Chapter Twenty-Eight: Untying the Knot

The night is quiet and the moonlight is shining.

Lying in the warm quilt, Mucha couldn't sleep for a long time.

With the faint moonlight, she banished her thoughts into the distance. In fact, the heart has not figured out a clue.

Suddenly, Grandpa coughed, pulling Mucha out of his chaotic thoughts.

Mucha hurriedly got up, turned on the flashlight next to the pillow, took the water cup on the chair, touched the temperature, added some hot water, handed it to his grandfather, patted his grandfather on the back, and said, "Grandpa, drink some warm water."

Putting on his clothes, Li Lushan took the water cup, drank a few sips of water, and said, "Xia Xia, did your grandfather wake you up?"

"Grandpa, no, I just can't sleep." Mucha put away the water cup and helped her grandfather fold the quilt.

Li Lushan yawned, "Is there something wrong, can you tell your grandfather?"

"Grandpa, I don't know how to say it," Mucha didn't know how to speak for a while, and after a while, "Grandpa, if one person's life is turned upside down because of another person's words, but the result is good or bad, and the other person doesn't know, how should the other person be good?"

"I can't sleep in the middle of the night, just thinking about this? You can ask that person what he thinks, what kind of life does he yearn for? Li Lushan yawned again, "Go to sleep, it's two o'clock in the morning."

Mucha was suddenly enlightened, and her mood suddenly became brighter, "Grandpa, you sleep too."

After a while, Mucha let out a slight snoring.

Li Lushan took advantage of the moonlight to cover Mu Jin next to him, and after a long time, he fell asleep again.

The next morning, Mucha's biological clock rang automatically, and she turned her head to see that her grandparents had gotten up at some point, and only her younger brother was still asleep.

After getting dressed, Mucha found her grandmother in the kitchen who was making breakfast, "Grandma, you are so early, where is your grandfather?"

"When people get old, they are less sleepy, and they are suffocated in their urine, so they get up. Besides, you're going back to school today, and your grandmother wants to cook something delicious for you, and your grandfather is going to the backyard to feed the sheep. Xia Xia, why did you get up so early and go to sleep for a while. "Grandma sat by the stove and added firewood.

Mucha scooped a spoonful of water, washed her face, and said, "Grandma, I'm used to this, and I can exercise and recite when I get up early. By the way, did you all play Tai Chi that I taught you? ”

"Your grandfather doesn't hit the ground every day, and he said that his body is much better than before, and now he pulls me to fight every day." Grandma said with a smile.

Drying her face, Mucha greeted her grandmother and ran out impatiently.

Facing the sunrise, Mucha ran to her uncle's house.

At this time, Li Jiang just opened the gate and was about to feed the livestock, "Xia Xia, is there something wrong with coming so early?"

"Uncle, morning, I'm here to find my cousin and ask about studying." Mucha smiled and said, "Uncle, is my cousin up?"

"I'm getting up, you go to her house." Li Jiang said as he lifted a bundle of grass.

Mucha clasped his hands together and said, "Uncle, then I'll go in first."

Inside the house, Li Jing stood in front of the mirror, combing her hair, and saw Mucha open the curtain and come in, "Xia Xia, what happened to you last night, I see that you can't give up."

Mucha hesitated: "Cousin, if you don't come back to start a business, what kind of life will you live?"

"What's the matter, the most important thing for you now is to study hard and don't think about messing around. I don't have a clear answer to what kind of life I will live in the future, but I never regret the choice I made now, follow my heart, what will happen in the future, just the result, now just work hard and enjoy the process. Li Jing put down the comb, looked into Muxia's eyes and said.

Looking at the firm and enthusiastic light in her cousin's eyes, Mucha couldn't help but ask: "Cousin, did you want to start a business because of what I said, or did you have the idea of starting a business before?" Network sales and promotion, after you have a stable job, you can develop as a side hustle, so you are more relaxed. ”

"You were worried last night because I was going to start a business, right? Actually, I had the idea of starting a business for a long time. Li Jing sat down in a chair and began to braid her hair.

Hearing her cousin's words, Mucha's spirit relaxed, and when she saw that her cousin was going to braid her hair, she was also interested.

She stood behind Li Jing, skillfully picking and braiding her hair, and after a while, a simple and fresh fairy braid was braided.

At the same time, she also listened to Li Jing confiding in her heart: "Before, there was just no clear direction, during the summer vacation, you talked about this online sales and promotion, my cousin and I checked the information, and carefully analyzed, I think it is a wonderful project, just when your uncle talked about the construction of the new countryside, I made up my mind to come back and create my own world."

"And what about your boyfriend?" Mucha struggled again.

"You're not big, and you have a lot of worries," Li Jing smiled dumbly, then stood up, looked in the mirror, looked at the braided hair, and praised it, "Xia Xia, when did you have such a clever hand, I have never seen such a beautiful braided hair?"

