Chapter 129: Tao Tao is recruited
While waiting for Tao Tao to come back from playing, Dongmei fidgeted, and she thought of a series of serious situations. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
She thought that Tao Tao might have joined a pickpocket group and was manipulated by bad people behind the scenes, forcing children to use tweezers to steal money.
She thought that Tao Tao might have sneaked into a certain store and stole the money from the place where the money was placed.
What's more, she thought that Tao Tao had sneaked into the bank and stole a huge amount of cash from the safe......
Thinking about it, Dongmei felt nervous, a fourth-grade child, where is there such a powerful power, not to mention that the child is not a Jiangyang thief.
Although Dongmei imagined many possibilities, she just didn't expect that Taotao's money was obtained by stealing scrap iron and selling scrap iron.
Because she had something in her heart, Dongmei put down the noodles that had been reconciled, took out the steamed buns from the bamboo basket, mixed two dishes, and let Nana eat them first.
Nana was very unhappy, because her mother didn't make noodles for herself to eat, but from her mother's expression, she vaguely knew that her brother Taotao had caused a big disaster, so she didn't lose her temper.
At noon, Taotao finally came back at the meal, and came with Cui Xiaotao.
When Dongmei saw Taotao and Cui Xiaotao coming in together, the two of them hooked their shoulders and were embarrassed, Dongmei thought to herself, if Taotao was the main culprit, then Cui Xiaotao must be an accomplice.
When the two children came in, they were very calm and calm, and they didn't look panicked at all.
Tao Tao said to Dongmei without three hundred taels of silver here: "Mom, you asked me to invite Cui Xiaotao to our house for dinner, and I invited you over." “
Although Dongmei wanted to directly take out the more than 60 yuan that Nana found, put it in front of Taotao, and ask him why, she was afraid that this would directly scare Taotao, so she asked Taotao step by step and said: "Taotao, if you stole this money, or you got it from somewhere else, as long as you tell your mother the truth and return it to its original owner, then your mother will still forgive you." “
Taotao looked at Dongmei's serious expression, and immediately poked Cui Xiaotao next to him with his elbow and said, "Cui Xiaotao, tell my mother how this money came from." “
Cui Xiaotao took a step forward and said eloquently: "Auntie, I saw with my own eyes, the ten yuan was picked up by Taotao from the garbage heap on the other side of the bridge." “
Dongmei asked again: "Taotao, mom asks you again, you tell mom honestly, how did this money come from, are you really so lucky, you can pick up ten yuan at a time." “
You know, in that era, migrant workers worked for a day and earned ten yuan, who would be careless and throw a day's wages into the garbage heap?
Besides, in the large courtyard, there are people who are responsible for cleaning up the garbage, didn't they find it, but were they found by two children?
Tao Tao continued to quibble: "Mom, Cui Xiaotao and I promise you that the ten yuan was really picked up by me from the garbage heap.
At this time, Dongmei realized that the child's innocence and cunning coexist, if the child's cunning is connived, then his innocence will also become cunning, and when he grows up, cunning will become a crime, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Dongmei looked at Taotao and didn't speak, she felt that if she didn't show her hole cards, it seemed that it would not work.
At this time, Taotao calmly said to his mother: "Mom, is the meal ready, Cui Xiaotao and I have finished eating, we still have to go out to play." “
Dongmei breathed a long sigh of relief, then took out the sixty yuan that Nana found in the morning, looked at Taotao and said, "Taotao, since you picked up the ten yuan, then my mother now asks you, did you also pick up the money hidden behind the flower pot, inside the old shoes, and under the mattress?"
Seeing that the crumpled money in Dongmei's hand was the money she hid yesterday, why was it discovered by her mother today?
Tao Tao suddenly messed up, and said in a panic: "Mom, I also picked up this money, oh, no, this money is not mine, and I don't know whose it is?"
After speaking, Taotao hurriedly turned around and gave Cui Xiaotao a look, wanting Cui Xiaotao to help him excuse himself.
And just when Tao Tao turned around, Dong Mei saw a big eye-catching hole on the side of the dress Tao Tao was wearing.
Dongmei frowned, looked at the big hole in Tao Tao's clothes carefully, and thought, could it be that Tao Tao was really coerced to steal money, otherwise how could there be a big hole in his clothes that was scratched?
At this time, Cui Xiaotao spoke, he thought of a way to deceive Dongmei and said, "Aunt Yin, I gave this money to Taotao, because we have a good relationship, so I gave Taotao so much money." “
A child is a child after all, Cui Xiaotao's words are obviously different from Taotao's words.
Dongmei looked at Taotao and said, "Taotao, you said that the money is not yours, why did Cui Xiaotao say that he gave you this money, and where did the money come from?"
Taotao originally thought that Cui Xiaotao, who could speak well, would help him free himself in front of his mother, but he didn't expect Cui Xiaotao to help him.
His face turned red, his mood was extremely nervous, and he said indecipherably: "Mom, this money was indeed given to me by Cui Xiaotao, because our names are very similar, just a small word, so he gave me so much money." “
Dongmei saw from Taotao's eyes that Taotao was lying.
So, Dongmei looked at Cui Xiaotao and said, "Xiaotao, since you can give Taotao so much money as a child, then when your father comes back, I will go to your father Cui Dongbei and ask, how much money does he give you to eat every time he goes on a business trip, and you can give so much money to your classmates?"
Hearing that Dongmei was going to ask her father, Cui Xiaotao was scared all of a sudden.
He knew that if his father knew that his money was coming from an unknown source, he would definitely discount his doglegs.
