Chapter 77 Pride Hu Xuehui 2
On the first day of winter vacation, Ji Feng woke up early to help his mother ride the tricycle to the vegetable market. After handing out some of the common dishes, Ji Feng and his mother arrived at the market.
Because the stalls in the market had to pay a fixed management fee and some taxes every year, a stall that was about two meters wide costed at least a thousand yuan a year. For Ji Feng's family, this amount of money was definitely not a small amount.
In order to save money, Ji Feng's mother, Xiao Sumei, had no choice but to set up stalls and sell vegetables on the street outside the market. Furthermore, since there were no booths, she could only open the back door of the tricycle and use it as a booth.
As a result, once the weather was bad, they could only hold umbrellas and sell vegetables at the same time. Because the car wasn't big, the fixed umbrellas couldn't be fixed and couldn't be used.
Just imagine, if it was winter, the cold wind would be like a knife, but there was nothing to cover them.
Every time he thought of this, Ji Feng's heart would ache uncontrollably.
After braking the car and fixing it at the side of the street, Ji Feng rushed to arrange the dishes so that when a pa.s.serby pa.s.sed by, they would be able to clearly see what kind of dishes were there.
Looking at her son's busy figure, Xiao Sumei smiled with gratification. Her son was filial and filial. Furthermore, he already knew how much she felt for her. She was extremely happy in her heart.
After he was done with all the work, Ji Feng took out two more small stools from the front of the car and said with a smile, ”Mom, you can sit down. I'll be selling vegetables today. You just watch from the side.”
Xiao Sumei couldn't help but laugh, ”Forget it, I'll just make you sell your vegetables. ”Feng'er, watch from the side. If Mom is too busy, just give me a hand.”
Ji Feng could only bitterly smile and nod his head. It seemed that his mother still didn't believe him.
Because he came too early, there weren't many people on the street, so Ji Feng accompanied his mother and chatted.
When it came to Ji Feng's studies, Ji Feng could not help but smile and said: ”Mom, don't worry. I promise you that you will come back from a famous university. If it isn't in Yan Jing, then it's in Jiang Prefecture.”
When Xiao Sumei heard the two words' Yan Jing ', her heart immediately beat violently. An unnatural expression flashed across her eyes. She subconsciously combed her hair and it seemed very unnatural.
”Good, good. It would be best if it was a school in Jiang Prefecture. That would be a big city with an international scope. If you study there, you will naturally gain experience as well!” Xiao Sumei forced a smile.
He frowned, thinking that his mother was worried about where the tuition fees for the university would come from, so he couldn't help but laugh: ”Mom, let me tell you a piece of good news. It is said that from this year onwards, our school will have some kind of public funds specially prepared for children who can't afford to attend school. ”Also, now that I'm in university, I can apply for a student loan. I don't need to spend any money when I'm in university, I just need to work after graduation and then pay the money back!”
”That's good, that's good!” Xiao Sumei nodded her head repeatedly.
