Even though she trotted all the way, the hot weather still couldn't stop the creamy ice cream from dripping.
When I got home, it had melted quite a bit and the cream ice cream had shrunk to only two-thirds of its original size.
Lu Qingtian stood in the yard and shouted towards the second floor, "Lailai, come down quickly, I brought you cream ice cream, run faster, it's about to melt."
Jiang Lai heard the sound and ran down from the second floor, "Coming, coming, coming."
"Why did it turn into this?" Jiang Lai was distressed. He hurriedly went to the kitchen to get a bowl, put the cream ice cream in it, and ate it with a spoon.
"This is cream ice cream, it's so delicious."
Jiang Lai started to cry while eating.
"Wow, Qingtian, you are so kind. You are nicer to me than my mother. When I was at home, my mother would only buy Jiang Jun a popsicle and let him eat it by himself. I was drooling as I watched.
My mother wouldn't give me anything to eat and she would scold me for being greedy.
This is the first time in my life that I have eaten cream ice cream. Woohoo, it’s so sweet and so delicious.”
Jiang Lai was holding a bowl, grinning widely, crying and laughing.
Seeing Lu Qingtian dumbfounded, and not caring about running back all the way, her body was sweaty and sticky, she hugged Jiang Lai and patted Jiang Lai's back to comfort her.
"Good boy, don't cry anymore. We have money now and can eat whatever we want. Isn't it that we work so hard to make money just to enjoy life?"
From now on, we no longer have to look at other people's faces to live our lives. We can buy whatever we want.
From now on, each of us will buy two of these cream ice creams, eat one and throw one away, eh, just for fun."
Jiang Lai was amused by her description, "How can you play with it like this? No... don't throw it away, it's a waste, both of them are in my mouth."
"Okay, okay, put both sticks in your mouth, and don't give Jiang Jun a bite, just let him watch and drool."
Jiang Lai, who had been crying very sadly just now, smiled like a hen when he thought about that scene.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a cane hitting the ground at the kitchen door.
"I heard that some people are so crazy that they eat one stick of ice cream and throw one away. In that case, let's talk about raising the rent?"
Lu Qingtian stuck out her tongue and hurriedly helped the old lady, "Grandma Wan, I'm not just kidding, why do you take it seriously? Besides, what kind of family do we have? How dare you eat ice cream and throw away one?"
.I was just talking about it, but I didn’t really do it.”
"Humph!" Grandma Wan proudly said a single syllable from her nose.
Jiang Lai came to his senses and quickly put the bowl on the chopping board, came over and held Grandma Wan's other arm, "Grandma Wan, even if we really bought two ice cream sticks each, we would definitely bring one back for you. How is that possible?
I would throw one away, what a waste."
"This is what you said. If so, then you owe me a cream ice cream at noon today. Pay me back as soon as possible." Grandma Wan took out her arms and walked out. The corners of her mouth that had been slumped just turned.
If it goes too far, it will stick up.
The two girls looked at each other, not knowing why they owed someone an ice cream while talking.
Fortunately, the debt is not big, so I just want to make the old lady happy.
At noon the next day, Lu Qingtian went to eat rolled cold skin again. As soon as he arrived, he surrounded Aunt Bao and asked, "How are you? Are you here again?"
Aunt Bao shook her head, "No."
Lu Qingtian thought about it and realized that this matter really couldn't be rushed.
"Today, a little girl came to the school gate to make a fuss, saying that someone had taken her place and got a higher spot. She cried so hard that she burst into tears.
Unfortunately, I was kicked out by the school's dean and security guards.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, that little girl said she has a nose and eyes, I’m afraid it’s true.”
Lu Qingtian became energetic as soon as he heard the gossip, "What's going on? Aunt Bao will tell you."
"This little girl was admitted to the first high school, but she did not receive the notification. She studied for another year and took the technical secondary school entrance exam. However, when she was admitted to the technical secondary school, she was told that her student status file had been taken away by the first high school.
She didn't know what was going on, so she could only go to her junior high school teacher's house to cry every day, and would even kneel down and kowtow to beg others to tell her what was going on.
Once her class teacher let it slip that her notice had been taken to the first grade of high school by someone else."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's so miserable. I don't know anyone who is so wicked. She wants to go to school and robs others if she can't pass the exam. This girl has worked hard for nine years and ended up making a wedding dress for others." Lu Qingtian sighed while eating.
Aunt Bao thought for a while, "It seems that the wicked ghost is called Wan'er or Pen'er, I can't remember clearly."
Lu Qingtian shook his head, how could someone call him such a name?
Wait, Wan'er, Lu Waner.
"Aunt Bao, is that wicked guy's surname Lu, or is his name Lu Wan'er?" Lu Qingtian excitedly held Aunt Bao's arm and shook it.
"There were...there were a lot of students at that time, so I listened for a while, but didn't catch it clearly. If you want to know, wait until someone comes back next time, and Aunt Bao will help you ask.
Lu Qingtian had always been curious about how Lu Waner got into the first grade of high school with such bad grades.
I didn’t expect that, I didn’t expect that this was how I passed the exam.
No wonder Xu Xiaorou has been frequently going to the family home to give gifts recently. She seems to be anxious to settle this matter.
I don’t know if Lu Zhenguo knew about it.
Is this Lu Waner Lu Zhenguo’s daughter?
Does Xu Xiaorou have a concubine?
Lu Qingtian felt like he was shrouded in fog and couldn't see the truth clearly.
She decided to seize the matter at hand first, be an enthusiastic citizen, and help the poor man who was substituted into the school.
After Lu Qingtian finished eating her cold rolls, she secretly put the money under the water bowl while Aunt Bao wasn't paying attention.
I was thinking that I still owe the old landlady a cream ice cream.
Lu Qingtian went to the family home to find money for the aunt to buy three sticks of cream ice cream.
Aunt Qian saw that she had bought a lot this time, so she generously gave her a plastic bag, put three ice cream sticks in it, and put a thick layer of ice cubes on top of the ice cream so that it would not melt when she got home.
Isn't this the simplified version of the ice pack that came later? The wisdom of the people is indeed infinite.
She trotted back, and the ice cream only softened slightly, not melting at all.
So the three people moved three small mats and sat in rows under the banyan tree to eat ice cream.
“It’s so delicious.”
"It didn't melt at all this time."
"This cream is as dense as a cloud."
The two little girls sighed while eating. Grandma Wan just ate alone without saying a word.
"I'll take out my ice cream bag and ice cream sticks later and throw them away." After finishing speaking, Grandma Wan patted her butt and went back to take a nap.
"This old lady is getting more and more bossy." Lu Qingtian said with a pout.
"Hey, it's just a matter of convenience. Our bags are going to be thrown away later anyway. Give me yours after you finish eating, and I'll throw them away together." Jiang Lai said nonchalantly.
