Indecisive Survival Guide

Early in the morning, Lu Qianqian, who was carrying a schoolbag, and Cui Yingxiong embarked on a hawker journey.In order to save money, they did not choose to take the bus but chose to ride.

"Damn girl, why haven't you arrived yet?" Cui Yingxiong, who had been riding for more than an hour, impatiently wiped the sweat from his forehead. The two rice balls he ate in the morning were not enough for him who was growing up. Hungry.

Lu Qianqian, who was also exhausted, gritted his teeth and insisted, "Come on, according to the map, we have already ridden more than half, and we will be there in about half an hour. I heard from the uncle at the commissary that there is a noodle shop there that is very delicious." It's delicious, I'll treat you to it later!"

Cui Yingxiong, who originally learned that it would take more than half an hour, couldn't help regretting, but after hearing that there are noodles with fried sauce, he instantly felt full of energy and could ride for another half an hour.

"Ah, damn girl, why don't you eat?" Cui Yingxiong, who was feasting on noodles with fried sauce, looked at Lu Qianqian who was empty in front of him and asked loudly.

"A bowl of Jajangmyeon costs [-] won. Now I have a total of [-] won. After buying it, I only have [-] won left. In order to make more money, I will stop eating." Lu Qianqian said as he spoke. He swallowed.To be honest, Cui's mother's food is not delicious, but compared with her food, this noodle is delicious in the world.

Cui Yingxiong, who always thought it was nothing to bully his sister, suddenly felt guilty. He took out the two thousand won that had been crumpled a long time ago from his pocket, and said angrily, "Here, take it and buy a bowl, my Cui Yingxiong's. My sister can't starve to death!"

Unexpectedly, Lu Qianqian grinned at the corner of his mouth, "It's okay, I'm not hungry. With these two thousand won, we can buy more stationery. Then I'll give you a share."

Cui Yingxiong looked at Lu Qianqian who was carefully flattening the won, and curled his lips, "Who cares about your share, just deduct it to death! How dare you do business like others with only [-] won!"

However, after all, he still gave Lu Qianqian some fried noodles from his own bowl.Although there was less noodles in his mouth, he felt that the leftover noodles were more delicious.

"Beautiful sister, how do you approve this medium pen?" Lu Qianqian's eyes focused on the pencil very precisely. One reason is that they can only buy the cheapest pencil because they don't have enough funds, and the other reason is because the consumption of pencils is huge.

"Oh, whose child is this? The mouth is so sweet!" The aunt who was over [-] years old looked at Lu Qianqian who was wearing a student uniform and smiled. , if you want it, then I will give you seventy won."

Although she praised Lu Qianqian, the profit-seeking nature of the businessman still made her raise the price a bit.Cui Yingxiong, who had already heard Lu Qianqian's offer, was about to explode, but was held back by Lu Qianqian's backhand.

"Beautiful sister, please give me a little cheaper. In order to treat my sick father, the family owed a lot of money, but in the end my father still left. It is really hard for my mother to work hard to maintain this family alone. We want to help my mother reduce the burden. , That's why I wanted to buy some pens to sell." Lu Qianqian began to sell miserably without any psychological burden.

Cui Yingxiong's eyes widened in disbelief. Is this still the Cui Xin'ai who is very resentful when others talk about her family situation?She won't be sick in the head, will she? !

Lu Qianqian: Compared with survival, face is nothing!

After listening to Lu Qianqian's remarks, Auntie rarely looked at the two of them seriously.Although the boys are full of ruffian, the little wounds and scars of the girls are the result of frequent housework.Hey, people are like this, obviously they are not going well, but they still can't see the suffering in the world.

"For the sake of your filial piety at such a young age, I will give you 55 pens. Now, where are they all? You can count how many you want." The aunt moved towards the place where the pencils were placed. Nuzui, "By the way, the pile at the door is unnecessary. If you need anything, you can pick and take it away."

"Old Wang, Xiao Zhao, are those at your door also thrown away as trash? If so, let these two children pick things up!" The enthusiastic aunt stood at the door of the shop and shouted at the top of her voice.

"No, just pick it up!"

"Pick it up, pick it up, you don't want it anyway!"

Lu Qianqian was very excited. Although they were all unnecessary, they were all free, "Thank you pretty sister, we will collect the garbage later!"

Seeing this, Cui Yingxiong, who had been awkward all the time, followed suit and said, thank you.

As expected, Lu Qianqian fulfilled her promise. After picking out the items, she and Cui Yingxiong ran several times before throwing away the garbage in the three stores. Before leaving, they also cleaned the store entrances.

"Hey, are you still coming? If you come, I'll keep the trash for you." Seeing that Lu Qianqian was about to leave, the aunt of the stationery store asked loudly.

Hearing that it was a good thing, Lu Qianqian suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Come on, we will come next Saturday, thank you pretty sister!"

