Chapter 121 learning awards
Li Haitang was escorted back to the shop by the two brothers. It was already time for work. Everyone was drinking and resting in the shop. She went over to say hello to everyone. She didn't see Li Jianguo around and asked, "Third uncle, where's my father?"
"Haitang, didn't you let him learn how to drive? He has been studying every morning for a while now. There seems to be an exam today. He has been away for an afternoon and hasn't come back yet." Li Jianhua brought her a bottle of iced soda from the small refrigerator.
Li Haitang took it and asked, "Are you with brother yao?"
"Yes."
Li Haitang patted Li Tao on the shoulder. "Li Tao, go next door to meifang's sister-in-law and ask. See if brother yao is back?"
"Okay." Li Tao took a long step and disappeared at the door in the blink of an eye.
She smiled and looked at Li Yang, who was standing next to her. The thirteen-year-old boy also grew a lot taller and looked more and more like his third uncle. She asked him, "Li Yang, did you take the notice? How was your exam this time?"
Li Yang touched the back of his head shyly and grinned, "It was average. Fourth place in the class."
"Oh, not bad. It's much better than before. Work harder and get into the County one middle school." He was more sensible among the children of the li family. Even though he was naughty when he was a child, he had a sense of propriety.
Li Yang smiled and said, "That's what I think in my heart. Try your best."
"How did Li Tao do this time?"
"Brother tao has made great progress. He came first in the class and third in the grade this time." Li Yang had been influenced by Li Tao for the past two years, and it was with his help that he learned and improved.
This result is really good, much better than last semester, it seems that he really worked hard this semester.
Li Tao happened to run back from the next room. As soon as she entered the room, she told her in a thick voice, "Sister hoi tong, Brother yao hasn't come back yet. He called earlier and said that he and dad won't be back until 6: 30."
"Yes." Li Haitang nodded and asked, "Li Tao, I heard you got first place in the exam. What reward do you want this time?"
Li Tao took a chair and sat down. He smiled and said, "I want a pair of those sneakers you bought for me last year in Hushi before chinese new year."
"Okay, I'll bring you a pair when I go to Hushi." Li Haitang glanced at his feet and raised an eyebrow, "Isn't that a bit out of place?"
"Yes, it doesn't fit. It won't fit in. That pair of shoes was actually only a little worn, and now it's for Li Yang." He liked those shoes, but they had grown in the past six months, and his feet had grown too long to fit in.
Li Haitang nodded and looked at Li Yang, "Li Yang, I'll give you a reward too. What do you want?"
Li Yang looked surprised, "Me too?"
"Yes, I do. What do you want?"
Li Yang touched his head for a long time and finally said, "I want an electronic watch."
"It's simple. There's a department store across the street. There's an electronic watch for sale. We'll buy it later in the evening." Li Haitang waved his head and said to duan jinqiao, "Jinqiao, your grades have always been good. I will buy you a gift as a reward later. You can choose it yourself."
"Okay, thank you sister haitang." The little girl jumped up happily.
"You guys, haitang is the only one who spoils you. She gives you presents every year. Every time she comes in first place in the grade, she doesn't even want to be rewarded." Sister liu smiled lovingly.
Li Tao chuckled, "She doesn't lack anything. She probably doesn't like gifts. We don't know what to give."
Li Haitang took a sip of the soda and smiled until his eyes curved, "No matter what you give me, I will like it. I promise to give it to you as a treasure."
The corners of Li Tao's mouth were back to his ears, and he was thinking about it in his mind. He has money now, so he should buy her a present later.
Just as she was about to close the door, Li Haitang suddenly remembered that she had to call the Lin family. She walked over and dialed the phone. It was Lin Peipei who answered the phone, "Pepe, I heard jinqiao talk about your family. How is it now?"
Lin Peipei's voice on the other end of the phone was very cheerful, indicating that he was in a good mood. Later, the big group went to my grandmother's. My grandparents didn't give her a good look and scolded her for raising a harmful spirit.
My grandmother's life hasn't been very good for the past six months. My parents have already given her enough money to stop supporting her. My uncle Auntie only goes back once a year and gives her some money during the new year. Eldest aunt and second aunt at home are stingy and mean, which is not good for her at all. She probably regretted letting my grandmother scold her. My grandmother thought it was boring to scold her for a long time, so she came back with her uncles. Now my mother is cooking a big meal for them. "
Li Haitang chuckled. He should have done it a long time ago. He chuckled and said, "Okay, it's fine. Then you go help auntie. I'll hang up."
"Okay, bye." Lin Peipei smiled and hung up.
