Today, I'm Going to Spend the Billionaire's Hundred Million Again-Chapter 602: Oh My Gosh
The group wasn’t sure if Yu Xiaoqian would return for lunch, so they purposely waited an extra half-hour for her.
The four of them had just finished eating and cleaning up the dishes when Yu Xiaoqian walked in with two people.
Sun Lei Lei quickly asked, "Qianqian, have you had lunch yet?" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Yu Xiaoqian glanced at the empty table, "Whether I ate or not, you weren’t going to wait for me, so why ask?"
After speaking, Yu Xiaoqian called the two to move the piano from under the eaves. Before they could, Yu Xiaoqian asked Luo Cheng for the You Yuan funding bank card. Luo Cheng handed it to her directly and then pulled Zhao Junxi and Rong Qingqing out to the yard, clearly not wanting to be in the same place as Yu Xiaoqian.
Yu Xiaoqian came back late herself; the group waited half an hour for her. Everyone was busy all morning and was hungry. Were they really supposed to wait indefinitely for Yu Xiaoqian, who went out for who knows what, to come back before eating?
Did she really think she was a princess?
The three of them went into the yard and discussed climbing the tree to pick persimmons. The persimmons were frosty on the tree and would rot once they fell; using sticks to poke them down wasn’t an option.
"I’ll go!" Zhao Junxi volunteered, "I’m tall, with long arms and legs."
Before Zhao Junxi could grab an apron, a group of children’s voices suddenly came from the entrance.
"Is anyone home? We’re here to see Sister Rong."
Outside the main gate, a group of little kids curiously peeked inside, and even the principal was with them.
"Come on in," Luo Cheng waved at the children, and the three of them went out to greet them.
"These are the kids from our school. They found out that Mr. Shen and Miss Rong donated money and buildings to our school, so they all came here to personally thank Miss Rong," the principal smiled, "A whole group of them met along the way."
The principal pointed to the items the children brought, saying, "Every household grows persimmon trees; persimmons are one of our local specialties. Everyone had the same idea to bring you fresh persimmons and dried persimmon cakes. The kids met along the way and saw they all brought the same, so some ran back home to swap for other things."
Fresh persimmons don’t last long and spoil easily, while dried persimmon cakes last longer but can also be too much to eat if you have too many. People who had other things to give went home to exchange them.
Even the basket the principal brought was half fresh persimmons and half persimmon cakes.
Everyone had the same thought.
"Sister Rong, thank you and big brother. These are grown by our own family, they’re not worth much, please don’t mind," a bold little boy said as he approached Rong Qingqing, "Our persimmons are really sweet!"
"Sister Rong, our persimmons are also very sweet. Grandma says persimmons are nutritious, and persimmon cakes can be stored and eaten slowly," another little girl said.
"Sister Rong, now we’ll have lots of books to read, thank you. The principal said you and big brother are good people; we should remember you both and learn from you when we grow up," the bold little boy said.
The children varied in age; the older ones seemed about ten years old, while the younger ones were around six or seven.
"Sister Rong, I saw everyone giving you persimmons, so I went home to exchange them for peanuts. These were dried by my grandma herself, they’re delicious."
"I also brought some mushrooms my brother, sister, and I collected from the mountains. They’ve been dried and stored; grandpa and grandma checked them, and they’re all edible. They make great soup."