Carrying heavy schoolbags on their backs, the two headed to the nearest park as planned. Although Cui Yingxiong's stomach was already singing empty plans, he did not ask for food this time.

In the park, there are parents bringing their children to play everywhere.Cui Yingxiong couldn't take his eyes off the picture of a pair of young parents carefully caring for their young son playing on the slide. In fact, he had a happy childhood before his father got sick.Thinking about it this way, Cui Xin'ai is actually quite unlucky to be his sister.He never enjoyed his father's love in his life, but moved around because of debt avoidance.

Before Cui Yingxiong's sympathy began to flood, Lu Qianqian beckoned him to bring the backpack over and started setting up a stall.First spread the curtains picked up from the garbage dump on the ground, and then she began to put them on, pencil by pencil.Some pencils that look better, she also wrapped them in the wrapping paper she picked up, which looked extraordinarily high-end.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, Lu Qianqian and Cui Yingxiong yelled for a long time, but very few people bought it.Looking at the drawing paper picked up in the backpack that had been discarded because it had been soaked in water, Lu Qianqian suddenly had an idea.

After sharpening a pencil, she lay down on the ground and began to draw. Cui Yingxiong, who wanted to stop him, looked at what she had drawn and closed his mouth.

"Little brother, this is for you." Although he is not a professional brush, Lu Qianqian still used a pencil to draw a good effect.On the drawing paper, a cartoonized family is playing happily.

Although it is cartoonized, the love in the eyes of the young parents and the joy in the eyes of the children are well portrayed, and the characteristics of the characters are captured very accurately.As for the traces soaked in water, she subtly turned them into a background of vines and flowers with a brush.

"Wow! Mom, mom, this is me, this is you, this is dad!" The little boy was very happy, "Thank you pretty sister! Mom, I want to draw too!"

"Oh, how much is this? Let's give you the money." The young parents were a little embarrassed, how could they take the children's things for nothing?

"Auntie, I don't need money for this one. I gave it to my younger brother." Lu Qianqian shook her head and refused, "But if my younger brother wants to draw, I have paper and pens. It only costs two hundred won, and I can also teach my younger brother. draw."

"Mom, mom, I want to draw! I want to draw you and dad." Hearing that he could draw, the little boy suddenly became excited, the slide stopped sliding, and he dragged his mother to leave.

As long as two hundred won, it is indeed not expensive.It costs two hundred to buy an ice cream for the child, and she also teaches the child to draw.Just like that, Lu Qianqian's stall ushered in its first business.

People have a herd mentality, especially children, and when they see what other people have, they have to follow suit.After a while, Lu Qianqian's stall was crowded with people, and those pencils wrapped in wrapping paper were sold for a high price of [-] won.

Cui Yingxiong, who was in charge of collecting money, had never found mathematics so useful. Looking at Lu Qianqian who was lying on the ground and carefully guiding the children to draw, he stuffed money into the backpack faster.

At noon, while the children were going back to eat and rest, Lu Qianqian, who was finally free, generously bought two rice balls with meat, and the two of them devoured them.

"Die, Xin Ai, are we still in this park this afternoon?" Cui Yingxiong, who originally wanted to call her a dead girl, suddenly changed his words.

Faced with Cui Yingxiong's change of words, Lu Qianqian once again lamented the greatness of money, "I won't be in this park this afternoon, half of our pens have been sold, and this park has no consumption power. I just inquired about it. There is a lively commercial street not far from here, we can try it there."

"Well, let's go now."

Cui Yingxiong, who had tasted the sweetness of making money, wiped his mouth and started to pack his things.Lu Qianqian was also full of energy, and the brother and sister who had fallen into Qian's eye set off towards the commercial street on their bicycles that rang without the horn.

Although the flow of people in the commercial street is relatively large, there are not many people who can stop and have time to learn to draw. On the contrary, there are more people who buy pencils directly.Until the sun was about to set, Lu Qianqian and Cui Yingxiong finally sold all the pencils they had entered.

Back home, the two were naturally beaten and scolded by Cui's mother, but the two who had the same little secret lowered their heads and snickered.Cui's mother, who was tired from beating and scolding, threw the guest's leftovers to the two and went back to her room to rest.

Hearing the snoring sound coming from Cui's mother's room, Cui Yingxiong quickly poured out all the money in the schoolbag, and the brother and sister stroked the coins one by one like thieves.

"My side is five thousand four hundred won."

"This is [-] won for me, and the cost of selling it was [-] won. We made a total of [-] won." Lu Qianqian concluded.

"If we bring food from home and don't eat those two rice balls, then we will have earned [-] won." Cui Yingxiong, who has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, was a little upset when he saw the odd numbers.

Thinking of Cui's mother's craftsmanship, Lu Qianqian shook her head and rejected the terrible idea of ​​bringing rice.However, it is not a solution to always eat the meals cooked by Cui's mother, and if she is asked to cook, she is not willing to stay in the kitchen all day, it is time to find a way.
