Chapter 77 Pride Hu Xuehui 2

On the first day of winter vacation, Ji Feng woke up early to help his mother ride the tricycle to the vegetable market. After handing out some of the common dishes, Ji Feng and his mother arrived at the market.

Because the stalls in the market had to pay a fixed management fee and some taxes every year, a stall that was about two meters wide costed at least a thousand yuan a year. For Ji Feng's family, this amount of money was definitely not a small amount.

In order to save money, Ji Feng's mother, Xiao Sumei, had no choice but to set up stalls and sell vegetables on the street outside the market. Furthermore, since there were no booths, she could only open the back door of the tricycle and use it as a booth.

As a result, once the weather was bad, they could only hold umbrellas and sell vegetables at the same time. Because the car wasn't big, the fixed umbrellas couldn't be fixed and couldn't be used.

Just imagine, if it was winter, the cold wind would be like a knife, but there was nothing to cover them.

Every time he thought of this, Ji Feng's heart would ache uncontrollably.

After braking the car and fixing it at the side of the street, Ji Feng rushed to arrange the dishes so that when a pa.s.serby pa.s.sed by, they would be able to clearly see what kind of dishes were there.

Looking at her son's busy figure, Xiao Sumei smiled with gratification. Her son was filial and filial. Furthermore, he already knew how much she felt for her. She was extremely happy in her heart.

After he was done with all the work, Ji Feng took out two more small stools from the front of the car and said with a smile, "Mom, you can sit down. I'll be selling vegetables today. You just watch from the side."

Xiao Sumei couldn't help but laugh, "Forget it, I'll just make you sell your vegetables. "Feng'er, watch from the side. If Mom is too busy, just give me a hand."

Ji Feng could only bitterly smile and nod his head. It seemed that his mother still didn't believe him.

Because he came too early, there weren't many people on the street, so Ji Feng accompanied his mother and chatted.

When it came to Ji Feng's studies, Ji Feng could not help but smile and said: "Mom, don't worry. I promise you that you will come back from a famous university. If it isn't in Yan Jing, then it's in Jiang Prefecture."

When Xiao Sumei heard the two words' Yan Jing ', her heart immediately beat violently. An unnatural expression flashed across her eyes. She subconsciously combed her hair and it seemed very unnatural.

"Good, good. It would be best if it was a school in Jiang Prefecture. That would be a big city with an international scope. If you study there, you will naturally gain experience as well!" Xiao Sumei forced a smile.

He frowned, thinking that his mother was worried about where the tuition fees for the university would come from, so he couldn't help but laugh: "Mom, let me tell you a piece of good news. It is said that from this year onwards, our school will have some kind of public funds specially prepared for children who can't afford to attend school. "Also, now that I'm in university, I can apply for a student loan. I don't need to spend any money when I'm in university, I just need to work after graduation and then pay the money back!"

"That's good, that's good!" Xiao Sumei nodded her head repeatedly.

Ji Feng chuckled and went to place the vegetables down. As the weather was cold, a layer of white ice formed on the vegetables within a short period of time. Ji Feng had to flip through the vegetables from time to time.

Seeing her son's attentive look, a complicated look flashed across Xiao Sumei's eyes. She sighed in her heart, "Silly boy, what kind of public fund is that? How could someone like us, who don't have any background, obtain it? Haven't you seen that all the so-called public housing in the county is occupied by the relatives of the big leaders? For people like us who have no background, no money, and no money, we wouldn't be able to get any benefits from it. "

"Great sir, you woke up so early to train?" Look at how fresh the celery is. Ji Feng smiled as he beckoned for the people by the side of the road. If anyone who didn't know of his name were to see him, they would definitely think that he was acquainted with this old man. At the very least, they would think that he was his neighbor. But in reality, he was just a stranger. Ji Feng only wanted to sell everything as soon as possible, so he didn't want his mother to continue suffering in this biting cold.

The old man had already walked over, but after hearing Ji Feng's shout, he couldn't help but retreat. He said with a smile, "Young man, you're so hardworking. Help your mother sell vegetables!"

Ji Feng nodded with a smile, "This grandpa has good eyes. I can't hide anything from you. However, you are in an even better condition. It's rare for you to wake up so early in such a cold weather." Hehe, how about a catty of celery? Look, this spinach is pretty good too! "

"Good!" "Alright!" Ji Feng's words made the old man smile. With his lifetime of experience, how could he not see that this young man in front of him was handsome, with clear eyes and a sweet mouth. The most important thing was that he was able to put down his pride.

The old man couldn't help but shake his head when he thought about his unworthy grandson. If grandson was half as outstanding as this young man in front of him, then he could stop worrying about him.

"Five catties of spinach, two catties of celery!" The old man said, "Since it's the new year soon, we can eat these dishes for a while, and we can also make dumplings with celery."

Ji Feng had a bright smile on his face. Since his mother couldn't speak, he skillfully took out a casual bag and loaded the dishes onto the electronic scale. His weight was exactly the same as what the old man said.

"Young man, are you so amazing?" The old man said in surprise.

Ji Feng smiled faintly as he pa.s.sed the dish to the old man, "This is nothing much, I'm just proficient in it, haha."

"Young man, not bad, not bad at all!" After the old man paid, he didn't even bargain like the customers in the past. Instead, he praised the old man and left with a smile.

"What do you think, Mom?" Ji Feng asked with a smile.

Xiao Sumei couldn't help but feel absent-minded. After a while, she said in a gratified tone, "Feng'er, you've grown up!"

Ji Feng laughed, "Mom, I've already grown up. How about this, I will take your place during the winter vacation. You just stay at home and rest for a while, just treat it as giving me a chance to fulfill my filial duty, okay?"

"You child!" Xiao Sumei could not help but laugh, "Mom is not someone who is old and can't move, and she's being filial? "It's better if Mom comes. There are a lot of regular customers that come here to buy groceries. You don't know them!"

Ji Feng nodded with a smile on his face. In reality, when it came to selling vegetables, he still didn't have any experience as a mother.

Looking at her son's tall and straight body, Xiao Sumei couldn't help but clench her teeth: "No matter what, I must let Feng Er go to university. But I can't go to Beijing, it would be best if we go to Jiang Prefecture. If I really don't have any money, I'll just throw away my face, go find that heartless man, and let Feng'Er go to university! "
