Chapter 15 Borrowing Money

At first, Qin Yue didn't even know about her father's illness, and even the other three people in the family could be said to have concealed her father's illness for more than half a year! Suddenly, she felt that she and her sister, her mother, and her father, including her dead father, had a sense of distance that she couldn't see, but she was connected to each other by the infinite pull of something. Many years later, Qin Yue understood that this kind of thing was actually the most precious bloodline.

She didn't know how much her mother and sister were hiding from her. However, these were exactly what she wanted to know. Human beings are naturally curious about secrets. Especially when this major secret is closely related to the real life and fate of yourself or the person closest to you anytime and anywhere, you will not hesitate to give full play to the detective's ability to peel back the cocoon until the mystery is completely revealed.

Opening the small book like a hot potato again, Qin Yue looked at it carefully. Sure it's up to 6 digits, yes. To be exact, it is 109,716 yuan, and the difference is less than 300 yuan, which is a full 110,000 yuan. Almost half of the book is full. After reading the specific location and name of each debt, Qin Yue had to be surprised that her mother, who didn't pay attention to anything, was such a careful person. What she didn't know was the secret of this huge debt, and even her sister Qin Yang didn't know about it! For the whole day, Qin Yue spent the whole day alone in apprehension.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Yue cooked a meal and waited for her mother to come back. waited left and right, but found that there was still no trace of his mother coming back.

It wouldn't be that she wouldn't be back until eight o'clock in the evening! As she expected, her mother didn't come home until eight o'clock. At this moment, it was already completely dark. My mother's body was still covered in dust and dirt.

Qin Yue gave her mother a hot meal, and asked thoughtlessly, "Mom, where do you work?" ”

"Construction site." Mother Jiang Cuilian was silent after answering these two words concisely, maybe she was too tired! Qin Yue thought to herself.

Qin Yue had been hesitating in her heart about how to ask her mother about that huge debt. Until she helped her mother heat a good meal, she still couldn't sort out a single thought in her head. She was even more afraid that if she mentioned it, she would incur her mother's outburst, and any other emotions that she had not expected to erupt from her mother like a flood of beasts. The terrible appearance of her mother when she was angry has been taught more than once since she was a child!

However, the moment she helped her mother bring the meal to the table, she decided to let her mother eat well first. Watching her mother translate a large bowl of green vegetable noodles into her stomach, Qin Yue suddenly felt very distressed. So, she said tremblingly, "Mom, the work on the construction site must be very hard, you have to pay more attention to your body." When Qin Yue said this, she found that her voice was already choked.

Mother slowly rested her chopsticks on the ceramic bowl. turned around and calmly said to her, "Xiaoyue, don't worry, no matter how hard it is, you must continue to go to school hard." "Knowing a daughter is like a mother, and as a biological mother, she knows her daughter's personality so well.

"It's not like that, Mom...

Qin Yue wanted to ask her mother about the huge debt of nearly 110,000 yuan. But I found that I couldn't ask anyway.

"What's wrong with you, Satsuki!" Jiang Cuilian, a mother who does the same thing vigorously and resolutely, naturally doesn't like that she will have a daughter who grinds and chirps. So, she asked a little anxiously.

"In the drawer, that little ...... Small...... Small book! Qin Yue's voice stammered and trembled!

Maybe her mother Jiang Cuilian had already prepared the plans and rhetoric when the paper money would eventually be unable to contain the fire, she was far calmer than Qin Yue imagined.

She was silent for only a few seconds, and then said, "Xiaoyue, you are still young, and your mother is an adult, so don't worry about what adults should worry about at your age." Although our family does owe a lot of money, you have to believe Mom, in a few years, Mom will still be able to pay it off. You just need to prepare well for your high school and strive to get into a good university in the future! ”…… Aichi Literature ... Better, newer and faster

Although outside the words, Jiang Cuilian's words make people sound indeed full of confidence. However, only she knows best in her heart that the few years she is talking about may be eight years, ten years, or even longer for their poor little family. However, in the face of her daughter, who is about to enter high school life, she has to boast about such a big Haikou. In fact, she still has no bottom in her heart about the debt of nearly 110,000 yuan! It's just that she understands that as a mother, she can't show the slightest vulnerability in front of her daughter.

After listening to her mother's words, Qin Yue quickly swallowed back the words that had come to her mouth. The words that came out immediately became "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely work hard!" ”

Jiang Cuilian is very satisfied with her little daughter's answer!

However, Qin Yue almost didn't sleep all night that night! At dawn, she finally took a nap when she was sleepy. That night, she could be regarded as making a major decision in her life, she was going to go to Guancheng to find her sister, work with her sister to make money, and help her mother pay off the family's debts.

So, after waking up at eight o'clock in the morning, she made sure that her mother Jiang Cuilian had gone out, so she slipped to the village chief's house and handed an envelope made of notebook paper to the village chief's wife, who was making breakfast at home, "Grandma, please remember this letter to my mother." ”

"Isn't your mother like me, illiterate? Let her read the letter is a piece of paper! ”

Qin Yue, who had already run away, did not hear the muttering of the village chief's wife.

