"What job?"
"Well, my restaurant is looking for a waiter who can speak English. I heard from the manager that it seems to be more than eight thousand yuan a month. Jing Jing, your English is good. If you don't mind, you can work at my restaurant. Moreover, we will cover all your meals and lodging. You can take three days off a month. What do you think?"
Liu Jing looked at Jiujiu with sparkling eyes. She had a plan in mind. If Jiujiu agreed, she would not go on a trip. She would go to the restaurant when she was free. Not only could she see if anyone bullied Jiujiu, but she could also be with Jiujiu. How great would that be?
Jiujiu only thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Firstly, she was really short of money. Secondly, Liu Jing's offer was really tempting.
Father Bai worked so hard that he could only earn a little more than a hundred yuan a day. He worked so hard that he could only earn a little more than three thousand yuan a month. Moreover, he could not work when it rained. Even the three thousand yuan would be greatly reduced. If she worked at the restaurant and earned more than eight thousand yuan a month, not only would she be able to cover her living expenses for the third year of high school, but she would also be able to spare some money to support her family.
Seeing that Jiujiu agreed, Liu Jing was instantly overjoyed. She immediately took out her phone and sent a message to the restaurant manager, saying that she had found a waiter who could speak English.
Liu Jing was the young master of the restaurant. Although the restaurant wanted long-term workers, the manager did not dare to object since Liu Jing had spoken. Therefore, the matter of Jiujiu working at the restaurant was settled.
After the exam the next day, Jiujiu planned to stay in school for three days until the results were out. She would go home after the results were out.
Liu Jing and Xue Qian naturally had someone to pick them up. After saying goodbye to Jiujiu, they directly got into the car and went home.
As Jia Lin's home was a little far from school, she was too lazy to go back and forth. She stayed in school like Jiujiu and waited for the results to be out before going home.
Only Jiujiu and Jia Lin were left in the dormitory.
Because Jiujiu had dissed her and Jiujiu had a good relationship with Xue Qian and Liu Jing, Jia Lin didn't like Jiujiu for the past month. Seeing that only she and Jiujiu were left in the dormitory, Jia Lin packed up and went to the Liu Ye dormitory. Only Jiujiu was left in the dormitory.
Jia Lin's original intention was to ostracize Jiujiu. However, for Jiujiu, it didn't matter whether she was ostracized or lonely. When she had friends, she would joke around with them. When she didn't have friends, she could also adapt to loneliness.
During these three days, Jiujiu stayed alone in the dormitory. She was either reading or thinking about the future.
After the college entrance examination, she had to develop her own business after going to university. Jiujiu wanted to follow her old path.
Jiujiu planned to earn a sum of money and give it to Steamed Bun to invest in stocks. Steamed Bun's interest would accumulate. Once she had the capital, she would prepare to start an online store.
Her era was equivalent to the beginning of the twentieth century. The internet wasn't very important. Even online stores had only started to rise in recent years. If she could catch this wave, she would definitely make a lot of money in the future.
Moreover, Xue Qian's mother's purchase of a bag gave Jiujiu a huge hint. She used to be an internet celebrity's purchasing agent. If she could bring her previous career here, it would be great.
Moreover, the price of luxury goods depended more on the brand. The original price of the goods was very fake. If her business was bigger, the profit margin in the future would naturally be bigger.
If she could do this well, she would really make a lot of money every day.
However, without money, all these things were just empty talk.
However, it was always good to think more about the future.
Three days later, early in the morning, Jiujiu went to the homeroom teacher's office to get her report card. Because she had been living on campus, she was the first to go.
The homeroom teacher didn't expect someone to go so early. When Jiujiu arrived, the homeroom teacher was cooking outside the office.
When he saw Jiujiu come in, he was stunned for a moment. He turned off the gas stove and wiped his hands that were wet from washing the vegetables on his apron. Then, he brought Jiujiu into the office and rummaged through the pile of report cards.
After finding Jiujiu's report card, the homeroom teacher looked at it and smiled brightly. She looked at Jiujiu and said, "Jiujiu, your results are very good this time. Keep it up and you will definitely be able to get into University A."
The students of the top class had already told the homeroom teacher which school they wanted to go to. Bai Jing had always wanted to go to University A, so the homeroom teacher said so.
Jiujiu took the report card and saw that it was third place in the whole school. She couldn't help but smile widely. "Thank you, teacher."
"What are you thanking me for? This is the result of your hard work."
Although Jiujiu's first few exams this semester were not satisfactory and her results kept falling, Jiujiu persevered and worked hard. In the last month, the dark circles under her eyelids almost never went down. The homeroom teacher had always seen Jiujiu's hard work. Fortunately, Jiujiu's hard work was rewarded.
Teachers all liked children who liked to study. Jiujiu was so passionate about studying, how could the homeroom teacher not like her?
Looking at Jiujiu's shabby clothes, the homeroom teacher thought for a moment and said, "The school has a subsidy for the second half of the year. I have already applied for it for you. If there are no problems, it should be yours."
The homeroom teacher paused and added, "The subsidy is about five thousand yuan."
The qualification for the subsidy was basically fixed. Jiujiu didn't expect that the homeroom teacher would take the initiative to apply for it for her. She suddenly raised her head and saw the homeroom teacher's concerned eyes. Jiujiu felt warm in her heart and couldn't help saying, "Thank you, teacher. I will study hard and live up to your expectations."
"Okay." The homeroom teacher looked at Jiujiu with a smile and said, "Have you had breakfast? If not, let's eat together. "
The homeroom teacher applied for the subsidy for her very well. No matter how thick-skinned Jiujiu was, she was embarrassed to have breakfast with the homeroom teacher. She vaguely said that she had eaten and quickly left.
Jiujiu had borrowed her mobile phone yesterday to send a message to Father Bai, saying that she would go home this morning.
After getting the report card, Jiujiu went back to the dormitory to pack up. After Liu Jing went to the dormitory to arrange a time and place to meet, she went to the school gate.
When Jiujiu arrived at the school gate, Father Bai was already there.
Because he was going to pick up Jiujiu today, Father Bai specially wore a clean set of clothes. His hair, which was usually covered in dust, was also washed clean. When he saw Jiujiu come out, Father Bai hurriedly pushed his bicycle over and took Jiujiu's bag. He asked softly, "How was the exam?"
Jiujiu smiled at Father Bai and cheerfully said, "Third in the school."
"Really?" Father Bai asked in surprise. Then, he laughed along with Jiujiu.
