199 Chapter 198, Was On The Agenda
“Yuanyuan got 12th place in the exam, the teacher praised her.” Before Ji Yuanyuan could say anything, Yang Jingyi said proudly.
Her expression was as if she was the one being praised.
Ji Zi’ang slapped his thigh excitedly. “Well done!”
Yang Jingyi looked at Ji Ziang strangely. “What well done?”
“My Mom said that as long as the three of us do well in our exams, we’ll buy a color TV set for our family before the New Year. Both Yuanyuan and I have improved in our exams. Big Brother will definitely still be number one, right? We’ll definitely get this TV set.”
As he spoke, he looked at Ji Zixuan.
Ji Zixuan nodded. “Yes.”
Ji Zi’ang held one person in each hand and said impatiently, “Hurry up and go home. Tell mom that we’ll buy it tomorrow.”
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan heartlessly broke her fantasy. “Uncle will be getting married in a few days. Mom must be busy with his wedding. I’m afraid she won’t have time to buy a TV set.”
Li Lei’s wedding date had been set a long time ago. It was on the 16th of December. There were only a few days left, so there were many things to prepare!
Hearing this, the smile on Ji Zi’ang’s face disappeared in an instant.
“But…” After a long time, nothing come out.
Seeing Ji Zi’ang’s disappointed look, Yang Jingyi quickly said, “Brother Zi’ang, you can watch TV at my house. My house also has TV.”
When Yang Jingyi said this, Ji Zi’ang’s expression became a little awkward.
Yang Jingyi’s father was so fierce, he did not want to go.
However, looking at Yang Jingyi’s expectant eyes, he could not say no. He could only look at Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zixuan for help.
“Yang Jingyi, how did you do this time?” Ji Zixuan quickly changed the topic and asked about Yang Jingyi’s results.
Speaking of this, Yang Jingyi was quite happy. “I improved this time and got 38th in the class!”
“If I remember correctly, your class has a total of 48 students, right?” Ji Zixuan looked at Ji Yuanyuan and asked.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded. “Yes, a total of 48 people.”
“38th, that means you’re ranked 11th from the bottom! Last time, you were ranked 6th from the bottom. This time, you’re ranked 11th from the bottom. You’ve made progress by five places!” Ji Zixuan said.
“That’s right. I’ve improved by five places. It’s all thanks to Yuanyuan. She’s always lecturing me.” Yang Jingyi went up and hugged Ji Yuanyuan’s arm. “Yuanyuan, you’re so good to me!”
Ji Zixuan heard this and let out a long sigh.
He could tell that his sister had been working hard to help Yang Jingyi with her tutoring. However, she had only gone from the 6th from the bottom to the 11th from the bottom.
Yang Jingyi, on the other hand, actually felt very content!
He did not know what to say.
Ji Zi’ang was also looking at Yang Jingyi as if he was looking at a fool.
He seemed to have forgotten that just a year ago, his exam results were also the last in the class.
Only Ji Yuanyuan reached out to pat Yang Jingyi’s arm. She encouraged her, “You can do it. You’re already very good. You’re already one year younger than them and save one year time of study. Let’s continue to work hard next semester and strive to get better every time!”
Yang Jingyi nodded foolishly, “Yes, yes!”
On the way, they met Hu Chunli, who was picking Yang Jingyi up from school.
Hu Chunli seemed to have become more beautiful than before.
In the December weather, she was wearing a black woolen coat and a red scarf around her neck.
Her hair was permed into big waves, she put on make up, and her lips were painted with lipstick that was about the same color as the scarf.
She was wearing a pair of black high heels, which made a clicking sound when she stepped on the ground.
Her fashionable dress attracted the attention of the people around her.
However, she seemed to turn a blind eye to it. After picking Yang Jingyi up, she took off the scarf on her neck and wrapped it around Yang Jingyi’s neck. “Are you cold?”
Yang Jingyi shook her head and hugged Hu Chunli’s arm intimately.
Ever since that incident, Yang Jingyi had also changed.
She became more dependent on Hu Chunli.
The Ji Yuanyuan siblings politely greeted Hu Chunli.
“Hello, Auntie Hu!”
Hu Chunli held Yang Jingyi’s hand and waved at the siblings. “It’s cold outside. You should hurry home too.”
After greeting them, Hu Chunli left with Yang Jingyi. Ji Yuanyuan and the siblings went to Li Xu’s shop.
When the three of them went over, Li Xu was making a phone call.
“Alright, since he invited you, you should go with him. You can take care of him on the way. We can both rest assured.”
When Li Xu saw that the three children had returned, she immediately said, “That’s it then. The children are back. I have to cook for them. What did want to say? Do you think the phone bill is free? You’ll be back tomorrow anyway, can’t you say them tomorrow?”
As she spoke, Li Xu directly hung up the phone.
Ji Yuanyuan’s eyes lit up. “Is it Aunty? Aunty will be back tomorrow?”
Li Xu smiled and nodded. “Yes, not only your Aunty, but also your brother Mu Cheng. Are you happy?”
Hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan pursed her lips and nodded with a smile.
Looking at her daughter’s appearance, Li Xu shook her head somewhat helplessly.
“Let’s go. I’ll cook for you guys when we get home. Have you guys gotten your test papers and awards?” As Li Xu spoke, she had already taken off her apron, led the children out, and locked the shop door.
“Mom, I got fifth place and Yuanyuan 12th place this time. We’ve all improved a lot. When are we going to buy a color TV?” Ji Zi’ang asked with a face full of anticipation.
“Awesome!” Li Xu reached out and patted ji Ziang’s head. “Let’s discuss it when your Dad comes back tonight.”
Seeing that Li Xu did not refuse, Ji Zi’ang winked at Ji Yuanyuan.
As the new year was approaching, Zhang Kun came home a lot earlier than before.
“Buy, we’ll buy it tomorrow!” Zhang Kun looked at the three children’s awards and said excitedly.
He stood up and told Li Xu, “Go and make some paste. I’ll glue the certificates on the wall.”
Li Xu looked at Zhang Kun and couldn’t help but laugh. “Okay, I’ll make it!”
Li Xu fiddled in the kitchen for a while and soon brought a bowl of paste.
Zhang Kun stepped on the stool and quickly pasted the five certificates on the wall.
Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang had two certificates. One was for Straight A Students and the other was for study.
Ji Yuanyuan only had one awards for improvement!
Looking at the five awards on the wall, Zhang Kun nodded in satisfaction. “The three of you continue to work hard and try to cover this wall!”
Since Zhang Kun agreed, the three children were looking forward to it, and they had all agreed before.
Even though they had been so busy these past few days, Li Xu immediately put the matter of buying a color TV on her schedule.
The next day was not the weekend, so Zhang Kun still had to go to work. However, from nine to ten in the morning, Zhang Kun was free, so he could go out.
At this time, the employees had already finished their breakfast, and it was not yet time to prepare lunch.
Even if he was in the unit, he was idle.
As long as it was not too frequent, the leaders did not care much if he went out to do some things.
