Thinking that after a while, she would be able to pour bitter water on her friends, and Reiko's pathetic mood was slightly comforted.

After talking to Yanyan on the phone, Reiko looked down at the 10,000 yuan that fell on the ground again.

The 10,000 yuan on the ground are all 100 yuan bills of great men! If it is placed in normal times, as soon as she sees the hundred-dollar bill, Reiko will have a strong feeling of concern in her heart.

And if it is a hundred-dollar bill owned by Reiko, Reiko will have a great sense of satisfaction and excitement.

However, today, when Mengdu's mother gave this 10,000 yuan in cash to Reiko, Reiko actually waved them to the ground without hesitation!

Could it be that in order to be angry with Mengdu, in order to ask Mengdu for an explanation, I really don't want the 10,000 yuan given by my aunt?

Reiko looked at the 10,000 yuan banknotes on the ground for a long time, hesitated for a long time, and couldn't resist the temptation of money, so she bent down and picked it up from the ground.

After Reiko picked up the banknotes, she slowly walked to the wall, took out the Xiaokun bag that she carried with her when she went out from the cardboard box in the corner, and stuffed 10,000 yuan into it.

After the money was put away, Reiko specially checked the bank card to see if it was in the bag.

After confirming that the bank card was also ready, Reiko picked up the small round mirror on the bedside table, tidied up her haggard appearance in front of the mirror a little, and then walked out groggily with tired steps.

Reiko first came to the branch of the Construction Bank not far from Wang's house, and looked at the situation of the glass room of the ATM, and there happened to be no one in the glass room, so she walked into the room, and after returning to the latch to the door, she deposited all the second hush money given by the hostess.

After the money was saved, Reiko walked out of the ATM room, turned around to a small fruit store next to it, bought two catties of bananas and two catties of oranges, and put them in two plastic bags. Then, carrying a plastic bag in one hand, he hurried to the south gate of West Lake Park.

"Oops, Reiko, why did you arrive later than me!"

Before Reiko arrived at the south gate of the park, Yan Yan ran over from the dimly lit south gate.

"I'm going to buy some fruit. I invited you here, but I can't let you sit with me. ”

Reiko replied with a numb expression as she handed the plastic bag she was carrying in her left hand to Yanyan.

"Hey, I'm not an outsider, every time we meet, you either buy melon seeds or fruits, don't you have nowhere to spend the money?"

After Yan Yan took the fruit handed by Reiko, she said quickly.

At the same time, Yan Yan stared at Reiko with two eyes, as if she wanted to see how sad Reiko was.

"Ouch, my little beauty, I haven't seen you for a few days, you are really haggard! It's no wonder that when talking on the phone, even the voice changes. Tell me, what the hell is going on? Turned my best friend into an ugly duckling? ”

After Yan Yan looked at Reiko carefully for a while, she found that she was in a state of low spirits, her face was a little blue, and her eyes were also red circles. I made a joke with heartache. Of course, while joking, I also wanted to create some relaxed atmosphere. lest when the two of them talk, the atmosphere is too dull.

"Okay, people are uncomfortable to death, and you still have the heart to joke. Yanyan, let's sit by the pond over there, are you optimistic? ”

Reiko glanced at Yanyan blankly, not wanting to say anything to her at the gate of the park, so after entering the gate of the park, she pointed to the green meadow by a lotus pond not far from the south gate, and looked at Yanyan inquiringly.

"Okay, let's go sit there."

Yan Yan nodded, took the lead in taking a step, and walked towards the lotus pond.

When they arrived at the lotus pond, the two girls found a green grass meadow and sat down face to face.

After the two sat down, Reiko first took out two oranges from the plastic bag, handed one to Yanyan, and began to peel the other in her hand.

"Oh, Reiko, you asked me out in a hurry, you didn't just want to invite me to eat oranges, right?"

Yan Yan saw Lingzi sitting opposite and only peeling oranges, and she didn't speak for a long time, so she was anxious, so she threw the oranges in her hand into the plastic bag she was carrying.

"Yanyan, I, I want to tell you that Mengdu and National Day are getting married!"

At Yanyan's urging, Reiko hung her head in frustration, as if muttering to herself, and as if confiding in someone, and finally said the inner pain that she was extremely reluctant to tell.

"What? You say, dream of him - get married on National Day? Last time you told me, didn't you say that he doesn't want to get married now? Didn't you say that he was going to have a good time for a few years while he was young? How can you say that change has changed? Tell me quickly, who is he going to marry in Mengdu? Is it with you?! ”

Listening to Reiko's words, Yanyan screamed in surprise.

"With me? How could he follow me? If he marries me, I'll never wake up laughing! You're really—"

Reiko wanted to say, "You're such a pig's head!" ”

But this time, Reiko was really in no mood to scold, she just shook her head painfully and said:

"Tonight, Mengdu's mother told me that Mengdu is going to marry a staff member of the city government, a girl surnamed Zhang."

"A staff member of the city government? What kind of person is that? Would you make that playboy who didn't want to get married a few days ago change his mind? ”

Yanyan stared at Reiko in disbelief.

