70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 403: Getting Busy

"You can’t eat anymore, you just had two pieces, don’t think I didn’t see you." Xu Mumu pinched the little kid’s face, it was so soft and smooth, his skin was very tender, it felt really nice to touch.

"I want to eat." The little guy pouted unhappily, his sister was no longer his most beloved sister, she wouldn’t even give him a pastry anymore.

"No more eating, come on, let’s go find Grandma." Xu Mumu had a headache, better let Grandma deal with this little rascal.

"I’ll head over first, you guys play here for a bit." Xu Mumu said to Su Yue’e, then took the little guy to find Madam Chen, who was enthusiastically helping to brew tea.

Professor Song watched with heartache on the side, the tea leaves he had stored away were all good tea, and Madam Chen was using it as if it were the cheap tea sticks from the brigade. Watching Madam Chen’s enthusiastic demeanor, he didn’t have the heart to say much.

Yin Yang naturally noticed too, but he just pursed his lips and smiled, saying nothing more. If the tea leaves were gone, they could just buy more. Even though Grandma was reluctant to spend money on snacks, she was still very enthusiastic.

Jiang Zhenghao and the others, who were passionate about studying, even brought out the knowledge they had accumulated and didn’t understand, asking Professor Song for answers, and Professor Song answered all of them one by one.

Jiang Zhenghao and his group didn’t leave until after having lunch in the small courtyard. If they hadn’t seen that Professor Song and the others were going to rest, they probably would have stayed until late afternoon before they thought about leaving.

After sending away a large group of guests, Madam Chen heaved a sigh of relief, silently hoping that so many people wouldn’t come again in the future. Just one meal cost quite a bit of money; Xu Mumu and Yin Yang were both young and didn’t know to save a little money.

Madam Chen thought to herself that she should remind her granddaughter more in the future, it’s not a good habit to spend money lavishly, there’s still a lifetime ahead, and who doesn’t have times when they urgently need money? She’s really worried about her granddaughter.

Xu Mumu had no idea what Madam Chen was thinking. Once those people left, she wasn’t planning to sleep anymore. Since she had a bit of inspiration, she headed next door.

Madam Chen knew Xu Mumu was going to be busy, so she took the little rascal to sleep instead. The little guy was only well-behaved when he was sleeping.

Over at Yun Luo’s side, she finally arrived at the Yun Family. Recently, the Yun family’s business had encountered some troubles. With Yin Yang informing them, they naturally knew who was behind it.

As soon as Yun Luo got home, she was scolded by Yun Ji. Because Yun Luo had run out, Yin Yang caused trouble for the Yun family, almost costing him his position as the heir. This time, Yin Yang’s move was unexpectedly ruthless.

"Brother, I just wanted to see Yin Yang." Yun Luo looked at Yun Ji with teary eyes. She had just gone out for a bit, and her brother, who had never gotten mad at her, was now so fierce. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"You’re still mentioning Yin Yang. It’s because of Yin Yang that our family suffered such a big loss. Come with me to see Father." Yun Ji looked at Yun Luo in disappointment. This sister really caused too much trouble; it’d be best to marry her off as soon as possible, and luckily, it wasn’t long until the wedding.

For the first time, Yun Ji had this thought. His sister didn’t understand anything and always caused trouble.

Over at Xu Mumu’s side, she was quickly drawing on paper, and even called over Yin Yang to help her out. Yin Yang had studied these things too, so he understood what she was saying and was very handy with it.

The small courtyard was very quiet, with only the two of them busy working.

While Xu Mumu was busy over there, Professor Song thought of helping but his leg still hurt, and at his age, recovery wasn’t that quick.

Madam Chen glanced over several times at the courtyard, it was already late evening, the sky was dark, and they hadn’t come back yet. Weren’t they hungry?

"No need to look, let’s leave the food for them. We’ll eat first, we’d better not disturb them. If we break their train of thought now, it wouldn’t be worth it." Professor Song said gently.

"No wonder our Mumu has gotten thinner, turns out she’s too busy to even eat." Madam Chen said, starting to feel heartache. She mulled over the money in her purse; there was still quite a bit. When she came to the Imperial City, Xu Hai had slipped her a few tens of yuan, and after arriving, Xu Mumu gave her over a hundred, and Yin Yang gave her over a hundred as well. When she added it all together, it was quite a lot.

Tomorrow, she’ll go buy some good things; she must make sure to properly nourish her grandchildren.

"Yes, it does get really busy when you’re in the thick of it." Having heard Madam Chen, Professor Song also felt a bit of heartache, but research is like this after all.

Xu Mumu and Yin Yang were busy in the small courtyard, working until late into the night. Once they finally finished the blueprints, Xu Mumu felt totally exhausted, both tired and hungry. It had been a long time since she felt this way, not since the post-apocalypse days.

"Mumu, here’s a pack of cookies, eat some." Yin Yang sat down next to Xu Mumu, opening the bag of cookies and placing it in front of her, he also took one and started to eat.

Even their hands felt weak eating, having worked from afternoon till late at night, Yin Yang felt like his hands almost weren’t his anymore.

"Alright." Xu Mumu nodded, quickly grabbing the cookies to eat.

Finally, they weren’t hungry anymore, and the pack of cookies was finished between the two of them.

They carefully collected all the blueprints together. With these designs, improving those devices would be much easier.

Xu Mumu cautiously put the blueprints into her bag, a satisfied smile on her face. The equipment improved this time was quite complex. Once successfully upgraded, it would bring in a considerable amount of income again.

"Alright, let’s go back. Mrs. Liu should have kept our dinner warm." Yin Yang said gently, unexpectedly finding that his girlfriend was a workaholic too.

"Let’s go, let’s go. I was about to starve just now." At the mention of Mrs. Liu’s cooking, Xu Mumu immediately perked up, quickly pulling Yin Yang to leave.

The courtyard door was closed, and when they returned to the small courtyard, it was very quiet as everyone was asleep.

Xu Mumu went to put her things away while Yin Yang headed to the kitchen. There was still coal burning in the stove, and once he extinguished the fire, he brought the dishes out, just as Xu Mumu arrived.

The two of them then had a meal in the kitchen. Even though the food had been reheated, it still tasted quite good.

After eating their fill and washing up, Xu Mumu comfortably lay down on the bed. The bed was still the most comfortable. After doing so much work today, she was already tired and fell asleep shortly after lying down.

Xu Mumu was woken up by the crying of her little brother. When she woke up and checked the watch, it was already past ten o’clock.

Zzzzz... Xu Mumu, who hadn’t slept in for a long time, sighed. Now that she was awake, she couldn’t get back to sleep, so she decided to get up directly.

When Xu Mumu came out, she saw her little brother with a dirty face, lying sprawled on the dirt of the small garden, with a few leaves stuck to him, tears streaming down as he cried so sadly.
