Chapter 107: The Truth Behind the Five Dimes
It was time for dinner again, and when Li Jiaming, who had helped Mr. Wang change a stack of test papers, returned to the dormitory, everyone had already finished eating, and they were getting together to brag excitedly, and there were a bunch of empty lunch boxes thrown next to them. Facing the door of the dormitory, he saw him come in, pointed to his box and said, "Jiaming, your aunt has sent food." ”
Hearing the greeting of the boys, a group of men either raised their heads or turned their heads to look at them all, and the swelling of Mao Ling's face on the left side was extremely ugly.
"Win?"
"Well, the one who was short-lived, I beat him for a meal (meal) and was honest, and I also lost eight dollars a dollar. ”
"Oh, you talk, I'll eat. ”
After winning the battle, Mao Yan was excited, and responded: "Oh, we helped you eat half of your dishes, it's a pity that it's hot and rancid!"
Damn, what is this called? Is it hot this day? Eat Lao Tzu's food, or do Lao Tzu a favor?
Li Jiaming, who couldn't cry or laugh, looked at the vegetable bottles and lunch boxes on the box, and there were only three and a half bottles left in the three cans of vegetables, which was not bad, so he left half for himself, and he could not eat the unpalatable boiled vegetables tomorrow.
I was really hungry, Li Jiaming opened the lunch box and vegetable bottle, scrambled eggs with onions, fried meat with zucchini, and fried small river fish, and knew at a glance that it was sent by the second aunt, and the other aunts were reluctant to fry such a good dish. After a while of gobbling up, Li Jiaming listened carefully to the excited Mao Yan's bragging.
It's not bad, the current guys are all affected by the TV series, a fifth-grade guy went to the boys' dormitory in the second year of junior high school to fight, and dozens of people actually surrounded them to watch them go head-to-head, and none of them persuaded or helped. After that kid lost, his classmates and friends actually laughed at him for losing the face of the second year of junior high school.
This era is really simple, they are braver and more capable of fighting, and if they can't fight, they will admit defeat cleanly, and in a few years, they will have to become more brothers and richer than whom!
Li Jiaming also listened to Mao Ling's blowing happily, and only interrupted when he was full: "Mao Ling, tomorrow after school, lend me your fishing net for two days." ”
Usually the fishing nets at this time are not easy to borrow, now is the season for the breeding of river fish, the fish elephant rushes upstream, but this year Mao Yan's parents are making money on the construction site, how can they have time to go to the river to release the net to catch fish? Mao Ling agreed, and said with a smile: "Jiaming, Brother Hao will come tomorrow?"
Whether Dong Hao will come tomorrow, Li Jiaming is really not very sure, he wants to get some fish just to satisfy his hunger. River fish is different from the fish you buy on the street, the meat is tighter and much more delicious.
"You didn't eat enough last time, did you? Okay, continue to eat at my place tomorrow night, you go back early with Xue Ling, go to the river and drag two nets, and see if you can get some gui (mandarin fish)." ”
"Hey".
Mao Ling, the leader of the group, and Su Ling happily agreed, and went to Li Jiaming's place for dinner, not to mention that he ate well, the key is to have face! People are different from people like himself, they are geniuses, and when they go to tutor his third sister in the evening, even the students in their class go to him for advice; moreover, they are ruthless and evil enough, and Mao Tong, who is taller than the third junior high school boy, is honest in front of him, and he is not afraid of being beaten by him? More importantly, Li Jiaming is more generous and magnificent, than all the bosses in the school. He was followed by a group of small radish heads, but they would not be like Li Jiaming, who was a little delicious and would still think about his friends.
With such a boss, can you get rid of it in the future? Most of them, including the group of little radish heads behind them, don't know, and they don't have the foresight to think about things so far away in the future, but they know that they are messing with Li Jiaming, and now they have a bright face!
After eating, Li Jiaming threw the lunch box on the box, said hello to the sue guy, and left on his own, and the hairy and thin dogs who were gathering in the crowd immediately got up to follow. Washing lunch boxes, taking rice and steaming rice, these things are the work of the younger brothers, and he, the eldest boss, doesn't have to worry about it.
