Chapter 005 Notice is coming
The system's voice was brisk, "Main mission, get a century-old wild ginseng."
"What!" Oh my god!
Luo Xiaobai felt that he had heard wrong. Even if he sold him, he wouldn't be able to buy a century-old ginseng, let alone a wild one!
"With my little money, why don't we change it to ten years?" Luo Xiaobai was discussing with the system.
The system ignored him at all, leaving the taskbar just there, refusing to compromise.
Luo Xiaobai pouted. Anyway, the task has no time limit. Let's find a way to make money first.
He still has more than nine thousand in hand, which is not a small sum in this era.
How about buying stocks?
He vaguely remembered a few potential stocks in his mind, but he couldn't remember when the bull market was.
You can invest a little first, but you can't throw all your eggs in one basket.
While thinking about this, Luo Xiaobai had already arrived at the high school where he was studying.
"Uncle, please open the door. I'll go get the admission notice." Because it's a holiday, the school door is locked. If you want to go in, you have to inform the guard in the color steel room.
The old man who was reading the newspaper raised his head and glanced at Luo Xiaobai, "It's almost noon, why are you here?" He complained, but still went out and opened the school door.
Luo Xiaobai thanked him repeatedly, but in his heart he scolded Mo Ming for wasting his time.
Entering the teaching building, Luo Xiaobai followed the route in his memory and found the teacher's office.
The class teacher was eating a box lunch inside. When he saw Luo Xiaobai knocking on the door and coming in, he immediately put down his chopsticks and said, "You are the only one missing. Congratulations on receiving the admission notice from Imperial United University."
Luo Xiaobai took the envelope from the class teacher and said gratefully: "Thank you teacher for your cultivation."
The class teacher smiled and said, "Okay, go back quickly and tell your parents the good news." The class teacher still liked Luo Xiaobai, an honest student, but he didn't know that Luo Xiaobai had mutated now.
Luo Xiaobai collected the admission notice and said goodbye to the class teacher before leaving.
The rain outside was not as heavy as when it came, and Luo Xiaobai was in a good mood, and he was ready to go to school in the imperial capital.
As for that piece of shit ex, let him eat shit!
What they say is that they are parents and they are responsible. After going to Tsingtao University, it’s not like they got involved with a little boy.
It's just that the other person's family is rich and sweet-talking, so he can cause trouble.
He still remembered the scene when he saw the two people feeding each other in the imperial capital. Zheng Shuai apologized to him hypocritically, saying that he and Youyou were true love!
Youyou, what a dick like a male actor!
Shaking his head, Luo Xiaobai drove out the two disgusting figures in his memory.
After returning home, Luo Xiaobai immediately handed the university admission notice to Xin Xiu.
Xin Xiu wiped her hands and took it tremblingly. When she saw the notice inside, her eyes instantly turned red, "My little boy has become a college student." These days, getting admitted to college is a matter of honor and honor to one's ancestors.
However, Luo Xiaobai, who has experienced later generations, does not feel much about this. After entering society, if there is no connection, diplomas and so on are all nonsense. Otherwise, he wouldn't have earned a minimum salary every month with a diploma from Imperial University and barely made ends meet.
"I'm going to buy groceries and celebrate tonight." Xin Xiu wiped her tears and said with a smile.
"Okay." Luo Xiaobai felt a little heavy, because he knew that his mother not only went out to buy groceries, but also called those best relatives.
However, those relatives who came over for dinner were very critical. When my mother mentioned supporting tuition fees, they all showed sharp faces and said many unpleasant things.
In the end, of course, he couldn't get a penny, and his mother had to force a smile to comfort him.
Thinking of something, Luo Xiaobai then went out. He would not let his mother be wronged again, and he would slap her in the face!
I bought a pack of cigarettes from a small shop. Although my father was not a smoker, he still smoked two cigarettes a day.
"Boss, I have a guest coming to my house soon. I don't know what kind of wine to buy." No matter in future generations or in this life, Luo Xiaobai is not a drinker, and he can only pour a glass of wine.
Seeing that Luo Xiaobai had just bought a pack of cigarettes, the boss was very polite to him, "Of course it's Wuliangye, but it's a little expensive."
"Two bottles." Without asking the price, Luo Xiaobai directly took out the wallet.
They were all neighbors, and the owner of the small shop didn't fool Luo Xiaobai, so he took out two bottles of good wine from the bottom of the box.
"Let's get some melon seeds and candies, too." If nothing unexpected happened, his cousins would come over to share the meal.
