Chapter 293 The Couple’s Little Troubles
Back in the kitchen and continuing to cook, Lin Xiuhong took a plate of shredded pork from Ying Chanxi and smoothly poured it into the pot and stir-fried.
Soon, a plate of shredded pork with green peppers came out of the pot, and Ying Chanxi next to him reached out to take it.
At this time, Lin Xiuhong's eyes sharpened and she suddenly noticed the bracelet on Ying Chanxi's wrist. She couldn't help but asked curiously: "Huh? Xixi, your bracelet looks very similar to mine?"
"Um...this?" Ying Chanxi blushed slightly and whispered, "It was a gift from Li Luo on my birthday before. It should be bought from the same store as Aunt Lin's bracelet."
"No wonder." Lin Xiuhong nodded with a smile, looked at it carefully again, and compared it with her bracelet, "But it's still a little different. My jade medal is blue, and yours is White. "
Ying Chanxi also stretched out his hand and touched Lin Xiuhong's wrist, and both of them looked at it.
Then Lin Xiuhong laughed and said, "When we walked out like this, people thought we were mother and daughter."
Ying Chanxi's face turned red when she heard this, and she felt happy in her heart, and she wanted to refute it at all. He didn't even mean anything, so he just nodded in acquiescence.
After a short interlude, Li Guohong and Li Luo also drove back from West Street.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Guohong was stunned and saw the two little girls in the living room standing up from the sofa.
One helped him take out the spare slippers from the shoe cabinet, and the other reached out and took the briefcase he was carrying around for show.
Then Yan Zhusheng and Xu Youyu called out uncle, leaving Li Guohong in a daze for a while, a little unresponsive.
"Uncle Li, are you here?" Ying Chanxi poked his head out of the kitchen at this time and smiled sweetly at him, "Sit down for a while, Aunt Lin and I will be there soon Lunch is ready."
"Oh, oh..." Li Guohong nodded in a daze, put on the slippers that Yan Zhusheng took out for him, and followed Li Luo to the edge of the sofa to sit down, " Are you... watching TV?"
Just coming back from his trance, Li Guohong was a bit speechless.
But Xu Youyu still sat aside and chatted with Li Guohong familiarly.
Yan Zhusheng was not very good at chatting, so he sat down next to Li Luo and listened quietly, while pouring a glass of water for Li Guohong.
During the Chinese New Year, these two little girls went to the countryside as guests. Li Guohong didn't feel much about it. At that time, he just thought that they came to play in Yingchanxi.
But now that he came to Bihailanting, he had some kind of illusion for the first time... It was as if after Li Luo got married, he was a guest in the wedding room where he just got married...< br>
But when I thought about it again, I felt that this idea was not good. After all, there were three little girls in this room... It was a bit disrespectful.
But when he thought of this, Li Guohong, like Lin Xiuhong, actually suffered from difficulty in choosing. He looked at Xu Youyu beside him who was chatting with him in a generous manner, and then at the side who was obediently pouring water for him. Yan Zhusheng.
Then Li Guohong turned his head and glanced at the kitchen, looking at Ying Chanxi who was accompanying Lin Xiuhong and doing her homework seriously.
If all three of them were his daughters-in-law... it wouldn't be impossible, it feels pretty good.
Li Guohong just dreamed like this in his heart, and then immediately gave up this unrealistic fantasy, silently thinking about his sins, Lao Ying, don't blame him, that's all he thought about.
“It’s time to eat.” Lin Xiuhong walked out of the kitchen carrying the dishes.
Following Yingchan Creek.
Seeing this, Yan Zhusheng and Xu Youyu also walked into the kitchen to help bring out the remaining dishes.
Li Luo followed in and took six pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
Li Guohong sat at the main seat of the dining table, watching the three little girls in front of him busy back and forth behind Lin Xiuhong, and couldn't help but sigh again.
It looks like, it looks like!
The number of people is just not right.
After a few minutes, all six people sat down and started eating.
Lin Xiuhong asked what happened after she left just now.
Li Guohong thought about it and said: "The landlord of the hot pot restaurant is still struggling. He said he would reply to me before the end of June."
"The landlord of the fruit shop also told me later If no one comes to rent her store this month, she will consider taking action."