After closing the store door, the large group returned to the dormitory not far away. Guichunshenzi had already made two big tables of food waiting, but before Li Jianguo came back, everyone had not eaten for the time being. The first one took a bath, while the others were watching tv and blowing fans in the room.
"Li Tao, what are your brothers going to do this summer? Do you work in the store for the summer vacation, or do you have other ideas?" Li Haitang put the luggage into Sister liu's room temporarily and came out to sit and chat with them.
Li Tao grinned, "Hey, Sister hoi tong, I'm telling you, there are enough adults working in the store. I'm going to take Li Yang to sell newspapers or popsicles for money."
Li Haitang was stunned and reminded, "You can do this too. It's just that it's very hot in the summer and it's easy to get sunstroke."
"We're not going to sell it on the street. We're going to the train station or the bus station waiting room." The last time I took a train with her to Yangcheng, I still remember that there were a lot of passengers waiting in the waiting room. It was winter, and only some of them sold melon seeds and peanuts. Now it's summer, and ice drinks are just right.
Li Haitang tapped on his thin shoulder and praised, "Sure, that's a good idea. We are very close to the train station. It's only ten minutes by bike. The road is very flat. There is a small popsicle factory in front of us. There is a big post office near the train station."
With her support, the brothers' enthusiasm immediately rose. Duan Jinqiao joined in, "Li Tao, I'll go with you."
"Okay." She used to help sell things in the store. She was experienced and it was good to take her with her. Naturally, Li Tao agreed immediately.
Li Haitang smiled and warned them, "The train station is full of people. The three of you should be careful and be careful. You have to be smart when something happens. If you can't handle it properly, call the police directly, okay?"
"Yes, I know."
When Li Jianguo came back, Li Tao told the adults about it during dinner. Li Haitang agreed, Li Jianguo and Li Jianhua naturally agreed, and Liu Fen agreed, just a few more words.
After dinner, Li Haitang took the three little turnips to the nearby department store and bought an electronic watch for Li Yang. Duan Jinqiao picked up a small alarm clock. Li Tao took her pocket money and bought Li Haitang a blue notebook as a gift. She smiled happily and accepted his gift.
The next day, as the weather forecast said, there was a strong wind and heavy rain in the morning. Except for Li Jianguo, who went to school in a raincoat, the others were watching tv and playing in the shop.
Around ten o' clock, the phone in the shop rang. Sister liu answered the call and shouted to Li Haitang, who was playing checkers with Li Tao and the others. "Haitang, your call."
Li Haitang quickly played a chess piece, got up, walked over to the microphone and said, "Hello, who is it?"
"Haitang, it's me." A deep, magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Ha, chu heng, are you back?" Li Haitang smiled with joy. When they met a month ago, they heard that they were going to train for a month and would not be back until two days before the summer vacation.
Jiang Chuheng's voice was filled with laughter, "Yes, I went back to school last night. What did you come here for?"
"I arrived yesterday afternoon, too. Have you bought the train ticket? When are we leaving?"
"I've already asked someone to buy it. I'll pick you up at your store the day after tomorrow at 10 am." Jiang Chuheng's school wouldn't have a holiday until tomorrow afternoon. He didn't want to rush, so he postponed it for a day.
"Sure. Write down the address and number of my store."
After jiang chuheng remembered, he hung up after chatting for a while because he had something to do at school.
During lunch, the rain outside did not abate at all, and the workers were worried about the harvest in the fields at home. After all, it was the season of double grabbing in a few days, and the harvest of the rice in the fields was about to decrease after the heavy rain.
"Uncle and Uncle, if any of your families have more land and less labor, you can adjust your holidays and go back to help out for a few days." Li Haitang could understand how farmers felt about their land. This year's harvest, apart from the public grain, was enough for the whole family to eat and drink for a year, and there was not much left.
"Okay." A few of them were indeed worried about their fields. Now that she had offered, they naturally wanted to go back.
"Everyone go back at a slightly different time. Don't leave on the same day. The shops here won't be able to run at that time." Li Haitang reminded him.
Everyone thought of this and nodded in unison, "Okay."
Fortunately, the weather forecast was not particularly accurate, and the next day it turned into a drizzly day. The drizzle did not affect everyone's work, and with four more students who were able to do their work quickly, everyone finished the day's work early.
After finishing the work in the shop, Li Haitang returned to the dormitory early. She bought a bamboo bed and put it in Sister liu's mother and daughter's room to sleep together. She took a shower early, packed her luggage, put her laptop in Li Jianguo's father and son's room and locked it up. She told Li Tao to take care of it.
Li Tao took this important job seriously and closed the door to get the key whenever he went in and out of the room.