"I've seen the girl. One night, in the middle of the night, Mengdu took her home, and she spent the night in Mengdu's room. ”

Reiko replied faintly.

"Oh, it turns out that girl, like you, also slept with Mengdu before marriage, first cut and then played?"

Yan Yan asked with wide eyes.

"What's the same as me? If I could be like that girl, then I would burn incense! ”

Reiko said sadly:

"That night, the girl I saw was so beautiful that ordinary women can't compare with her. Moreover, she works in the city government. I heard Mengdu's mother say that the girl's father also works in which department of the city government. Yanyan, Yanyan, you say, in the first place, why did you instigate me to chase the mayor's son? I am a rural girl and a peasant family, how can I have the conditions and qualifications to chase the mayor's son? Didn't you trick me into jumping into the fire pit? Now, now you call me, what should I do?! ”

"Oh——, so you and Dream are completely out of play?"

After listening to Reiko's narration, Yanyan lowered her head with regret and self-reproach, and her small mouth, which has always been fast-talking, will also be dumb.

Reiko stuffed a freshly peeled orange clove into her mouth and chewed it slowly with the same taste as wax.

"And what are you going to do now?"

Yan Yan pondered for a while, then raised her head to stare at Reiko.

"I, I want to, resign immediately; But my dad called from Shanghai the day before yesterday and said that if my sister's illness was to be cured, it would be a lot of money, maybe at least 70,000 or 80,000 yuan! Now, I really don't know what to do. ”

When she said this, Reiko didn't look at Yanyan opposite, but looked at the pond under the meadow with a blank look.

In the quiet pond, the slightly rippling water surface is rippling in circles under the illumination of the lights.

"Resign? That's definitely not going to work! If you resign immediately, won't all the efforts and sacrifices you have made in front of you be in vain? What's more, as you said just now, your sister needs a lot of money for treatment in Shanghai! When the time comes, where will you go to raise money? No, now, you can't resign! Moreover, we must not be cheap that Wang Mengdu! At the very least, we can't just empty the basket, right? Say everything and get it back, right? ”

Listening to Reiko's thoughts, Yanyan immediately expressed her opinion.

"Then, if I don't resign, what else can I do?"

Reiko withdrew her gaze from the water and looked at Yanyan with a wilted face.

"At the very least, if we lose one, we should make it up from the other!"

Yan Yan said categorically.

"Coming back from the other side? Which one to make? ”

Reiko looked at Yanyan in confusion.

"Which one? Didn't you just say? It's money! At the very least, we have to make up for the losses financially from the banknotes, right? ”

Yanyan replied very clearly.

"But—"

Reiko wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything.

Originally, she wanted to tell Yan Yan that maybe it was to make up for Mengdu's virtue, or to make up for Mengdu's evil deeds, Mengdu's mother had already given herself 20,000 yuan.

However, when the words came to her lips, Reiko felt that it was not good or honorable to say this kind of thing, so she stopped halfway through it.

"But what? Let me tell you, since Dream is emotionally inferior to you, you can't let him take advantage of him financially! In terms of marriage and finance, we must always grasp one end! Reiko, let me tell you, now, it's no fun to marry Yumedu anyway, you listen to me, let's ask him for money now! If you don't give it, we'll knock him to the death! Are you afraid of wearing shoes when you hit barefoot? Anyway, people like them lack everything, but they don't lack money! Hey, I said Reiko, did you hear that? Don't keep your head down! You, you're going to kill me! ”

Yan Yan said, stretched out her hand and pushed hard at the wilting Lingzi.

"However, Mengdu's mother said that she would give me 20,000 yuan."

Reiko is an honest person after all.

Lingzi feels that since she came to this provincial capital, Yanyan has always gotten along with her heart and lungs, not only when she encounters problems, she is always on call to give herself ideas and find solutions; And when she was not rich in hand, she also lent 2,000 yuan to her sister to see a doctor.

Reiko felt that she couldn't hide it from her friends who were so close to her, so she said that the fact that Mengdu's mother had already given her 20,000 yuan was "will give me 20,000 yuan".

At the same time, she also wanted to hear Yanyan's opinion, and wanted to hear what Yanyan thought about this "will give 20,000 yuan".

"Twenty thousand dollars? How can 20,000 yuan do? No, 20,000 yuan is absolutely not possible! 20,000 dollars is too little! ”

Unexpectedly, Yanyan listened to Reiko's words and immediately shouted:

"Reiko, listen to me, although we are from the countryside and are peasant girls. But we are also citizens of the People's Republic of China! In terms of price, we are completely equal to the people in the city! Why is it that our chastity and virginity, and our affection, our love, are so worthless? Could it be that this is also like dealing with a traffic accident, if a car crushes a countryman, the standard of compensation can be 100,000 or 200,000 lower than that of a city person? No, I'll tell you, whether it's Mengdu, or Mengdu's mother, all in all, the compensation given to you by their Wang family must not be less than 100,000 yuan! If it is less than 100,000 yuan, we will never agree! ”
