The control group dressed as the heroine

"I said why do you have a sad face? I kindly help you with this, aren't you moved? You didn't pass the exam and failed the exam, right?"

The weather has been too cold for the past two days to go out to set up a stall, and the students from the Polytechnic University almost left.There were almost no people in the university town outside, so Zhou Xiaonian didn't go to set up a stall.

He was bored in the house, after playing with his mobile phone upside down.When he got up today, thinking that his younger sister would come over later, he tidied up the house.After tidying up in the living room, looking at the small bed that was placed on the small balcony, it obviously felt a bit cramped.In the house, he stood and thought for a long time, and finally began to redesign the small living room, re-moving the sofa and coffee table in the living room.

After removing the two small sofas placed separately around the coffee table, the area of ​​the entire living room increased by more than two meters.So he moved the long sofa and coffee table out by more than two meters, and then put Xiao Ai's small bed directly into the living room.As for the empty balcony, he lifted the two heavy and scary single sofas to the balcony and placed them side by side, so that Xiao Ai could put the clothes she changed at night and so on.

After doing this, he had a whimsical idea, and immediately went outside to buy a thin curtain, two small hooks and a small string.A curtain was made for Xiaoai's bed to separate her bed from the balcony.

He thought that after doing this, Xiao Ai would be very happy and excited when Xiao Ai came back.It turned out that as soon as she came in, after greeting her, she sat on the sofa weakly.It seemed that he hadn't found his masterpiece at all, so Zhou Xiaonian couldn't help but feel a little lost, so he guessed wildly.

As long as you are a student, the happiest thing is to have a holiday, and the saddest thing is definitely not doing well in the exam.So when Zhou Xiaonian thought about it, the little girl who felt weak must have failed the exam.

"If you really fail the exam, it's okay. We'll spend money to retake the exam. Don't worry, little girl, no matter how many subjects you fail, no matter how much money you need, I will give it to you."

After paying off all the debts and saving another fifteen thousand yuan, Brother Zhou is full of pride.

Zhou Xiaoai looked up at him, and finally responded sullenly: "I didn't fail the course, I just thought that this holiday is so long, more than 40 days, and I feel a little unhappy."

"..." How could he still be unhappy after a long vacation? Zhou Xiaonian couldn't understand what she was thinking at all. He looked at his little sister speechlessly.

"..." Zhou Xiaoai knew that she was not in the right mood, so she tried her best to smile.Then he stood up immediately and walked towards his temporary hut.

"Brother, you put my bed in! I didn't expect to move out the two small sofas to free up so much space. It's really great."

"Hmm!" Seeing that she finally noticed what he did, Zhou Xiaonian farted, and the expression on his face gradually improved.

"This curtain is also good. Pull it off during the day and close it at night. And you didn't nail the nails on the wall, you used hooks that can stick to it. Brother, you really—"

The familiar cell phone ringtone suddenly rang at this moment.Zhou Xiaonian, who was waiting for Zhou Xiaoai's praise, didn't even have a reaction, so Zhou Xiaoai picked up the mobile phone on the table and quickly ran to the hut.

"Brother, I'll answer the phone first!" Zhou Xiaoai, who hurried into the hut, closed the door with a bang.

Zhou Xiaonian was a little dazed, he looked sideways at the door which was slammed shut.Hearing the voice of his own little sister who suddenly became happy inside, he remembered it belatedly.Before he came to the city of ice, one night the younger sister told him about his personal emotional problems on the phone.

"It turned out to be a relationship." Now she abnormally disliked the long vacation, and she was unexpectedly depressed.Everything has a reason.

Zhou Xiaonian felt a little melancholy, he had a rare feeling of awkwardness when a kind father suddenly found out that his daughter had a relationship.He felt that Xiao Ai was too young, and felt that she should focus on her studies now.But after living near the university town for so long, I watched young men and women go out in pairs every day.In fact, he also knew that his idea might be a bit old and funny.

