Chapter 114 Investing in Xie Jiagui’s Restaurant

Pei Tiantian stopped teasing Gu Rong when she saw Ma Xiangdong walking into the classroom.

After Tao Jing came back from a trip to No. 1 Middle School, she helped Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong make an agreement with No. 1 Middle School, while Wang Ying decided to go to No. 3 Middle School.

Pei Tiantian told the Pei family that she would be directly admitted to No. 1 Middle School next semester.

The Pei family were all very happy. No. 1 Middle School was the best middle school in the city. Who wouldn’t want their children to go to No. 1 Middle School to study? If they went to No. 1 Middle School, they would be mostly college students.

College students are so popular nowadays.

Soon people in Huangsha Village learned about this one after another. They also learned that not only would Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong not receive tuition fees when they went to No. 1 Middle School, but the No. 1 Middle School would even pay them living expenses. This was a lot of trouble. People's eyes are red with envy, and they teach their children about this as soon as they get home.

“Look at that girl from the Pei family, she used to be stupid and lazy, but now she can go to No. 1 Middle School for free, and you still don’t want me to study hard.”

“Gu Rong, a mute, has such good grades. You are so healthy that you can’t beat him?”

“Pei Tiantian can skip a grade, why can’t you? After all, you still haven’t studied hard!”

Pei Tiantian was convinced after overhearing these words.

These people just use her and Gu Rong as examples, and they also want to step on them.

Pei Tiantian chuckled in her heart, knowing that these people were just jealous and jealous of them.

After all, there are only three people in the village who were admitted to the No. 1 middle school.

Gu Rong and Pei Tiantian are two of them, and the other one is Xue Ningxiang’s biological brother Xue Jingjie.

However, Xue Ningxiang and Gu Yang in the novel later also studied in No. 1 Middle School. They won the first prize in the China Cup, so they chose to be promoted directly to No. 1 Middle School.

Xue Ningxiang originally preferred No. 3 Middle School because the teachers in No. 3 Middle School were better in liberal arts, but because Gu Yang chose No. 1 Middle School, Xue Ningxiang went with him.

 But now that Gu Yang has gone to nowhere, will Xue Ningxiang simply not choose No. 1 again like in the plot?

Because of Xue Ningxiang’s magical koi physique, Pei Tiantian really didn’t want to go to the same school as her, for fear that he would be unlucky if he met her.

Thinking of this, Pei Tiantian couldn't sit still. She ran to the office during get out of class and asked Ma Xiangdong for the specific list of winners of the China Cup finals.

Ma Xiangdong quickly got her a specific list, which included the names of the first, second and third prize winners.

Pei Tiantian brought the list back to the classroom, placed it on the table and browsed it carefully.

Then, a question mark slowly popped up in her mind.

Strange, why is there no Xue Ningxiang’s name on the first prize list?

While Pei Tiantian was confused, she continued to look at the back of the list. There was no second prize, and there was no third prize.

Pei Tiantian was stunned for a moment.

Xue Ningxiang is not on this list of winners at all, which is too outrageous.

Is it possible that the heroine didn’t even make it to the finals?

This is unlikely.

Pei Tiantian was puzzled and murmured unconsciously: "Where did Xue Ningxiang go?"

What exactly happened?

Suddenly Pei Tiantian felt something touch her elbow. She turned around and saw that it was the notebook where Gu Rong usually wrote.

“Xue Ningxiang and I were in the same examination room, and she was the only student absent from our examination room that day.”

Pei Tiantian glanced at this line of writing, then at Gu Rong, and then suddenly realized.

It turns out that Xue Ningxiang entered the finals, but she didn’t take the exam for some unknown reason, so she didn’t win the award.

Pei Tiantian’s hanging heart finally calmed down.

Without Gu Yang, there is no chance of being directly promoted to No. 1 Middle School.

From this point of view, Xue Ningxiang is probably going to follow her own will and take the No. 3 High School exam.

Then he wouldn’t go to the same middle school as her and Gu Rong.

Pei Tiantian smiled easily and said, "I know, thank you, Brother Gu Rong."

Gu Rong took back his notebook with a calm expression, as if he was not curious why Pei Tiantian suddenly cared so much about Xue Ningxiang.

After school, Pei Tiantian returned home. Pei Zhiwen gave her an envelope. Pei Tiantian looked at the sender and found that it was Bao Baobai's letter again.

Pei Tiantian pinched the envelope with her little fleshy hands and felt that the letter was quite thick.