Mucha was worried that her intervention after her rebirth would change her cousin's life.

I heard my cousin say that she had become ingenious, and hurriedly said, "I just saw my classmates in the dormitory, and they braided their hair like this, so they learned it a few times, didn't I think that my hair grew long, and I also braided it like this."

"yes, you'd better keep your hair up, now like this, you're a tomboy at all." Li Jing picked out a few hairpins and gave them to Muxia, "Let's go, go have breakfast with me."

Mucha looked at the time and hurriedly excused himself: "Cousin, you can eat, I'll go back to see if Xiao Jin is awake, we have to rush home early and go to school."

"Okay, I won't keep you anymore, do you want to find any more books?" Li Jing didn't force him to stay.

"No need, cousin, I'll look for it next month." Mucha walked out of the door and was silent for a moment, "Cousin, if you have any confusion in the process of starting a business, just send me a message, I can't help you financially, but I can definitely help you mentally."

After Mucha finished speaking, he ran forward without looking back, and his cousin shouted behind him: "You can study in peace, the adult's business, the adult will take care of it, the most important thing for you now is to ...... Learn...... Xi ......"

In the new week, some students are still immersed in the atmosphere of the holiday.

During the morning self-study, Mucha heard the discussion of the classmates around him, where to play during the holidays, or secretly went to the Internet café again, or forgot to play, and did not finish his homework.

Listening to the classmates gossiping about what they had seen and heard, Mucha turned her head to look out the window and began to wander.

After being reborn, she was either busy studying, or busy writing, and spent her weekends in the library, how long has it been since she took a serious look at the scenery around her?

Except for a few casual glances on the street during meals, she has never seriously looked at this small county town.

Fanhe County is a small city with distinct seasons, and when she was reborn, it was in summer, but now she can't remember what a small town looks like in summer.

What is she anxious about?

Are you worried that you won't be able to keep up with your studies? But worrying is the most time-wasting, and if you have that time, you might as well do a few questions.

Are you worried that you won't be able to spend enough money? But the time to make money in the future will be long, besides, she still has the advantage of being reborn, as long as she doesn't mess up, she will definitely earn enough money to spend.

Yes, in addition to trying to take root and absorb nutrients, she should also leave more good memories now.

In the future, when you look back, you can't just have endless exercises and endless books!

The ringing of "Bell Bell" for early self-study interrupted Mucha's contemplation.

Mucha wanted to go downstairs with He Miao to participate in the flag-raising ceremony, but found that there was nothing on He Miao's desk.

She had no choice but to follow her classmates downstairs and stand in the line of the sophomore (1) class.

Soon, Mucha became excited, and just after the flag-raising, the school leaders announced: The 2007 Huahai English Speech Contest has begun to register.

The students in the team, only a few interested students, gathered around the class teacher to ask.

Most of the students had already run to breakfast.

Huahai City is a fifth-tier city, and most of the students learn dumb English, and even more so in Fan and No. 4 Middle School, Muxia's ability to speak relatively standard English is still practiced hard at work.

In the office of the English group of the second year of high school, Mucha introduced herself fluently in English.

At the suggestion of Mr. Xu, who was still charming, Mucha stopped, took the notice with both hands, and looked at it seriously.

When he saw that the first, second and fifth places had bonuses of 500, 300, 200, 100, and 50 yuan respectively, Mucha shouted excitedly, after all, the current 100 yuan is equivalent to 300 yuan in 2022.

In his previous life, Mucha had only heard of this English speech contest, and he didn't have the courage to go to the teacher to learn about it, so now it is the first time to know that there is a prize money for the competition.

This time I signed up, Mucha also wanted to exercise myself, after all, what I lacked couldn't be learned by just reading books and doing questions.

Mucha quickly filled out the registration form, and after communicating with Teacher Xu, he went back to the classroom.

When passing by He Miao's seat, there was still nothing, and the doubts in Muxia's heart resurfaced.

She returned to her seat with a frown, and as soon as she sat down, she received a stack of test papers.

"What is this?" Mucha looked at the thick stack of test papers, not knowing why.

Mo Shaohua flipped through the test papers, cramped and uneasy: "I went back to Jindu during the holidays and found some test papers from my classmates.

"Thank you, how much is this?" Mucha looked at the test papers, and really couldn't refuse Mo Shaohua's kindness, she didn't have extra money to buy other study materials, but she still had the money to copy the papers.

Mo Shaohua waved his hand, "I don't have a lot of money, as long as you don't think I'm troublesome."

"Why, I like it very much, thank you so much." Mucha happily picked up one of the exam papers on it.

Suddenly, her heart was as cold as water, why didn't she know the first math problem?

"Mo Shaohua, did you do this test paper? How difficult do you find it? Mucha asked hopefully.
