Chapter 303: Resolve
"Xiang Yang, why are you here today?"
When Qin Xiangyang arrived, Xie Yonghong had already been there for a while. She always came early, and would help Qin Xiangnuan by firing up the stove and cleaning all her own tables and stools until they were spotless, without a trace of oil.
"Nuannuan is sick, so I’m standing in for her for the day."
Qin Xiangyang said with a smile, already rolling up his sleeves and starting to make pancakes.
Hearing that Qin Xiangnuan was sick, Xie Yonghong was really worried, but seeing Qin Xiangyang’s relaxed demeanor, she knew the young girl must not be too ill. Otherwise, Qin Xiangyang probably wouldn’t have the mood to come and sell pancakes.
Qin Xiangyang’s movements were not the least bit clumsy; he was quite proficient at making pancakes. Indeed, both siblings have been involved in this small business.
Regardless of the past, things are better now. Don’t look down on this little stall; the monthly earnings can be much more than a worker’s salary. Plus, with Qin Xiangyang attending military school now, things like food and clothing are provided by the state, and he hardly needs to spend any money. The two siblings have finally made it through hard times and don’t need to suffer anymore.
However, Xie Yonghong still remembered Qin Xiangnuan being sick. When Teacher Wang came in the afternoon, they planned to visit her together.
"Knock knock..." A knocking sound came from outside. Qin Xiangnuan lifted her face and continued grooming Conghua’s fur. Conghua didn’t bark, so it must be someone it recognized. Though Conghua was a bit lazy and slow, it was quite good at recognizing people, showing the awareness of a military dog. Otherwise, Qin Xiangnuan would feel like raising it was pointless—it ate a lot and didn’t even guard the door. Was she raising a guard dog or a dog lord?