"As for the landlord of the milk tea shop and breakfast shop, you were also present at the time. We will attend the parent-teacher meeting next week. Let’s talk to him about the details of the contract.”
“If everything goes well, the deal will probably be completed this month.”
“Did Sister Lulu talk about the loan? Li Luo asked.
“As I said before, we have already contacted you.” Li Guohong chuckled and said, “Their manager is quite enthusiastic. If you have connections with the bank over there, the loan interest rate will be preferential and the approval speed will be fast. Hurry up.”
"Xue Feng and Lu Lu specially invited us over for dinner before, but it's a pity that you were in school at that time and didn't invite you." Lin Xiuhong said, "Didn't you say before that you could put the deposit in Lu Lu's name? She is now It can be considered as a promotion by half, and I will probably be promoted in the second half of the year."
"It's that simple?" Li Luo was stunned for a moment, a little unexpected.
"The manager over there heard about our family's income." Li Guohong rolled his eyes, "You now have a net income of hundreds of thousands per month, so you can be considered a big customer for them."
"According to Lulu." Lin Xiuhong added, "It is rare in our Yinjiang District to have such a large personal income, even executives of large companies or some small business owners. It’s not that much in a month. It’s a big achievement for you.”
“As long as it’s useful.” Li Luo scratched his head, not really understanding this.
After all, he had never experienced the feeling of making so much money in a month in his previous life, and he really didn't understand this situation very well.
He originally thought that he would have to earn a million dollars a month to be considered a big customer of the bank.
What Li Luo didn't know was that if it was a company's public bank account, it was very common for the turnover to be millions or tens of millions, but these were not pure profits after all.
Some business owners may make tens of millions of dollars a month, but once the company’s various costs are deducted, what they can actually get is only two to three hundred thousand a month.
It is impossible for those bosses who claim to be worth tens of millions to just spend millions in cash flow.
Many are company assets.
This is a strange attribute of Internet article authors.
Because the royalties earned are really pure cash, without any ambiguity.
For banks, this is a high-quality customer.
Debt-free and high net worth, especially for authors like Li Luo who have already made their mark, their income is actually very stable.
When issuing a loan contract to such a customer, bank managers are always in a hurry to send money, for fear of losing business to other banks.
It’s a sure-fire business.
"Speaking of which." Li Guohong was halfway through his meal when he suddenly thought of something, "When the time comes to buy this milk tea shop, breakfast shop, etc., what will we do with it? Both stores have said that they will be closed by the end of June. The lease has been renewed."
"I have an idea." After hearing what his father said, Li Luo remembered an idea he had had before and said, "Why don't you let your uncle come?"
"Huh?" Li Guohong was stunned for a moment, unable to react.
Lin Xiuhong next to her was also startled, and then said: "What are you talking about? It's quite easy for your uncle to drive a truck, right? They are all companies owned by relatives, and the salary is not too low..."
" You don’t know yet, right?” Li Luo laughed and shook his head, “Uncle, he drives a truck during the day and pushes an electric tricycle at night. He sells fried rice at the side door of our dormitory in the No. 1 Middle School every day. He can make a profit in a month. "Xiao Yiwan."
"What?" Lin Xiuhong was really surprised, "What's wrong with this guy? I've never seen him work so hard before. Why is he suddenly trying to make money?" Are you interested?”
“Um… I want to buy a car.”
“Tsk.” Lin Xiuhong frowned, “I can’t find a car.” Does the partner matter? Xiufeng really does. "
"I don't think so." Seeing his mother say this, Li Luo encouraged him, "Look at my uncle, he usually drives a truck during the day. There is no chance to meet girls.”
“Look at this milk tea shop, it is located at the west gate of Qianjiang University. When the subway opens, there will definitely be a lot of traffic.”
< br>"There are all girls around the university. My uncle's appearance is said to be in his thirties, but he looks no worse than a young man in his mid-twenties."
"This girl I contacted There are so many children, how can I find someone who can look right?”
“The breakfast shop will not be opened, but it will be opened directly and become a larger milk tea shop, with a front desk and a kitchen on the other side. It’s a casual seat.”
