Mother Xiao snickered and had an I-knew-you-had-an-agenda-look on her. “Go ahead. What is it that you would like to do for you? You want to buy a house or move to a new job?”
Tong Xuelu shook her head. “Neither. I want a complete set of senior high school mathematics, physics, and chemistry booklets, and I want 1,000 copies of it.”? ?Mother Xiao looked at Tong Xuelu like she had seen a ghost. “What do you want that for? And that many copies of it.”Tong Xuelu explained, “Resources are difficult to co by right now, and many don’t even have enough to eat, never mind going to school and having an education. My heart breaks every ti I see soone who longed to be educated but is not able to.”“As such, I want to have so copies, so I can help them out without expecting anything in return. Aunty Ning, I am sure soone as kind as you would not turn down, right?”Mother Xiao, “……”Getting a complete set of mathematics, physics, and chemistry textbooks wasn’t difficult. After all, her Big Brother worked at the Departnt of Education. But to make 1,000 copies of them was a lot of work.Tong Xuelu said, “If you don’t want to do it, then just pretend that I never brought it up.”Mother Xiao stared at Tong Xuelu and, after a long while, finally said through gritted teeth, “Fine. I will get that for you. But you better keep your promise. If you dare to co close to……”Tong Xuelu interrupted her. “As long as you give what I’ve asked for, I will keep to my words. But the best solution is to send Chengping back to the troops as soon as possible.”Of course, Mother Xiao knew that sending Xiao Chengping back to the troops would not do any good if the two continued to see each other.Tong Xuelu added, “Oh right. I lack a fruit tree where I am staying now. If Aunty Ning can get one of those, that would be great.”Now was the perfect ti to throw in all of her outrageous requests.Mother Xiao gritted her teeth and said, “Fine!”Mother Xiao finally left the governnt-operated restaurant with a long face.Tong Xuelu’s lips curved upward after Mother Xiao had left.With the ‘kindness’ of Mother Xiao, she killed three birds with one stone.She recalled that when the University Entrance Examinations were reinstated, many couldn’t even borrow a copy of the textbooks, let alone information regarding the examinations.She planned to sell these for cheap in a year’s ti.She could make so money doing that, and she would also be able to help those who would be taking the examinations a year from now.It was very difficult for just anyone to find a complete set of mathematics, physics, and chemistry textbooks. It was unlikely that she would be able to find them at a bookstore.But Mother Xiao had the ans.And last but not the least, aside from earning money and helping others, she could finally get rid of Xiao Chengping, the rotten cherry blossom.Xiao Chengping wasn’t a bad guy himself, but with soone like that as his mother, she didn’t even want to be friends with him.As for whether she would feel bad about causing Mother Xiao to spend so much money? The answer, of course, was a resounding “no.”Had she not taken all of these, Mother Xiao would think that she still had a thing for Xiao Chengping and just might co and harass her from ti to ti.That would bring about more troubles in the future.Besides, Mother Xiao started scolding her before she even found out what had happened as soon as she had arrived. It would be wrong to not make her spend a bunch of money.Tong Xuelu was very happy when she thought about the first bucket of gold that she had earned.This happiness was short-lived, however, because she had discovered that Tong Jiaxin was hurt when she got ho.Tong Xuelu noticed that the atmosphere was different than usual as soon as she stepped inside their ho.Tong Jiaxin sat facing the wall with his arms crossed in front of him like he was mad at soone. Tong Jiaming sat in front of him, not looking too happy himself.Tong Mianmian’s big eyes were limpid. Normally, she would be smiling so much that her eyes would curve like crescent moons, but they were filled with worries right now.She looked at her Second Brother, then turned to look at her Third Brother. Her large eyes blinked, and she said, “Don’t fight, Second Brother, Third Brother. Mianmian has candies for you two.”
