60,000 yuan, it doesn't seem like much, Shi Lei has spent more than 100,000 yuan in the past three or four weeks, which almost made the three people in the same dormitory believe that he is a well-disguised rich second generation.
However, Shi Lei is not really a rich second generation, those money must be spent, and the real Shi Lei is still poor.
After tossing and turning all night, Shi Lei couldn't sleep peacefully, he was thinking all the time about how to help Sun Yiyi solve the 60,000 yuan of surgery and postoperative expenses, and it was best to have a little more, so that Sun Yiyi could avoid worries and take care of her mother with peace of mind until she recovered.
After grinding until dawn, Shi Lei couldn't fall asleep, and his mind was full of 60,000 yuan.
Several times, he wanted to negotiate with the scepter with the black card, perhaps, as in the novel, he could make a deal with the devil in exchange for everything he needed. The scepter and the devil are actually similar, although it gives a lot of money to the person who gets the black card, but it is like a sword of Damocles, always hanging above Shi Lei's head, and a negligence may pay for his life.
Shi Lei was sure that the scepter would solve his immediate dilemma, but he was also sure that the scepter would make him pay a price that he would never be able to afford.
To save people, or to be alone, Shi Lei hopes that both can be done.
Picking up his mobile phone, Shi Lei dialed a call and went out.
"Yo, son, why did you call so early? Let me tell you, your mother and I have been working hard for more than 20 years, and now that you have finally provided you to your senior year, you hurry up and confirm the job for me. If you can't find a good job, look back at how I'll fix you!"
Originally, Shi Lei wanted to talk to his parents and ask them if they could help Sun Yiyi's mother, but his father's first words almost made Shi Lei give up.
Yes, the family is not very rich, the parents combined, it is an income of five or six thousand yuan a month, and the tuition and miscellaneous expenses are 10,000 yuan a year, in order to make Shi Lei's life in school a little better, the living expenses given to him every month are close to two thousand, and the rest of the money is enough for the normal expenses of the family. Shi Lei has been in college for three years, and there is almost no way to add any big items at home, and a TV has been used for almost ten years, and his parents have long wanted to change it but are reluctant. may still have some savings, but Shi Lei also knows that 60,000 yuan is also a lot of money for his family, and he can't open that mouth.
"Son, why don't you speak!Is there not enough money?" Shi's father obviously lowered his voice, accompanied by footsteps, it seemed that he had walked to the balcony to talk to Shi Lei on the phone.
"Is 500 yuan enough? I gave a bonus of 600 yuan last month, I didn't tell your mother, I drank a little wine with your Uncle Luo two days ago and spent 100, I'll call you." Don't tell your mom about this money, I was thinking of buying her a small gift for your mom and I on our wedding anniversary next month. You're looking for a job now and need money, I'll send it to you first......"
Shi Lei suddenly felt that his eyes were a little sour, and he wanted to open his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.
"No, I recently took over a tutor, and I can earn more than 200 a week, which is enough. I just miss you and my mom a little bit, give you a call. ā
"Have you found a tutor job, but this can only be done part-time, don't be too tired, tell me and your mother when you are short of money, no matter what, we will definitely take care of you before graduation." When you graduate, we are still thinking about finding relatives at home to scrape together some money, and take out our savings over the years to buy you a smaller house in Wudong. You know, your mother and I have just this ability, we can only give you a down payment, and you are responsible for the monthly payment. ā
Listening to his father's voice, Shi Lei was sad for a while, and he no longer had the ability to speak.
"It's okay, you keep your money for yourself, your son has the ability, he must find a good job, buy a big house when the time comes, and take you and my mother over to live!"
"Haha, my son must have the ability! Your mother called me, I have to hurry in. I'll call you the 500 yuan when I go back!" After speaking, my father hung up the phone in a hurry, and it didn't take long for Shi Lei to see a transfer message of 500 yuan from my father on WeChat.
He couldn't help but feel more and more sad.
The road to find home is broken, and Shi Lei's parents should still be able to come up with the money, but once Shi Lei opens his mouth, I am afraid that the old couple will also fall into deep contradictions.
On the one hand, they hope to use this money to give Shi Lei a down payment for even a smaller house in Wudong, on the other hand, they are also very kind people, and when they learn about the situation at Sun Yiyi's family, they can't bear to say that they don't help.
Shi Lei knows very well how contradictory they will be if he tells his parents about Sun Yiyi's mother's situation.
Forget it, let's figure it out for yourself.
"Stone, where is your computer, hurry up and take it out for my brother!" Tu Ming came back after brushing his teeth, saw Shi Lei standing at the door of the dormitory in a daze, patted him on the shoulder and said.
An unintentional sentence made Shi Lei's mind have a flash of inspiration.
That's right, computers!
Shi Leili didn't pay attention to Tu Ming, entered the dormitory like a whirlwind, picked up the computer and put it back as it was, and went out, without even brushing his face or washing his teeth, no matter how the three roommates behind him shouted at him.
Rushing into the self-service bank, Shi Lei inserted the black card into the ATM, and after the scepter appeared, Shi Lei asked eagerly: "Great master, your humble slave wants to ask you, am I almost satisfied with this week's quota?"
The voice of the scepter is neither male nor female: "Why do you ask such a question again? Stupid fellow, it's been more than three weeks, which expenses will be counted in the quota and which can't, can't you still summarize the simplest pattern?"
"I just want to make sure, please tell me the great master!"
"What are you doing with this computer early in the morning? The amount of money you will come into contact with in the future will be larger and larger, and by that time, you will know that this computer of more than 70,000 is not worth mentioning. If I were you, I would learn how to splurge it, instead of showing this kind of bargain with this kind of stingy face. ā
Shi Lei heard the meaning of the scepter's words, and the consumption of this computer had been included in the quota.
He rolled his eyes and changed his question: "Then, great master, whether or not I spend with the amount you have given, what I have bought is completely mine, right?"
"Nonsense, as long as you spend the quota given to you, no matter what you buy, of course it's your thing. Okay, okay, early in the morning, disturbing people's dreams, are you not happy on any part of your body? Do you want me to help you get rid of the itchy parts?"
Shi Lei felt that he had found a solution, and immediately said with a smiling face: "Don't don't, great master, why do you want to be like me." Hurry up and get some sleep again, I won't bother!"
For the first time in his life, Shi Lei took the initiative to withdraw from the black card and left the self-service bank with a smug smile on his face.
It's just that he didn't notice that although he had pulled out the black card, the scepter on the screen had not disappeared, but said in a very low voice: "What a stupid guy, you think you are smart, you think you can hide from me with that little bit of care? Alas, I thought I had met a good slave, and it seems that I was going to be ready to develop the next slave again. This time is really too short. ā
Then, the scepter gradually faded away, truly disappearing.