"When college students are bored, order a cup of milk tea and sit here. Doesn't uncle have the conditions to meet girls?"
Lin Xiuhong was a little moved by what he said.
After all these years, Lin Xiufeng's marriage has been a long-lasting concern in their family.
Only when her family urged her to do so, Lin Xiufeng would run away. In the most exaggerated case, she even went to other provinces and refused to come back for two or three years.
Now that he is settled at home, Li Luo's grandparents don't dare to rush him anymore. They can only wait for him to get the idea on his own.
Now that Li Luo said this, Lin Xiuhong immediately hesitated and glanced at Li Guohong.
“Why are you looking at me?” Li Guohong said with a smile, “I negotiated the store, but the money was all paid by our son. Xiu Feng said, let’s see if he’s happy to take charge of the store.”
“Anyway, the subway hasn’t opened yet. If the lease here is not renewed, it will probably be like that fruit shop, which will always be empty. Let’s rent it.”
“It’s better to let Xiufeng take care of it. He has a place to go and doesn’t have to drive around in a truck all day.”
Lin Xiuhong listened to what Li Guohong said and took advantage of it. Nodding in agreement: "Then if you two say that, I will find an opportunity to mention it to him."
"Mom, you can suggest it, but don't say anything about finding a partner." Li Luo reminded with a smile, "Once he hears this, he will probably refuse to go."
"Then What should I say?”
“Just mention it casually and let him be mentally prepared. I’ll talk to him about it next time,” Li Luo said.
"That's okay." Lin Xiuhong smiled and patted Li Luo on the shoulder, "I'll leave it to you to worry about your uncle's life."
"That's what I said, No guarantee." Li Luo rolled his eyes.
"Mom believes in you." Lin Xiuhong glanced at the three girls eating obediently on the table and said very firmly.
Li Luo looked at his mother and felt that she was a little too confident in herself.
"Do you have any good ideas about buying the fruit shop at the back?" Li Guohong asked again.
"Let's just leave this for now." Li Luo thought about it, and then said, "After all, they also said that they would not give a reply until the end of the month. When they actually bought it, they were all heading for the summer vacation. It's really Let’s wait until then to decide what to do.” “That’s right.” Li Guohong nodded.
After lunch, Lin Xiuhong went into the kitchen to wash dishes.
Because it was Yan Zhusheng's turn to wash the dishes today, Yan Zhusheng stopped Ying Chanxi who wanted to show her courtesy, and pointed at the rules of the shared tenancy on the sliding door very seriously, saying that she would wash the dishes today. Let Xixi go to the living room to rest.
Then Yan Zhusheng walked straight into the kitchen, closed the sliding door of the kitchen, walked to Lin Xiuhong, and washed the dishes with her obediently.
In the afternoon, other members of the seven-person study group also arrived one after another.
Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong were filled with joy when they saw their seven children sitting around the desk, reading and studying seriously.
"Li Luo has really grown up." Lin Xiuhong stood at the other end of the corridor, talking quietly for fear of disturbing them, "This dazzling moment is less than a year, right? It feels like a dream."
"Yes." Li Guohong couldn't help but sigh, "Who would have thought that this kid suddenly seemed to have an idea? Before the high school entrance examination, you said that Li Luo could make money in less than a year. Who would believe it?"
"We are going to enjoy it now, right?" Lin Xiuhong covered her mouth and said with a smile, "What Li Luo said before, it's our breakfast shop. "Bian, do you want to keep going?"
"What the hell!" Li Guohong rolled his eyes, "Working from dawn to dusk for a month is not as much as this guy can earn in two days, so what's the point? You did it.”
“That’s not what you said before.” Lin Xiuhong said, holding back a smile.
"Can it be the same? Weren't we worried about how long it would take him to write this book before?" Li Guohong smacked his lips. When he thought that in April, Li Luo showed them the royalties again, which amounted to more than half a million yuan, he felt a little bit Not the taste.
This money is so profitable.
He was a little numb looking at it.
But even under such circumstances, Li Guohong still tried to stay rational and said in a low voice: "In short, Li Luo is indeed very good now, but after the store house thing comes to an end this time, we will I have to tell him not to think about other investments.”