At present, the admission rate of the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination is extremely low, and if there is no student who can take the lead and convince the public, it is a plate of loose sand, everyone plays their own, each class plays each class, and each small group plays each small gang. If there is a demon like Li Jiaming, it is easy to form two distinct worlds among students, one is a serious student, and the other is a fool, and he himself is the recognized boss of both worlds!
There will be rules for mixing, the boss supports the younger brother and provides armed protection, and the younger brother does some work for the boss, which is very fair. Li Jiaming could only order Mao Ling and tell them not to let the small tribute, but it was impossible for them not to enjoy any privileges.
Out of the dormitory building, the three of them walked to the playground, and the thin dog who followed behind saw that there was no one next to him, and whispered: "Brother Jiaming, Mao Ling made that guy lose a dollar, and only gave eight men five dimes, and he got five dimes himself." ”
Li Jiaming's footsteps didn't stop, and he also whispered: "Don't care, it's their own business, Mao Ling helped the snot ghost fight, and he should have five dimes." ”
"But the snotty ghost is his cousin?"
Cousin? Li Jiaming smiled, what is the reason for this? I wanted to ask Mao Ling for help 'at the beginning', but that kid was not only a small man with him, but his brother married his own lobby sister, and everyone was still a relative of the three suits, so he still received 50,000 yuan from himself. It's just that the kid dragged himself and his gang of subordinates to go to the provincial city overnight to drink a lot of wine, find a young lady, and spend the 50,000 yuan to finish the business. What did he say at the time?
Yes, 'Brothers, Ming Yan is my cousin, my youngest friend, and my sister-in-law's own brother. Brother and brother I have been asking me for help, he does not collect money and does not comply with the rules, Lao Tzu still has you short-lived debt collectors; Come on, everyone eats and drinks well, we have to find a few more beautiful girls to vent our anger, spend the money cleanly, and Lao Tzu will be happy when he abides by the rules!'
Those words sound reasonable and affectionate, but they are actually a few words of bullshit that fool those gangsters. If it weren't for the fact that his business was quite big at that time, maybe when he asked for it, I am afraid that he would keep half of the 50,000 yuan first, and then give half to his subordinates.
No one is a saint, how can they not have a little selfishness? If you help out, you don't want anything in return, and they are not Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva still needs mortal incense.
Li Jiaming explained these truths to Xigou for a long time, but he still half-understood and half-understood, and asked rhetorically: "Brother Jiaming, you helped us so much, didn't you see you asking me what Yeyem's mother wanted?"
This question really came to the point, and even the older Mao Tong stopped and looked at Li Jiaming. Although the teenage boys are very hot-blooded, they are all children of poor families, and they are sensible earlier than the rich children who have no worries about food and clothing. Even if the seven uncles are very united, it is external unity, and the internal matters involving money and goods are also clearly calculated.
The adults said that Li Jiaming and Wen Mei's elementary, junior high, and high school tuition fees were borne by them, but that was also proposed by them as adults, and Jiaming repeatedly refused to accept it. What is he trying to do with this kind of help? Brotherly feelings are brotherly feelings, but everyone is just a cousin of the princess, and they are not real brothers, how can there be any reason to spend seven or eight years in vain to help cousins?
'Hey, hey', Li Jiaming laughed a few times and asked rhetorically: "My second aunt came to deliver food today, do you also have one?"
"Hmm".
If my second uncle's family has no money, my second aunt will come to deliver the food, at most Wenwen and I will have it, don't even think about it. My help to you seems to you great, but it seems to me to be just a handy thing. Besides, our Li family is no better than other families, and there are fewer people in the first place, if you have a chance in the future, if there is something in my house, you can still stand by and watch?"
Li Jiaming's words are very sophisticated, but they are reasonable. Uncle Chuan Mengbo and they paid for their siblings' tuition, so in addition to supervising the study of these cousins, they also had to teach them the principles of human beings. It doesn't matter if you are busy without return, but if you really think that you are a good person without reciprocating, and relatives and friends should help for free, then you are wrong.
As long as they know that people have helped, they must take the initiative to repay them, and they will be willing to continue to help them in the future, and the road will be wider and wider.
