Chapter 3224 Soccer Team
PS: There was a mistake in the previous chapter. The soccer team now includes two girls, Dudu and Xiaobai. The last one should be a boy, so I changed Xiaosongqin to Xiaodu.
It's dinnertime at the Shen family's house.
The family of three was having dinner. Liuliu was a fussy girl, but she had one advantage: she never needed to be supervised while eating. Just let her eat, and she would eat her fill on her own.
The only downside might be that Liu Liu would occasionally complain that Zhu Xiaojing's cooking was not good and that her culinary skills had not improved over the years.
However, after Zhu Xiaojing taught Liuliu a lesson, she never dared to complain to her face again.
At the dinner table, Zhu Xiaojing suddenly asked, "Liuliu, I heard your school is going to participate in the district spring sports meet?"
While enjoying her meal, Liuliu took a moment to reply, "Yes, that's true. Little Red Horse wants to participate too."
"Little Red Horse? Can Little Red Horse participate too?" Zhu Xiaojing asked.
Liuliu replied, "It shouldn't have been allowed, but Xiaobai went through the back door. You know, Xiaobai likes to do this. I tried to persuade her, but it was no use."
Zhu Xiaojing didn't respond. She was a little skeptical and even suspected that Liuliu had instigated Xiaobai to use connections.
"Which program did you sign up for?" she asked.
Liu Liu, who was eating, paused for a moment, then looked at Zhu's mother in surprise, seemingly shocked by what Zhu's mother had said.
Zhu Xiaojing asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Liu Liu put down her chopsticks and said seriously, "Aunt Zhu, think about how busy I am right now. I have to go to class during the day, do my homework after school, write one essay after another, and film on weekends. I'm so busy, where would I find the time to participate in the sports meet! If I participate in this and that, I'll be exhausted! The teacher wants me to participate, and the principal has also invited me. I want to participate, to bring glory to the school and add luster to Little Red Horse, but I don't have time. I don't have a single moment left."
Zhu Xiaojing laughed and said, "Yes, you don't have a single moment left. You've even lost weight."
Liu Liu picked up her chopsticks again and said, "That's right! I've lost weight, it's all from being tired. Aunt Zhu, can my allowance be increased a little?"
Zhu Xiaojing asked, "Do you have any pocket money?"
Dudu replied, "No ducks."
Zhu Xiaojing said, "Then how can I raise your price?"
Liuliu said, "It went from zero to one."
Zhu Xiaojing said, "Then I'll give you one yuan."
Liuliu was delighted and asked, "One yuan a day?"
Although it's a small amount, it's better than nothing. A dollar can buy something, or you can wait a few days, save up a little, and buy more.
Zhu Xiaojing said, "No, it's one yuan a week."
Liu Liu said dejectedly, "So stingy, so stingy! Robin has so much money as pocket money every day."
Shen Limin probably felt a pang of conscience, so he discussed with Zhu Xiaojing about giving Liuliu some pocket money every day, since Liuliu was indeed having a hard time.
The couple huddled together, whispering and discussing something, and Liuliu pricked up her ears to listen.
Zhu Xiaojing said, "How about this, I'll give you ten yuan a week as pocket money."
Liu Liu hesitated for a moment: "It's a bit too little."
Shen Limin said, "Then I'll give you an extra five yuan."
Liu Liu hesitated for a moment: "Add a little more."
Shen Limin said, "Then add five more yuan, making it twenty yuan a week."
Liuliu wanted to order more, but Zhu Xiaojing threatened, "Forget it, there's no money left!"
Liuliu quickly said, "Yes, yes, yes~~ Oh, Aunt Zhu, don't get angry so easily, it'll affect your beauty!"
In this way, Liuliu secured her own benefits and received twenty yuan of pocket money every week.
After dinner, we went to Little Red Horse Academy. Liuliu was all high and mighty, head held high and chest puffed out. With pocket money, she became more imposing and confident.
She thought she had arrived early, but it turned out there were others who had arrived even earlier.
There are people playing soccer in the school; it's Shiro and her friends' five-a-side soccer team.
"Let's start by teaching the most basic passing and ball control." Zhang Tan kicked the ball to Xiao Du. "Push the ball with the inside of your foot, don't poke it with your toes. When you stop the ball, bend your foot slightly so that you can stop it more steadily."
Xiao Du nodded and, imitating him, pushed the ball towards Dudu.
Liu Liu arrived and shouted, "Great shot!!"
However, Du's shot was off target, and the ball rolled into the grove.
Liu Liu's voice stopped abruptly, and she tried to say, "That kick was powerful! Well done, Xiao Du! You'll be a great player!"
Xiao Du smiled at her, feeling embarrassed herself.
There's no way around it, Liuliu really spoils her fans too much.
Dudu chased after it like the wind and immediately retrieved the soccer ball.
She tossed the ball to the ground, then gently flicked it with the toe of her right foot, and the soccer ball bounced lightly up and landed on her toe, as if it were dancing.
Dudu shouted, "Great shot!! That ball control! Dudu, you can score ten goals in a game!"
Dudu looked radiant, like a promising young general, and said, "I can shoot from a distance."
“Let’s shoot one and see!” Liu Liu said.
Without saying a word, Dudu kicked the soccer ball away. Liuliu was about to praise her when she realized that the ball seemed to be flying towards her. She quickly ducked and lowered her head, and the soccer ball almost grazed her hair as it flew past.
Liu Liu exclaimed with lingering fear, "Good heavens! Dudu, are you trying to harm your older sister? I didn't offend you, did I? I was just praising you!"
Dudu quickly apologized, saying she didn't mean it.
Liu Liu didn't hold it against her; she mainly came tonight to praise Xiao Du and boost his confidence.
Zhang Tan divided the football team into two groups: Xiao Bai and Shi Baobao in one group, and Du Du, Xu Jun, and Xiao Du in the other, to practice offense and defense.
As soon as the whistle blew, Shi Baobao, like a wild horse, led the football and galloped towards the goal guarded by Xu Jun.
Seeing this, Dudu rushed forward to snatch the ball.
Xiao Bai shouted, "Shi Baobao, pass the ball!"
Shi Baobao glanced at her, confirmed her location, and kicked the soccer ball over.
Dudu missed its target and turned to pounce on Xiaobai.
As soon as Xiaobai stopped the ball, he saw Xiaodu rushing over aggressively, yelling "Ah ah!" It seemed that even if he couldn't steal the ball, he wanted to intimidate Xiaodu.
Xiao Bai remained calm and easily tipped the ball past Xiao Du.
Du rushed too fast and missed Xiaobai, watching helplessly as Xiaobai dribbled forward.
Having already passed Dudu and Xiaodu, only goalkeeper Xu Jun remains in front of Xiaobai.
Just as Xiaobai was about to rush over and shoot, she noticed that Dudu had rushed back and was quickly approaching her.
Without thinking, she kicked the soccer ball to Shi Baobao.
"Shi Baobao, shoot!" she shouted.
Shi Baobao met the ball and shot. The ball flew towards the goal like a cannonball and was caught in Xu Jun's arms.
Zhang Tan, standing on the sidelines, shouted and applauded, but it was unclear whether he was cheering for the attacking team or the defending team.
I'm so sleepy
