Chapter 210: I Picked Up a Penny on the Side of the Road

"Oh, let's go eat!"

"Hmm!"

I sold a bicycle early in the morning, which was also a good thing for Ye Lin, and it was off to a good start.

Business should be good today, Ye Lin thought as he walked into the house.

Ye Lin had just eaten a few bites here, Zhai Ying came in, handed the money to Ye Lin and said, "Here you go, the money from selling bicycles." ”

"Let it go!"

"Oh! I'm going to get busy. ”

"Go ahead!"

Ye Lin eats quickly, and it is the kind that sweeps all.

As soon as I finished eating, I began to get on the people, of course, this wave is the real bicycle repair people, early in the morning, it is not too hot, and no one drinks sour plum soup.

Since ten o'clock in the morning, Ye Lin has not been cut off at the door of this car repair shop, and Ye Lin and Zhai Ying have not even eaten lunch.

No way, there are too many people, you can't throw customers down to eat!

It wasn't until after going to work in the afternoon that the two of them were a little free, and Ye Lin said to Zhai Ying: "You look at it, I'll buy something to eat." ”

"Hmm! I watched. ”

What is Ye Lin going to buy at this point! This is not the afterlife, there is food to sell at any time.

In this era, restaurants were all state-run or collective, and basically closed after dinner.

Ye Lin was just making an excuse.

After turning around and finding a place where no one was around, Ye Lin took out some braised meat from the space, some pig's head meat and a few baked cakes and went back.

"Huh, so fast?"

"Well, the restaurants are closed, and I bought some cooked food. ”

"Oh!"

After a busy day, at six o'clock, Ye Lin was holding the box containing money, and Zhai Ying was holding Ye Lin's big enamel jar, which was of course filled with sour plum soup.

"Huh, Ye Lin, isn't that Xiao Ai?"

As soon as she entered the alley of Ye Lin's house, Zhai Ying pointed to the little girl who was squatting under the wall and crying.

"Really, what's wrong with this girl?"

Ye Lin hurriedly ran over, pulled the little girl up and asked, "Girl, tell my brother, who bullied you?"

Ye Lin loves this little girl very much, as long as there is something delicious, Ye Lin will give it to her.

Life is so difficult now, but this girl has never lacked a mouth.

"Brother Ye Lin. ”

Ye Lin didn't ask, but after asking, this girl cried even more sadly.

Ye Lin was in such a hurry!

"Girl, tell my brother, who bullied you, Brother Ye Lin cleaned him up. ”

"Brother Ye Lin, no one bullied me. ”

"Uh!" Ye Lin was stunned for a moment and said, "Girl, no one bullied you, why are you crying?"

"I ...... I lost the money, woo-woo. ”

Hearing the little girl say this, Ye Lin breathed a sigh of relief, he thought something was going on! It turned out that he had lost money.

"Girl, don't cry, isn't it just a loss of money! Tell Brother Ye Lin how much money you lost?"

"Five...... Five points, my grandmother gave me the money to buy a notebook pen, and there are five points left, and I can't find it. ”

Five cents may not be too much of a concern for adults, but it is different for little girls, who can buy three pencils or two homework books.

"Okay girl, isn't it just five cents! Brother Ye Lin gave it to you. ”

"No, I can't ask for Brother Ye Lin's money. ”

Xiao Ai shook her head directly, the reason why Ye Lin likes this little girl can't be said to have nothing to do with this.

The little girl loves to eat, she eats whatever Ye Lin gives her, but she can't give money, no matter how much she gives, she doesn't want it.

"Girl, aren't you lost? Besides, Brother Ye Lin is rich. ”

"Brother Ye Lin, I can't ask for your money. ”

"Ugh!"

"Alright, okay, leave it to me! ”

Zhai Ying pushed Ye Lin aside, squatted down and took the little girl's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back, I'll help you explain it to grandma later." ”

"Is it okay for Sister Zhai Ying?"

"Yes, don't worry!"

"Hmm!"

"This girl. Ye Lin shook his head.

Suddenly, Ye Lin thought of something, and hurriedly walked in front, and after taking a few steps, he secretly threw a few cents on the ground.

Sure enough, the little girl quickly reduced it.

"Huh, Xiao Ai, is this the money you lost. Zhai Ying asked.

"Sister Zhai Ying, this is not the money I lost, what I lost was a five-cent banknote, this is a coin, Sister Zhai Ying, let's give this money to the police uncle!"

"Ugh!"

Zhai Ying was stunned for a moment, of course she saw Ye Lin throwing money on the ground in front, she thought that the little girl would be very happy to pick it up, but she didn't expect it to be like that at all.

"Why, girl? Didn't you just lose five cents? You just let it be that you lost it. ”

"Sister Zhai Ying can't do it, I'm very sad if I lose five cents, and others must be the same as me, so I'm going to give the five cents to the police uncle. ”

This girl is probably brainwashed by a penny nursery rhyme.

The penny children's rhyme was written and composed by teacher Pan Zhensheng, and was released in 63 years, that is, this year, and was broadcast every day by the Central People's Radio.

