Fast Travel: Endangered Pup Rescue Project
Chapter 663: The Mother Exploiting Her Daughter
The next day, Song Xia got up very early again. Because the upper bunk was narrow, she gave the lower bunk to Wei Zhu and Yue Ting, and got out of bed quietly.
But the noise still woke Wei Zhu up: "Mom, are you going out to set up a stall so early?"
"Well, you continue to sleep, you don't have to get up."
Although he said so, Wei Zhu couldn't bear to watch Song Xia work alone, so he helped seal the packages of porridge and soy milk, and then carried them downstairs one by one.
With one more person, things were indeed much faster, which also made Song Xia more eager to open a shop. She didn't let Wei Zhu continue to follow her and forced him to go back and catch up on his sleep.
But Wei Zhu couldn't sleep at all. Seeing that Yue Ting was still asleep, he washed up and started reading the book that Pei Xin brought yesterday. Although he hadn't decided which unit to apply for, the review materials were the same.
When Yue Ting woke up, the two began to eat the breakfast Song Xia left for them. Yue Ting sighed happily: "Auntie's cooking skills are really good!"
Song Xia didn't make anything else. She just made the meat patties, vegetable patties, soy milk, eggs, etc. that she usually sells. She made them herself, so she didn't need to worry about hygiene or health.
"No wonder the parents ordered her to delete the account just two months after she created it. This must be a secret of their family. Auntie is lucky."
"It must be because my mother has a strong understanding ability."
"That's right, Wei Zhu, after we finish eating, let's go to the place where Auntie has her stall and see if there's anything we can do to help."
Wei Zhu looked hesitant: "My mother didn't let me go, so she told me to study hard at home."
Yue Ting asked curiously, "Wei Zhu, why are you so afraid of Auntie? I think she's quite kind! She's different from what she said on the phone."
Wei Zhu herself couldn't explain it, this was a habit she had developed since she was a child. When she was a child, her mother really disliked her and asked her to do all the work. If it weren't for her father's insistence, she might not have been able to graduate from college.
But to say that her mother didn't love her, it was because her mother only scolded her verbally since she was a child and rarely hit her. Her father said that he wanted her to continue studying. Although her mother objected, she didn't make a big fuss. She even gave her money to pay for her tuition after her father passed away.
She didn't know that Song Xia had paid her tuition because she had been studying for two years. If she dropped out of school at that time, wouldn't it be a bigger loss? It would be better to get a diploma and find a better job to subsidize the family. When she gets married in the future, she can also ask for more gifts.
However, Song Xia who traveled through time now is completely different. Although he has been deliberately imitating his previous tone, some habits are still revealed inadvertently.
"And now I've asked you to quit your job and concentrate on taking the civil service exam. Compared to my parents, you're like angels. Come on, just take it as a walk with me. Auntie won't say anything. Besides, you don't know how long you've been studying just now. You should go out for a walk and give your eyes a rest."
After hearing this, Wei Zhu decided to be bolder. It seemed that his mother was a little different.
The two of them worked together to clean up the rented apartment, went downstairs and walked out, onto the bustling street.
There are not only urban villages, hospitals, shopping malls, but also many apartment buildings here. It can be regarded as the city center, but the construction is relatively old and it belongs to the old city area. However, because life is convenient and there is everything within one kilometer, it is still very lively.
Song Xia's stall was in the alley next to the hospital opposite the urban village. Because Wei Zhu was moving things for Song Xia on a cart in the morning, she saw the stall at a glance. What she didn't expect was that customers were queuing up to buy.
"So many people!" Yue Ting was also surprised. How much should it sell for that day?
Wei Zhu hurried over to help. She couldn't help with anything else, so she helped pack the soy milk, eggs, porridge, etc. Yue Ting used the broom that Song Xia had placed aside to clean up the packaging boxes thrown away by some careless guests and the cups used to drink soy milk. "Auntie, is this your daughter?"
Song Xia smiled and said, "Yes, even though we didn't let her come, she insisted on coming."
"You are so blessed to have such a filial and beautiful daughter."
Wei Zhu blushed when she heard this. She thought her mother would say something polite, but she nodded directly: "She really makes me worry less."
They were all old customers, and they basically bought while chatting. Song Xia served the cake to the old man in front of him: "Uncle Zhao, aren't you discharged from the hospital?"
Uncle Zhao glared and said, "You can't come to buy it after you are discharged from the hospital. I can't eat without your cakes and soy milk every day."
Song Xia smiled and said, "Still the old rules?"
"I'll give one more portion today. Now that I'm here, I'll bring one to Jiang Hong. He hasn't come to buy it yet, right?"
"No, he's been busy these days. Every day when I get there, he's already in the hospital."
After taking care of Grandpa Zhao when he was discharged from the hospital, Jiang Hong was invited by the family of another patient to take care of him. There are few male nurses nowadays, and even fewer who are as careful and patient as Jiang Hong, so there is basically no free time. Workers like Jiang Hong also want to settle down in this city as soon as possible, so they are reluctant to give themselves a holiday.
"This brat." Uncle Zhao complained casually, but he still remembered Jiang Hong even after he was discharged from the hospital, which shows that they are both good people.
After seeing off Uncle Zhao, two young men who worked nearby came. When they saw Wei Zhu and Pei Xin, their eyes looked a little unnatural and they didn't talk as much as usual. Basically, every day when they bought breakfast here, they would complain to Song Xia about work, but today they seemed to be speechless.
It was the auntie who was selling fruit next to her who broke the awkwardness: "Sister Song, your daughter will help you set up the stall in the future, right?"
Song Xia waved her hand and smiled: "I run a small stall, how can I use a college student like her? She just came to help me today. Her main task is to study."
"You are still studying after graduating from college. Are you preparing for postgraduate study?"
"Yes." Song Xia didn't directly mention the civil service exam, fearing that someone with ulterior motives might hear and sabotage her. "Her previous job wasn't good, so let her quit and prepare for the exam. If she fails, I'll buy her a store and let her run her business in the future."
The auntie who was selling fruits nodded and said: "Your food is delicious. If you teach her some skills, you can open a shop. It's just that running a shop is harder than working."
"So it's up to her."
Wei Zhu didn't know that his mother had such a plan. He suddenly felt sad and touched.
"But don't you have a son? If you pass on the craft to your daughter, what if your son or your future daughter-in-law objects?"
"I give my whole self to my son, why would he be unhappy? As for my daughter-in-law, there's no sign of her!"
When Wei Zhu heard her mother say that she did it for Wei Deng, she showed no expression. Because she had heard this many times since she was a child, she gradually felt that it was natural. Her mother could support her to graduate from college and gave her three years to take the civil service exam. What else could she not be satisfied with? (End of this chapter)
