Half of the new week had quietly passed, and November was gradually approaching the middle of the month. In the past few days, Yang Yi had not forgotten Xi Xi's request. He had communicated with Lanzhou Kai and helped Boss Lan adjust the way he disciplined Lan Xin. Just like Xi Xi, Lan Xin also 'enjoyed' the incentive mechanism of working hard to earn 'gold coins'.
Of course, it also depended on the person!
Other than earning gold coins from doing housework and studying, Lan Xin could also use the time she spent exercising to exchange for the corresponding amount of gold coins. Moreover, her gold coins were also very useful.
For example, three gold coins could be exchanged for the permission to eat at Xi Xi's house, and ten gold coins could be exchanged for the chance to have Yang Yi make her any delicacy she wanted!
If it was said that exchanging gold coins for the permission to watch television was a necessity, and exchanging gold coins for dolls wasn't attractive to Lan Xin, then exchanging gold coins for delicacies was an important reason why Lan Xin couldn't raise any objections to these 'harsh' requirements!
Not only that, but Lan Xin's enthusiasm was completely aroused.
"Uncle Yang, can I still come to your house today and do my homework with Xi Xi?" In the car back in the evening, Lan Xin asked enthusiastically.
Yesterday, because Wu Jingjing had gone out shopping, she had come back rather late, so Lan Xin had stayed at Yang Yi's house to do her homework with Xi Xi. It had to be said that with the two children doing their homework together and encouraging each other, Lan Xin's efficiency was also much higher.
Before Yang Yi could reply, Xi Xi happily danced around and said, "Yes, yes, Xin Er, you can come to my house to play again!"
Yang Yi smiled and said to Lan Xin, "Of course you can, but you have to promise Uncle that you can't whisper to Xi Xi when you're doing your homework. If you do, you probably won't be able to finish your homework!"
"Yay, Xi Xi, I can go to your house to do my homework!" Lan Xin didn't even finish listening to Yang Yi's words and was already cheering.
The Lan family was more than happy for Lan Xin to come over to study with Xi Xi. After Yang Yi sent Lan Xin home, Wu Jingjing instructed a few servants to move Lan Xin's desk out of the Lan house and into the side hall of Yang Yi's house. From the looks of it, she didn't want to leave!
Yang Yi didn't care. Mo Fei also invited Wu Jingjing to stay for dinner.
"Good! Good! Today I want to eat at Xi Xi's house! " Lan Xin, who was standing at the side with her schoolbag, had very sharp ears. When she heard the keyword, she suddenly turned her little head and said happily with her eyes shining.
"If you want to eat at Xi Xi's house, then you have to take out three gold coins." Wu Jingjing was impartial. She stretched out her right hand and said.
"Aiya, no, I'm with my mother. Xi Xi's mother is treating us to dinner. We don't have to spend money!" When Lan Xin heard that she wanted her precious gold coins, she suddenly became anxious and argued at the top of her voice.
"Xi Xi's mother is treating me to dinner, not you." Wu Jingjing shrugged her shoulders. For the sake of her daughter's grades and health, she didn't know how many times she and Lan Zhou Kai played bad cop. At this moment, she didn't want to leave any room for Lan Xin to be lazy. "If you have three gold coins, of course, you can stay for dinner. But if you don't, then you have to go back and eat the food cooked by Grandma Wu."
Lan Xin's small mouth immediately pouted. She could almost hang an oil bottle on it. "I don't have three gold coins. I, I only have one!"
Murphy, who had been quietly observing the situation, finally couldn't help but ask, "Only one? When Auntie gave you and Xi Xi the gold coins yesterday, didn't you say that there was one more? Then there should be two. Adding up the one you used to finish your homework today, you should have three gold coins! "
Wu Jingjing laughed and said, "When she went back last night, she couldn't help watching TV! If it weren't for the fact that she had to go to bed, she probably wouldn't have been able to keep the remaining gold coin! "
Lan Xin didn't want to exercise, so she could only rely on doing homework to earn the subsistence allowance. She thought that as long as she didn't watch TV, she could earn three days of subsistence allowance and go to Xi Xi's house for dinner!
Who knew that she still couldn't resist the temptation last night …
"You all don't want me to come to Xi Xi's house for dinner!" Lan Xin said dejectedly, "I don't even have three gold coins, boohoo …"
Lan Xin even had a sobbing tone, but the little girl didn't cry. She just rubbed her eyes with her hands and quietly observed through the gaps between her fingers, trying to find a trace of concession on the adults' faces.
My big Xin Er is so cute. She should pity me, right?
However, she didn't. Wu Jingjing was too familiar with Lan Xin's three axes. She even pulled Murphy and said with a smile, "Don't mind her. If she can't finish her homework, she won't have any gold coins today. If she doesn't want to exercise, she probably won't be able to save three gold coins in her lifetime."
However, the adults didn't pity Lan Xin. Xi Xi cared about her little friend!
Xixi, who had run upstairs at some point in time, ran down while hugging her little treasure chest. "Xin 'er, why don't I lend you two gold coins? When you have money, you can return them to me! "
Xi Xi's concern made the somewhat desperate Lan Xin feel as if she saw an oasis in the desert. She was overjoyed. She removed the small hands that were covering her face and looked at Xi Xi with bright eyes, "Really? Xi Xi, do you want to lend me your gold coins? "
"Yes!" Xi Xi nodded her small head and opened her little treasure chest.
When the treasure chest was opened, there was a layer of shiny "gold coins" inside. Lan Xin was immediately dazzled by the sight.
"Wow, so many gold coins!" Lan Xin's eyes almost popped out. She looked at it enviously, as if she saw pieces of floating cake.
Xi Xi really worked hard to earn gold coins. The little girl wasn't like Lan Xin who tried to live off the subsistence allowance in exchange for opportunities to enjoy life. In addition to the gold coins she saved from doing her homework, she also worked hard to find opportunities to help her father do the housework and help her mother change Tong Tong's clothes.
After doing a lot of things, after deducting the money that Xi Xi spent on watching TV, Xi Xi finally saved up a "lot" of gold coins — four!
Xi Xi wasn't a miser. She was willing to spend money. She spent some of it on watching TV. She also planned to wait until the weekend when she could go shopping. Then she would cross off the rest and buy the doll she wanted!
Of course, four gold coins wasn't a lot. It was only enough to put one layer in Xi Xi's little treasure chest. However, for Lan Xin who had never saved up three gold coins, this was definitely a huge sum of money!
How could she not feel envious?
"Look, Xi Xi is so hardworking. She also works other jobs, but you don't want to use exercise to earn gold coins. Now you want to eat at Xi Xi's house, but you don't have any gold coins, right? "Wu Jingjing took the opportunity to lecture Lan Xin.
"But Xi Xi said that she wanted to lend me money!" Lan Xin blinked. At this moment, she wasn't anxious and said calmly.
It seemed that Lan Xin had found a gold mine that could be mined …
