Chapter 60: A Gesture of Effort
After settling the account, Lotus walked around alone and then went back to school.
"What about Chen Cheng? What did you say? ”
Li Jiani saw him return to the classroom and immediately asked, she was also curious.
He looked at the girl in front of him who kept rubbing her little belly and said, "I didn't say anything, I went home after eating, what did you eat?" Eat a lot? ”
Li Jiani shook her head, looked left and right, and after finding that no one was paying attention, she pointed her finger downward.
Lotus was stunned for a moment, but she understood in an instant, and couldn't help but say: "You are so strange, you have never been on time." ”
"Hmph." Li Jiani turned her head and ignored her, where did she know why.
Lotus smiled brightly, fortunately, Li Jiani was not in pain, otherwise she might not be able to torture herself with her more and more out-of-the-box personality.
"Lotus, someone is looking for it outside." Li Wei, who was sitting in the front row, shouted.
Hearing this, Lotus stood up and walked out, thinking that it was Chen Cheng, it was very fast.
As soon as he walked out of the classroom, he saw Chen Xiaopang standing in the corridor with some anxiety and excitement.
"Chen Cheng, are you home? So fast, huh? ”
"yes, uh, I asked, probably a lot."
Chen Cheng's face was a little complicated, which was too far from what he had guessed before.
Lotus Flower Qi said: "Oh? How much? ”
Chen Cheng opened his mouth, embarrassed to speak at a critical time, he thought about it, and then gestured with his finger to make a number.
Lotus nodded amusedly, and said briskly: "Yes, no problem." ”
Chen Cheng was stunned for a moment, a little unclear whether he understood what he meant, and couldn't help but say: "Lotus, it's not 70,000." ”
"I know, 70, yes."
Lotus nodded, although he was also a little surprised, but it still didn't matter to him. And he believes that Chen Cheng's parents will not take this money easily.
"Really?" Chen Cheng's tone trembled a little.
"Yes, yes. You call your uncle and aunt now and ask them to come to school, and we'll wait at the door. Lotus simply handed the phone to Chen Cheng and motioned for him to call home. He knew that the little fat man must be very anxious
.
"Pump, pump, you know pump."
Chen's mother watched Chen's father smoke one cigarette after another, and complained upset.
"Hey" Chen's father sighed, and his wife quarreled.
Mother Chen softened her heart when she saw him like this, and she didn't continue to nag. Who is to blame for today's situation? It's just that the two of them have too weak awareness of prevention, which makes people take advantage of loopholes.
"Jingle Bell"
The couple looked at the ringing phone and felt even more miserable, as soon as the bell rang these days, it means that the debt collector can't wait. And these people are all relatives and friends, so the couple blames themselves even more.
"Why is life so bitter?"
Chen's mother's eyes were red, and she lowered her head and sobbed.
Dad Chen looked at the non-stop phone, hesitated for a while, and finally picked it up with a complicated face.
"Hello?" His voice trembled a little.
"Hey, Dad, I'm Chen Cheng." There was excitement in Chen Cheng's tone that could not be concealed.
Dad Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said angrily: "You kid, why don't you call if you don't go to school well?" Isn't it clean-up? ”
"Dad, I told Lotus about money, and he said it's no problem, can you come over now, we are at the school gate." Chen Cheng didn't care about his father's anger, he just wanted to solve the matter quickly and restore harmony to the family.
"Dad? Father? What about people? Chen Cheng shouted at the top of his voice.
Chen's father was stunned with the phone, was really willing to lend them money from his son's friend? Where did you get so much money at such a young age? He couldn't figure it out no matter how much he thought about it. Chen Cheng's shout brought him back to his senses, and he thought to himself what he was doing with so much. This is the case in my own family, and the most important thing is to get through the difficulties.
"Are you talking to him? Right? ”
"To make it clear, 700,000, Lotus is willing to lend us. Hurry up, class will be in a moment, and we will be waiting for you at the school gate. After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Dad Chen listened to the busy sound on the phone and didn't put it down for a long time, his face was very complicated, there was great joy and worry, how he hoped that this thing was true, but he was afraid that the two children had made a mistake.
Mother Chen noticed her husband's abnormality and wondered, "Old Chen, what's the matter?" ”
"Chen Cheng's classmate, lotus? Yes, it's a lotus, he said he was willing to borrow our 70W, now let's go over? Why are you going? ”
"What? What for? Are you stupid? Hurry up and get dressed! ”
"Oh, yes, yes, hurry up."
School Gate,
"Lotus, thank you."
Chen Cheng said a little embarrassed after returning the phone to the lotus.
"It's okay, you know what? I haven't thanked you for the video you helped me make. Lotus smiled, he is a very grateful person.
Chen Cheng grinned when he heard this, and he couldn't help but recall that time.
moment
"That's like my parents."
