Chapter 36: Blowing Comments
In order to do this business, Liu Xiuying had to dig out all kinds of ten yuan and five yuan bits and pieces from the old apron pocket. In the end, I borrowed it from the stall next door, forty. Make up five pieces of ten dollars, seven pieces of five dollars, plus four one-dollar bills, and ten one-dollar coins, and give them to each other.
During this period, the young man also urged her to hurry up because the old man was too slow, saying that he had something to do later, and he was in a hurry to catch the car. Otherwise, if you are late, the job will be gone.
The kind-hearted Liu Xiuying is also anxious for the other party. So the hundred-dollar bill was brought in, and I didn't pay attention to it. Until the next day, I went to the bank and prepared to put the 130 yuan I had saved this month into my passbook.
At this time, the bank staff informed her, "Grandma, this 100 yuan of yours is a counterfeit currency." I can't save it. ”
After Liu Xiuying heard this, she suddenly felt panicked and stunned in place, and her whole expression was suddenly clouded. She tried to say something, but in the end her mouth trembled and she couldn't say anything.
This 130 yuan is what she plans to leave for her son after she dies. Sometimes saving fifty a month, sometimes saving a hundred, is the only thing she can do for her son.
Now receiving 100 counterfeit coins is equivalent to half a month's hard work in vain.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world.
Looking at the 100 yuan bills returned by the bank teller, Liu Xiuying felt helpless and wandering. She looked at the female teller with sad eyes. And the female teller couldn't avoid her gaze. Although she couldn't bear to see the old woman, she was sad about it. But a hundred yuan was very heavy for the common people of that era.
Half a minute later, Liu Xiuying trembled and stretched out her wrinkled hand, and then silently put away the hundred yuan. She is strong and kind, and she did not lose her temper on the spot. It's just that when I turned around and left the bank, I suddenly remembered my son who was paralyzed at home. Then she shuddered and stretched out her hand, quietly wiping her eyes that were gradually moistening.
Now she is 63 years old, her body is not as good as day by day, and I am afraid that she will not have many years to live. The only one who can't rest assured is his son.
Liu Xiuying left the bank silently. What she didn't notice, however, was that there were two windows next to her. Zhou Shao's father, Zhou Zhengming, was coming to the bank with a passbook to withdraw his salary, a total of 890 yuan. Rely on this money to feed a family of four.
He looked at Liu Xiuying's clumsy figure when she left, and there was an indescribable pity and sentimentality. This made him think of his mother, if the old mother was still in this world, how good it would be for the family to be reunited......
Zhou Zhengming lowered his head and looked at the passbook in his hand that was about to bottom out. Then he finally walked out of the bank with a sigh and called out to Liu Xiuying in front.
"Grandma Liu, I can reimburse you for your 100 yuan counterfeit bill, I'll exchange it with you. Zhou Zhengming took out a precious 100 yuan from the family's living expenses and stuffed it into Liu Xiuying's hands.
After returning home, when his wife Li Lan happily took her husband's salary and was about to count the money. The rough hundred-dollar counterfeit bill immediately made her expression become serious.
"How can there be any fake money taken out of the bank?" Li Lan repeatedly looked at the 100 yuan counterfeit bill, and the more she looked at it, the more solemn her expression became.
Zhou Zhengming also knew that he couldn't hide it, so his expression was a little embarrassed, and he lied and said, "I was picking up the 100 yuan just now, and then a few people ran over and said that they dropped it." I gave it back to them, and they said it wasn't this one, and they were pulling me. And then I couldn't help it, so I ......"
Before her husband Zhou Zhengming's words were finished, I saw that Li Lan was so angry that she wanted to break off his pig brain!
"What kind of brains are you!? They pull you, and you can't do anything? Obviously they're cheating you out of your money! What do those people look like? Don't eat! Hurry out and find a place to buy something and get the money back. Li Lan didn't know the truth, and blamed her husband for all the faults.
Zhou Shao at the dinner table, Zhou Lailai ate without saying a word. The two also felt that their father was too confused.
It's just that what they don't know is that the reason why Zhou Zhengming lied was because he was worried that his wife would go to Grandma Liu and exchange the fake banknotes back.
Zhou Zhengming had no choice but to put on his coat again, took the 100-yuan counterfeit bill, and walked aimlessly on the street for more than half an hour without even eating a few bites of food. The cool breeze of the night made him shiver a little, and his stomach growled with hunger.
Under the bright yellow street lamps, those small traders and vendors who are still working hard for a living. Zhou Zhengming wanted to use the counterfeit banknotes several times, but in the end he couldn't bear it.
In the end, he returned home with the counterfeit hundred-dollar bill in his pocket.
"The money was spent?" asked his wife, Li Lan, in a low voice without much hope.
Zhou Zhengming shook his head and did not speak.
"Eat, the food is going to be cold. Li Lan reheated the meal for him, and the table was still steaming hot.
She said that she was angry just now. In hindsight, who isn't in a difficult situation. If you exchange this 100 yuan counterfeit bill for someone else, everyone will feel sad.
So Li Lan sighed and locked the hundred yuan in a drawer. Until the final move, it didn't cost any more......

Seeing this in the film, the fat house sitting in front of the screen couldn't help but be a little moved by these warm little things in the camera. There is no bloody abortion in the film, no ups and downs in the plot, no deliberate parting of life and death, and hysteria. All the shots can be said to be insignificant little things.
But it is these little things that make every character in the story kind and warm. From their ordinariness, the audience can always find their own shadow faintly. Their lives are a microcosm of many ordinary families.
The young lady next door who appeared later, Zhang Zixin. Quiet, beautiful, gentle, and is the crush of the boys in the whole alley. Zhang Zixin's sister Su Nawei is lively and active, a female man, and mingles with boys, which is completely opposite to her sister's personality.
A group of young people have known each other since they were young and grew up together. The relationship is so good that there is nothing to talk about, and it is intimate. made many viewers very envious after watching it, and they wanted to have such a good brother and sister.
At the end of the film, in Zhou Shao's youthful confession, the curtain came to an end. With a vague back, I can't tell if it's Zhang Zixin or Su Nawei. But none of that matters......
"Divine drama! Made! Divine drama!" After watching the whole film, the fat house, who had not been calm for a long time, couldn't help but burst into foul language in front of the computer.
He immediately refreshed the comments and found that the original only a few positive reviews had now increased to more than 40.
"Ahhh
This kind of quality micro-movie, 6 yuan is not spent in vain, it is much better than that kind of bloody youth drama and anti-Japanese drama. ”
