"Xiao Mi~"
Chi Youyou waved at the three people coming towards her while holding a bunch of grapes.
"Youyou, this is for you. We just bought so milk tea in the cafeteria. The taste is just as good as the ones outside~"
"Milk tea?"
"It’s a drink made with milk and tea. Why don’t you try it and see how it tastes?"
Shen Xiaomi noticed her curious look at the milk tea and patiently explained, thinking she didn’t know about it.
"Wow, it’s really milk tea! I used to envy my classmates when they bought it!"
"Youyou, have you really never had milk tea?"
Zhao Qingran exclaid in surprise, regretting her words right after, "Sorry Youyou, I didn’t an it that way. When we were buying it, we were worried you hadn’t tried it and might not like it."
Shen Xiaomi and Lin Xing were just as shocked. In their eyes, it’s rare for soone not to have tried milk tea these days, and they couldn’t help but feel a bit sorry for this girl who ca from the mountains.
"It’s okay, I understand. We don’t really have the extra money to buy such treats back ho. We save money for living expenses. But my mom knows I like tasty things, so she often makes it for ."
Chi Youyou knew they didn’t an any harm.
"Your mom makes it herself?"
Zhao Qingran blinked with curiosity.
Her family was well-off, and she’d been well-fed and cared for since childhood. She was very curious about this pretty girl from the mountains.
They all said that it was a poor, remote village with wild customs, where even getting enough to eat was a struggle. But she thought Phoenix Mountain must be great; otherwise, it wouldn’t have nurtured soone as vibrant as Chi Youyou!
"Yes, we have dairy cows, and we also grow tea trees on the mountain."
!!!
"Youyou, don’t tell the black tea leaves are homade, and the milk is fresh from your cow!"
She loved watching lifestyle vlogs about growing vegetables, flowers, cooking, and making desserts.
Now hearing Chi Youyou say her mom makes milk tea with ingredients from their ho, her eyes lit up instantly.
Chi Youyou nodded, "Buying it outside costs quite a bit. My dad says kids should drink more milk, so he figured out a way to raise cows."
"Mr. Chi is amazing!"
"Youyou, your parents must really love you and your brother a lot!"
Even saying so, buying milk for two kids every day wasn’t a small expense.
But buying cows must have cost Mr. Chi quite a bit, too.
Shen Xiaomi and the others looked at each other, feeling that Chi Youyou’s family was truly struggling, which made them feel even more sympathy for her.
Parents, in order to provide the best life conditions, would try all ans, even if it ant selling everything, to ensure their children live well!
It’s so touching!
"Youyou, try it quickly to see if it tastes good. If not, we’ll take you to Fallen Street behind the school to buy so!"
"Youyou, co on, I’ll take you to eat ice cream and fried chicken!"
"Youyou, do you like desserts? I know a really good dessert shop on Fallen Street, let take you there!"
...
All of a sudden, the three of them were eagerly offering to take her to eat delicious food.
Chi Youyou was a bit overwheld by their sudden enthusiasm.
"Thank you all, I’m really happy to know you. But I’m earning my own money now, so I can buy it myself~"
She proudly shook the grapes in her hand in front of them.
"Selling grapes?"
Zhao Qingran had noticed the bunch of grapes she was holding earlier.
"Yes, our family grows so fruits and vegetables. By selling them, it’s enough for my brother and I to live on."
Chi Youyou didn’t hide it, as she never thought it was sothing to be ashad of.
"!!!"
Selling vegetables every day!
Chi Youyou sells vegetables and fruits every day to help support her family!
The three of them listened and instantly felt heartache!
They imdiately imagined the scene of Chi Youyou setting up a stall, her tiny figure struggling to carry a pole, vigorously shouting and selling...