The boss packed a bag for Luo Xiaobai and wiped out the change.
Luo Xiaobai thanked him and carried his things home.
There is no one at home now, which is convenient for Luo Xiaobai to hide things.
After doing this, Xin Xiu also returned from shopping for groceries.
Seeing the smile on her mother's face, Luo Xiaobai vowed to protect her!
At about five o'clock in the afternoon, Luo Zhi came back from get off work and saw his wife busy in the kitchen. Some monks were confused.
"Xiao Bing, what is your mother doing?" Luo Zhi asked after catching Luo Xiaobing who was running over.
"Brother got the admission notice from Imperial United University, and mom is preparing delicious food!" Luo Xiaobing said happily.
Hearing this, Luo Zhi slapped his thigh and said, "I knew this kid Xiaobai was promising. I must have two drinks tonight."
"Daddy, come in and help me." Xin Xiu's voice rang in the kitchen .
Luo Zhi quickly rolled up his arms and sleeves and went into the kitchen to help his wife.
I don’t know what the two said inside. Luo Zhi showed a look of disapproval, but did not object.
The smile on Xin Xiu's face froze. Luo Xiaobai passed by the kitchen door and happened to hear what her mother said next, "The situation at home is not good. Even if we are a little angry, we must let Xiaobai go to college in the imperial capital with peace of mind."
Luo Xiaobai's eyes were hot, and he wanted to rush in right now and tell his parents inside that he was rich and had no shortage of tuition fees!
But in order to get rid of it once and for all, he still held back.
My parents are real people with too soft hearts. If they are not allowed to see clearly the disgusting faces of those relatives, they will inevitably be exploited and bullied by those people in the future.

Chapter 006 Relatives who came in a group
The aroma of food wafted from the kitchen, and Luo Xiaobai and three juniors helped arrange the dishes and chopsticks.
"Dong dong dong!"
There was a knock on the door. Luo Xiaoxue was closest to the door and went to open the door for the guest.
"Hello uncle, hello aunt, hello third uncle, hello third aunt, hello uncle, hello aunt!" Luo Xiaoxue's brisk voice was very pleasant.
"Hey, it's Xiaoxue. She's getting more and more lithe and graceful. She's much better than my Niuniu." The eldest aunt pushed her twelve-year-old daughter into the house.
"Sister Niuniu." Luo Xiaoxue called someone obediently and welcomed them in.
Xin Da Niu had a look of disdain on her face. Her family had already moved into an apartment building. If her mother hadn't dragged her along, she wouldn't have come!
Immediately afterwards, the uncle's cousin and the third uncle's cousin also entered the room, and the table quickly filled up.
"Sister-in-law, it's almost done. Stop working in the kitchen. Xiaobai is admitted to college, but he will give face to the old Luo family." The third aunt said sourly, because neither her daughter nor the son of the boss could do it. Get into college.
Luo Xiaobai glanced at her mother in the kitchen. The food had been finished and she was about to wash her hands and go into the house. The third aunt really knew how to pick the right time to talk.
Xin Xiu wiped her hands dry and went into the house, "Haha, your Qingqing is not bad either."
Luo Qingqing was picking up vegetables. Hearing this, he immediately put down his chopsticks, but there was meat juice stuck to the corner of his mouth.
The third aunt glared at her daughter hard, she was so embarrassed!
People in Shuncheng don't pay attention to food, talk or sleep, and just try to keep warm when eating.
"Second brother, why aren't you served any wine?" The uncle's face was stern, as if there was food but no wine!
Luo Xiaobai spoke immediately, because he was the one who asked his father not to serve the wine first, "Uncle, it's like this. I've been admitted to college. It's just bringing glory to the Luo family. It's not nice to follow others. Can't you help me?" Some tuition."
Xin Xiu didn't expect that what she wanted to say would be preempted by her son. She couldn't help but wonder, Xiaobai is usually quite introverted, what happened today?
Upon hearing this, the eldest aunt was not happy at first, "My family's conditions are not good. Your cousin is not as promising as you. He wants to do some business on his own, but he doesn't have enough capital now!" "Yes, he is not young at all
. Come on, I have to save some money!" The third aunt said.
"Niuniu is not in good health. As you all know, the family's money has not been enough to buy medicine these years." As the aunt said, she did not forget to give her daughter the chicken wings on the plate.
Although the three men did not speak, their meaning was very clear. They wanted money. In two words, no!
Both Luo Zhi and Xin Xiu looked ugly. Did their relatives add up?