Whether it's a factory or a street, you can hear it every day, and it's hard not to remember it.

Hearing that it was a banknote, Ye Lin threw another banknote on the ground, which was also quickly picked up by the little girl.

"Girl, is this what you lost?" Zhai Ying asked with a smile.

The reason why she laughed was because she felt that Ye Lin was too naΓ―ve, and she could think of this way.

"Sister Zhai Ying, this is not. ”

"Uh, why not? Didn't you say you lost a banknote? This is a banknote!"

"Sister Zhai Ying, I didn't come here at all when I lost the money, how could it be that I lost it, this must have been lost by someone else, and I will hand it over to the police uncle together. ”

Of course Ye Lin heard the little girl's words, patted his head, and then shook his head.

He is really living more and more, such a simple truth, why didn't he think that he should ask in advance, ask where the little girl was lost, and then pretend to find it.

"Alright then, let's go back first, and hand it over to the police uncle tomorrow. ”

"Hmm!"

"By the way, girl, you put this in your schoolbag and take it back to eat. ”

Zhai Ying took out a paper bag from her bag, which contained baked cakes that she hadn't finished eating at noon.

At noon, Ye Lin took out a lot, and there were a few left, which were brought back by Zhai Ying.

"Sister Zhai Ying, what is this?"

"Baked cakes, it's cold, go back and ask grandma to help you on the pot. ”

Hearing that it was a baked cake, the little girl hurriedly took it, looked around, and saw that there was no one, so she put it in her schoolbag.

This girl, she doesn't want anything to give money, she says it's food, you look at her like that.

To be honest, don't say it's just cold, even if it's moldy, someone will still eat it.

He didn't know if Ye Lin didn't go anywhere else, but in this big compound where they lived, except for Hu Lao and his family, who were willing to buy baked cakes to eat, no one else was really willing to do it.

Of course, except for Ye Lin's family, it was even said that Ye Lin's family was not so rare that they would eat baked cakes, if there was no way, Ye Lin would not eat it.

"Girl, you're too careful, aren't you? ”

"Sister Zhai Ying, you don't know, someone robbed it. ”

"Uh, who dares to snatch your things, aren't you afraid that your brother Ye Lin will clean it up?"

"Sister Zhai Ying, no one else dares to rob it, but someone dares to eat. ”

Zhai Ying couldn't understand the little girl's words, but Ye Lin, who was walking in front, could understand.

This is hunger, people can do anything when they are hungry.

It is estimated that the little girl was robbed by other children in the courtyard.

It's just that this little girl didn't say it, maybe it's sympathy! After all, she doesn't lack mouth, let alone food.

"Girl, next time someone robs you of food, you can tell me. Ye Lin stopped and said to the little girl.

"Brother Ye Lin, I ......"

"Okay, forget the previous one, I'm talking about the next time. ”

"Oh!"

Looking at the little girl's perfunctory answer, Ye Lin knew that even if something like that happened again, she wouldn't say it.

For this, Ye Lin could only shake his head.

After returning to the courtyard, Ye Lin said to Zhai Ying: "You send Xiao Ai back, and then bring her to the house for dinner." ”

"Okay, I got it. ”

Ye Lin took the large enamel jar from Zhai Ying's hand, and then walked home.

As soon as he entered the backyard, the jar in Ye Lin's hand was snatched up, needless to say, there was no one else except Ye Qi and Li Ting.

"Help me get the box in. ”

"You won't move it yourself?" Ye Qi gave Ye Lin a roll of his eyes.

"I'm going out. ”

"Oh well. Ye Lin handed the jar in his hand to Li Ting, and then took the box.

"Son, why are you going?" Hearing that Ye Lin was going out, Li Ran, who was cooking, asked.

"I'm going to feed them. ”

By the way, why didn't Xiaoying come back with you?"

"When I came back, Xiao Ai lost five cents, and when we came back, we saw her crying at the mouth of the alley, so I asked Zhai Ying to send her back. ”

Hearing Ye Lin say this, Li Ran nodded and said, "This kid, why are you crying if you lose five cents? ”

"Okay, go back and ask her yourself! I've already asked Zhai Ying to bring her over for dinner. ”

Ye Lin went out after speaking, he is also very busy all day and night now, and the uncles in Pigeon City can no longer collect food stamps, they can only collect some wine stamps, industrial rolls or something.

Despite this, Ye Lin still had to take it back, but it was changed from once a day to once a week.

It may be that the cooperation has been going on for a long time! Several uncles are very relieved of Ye Lin.

Ye Lin went to the square first, collected the tickets in the hands of several uncles, and then went to the yard where the bicycles were placed.

When Ye Lin came over, Uncle Jiang was already waiting for him.

"Ye Lin, you can be regarded as here. ”

"I'm sorry, Uncle Jiang, I went out for something just now. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, this is the money from selling sweet potatoes today, you click on it. ”

"No need. Ye Lin took the money, then took out two and handed them over and said, "This is today's commission." ”

Today it is 10,000 catties of sweet potatoes, two cents per catty, that is 2,000 yuan, and one percent is just twenty.

"Ye Lin, don't give me money today. ”
