also sighed: "There are so many people during the Chinese New Year these past few years, and there are also many three-handers. It would be better if we all live in the store, but I still want to keep a dog. Do you think it's okay?"
"Okay." As long as conditions permit, Zhao Laosi rarely refutes her and is willing to meet any of her requests: "Cats will bring wealth and dogs will bring wealth. We will find it from the village when we get back."
When they were in the village, they kept cats to catch mice and snakes. They didn't keep dogs because they kept geese. The domineering nature of geese is similar to that of dogs.
After moving to the town, the cat still stayed at home, and the goose became a giant goose.
However, most people in the village have cats and dogs. If they want to keep them, they can just go back and see who has kittens and puppies, grab two and raise them.
Cats and dogs are born in litters, and it is normal to have five or six litters.
Xiao Hong felt a little envious of her own mother for being able to find a man like her stepfather who had such a good temper and treated her better.
Originally, she thought that living alone would be the most peaceful and carefree life in her life.
But now that I see them getting along well as a couple, I realize that in my dream life, I was just unlucky and would meet men who were violent and perverted, and would meet parents-in-law who did not treat my daughter-in-law as a human being.
But she quickly shook off this thought. She was still so young, why should she think about it?
Xiao Fang is a very self-disciplined good girl. Even though it's summer vacation now, she still gets up at six o'clock, washes up, and goes downstairs to help.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, fewer people come out to have breakfast, because at this time, every household begins to prepare their own delicious food.
Every household in the town is not as spacious as in the countryside. It is unrealistic to raise pigs unless you have a large house. There are not many people who raise chickens and ducks.
Now that the Chinese New Year is coming, whether I have money or not, I will buy pork to marinate, and eat some dumplings and wontons first.
I will buy chickens and ducks so I can add some vegetables for the Chinese New Year.
The food at home is abundant, so I don’t crave their dumplings anymore.
So when Xiao Fang came down, she saw only five customers eating dumplings, but she was buying braised pork, so why were there still seven or eight customers surrounding her?
She went forward to help settle the accounts, collecting money and giving change.
With Xiao Fang's help, the braised food here went very quickly. When all the customers left, Wu Julan immediately served two bowls of dumplings: "You all come here and have some."
Both father and daughter came over and sat down to eat.
Zhao Laosi did not forget to care about her: "Have you eaten?"
"Eat." When Wu Julan saw someone coming over to ask about the price of braised meat, she asked them to continue eating while she went to the front to greet the guests.
After that, customers began to come to buy braised food, but compared to when there was only one braised food shop, the business was still a bit worse.
An uncle came over and asked about the price, but he was unhappy: "Why are you selling it so expensive? Su Ji sells it much cheaper than you do?"
Wu Julan was extremely angry, but she had an embarrassed look on her face: "The raw materials and seasonings of our braised pork are very expensive. If they are cheaper, we will lose money. I'm really sorry. Why don't you go buy them over there?"
Anyway, Xiao Hong asked her to say this at the beginning. Wu Julan was not happy with dealing with customers who were bargaining. Didn't she think this was pushing customers to other stores?
But Xiao Hong insisted on saying that by saying this, it would appear that the materials used at home are good, and it would also make people think they are expensive.
What's more important is that even if the Su family wants to increase the price, it won't be able to.
Moreover, their own family is confident in their own braised honey juice, and they all think that their own braised food tastes better than Su's.
After Wu Julan finished speaking, she still felt a little uneasy. She felt that the old man in front of her would probably listen to her and go to Su's house to buy something.
Unexpectedly, although the uncle complained with a dark face that their food was expensive, he still ordered half a braised chicken. After paying, he picked up the braised chicken wrapped in dried lotus leaves and said arrogantly: "Yours does taste better."
a little."
"Then you can come again in the future." Wu Julan smiled so hard that the crow's feet appeared at the corners of her eyes: "Thank you, regular customers like you, for supporting us."
After receiving the customer's approval, Wu Julan couldn't help but feel how beautiful she was. When she looked back and saw that it was already seven o'clock on the wall clock, she urged Xiao Fang who was washing dishes: "Aren't you going to school to get your report card today? Look at your sister.
The girls haven't come down yet, Fang, please hurry up and I'll cook dumplings for them."
Xiao Fang responded and went upstairs to call someone.
In fact, Xiao Hong had already woken up, but the wind was freezing outside and the weather was freezing. She really couldn't bear to leave the warm bed.
When she got her report card, she immediately beamed with joy when she saw that none of the seven subjects were red.
Although I only passed math and English, both scores were in the 60s.
But this is finally a pass.
In addition, she is the best in Chinese, with a score of 92, and her other subjects are also hovering between 70 and 80.
When she looked at Xiao Fang's scores, they made people envious. The worst score was English, with a score of 86, and the others were all above 90.
The teacher handed out transcripts, certificates, and prizes such as notebooks and pens.
Xiao Fang was only two points away from the winning classmates, and just missed out on the prize and certificate.
The class teacher did not delay the class, encouraged the students to keep up their hard work, told the students not to forget to review their homework, and then waved the students back to their homes.
Xu Xinning did well and received a certificate of excellence and a pen.
Seeing the teacher leaving, he stretched out his long arm, stuffed the pen into Xiao Fang's pocket, leaned over and whispered: "A New Year's gift for you."
Xiao Fang was looking at the English test paper that was handed out and refused without looking back: "I don't want it!"
She was a little depressed, not because there were no prizes and certificates, but because with her grades, could she be admitted to the university of her choice?
"Shall I help you review your English during the Chinese New Year?" Xu Xinning looked at her English test paper and realized that it was a pity that she had made a wrong answer: "Let's imitate the pronunciation and intonation along with the tape recorder and do some listening exercises."
Xiao Hong put her arm around her sister's shoulders: "Okay, let's go buy a tape recorder and English tapes today."
She had already said she was going to buy it, but because she didn't like English, she didn't take it to heart.
Seeing her depressed mood now, she felt sorry for her sister.
Hey, people really can't be compared.
Like herself, she was so excited that she almost floated away after passing every subject.
Now I look at my sister, even though she has such good grades, she still looks so regretful.
Xiao Hong put away the report card: "It's getting late, we have to go to the city, so hurry up."
If possible, she doesn't want anyone to see her transcript.
