Chapter Forty-Eight: Lost Money
After Su Yao's incident, Tang Ruoyao almost closed herself off, and worked hard every day except for school.
She is gratified that the child she tutored is very smart, in a monthly examination at school, the child's grades have improved a lot compared to before, the child's family is very happy, the child's family decided to give her full authority in the future child's learning problems, and the tutoring fee for her has also increased from 30 yuan an hour to 50 yuan.
The takeaway where she is located, because of her good attitude towards customers, her performance is better than everyone else, and the boss is happy and gives her a bonus increase.
Tang Ruoyao was very happy about these, seeing that she was able to take a step closer to the day of repayment, and the energy in her heart was even greater.
The peaceful days pass very quickly, and in this quiet day, the arrival of the National Day Mid-Autumn Festival is getting closer and closer.
With the arrival of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a traditional Chinese family reunion holiday, her longing for her parents has become more and more intense.
On this day, after making takeout, she did not rush home, but strolled through the streets of M City.
The streets are full of preparations for festivals, and you can see Mid-Autumn mooncakes selling everywhere.
Tang Ruoyao's heart was once again reminded of the sadness of missing her family.
Counting, she has been away from home for more than a month, and she has not contacted her family, and I don't know if her parents are doing well. And her little brother, has he grown taller again? Can't keep up with your studies?
"Girl, buy some mooncakes, they're delicious and not expensive!" A lady selling mooncakes greeted her, and she stopped and looked at the lady's mooncake stall.
"Girl, come and taste it, it's delicious and buy it again!" The eldest lady enthusiastically broke a small piece for her and handed it to her.
Tang Ruoyao showed a faint smile to the enthusiastic lady and took her moon cakes.
Take a bite, it's crispy and sweet, and it tastes really good!
"Weigh me five pounds!" Tang Ruoyao said.
She has never bought anything for her family, and now she can earn a little money on her own, and she should bring something to her parents.
The lady who sold moon cakes enthusiastically weighed five catties of moon cakes for her, and gave her two more pieces.
However, when Tang Ruoyao wanted to pay the bill, she was shocked to find that her wallet was gone!
Suddenly, her heart was cold, and what she had in her wallet was half of all the money she had earned this month, which she was going to give to her parents so that they could pay her younger brother's tuition.
"Yo! Didn't you bring any money? So what mooncakes to buy? Seeing that Tang Ruoyao couldn't come up with the money for a long time, the lady who sold moon cakes couldn't help but say mockingly, that tone was completely different from the previous one!
Tang Ruoyao was cold in her heart, and when she heard such words, she suddenly felt extremely embarrassed: "No, I lost my wallet." Auntie, I'll buy mooncakes another day! ”
"Hmph, it's not an excuse you're looking for, is it? I don't think you have any money! The moon cake seller said disdainfully.
"I'll pay her for the mooncakes!" A gentle male voice sounded as good as the first sun, and then two hundred-yuan bills were handed to the moon cake seller, "Is it enough?" ”
"Enough, enough!" Seeing someone paying, the mooncake seller's face was stacked with a smile again.
"Haoxuan, don't! I can't spend your money, I can not buy mooncakes first. Seeing that someone came to pay for her, Tang Ruoyao hurriedly stopped her.
However, the lady who sold moon cakes was not happy: "You girl, are you fooling me?" ”
"Auntie, don't blame her, I'll buy the mooncakes!" He Haoxuan was slightly dissatisfied with the difficulty of selling moon cakes.
Tang Ruoyao saw that there was no way to stop it, so she had to accept it temporarily.
Leaving the moon cake stall, Tang Ruoyao said to He Haoxuan apologetically and anxiously: "I lost my wallet, I want to find it." ”
As he spoke, he was about to leave in a hurry, He Haoxuan grabbed her arm and asked with concern, "What's the matter?" Tell me, I'll look for it with you! ”
"I don't know, I just finished delivering takeout, I'll look to see if I fell on the road." Tang Ruoyao said.
"Has anyone ever passed by you?" Hearing Tang Ruoyao's words, He Haoxuan asked suspiciously.
"No, except when I just bought mooncakes, it seemed that someone around me stopped for a moment, and I didn't care. I'll look again the way I came back. She felt that she might have accidentally fallen on the road, but even if she fell on the road, how could she not feel the slightest feeling?
"I'll look for it with you!" He Haoxuan said, "What do you have in your wallet?" Does it matter? ”
"Except for more than a thousand dollars, there is nothing else. But the more than 1,000 I earned from half a month's work, and I'm going to take advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to go back and take it to pay my brother's tuition, what can I do now? Tang Ruoyao looked around along the road she came back to, and said to He Haoxuan who was following her.
Hearing Tang Ruoyao's words, He Haoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there were no documents or anything, just money......
"Xiao Yao, if you really can't find the money, I can help you ......," He Haoxuan said.
Before he finished speaking, Tang Ruoyao interrupted him: "Haoxuan, you have already helped me a lot, I can't use your money anymore." ”
He Haoxuan smiled gently, he knew that she would not agree to give her money directly, but if it was another way......
"Xiao Yao, you misunderstood! I don't seem to want to give you money, a friend of mine who has dropped out of school a long time ago opened an auction house by himself, tomorrow he is going to hold an auction, there may be foreigners at that time, he just hasn't found a translator yet, I can recommend you to go, you study so well, I think English should not be bad, it should be enough to do this translation. He Haoxuan explained.
In fact, his friend has a fixed translator, but it just so happens that this translator is sick these days, he can recommend Tang Ruoyao to his friend, and ask his friend to give her a little more salary when the time comes. Of course, the extra money, he out.
"Really?" As soon as she heard He Haoxuan's words, Tang Ruoyao was immediately overjoyed, if there was such a good opportunity, of course she wanted to go, but ......, Tang Ruoyao's eyes dimmed, and she sighed and said: "I'm just a student, I haven't participated in any big occasions, I'm afraid that I won't do well and embarrass your friends." ”
"Xiao Yao, it's not right for you to say that! In my eyes, you've always been a strong, competitive girl, just a mere auction, what's so scary? I believe in you, you can do it! He Haoxuan stopped, straightened Tang Ruoyao's body, let her look into his eyes, and said seriously.
Encouraged by him, Tang Ruoyao's gloomy mood due to the loss of money finally got better, urging him to show a sweet smile: "Thank you Haoxuan!" I'll definitely try not to embarrass you! ”
"This is the Tang Ruoyao I know!" He Haoxuan scratched her nose affectionately and said with a gentle smile.