Cui Xiaotao was extremely nervous, very scared, looked at Dongmei and said: "Auntie, in fact, this money is Taotao's, not I gave it to Taotao, please Auntie, don't go to my father, otherwise he will kill me." “
Seeing that Cui Xiaotao had betrayed himself for profit, Taotao turned his head, glared at Cui Xiaotao angrily and said, "Xiaotao, how can you betray me?"
Cui Xiaotao said scaredly: "If your mother goes to find my father, my father will definitely know that I stole scrap iron, and he will definitely hang me up and beat me when the time comes." “
After speaking, Cui Xiaotao ran away from the door, leaving Taotao alone.
Taotao saw Cui Xiaotao run away and knew that the matter had been revealed.
He thought that his mother would beat him, so he was ready to run away.
Dongmei's eyes were quick, she grabbed Taotao's arm and said, "Taotao, as long as you tell your mother what bad things you have done, as long as you follow your mother to apologize to others and return the things you stole from others, then your mother will promise not to beat you." “
Although Dongmei had already told Taotao that she would not beat him, Taotao was still reflexive, squatted down, then raised her hands, protected her body and said: "Mom, I will do everything, as long as you don't beat me, I will tell you everything that happened." “
Dongmei pulled Tao Tao up from the ground, then let him sit on the stool, looked at him and said, "I won't beat you, you hurry up and tell me what happened now, we still have time to make amends, otherwise it will be too late for us to cry after the time to remedy." “
Tao Tao was very scared, he trembled, 1510, and told Dongmei everything about the whole thing.
After listening to the whole process, Dongmei couldn't close her mouth in surprise, and cold sweat couldn't help dripping on her forehead.
She said in her heart that today's children are completely different from the children of their time.
Such an older child already has a strong sense of money, and through a series of planned, premeditated, complex cooperation, and accurate calculations, he has obtained so much money.
Dongmei couldn't help but think of their time, the older children all worked in the fields with their parents, the younger children played with their younger siblings on their backs, and the older children took care of the younger children, where did they have time to do these crooked things.
Dongmei gasped, looked at Tao Tao and said, "Let's go, now you take me to the old woman's house who collected scrap iron, and redeem the drill bit you sold, otherwise, if you lose something as valuable as the drill bit, you will all have to go to jail." “
Hearing that he was in prison, Tao Tao sat on the ground in a frightened fit and said, "Didn't the teacher say that you will only go to prison if you are at least eighteen years old and commit a crime, and I am only twelve years old, so I will also go to prison?"
Dongmei frightened Taotao and said: "Even if you don't go to jail now, when you graduate from high school and reach the age of eighteen, you will be put in jail." “
Hearing this, Tao Tao's face turned blue with fright, and he hurriedly took Dongmei to the old woman's house to collect scrap iron.
At this time, the old woman was about to carry the scrap iron collected recently to the county's scrap purchase center and sell it for some money, but she met Dongmei who entered the door with Taotao.
After Dongmei explained the situation to the old woman, the old woman still returned the drill bit to Dongmei very reasonably.
Dongmei also paid the price of four hundred yuan for this.
As for the other scrap iron, Dongmei only redeemed some relatively new parts when she was sure that there were no valuables, and Dongmei was ready to compensate the machine repair station, pipe station, boiler team and other institutions for other scrap items.
When Dongmei went to return the drill bit, she felt that this incident was committed by the children's gang, and all the parents of the children who committed the crime must take the children to apologize with them, even if they paid all the losses alone in the end.
Because in this way, all children can understand that stealing scrap iron for money is wrong and has a price.
If only one child goes, then Taotao realizes his mistakes, and the other children realize their mistakes, they will definitely continue to make them, then not only the children, but also the parents of the children.
So, Dongmei took the children and went door to door to explain the reason.
First of all, Dongmei took Taotao to Pidong's house.
It just so happened that at this time, Pidon's father returned from a break from the drilling team and stayed at home.
Pi Dong's father is illiterate, he is the most front-line and grass-roots worker, when he heard Dongmei's story, he scolded Pi Dong, Lao Tzu is not here, you are still turning the sky upside down, you dare to do this kind of thing of stealing chickens and touching dogs.
After saying that, Pi Dong's father indiscriminately grabbed Pi Dong and beat him violently, until the beaten Pi Dong's skin was open and he couldn't get up on the ground.
Dongmei watched Pi Dong's father beat Pi Dong to death, she was beside her, while pulling, and persuaded: "I came to tell you about this matter, not to let you beat the child violently, but to let you take the child and follow me to apologize, so that the child can realize his mistake and repent......"
Pi Dong's father couldn't listen to Dongmei's words at all, he was beaten violently, and felt that only by beating violently could he relieve his hatred of iron and steel.
Dongmei saw that Pi Dong's father didn't mean to take Pi Dong to apologize to the unit at all, so she came to Fan Wei's house again.
In order to prevent the incident of Pi Dongjia from repeating itself on Fan Wei, Dongmei still spared the circle very tactfully when she spoke, and only then did she explain the truth of the matter to Fan Wei's mother.
Fan Wei's mother only went to the second grade of primary school, and when she came out of the countryside with Fan Wei's father, she had basically forgotten all the words she had learned.
Compared with Dongmei, a high school student, she is obviously much simpler and rude.
To Dongmei's surprise, Fan Wei's mother was still like Pi Dong's father, beating Fan Wei all over her body and bruising her body, and she couldn't stand up.
And Dongmei, who was standing next to her, couldn't pull it anymore.
