149 Chapter 148, Pick A Name

She was only a high school graduate, but her language skills were not that good when she was in school.

“What do you think? What should I name it?” Li Xu subconsciously asked Ji Yuanyuan.

After asking, she felt that she was a little silly.

She could not even think of one. Yuanyuan was only a seven-year-old child. How could she think of one?

Just as she was about to speak, she heard Ji Yuanyuan say, “Why don’t we call it Vegetable Garden? Others will know that we sell vegetables the moment they hear it. Moreover, there’s a Yuan character from my name!”

Li Xu looked at Ji Yuanyuan and was a little surprised for a moment.

Ji Yuanyuan pretended to be a little embarrassed and blinked her eyes. Shee asked, “What’s wrong, Mommy? Is it because I gave it a bad name?”

“How can that be?” Li Xu excitedly picked ji Yuanyuan up from the ground, “Mom is a little surprised, is my daughter a genius? Why is she so good at giving names?”

Hearing Li Xu’s deliberately exaggerated words, Ji Yuanyuan reached out her hand to cover her mouth and secretly laughed.

“Well, my daughter must be a genius!”

Ji Yuanyuan leaned over and kissed Li Xu on the face. She also imitated Li Xu’s exaggerated tone, “Then you must be the genius’s Mom!”

The mother and daughter played for a while before they locked the door and headed home.

“Mommy will go find someone tomorrow and hang up the sign! I’ll call Grandpa some other day and tell him that Mommy has a friend who needs vegetables, I’ll buy all of them.”

Li Xu did not know what was going on. Although her daughter was only a child, she would habitually tell her daughter if there was anything happening now.

When the two of them returned home, Li Xu patted Ji Yuanyuan’s butt and put her down, “Go and do your homework!”

She was basically not worried about Yuanyuan’s studies at the moment.

Anyway, there was space, so her homework could always be done.

Moreover, her daughter was very obedient. She basically did her homework without being urged by others.

She went to Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang’s room to take a look.

The family had been in the countryside for the past two days, and a lot of things had happened. In addition, Zi’ang was not feeling well, so the two brothers did not do much homework. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Li Xu reached out and touched Ji Zi’ang’s head. She asked in a whisper, “Have you taken your medicine? Are you still feeling unwell?”

Ji Zi’ang kept his head down and rushed to finish his homework. He answered perfunctorily, “I’ve eaten, I’m very well!”

Li Xu did not care about him anymore. She loaded up the children’s clothes and put them into the washing machine.

After drying the clothes, the two brothers were still rushing their homework. Ji Yuanyuan had already finished her homework and was lying on the bed reading a comic book.

She was probably a little bored as she flip the book and lie on the bed in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking about!

Li Xu took a piece of wool from the side and sat on the sofa.

The weather was getting colder and colder. Ji Zi’ang had grown quite a lot in the past year. He probably wouldn’t be able to wear the sweater and sweater pants from last year.

She thought about adding a section of wool to the sleeves and legs of the pants. This was still the wool from before, so people probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference even if she added it.

As she knitted, she thought to herself, I’ll have to go take a look some other day and buy a television for the children.

The children were all so hardworking these days. If she bought a television, they would be able to save some face among her classmates.

She had been poor since she was young. She knew how it felt to be poor in front of her friends.

Therefore, she did not want her children to be different from the other students.

If the other students had a television set at home, she would have one at home too.

Just as she was thinking, someone was knocking on the door, “Sister, it’s me, open the door and help!”

It was Li Yong’s voice, Li Xu quickly put down the things in her hands and went to open the door.

Just as she opened the door, she saw Li Yong carrying a big sack on his back and carrying bags of different sizes.

“Aiya, I’m so tired!”

He entered the door and gulped down a bucket of water before collapsing on the sofa.

Hearing Li Yong’s voice, Ji Yuanyuan walked out of the bedroom with her short legs.

“Second Uncle, why did you take so many things? Have you already resigned?” Ji Yuanyuan asked curiously.

Li Yong smiled and nodded. Then, he looked at Li Xu and said, “Sis, I ran into a good thing, my Luck is too good!”

“Why? What good thing did you get after you resigned?” Li Xu looked at him strangely, “You found money?”

Li Yong was elated, “Something like that!”

Hearing that, Ji Yuanyuan was also happy. She ran to Li Yong’s side and sat down, “How much money did you find? Is it a lot of money?”

Li Yong stretched out a palm and waved it at Ji Yuanyuan.

“Five... ten?” Ji Yuanyuan did not dare to guess too much.

Li Yong shook his head, “It’s five hundred!”

This time, even Li Xu was a little surprised, “So much? Where did you find it? You have to return it to someone!”

Li Yong smiled and said, “I didn’t pick it up, but it’s about the same as picking it up for free. I was going to quit my job, but when I went to the restaurant today, the boss told me that the restaurant was going to be closed. He felt sorry for us, so everyone get 500 Yuan as compensation and told us to look for jobs again!”

Thinking of the situation at that time, Li Yong was still glad that he didn’t speak first. Otherwise, wouldn’t the 500 Yuan would be gone?

“Moreover, the boss settled the money for us at that time and let us pack up and leave!” Li Yong carried the 500 Yuan and looked at Ji Yuanyuan happily, “Second Uncle is rich now, what do you want to eat? Let’s go buy it tomorrow!”

Poor Second Uncle was so happy because of the 500 Yuan.

Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Yong and patted his shoulder sympathetically, “No need, Second Uncle, save it for your wife.”

...

Li Yong did not hear the sympathy in Ji Yuanyuan’s words at all. Instead, he was very pleased with this sentence, “Yuanyuan, you’re the most sensible one!”

After saying that, he looked at Li Xu, “Then, sister, I’ll stay here for the next few days. I’ll rest for a day tomorrow, then go out to find some business the day after tomorrow.”

“There’s no need, I have a friend who is a vegetable vendor. He told me that he will take all the vegetables in our house and charge 40 cents for them!” Li Xu was very skilled at lying. Her face was not red and her heart was not beating faster.

“40 cents?” Li Yong was a little surprised and said casually, “This friend of yours is quite loyal. Invite him to our house some other day and have a meal together.”

Li Xu said without changing her expression, “He can earn 40 cents too. Our family’s quality is good, although I know him, can he do bad business?”

Li Yong Thought for a moment and felt that it made sense.

He nodded, “Since there’s a buyer, I’ll go home tomorrow.”

Seeing that Li Yong was so diligent now, Li Xu was quite satisfied. She immediately said, “Alright, leave the things that you can’t bring here. When you go back, talk to Xiao Lei and enlighten him.”

After today’s incident, although he didn’t say it out loud, he definitely felt uncomfortable in his heart!

Speaking of Li Lei, the smile on Li Yong’s face gradually disappeared, “I know, Sister, don’t worry!”