I don't usually see them so united, but this time they came together and vented their anger through the same nostril without talking.
"Eldest brother, third child, brother-in-law, Xiaobai has just been admitted to college, we..." Just when Luo Zhi was embarrassed and ready to borrow money, he was interrupted by Luo Xiaobai again.
"It's not like we don't have money, but there are some things that are easy to do but not nice to do." Luo Xiaobai said.
"Oh, it turns out you have money. That will be easy. I was shocked." The third aunt pretended to pat her chest, "It's not that we don't want to give, but we really have no money." Luo Xiaobai smiled lightly
. , "I remember, the clothes Third Aunt is wearing are the new women's clothes from Guangdong. It costs more than a hundred yuan to buy them." Hearing this, Third Uncle's face suddenly darkened, because his salary was
all It was under the control of his wife, who complained every day that he had no money, but one piece of clothing almost equaled his monthly salary!
The third aunt looked panicked, "You are wrong, this is a fake!"
Luo Xiaobai did not continue to speak, but looked at the eldest aunt, "I remember that during the Chinese New Year, the eldest aunt did not wear a gold ring on her hand. I don't mean anything else by saying this, I just think that the relationship between the uncle and the aunt is good, and the old couple still doesn't forget about romance." Although Luo Xiaobai said good things, it didn't
sound right to the ears of the uncle and aunt. , with a very embarrassed expression.
"Also, Sister Niuniu, it's better to take less brain-tonifying medicine. It's only 30% poisonous." Luo Xiaobai stood up and took out two bottles from the cabinet next to the kang while everyone looked at them with shame and anger. Wine, "Dad asked me to prepare it. I wanted to talk for a while before drinking, but I think it's good to drink now." As soon as two bottles of Wuliangye were put on the table, Uncle Luo and
Uncle Luo's eyes went straight. Okay, this wine is not cheap!
Then, Luo Xiaobai took out a few more boxes of cigarettes and placed them on the table.
The uncle was a big smoker. When he saw the big hall on the table, he grabbed one.
As they drank wine and smoked cigarettes, the expressions of the three of them were a little mysterious. Could it be that their relative had become prosperous unknowingly?
The three women don't understand this. They don't need to take money, and they each take care of the children and feed them.
The one with the most complicated expressions was not these families, but Luo Zhi. Why didn't he know that he had these things at home?
Seeing that he drank a bottle of wine and smoked all over the room, Luo Zhi didn't feel distressed, but felt embarrassed.
Over the years, the couple had been annoyed by these people. Her mother-in-law felt that Luo Zhi had no future and only earned a dead salary, while her husband's family thought that Xin Xiu was rustic and it was embarrassing for a woman to set up a stall and sell goods outside.
As a couple with three children, life is naturally tiring, but they don't feel bitter. Watching their three children grow up, they feel that everything they do is worth it.
Now the eyes of the three families looking at them have changed. They are no longer filled with disgust and ridicule, but with a hint of unnoticeable flattery, just because of these two bottles of wine and a few boxes of cigarettes.
After the meal, several women sat around and talked.
The eldest aunt, third aunt, and aunt were all very enthusiastic, but Xin Xiu lacked interest.
She knew about the influence of these relatives in the family, but she didn't expect their faces to change so quickly.
"Xiu'er, have you developed your ambitions? The Great Hall has been opened?" Auntie held Xin Xiu's hand and looked around, not knowing what she was looking for.
Xin Xiu shook her head, "I don't know when he bought it. I rarely ask about men's matters." "Oh, no wonder
you and your wife have such a good relationship, but you still have to ask when you should ask." The third aunt said There was something in it, but Xin Xiu couldn't hear it.
Luo Xiaobai brought out melon seeds and candies again, and several juniors sat together, watching TV and eating. The atmosphere was not bad.
Uncle Luo and Uncle Luo also asked Luo Zhi whether he was rich, intentionally or unintentionally, but Luo Zhi changed the subject.
Looking at the elongated faces of his eldest brother and third brother, Luo Zhi smiled bitterly in his heart. It wasn't that he was hiding it, but that he really didn't know!
The three families left at around ten o'clock in the evening, and Luo Xiaobai helped clean up the house.
"Xiaobai, stop working so hard. Your brothers and sisters and I will take care of it. Your dad will ask you to come over." Xin Xiu said to her son with a smile. Maybe her husband would feel a little uncomfortable, but she only felt that her son was promising. I feel proud!
Luo Xiaobai's scalp went numb, how could he forget this incident.
