Chapter 308: Considerations
Once the New Year is over, she will go over there. Nuannuan is also about to enter her final year of high school, so there isn’t much she can do. At the very least, she can cook a meal for the two children. Granny Hua will first look after the place. Although Hua Jun is a bit simple-minded, he is a good kid and can help Granny Hua with some things.
Both of them are also about to return to Capital City. Let’s not mention the stall for now, Qin Xiangnuan needs to go to school, and Jian Zhiqing has to work. Qin Xiangnuan posted her handwritten rental sign inside the glass, so it’s not afraid of wind or sun. The shop’s location is good, too; during the hot summer, the sun can’t reach here, but it’s not dark either. It’s just that the bus station’s waiting room has a very large covering, which blocks the sun here. As for the winter, there’s nothing to worry about either, because there will be heating and air conditioning later on, and this area is densely populated, so it won’t get too cold. However, two shops down from hers, the other shops are fiercely baked by the sun in the summer, causing their walls to practically peel.
Qin Xiangnuan didn’t think of this, but Jian Zhiqing did, so this time, it was thanks to taking him out. Otherwise, she feels she would have been at a great disadvantage.
After returning, Qin Xiangnuan closed up and did her homework in the system. She revised her books, memorized what needed to be memorized, and reviewed what needed to be reviewed. Not to say her grades are good or anything, but with the amount of time she threw into studying, even the dumbest bird could fly far.
She isn’t very smart. In her past life, she only knew a few characters. Everything she has now was learned in this life. If others need one hour, she needs ten. Over the years, not a single day has she slacked off. It took her ten times longer than others to maintain her second place in the class.
She really wanted to be first.
However, when she saw that boy wearing glasses as thick as the bottom of a glass bottle, who doesn’t talk to anyone but just clings to his books every day, she couldn’t bear to snatch the first place from him. It’s not that she can’t, but she really doesn’t have the heart. She’s afraid if she gets first place, what if that kid can’t think straight and knocks himself dead on a book? So, she always wavers between second and third place in exams, slightly behind the first place and neck and neck with third place. It kept her consistently ranked, and the teachers were quite happy with her, and she was also considered one of the teacher’s favorites. However, she’s not very sociable. It’s not that she isn’t; she’s lived two lifetimes, and she has too many secrets. So, there are only a few people who are close to her, including Li Li and Mao Xiaomei. They have eaten her scallion pancakes for two years. Whenever Qin Xiangnuan sets up her stall, she never missed their breakfast, and neither have the two girls, who have grown quite a bit over these two years, from little girls to young women.
Originally, everyone went to school late at this age, but if they didn’t go to school, they’d probably be mothers by now.
In the evening after school, Qin Xiangnuan saw that Jian Zhiqing had arrived early. Conghua was obediently lying at his feet chewing on a bone, hugging it tightly between its two big paws and biting it with loud crunching sounds. Its teeth were indeed strong; such a big bone was about to be gnawed away after several days of chewing.