I don't know how many paintings were drawn this time. Pei Tiantian opened the envelope a little bit, and was suddenly blinded by a whole torrent of blue four people in it.

Pei Tiantian took out all the money, counted it for a while, and found that it was exactly 4,800 yuan, which was the cost of licensing her comics.

Pei Tiantian sighed a little.

They didn't even sign the contract, but now they sent her money, which shows how much Bao Baobai believes in her.

Pei Tiantian knew that as Bao Baobai, he could afford even 48,000 yuan, not to mention 4,800 yuan.

So Pei Tiantian stopped thinking so much and took the money back to her house.

He took out a tin box from the closet and opened the lid, revealing all the money stored inside.

Some of it is Pei Tiantian’s royalties for publishing novels, which is 20 yuan per thousand words. Currently, she has received more than 3,000 yuan.

There is money from selling vegetables in Xie Jiagui's restaurant, which is about a thousand yuan, plus some miscellaneous pocket money given by the Pei family on weekdays, the total adds up to less than 10,000 yuan.

Pei Tiantian put the 4,800 yuan in her hand into the tin box, then closed it and put it back in the closet.

She needs to save the money carefully. Even the Pei family still doesn’t know how much money she has saved~

Pei Tiantian needs to save more money so that she can take it out when she is in urgent need, so that the money can be put to good use.

Pei Tiantian thought happily, looking at it this way, she could be considered a household worth ten thousand yuan.

But when the saline-alkali land is demolished, the compensation will be 5 million, so this little money will be nothing.

But the demolition of the saline-alkali land happened when Xue Ningxiang was fifteen years old, which meant that it would take another five years.

Who can tell clearly what changes have occurred in the past five years?

And many things have already gone off the track of plot development, so Pei Tiantian cannot guarantee whether the salt-alkali land she finally obtained before will still be able to play its due role in the future.

Pei Tiantian returned to the main room to eat with her family, and suddenly heard Wang Ruizhen asking Pei Zhiwen and Pei Zhiqiang if they had found any trace of Li Zhaodi.

Pei Tiantian’s ears immediately stood up.

Pei Tiantian knows that Wang Ruizhen is kind-hearted. Although Li Zhaodi has a bad personality and loves to act like a monster, she is Wang Ruizhen's granddaughter after all.

It is impossible for Wang Ruizhen not to care about her life or death.

Pei Tiantian sighed slightly in her heart.

If the Li family is found and the eldest and second uncle want to take Li Zhaodi back to live with them, no matter how unwilling she is, she cannot object.

She cannot do anything to make Wang Ruizhen sad.

Pei Zhiwen frowned: "Mom, we heard from the police two days ago that Li Jianguo's mother and Zhao Di went to hide in the hometown of Li Jianguo's brother-in-law, which is in the next city. They have not committed any crime. In fact, the police just confiscated their illegal property, and then Zhiqiang and I asked the police to ask Zhaodi if he would like to live in our Pei family. "

“What did Zhaodi say?”

Pei Zhiqiang's face was a little embarrassed, "Zhao Di said she didn't want to. This child is probably very resentful of Zhiqin. She said that Zhiqin reported on Li Jianguo and ruined their family. Not only did she not want to associate with us, she also said that Pei My family will never look for her again.”

Wang Ruizhen's eyes flashed dimly, "In this case, there is nothing more to say. It seems that we have no fate with that child."

When Pei Tiantian heard this, she puffed up her cheeks angrily.

This Li Zhaodi is really ignorant. The Pei family is also worried that her life will be difficult in the Li family, so they want to take her over.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhaodi was unwilling to contact them.

It seems that Li Zhaodi was probably brainwashed by Li Jianguo's mother, who kept telling her how bad Pei Zhiqin was and how bad the Pei family was. Otherwise, how could Li Zhaodi be so stupid and refuse their good intentions.

Who doesn’t know that the Li family favors sons over daughters, and Li Zhaodi has always been discriminated against while living there. In addition, Pei Zhiqin reported Li Jianguo’s matter, which can almost be said to be a disaster for the Li family.

Any discerning person can see how sad Li Zhaodi’s future life will be.

Why can’t Li Zhaodi figure it out?

Just because of other people's words, I put hatred on the Pei family.

Although this was exactly what Pei Tiantian wanted, and she didn't want to face Li Zhaodi day and night in the future, Li Zhaodi's inability to see the situation clearly made her speechless.

