Chapter 13 Selling one's body to bury one's mother
Cuckoo...
There was a sound in his stomach, and Tang Yun remembered that he hadn't eaten lunch yet, and when he looked at his phone, it was already more than twelve o'clock.
I was a little annoyed in the hotel room, so I simply went downstairs to the front desk in the lobby and checked out directly, and then Tang Yun walked out of the hotel in the surprised eyes of the beautiful woman at the front desk.
I don't know if it's because of the meal, but there are not many people in sight on the street at this time.
After thinking about it, Tang Yun decided to go to the noodle shop to eat a bowl of screw noodles first, remembering that there was a screw noodle seller in front of him, he hadn't eaten it for a long time, and his mouth was a little greedy.
When he was about to arrive at the noodle shop, Tang Yun saw a pair of young boys and girls in front of an alley, the male was estimated to be about the same age as himself, and the female looked only eleven or twelve years old. At this time, the boy hung a square wooden sign on his body, and the wooden sign was written with the four big characters of 'selling himself and burying his mother'.
There were many people around who were watching and talking, but no one was willing to pay for them.
Tang Yun looked at the young boy and girl with some curiosity, both of them looked very pale, and the girl's eyes were even redder.
Listening to the discussion of the onlookers, some said that it might be a liar, and some thought that 100,000 yuan was too outrageous, in short, no one was willing to lend a hand.
Looking at the indifferent crowd around him, Tang Yun thought with a frown.
From Tang Yun's essence, he is very kind, when he was in Qingshui Town, he helped the villagers a lot, and the children in the town, Tang Yun, were also very enthusiastic to give them supplementary lessons, and Tang Yun did not charge a penny for doing these things, but felt very happy to be able to help others.
But in the past few years of college, Tang Yun has gradually realized that not everyone is kind. Unlike Qingshui, the big city is full of deception and cunning, and many people may do anything for money.
During Tang Yun's contemplation, the crowd gradually began to disperse, and Tang Yun saw that the young man and girl were still kneeling on the ground with a pale face, and only then did Tang Yun notice that the two of them had written a few lines of words with chalk on the ground.
It turned out that the two were brother and sister, and their father died when they were very young. And their mother just died of liver cancer a day ago, and the two have no money to bury their mother. In desperation, my brother could only make the move of selling himself to bury his mother, and the reason why he wanted 100,000 yuan was because he still needed some money for his sister to maintain her life after the burial.
Tang Yun decided to help the brother and sister in front of him, judging from the expressions of the two, Tang Yun was seven or eight points sure that the two were not liars. Besides, it doesn't matter if it's a real liar. It's only 100,000 yuan, which is not much for me now, and I will make more money in the future.
Especially when he saw the word liver cancer, Tang Yun remembered Grandpa Tang, who died of liver cancer in the previous life, and Tang Yun felt a little sad in his heart when he thought of this.
Glancing at the crowd around him, Tang Yun quietly left here and walked towards a nearby bank.
took out 100,000 pieces and put them in a brown paper bag, and when Tang Yun returned to the alley again, the crowd had already dispersed, and only the two brothers and sisters were still kneeling in the same posture.
Tang Yun walked up to the two of them and squatted down, handed the brown paper bag to the boy and said, "Here are 100,000 yuan, bury your mother well." ”
After speaking, Tang Yun ignored the expressions of the two and got up and left directly, the girl was stunned for a while, took the paper bag and opened it, ten bundles of red and dazzling hundred-yuan bills, exactly 100,000 yuan.
"Wait, wait..." The boy froze for a moment, and quickly got up with his sister and chased after Tang Yun. It may be that kneeling for too long has caused a lack of oxygen, and the two of them just ran two steps before they fell to the ground with a pop.
Hearing the sound, Tang Yun looked back and saw the two of them falling to the ground, and Tang Yun hurriedly helped them up.
"What's wrong, are you all right?" Tang Yun asked with a concerned expression.
"No, it's fine, it's just a lack of oxygen. The two of them took a deep breath and their faces improved.
"Well, you just gave us 100,000, and now I'm your person. The boy said to Tang Yun with a serious face.
Tang Yun laughed and said, "What are you my person? I don't need you to do anything for me, you just bury your mother and live well." ”
"No! Our company commander said that a man must be a man of his word. The boy said with a very serious face.
"Company commander, have you ever been a soldier?" Tang Yun felt a little curious, the boy in front of him looked the same age as himself, but he didn't expect to be a soldier.
"Of course, I was..."Before the boy finished speaking, Tang Yun heard a cooing, and the girl lowered her head with a flushed face, it seemed that neither of them had eaten yet.
"Well, let's go eat first, and we'll talk about the rest later. Tang Yun's original purpose was to eat, but his stomach was also empty at this time.
"Thank you..."
When the three of them came to the noodle shop, Tang Yun ordered three bowls of snail noodles and ordered a few side dishes.
Looking at the appearance of the two gobbling up, Tang Yun was a little sad, it was really different people and different lives. Some people are born with everything, and some people may be born with nothing.
Cherish! Tang Yun secretly made up his mind that he would cherish everything around him in this life. Relatives and friends love, no one is missing!
During the meal, the boy introduced the situation of the two siblings to Tang Yun.
It turned out that the elder brother's name was Wang Yu, and the younger sister's name was Wang Tingting. Wang Yu used to be an excellent soldier, and he was also selected for the special forces force, and he carried out secret missions many times, and retired because of a prisoner killed by mistake in one mission. After retiring from the army, while taking care of his sister, he began to look for a job, Wang Yu worked as a security guard, and also worked on the construction site for a while, and then spent all his savings because of his mother's illness. At this point, he no longer had a penny to bury his mother, and there was no way to come up with this method.
"In return, I can be your bodyguard for the rest of my life to protect you. Wang Yu looked at Tang Yun with a straight face and said.
"Bodyguard?" Tang Yun raised his head and said, "I don't need you to repay me for anything, you just have to live well." ”
"Don't you believe me?" Wang Yu looked at Tang Yun and said, "Don't look at me like this, three or four ordinary people together are not my opponents." Just let me follow you!"
"No, no, that's not what I meant. I..."Tang Yun waved his hand and explained, and then suddenly thought that it would be a little unsafe for him to gamble in the future if he didn't have a skilled person by his side, after all, he would have to make a lot of money in the future, and it would inevitably not be remembered.
"Well, if you want to, you can follow me, but don't mention the bodyguards or anything. Tang Yun pondered and said, "You can follow me to protect my safety, and at the same time, I will give you a salary of four thousand yuan per month, and the bonus is calculated separately, what do you think?"
"Salary? How can this be? You have already given us brother and sister 100,000 yuan, and it is my obligation to give your bodyguard, how can I ask for your money again? No, no!" Wang Yu said hurriedly.
"Don't say it, that's it! 4,000 base salary per month, plus bonuses, if you don't want to, don't follow me, I'll leave now." With that, Tang Yun immediately got up and prepared to leave.
"Don't! I'll just say yes!"
"That's right!"
Seeing that Wang Yu finally nodded, Tang Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
