Chapter 16 Responsibility
On the way back from the flower market, Xue Qing couldn't help but ask Ji Xiaoxi: "Xixi, why do you need to open a flower shop to help that old grandmother and her granddaughter." ”
Ji Xiaoxi's eyes looked into the distance as if he had thought of something, and said lightly: "Looking at that little girl, I seem to see myself when I was a child." ”
"I was like that when I was a kid. But I think she's luckier than me, at least she has a grandmother who really cares for herself. Since I came to the Ji family, none of the people in the Ji family have been sincere to me, and there is no moment when they will be sincere to me. ”
"I know what it's like to lose my parents and have no one to take care of them, and I want to help some of them. ”
Xiaoqing, do you understand?
Xue Qing naturally knew everything that happened to Ji Xiaoxi in the Ji family for a long time, and when she heard her recall her past, she couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken.
At that moment, I understood why Ji Xiaoxi had to take care of the grandfather and grandson so firmly.
"Okay Xiaoxi, I will definitely support you, do you have enough funds now? The flower shop should still need a lot of money, if you don't have enough of the rest, I will pay for it." ”
Although Xue Qing's family is not a rich and noble family, her family background is also good, and the Xue family is only one of her daughters. I have always held it in the palm of my hand and pampered it, and my pocket money is naturally a lot.
Ji Xiaoxi looked at Xue Qing and smiled soothingly.
"Since Xiaoqing is what I want to help my grandmother and that little friend, the money is naturally what I want to pay, and I want to open the flower shop myself, so you don't have to help, if you really want to help, I'll help in the store later." ”
The two of them continued to walk, Ji Xiaoxi calculated his savings in his heart, and then muttered slightly: "I still have some deposits, but it's just ......"
Xue Qing saw that Ji Xiaoxi didn't say anything and asked, "Xixi, what's wrong with you? Wouldn't it be good to have a deposit? Could it be that you don't have enough money to open a flower shop?"
Ji Xiaoxi shook her head, she looked up at the sky.
In fact, the only thing I have thought about saving money over the years is to find my mother with some travel expenses in the future, and I still believe that I will meet her one day.
But now that I think about this person, going to her is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, so I don't have to save this money to find her, if I really have a fate with my mother, we should meet again.
At night, the villa where the Xiao family was located also quickly entered a quiet place, and Ji Xiaoxi was lying on the bed full of thoughts.
I don't know if it's right for me to make up my mind to open a flower shop, maybe it won't do her much good in terms of monetary interests, but she believes that it will only bring a new life to the grandparents.
As long as you can help them, isn't it right to do everything you do?
Ji Xiaoxi gradually fell asleep in his infinite reverie.
In the dream, she dreamed of the wooden card left by her mother, and vaguely dreamed of her mother's gentle, elegant and beautiful figure.
It's just that she won't turn around and walk towards her.
The next morning, Ji Xiaoxi got up and started tidying up, and she carefully calculated what things she would prepare if she opened a store.
checked all his savings, over the years in the Ji family, although they didn't give Ji Xiaoxi much money, but Ji Xiaoxi has been diligent and thrifty, plus he has been taking a scholarship from the school since he started school, so he has also accumulated a lot, and it should be enough to open a flower shop.
Since you want to open a store, the first thing you need to prepare is a storefront.
How can you find a store with the right location and not so high a price?
Ji Xiaoxi felt that he should first give the location of the flower shop, and then go to the vicinity to find the store.
Now the flower shops in some bustling markets should be saturated, and the prices of the shops in those markets should be very high, which Ji Xiaoxi can't afford.
So Ji Xiaoxi decided to find another way and find a suitable place again.
Ji Xiaoxi looked at the map of City A for a long time, and suddenly thought of why he didn't open a flower shop near A University, he happened to be studying at A University, and he could take care of the flower shop on weekdays.
Moreover, land A is located in a slightly remote place in city A, the price of the store is not too high, there are universities and some residential areas, and the population flow in the vicinity is not low, so this should almost be the most cost-effective area in city A to open a store.
Ji Xiaoxi is not worried about whether college students are willing to buy flowers, she understands that most young people now have a relatively high demand for flowers, boys will buy flowers for their girlfriends, and girls will take the initiative to buy flowers to decorate their bedrooms.
When the time comes, they can provide some door-to-door services, and then they will definitely solve the needs of a group of little lazy people for flowers.
The more Ji Xiaoxi thought about it, the more she felt that her idea was correct, she should find a store near A University, and as far as she knew, there was no better flower shop near A University, just like if she and Xue Qing wanted to buy flowers, they would go to a flower market far away.
Ji Xiaoxi decided to rush to A University after breakfast to see if there were any spare stores nearby.
During breakfast, Ji Xiaoxi didn't meet Xiao Ruoyan as usual, she felt a little strange, but she didn't say anything.
He and Xiao Ruoyan are just strangers living under the same roof, so why bother each other, besides, he is just his brother's wife, and he shouldn't have anything to do with him.
You can't take it for granted that there is an intersection just because you have been out together twice, and you still have to take care of your duty.
Ji Xiaoxi is still very clear about her position, she is just the bride that the Ji family married off, and she is just a link that the Ji family uses to cling to the Xiao family. It's just that she herself doesn't want to be this bond now, so she wants to cut off contact with the Ji family.
Even if the Xiao family is not bad to themselves, they can't forget that only abiding by their duties is the right way.
The housekeeper came over, and he saw Ji Xiaoxi eating breakfast alone, so he took the initiative to explain: "Miss Ji, the little master went on a business trip today, and he had an early plane to the United States, so he didn't have breakfast with you." ”
Ji Xiaoxi's explanation as a housekeeper was just normal politeness, so he nodded indifferently and continued to drink his milk.
The housekeeper said these words to remind Ji Xiaoxi not to forget Xiao Ruoyan, even when Xiao Ruoyan was away, the housekeeper would take the initiative to mention it, just to increase the weight of Xiao Ruoyan in Ji Xiaoxi's heart.
This is also what Xiao Qi requested.
After breakfast, Ji Xiaoxi carried her schoolbag and wore a sportswear, and hurriedly ran to A University, she felt that she had to find a suitable store as quickly as possible, so that she could take the grandfather and grandson over as soon as possible.
Since I promised them, I must do it as soon as possible.
To be a man, you must keep your promises.
