Chapter 10: The Money Is Lost

Chapter X

August 20 is the day when Zhang Cuilian School issues the admission notice.

Early in the morning, she first used a bicycle to carry a two-filament bag of medicine boxes to the pharmaceutical factory. Send the carton that you pasted yesterday over, and then get ready to go to school.

Two cartons are paid for one and a half cents, Zhang Cuilian can paste 500 a day, and she can earn three yuan and seven cents a day.

Now I have been working for a month, and I have saved 120 yuan in my hands. A few days later, she packed her things and prepared to go to college, so that she could stay in school for a semester without tuition or anything.

Zhang Cuilian calculated, if she found a part-time job when she was in school. Then go home from winter break and continue to paste cardboard boxes, and so on and so forth, you will definitely be able to finish the whole college.

But she never imagined that when she got a new batch of cartons from the pharmaceutical factory, she went home. When I put the three dollars and eight cents I made today back in my place, the money in the iron box was gone.

Zhang Cuilian was sweating profusely, and her heart was pounding. She rummaged through her room, even the kang mat was completely opened. She didn't see her own money, and she immediately thought that her parents might have embezzled the money.

Just as Zhang Cuilian was hurriedly roaring out, a dark and thin girl in the yard came over: "Zhang Cuilian, have you gone to school?" Your notice is down, Normal School! ”

Zhang Cuilian looked at it, although she looked younger, her silhouette was still the same as in the future. It was Leng Liping, the female class president of her class, who was the group of people who went to college that year. The family conditions are very ordinary, and it is also the school she told Zhang Cuilian that she only brought more than 80 yuan to the school back then.

The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, Zhang Cuilian did not say anything about the loss of the money she had worked so hard to save. She smiled dryly and said to Leng Liping: "I'm going to go, what about you get the notice?" ”

Leng Liping proudly raised the notice in her hand and said proudly: "Well, I was admitted to H University." I studied finance, and I want to go to the bank in the future! ”

Zhang Cuilian nodded, in the future, Leng Liping will indeed enter the bank as soon as she graduates. Before she died, Leng Liping, who was only in her early forties, was already the president of a branch.

She is the best classmate in their class, which shows that knowledge can indeed change fate.

Zhang Cuilian said goodbye to Leng Liping and locked the door of the house. In one breath, she ran to the intersection and saw her biological parents selling things under the shade of the tree.

Seeing Zhang Cuilian coming, Zhang's father smiled and said, "Cuilian, I just heard from your classmates that you were admitted to university!" ”

In this era, there are very few people who are admitted to universities, and today is the day of the notice. Whose child is admitted, that's all great news.

As soon as Zhang's father spoke, several people heard it. couldn't help but envy and praise, and Zhang's mother was even more proud to her tail when she heard this. said a lot of things that are very hard for children to study, and I didn't forget to ridicule Zhang Cuilian's uncle: "If we hadn't provided for my children to go to school, we would have built a big tiled house like my eldest brother's house." ”

The implication is that Zhang Cuilian's uncle couldn't be admitted to college because of the children in the family. I saved a lot of money and built a big tiled house to live a good life.

Zhang Cuilian couldn't help but step forward and pull Zhang's mother, and asked in a low voice, "Mom, have you moved the money in my house?" ”

Zhang's mother was startled, and her backhand was a slap: "Nonsense, what am I doing with the money in your house?" Only then did he react: "What? Lost money at home? ”

When Zhang Cuilian heard it, her parents didn't take it, and it was a thief. I almost cried out and nodded: "Well, the money in my house is gone!" ”

When Zhang's mother heard this, she hurriedly explained to Zhang's father, and led Zhang Cuilian to run home in a hurry. When I returned home, I saw that there had been no thieves inside and out.

"Cuilian, you go to the school first to get the notice back. I'll look for you at home, but if it doesn't work, I'll go to the police station to report the case! ”

Zhang's mother's words made the panicked Zhang Cuilian find the backbone, and hurriedly went to the house next door to borrow a bicycle and rushed to school. When I arrived at school, I didn't dare to delay for a quarter of an hour, so I took the notice and rushed home.

When she went, she was still in a hurry, and when she came back, she was not so anxious.

The more Zhang Cuilian thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, there was no sign of a thief in the house, and her mother did not shout to catch a thief. And later, Zhang's mother did not scold loudly, let alone complain that the money was not in her hands, and even offered to let her go to school to get the notice.

All signs indicate that the person who stole the money has been known by his own mother.

The more Zhang Cuilian thought about it, the more angry she became, and she rode back to her home. The classmate who happened to meet his younger brother was named Li Yuanhe, Zhang Cuijun's fox friend and dog friend when he was a teenager. On weekdays, the two are always mixed together, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, smoking, drinking, and being proficient in everything.

"Li Yuanhe?" Seeing him haunting near her home, Zhang Cuilian couldn't help but shout to him: "Why are you going?" ”

Li Yuanhe didn't think about it and said, "I just came out of your house!" ”

"What are you doing at my house? What about the small army? Zhang Cuilian got off the bicycle, and she suspected that Li Yuanhe had stolen her money from her brother.

