Chapter 563: Chapter 563 Reporting 4

Although it wasn’t that she was truly tired of eating meat, Xiaocui was not lying; in the city, as long as she ate with Shen Mianmian, she really did have meat to eat with every meal, unlike at home where they couldn’t afford to eat meat more than two or three times a month.

Liu Da Nai knew her daughter was concerned for her and laughed, "We also eat meat quite often at home, don’t be too hard on yourself in the city. Take good care of yourself."

Her daughter was only in her teens and yet so sensible, giving all her wages to her. She was already very content.

Liu Da Nai ate quickly, and it wasn’t long before she finished her meal. She sat for a while and then said she wanted to go back, but Shen Mianmian stopped her, "Da Nai, it’s not easy for you to come to the city. Stay for one night and go back tomorrow."

"Yeah!" Xiaocui said excitedly, following up, "Mom, there are still lots of people on the streets at night in the city, and everywhere is brightly lit; I’ll take you around when I get off work."

Although Xiaocui also really wished for her mom to stay for the night, if Shen Mianmian hadn’t spoken up, she wouldn’t have felt right bringing it up herself.

After all, the place they were staying in was rented by Shen Mianmian. Seeing that Shen Mianmian had spoken first showed she didn’t mind, which was why Xiaocui then spoke up.

Having not seen her daughter for a long time, Liu Da Nai also wanted to spend more time with her and was curious to see what this flushing toilet her daughter had talked about was like.

Seeing that both really did want her to stay, she agreed.

Upon her agreement, Shen Mianmian said, "Xiaocui, take Da Nai around for a stroll."

"No need, no need," Liu Da Nai hurriedly waved her hand, "you two just focus on your work, don’t mind me."

Her daughter earned so much money in a month and the work was easy; she couldn’t afford to slack off now.

"It’s alright, Da Nai, it’s not busy now. The store still has me, Siyuan, and also Zhang Qian," Xiaocui explained.

Xiaocui understood that walking around while on duty wasn’t appropriate, but her mom had come to the store for the first time and she really wanted to take her out for a stroll.

"Mianmian, I won’t take a break next week. Let’s count this as my time off, okay?" Xiaocui requested.

Shen Mianmian knew that if she didn’t agree, Xiaocui definitely wouldn’t take Liu Da Nai out, so she nodded casually and then took out twenty yuan to give to her.

"This is an advance on your wages," she offered.

Xiaocui would always give her salary to her family and didn’t have much money on her. Liu Da Nai came in a hurry and probably didn’t bring money either. How could they go out shopping without money?

Seeing how savvy Shen Mianmian was at such a young age, Liu Da Nai kept praising her along with Xiaocui and urged her daughter to work hard.

Zhang Qian had been silent since Liu Da Nai’s arrival since she didn’t know Xiaocui’s mother and couldn’t join the conversation. Seeing how good Shen Mianmian was to Xiaocui and her mother, she felt a sense of longing that went beyond mere envy.

Last week, when she had a day off and Mianmian took Xiaocui to see a movie, she was filled with envy.

She had never seen a movie before and was very curious about it.

At the time, she regretted not being at work, but then she thought maybe Shen Mianmian purposely chose to go to the movies during her day off.

Even if she hadn’t taken time off, Shen Mianmian might not have taken her to the movie.

Even though Shen Mianmian didn’t make it too obvious, Zhang Qian knew Shen Mianmian treated Xiaocui and her differently.

Although both worked for Shen Mianmian, she was just an employee, while Xiaocui was treated like a sister.

Shen Mianmian did not notice the change in Zhang Qian’s emotions, her thoughts were all on Zhou Lanfang, "Siyu told my family that I’m studying at No. 3 Middle School."

"I already figured that out," Lu Siyuan snorted, "Don’t worry, if your parents dare to lay a finger on you, I’ll dare to stand up to them."

Knowing about Mianmian’s attendance at No. 3 Middle School would definitely provoke trouble.
