After returning to the dormitory, Zhou Yukun was bored playing with his mobile phone on the bed. Suddenly, the mobile phone made a pleasant ringtone, and a familiar name appeared on the screen - Aunt Xu Li.

In the two months since the start of school, this is the first time Zhou Yukun has spoken on the phone with Xu Li. It's not that he doesn't have affection for his adoptive parents, but it's because he is so grateful to the couple that he rarely contacts them.

After all, Zhou Yukun's position in his family is relatively embarrassing, coupled with Zhou Xiaorou's unkindness to him, Zhou Yukun also had to reduce contact with them in order to improve the relationship between their family.

After connecting the phone, Zhou Yukun said kindly: "Hey, auntie, you called me at this time, is there something wrong?" ”

"Hey, Yukun. Auntie is some, some miss you, and I haven't talked to you on the phone for a long time, so I'll call you to talk. ”

Xu Li's tone was a little slurred, but Zhou Yukun didn't care. "Oh, Auntie, don't worry, I'm doing well at school."

"How good you are at school...... Just have a good life......"

At this time, Zhou Yukun also noticed that Xu Li was a little abnormal, so he asked suspiciously: "Auntie, what's wrong with you, did something happen?" ”

On the phone, Xu Li sighed softly: "Alas, okay, I'll just say it directly." However, Yukun, don't blame me and your uncle! ”

“…… Just say it, I don't mind. At this time, Zhou Yukun already understood something in his heart.

"Well, you're such a sensible child, if you're really mine...... Forget it, I won't hide it from you. Recently, our family has been under a lot of financial pressure, not only to take good care of Xiaorou, who is about to take the college entrance examination, but also to ......"

When Zhou Yukun heard this, he fully understood what his aunt meant. Since Zhou Qin and Xu Li's salaries are not high, they add up to more than 5,000 per month, and there is not much left after excluding monthly family expenses. Moreover, Zhou Xiaorou also has to prepare for the college entrance examination this year, and she has to buy her a lot of school supplies and life supplements. Then, a month's salary will almost bottom out.

In addition, you have to pay for your living expenses every month, as well as tuition fees at the beginning of the school year. After such calculations, the aunt's family has long been unable to support the economy, and it is estimated that it took some of their previous savings to alleviate it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yukun couldn't help but feel ashamed, he lived a relaxed and comfortable life at school every day, but he didn't care about the conditions of his aunt's family at all, which was really too much.

Just when Zhou Yukun was blaming himself in his mind, Xu Li also explained a lot, and finally said reluctantly: "...... So, Yukun. We can only give you 500 for your living expenses next month, don't blame us! ”

Zhou Yukun hurriedly said: "Auntie, why do you say that, you have already helped me so much, how can I be embarrassed to embarrass you." Actually, five hundred is already a lot, I am definitely enough, don't worry! ”

"Alas, Yukun, we really have some ......"

"Well, I understand, Auntie, you don't need to say it anymore. By the way, I'm still a little anxious here, so I won't say much about it, five hundred a month is definitely enough, don't worry. I'm hanging, goodbye. Zhou Yukun hurriedly interrupted Xu Li's words and hung up the phone.

Hearing Aunt Xu Li's apologetic voice, Zhou Yukun felt very uncomfortable, obviously he was just a picked up child, but they could still care so much about themselves. Both of them are good people, and they must have argued for a long time before they were so hesitant to call themselves. Therefore, Zhou Yukun didn't want to embarrass them, so he shirked the problem and hung up the phone.

Lying quietly on the bed, Zhou Yukun kept thinking in his mind. Although he confidently said on the phone that 500 yuan was enough, it was completely reckless. As a result of becoming a Star Picker, he also found that the amount of food he ate suddenly increased a lot, at least twice as much as before. Therefore, after a month, just eating has to be **hundred.

So, how should I spend a month, is it so hungry? No, or go out and find a job by yourself, and it's better than having nothing to do all day long.

Thinking of doing it, Zhou Yukun got out of bed and cleaned up a little, and rushed out of the door in a hurry. But when he came to the bustling street outside the school, he was dazzled by all kinds of shops, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Wandering around the street blindly, his eyes pay attention to both sides from time to time. When I saw some busy restaurants, I rushed in and asked. As a result, he could only walk out disappointed and helpless, because the store was already full. Come to think of it, the business of the restaurant near the university must be booming, and there must be many students who want to work part-time.

Students from poor family conditions hurriedly found jobs around them as early as when they entered school, and there were few like Zhou Yukun who came to work two months after the start of school. Zhou Yukun, who was unwilling, carefully asked every hotel, but he was ruthlessly rejected.

Squatting beside a telephone pole, Zhou Yukun said dejectedly: "Alas, I didn't expect it to be so difficult to find a small job!" As he spoke, he angrily punched the telephone pole.

There was a muffled "bang", the telephone pole shook slightly, and a lot of dust drifted down from it. Frightened, Zhou Yukun jumped up from the ground, for fear that the telephone pole would not be able to withstand it and fall down. Fortunately, Zhou Yukun didn't use too much force, and the pole still stubbornly "survived".

Suddenly, he felt something hit on his head, and when he gently removed it from the top of his head, he found that it was a bright purple purse. Hey? How could this wallet fall from the sky, could it be because of the vibration of the telephone pole just now?

When I looked up, I saw that there was indeed a small iron bulge on the top of the telephone pole, which must have been the one that hung its wallet on.

After opening the wallet curiously, Zhou Yukun almost stared out his eyes in surprise. Because, because there is a thick stack of money in it, no matter how you look at it, it looks like at least tens of thousands of dollars.

Closing the wallet with both hands trembling, Zhou Yukun endured the greedy ** in his heart, after all, he was also in urgent need of money now, so much money fell from the sky inexplicably, and he also had the idea of taking it for himself.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yukun eased his excitement, and after opening his wallet again, he couldn't help but look at the tempting red banknote, but looked at it in other places. At this time, in a small mezzanine, Zhou Yukun pulled out a business card.

The business card is very sketchy, just a person's name and a phone number, and nothing else.

Alas, this money is not ownerless after all, so it is better to return it to its owner as soon as possible. After a battle between heaven and man in Zhou Yukun's heart, he finally made up his mind and dialed the phone.

After a long "beep" sound, the call was finally connected. Zhou Yukun asked a little nervously, "Hey, that, are you Ms. Lanxin?" ”

After a brief silence on the other end of the phone, a calm male voice came: "If you want to find Ms. Lan Xin, there is no one here." If you are looking for Mr. Lan Xin, there is one. ”

Zhou Yukun couldn't help but smile bitterly, there was only a name on this business card, I thought this Lan Xin was a woman's name, but I didn't expect ......, "Well, yes, I'm just looking for Mr. Lan Xin, can you let him answer the phone?" ”

"Oh, okay, I'm Mr. Lanxin, please tell me anything!"