Li Yuanhe pouted and said, "Zhang Cuijun bought a game console, but your mother won't let me play with it!" Cut! What's the big deal, isn't it just a broken game console! ”

Zhang Cuilian's head banged, and Weng Weng rang out. She understands everything, Zhang Cuijun loves games, whether it is Xiaobawang learning machine or game hall, and then to the games in the VCD player or the online game in the computer. Zhang Cuijun doesn't like to play, not to mention wasting time on it, and spending a lot of money.

Regardless of Li Yuanhe, Zhang Cuilian pushed the car and ran home. When I entered the yard, I knocked my bicycle to the ground and rushed into the house in one go.

Seeing Zhang Cuilian who suddenly ran back, Zhang Cuijun's mother and son pretended not to know anything. Zhang's mother also stepped forward enthusiastically and asked, "I'm back!" Quickly take out the notice and show it to me! ”

Zhang Cuilian also ignored her mother, walked up to Zhang Cuijun and shouted: "Don't you know that I worked hard to save in order to go to college?" Why are you such a brute and stealing my money for college? Do you want to ruin my future if you don't fight yourself? ”

was scolded by Zhang Cuilian who suddenly split his head and covered his face, Zhang Cuijun was stunned. He lost his usual ability to be in the belly of the chicken, and muttered quietly by his neck: "What are you talking about, who stole your money!" ”

Zhang's mother also stepped forward to grab Zhang Cuilian, with an unhappy face: "What are you talking about?" That's your brother, how can I steal your money! ”

Zhang Cuilian sneered: "Mom! You're doing him harm! You don't care if he does something wrong, and when you grow up and become a murderer, will you also shield him? Are you covered? ”

Zhang's mother pushed Zhang Cuilian away and scolded sharply: "What are you talking nonsense? You lost your money, why did you rely on your brother? If you don't say that you didn't put it away yourself, maybe you spent it yourself! ”

"I spent it myself? Then I ask you, he didn't steal my money, where did he get the money to buy the game console? Zhang Cuilian pointed to Zhang Cuijun's nose and questioned her mother in a loud voice.

"What a game console!" Zhang's mother muttered quietly, as if she was about to breathe fire when she saw Zhang Cuilian's eyes. found a reason for his son: "That's not a game console, it's because I can't see your brother studying." I bought him a learning machine for studying! ”

Zhang Cuilian raised her head and laughed dryly, and nodded: "You spent so much money for him to buy a useless learning machine, what about me?" What about my college tuition? Do you want to take it yourself? ”

Zhang's mother screamed: "You didn't say that you make money... She was silent halfway through, because she knew it. Zhang Cuilian's hard-earned tuition fees were taken out by her son to spend.

"Mom! Let's not say some things so clearly! I'm going to start school in a few days, and I definitely won't be able to earn this tuition. Otherwise, you can borrow me the tuition fee for this semester first. Next year, I'll go out on vacation to earn money, and that's always okay, right? Zhang Cuilian pleaded, now is not the time to have a hard time with her mother. After all, going to college is the most important thing, and only by going to college can you have a good future.

"Huh? How rich am I! The family's money is steamed buns, I... When Mama Zhang heard that she was shaking her money, she immediately exploded. Zhang Cuilian begged in a low voice: "Mom, I am your daughter." Can I borrow it from you? I'm sure I'll pay you back double, can you bear that I can't go to college because of 180 yuan? ”

Zhang's mother lowered her head and kept silent, and slowly walked to the side of the kang and lowered her head: "When your father comes back, let's discuss!" ”

Zhang Cuilian said sharply: "What is there to discuss? You can buy a game console for Xiaojun for a hundred or ten yuan, why can't you let me go to college? You don't understand how much money I can earn you when I go to college? ”

Zhang's mother was unhappy with her daughter's words, and broke the jar and said, "What's the matter? My own money, I am willing to spend it on whomever I want! You don't care! You're going to college, and you're going to earn it yourself! Aren't you very capable, you've earned a hundred dollars! Earn it again! ”

Zhang Cuilian felt deeply sad, stood on the ground and watched Zhang Cuijun without speaking. Suddenly, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Zhang Cuijun and said, "Xiaojun, you take out the game console and return it, return the money to me!" ”

Zhang Cuijun was just frightened by Zhang Cuilian just now, and at this time, he had already sobered up between Zhang's mother and sister.

His temperament is most similar to Zhang's mother, and he is the most able to mess around. He stretched out his hand and slapped Zhang Cuilian's hand away vigorously, looking a scoundrel: "Who can say that it was bought with your money?" That's what Mom gave me! Why should I give it back to you! ”

Zhang Cuilian's eyes widened and shouted, "That's the money I paid for college!" ”

Zhang Cuijun shouted in a louder voice: "Who cares if you don't go to college, what does it have to do with me!" ”

Zhang Cuilian laughed angrily, took a few steps back and nodded: "Okay!" Zhang Cuijun, that's what you said. You didn't steal the money, did you? Yes! Count your mouth hard, I saw the police. Check if you're so hard-mouthed in front of you! ”
