Chapter 36 -36: Washing Dishes for the Big Shot_1

After the meal, Xia Ningxing took the initiative to pick up the dishes, standing up like a virtuous and well-behaved child. Her eyes, watery and innocent, blinked as she sensibly said, “Lu, I’m going to wash the dishes.”

“I can do the washing,” Lu Tingli suddenly rose, walked over to her, bent down, and snatched the dishes from her hands.

Although using children as labor was normal in those days, he, a man who had returned from the new century, still believed that such chores ought to be done by adults.

After he took the dishes away, Xia Ningxing also came back to her senses, her face cradled in her hands, her eyes watery and sparkling as she spared no effort to sing his praises, “Lu, you’re so nice! When you grow up, you’re definitely going to be a great man for a family to have around the house!”

Hearing this, Lu Tingli’s thin lips twitched violently, and his eyelids couldn’t stop fluttering. He turned back with an expressionless face and retorted, “…you think too much. I’m just worried you might break my family’s dishes.”

This guy was the type to climb up a pole at the slightest encouragement and to start a dye shop with just a bit of color thrown his way—a real bootlicker!

“…”

“It’s getting late; you should head home, or your mother and brothers will start worrying,” Lu Tingli advised, glancing at the sky.

“Okay then, goodbye, Lu,” Bao’er said, leaving the yard, which instantly fell silent.

As the sun set, Mrs. Xia and her five sons returned on a tricycle.

“Mom! Brothers!” Xia Ningxing, originally feeding the chickens in the yard, scattered all the rice in her hand and then ran to meet them with her little short legs, all smiles, “How was business today?”

“Not bad, more than two hundred yuan,” Mrs. Xia said, beaming with joy.

“Mom, you’re amazing!” After blowing her share of rainbow farts, Xia Ningxing finally got to the point, “Dear Mom, I heard that the elementary school registration starts tomorrow!”

She hadn’t forgotten about her brothers needing to go to school.

Upon hearing this, all five brothers instantly lifted their heads, eyes wide, collectively looking at Mrs. Xia with eyes full of hope and trepidation.

Mrs. Xia acted as if she hadn’t noticed, smiling and stroking her head, “Bao’er will be in fourth grade when school starts, just continue on; there’s no need to re-register.”

“Mom, I’m talking about my brothers.” Xia Ningxing could clearly see Mrs. Xia was playing dumb.

Mrs. Xia casually said, “Oh… there’s no need for them to go to school.”

Even though their family’s financial situation had improved, she had never considered sending the five rascals to school. The boys could just work on the farm at home. What was the point of going to school and wasting money?
