152 Chapter 151, His Niece Can!
Ji Yuanyuan’s words stunned Li Xu.
She thought about it carefully and felt that Yuanyuan’s words made a lot of sense.
In terms of physical strength, girls were not as good as boys. If they really encountered something, they would definitely not be able to win with just their strength.
If they know some martial arts, they might have a chance of winning.
As an adult, she actually did not have as many ideas as Yuanyuan, a child.
If Yuanyuan knew some martial arts, Ji Jianguo would not be able to…
Thinking of this, she quickly said, “Yuanyuan, you are right. I will go and take a look some other day and sign you up for a cla.s.s. It is not good to trouble your Uncle Gong all the time.”
She had heard from the women who had come to buy vegetables that it was trendy for children to sign up for extracurricular cla.s.ses.
At that time, she had thought that she would enroll the three children in interest cla.s.ses such as piano and dance.
Now, she could forget about piano and dance and just enroll in a taekwondo cla.s.s.
Unexpectedly, Ji Yuanyuan shook her head, “It’s no trouble, Uncle Gong said that he had nothing to do, Grandpa Qin agreed.”
How could learning from a taekwondo teacher be better than learning from Uncle Gong?
Uncle Gong had real martial arts. What he taught was actual combat experience.
Li Xu listened to Ji Yuanyuan’s words and said thoughtfully, “That’s fine, I’ll Visit Your Grandpa Qin another day. I can’t let him teach you for free.”
As they were talking, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang came out. The two of them had already showered, but their hair was still wet.
Li Xu instructed, “Dry your hair and quickly go to your room to do your homework.”
“Got it, Mom!” The two brothers said at the same time.
Only then did Li Xu bring Ji Yuanyuan to the bathroom to take a shower. After taking a shower, she took a hair dryer to dry Ji Yuanyuan’s hair before bringing her into the shop.
The mother and daughter acted like thieves as they took advantage of the darkness to store all the eggplants in the shop in their s.p.a.ce.
After doing all this, Li Xu was completely relieved.
A few days after collecting this batch of eggplants, Li Xu called a car and went back to pick up the eggplants two more times.
Even if all the eggplants in the field were collected, the cuc.u.mbers would still have to wait for more than ten days!
Taking advantage of this gap, Li Lei and Li Yong covered all the fields with the films.
Li Xu also took out the money and planned to give it to Li Zhiming and Liu Guihua.
Two Mu of land, a total of 13,543 catties of eggplant. According to the calculation of 40 cents per catty, it was a total of 5,417 Yuan!
With so much money, Li Zhiming and Liu Guihua were also worried about leaving the cash at home. Coincidentally, there was little work in the land these few days, so they let Li Lei and Li Yong go to the county. They planned to directly deposit the money into the bank after taking the money.
The two brothers woke up early and arrived at Li Xu’s house before seven o’clock.
Li Xu had always woken up early, so she had already prepared the money. She took out a red bag from the bedroom, “The money is all here. You two go and deposit it after breakfast, don’t lose it!”
Five thousand Yuan, a thick stack.
This was the first time Li Yong had received so much money. He couldn’t help but reach out and touch the money.
As he touched it, his eyes felt a little sore.
“Oh right, Sister, it’s Sat.u.r.day, right?” Li Yong suddenly asked.
When Li Xu heard Li Yong’s words, her face instantly darkened.
Li Yong was a little embarra.s.sed, “Don’t worry, I’ll send the children over and then come back.”
He did not have any other intentions. He just wanted to be closer to her. Even if he could not see her, it would not be a problem.
Li Xu could not help but sigh deeply when she saw Li Yong’s expression.
“Alright, the two of you can rest for a while, I’ll go to the shop first.” Li Xu packed her things.
Seeing that Li Xu did not object, Li Yong immediately said in a fawning manner, “Got it, Sis. I’ll cook for you later and send it over.”
Li Xu glanced at him before leaving.
Not long after Li Xu left, Ji Yuanyuan woke up.
“Why are you awake so early?” Li Lei saw that she was standing at the bedroom door with her sleepy eyes. He went forward and carried her up, “Your Second Uncle is cooking now, you can eat later.”
Ji Yuanyuan rubbed his eyes, “Where’s my Mother?”
The meat bones in the s.p.a.ce were already gone. Didn’t they say that they would go to the market to buy meat bones yesterday?
“Your mother went to the shop!” Li Lei said carefully. He didn’t know this niece very well and was afraid that she would cry.
Unexpectedly, when Ji Yuanyuan heard this, she only responded with an ‘oh’.
Li Lei looked at Ji Yuanyuan in surprise.
His leader also had a daughter who was about the same age as Yuanyuan and lived in the military compound.
There was a time when the leader had something to do in the morning and went out. The child did not see her mother when she woke up. She was crying so much that they could even hear her while she was running.
But why was Yuanyuan different from others?
Ji Yuanyuan yawned. Seeing that Li Lei had not put himself down for a long time, she reminded him, “Eldest Uncle, I’m going to brush my teeth and wash my face.”
Only then did Li Lei react and quickly put her down.
Ji Yuanyuan walked to the bathroom with her short legs.
She was only a few centimeters taller than the sink in the bathroom. She could not even reach the faucet. Li Lei was about to go forward to help when he saw Ji Yuanyuan very skillfully move a small stool out from under the bathroom sink.
Her feet stepped on the stool, and the height was just right.
She took out her toothbrush and skillfully started brushing her teeth!
Li Lei felt a little sad and proud as he watched this.
Other families’ children can’t wash their faces and brush their teeth by themselves at such an age!
However, his niece can!
Ji Yuanyuan quickly finished washing up. After coming out of the bathroom, she forced a smile and looked at Li Lei, “Eldest Uncle, come with me to the market later. We’ll go buy meat and bones to eat!”
Li Lei was a little surprised when he heard this, “Why do you want to buy meat and bones?”
Coincidentally, Li Yong’s meal was ready. He came out of the kitchen and walked toward Ji Zixuan’s room while explaining, “Make soup for her grandfather to drink!”
“Grandfather? Isn’t Yuanyuan’s grandfather…” Li Lei looked at Li Yong and his pupils dilated subconsciously.
If he remembered correctly, Yuanyuan’s grandfather had already pa.s.sed away more than twenty years ago.
“It’s her fiancé’s grandfather, isn’t that her grandfather too? Moreover, this grandfather dotes on her even more than her biological grandfather.”
Even if Ji Jianguo’s short-lived father was still alive, he might not necessarily dote on Yuanyuan like Qin Junshan!
No, not necessarily, but definitely not!
After Li Yong finished speaking, he pushed open the brothers’ room and shouted, “Ji Zixuan, Ji Zi’ang, get up and eat!”
After shouting twice, the brothers opened their eyes hazily.
Li Lei knew that Ji Yuanyuan had been arranged a child betrothal.
Therefore, after a short moment of surprise, he agreed, “No problem, we’ll go after we finish eating!”
Li Yong made egg-fried rice and soup for breakfast.
After breakfast, Li Lei packed a meal and left with Ji Yuanyuan. When he pa.s.sed by the store, he gave the meal to Li Xu.
After leaving the store, Ji Yuanyuan took Li Lei to the market with familiarity.