Chen Cheng kept stretching his neck to look around, and vaguely saw two people looking like his parents not far away.
Lotus also looked over, his eyesight was much stronger than Chen Cheng's. The man and woman in the distance looked a little anxious, and it was estimated that it was.
When the two of them got closer, Chen Cheng saw clearly, yes, it was his parents. He hurriedly waved his hand and ran over, and the lotus flower also walked up.
"Mom and Dad."
Chen Cheng saw that his parents were a little excited, Chen's father patted Chen Cheng with a smile, and then looked at the lotus flowers that were walking over.
"This is the lotus, right? I always hear Chen Cheng mention you, thanks to you for taking care of him. His tone trembled a little.
"Hello uncle and aunt." He greeted politely and said, "Let's not delay time, we have to go to class in a while, let's go to the bank, right?" ”
The two of them glanced at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes, and the two of them were really relieved at this point.
A group of four people came to the bank, and there were basically no vacant seats in the hall at this time, all of them were waiting for business with their cards.
Seeing this, Chen Cheng immediately complained: "Why are there so many people, when does this have to be queued?" ”
"yes, do you want to forget it today?"
Dad Chen said with some confusion, of course he hopes that it can be done today, but he can't delay other people's classes.
Lotus glanced at a few people and said with a smile: "No, come with me." ”
"Lao Chen, you and Xiaohe should go." Chen's mother pushed Chen's father and said.
"Oh, okay."
As if he remembered something, he followed the lotus into the inner hall of the CCB.
"Hello, pls yes"
Before the staff finished speaking, Lotus showed her card.
"Sir, this way, please!" The female staff spoke in a somewhat surprised and flattering tone, this was the first time she had seen Heika.
Chen's father didn't see what he was showing, but this kind of treatment still surprised him, and he kept guessing what kind of friend his son had!
"Chen Cheng, what does the Lotus Family do?" Chen's mother couldn't help but be curious.
"I don't know, I think I run a supermarket." Chen Cheng really didn't know, he didn't even know as much as Li Li, he didn't pay attention to this aspect of things.
"Open a supermarket? What kind of supermarket is so profitable? She muttered to herself, but she kept writing something with a pen and paper in her hand
After a while, Chen Cheng saw his father walking out with a happy face and lotus flowers, and hurriedly said, "Mom, they came out." ”。
Mother Chen looked up when she heard this, and when she saw Father Chen's face, she knew that it was done.
Dad Chen nodded at her and grinned, a little ugly, but from the heart.
Chen's mother's eyes were a little moist, she came to Lotus and handed him the paper in her hand and said, "Xiaohe, this time our family is thanks to you, you can take this IOU." ”
Lotus smiled kindly when she heard this, and said, "Auntie, you're welcome, Chen Cheng and I are good friends, you should help a little, I will accept this, uncle and aunt, you don't have to worry." ”
Both of them were relieved when they saw this, and the matter was temporarily over.
"It's going to be class soon,"
Chen Cheng was a little anxious, he didn't dare to be late.
"Yes, yes, you guys go to class, you must come to our house to play when you have time."
"Okay, uncle and aunt, then Chen Cheng and I will go first."
Looking at the figure of the two leaving, Chen's father and Chen's mother glanced at each other, and both of them had a deep sense of gratitude in their eyes.
Chen Cheng said goodbye to him in front of the classroom, "Lotus, I'll go in first." ”
"Go ahead."
Lotus nodded, and then walked slowly to her classroom.
Li Jiani waited for him to sit down and asked curiously, "Lotus, where are you going?" ”
Lotus thought about it, and told her what happened today.
"That's right, you're doing the right thing, and I'm rooting for you."
Lotus is not surprised by her reaction, Li Jiani is very kind, but sometimes people go crazy.
"But where did you get all that money? Ask Auntie if you want it? ”
Li Jiani felt that she needed to manage her accounts.
"No, I earned it."
Lotus said proudly, he didn't tell Li Jiani about gambling. Gambling on football is also gambling, and she will definitely be disgusted.
"What did you earn? How do you earn it? ”
Li Jiani is even more curious, she is with him every day, and she doesn't know when he earns money.
Lotus thought about it, and felt as if she couldn't make it up, so she whispered: "Remember when you were in the World Cup, right?" I made an investment over there. ”
"It's itching to death."
Li Jiani pushed him away, just talk, why do you have to stick it to your ears, it's still in the classroom. She was shy, and her little face was a little red.
"How much?"
Li Jiani ignored what she didn't invest, she knew that she didn't understand what Lotus said, so she simply asked the result.
Lotus smiled, thinking that if she told the truth, it would be a question of whether Li Jiani believed it or not. If she doesn't believe it, then she will keep asking, if she does, who knows if she will be stimulated.
"That's the number." He thought for a moment and held out four fingers.
Li Jiani nodded, thinking that 4 million is really amazing, it is not a lotus.
