Chapter 73

In the black market, Shen Qingli and Cui Jingqing both covered their faces and walked side by side.

Cui Jingqing is mainly responsible for taking things.

She once again witnessed Shen Qingli’s shopping ability!

I bought 20 kilograms of flour, rice, millet, and cornmeal, and 50 kilograms of miscellaneous grains.

These were a bit heavy, so the sales guy promised to deliver them to the intersection later.

Shen Qingli’s bicycle is over there.

After making an appointment, Shen Qingli continued to shop. If she saw a meat seller, she would buy from him. If she saw a fruit seller, she would buy from him.

They also bought some daily necessities, filling up Shen Qingli’s basket, and Cui Jingqing also had a bunch of things in her arms.

Shen Qingli stopped purchasing when she realized that she couldn’t take any more.

“Let’s go. Qingqing, thank you for your hard work. When my house is built, come to my house and I’ll treat you to a meal.” Shen Qingli said with a smile.

“Qingli, don’t be formal with me. We are sisters without biological parents. This little thing is not worth mentioning, but we still have to eat.” Cui Jingqing smiled brightly.

The two chatted as they walked toward where they parked their bicycles. Soon, the guy delivering the grain arrived and helped them bundle up the grain.

“Okay, sisters. I’m leaving.” The young man said with a smile.

“Thank you.” Shen Qingli thanked her.

The young man smiled and said, “You’re welcome.”

He waved his hand, turned around and left, walked a few steps, and looked back at Shen Qingli, thinking she looked familiar…

Shen Qingli didn’t know what the young man was thinking. She pushed the cart and Cui Jingqing helped her hold it. The two of them went to find Cui Jingming together.

Cui Jingming had been circling around the car and immediately went over to meet them when he saw the two people.

“I’ll push the cart.” Cui Jingming said.

“Thank you.” Shen Qingli smiled.

“Qingli, if you don’t mind, join Qingqing in calling me brother.” Cui Jingming pushed the cart, his eyes falling on Shen Qingli’s face.

Shen Qingli understood what Cui Jingming meant. He wanted to bring them closer together and he was very sincere about it.

Shen Qingli was not a shy person. When she asked Cui Jingqing for help, she had already been thinking about getting closer to them. Zhou Yubai also had the same idea.

There are not many people that Zhou Yubai is willing to actively contact.

“Yeah, okay, big brother.”

Cui Jingming tightened his grip on the car’s armrest slightly, and he could hardly suppress the smile on his lips.

“Um.”

Cui Jingqing took Shen Qingli’s arm and said, “Brother, Qingli said she would invite us to her home for dinner after the house is built.”

“Okay, I’ll be there.” Cui Jingming responded immediately.

The three of them went to the car together and put all their things in it.

“Brother, Qingqing, I’m going to the school to pick up my son. You guys go to Kaoshantun and wait for me first.” Shen Qingli said.

“Let’s go with you to pick up the kids.” Cui Jingming said. After putting the things down, it would be no problem for two more people to sit there.

“There’s no room for the bicycle.” Shen Qingli also wanted to let Gou Wa ride in a car, as he had never ridden one before.

“It’s okay, I’ll change the car. You go to school first and I’ll find you later.” Cui Jingming said. His unit has many cars, so he can just change to a pickup truck. It can carry more things and four people can sit in the front.

Shen Qingli could see that Cui Jingming was not being polite and did not reject his kindness.

Told him the address of the school.

Act separately.

Shen Qingli went to school first.

School teacher’s office.

Gou Wa has finished answering all the papers.

The teacher had finished grading the papers, and when he saw Shen Qingli, he smiled brightly.

“Hello, Ruirui’s parents. Ruirui is an excellent child. He got full marks in both math and Chinese. With this grade, there will be no problem for him to go directly to the fifth grade next semester.” The teacher said with a smile.

No matter what era, teachers are very enthusiastic towards parents of children who are good at studying.

“Thank you, teacher. You have worked hard. Can our Ruirui come to school tomorrow?” Shen Qingli asked.

“Teacher, I want to go directly to the fifth grade next semester and not come this month. Is that okay with you?” Gou Wa said, tugging at Shen Qingli’s sleeve.

One month less of work means one month less of salary payment.

He knows how to do it anyway, so he should save money where necessary.

Shen Qingli: My son is really good at managing his life, what can I do?

The teacher looked at the sensible Gou Wa, raised her hand and patted his shoulder, “Just complete the admission procedures today, and come back to school when the next semester starts. Rui Rui has indeed mastered the fourth grade knowledge, so it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t come.”

“Thank you, teacher.” Gou Wa bowed to the teacher to express his gratitude.

Shen Qingli also hurriedly thanked the teacher and handed the snacks she had prepared for the teacher.

“Teacher, this is a token of my appreciation.”

“No, no, I can’t accept this. I’m so happy that such a good child can come to our class. How can I take your things?” The teacher hurriedly refused.

“Teacher, you’re welcome. It’s just a small gift from our family.” Shen Qingli insisted. The two of them pulled each other for a long time, and finally the teacher couldn’t persuade Shen Qingli and accepted it.

She thanked him somewhat embarrassedly and walked Shen Qingli and her son to the school gate.

I saw a pickup truck parked at the door.

Cui Jingqing and Cui Jingming were waiting nearby. When they saw Shen Qingli and Gou Wa, they went over to greet them.

“Hello Ruirui, I’m Dr. Cui. Do you still remember me?” Cui Jingqing said with a smile.

“Hello, Dr. Cui.” Gou Wa greeted politely and turned to look at Shen Qingli. He knew that Shen Qingli had saved Dr. Cui’s mother.

“Call Aunt Cui.” Shen Qingli reminded, “This is Uncle Cui.”

“Hello, Aunt Cui, hello, Uncle Cui.” Gou Wa greeted them both politely.

“This child is really sensible. Qingli, you taught him really well.” Cui Jingming praised.

Gou Wa was a little embarrassed, but he still behaved calmly and confidently.

“Let’s get in the car, let’s go back first.” Cui Jingqing said.

“Okay.” Shen Qingli responded, said goodbye to Gou Wa and the teacher, and then got on the car. Cui Jingming put the bicycles behind the car.

Soon, the car started.

Gou Wa’s teacher watched the car go away before he withdrew his gaze. This Zhou Shurui’s family is not simple…

In the car.

It was Gou Wa’s first time riding in a car. He was curious and nervous. Although he kept telling himself not to move or look around or embarrass his mother, he still couldn’t help looking around.

“Ruirui, Uncle Cui is a very good friend of mom. You can look around. It’s okay.” Shen Qingli encouraged in a gentle voice.

Gou Wa looked at Shen Qingli.

“Ruirui, take a look around. After we deliver the things, your uncle will take you out for a walk alone.” Cui Jingming really likes Gou Wa. He feels attracted to this child as soon as he sees him.

Gou Wa looked at Cui Jingming happily, “Thank you, Uncle Cui. I’m very curious and I like it very much.”

“Haha, as long as you like it.” Cui Jingming took the initiative to chat with Gou Wa.

The two of them chatted, one sentence at a time, and it was quite lively.

Shen Qingli and Cui Jingqing were also talking in low voices.

Soon, the car drove into Kaoshantun.

As soon as the car came in, Kaoshantun exploded!

This is the first time a car has come to their village… Who are they here to see?
