After picking up a lucky girl, all the beasts line up to come to your door

Mu Baobao hummed heavily, "I like Brother You Xiao very much."

Mu Pingping was a little jealous and a little surprised. "Baby, this is your first time meeting You Xiao. Why do you like him so much?"

He reached out and pinched his sister's chubby cheeks, "Big brother is jealous."

Mu Baobao hugged his arm and said coquettishly, "I like Big Brother the most. Brother You Xiao is very far behind. Big Brother, please don't be jealous."

Mu Pingping felt relieved after hearing this and finally stopped feeling resentful.

Mu Baobao added, "That's right, the first time I saw Brother You Xiao, I felt that he was a very good person."

Mu Pingping guessed that it was because of chemistry, or it might be related to the baby's abilities.

The baby's talent is that animals like her very much, which may allow her to distinguish between good and evil.

But what needs to be taught should still be taught.

"Baby, we can't just look at the first encounter. We need to get to know the person more closely before we can know if he's good or bad. Do you understand?"

Mu Baobao took note of it obediently, "Big Brother, should we hire Brother You Xiao as a helper?"

"Grandma said that our shop needs help."

Mu Pingping said, "Let's discuss this matter with our family when we get back. It's not something we can decide alone."

If You Xiao has no problems and no troubles at home, and he is willing to come and help, it is okay to hire him.

Mubaobao understood and said, "Okay."

I'll ask my grandparents in the evening.

the other side.

You Xiao took the barbecue skewers and returned home as quickly as possible.

His home is in a working-class area filled with low houses and dirt roads.

Walking on it on a hot day would raise a layer of dust, and walking on it on a rainy day would leave you with muddy water.

You Xiao's home is a very ordinary low house with three rooms, a main room, a kitchen and a toilet.

The toilet was built in the front yard by the family for You Xiao's convenience and to prevent him from wasting time studying.

Inevitably, the taste is a bit strong.

When You Xiao returned home, he saw his mother cleaning the toilet and felt sad.

"Mom, look what I brought back?"

You Xiao's mother looks like she is in her sixties or seventies, but in fact she is less than forty years old.

Even in the daytime, her eyes couldn't see clearly, and she could only see an outline from a distance.

"A stick?"

She smelled the aroma of meat and asked in surprise, "Xiaoxiao, did you buy meat? Where did you buy it?"

The price of pork is getting more and more expensive now, and even pig offal is beyond their reach.

Even if I wanted to have a quick snack or nourish Xiaoxiao, it was no longer possible.

You Xiao put the barbecue skewers in the kitchen before talking about meeting his classmates.

"Don't worry, mother. I'll make up the difference when I earn money from copying books."

Upon hearing this, You Xiaoniang wiped away her tears and apologized profusely, "Xiaoxiao, it's your parents who are useless and didn't give you a good life."

If it weren't for the burden of being their parents, Xiaoxiao wouldn't be living the life she has now with her talent for studying.

Xiaoxiao's enlightenment teacher said that he has an excellent talent for studying, and if he studies hard, he will definitely be able to enter the official career.

However, studying is too expensive. Even if the child's father takes Xiaoxiao's two younger brothers and finds work day and night, it is often not enough for Xiaoxiao to study.

You Xiao felt sad when she heard this, "Mom, don't say that."

"I am very happy to be my parents' son."

"Besides, I don't have money now, but I will have money when I become famous."

You Xiaoniang was worried that he would go astray and was not at ease. "Xiaoxiao, no matter how short of money our family is, you can't do anything wrong, understand?"

You Xiao agreed without hesitation. He would not do anything he shouldn't do for money, as that would be a betrayal of his parents' teachings.

"Mom, Dad and my two brothers are working at the docks again?"

You Xiaoniang said, "Yes."

"It's just that there are fewer boats at the dock recently. I heard that the water level has dropped a lot, and some ships can't get in."

You Xiao noticed this question, "How much has the water level dropped?"

"You'll have to ask your father and two younger brothers. I'm not too sure."

"Okay. Mom, go get some rest. Leave the rest to me."

"That won't work. Go study and leave the things here to me. Just listen to me."

You Xiao refused to do so and insisted on helping his mother.

Just when the mother and son were in a stalemate, You Xiao's father and two younger brothers came back.

"Dad, you're back?" You Xiao noticed that the three of them were not in a good mood, and he understood that they had not found anything to do.

My father and two younger brothers have never been to school and cannot read or write. They usually make money by working hard.

But making money by physical labor is very unstable because there are too many people making money by physical labor.

You Xiao's father forced a smile, "Xiaoxiao is back."

He took over the work in his wife's hands and continued to clean the toilet. "If Xiaoxiao is tired from studying, she can take a rest and not get too tired."

You Xiao's two younger brothers went to the kitchen to drink water and saw the grilled skewers in the kitchen.

"Brother, did you buy the barbecue skewers in the kitchen?" You San asked.

You Xiao patiently explained the situation and said, "Let's have lunch together at home."

You San swallowed his saliva, and even though he was greedy, he shook his head, "Brother, eat it. You need to replenish your body."

Brother, studying is too taxing on your brain. You should eat more meat to nourish your body.

You Xiao was not willing to do that at all. The purpose of bringing back the barbecue skewers was to eat them with his family.

After the money for copying the books was paid off and the money for the barbecue skewers was paid off, if there was any left, he would buy two more skewers of barbecue and some pork.

……

More and more people came to the shop, and Mu Baobao and Mu Pingping became busy.

The Mu family and Zheng Xingguang were busy until the afternoon before they had some free time.

Everyone sat on the benches to rest.

Zhu pounded her leg lightly, her face wrinkled with a smile. "I'm tired this morning, but business is good."

She would rather be a little tired so that she can earn more money.

Mu Laodie and others agreed.

“It would be great if there were always such good businesses in the future.”

"Stop saying things like that. It's not good."

Baby Mu sat next to the ice basin, poking the ice cubes inside with his little paws from time to time.

She is quite interested in this.

Zheng Xingguang sat next to her and didn't understand why she was interested in ice cubes.

"Baby, I have an ice cellar at home. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Mu Baobao asked, "Little brother, what is an ice cellar? Is it a place where ice sleeps?"

Zheng Xingguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "No."

"The ice cellar is where ice is stored. There are lots and lots of ice cubes in it. It's very cool today."

Mu Baobao exclaimed, looking at him with starry eyes, "Little brother, your family is amazing. There is actually a place like this."

Zheng Xingguang suddenly thought that having an ice cellar at home was quite impressive. "Baby, do you want to go see it?"

Mu Baobao nodded like a little chicken pecking at rice, "Yes, yes, yes!"

She turned and ran to Zhu and asked cheerfully, "Grandma, can I go to my little brother's house and see his ice cellar?"