“Four storefronts, plus this house in Bihailanting, is really enough.”
"If the subway is really opened over there, the housing prices around here will at least double. Think about how much it will cost?"
"The total area of four stores must be less than 300 square meters. Right? The total price is more than 4 million. "
"If it doubles, it will be more than 8 million. If the increase is greater, this will be an asset of tens of millions. "
"Li Luo is still making money after this book. According to him, he can write it for at least two or three years. How much will it cost?"
"It is said that it is easier to conquer a country than to defend it. , the most important thing for us now is not to invest in real estate, but to pay attention to Li Luo.”
"What should you pay attention to?" Lin Xiuhong asked curiously.
“Be careful not to let him get carried away.” Li Guohong reminded in a low voice, “Once this person gets rich, he will easily become bad. We must also be careful and don’t let this kid cause any trouble. Come on."
"What's wrong with this? You've been going to school every day." Lin Xiuhong was confused when she heard what he said.
"You really can't understand people's words, right?" Li Guohong looked helpless, then he pursed his lips and gestured towards the desk over there, "Look at the stream, the bamboo sheng, Youyu, there are three girls hanging around every day.”
“There are two girls nearby who are also pretty.”
“The school doesn’t know about it yet. How many little girls are fascinated by him?”
“He has money in his pocket, is handsome, can play guitar and sing, can write songs and novels, and is the class monitor. Studying is okay..."
"Hey..." Lin Xiuhong came to her senses when she heard what he said, "Don't tell me that I haven't turned around yet... This kid Is it so good now? "
The main reason is that Li Luo spends most of his time in school and doesn't actually spend much time with his parents.
Although Lin Xiuhong has been shocked by Li Luo's income and personal changes these days, part of her impression of her son still remains the same young boy he was a year ago.
When Li Guohong said this, Lin Xiuhong immediately realized that his son was really a bit too good now.
No wonder so many girls are willing to hang around him.
"Then what do you mean by that?" Lin Xiuhong asked in a low voice, "Xixi and the others are good friends, right? What if they don't actually have that intention? We can't say anything."
< br>"Ahem...that's what I said." Li Guohong coughed and said, "It seems that he is quite honest now. He is just taking precautions before they happen. It is better to pay more attention to him."
"I "I thought you were going to say something." Lin Xiuhong rolled her eyes at him, "They are still young, and they must still focus on studying. Xixi and the others are sensible children, and they will not be ignorant."
The couple whispered for a while, not intending to disturb their studies anymore. When it was past one in the afternoon, they said goodbye and prepared to leave Bihailanting.
Before leaving, Lin Xiuhong did not forget to ask: "Youyu, next week's parent-teacher meeting, will your father or your mother come to attend?"
"Yes. My father is here to participate." Xu Youyu responded, "Auntie, my mother said that she would come with you and help with the cooking."
"Okay." Lin Xiuhong nodded with a smile, "I have added you before. I’ve got my mother’s phone number. I’ll contact her directly when the time comes.”
“No problem.” Xu Youyu made an OK gesture, “I’ll tell her later.”
...
After seeing off Li Guohong and his wife, the seven-person study group continued to immerse themselves in learning.
Especially Xu Yinghuan, she is very motivated to study now.
Because she has been studying with Li Luo and the others recently, she felt that the midterm exams in the past few days were much easier.
It is estimated that the results will increase a lot this time.
The result of the final exam was just as she felt.
Wait until after the May Day holiday, when the time comes to the day before the parent-teacher meeting.
The latest individual performance rankings for the midterm exam are posted on the school’s bulletin board.
When Xu Yinghuan saw her score of 357th in the school, she immediately hugged Yan Zhusheng beside her and cheered excitedly.
"Did you see the bamboo sheng! 357! It's more than a hundred places higher than my ranking in the school entrance examination!"
"Yes, I saw it." Yan Zhusheng nodded, "Congratulations."
Li Luo on the other side stood in front of the bulletin board, found Yan Zhusheng's name, then raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You passed the exam this time 156th place, there is improvement, you are in the top 160."
"Wow! Zhusheng, you are so awesome," Xu Yinghuan couldn't help but say.
