Rebirth 08: Equipment God

Chapter 97 Do You Like Zhai Da?
A sudden family meeting ended successfully. After Zhai Da's repeated emphasis, Yu Xiaoli finally accepted the fact that her son gave her money.

Of course, Zhai Da also knew that his mother was trying to save the money for him.

After washing the dishes, Zhai Da returned to the small room and saw Lu Wei's tall and slender figure sitting at the desk.

The light from the [inextinguishable light bulb] on the roof was dim, making the area illuminated by the desk lamp look like a warm campfire in the dark, and someone was waiting beside the campfire.

Zhai Da tapped Lu Wei's back with his knuckles: "Be careful of your hunchback."

Lu Wei seemed to have a switch pressed, and she held her head high and chest out.

"How much money do you have left with you?"

Lu Wei quickly reported the number: "1589.62."

She couldn't save much money originally, and she had to rely on the willpower of a ninja to eat, and most of her salary was given to her beastly father.
Come to think of it, it seems like there has been no news about Wu Yue for a while. What is this guy busy with?
Lu Benqing is coming out soon, he has work to do again.

As for the nearly sixteen thousand yuan that Lu Wei has now, the source of it is very simple. It was given to her when she left the woolen mill. At that time, one month's salary was withheld, but when she left, they negotiated and not a penny was deducted.

Adding in the tutoring salary that was not spent in the last judicial auction, Lu Wei's theoretical property is about 3000 yuan. Given her kind-hearted personality, apart from buying groceries for the family, she basically has no extra expenses.

It is enough to hold on until the college entrance examination is over or even to go to college in September. After that, it is summer work, college work, work-study program, scholarships, student loans.
It is not expensive to go to university in China, and there are many ways to go as long as you work hard. What's more, Lu Wei's grades will definitely amaze everyone, and any school will help her with any difficulties.

In fact, she can really afford the cost of college by herself.

But Zhai Da would naturally not let Lu Wei work so hard.

There is no rush to say it now, let the girl think this way first. Only when she believes that "she can solve the problem of money for college by herself" will she feel more comfortable and natural in this family.

It was time to go to college.
Can she still live in the dormitory?
Without disturbing Lu Wei for the time being, Zhai Da lay back on his bed, took out his cell phone and started pressing the calculator.

73826.15*0.2.

The result is 14765.12, close to fifteen thousand.

Zhai Da pursed his lips. This was the part that belonged to Lu Siwen in the 80:20 split he and Lu Siwen had agreed upon before.

More than you thought.

But in the end, he calmly sent a message to Lu Siwen, informing her that "the income has arrived and it's time to divide the money", and asked her to send her the card number, which he would handle when he transferred the money to his mother.

When people share money, it is natural to feel distressed.

In fact, he had countless ways to not share the money, and Lu Siwen might not need it, so he just teased the little girl and got away with it.

You can even throw more chores to Lu Siwen without paying a penny, or use "corporate-level" thinking and only give her a reward that matches the "value of a high school student in the labor market" and throw 800 yuan in her face. Lu Siwen will probably be happy to accept it.

But that is not distribution according to work.

He was able to restrain this instinct, after all, he had made a vow.

It's too little money to even think about it. I might as well go back to the Woolen Textile Middle School overnight and tear up the sticky note to avoid embarrassment.

After the message was sent, Lu Siwen, who usually replied immediately, did not reply for a long time. Zhai Da waited for a few minutes without any response, so he put it aside and returned to his own study rhythm.

Lu Wei sensed Zhai Da’s joining and moved her chair.

"Text me your card number later. You haven't spent all the tutoring money yet."

"I do not want."

"Say no means yes."

"Then I want it."

"it is good."

'Bully'

------

At the same time, a dinner was also going on in a villa community in Dongyang. Aunt Liu, who had been busy all afternoon, served dishes one after another, and then sat at the end of the table, keeping some distance from the family.

She had already served some of the dishes on her own small plate.

Lu Siwen ate quietly, while Lu Zetao held a book in one hand and read while eating.

Qian Yarong was on the phone all the time. She put it down only after she had eaten half of her meal and chatted with her husband about work.

Suddenly he asked, "Siwen, the teacher said that your mock exam results didn't seem to improve much this time?"

Lu Siwen, who was eating, lowered his head guiltily: "I didn't do well in math."

Under the new regulations in 08, the test papers for Chinese, mathematics and English for arts and science subjects are exactly the same. Although her mathematics is not bad, she is not strong either.

Qian Yarong sighed, "Don't be too stressed. Domestic education is just like that. The college entrance examination is just one of the tools for you to apply for American universities, and it is not the most important one. I have asked a powerful friend to ask for your recommendation letter."

"You can go there in July to familiarize yourself with the language during the summer vacation. Enrollment will start in August and school will start in September. I have also found a good homestay. Once you are settled, your father and I will buy the property."

Their family is naturally one of the richest families in Dongyang, but it is not so outstanding in the whole country, let alone abroad, so Lu Siwen's road to studying abroad is not a smooth one. Like many international students, he has to pass one hurdle after another.

Fortunately, money can solve most problems there, as long as you are willing to spend it.

Qian Yarong was talking about her plans for Lu Siwen, or rather, the plans for the whole family, with some fantasies in her expression. At this time, Lu Siwen's cell phone rang. She subconsciously took a look and saw that it was a message from "Classmate Zhai". She clicked it without hesitation.

The content was that Xinglang’s share of the profits had arrived, and she was asked for her card number to transfer the money. It also talked about the results of the communication with the publishing house.

Money is a small matter, but Zhai Da rarely contacted her on his own initiative, let alone sent such a long list of content. Lu Siwen smiled as she read it, which made Qian Yarong a little unhappy over time.

"Whose news?"

Lu Siwen said honestly: "It belongs to classmate Zhai."

Qian Yarong frowned slightly: "The college entrance examination is coming soon. Isn't Zhai Da's grades worse than yours? Aren't you afraid of affecting each other's studies?"

Lu Siwen looked up and said proudly, "Zhai Da is the top student in the grade."

Qian Yarong paused.
Zhai Da, you are the top student in your grade, so why are you so proud? Are you the only one who is delayed?
However, Qian Yarong was really surprised that the little boy ranked first in the grade. He didn't look like
Lu Siwen had not yet noticed the change in his mother's mood, or perhaps Qian Yarong was just this serious most of the time, and her mind was still immersed in Zhai Da's text message.

The blog is very popular, with tens of thousands of views and thousands of comments for each post. Although Zhai Da has never paid attention to it, Lu Siwen manages it every day, which is a very fulfilling thing.

Publishing is an important step for Zhai to showcase his talent to the world. This happened with her participation, and her joy may be even greater than Zhai Da's.

Qian Yarong frowned and said, "Siwen, I think you should focus on studying during this last period of time. It's best not to get involved in these things anymore."

This is completely opposite to what I just said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Lu Siwen finally sensed her mother's irritability: "Mom, I didn't delay my studies."

"I think you're already late."

"My Chinese grades have improved. My teacher praised me for my great progress in writing. Zhai has taught me a lot!"

"Chinese is not important, English is important."

“I’m number one in my grade in English!”

At this time, Lu Zetao, who had been reading and eating, suddenly spoke.

"Siwen."

The mother and daughter fell silent at the same time and turned to look at the head of the family.

"Do you like Zhai Da?"

　Today is the double monthly ticket day!

　　Come on! I'm in good health! I can handle it!
