Chapter 37: Where Did the Money Come From?
Erbao's buttocks hurt, and he immediately opened his mouth and cried. Because people are upside down, they are uncomfortable to be suffocated, and their faces are red with tears.
Seeing that he knew that he was scared, Dabao turned Erbao upside down and put it there directly, and Erbao suddenly threw himself into his mother's arms aggrievedly.
"Mom, my brother beat me again, and my ass turned red. Woooooooo After saying that, he wanted to take off his pants with his little hands to see if his buttocks were red. But the strength was too small, and I couldn't get it down for a long time, so I had to give up.
I thought that my mother would cover him this time and murder my brother, but I didn't want my mother to become iron-faced and selfless this time.
I only heard her say earnestly: "Bao, your brother is right, children can't take this money." Tell your parents what you want to eat and buy, and we'll buy it for you. Besides, we haven't figured out how the money came from, so you spent it, and what if something happens?"
This sudden richness also seems to be a trouble.
Although Erbao is a little naughty, he is still an obedient good boy, after listening to his mother reasoning with him, he sniffed, took back some tears, and asked weakly: "Then Mom, after you figure out where this money comes from, can you buy me Xiaolongren and chewing gum to eat?"
After speaking, he opened a pair of big black eyes, and looked at the money in his mother's hand pitifully, without blinking his eyes, for fear that if he blinked, the money that could buy Xiaolongren sour plums would be gone.
"Absolutely. Dad will give you a dollar right now, and you can use it for yourself. ”
After Ni Cheng finished speaking, he took the second treasure, reached out and took out a yuan from the pocket of his clothes, and put it in the palm of the second treasure.
Erbao is rich, and his heart is comfortable, so he stopped crying.
Holding the one yuan in his hand high, he said loudly, "Oh, oh, Erbao is rich." ”
It was as if it was holding hundreds of large tickets.
Looking at Erbao's little appearance so satisfied, Wei Ning'er felt a little sour in her heart.
At this time, Ni Cheng paid attention to his wife's hand and urged: "Hurry up and count how much money is here?" ”
His wife couldn't help but look at him and said, "You are still dreaming, if your parents were well, they would have come back a long time ago, and they would have waited until now." And I don't think there's much of it here. ”
After speaking, she dipped some saliva on her mouth with her hand and counted them one by one. Some of them were fast, and she was afraid that she would have to start all over again for fear of making the wrong count, so she counted very slowly.
There are a lot of coins in this stack, all of which are small denominations, and when she finishes counting, she reports a number. "42 pieces!"
"How can it be 42? Ni Cheng looked at his wife, twisted his eyebrows, and fell into deep thought. Obviously, he wanted to find this kind person from the people he knew.
"Isn't it? If people give money, don't they all pay a whole ten hundred dollars? There is also a five-cent bill, all crumpled together. ”
Ni Cheng didn't bend down to pull the peach bag, and there was nothing below except peaches.
Hearing her sister-in-law say this, Wei Ning'er couldn't help but interject.
"Brother, this is definitely not sent by my parents. If they send it, there must be a letter. Wei Ning'er took a piece of money, looked at it in her hand, and put it in front of her nose to smell it, as if there was a faint smell of tobacco.
And said, "Isn't our dad a smoker?"
Ni Cheng saw that the two things his sister said were to the point, and he also broke his illusions. nodded, and then said: "But if it wasn't sent by my parents, then who would give it." Gave money, and gave back food. ”
"This is Yangshan's peach, I heard that the price on the market is not low, who has such a great ability to do so much. "Ni Cheng is also knowledgeable, and when the conditions at home were good, he could occasionally eat once or twice.
The peaches of Yangshan, known as the peach fairy, the king of peaches. The skin is thin and juicy, but such a good variety, just packed with this snakeskin bag, is really a bit brutal.
"We have to hurry up and crush these peaches on the ground of the stall house. ”
A sentence reminded the husband and wife, and the two immediately got busy.
In the end, they counted them, and there were sixty or seventy peaches, each of which had to be 3-4 taels, and more than fifty were dozens of catties.
Looking at such a beautiful peach, Ni Cheng wondered again: "Who is so kind to send us peaches." This peach is fresh, if our parents specify that they can't send fresh fruit, they can send two clothes and toys to the children, it will be very good. Did someone else we know send it?"
"You see, the money used to be folded, but now it's neatly organized. It may be a hasty, impromptu decision, or maybe it is for other reasons, so the money is crumpled. ”
Ni Cheng felt that his sister's analysis made sense.
Busy asked, "Who do you think will send this?"
Wei Ning'er also didn't know what to ask, and said a little helplessly: "Look at the weight of this bag, it is estimated that it is not a walk to our village, if you don't know if you ask our village, have you seen someone using a car or something, holding a big snakeskin bag, probably so big." ”
"If it's a camel, there will be bicycle prints, so I'll go outside and take a look. ”
Because of this new discovery, the eyes of the brother and sister lit up with excitement, and they hurriedly went outside to look at it, and asked Dabao where they found the bag.
Dabao ran to the dog's cave and stretched out his hand to show them.
Wei Ning'er was outside the courtyard wall, sending half a big footprint, but unfortunately the other footprints were covered by the grass.
That's a bit of a coincidence.
Wei Ning'er asked Pudding to help him find it, but Pudding said that he was hungry and had no strength to work. Angry, she rolled her eyes and couldn't help but say hatefully: "Then you continue to be hungry." ”
Ni Cheng found traces of bicycles or other cars outside.
Seeing that the result turned out to be like this, Ni Cheng's wife couldn't help but interject and said, "Mo didn't send it from your uncle, for the sake of the last time." "Ni Cheng's father has two brothers, but the relationship between them is very average, especially Ni Cheng's parents have no news, and Ni Cheng's life is very tight, and the other two rooms see them hiding far away. even felt that if I said a few more words to him, I was afraid of being touched by them.
Last time, Ni Cheng's wife left a piece of land in the vegetable garden for Grandpa Ni and Grandma Ni, and quarreled with the uncle, but now the two families have not spoken.
"Just his iron, save it. ”
Ni Cheng felt that distant relatives were not as good as close neighbors, and Aunt Li next door was better than his uncles and uncles.
"Dacheng, you said that this peach and money, could it be that Director Shen sent it later?"
Hearing his wife say this, Ni Cheng was stunned and muttered, "No." He said no, but his tone was not so firm.
After all, such a thing is estimated to be capable of being done by him.
Sympathetic to their family's situation, after seeing their family's situation, he turned around and asked others to send money and peaches again.
I was afraid that they would know, so I sent it over quietly.
"Hey, in that case, Director Shen is really good. ”
