18. Boiled eggs

Lu Shu woke up early on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year and started messing around in the kitchen at 6 o'clock. Then he just finished his work at 7 o'clock and went to school carrying a lot of things on his back.

Before leaving, he told Lu Xiaoyu: "The food is on the table. Get up and eat quickly. Go to bed after eating. Review the textbook I gave you carefully. I will come back at night to check randomly. If you are running around, I will give it to you."

Go back to the orphanage, do you hear me?"

Lu Xiaoyu lay on the bed and covered herself with the quilt without saying anything. Lu Shu asked repeatedly: "Did you hear that?"

"I heard...I'll get up and eat later," Lu Xiaoyu said reluctantly.

"It will get cold soon, so get up quickly!"

When Lu Xiaoyu got angry, he immediately sat up from the bed.

"The negative emotion value from Lu Xiaoyu, +299..."

Lu Shu's eyes lit up. It turns out that every day he wakes up this little girl, he can gain negative emotion points. Isn't this a huge profit?

The two of them depended on each other, and Lu Shu always felt that he should still fulfill some responsibilities of discipline. He was also worried that the little girl would develop too many bad habits in the future.

But now it seems that there is nothing wrong with Lu Xiaoyu's gluttony.

There was a reason why Lu Shu went to school early, he wanted to make money.

The school he went to was just across the street from the compound where he lived. Elementary school, junior high school, and high school were all in the same school, called Luocheng Foreign Language School.

Lu Shu goes to a stall every morning: selling boiled eggs.

Put an egg into boiling water and it will be fully cooked in 10 minutes. If you take it out 8 minutes in advance, it will be a runny egg. The boiled egg must be put into cold water immediately so that the skin will peel easily and the taste will be better.

Lu Shu's hard-boiled eggs are very particular, and when paired with his condiments, they are surprisingly delicious.

The recipe for the ingredients is nothing unusual. It consists of a small plate, half soy sauce, half vinegar, and a few drops of sesame oil.

When he first started setting up a stall in front of the school last year, only primary school students would come to try it. An egg only cost one yuan and fifty cents. It was not expensive and even primary school students could afford it.

Lu Shu could probably earn a few dozen yuan a day, which was enough to support his family.

Later, everyone knew that the eggs here were delicious, and some people would come to him to buy one or two eggs on their way to the breakfast restaurant. Some people also knew that Lu Shu was a work-study student, so they deliberately came to help him. Now this

Many people in the street knew that an orphan student like him made money to pay for his tuition.

It should be said that there are actually a lot of good-hearted people in this world, so Lu Shu's business has always been pretty good.

Today, the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, many adults have to go back to work, so he went to the intersection to sell. This area is an area where breakfast shops gather, and the urban management will not take care of it.

After selling out, he can still go to school quickly. If he closes the stall earlier, maybe he can put all the things back home before going to school. After all, it's a bit weird to go to school with these guys' things.

Of course, sometimes you really can't catch up, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Most of the students passing by on this road were his classmates, which was one of the reasons why everyone gradually stopped calling him.

Classes are not something that is clearly stated from the beginning about who wants to play with whom and who does not want to play with whom. It means that everyone has the choice to get together.

There is absolutely no way for millionaires to play with millionaires and join in the fun with billionaires. Maybe a billionaire's daily expenses are millions.

This example is also suitable for Lu Shu. Today's young people often spend hundreds or even thousands on a trip to a KTV or theme park. Lu Shu is really reluctant to spend such money. If he has money in the future, he will go and experience it, but he understands

Delay the enjoyment of this truth.

Lu Shu always felt that 'postponed enjoyment' was a good word.

The classmates were a little surprised at first when they saw him selling boiled eggs at the intersection. Lu Shu didn't feel any pressure. He relied on his ability to make money to support himself. There was no need to hold his head high in front of others.

Later, the students felt a little embarrassed and just passed by as if they hadn't seen him. They felt that it was inappropriate to say hello and it was inappropriate not to say hello, so they simply turned a blind eye.

Slowly, Lu Shu reached the edge.

So when everyone in the class group was discussing who was most likely to awaken, they thought of everyone except Lu Shu.

There were freshly boiled eggs in a basin in front of Lu Shu. There was a small foldable table with small plates, vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil on it. Next to the table was a stack of small plastic benches where customers could eat.

You can also take it away.

"Xiaoshu comes out so early to sell eggs," an aunt passing by said with a smile: "Here are two eggs, take them back and give them to my son. He hasn't gotten up yet. It would be great if he could be as diligent as you."

"Okay, two eggs," Lu Shu took off a plastic bag and put two eggs in it and gave them to the aunt: "Three yuan."

An egg costs 1.5 yuan, and the cost of going out for a day is about 50 yuan, with a guarantee of 1,500 yuan a month. If the business is good, it will be more. This is the living expenses of Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu.

You can't spend it all. You still have 500 yuan for rent and 100 yuan for water and electricity every month. If you save some money for tuition, you also have to consider the tuition fees after Lu Xiaoyu can go to school independently in the future.

In fact, Lu Xiaoyu is also very sensible and greedy, but she rarely asks for food. Even if Lu Shu doesn't buy snacks for her, she won't cry.

Lu Shu would buy some snacks from time to time to tease Lu Xiaoyu. Every morning, Lu Shu would leave two boiled eggs and ask Lu Xiaoyu to finish them, and Lu Xiaoyu also liked them.

Sometimes Lu Shu was too weak and fell ill, and Lu Xiaoyu would slowly pack up his things and cook eggs to sell. She was familiar with the process of cooking eggs and had seen Lu Shu do it countless times.

Maybe it’s because Lu Xiaoyu is too small and too cute. Some people will ask her, where is Lu Shu? As soon as she said that Lu Shu was sick, she had to sell eggs. She looked so pitiful that she could finish it in ten minutes.

Sold out dozens of eggs...

The two of them were like the snowmen they had piled up in the yard, one big and one small, keeping each other warm in the bone-chilling world.

For Lu Shu, being alone is too lonely, so lonely that when you want to talk, there is no one around you. So Lu Xiaoyu sneaked out of the orphanage to find him, and he felt very warm.

For Lu Xiaoyu, Lu Shu is the only person who cares about her future. No matter whether she eats well or not, she always feels that following Lu Shu, the future will be quite interesting.

Two miserable people don't actually suffer much in their hearts. This is the basis for their ability to continue to survive in this world.

Sometimes Lu Shu thinks, this is pretty good. They don’t need any parents, and they can live well by themselves. If there are still some cultivation techniques drawn in the lottery in the future, they will be given to Lu Xiaoyu, so that the two of them can

We can continue to be friends.