"You have already checked in and entered the station. Didn't you say to call me as soon as you got off the bus? How did it become like this now? Forget it. I don't remember villains, so I don't care about you. Let me see, it's not right now. At one o'clock, your flight at [-]:[-] means that you still have a lot of time. I see that there are a lot of stores over there, so go in and have something to eat. I'll eat, you go in quickly, I'll take a look inside Is your stuff good—"

Zhou Xiaoai's phone calls lasted for a long time, and Zhou Xiaonian, who was away at first, paid attention to her.It was later discovered that the person who called her seemed to be a female voice.Brother Zhou felt that there should be a substitution, so he felt that it didn't matter.So I got up and went to the kitchen and turned around casually, planning to make some lunch for the two of them.

He was making his best pasta in it, half an hour later.After he slowly fried two dishes, he finally made the noodles.Zhou Xiaoai, who had been on the phone for nearly an hour, walked out slowly and cheerfully.

"It's over." Seeing that she was happy, her complexion was more than a little bit better than before.Zhou Xiaonian began to gossip unconsciously: "Who did you call and why are you so happy after calling for so long?"

"Hey, you know Guo Ying." Seeing that he was serving the dishes, Zhou Xiaoai acted immediately, and immediately ran to the kitchen to get the chopsticks to serve the bowls: "She flew home at 02:30 today, and she finished the inspection just now. Ticket is boring by herself, so I stayed with her for a while longer."

"Oh—it's Guo Ying!" Zhou Xiaonian felt that she was not telling the truth, and felt that her act of rushing to the small room as soon as she picked up the phone was definitely not answering a call from a simple good friend.But seeing that she didn't tell the truth, Brother Zhou smiled indifferently and stopped pressing her.

The two sat together to eat, and after finishing the simple lunch, Brother Zhou, who had cooked the meal, sat down with great effort.On the other hand, Zhou Xiaoai tidied up quickly, and waited for the washing to clean up all the things that should be washed and wiped.After washing her hands, Zhou Xiaoai strode to the living room.Then he sat down next to Big Brother Zhou, and slumped on the sofa lazily like him.

"Brother, thank you for helping me make the curtains and the small room, I like it very much."

After sitting for a long time, Zhou Xiaoai turned sideways.Looking at the small curtain hanging in the living room, looking at the two small sofas side by side over there, he thanked Zhou Xiaonian.

"Hey, it's okay, it should be."

Zhou Xiaonian has always hoped that she would like everything he has done, and has been secretly waiting for her thanks.But after she said her thank you so seriously, he suddenly felt embarrassed.

"You, what is that plastic bag you are carrying?" The shy Brother Zhou sat up from the sofa, straightened up and began to find nothing to say.

"If you don't tell me, I'll forget about it." After being reminded by him, Zhou Xiaoai remembered those things.She stood up immediately, and brought in the handbag and large plastic bag that had been placed on the ground when she came in.

Put the plastic bag on the coffee table, and lift your luggage to the small sofa on the balcony.Then Zhou Xiaoai, who returned to the sofa, began to explain: "Yesterday, I accompanied Yingying to the supermarket to buy souvenirs from the ice market, and she bought some. I found the things to be good, so I bought some myself."

Zhou Xiaonian opened the plastic bag and saw that there were some candies, jerky, tea leaves, etc. inside, and he couldn't help being curious: "Is this what we want to eat? It doesn't feel like it."

These things are special products of Bingshi, looking at the obvious Bingshi words on the packaging, Zhou Xiaonian became suspicious: "You don't mean to take them—"

"Yes, I want to send them to my mother. It will be the New Year in half a month, and I have to express it." The main reason is that Zhou's mother has been a little bit irritated these days. After all, she is her daughter, and she is still alive There is a task to let the other party enjoy their old age in peace.So Zhou Xiaoai felt that it was time to treat her better, so as not to push her too hard.

Zhou Xiaonian became silent, and he finally said after a long time: "That's right, I'll transfer some money to her when I find time."

"Give her a little less, just make sense. You know, when you give her money, she is reluctant to eat it and use it, and it ends up in someone else's hands. So instead of this, you might as well save the money until she really Give it to her when she needs it."

The two of them knew who "he" Zhou Xiaoai was talking about.Zhou Xiaonian thought about it seriously, and finally nodded after a long time: "Actually, I thought so too. Then I'll give her less money after the Chinese New Year. She spends more money during the Chinese New Year. I will give it to her. She has money on hand." It will be more generous. This way she will not be too embarrassed when she goes to see her grandparents at her uncle's house. And I have transferred the money, no matter how much it is transferred, she can feel more at ease."