Actually, about this letter, Qin Yue thought very simply, once her mother got the letter, she would ask the literate village chief to read it to her, wouldn't she know the content of the letter?

After sending this letter, Qin Yue seemed to have completed a major event in her life, and she suddenly felt a sense of comfort in her heart that a stone was about to land. She walked for more than an hour to the town where she went to school, and knocked on the doors of her junior high school classmates one by one with a copy of her junior high school graduation classmates. She has only one purpose, and that is to borrow money. Because, if she wants to go to her sister's place, she has to pay for the journey, and I heard that it costs hundreds of yuan.

However, some classmates are not at home at all, as her

When she saw the blankness on the faces of some adults, she didn't say anything and turned away.

After running for most of the day, it was already afternoon, but she only borrowed 300 yuan. She rushed to the ticket hall and asked the conductor where she could buy a train ticket to Guancheng.

The station conductor was stunned by her question, but he still roughly understood what she wanted to express and told her to go to the county seat.

This town is not far from the county seat, and Qin Yue and her classmates have been there on their last classmate's birthday! So, she called a tricycle, negotiated 6 yuan with the master, and pulled her to the edge of the county seat.

After half an hour of galloping, the tricycle finally reached the edge of the county seat. At this time, Qin Yue understood that the so-called edge of the county seat was still far away from the center of the county!

Qin Yue didn't know where she should go, and when those uncles and aunts heard her ask where the station was going, they all shook their heads at her. After wandering on the side of the road for nearly an hour, Qin Yue finally met an enthusiastic old aunt. The old aunt told her that she only needed to spend a dollar to take the bus directly to the station, and the journey would take about 40 minutes!

The enthusiastic old aunt also led Qin Yue to the bus stop before leaving. After the old aunt left, a bus slowly stopped on the platform, Qin Yue didn't even look at the bus number, and rushed to the bus at once, and asked the master directly if this was a car to the station? After receiving an affirmative answer from the master, Qin Yue threw a piece of paper money into the coin box according to the prompt broadcast in the carriage.

There were a lot of people on the bus, and Qin Yue heard the master shouting in dialect, "It's time to finish work now, everyone get up and squeeze in more!" "It means that it's rush hour after work, and everyone is rushing inside!

Qin Yue finally grabbed the armrest of a chair, but immediately squeezed a tall man over. Then, it was the time for the bus to arrive, and the flow of people crowded in again. Qin Yue's two feet were eager to be squeezed into the air. But she still kept her schoolbag on her chest. Because the old aunt who had just sent her to the platform had told her that she must be aware that there were many thieves on the train.

Gradually, after about half an hour, the number of people in the car decreased by more than half. It's finally time to take a breather. Qin Yue thought to herself, so she found a nearby place to sit down.

But just as she sat down, the voice of "ahead is the bus station, the terminal of this car", came from the radio. Qin Yue's heart was still a little lost, she had been running around for most of the day, and she finally found a place to sit comfortably, but the news that she had arrived at the station.

At the last stop, Qin Yue was the last to get off the train in extreme reluctance! The master shouted at her at the top of his voice, "The girl on the other side, the terminal has arrived, get off the bus quickly." ”

As soon as she got off the bus, Qin Yue remembered that she was going to buy a train ticket to Guancheng. In fact, Qin Yue, who was at that juncture, didn't know what the fundamental difference between a train ticket and a bus ticket was.

When she told the conductor to give herself a train ticket to Dongguan, the conductor almost thought

She was talking in her sleep, and she was angry and told her that there were no train tickets here.

Qin Yue shouted at her at the top of her voice: "You don't sell tickets at the station, so how can you take the train?" The conductor finally understood what Qin Yue meant. The tense face just now finally eased down a little, and he said to her with restraint: "Little girl, we have a bus station here, we only sell bus tickets, if you want to take the train, you have to buy a ticket from here first, take the car to the nearest city before you can take the train." ”

After her explanation, Qin Yue finally understood what was going on! "Then give me a ticket to Linshi!"

"Today's tickets to Linshi have been sold out, and the earliest one is only tomorrow morning!" The conductor said to Qin Yue with regret.

"Then let's be the first one tomorrow morning!" Qin Yue just wanted to fly to her sister as soon as possible, and earn money with her sister to help her mother pay off her huge debts.

After buying the bus ticket to Linshi, Qin Yue still had the last 46 yuan left. At this time, the sun on the other side of the mountain in the county began to approach the mountain, showing a trend of slowly setting. The sun that was about to set was like a discus that had been burned red by fire, and it was burned on Qin Yue's heart little by little.

Suddenly, a heart-rending pain in her stomach made Qin Yue remember that she hadn't eaten a drop of water all day! So, she endured the pain and walked into a small restaurant and ordered herself a fried rice with cowpea minced meat for 6 yuan!

After eating and drinking, the sun has completely sunk into the other side of the mountain, and the night is coming! Qin Yue found the nearest Internet café at the station and walked in without hesitation.

As soon as she walked in, when the network manager asked her to turn on her ID card, she was dumbfounded! After all, she is only 14 years old, and she is a minor. The sign at the door clearly reads "Minors are not allowed to enter"!
