Chapter 235: Lao Li's Heart
"No, no, how could I do something sorry for them? It's just a bit embarrassing to talk about it, so I hope you can keep it a secret for me."
Lao Li still has some concerns.
"I said Lao Li, when did you become such a mother-in-law? Hurry up and say, what the hell is going on? ”。
"Well, that's right, my daughter will take the college entrance examination next year, and she has a few good classmates who plan to apply for a certain university abroad, and she also wants to go, her grades have been good, and I am also very supportive"
"But then I checked on the Internet, and the university they wanted to go to had more than 300,000 yuan a year in tuition, and my savings were only enough for one year."
"Are you sick, Lao Li? Then you use gambling to help her earn tuition? ”。
Huang Ming interjected.
"No, no, I never thought about gambling, didn't we go to Shangri-La together last time to look for a meteorite, and then we found it? We also split a sum of money each, so, so I ......".
"So what? Can you stop babbling and spitting, and hurry up and say big brother."
"So, that's why I want to come and find the meteorite again."
Lao Li finally said the reason why he took leave to come here.
"You're looking for a meteorite again?".
Huang Ming touched his chin, he knew that the TV news had already been broadcast.
It is said that some time ago, several meteorites fell in Menghai County, Banna, one of which fell in the field, and the other fell directly into the home of a certain villager, smashing the roof.
"Yes, I watched the news that night, saying that another meteorite fell on Banna, and I was tempted at the time, as long as I could find a piece of my daughter's tuition, I was afraid that Shen Hu and Lao Su would not want to come, so I asked for leave and came by myself."
When Lao Li said this, his eyes flickered a little.
"You're not afraid that they won't want to come, but you're afraid that they will share the money together."
Huang Ming deliberately broke it.
"This ......, hehe......".
Lao Li smiled awkwardly and continued.
"But as soon as I arrived in Menghai, I heard that the meteorite had been found, alas, ......."
"Since the meteorite has been found, then you can go back, and you can slowly think of a way to deal with the money, not to mention that your daughter will go to school next year."
Huang Ming was a little puzzled.
"I thought the same thing at the time, but then I saw a document about the casino in the small Mengla City opposite the small hotel where I lived, so I wanted to try it."
Lao Li lowered his head.
"Alas, I said Lao Li, what do you want me to say about you, it's right to care about my daughter, I can understand a little selfishness, but why do you want to gamble?"
"Don't say that you will definitely lose, even if you win, you can't take the money, they will definitely say that you are a good man, a little common sense, okay?"
Looking at the embarrassed pig-headed Lao Li, Huang Ming had mixed feelings in his heart, he really felt pity for the hearts of parents all over the world.
"I didn't know it at the time, I thought the casino was very legitimate, and I didn't know I was wrong until I actually won money and they said it was a good deal."
Lao Li said this, with a look of remorse.
"Ah, you've really won? How much did you win? ”。
Huang Ming gossiped a little.
"It's not much, I've been losing since the beginning, I've lost more than 100,000, and then I decided to make another bet at the end regardless of whether I win or lose, so I changed 10,000 chips and bet on the multiplier at a time."
Lao Li said that his eyebrows fluttered a little when he said this, it seems that gambling is really exciting.
"Don't tell me I won this bet and was detained."
Huang Ming interjected.
"How do you know? The last time I made a bet on the sieve cup, I remember I bet on seven to multiply it twelve, and it really came out and won Ben back."
"But like you said, they said that I was a good man, and I had to pay a fine of 500,000 yuan if I beat me, so I didn't have so much money, so I called you."
When Lao Li said this, he quietly lowered his head again.
"Hey, I said Lao Li, why don't you call others for this kind of thing? Are you really a friend? ”。
"Didn't I carry Shen Hu and Lao Su behind my back to find the meteorite? It's definitely not good to call them, and my other friends can't get 500,000 at once, so I thought of you."
"Your sister, it's my fault that I have money? Hey, can't you just talk to those people about the conditions, or tell the truth and say you don't have that much money."
Huang Ming continued to tease Lao Li.
"I said it, but it's okay not to say it, you look at my face, it's just that I said I don't have money to become like this."
Lao Li said as he pointed to his face that had been beaten into a pig's head.
Looking at Lao Li's pig-headed panda eyes, Huang Ming suddenly couldn't bear to tease him anymore.
"Forget it, it's okay if people are fine, since we're back, then let's go back in the afternoon."
"Okay, hey Lao Ming, there are a few things I haven't been able to figure out, how did you find me? And how did they let them go? Also, why would they give us money? ”。
Lao Li asked a bunch of questions.
"Did they give you back the money?".
This time it was Huang Ming's turn to figure it out.
"Yes, when I was released back just now, the person who sent me through the customs gave me a card, saying that there were 500,000 yuan on the card, which we deserved, and I think the 'we' he said should be you."
"Huh? This cage guy is quite good at doing things, well, yes, this money is indeed what we deserve, then you can accept it, and it will be your daughter's tuition."
"Huh? How does this work? No, no, I can't ask for it? ”。
Lao Li was taken aback and waved his hand again and again.
"What's not to ask for here? Let me tell you Lao Li, the reason why I was able to find you is because I found a big man in their Shan State through connections."
"It was the big man who came forward to settle this matter, and this money is actually the casino's filial piety to the big man, but the big man is not short of money at all, so let's not want it in vain."
Huang Ming didn't want to talk too much to Lao Li, so he made up an excuse.
"Huh? Do you know the big people in Shan State? ”。
Lao Li was stunned.
"I don't know either, I know people here, I let people here find people over there, and then let people over there find people over there, and the big people over there find people who can handle the casino."
Huang Ming deliberately twisted his words a little, so that Lao Li couldn't understand it for a while.
"Huh?".
Lao Li touched his head, and he really didn't understand.
"Then the money should be yours, I can't ask for it."
"I said Lao Li, why are you talking so much nonsense? It's not easy for you to take care of your children alone, and finally your daughter can go abroad to study when she grows up, so you should support it vigorously."
"Otherwise, if you don't dare to ask for this money, you will be treated as if I borrowed you, and you will pay me back when you have the money in the future, this will be fine, right?"
Huang Ming knew that Lao Li was a person, and he could lend it to him, but if it was given for nothing, then he would definitely not dare to ask for it.
Sure enough, when he heard Huang Ming say that he would lend it to him, Lao Li was moved.
"Then, aren't you short of money?".
"Nonsense, how is there no shortage? Who in this world is not short of money? It's just that I still don't have to support my family by myself, and the hot pot restaurant has a salary, plus I haven't used any of the money from selling meteorites last time, so I won't wait to use it for a while, okay, you don't have to be verbose, that's all."
Huang Ming really said that his saliva was pills.
"Then, that's okay, just as if I borrowed it from you, I will definitely pay it back later."
Lao Li finally accepted it.
After that, the two didn't say these unhappy things anymore, and simply packed up and took the afternoon shuttle back to Jinghong.
As the tickets for the day were sold out, they returned to Spring City the next morning.