Zhou Xiaoai nodded, she didn't ask how much Brother Zhou was going to turn around.But looking at the troubled weather in the ice market, Zhou Xiaoai's mind began to be filled with ideas of how to make money.

"Setting up a stall here at the school is no longer realistic." With her hands resting on her chin, Zhou Xiaoai rarely thought.

"Yeah, the students are almost gone. It's impossible to do business outside now." Zhou Xiaonian became upset when he heard her words, he bent down and put his elbows on his knees.Maintaining the same posture as Zhou Xiaoai, she also began to meditate.

"If this is in a small town, we can sell couplets or something. But in the city, many people don't seem to post couplets, and even if they do, they only post one outside the door. It seems that there is no profit at all." Xiaoai changed her posture, Resting his chin with one hand, he continued to worry.

"Well, if it really doesn't work, I'll find a job. Little girl, what do you think about delivering food, or you stay at home, and I will deliver food. I asked the security downstairs two days ago, and he I have a relative who delivers food. I heard that delivering food now, as long as you work hard, you can make a lot of money, why don’t I try it.”

Brother Zhou came here in high spirits, Zhou Xiaoai thought about it, and some disagreed: "But food delivery is not a long-term solution. These days, I still think it is better to do business by myself. Making money like this seems to be more fulfilling, so it is right." Your future development will be more beneficial."

Zhou Xiaoai was worried about the future of Big Brother Zhou just like she was worried about a child.Zhou Xiaonian was a little bit dumbfounded, and in the end he could only give up temporarily the idea of ​​delivering food.

Sitting next to Xiao Ai, he was distressed like Xiao Ai. After a while, Brother Zhou, who felt that he couldn't think of anything, picked up his phone lazily.Then he started to tap the screen, and after a while there seemed to be a message, so he pressed the screen even more vigorously.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Xiaoai, who felt like her scalp was about to go bald, looked up at him a little depressed.

"Didn't I worry about my friend borrowing two thousand and five last time? We have been in touch since then. A few days ago, I told him that the prices in the ice market were low, so he asked me to buy him a thick cotton coat in the ice market. I I thought it was troublesome, so I just picked a bad black classic style and gave it to him for free. The thing arrived in Dragon City yesterday, and the kid was wearing it today. I asked him how his clothes were, but he said he Very satisfied. And not only he is satisfied, several of his colleagues saw it and seemed to want to buy it. Now he is asking me for the specific price, saying that he wants to tell others.”

Seeing the little girl staring at her all the time, Zhou Xiaonian spoke honestly.As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xiaoai's eyes changed.

Thinking that she was dissatisfied with his free clothes, Zhou Xiaonian became alert.Subconsciously explained loudly: "Little sister, I didn't spend money recklessly. That cotton padded jacket was only 110. I gave it to the tiger because I thought it was cheap. I just mean it when they do us such a big favor. If it's expensive, I He will definitely take his money."

"Did you tell him how much the clothes cost?" The silent Zhou Xiaoai had a plan in mind and asked immediately.

"I talked about it a few days ago, but I said it was a little higher, and said it would be less than two hundred, so he can wear it with confidence. Now he is pressing me for the exact price, but I haven't said anything yet."

"Then when you went to buy that dress, what was the price they told you?"

Zhou Xiaoai continued to ask, and Zhou Xiaonian became proud, and quickly replied: "Didn't you tell me that you can bargain for the price when you go to the underground street in Bingshi to sell clothes? The woman told me three hundred and eighty, and I immediately returned her one hundred. Later she said No, I didn’t force it, so I turned around and left. After taking two steps, she called me back and asked me to add more, so I added another ten yuan.”

Zhou Xiaonian was happy, watching his smug fart.Zhou Xiaoai laughed, and suddenly had an idea: "You give your friend back 180, just say that you are sorry that you lied to him last time. You said that the price of something was more than 300, and you negotiated the price to 180, so you told him the price is higher." Yes. Let me know when his friend is willing to buy it later and transfer money to you.”