Since Li Zhaodi didn’t want to live with the Pei family, the Pei family stopped looking for the Li family.

Pei Tiantian soon accompanied Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu to spend their twelfth birthdays one after another.

Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu have also grown taller again, reaching 176 centimeters, as if they were taking hormones.

Because Gu Rong is not picky about food and eats everything, and he also exercises diligently, he grows very fast, growing by a full ten centimeters.

Pei Tiantian, however, has only grown four centimeters. Looking at the height recorded on the door frame, everyone has grown a lot, and only Pei Tiantian has grown the slowest.

Pei Tiantian almost fainted from tears at the door of her home.

Everyone in the Pei family is so tall, even Wang Ruizhen is 175. She can't be the only one who holds back everyone's height.

No, no, she can't go on like this. Pei Tiantian clenched her fists.

From now on, she must drink a glass of milk from the space every day and go out to bask in the sun more often to exercise.

She can definitely grow taller!

Pei Tiantian thought ambitiously.

From that day on, Pei Tiantian secretly drank a glass of milk every morning, and then ate a home-boiled egg. She also forced herself not to be picky about her daily meals, including fish and shrimp with high protein content and vegetables rich in vitamins. I will eat accordingly to ensure balanced nutrition.

Wang Ruizhen was also surprised and said to others: "We Tiantian are all eating spinach now, but she couldn't eat any before."

Pei Tiantian chewed spinach in her small mouth and muttered: "Milk, it used to be before. I won't be picky about food in the future. I want to grow taller. I want to grow as tall as Milk!"

“Okay, okay, our little Tiantian will definitely be taller than me in the future.”

Taller than Wang Ruizhen, that means she is above 175.

Pei Tiantian thought about the altitude, trembled all over, and shook her head violently.

forget it.

The acceptable range for her is between 165 and 175 centimeters, and any height above that would be the height of a supermodel.

However, Pei Tiantian doesn't have the final say when it comes to height.

Pei Tiantian can only pray silently that God can hear her voice and let her have a reasonable height, then she will feel relieved.

…

Vegetables in Pei Tiantian’s space are still sold to Xie Jiagui every day.

But this time, Xie Jiagui had a sad look on his face. After giving the money in his pocket to Pei Tiantian, he nervously put several backpacks on his tricycle.

Accidentally, one of the backpacks rolled down from behind, and the vegetables in it were scattered all over the floor.

Xie Jiagui squatted on the ground to pick up vegetables in frustration.

Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong also walked over to help.

“Uncle Xie, what’s wrong with you? Is there anything that’s bothering you?”

Xie Jiagui sighed, "I'm afraid I won't be able to do business in this city for long. I may go back home in a few months."

When Pei Tiantian heard this, her heart froze and she asked, "Why?"

Xie Jiagui looked at Pei Tiantian's concerned eyes and blurted out his recent troubles: "The shops in the town have been unable to be sold. With the money on hand, I could barely rent a shop in the city. I rented it for a year. I want to I don’t even have money to renovate the store. People in the city are very particular. Looking at the shabby condition of our store, no one is willing to come in to eat. Therefore, the business in the store is also very bad and we are losing money every day. So I could only borrow money from others, but I couldn't pay it back for a while, so I paid off the debt and caused so much trouble for myself. Tiantian, to be honest, I really don't know how to support myself. Was I too impulsive when I decided to go to the city to do business?”

After hearing what Xie Jiagui said, Pei Tiantian concluded that there was no money to make trouble.

She said: "Uncle Xie, I am also responsible for your decision to go to the city to do business. I have saved some money now and can lend it to you."

"You?" Xie Jiagui thought it was Pei Tiantian's own pocket money. He shook his head, "Tiantian, thank you for your kindness. Uncle can't ask for your child's money."

"Uncle Xie, I really have a savings in hand now, about 10,000 yuan, which can definitely solve your urgent needs."

Hearing this, Xie Jiagui was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped to the ground, "Tiantian, when did you have so much money?"

Pei Tiantian probably told Xie Jiagui about writing her novel, "Anyway, the money comes from formal channels. Uncle Xie, feel free to use it."

Xie Jiagui was a little moved, but when he thought that Tiantian, a six-year-old child, was using money, he felt a little embarrassed, "It's better... forget it."

Pei Tiantian didn't know what Xie Jiagui was thinking, and said in an anxious tone: "Uncle Xie, how long has this been? You still care about this face. I didn't lend you the money in vain. Just treat it as my investment." Is the investment successful?”