“You did well in the physics test this time.” Li Luo took a look at Yan Zhusheng’s specific scores in each subject.
Among the six minor subjects, geography is still Yan Zhusheng’s strong point. With a perfect score of 100 and a score of 95, she ranks in the top 30 in the school in a single subject.
Physics also performed well this time, actually slightly better than chemistry and biology. Other than that, history, which is similar to chemistry and biology. As for politics, it is indeed Yan Zhusheng's weakness.
“It’s all taught well by Teacher Li.” Yan Zhusheng responded seriously.
"Teacher Li?" Xu Yinghuan on the side was confused, "Isn't Mr. Li teaching mathematics? The physics teacher's surname is not Li."
Yan Zhusheng glanced at her and commented: "Huanhuan is stupid."
After Yan Zhusheng said this, Xu Yinghuan reacted. Then she looked at Li Luo and was speechless: "You are not talking about this Teacher Li, are you? You two really know how to do it. Play.”
"Mr. Li's teaching level is very high." Yan Zhusheng said seriously, "Didn't you make progress this time?"
"I basically asked Xixi and Xinyan." Xu Ying turned over happily. He rolled his eyes and said, "If you want to praise me, praise them both."
"Yes." Yan Zhusheng nodded and said with great satisfaction, "Teacher Li only teaches me."
"Oh~ "Xu Yinghuan rubbed her arms and felt goosebumps coming out. "Look at how many places your teacher Li got in the exam. I can't stand you two anymore."
"No. 16 in the school. "Yan Zhusheng pointed to the front column of the bulletin board and easily found Li Luo's name.
“It’s just so-so.” Li Luo put his hands in his pockets and smiled nonchalantly, “Still not in the top ten.”
It can only be said that the top academics in front of them are the real perverts. ...He cheated and still couldn't beat him.
Although this is related to the fact that he did not put all his energy into studying, it also shows the talent and hard work of these top students.
"It's just so so-so~" Xu Yinghuan imitated Li Luo's tone, gritted her teeth and said, "Damn it, it's so easy to say! I have already tried my best to get more than 300 places in the exam!"< br>
"Yes." Qiao Xinyan also went downstairs to look at the rankings at this time. She glanced at her 18th ranking and couldn't help but sigh, "She was surpassed by Li Luo again."
"Where is Xixi?" Li Luo turned around and saw Qiao Xinyan coming down alone, and asked in confusion.
"I was called to the office by Teacher Sun. It seems that if you have anything to do, please come to her." As Qiao Xinyan said this, she saw that Yingchan River had come down at the top of the stairs, "Well, I won't come here. Are you ready?"
Li Luo followed her line of sight and saw Ying Chanxi walking over with a calm look on her face, looking a little unhappy.
"What's wrong?" Li Luo touched her head and asked doubtfully, "Why is Teacher Sun looking for you?"
"He wants me to change my choice for the college entrance examination." Ying Chan Xi said helplessly, "I told him before that I didn't want to go to Tsinghua University and Peking University. I just wanted to go to Qianjiang University. But today, even the principal was invited."
"Are you okay?" Li Luo He asked with a frown.
“They thought I chose Qianjiang University because of you.” Ying Chanxi pursed his lips, “I asked them to call my dad. Anyway, I will definitely choose Qianjiang University. "
Hearing the first half of the sentence, Li Luo was a little bit dumbfounded. After hearing the last part, Li Luo fell silent again and patted her on the shoulder: "It's okay, I believe the principal and others can understand."< br>
After all, that was the alma mater where Ying Chanxi’s late mother had studied.
Yingchan Creek had already been identified there as early as when my mother passed away.
This matter really has nothing to do with Li Luo, it just happens that Li Luo is now capable of being admitted to Qianjiang University.
After all, Li Luo remembered very clearly that in his previous life, even though he and Ying Chanxi parted ways before the high school entrance examination, Ying Chanxi still went to Qianjiang University in the end.
This will not change due to the influence of his rebirth.
"We have agreed to go to Qianjiang University to continue studying together." Li Luo pinched her cheek and said with a smile, "Don't think so much about other things. Our grade 1."
"I know, don't pinch my face." Ying Chanxi pushed his chest and whispered, "There are still people around."
