Chapter 3153 Sharing Half Upon Meeting
Zhu Xiaojing slowly pushed open the door, revealing her face first, her eyes fixed on Liuliu sitting at the desk.
Liuliu was engrossed in her homework when she seemed to be disturbed. She looked up at her mother, Zhu, with a reproachful look in her eyes: "You disturbed my problem-solving! I almost solved it! Now I'm stuck, it's all your fault."
"Stop messing around," Zhu Xiaojing said calmly, completely ignoring the blame Liuliu had thrown at her. She looked around suspiciously, but found nothing amiss, before saying, "Then you continue doing your homework. If there are any you don't know how to do, you can leave them blank for now, and I'll come back to check them later."
"Mmm." Liuliu nodded, wanting Zhu's mother to leave quickly, but she couldn't help but say, "It's no use waiting for you to come; you don't know as much as I do."
Zhu Xiaojing stopped closing the door and stared at Liuliu: "What did you say?"
Liuliu was startled and realized that she shouldn't provoke Zhu's mother at this time. Instead, she should send Zhu's mother away as soon as possible. She quickly laughed and said, "Hahaha, I was just joking. Zhu's mother, you go and do your thing. If there's anything I don't know, I'll ask you. You know more than I do."
Suddenly, Zhu Xiaojing's gaze fell on the tablet computer next to Liu Liu and she said, "How come my tablet computer is with you?"
Liu Liu was panicking inside, but she tried to remain calm and said, "I don't know either, I don't know. Huh? How did it end up here? Well, just leave it here for now. If you want to take it, Aunt Zhu, you can take it."
Liu Liu, having faced certain death, took the initiative to pick up the tablet computer and hand it to Zhu Xiaojing.
"Then leave it there for now, don't play on the computer!" Zhu Xiaojing didn't go to get the tablet.
"I don't want to play, I don't want to play. I don't even have enough time to do my homework, how can I have time to play on the computer?"
Zhu Xiaojing laughed and said, "You really don't have time to play on the computer, otherwise you wouldn't finish your homework, and if you don't finish your homework, I'll beat you. Good luck, my child!"
Zhu Xiaojing really left this time. The moment she closed the door, Liuliu's heart was pounding and her hands were trembling. She kept telling herself, "Don't be happy yet, be calm. Zhu's mother might not have left yet."
She focused on her homework for five minutes before realizing that Zhu's mother had really left, and wasn't just spying on her at the door!
She stealthily stretched out her little hand, keeping her body still and her eyes fixed on the doorway, afraid that the dark-skinned Mrs. Zhu would suddenly barge in.
The tablet was turned on again, and Liuliu saw that there were more than fifty new messages in the Little Red Horse management group, and she had been tagged.
After struggling for a long time, she finally found the account's wallet and saw the newly added 1498 yuan in it!
Liuliu was overjoyed, feeling incredibly wealthy!
She excitedly fiddled with her wallet, trying to get the money out, but after trying for a long time, she still couldn't get it out. She was told either that she didn't have a bank card or that the authentication was wrong, and her account was even locked.
Dudu was frantically tapping on the tablet; I really wanted to stab it to death!
"My money! My money!!"
Liu Liu was furious. The large sum of money she had worked so hard to steal had ended up in Zhu's mother's account!
Just as Liuliu was racking her brains trying to figure out how to turn the red envelope into cash, the door was pushed open again. This time, Liuliu couldn't hide in time and was caught red-handed.
Holding the tablet in her hands, she looked at Zhu's mother with a look of astonishment, and thought to herself, "Oh my god."
"What are you doing?" Zhu Xiaojing asked excitedly.
"I, I, I'm looking up study materials, I don't know how to do this problem."
After her initial shock, Liuliu quickly recovered and came up with an excuse.
Zhu Xiaojing didn't believe her. She walked over and held out her hand: "Give it to me."
Liu Liu obediently presented the tablet computer with both hands, revealing a fawning smile.
"Homework is so hard! I've been thinking about it for ages and still can't figure it out, so I have to ask the computer. Mom, can you help me take a look?"
Liuliu successfully diverted Zhu Xiaojing's attention. Zhu Xiaojing put down her tablet and took Liuliu's homework, which contained a math problem.
"Liuliu, you need to work on your math." Zhu Xiaojing smiled and looked at the math problem carefully. Even third-grade math problems sometimes required her to take them seriously, otherwise she might not be able to solve them.
Fortunately, she knew how to do the problem. After giving Liu Liu two sections, she returned the workbook to Liu Liu and checked the tablet to see what Liu Liu had been doing.
The webpage was open, and it was indeed asking how to solve a math problem. Zhu Xiaojing was relieved. It seemed that she had put enough pressure on Liuliu, making her give up the idea of slacking off.
However, she soon discovered the lively Little Red Horse management group, and then found more than a thousand yuan in her wallet.
"Where did the money come from?" she asked Liuliu.
Liu Liu's heart skipped a beat, her liver trembling. Zhu's mother had finally discovered her secret stash of money!
"It's mine! It's mine! The wages that Boss Zhang and Xiao Bai paid me!"
Liuliu quickly made up an excuse, saying the red envelope was her wages, so that Zhu's mother would feel embarrassed to keep it for herself.
But she overestimated Zhu's mother's bottom line. Zhu Xiaojing said with a bright smile, "I'll save this much money for you."
Liu Liu wailed, "It's happening again—I'll save my own money myself."
Zhu Xiaojing immediately stopped smiling, her face hardening: "You want to go back on your word? We'll split it in half when we meet."
Liu Liu grimaced and muttered to herself, "Aunt Zhu is so shameless!"
"Either I'll save it for you, or you can give me half. You choose."
Liu Liu was torn between two conflicting thoughts. After thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Then I'll give you half. You give me the other half!"
She held out her palm, asking for money.
Zhu Xiaojing said, "I'll open a bank account for you today and help you save your money. You can put your pocket money and New Year's money into the card in the future."
Liu Liu was filled with unease and didn't believe Zhu's mother's words at all. No matter how eloquent Zhu's mother was, Liu Liu could only conclude that she wanted to take advantage of her mother's money.
"No, no, I prefer cash."
Liuliu doesn't trust banks or Aunt Zhu; she only trusts cash.
Zhu Xiaojing said, "Aren't you afraid of losing so much cash? You..."
Before she could finish speaking, Liuliu interrupted, "I'm not afraid."
"...Alright, here you go, see how many days you can use it."
"Hahaha, give it to me, give it to me, huh? Why is 9 yuan missing??? You need to give me 749 yuan."
"I don't have any change."
"Then give me 750 yuan. If you don't even have 50 yuan, give me 800 yuan. I won't complain about it being too much."
"You're dreaming! Here you go! My little piggy."
"Hehe, you're welcome, my Aunt Zhu."
"Stop laughing. Put the money away. You don't want your dad to see it, do you? When we meet, we'll split it in half, and you'll get half less. Let's see if you'll still be laughing then."
Liuliu quickly hid the money under her pillow.
"Pack your things, we're going back to our hometown for the Chinese New Year tonight," Zhu Xiaojing instructed.
Dudu asked excitedly, "Are we going back? Is Daddy Pig on vacation?"
"He'll have the day off after work today."
