What should I do if I only go on Saturdays and Sundays, and the time is still too little? Elementary school students actually have little homework, and they don't have to study at night like middle school students, but in fact, there is quite a lot of time in the afternoon, after all, school ends at half past four.
Lin Caiwei thought, just eat dinner at night and brush up for a few hours, accumulate five days a week, and you can make a lot of money, plus Saturday and Sunday, it is even more impressive.
Thinking about it like this, Lin Caiwei couldn't sit still, took her schoolbag and prepared to go out, and when she walked to the door, she remembered that she had made an appointment with Huang Chuling to go to school together, and she had to talk to her mother, otherwise Huang Chuling would call her after a while, but she was not at home, it would be bad.
"Mom, I want to go to the place where I brush flat paper, I made an appointment with Xiaoling in the morning, she came to call me to school, I'll go first, you tell her" Lin Caiwei closed the door after speaking, and ran away as soon as she smoked.
Guan Lanfen, who was watching it, shook her head, thinking that this child was sensible and stable, and she turned around and began to be in a hurry again.
Here, Lin Caiwei ran for a while, slowed down and walked, and said in her heart: My physical strength is not good, and exercise should be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
According to the vague memories in her memory, she searched for a while before finding the grandmother's house that was brushing flat paper.
Lin Caiwei stroked her chest, calmed her breath, tidied up the collar of her school uniform, and then smoothed her school uniform, smoothed her messy hair, wiped the sweat off her forehead, and then gently knocked on the wooden door.
When no one answered the first knock, Lin Caiwei knocked on the door for the second time after a minute, and just after knocking, an old voice came from inside, "Who, wait, here."
With a squeak, the door opened, and the person who came was short and dundun, wearing a navy blue smock often worn by old rural ladies, his chubby face was full of wrinkles, his hair was gray, and the whole person looked very kind, she glanced at Lin Caiwei and said curiously, "Little girl, are you knocking on the door?"
"Hello grandma, my name is Lin Caiwei, I live at No. XX, Huancheng East Road, Group 3 in the town, I am in the third grade of Xiaotun Primary School, I want to buy books to study hard, but my family's economy is not good, there is no extra money to buy books for me, I heard that you are short of small workers here to brush flat paper, can I brush it for you?" Lin Caiwei did not beat around the bush, but went straight to the point, not wasting time on both sides and showing her sincerity.
Li Yuying was stunned, a little surprised, not to mention the trivial work of brushing flat paper, it is still very boring, and the money she makes is actually not much. Generally, the more idle and poor old people in the town come to earn some money and subsidize the family, how can any young people want to come, let alone such a young girl.
After thinking about it, she hesitated, "Well, little girl, you're not here to play, are you? Grandma doesn't have time to play with you, so she has to brush flat paper, and she can't be busy by herself."
"I'm serious, grandma, you let me give you a brush to try it, if I don't brush well, you won't let me come, grandma, please give me a chance, I want to make money to buy books, and study hard at Kaoxi City No. 1 Middle School" Lin Caiwei first expressed her sincere attitude, and then said with a pitiful expression.
Li Yuying really couldn't bear to refuse such a sensible and studious child, so she could only agree, "Alas, okay, you can try it, if it doesn't work, I can't let you come."
"Hey, okay, thank you, grandma!" Lin Caiwei happily agreed, and followed Li Yuying into the house, which was a little messy, with flat paper that had been brushed and some that were being brushed.
As soon as Lin Caiwei entered the door, she took the initiative to stack the messy flat paper, put it aside, moved a small bench and sat on it, waiting for Li Yuying to tell her to do things.
Looking at the well-behaved and sensible Lin Caiwei, Li Yuying nodded slightly, and then handed her a stack of white paper, a brush, a bottle of golden paint, and a bottle of silver paint, and motioned Lin Caiwei to see how she brushed it.
Although Lin Caiwei brushed with Huang Chuling when she was eleven years old in her previous life, she is still very serious at the moment to see how Li Yuying brushes, she must study hard and not give the other party a chance to refuse her.
After demonstrating a few times, Li Yuying asked Lin Caiwei to brush a few to try, Lin Caiwei had a serious expression on her little face, carefully recalled Li Yuying's action essentials just now, and brushed several in a few strokes.
Li Yuying took it and looked at it, "Ouch, the little girl is good, good, okay, you have time to come and brush it in the future."
Lin Caiwei was happy, scratched her head and showed a shy smile, and said a little embarrassed, "Grandma, I'm still a student, you see that I will come over at six o'clock after school every afternoon after dinner, brush until nine o'clock in the evening, and then come back on Saturday and Sunday to brush you more, do you think it's okay?" After speaking, she looked at Li Yuying with some apprehension.
"Yes, why not, I'll give you a knot of money every day, you look at fifty pieces of flat paper and a dime, do you think you can accept it?" Li Yuying replied after thinking for a while.
