100 Chapter 99, Surprise
Zhang Kun did not see Li Xu. He looked around and saw that she was busy in the kitchen. He opened the black plastic bag in his hand and said, âThank you for your hard work today. Uncle Zhang bought ice cream.â
Seeing this, Ji Ziâangâs eyes lit up, âUncle Zhang, youâre the best.â
Cold food made people prone to diarrhea, so Li Xu did not buy ice cream for them in the summer.
Zhang Kun reached out and took out green ice cream. He then handed the rest to Ji Ziâang, âTake it and share it with your Brother, Sister, and Aunt.â
âThank you, Uncle Zhang.â
âThank you, Brother-in-law.â
The children and Li Miao spoke almost at the same time.
Zhang Kun took the green ice cream into the kitchen.
âWhy are you here? Go out and help them count the money,â Li Xu said with a chuckle.
Zhang Kun didnât say anything. He just tore open the packaging of the ice cream and put it in Li Xuâs mouth, âCome, take a bite!â
Li Xu looked down and shook her head, âI donât eat this stuff. Take it out and give it to Yuanyuan and the others.â
Who wouldnât like to eat ice cream in summer?
Zhang Kun knew that Li Xu was reluctant to eat it, so he immediately put the ice cream on Li Xuâs lips, âThey all got one. This is specially reserved for you.â
The ice cream was already on her lips, so Li Xu had no choice but to take a bite.
The ice-cold ice cream slid down her throat as if her whole body had become refreshed.
Li Xu Sighed in satisfaction and said, âYou can eat the rest.â
Zhang Kun handed the ice cream over again, âTake it and eat it yourself.â
Li Xu hesitated for a moment, then wiped her right hand on the apron and took the ice cream.
Zhang Kun pushed Li Xu to the side and took the bowl from the sink, âYou can go out, Iâll wash it.â
Li Xu hurriedly said, âLeave it, Iâll wash it after eating.â
Zhang Kun was about to say something when Ji Ziâang rushed in excitedly, âMom, weâve calculated it. We made a total of 118 Yuan today!â
Zhang Kun was surprised, âSo much!â
Ji Ziâang raised his head proudly, âOf course, we even sold it at a discount price today. If we sold it at the original price, there would be even more!â
âMy silly Son, if we sold it at the original price, why would there be so many people buying it? When the event is over, the turnover will definitely not be this high.â
However, Li Xu was already very satisfied.
She had earned a monthâs rent!
Li Miao tidied up the entire money and placed it in the drawer of Li Xuâs bedroom. The change was then put back into a plastic bag, ready to be brought to the shop the next day.
Zhang Kun stayed here for a while before leaving.
The activities in Li Xuâs shop lasted for a total of three days, and the turnover for these three days was getting lower and lower.
On the fourth day, the activities ended. After the whole day, the turnover was only around fifty yuan.
However, even so, Li Xu was very satisfied.
Compared to the market, it was much better. Moreover, there was at least a fan blowing in the shop, which was always more comfortable than the market.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, Li Miao went back.
On the fifth day, only Li Xu was left in the shop.
Seeing that school would start in less than a month and the shop had stabilized, Li Xu ordered the three children to do their homework at home.
The whole morning was relatively relaxing. After closing the door for a while in the afternoon and hurriedly making food for the children, she was about to take the food to the shop when there was a knock on the door.
Li Xu was busy with her hands, so she ordered Ji Ziâang, âZiâang, open the door and see who it is.â
Ji Ziâang answered and ran to the door barefooted to open it.
Li Xu mumbled helplessly, âPut on your slippers, itâs cold on the floor...â
âAiya, I know, Mom, donât... Grandpa Qin?â Before Ji Ziâang could finish his sentence, his eyes widened and his voice became louder.
Qin Junshan panted lightly and said with a smile, âHow is it? Are you surprised to see Grandpa Qin?â
Ji Ziâang stuck his head out and looked behind him, âGrandpa Qin, Uncle Qin and Auntie Cheng arenât here? Why are there only you and Brother Mucheng?â
Standing at the door were only Qin Junshan, Qin Mucheng, and Qin Xiaomin.
Behind them, Li Xu had already come out. She was also a little surprised to see Qin Junshan, âUncle, come in and have a seat.â
When Ji Yuanyuan saw Qin Junshan coming over, she quickly ran to the kitchen to get some water.
Qin Xiaomin and Qin Mucheng supported Qin Junshan on his left and right as they entered the house.
After Qin Junshan sat down, he answered Ji Ziâang, âYour Uncle Qin and Auntie Cheng were busy, but Mucheng and I missed you guys, so we came over.â
Ji Ziâang suddenly chuckled and looked at Qin Mucheng, âDonât tell me that Brother Mucheng missed Yuanyuan?â
Ji Yuanyuan, who was carrying water out of the kitchen: ...
She looked at Ji Ziâang with a fake smile. What was this guy thinking?
He wasnât smart when he should be, but he becomes smart when he shouldnât be.
She brought the water forward and placed the tea in front of Qin Junshan, âGrandpa Qin, you must be tired. Hurry up and drink some water to moisten your throat.â
Qin Mucheng obediently sat at the side of Qin Junshan and looked at Ji Yuanyuan with eager eyes.
...
Ji Yuanyuan smiled at him, âYou have some too. Iâll go and get it for you now.â
After she said that, she turned around and ran back to the kitchen, bringing out another glass of water.
Li Xu followed her and poured a cup for Qin Xiaomin as well.
After coming out, Qin Junshan had already drunk the water.
His eyes lit up, âThis water is delicious and sweet. It seems that this place is really a good place. The quality of the water in B City is far inferior to this place.â
Qin Xiaomin was also from S City. After taking a sip, she said somewhat strangely, âWhy is the water at our place not as good as yours? Itâs really strange.â
Ji Yuanyuan thought for a moment and said, âAunt Qin, your house is far from mine. Itâs normal for there to be differences.â
The water they drank was from a spiritual spring. Naturally, the water from other places could not compare to it.
Qin Junshang was also thirsty. He raised his head and drank up the water in a few mouthfuls.
Ji Yuanyuanâs eyes lit up as he looked at him, âGrandpa Qin, are you still going to drink? Iâll pour it for you again, okay?â
Qin Junshan, who was already full, looked at Ji Yuanyuanâs expectant gaze and could only say without conscience, âGrandpa does still not have enough.â
...
Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly reached out to take the cup from Qin Junshanâs hand, âGrandpa, Iâll take it for you.â
âThen Iâll have to trouble Yuanyuan, âQin Junshan said with a smile.
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head, âItâs not troublesome at all.â
It would be better if he drank more. Only by drinking more could his body get better.
Qin Junshan drank three cups in a row before Ji Yuanyuan finally stopped.
Although the spirit spring water was good, drinking too much of it could fill people to death.
Seeing that Ji Yuanyuan no longer fed him water, Qin Junshan secretly heaved a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
After pausing for a moment, Qin Junshan looked at Qin Xiaomin, âXiaomin, Iâll have to trouble you to make another trip to bring the things upstairs.â
Hearing that, Li Xu hurriedly said politely, âXiaomin, donât go and bring them up. Uncle, Iâm already very happy that you guys can come. Whatâs the point of bringing anything up?â
