Chapter 2300: Publish a Book
Seeing that the situation was about to turn awkward, the matchmaker quickly said, "Oh my! The girl is shy! Moreover, it's indeed a little urgent for her to get married within the week. Let's slowly get to know each other! Today, let them know each other better by having a meal together!"
"Alright, then we'll listen to the matchmaker!" Wang Kun said unhappily.
The Wang siblings put on a good show and entertained Xu Chun until she left. By now, Qiao Mei and the others had finished their meal and were preparing to go home to pack their luggage and go to the manor.
"Pfft! Who does she think she is! How dare she put on airs in front of us! At her age, she should have gotten married long ago!" Wang Tian pointed at the departed bus and cursed.
"Just bear with it. After all, the Xu family knows the Xia family. If you can get that man within a month, our family won't have to be related to the Xu family by marriage. I find that woman disgusting too! Can you choose more carefully next time? I can't just get married to anyone," Wang Kun said disdainfully.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Look at yourself in the mirror! Where am I supposed to find a beautiful woman for you! It's our mother who should be in charge of this matter! As your younger sister, I still have to worry about your marriage!" Wang Tian complained.
The Wang siblings left, grumbling to each other. Qiao Mei, Xia He and the others stood at the same spot and felt very emotional. They did not expect the Wang siblings to be so different when they were on their own.
"Xu Chun... is really quite pitiful..." Xia He said.
"There's nothing we can do about it. She chose this route herself, or maybe the Xu family forced her to do this. There's nothing we can do," Qiao Mei said coldly.
"You know my phone number. If there's anything you need, just let me know. If I'm not in the capital, just call my friend and she'll settle it for you," Qiao Mei said. The friend whom Qiao Mei was referring to was Qian'e. After all, Qian'e could be considered half a member of the Qiao family now.
"Sigh... I really have something to ask you, but I'm too embarrassed to say it," Tang Hui said. "We're all family. If you have something to say, just say it," Qiao Mei said.
"Your third uncle and I don't earn much and we still owe a lot of money. Moreover, your third uncle is already old and won't be able to work for long. I want to find a way to earn more money," Tang Hui said.
Qiao Mei smiled in satisfaction. She had not been wrong about this person back then. If it was Zhou Hua, she would only want to curry favor and get benefits from Qiao Mei and would never think about being self-sufficient.
"Actually, there is," Qiao Mei said.
Xia He stared at Qiao Mei in panic. Could it be that Qiao Mei wanted to hand over the business idea from yesterday to Tang Hui!
"Have you ever published a book?" Qiao Mei asked.
Xia He felt relieved to hear that. Tang Hui thought for a while and said, "No, but I often set practice questions for the kids in my class."
"How about this! Write down all the practice questions and classify them according to grade. I'll get someone to help you with the binding and printing and we can use my results from the college entrance examination as an advertising gimmick. Let's sell practice workbooks!" Qiao Mei said excitedly.
Currently, the students could only learn from questions set by their homeroom teachers. There were different versions in different schools. Some schools had better teachers and the children would learn more. However, some schools were not as good, so the difference in standards was quite big. Since all the students eventually had to sit for the same college entrance examination, this meant that the students were competing on uneven footing. "Sure! This is a very good idea! I'll go and organize all my previous test papers now!" Tang Hui said.
