Ch.49 Are You Wasting Your Money? (2)

Ji Yu brought her big school bag and rushed downstairs, she then took the book out of her school bag, and said to Xiao Yu: “Teacher asked us to practice pinyin.”

Xiao Yu took the textbook and asked: “Which page?”

When Ji Yu turned to that page, Xiao Yu said: “Read it to me.”

So, Ji Yu pronounced the words with standard pronunciation. Xiao Yu was silent for a while, she thought to herself, this was so much better than her own pronunciation, it didn’t seem like she needed a teacher to tutor her.

Xiao Yu asked Ji Yu to take out her other homework, and Ji Yu did as she was asked, she then completed all the homework very accurately right in front of Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu: “……you know them all?”

Ji Yu looked up at her and said happily: “Yes! I learned it when I was in kindergarten.”

Xiao Yu turned around emotionlessly and asked: “What did you say Teacher Yi was coming over to tutor for?”

Ji Xuan pondered for a while, then changed his words, “To supervise her so she does her homework?”

Xiao Yu muttered: “It’s inviting danger in the house.”

Ji Xuan: “Ji Yu likes her, so we asked her to come play with her.”

Xiao Yu: “How much do you pay her to come over per month?”

Kong Yuqing brought out a variety of preserved fruit and biscuits and placed them on the table, along with a few cups of apple juice. She then raised her head and said to Xiao Yu: “Ms. Yi is paid 8000 a month, mainly to play with the young lady on Saturdays. She completes her homework very quickly, so while she does her homework, in order not to disturb her, Teacher Yi will always talk to the master, or roam around the house. When she finishes her homework, she’ll play with her.”

Xiao Yu reached out and picked up a piece of pork jerky, and then said, “……I only made 3,200 a month for giving piano lessons.”

Kong Yuqing also said: “That is, she comes every week to play, 4 days a month, so that’s 2000 yuan per day!”

Xiao Yu sneered, looked at Ji Xuan and said, “Are you stupid?”

Ji Xuan: “……This price was mainly set by Ji Yu.” After they laid it out for him, why does it feel like he overpaid her?

So, Xiao Yu turned to teach Ji Yu: “Xiaoyu, how can you waste money like this?”

Ji Yu immediately retorted: “My father is rich!”

Xiao Yu pulled Xiao Ruoguang over and said, “Do you know how frugal your brother is? Xiaoguang, tell your sister, how did you live when you had no money?”

Xiao Ruoguang counted with his fingers and said: “In the past, when we didn’t have money? We would eat delicious steamed buns every day, sister, have you eaten steamed buns?”

Ji Yu shook her head, Xiao Ruoguang looked at her with a pitiful look in his eyes, and then said: “You have to buy the steamed buns the evening before, they’ll only be delicious that way. Then, the next morning, my mother will make egg soup using some boiling water and some pinches of sugar, we’ll eat it along with the steamed buns.” At this point, Xiao Ruoguang salivated, and said, “The egg soup is very beautiful, yellow, with a hint of sweetness as you took your first sip. The steamed buns were also very sweet and delicious.”

Ji Yu unconsciously started to salivate, Xiao Ruoguang continued: “Mom will make delicious white rice in the afternoon, and then soak the rice in a minced meat sauce.” Xiao Ruoguang glanced at Ji Yu again and asked: “Sister, have you tried minced meat sauce?”

Ji Yu shook her head pitifully and Xiao Ruoguang said: “Mom will buy meat every week and chop it into small pieces! Then she’ll boil them along with soy sauce, add sugar to it, and cook it once, we’ll soak white rice in it for a week. “

Xiao Ruoguang looked at Ji Yu and said with pity: “At night, we’ll slice the remaining of the steamed buns and fry them, we’ll eat them along with porridge. Have you never eaten fried steamed buns?”

Ji Yu shook her head with tears in her eyes, and said, “I, I haven’t tried that.”

Xiao Ruoguang furrowed his delicate eyebrows: “Have you never eaten such delicious food?”

Ji Yu bawled: “I, I, I’ve never tried these. Wa……”

Ji Xuan: “……”

Kong Yuqing: “……”