"I can accept it! I can accept it so much, thank you grandma!" Lin Caiwei bowed to Li Yuying excitedly.
"Ouch, what are you doing, okay, okay, little girl, you will call me Grandma Li in the future, I'll call you Weiwei, okay" Li Yuying saw Lin Caiwei bowing to herself, she was a little surprised, knowing that the little girl was sensible, she liked Lin Caiwei more and more.
"Hey, okay! Grandma Li, then I'll go to school, I'll come over on time at six o'clock in the afternoon to report ~ Grandma Li goodbye~" Lin Caiwei waved at Li Yuying.
Then she turned around and ran towards the school, she was afraid that it would be bad if she was late and would be troubled by Qin Cuifen.
When she arrived at the classroom panting, the bell rang on her front foot when she entered the door, wiped her sweat, and secretly rejoiced that she was running fast and had all the strength to feed.
The first class in the afternoon was a music class, and Lin Caiwei was very relaxed and sang a nursery rhyme with everyone, "Little swallow, wear flower clothes, and come here every spring to ......"
The pleasant music class ended quickly, and after class, Lin Caiwei was grabbed and criticized by Huang Chuling, "Weiwei, why are you like this, you said that you would go to school together, why don't you wait for me?" Huang Chuling asked a little unhappily.
"Oh, Xiaoling, you know, I didn't say that I had to study hard and take the Xicheng No. 1 Middle School, so I wanted to buy some extracurricular books and tutorial books, but you know what level my family's situation is, my mother has no money to buy it for me, so I want to go to Grandma Li's house on the street to brush flat paper to earn some pocket money to buy books, and then at noon today, I won't go and ask that Grandma Li if I want me to brush it, I don't have time to wait for you, I will let my mother tell you, and then leave" Lin Caiwei patiently explained.
"Ah, yes, when I went to call you, there was no one at home," Huang Chuling said with a surprised face.
"Alas?!, yes, maybe they went out for something, so they didn't wait for you to come, okay, Xiaoling, don't blame me, I won't be next time, okay~" Lin Caiwei took Huang Chuling's hand and said coquettishly.
"Okay, okay, for the sake of you admitting your mistakes so sincerely, I'll forgive you generously," Huang Chuling said arrogantly.
"Weiwei, Xiaoling, tell you, tonight my brother and they are going to catch the yellow eel, and I want to go too, but unfortunately my brother doesn't take me there, because I am in the way" Yang Xiaopang pouted and said unhappily.
"However, if my brother catches the yellow eel, he can eat fried yellow eel tomorrow," Yang Xiaopang said that he was happy again.
"Sisi, you know how to eat, and then you will grow into a big fat man," Huang Chuling joked on the side.
"I don't care, I have to eat, if I don't eat, I'll be bored," Yang Xiaopang replied nonchalantly.
Lin Caiwei saw her friends arguing on the side, thoughtful. Catch yellow eels, catch yellow eels!!, by the way, you can catch yellow eels at night and sell them, but you have to brush flat paper at night, so you don't have time to go.
What to do, Lin Caiwei followed Huang Chuling with a bitter face, and Yang Xiaopang went to the playground for physical education class.
The absent-minded Lin Caiwei spent the afternoon like this, and when she came home and saw the cage in the corner of the yard to catch fish, Lin Caiwei seemed to think of something.
The cage for fishing, yes, take it now and put it in the paddy field, and when you go home in the evening, let your father accompany you to see it, haha, it's such a happy decision!
Then she remembered that her grandmother had said that yellow eels loved to eat earthworms, so she dug some earthworms by the roadside ditch and brought them with them.
Lin Caiwei, who thought of a way, walked towards her field with a fish cage, and after a while, she saw Lin's father and Lin's mother.
From afar, Lin Caiwei waved at them.
"Weiwei, what are you doing here, still carrying so many fish cages?" Lin Aiguo asked strangely.
"Dad, Mom, I heard that Sisi's brother is coming to catch yellow eels at night, and I want to come too, but I promised that Grandma Li will come to brush flat paper after dinner in the evening, so I want to put some fish cages in the field and catch some yellow eels to sell. Lin Caiwei explained.
"You kid, how can there be so many yellow eels that will put themselves in the fish cage" Lin Aiguo listened to his daughter's words and disagreed.
"I put the bait, they should come," Lin Caiwei said uncertainly.
"What bait?" Lin Aiguo asked.
"Earthworm, Dad, you can help me put it down, and the one next door will also be put away, I'll go back to cooking" After speaking, he turned around and strode home.
"Okay, you just let her go, otherwise she will trouble you when you go back," Guan Lanfen persuaded on the side.
Forget it, for the sake of her daughter becoming more and more sensible recently, let's get it for her, Lin Aiguo said in his heart.
