Troubled by this incident, he was upset, and after Su Mu gave advice, he left Boss Han, who was deep in thought, and left without guilt, because he was not absent from work for himself, but for a poor old woman.

In this era, it is not easy to collect information, except for asking experts, the only way is to obtain knowledge through a large number of books, the Internet cannot bring people much convenience for the time being, his private money is bet, and there is no money to consult lawyers whose fees are calculated by the hour, so Su Mu went to the largest library in the Chinatown area, trying to find a legal basis for his actions.

Tomorrow is the day when the Olympics are all over, and in recent days, Su Mu has often fallen into a state of anxiety and boredom, and occasionally even regrets that his brain was hot at the time, and he made so many bets, and it was too late to regret it.

At this moment, when I came to the bookshelf full of legal documents, I simply sorted out my thoughts, and figured out what kind of content I needed to find, and I couldn't just rely on an impulse to help ask for relief, but I had to have the confidence to do it, and I ran to ask for it like a fly without a head or brain, and the final result would definitely be to be driven out, and a lot of time would be wasted.

Only look for provisions on social welfare, if it is in a large professional law firm, there will be a special archive, which stores a large number of past judgments, and judges can use it as the basis for final judgments, but Su Mu can't reach those, although he can find some way to get free legal aid, but it is too time-consuming, maybe a year or two to go through the entire process, for the efficiency of the US official system, Su Mu really has no confidence in the efficiency of the US official system.

To figure out what he wants to do, he only needs to find faults, that is, problems that will cause Grandma Lin to not get benefits, such as having paid taxes in the United States to be eligible.

Fortunately, she has not been able to meet the tax standard, which cannot be used as an argument to criticize her, judging from Grandma Lin's age, even if she goes to court, the judge will give sympathy and help her get relief money, which has increased to more than 90% in Su Mu's heart.

Reading novels is very fast, but because it involves complex legal provisions, he spent more than three hours in the library, and hundreds of books filled two shelves were all flipped through by him, only looking at the aspects that might be used, it was precisely because of his good memory that Su Mu wanted to be a lawyer before, not a doctor, and I have to say that he does have the talent to become a lawyer.

……

I didn't go home at noon, and I didn't have to inform my family, and they thought they were still working at a convenience store.

There is a little pocket money on the body, foreigners often have misunderstandings about the United States, thinking that the dollar is valuable, Americans are very rich, if the American money is taken to other countries with low exchange rates, it is indeed very valuable, but in the United States, high income also means high prices, don't look at the Su family's annual income of one or two thousand dollars, get Xiangjiang, or Huaxia and other areas can be at ease for a long time, but in the United States is only enough to pay Sumu's private high school tuition.

The price of a McDonald's hamburger set is about four to five US dollars, which is converted into more than 40 yuan, with the per capita income of China in this era, almost a person's monthly salary, and in the United States is only enough to buy a hamburger package, after adapting to life in the United States, few people will migrate to other countries.

Su Mu had lunch at McDonald's, and before it was time to go to work, he rested in the store for a while, and planned to call Grandma Lin together, but thinking that the other party was old, he thought it would be better to ask first.

When it was almost one o'clock, he asked the roadside police, walked to the location of the Social Security Administration, and for the first time went back to that kind of place to deal with things, he felt that he had not made a mistake and was called to the office by the teacher to be nervous.

American taxpayers keep these civil servants, and after figuring out this, they don't have much majesty, it's probably like paying a housekeeper to help with all kinds of things, not only Su Mu, but the vast majority of Americans think so, if the president is at fault in the first place, the citizens can even directly blame him.

The responsibility of the Social Security Administration is to distribute social benefits to people in need, and now that the benefits are not in place, they are the first people to look for.

The street at his feet is very familiar, Su Mu used to be here, but he didn't notice that the Social Security Administration was also here, there are two stone lions at the entrance of a Chinese-style courtyard, the gate is painted red, this is a private museum, I was led by my parents to visit it when I was a child.

And the small building next to it, the door says "Social-Security-Administration", not in the wrong place, after entering, you can see someone waiting, the reception is arranged in the hall, a Chinese girl directs people to wait in front of different windows, like a bank counter, but there is no glass, it is not yet work time, those white people laugh and talk about something.

Su Mu finally understood why Grandma Lin couldn't get the relief money, and it was strange that the white man went to help register, and she could understand it, this was inappropriate, so many Chinese people in Chinatown who didn't understand English should hire some Chinese employees.

After asking the information desk, Su Mu came to the window in charge of registering for the Social Security Living Allowance, fortunately, there was no one in line here, there was a blonde white man with many freckles on his face, he looked less than thirty years old, as if he had just woken up, and was in a daze.

He sat down and said, "I'm sorry, I want to ask about something, can you help?"

The other party turned his head to look at Su Mu, nodded and said, "What can I do to help you." ”

"That's right, there is an old lady surnamed Lin in my neighbor's neighborhood, who is over eighty years old this year, I want to ask ......"

Before Su Mu finished speaking, a registration form was placed in front of him, and the other party continued: "Fill this out first, I won't use it in the afternoon, we will have a holiday tomorrow, wait...... Come back on Tuesday, I'm not here on Monday. ”

I took the watch speechlessly, and saw that the other party closed his eyes again and lay down, it seemed that the preparations in the morning were not needed for the time being.

I went home through the long street, and when I went to Grandma Lin's house, she was making zongzi at home, and she could smell the smell of damp and moldy when she stood at the door, the house was in the alley, only more than ten square meters, and there was no light all year round, and it was very stuffy.

After talking about the cause and effect, she asked her to help fill out the form, and accidentally found the citizen's social security number in a large number of documents that she couldn't understand, which helped Su Mu a lot.

Taking this troublesome matter on himself in a daze, Su Mu understood that the next step would definitely not be easy, after all, no one wanted to admit that they had made a big mistake, left a poor old man in the corner for so many years, and took out the money......
