As expected, Ding Xiaobai's college entrance examination results came down.

According to the normal procedure, the results of the college entrance examination will first go to the Education Bureau, and then distribute them to each school, and the school will then publicize and notify the students.

There will be a time difference of one to two days, and the admissions team of the top universities in the country can use the time difference of one or two days to grab high-scoring students.

As soon as Ding Xiaobai arrived home, he was instantly surrounded by the admissions team teachers of Q University and Beijing University.

In addition to the teachers from the admissions team of the two prestigious schools, the teachers from the Education Bureau and No. 7 Middle School are also there.

Through their mouths, Ruan Qingqing knew that Ding Xiaobai was the provincial champion in liberal arts this year, and he was also the first highest score in liberal arts in the city since the resumption of college entrance examination students.

After three years of difficult restudy, Ding Xiaobai finally begged for benevolence.

Ding Xiaobai chose Beijing University, which has always been her dream and dream.

Finally, the people from the Education Bureau and the admissions team left, and reporters from the TV station and newspaper came to Ding's house again to interview Ding Xiaobai and Ding's parents.

Ruan Qingqing originally wanted to wait to congratulate Ding Xiaobai in person, but seeing that Ding Xiaobai would be out of time for a while, she could only go back to the ice powder stall first to continue to be busy.

Ding Xiaobai's dream has come true, and she has to continue to work hard for her goal.

Two days later, in the evening, Ding's parents led Ding Xiaobai and personally came to the door to congratulate Ruan Da and express their gratitude and gratitude.

Ding Xiaobai won the female champion in one fell swoop, and Ruan Dahai is honored as a sponsor.

Ruan Qingqing had the opportunity to chat with Ding Xiaobai.

Because Ding Xiaobai won glory for the city and the school this time, the Education Bureau and No. 7 Middle School both gave commendations and awards.

The Education Bureau awarded 2,000 yuan in cash and No. 7 Middle School awarded 3,000 yuan.

With these two bonuses, it is enough for Ding Xiaobai to easily finish four years of college.

"Gently, thank you for helping me achieve my dream."

When leaving, Ding Xiaobai hugged Ruan lightly tightly, tears welled up in his eyes, and he was reluctant to let go for a long time.

Ruan Qingqing was also in tears, not only happy for her friend, but also a lot of reluctance.

Ding Xiaobai has been gone for four years, and the two may not see each other again throughout the year, and even in the future, Ding Xiaobai is likely to stay in another city to live, work, and start a family, and it will be even more difficult to meet again.

In the two lives combined, Ding Xiaobai can be regarded as the only and true bosom friend, Ruan Qingqing can't help but be sad, but life still has to go on, and it won't stop because of anyone's departure.

Life is a lonely journey, and no one can accompany anyone forever.

But true friends, even if they are on different sides of the world, will care about each other and bless each other in their hearts.

——

After a period of operation, Ruan Qingqing's ice noodle stall business maintained an average of 300 bowls of sales per day.

Although the sales volume is much higher than before, the complicated taste changes have also increased the cost a lot, and the profit of 300 bowls is about the same as the previous 200 bowls.

However, Ruan was very satisfied, especially when he saw that the balance on the ledger was rising every day, and this sense of satisfaction and happiness was indescribable.

Ruan Qingqing's ice powder stall is booming, while Jiang Chen's cement factory is in a desperate situation.

More than two months have passed, not a single cement brick has been sold, and the few funds on the account are on the verge of exhaustion, and even the wages of the workers cannot be paid.

Another sleepless night.

Jiang Chen and Zhang Chunxi haven't even bothered to go back to their homes recently, and they can't sleep when they go back anyway, so the two of them just lay on the roof of the factory in their clothes, smoking and worrying about killing time.

"People do business, the more money they make, the more their pockets are bulging, the better the days go by, we just go against others, we don't earn a penny, the debt behind the butt is getting bigger and bigger, and the year is not as good as a year."

"You only owed Liu Qiang 10,000 yuan before, then you owed 30,000 yuan, and now you owe 300,000 yuan to the bank."

Even Jiang Chen himself laughed, Zhang Chunxi also laughed, and the two laughed together, but how much bitterness and helplessness were contained in this laughter, I am afraid that even the two of them themselves can't tell the difference.

After laughing, Zhang Chunxi continued, "Mouse, why don't you go find a rich woman to support you, call the rich woman to help you pay off your debts, and then give you a house and a car, and I can live a good life with you." ”

Jiang Chen scolded, "Get out of your M, why don't you go?" ”

Zhang Chunxi teased, "I'm not as handsome as you, and other rich women don't look down on me." ”

——

Time flies quickly, and the summer vacation is coming to an end in a blink of an eye.

Ruan gently transferred the ice powder stall, including the stall truck and the ice powder recipe, to the owner of the steamed bun shop for 1,000 yuan.

Coupled with what she has earned in the past two months, the total is more than 2,480 yuan.

Ruan Dahai learned that she had earned so much in a summer vacation, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and praised her for her ability and success.

However, Ruan gently changed her mind -

"Dad, I don't want to decorate the house for a while."

When Ruan Dahai heard it, he joked with a smile, "Now that I know how hard it is to make money, I am reluctant to spend it?" If you are reluctant to spend it, you will not spend it, and save it first. ”

"It's not." Ruan shook his head slightly, "I want to give this money to Jiang Chen." ”

The smile on Ruan Dahai's face disappeared, and his tone was as sour as eating a lemon.

"I haven't married yet, so I want to give him all the money."

Ruan smiled lightly, "Dad, don't talk nonsense, Jiang Chen owes a lot of money to the bank now, and I just want to give him this money for emergency for the time being." ”

Ruan Dahai also learned about the debts of the cement factory through various channels, and he was willing to help Jiang Chen but could not do anything.

After all, this is not 120,000, but a full 300,000.

Even if he sold the garment factory, he wouldn't be able to raise so much money.

"Okay, anyway, you earned this money yourself, you make your own ideas, I don't object." It's still sour.

"Thank you Dad, you're the best!"

Ruan smiled sweetly, picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to Ruan Dahai.

"Dad, you eat watermelon, it's very sweet."

Ruan Dahai took it and said with some disgust: "After making so much money, invite me to eat watermelon?" ”

Ruan lightly hurriedly handed over another piece, "Then you can eat more." ”

“……”

Ruan Dahai glared at her, but took it, and ate a piece of watermelon in each hand with relish.

The watermelon that my daughter bought was sweet, so sweet that it was heartwarming.

"Dad."

"What's the matter?"

"In case, I mean in case Jiang Chen's cement factory closes down, you can let him go back to work in the garment factory."

Ruan Dahai said that this was simple, and he was about to agree immediately, but he heard his daughter say again, "Let him be a sales manager for the time being, and then promote him to a deputy general manager next year." ”

“……”

Ruan Dahai: Is it too late for him to spit out the watermelon now?

"Just let him be the general manager, I'll retire."

"If you're willing, I'm fine."

Ruan Dahai threw down the watermelon, got up and left.

Ruan gently called him from behind, "Dad, you don't eat watermelon anymore?" ”

"If you don't eat it, you're full of gas."

"Oh."

Ruan gently looked at a large plate of cut watermelons, thought about it, got up and walked outside.

Ruan Dahai saw that she was going out, and hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"I can't finish eating so much, so I'll bring it to Jiang Chen and them, so as not to waste it."

“……”

There you go!

Jiang Chen and Zhang Chunxi were not at home, Ruan gently gave some watermelons to Jiang Yao and Lin Ronghua, and brought the rest back.
