When Xia Jinshu finished showering, Xia Yunuo and Xia Kening in the bedroom had already finished their "battle" and returned to their seats to continue doing their homework diligently.
The desk in the bedroom isn't big; if you squeeze in, three people can barely sit down, but it certainly won't be very comfortable.
Seeing Xia Jinshu come out, Xia Kening offered her seat to her sister and picked up a hairdryer to dry her hair.
Of the three, Xia Kening probably has the best hair quality, but her hair is the shortest, barely reaching her shoulders.
Xia Yunuo has the longest hair, almost reaching her waist. She usually ties it in a ponytail, which bounces up and down her back, always attracting the attention of many boys.
Xia Jinshu's hair is neither too long nor too short, extending past her shoulders. She usually wears it loose, giving her a gentle and graceful appearance.
After drying her hair, Xia Kening put the hairdryer away and was about to take a shower when Xia Jinshu stopped her.
"I have something to tell you first." Xia Jinshu turned to her two younger sisters and solemnly announced, "I found a tutoring job for the summer vacation."
Xia Yunuo wasn't surprised, after all, she had overheard her sister and mother's conversation in the early hours of the morning.
But Xia Kening, standing next to her, was somewhat surprised. "A tutor? Sis, you're only a sophomore in high school, you can be a tutor?"
"Of course," Xia Jinshu said with a smile. "In short, it's all settled, a salary of three thousand a month."
"I'm already thinking that once I get my salary, I can buy each of you a new set of clothes."
"You two can think about what kind of things you want to buy later."
Hearing her sister say this, Xia Yunuo immediately shook her head and refused. "Forget about new clothes. Summer vacation is so short, and there won't be any opportunity to wear them after school starts. It's better to just keep wearing the school uniform."
Xia Kening was initially quite happy and had already started thinking about what new clothes to buy.
Hearing what my second sister said, my mood immediately became heavy.
She remembered that when she and Song Yunshen swapped souls, Xia Yunuo only ate a serving of vegetables for lunch.
If even the second sister is like this, then the eldest sister must be even more so.
But when it comes to dividing living expenses, Mom always says that the three of us get the same amount.
Her older sisters never mentioned that they only ate vegetables; they always reminded her to have a balanced diet of meat and vegetables, so she never lacked money on her meal card at Shulan Middle School.
Every meal consisted of one meat dish and one vegetable dish.
This certainly can't compare to Song Yunshen's meals, but it's nutritious enough.
But she recently learned that this was actually a condition her two older sisters had negotiated for her.
Thinking of this, Xia Kening pursed her lips, then shook her head and said, "Let's forget about it. I think if we're going to buy clothes, we should buy one for Mom instead."
"That's fine." Xia Yunuo nodded immediately, "Mom has been wearing those two outfits for ages, changing them over and over again."
"Mm." Xia Jinshu nodded, looking at her two younger sisters with a hint of heartache in her eyes. Her desire to earn money grew stronger, but she didn't say anything more. "I'll definitely buy something for Mom too. I'm also planning to buy her a bag; she's been eyeing it for a long time during Chinese New Year."
"Let's forget about the bag," Xia Yunuo shook her head and whispered a reminder, "Even if Mom receives it, she definitely won't be happy. After all, clothes have practical value, while bags are pretty useless."
Hearing Xia Yunuo's words, Xia Jinshu realized the problem and immediately lowered her head to think for a moment, "You're right, let's forget about the bag, how about we buy a pair of shoes instead?"
"Yes, yes, this is good!" Xia Kening nodded repeatedly from the side, "Mom's shoes are so old."
The three sisters spent a long time in their bedroom thinking about what gift to buy for their mother.
Xia Kening then went to take a shower.
Xia Jinshu sat at her desk, glanced at Xia Yunuo, and then secretly took out the mysterious diary and opened it to take a look.
No updates.
That's right. Song Yunshen usually doesn't write his diary until around 10 o'clock. Even though it's Saturday, it's impossible for him to have it by 7 or 8 o'clock.
Thinking of this, Xia Jinshu simply took out her diary, pondered for a moment, and began writing today's entry.
On the other side, Song Yunshen had dinner at his uncle's house and played with Yingying for a while. Around 8:30 p. m., Yingying got a little sleepy, and Song Yunshen was finally free.
After saying goodbye to his uncle and aunt, Song Yunshen returned home and eagerly slipped into the study, only to find his father already occupying the computer.
"Why are you playing your crappy CS again?" Song Yunshen complained after seeing his father get headshot at the start of the game. "You can't even beat them. Is it so hard to admit you're old?"
"Enough with the nonsense." Song Mingyuan calmly took off his headphones, turned to Song Yunshen, and said, "Get me a drink."
"Saturday should be my leisure time, okay?" Song Yunshen said irritably, grabbing a drink and handing it over. "Get out of my way."
"I won't be home during summer vacation, so as long as you don't stay up late, you can play on the computer as much as you want." Song Mingyuan took a sip of his Mizone, "Let me have it today."
"It doesn't matter whether you're here during summer vacation or not, I'm going to buy a new computer anyway." Song Yunshen sat down next to him and complained, "Wrong location, what kind of smoke is this? It's like they've blocked the roof."
"This is a tactic," Song Mingyuan said without batting an eye. "You've saved enough money? So quickly?"
"I've been saving for two years." Song Yunshen rolled his eyes at him, then chuckled, "Your crappy 3090 is so outdated, wait until I get a 5090."
"This isn't cheap," Song Mingyuan said. "Wouldn't we be back to square one after buying it?"
"Money is meant to be spent."
"Then you'd better be careful," Song Mingyuan chuckled. "You don't have any pocket money now. Of the 5,600 yuan rent, 3,000 yuan has to go to your tutoring salary, and the remaining 2,000 yuan will probably have to go into your computer expenses, right? Don't starve to death."
"You're overthinking it." Song Yunshen raised his chin and snorted. "At worst, I'll just go to my uncle's house for a free meal, or dine and dash at my aunt's shop. Do you think I'll go hungry?"
"Then you can play this one from now on." Song Mingyuan glanced at his son, somewhat tempted. "I'll play yours."
"Don't even think about it!" Song Yunshen roared. "Nobody's allowed to touch the computer I bought!"
"Why do you need such a high-end setup to play Genshin Impact? Even with the graphics maxed out, it's still just so-so," Song Mingyuan said. "I play shooting games; only a high-end setup can match my skills."
"Bullshit! You can't even aim for a headshot and you still have the nerve to say that."
"If you're so good, why don't you play a game yourself? You talk like you're some kind of genius."
"I'll do it, fine! Get out of the way!"
Ten minutes later.
Song Yunshen gave up his seat.
"Aren't you a noob too?" Song Mingyuan scoffed.
"Isn't it all inherited from your genes?" Song Yunshen scoffed. "My tactics and strategies are perfectly fine, okay?"
The father and son were chatting happily in the study. Seeing that he wouldn't have a chance to touch the computer, Song Yunshen didn't want to disturb them any longer and simply got up and went back to his room.
Back in the bedroom, the first thing I did was take out my Future Diary from the drawer.
After flipping to the latest page and finding no further updates, Song Yunshen decided to put it away and start writing in his own diary.
But when he casually glanced at the previous content, his expression suddenly froze.
"Huh?"
"Was this written here before?"
