Chapter 9 Miss Oto
Two or three years have passed since Hu Liangchun asked Li Yang and the others to study in a private school, and Li Bufan and Yang Ze have gradually faded away from their former immaturity, but they still maintain a life of division of labor, but there is one more activity: go to the private school to find Hu Liangchun to take classes.
With the passage of time, the relationship between Li Bufan, Yang Ze and Hu Liangchun has become more and more intimate, Li Bufan and Yang Ze will call grandpa when they see Hu Liangchun, which was not a thing before, after all, the two of them have always thought that Mr. Hu, who dares to stand up to those rich people, is not a good stubble.
And Hu Liangchun seems to like the two of them very much, and will always give them a few rich people to give him snacks to taste after class.
The two have also learned a lot from Hu Liangchun in the past two or three years, at least they know a few words and can write.
But Li Bufan learned more than Yang Ze, but Yang Ze didn't say anything, in his own words: he was not born to read.
If it weren't for Li Bufan's death and begging for nothing, he might as well use his study time to beg for more money and dig up some food.
............
"Okay, okay... Ladies and gentlemen... Okay, okay......"
On the side of the street in the town of Surabaya, a faint word was repeated, and when I looked closer, I found that it was an unkempt, ragged beggar squatting on the street, facing the light rain on the street, beating on his tattered linen shirt.
"Alright, my lords."
The shouting sounded again, and this person was Li Bufan, who had come to Surabaya for a few years.
"-Bang--"
Just as he was shouting, a few taels of silver suddenly appeared in front of him, and he hurriedly folded his hands and respectfully bowed and said, "Thank you good people, thank you good people!" ”
You must know that these taels of broken silver can only be earned by him and Yang Ze for almost half a year, even those big families with a lot of money have never seen them give so much money to beggars, this time Li Bufan can't help but be shocked, I don't know who the person who gave the money is, and he is so generous.
When he looked up, he found that it was a woman with skin like fat and a blue air, with a fluttering skirt wrapped tightly in satin, showing a delicate and transparent figure.
The blue butterfly coat covers the white skin, and the blue stripes around it show a faint blue light when you look closely.
This is the first time in his life that he has seen such a stunning woman, both in appearance and clothing, which is different from the entire Surabaya Town.
The woman just turned her head and glanced at Li Bufan meaningfully, the corners of her mouth were slightly curved, and she didn't say anything, so she held a red umbrella and slowly walked into the crowd.
Li Bufan was shocked by the woman's appearance, and did not notice the woman's eyes, and quickly came back to his senses.
I couldn't help but guess in my heart, this person should be from somewhere else, although he is not a native of Surabaya, but in the past few years, I have seen many people here, whether it is a poor person or a rich man, there is no one who has the temperament of the woman just now, and I feel envious for a while, if only he was born in that kind of big family.
But just thinking about it, even a few taels of silver in front of him now are enough to make him and Yang Ze happy for a while.
It was a clear night, the clouds receded, and the breeze hit, with a hint of coolness after the rain.
Li Bufan stood up, picked up today's harvest, dusted off the rain and dust on his body, happily rendezvous with Yang Ze, and counted the money in his hand along the way.
"Two"
"Four"
"Six"
"Eight"
"Ten"
............
"Twenty-nine! Coupled with the silver given by that person, there is so much money! I can eat for a while, I have to go back and tell Yang Ze quickly. ”
Li Bufan couldn't help but be shocked after counting, he couldn't have imagined that he could make so much money when he came out today, and he accelerated the pace of going home.
After returning home, after a while, Yang Ze also rushed back, and Yang Ze at this time also looked excited: "Bufan, do you guess how much I earned today?" ”
As he spoke, he took out thirty or forty copper coins from his pocket, put them in front of Li Bufan, and said proudly: "Thirty-eight Wen!" That's the amount you could earn in the first two days, how about it, isn't it a lot? As soon as I look at you, I know that you must not have made much money today, don't be discouraged, anyway, what's yours is mine, and mine is yours, hahaha. ”
Li Bufan listened to Yang Ze's slightly mocking tone, but he didn't get angry at all, but pretended to be envious, wanted to slap Yang Ze's face, and said in a low voice: "Hey, how can you make so much money?" I've been busy for so long, and I've only earned a few taels of silver, so I envy you. ”
"That's not true, but don't be upset, keep ......! No, wait, you mean, a few taels of silver!! ”
Yang Ze didn't feel anything wrong at first, but after reacting, he didn't seem to believe his ears.
"Yes, it's only a few taels of silver, don't believe it, you see." Li Bufan looked at Yang Ze's expression and wanted to laugh on the spot, but he still held back, and then disgusted Yang Ze.
As he spoke, he also took out some dusty silver from the bag and dangled it in front of Yang Ze, for fear that Yang Ze would not see it.
Yang Ze was surprised by Li Bufan's affirmative words and the silver he took out, and the expression on his face changed several times, rubbing his eyes vigorously, as if his eyes couldn't believe it anymore.
"This, this is really silver, where did you get it?"
Yang Ze asked in surprise with his mouth wide open.
"It fell from the sky while walking."
Li Bufan quipped.
"I'll tell you to be serious, don't be weird."
Yang Ze couldn't bear Li Bufan's joke and hurriedly spoke.
"Hahaha, you look anxious! Didn't you just say that I should not be discouraged, it seems that now you have to make persistent efforts yourself, hahaha. ”
"Forget it, no kidding, this money is also begged, it's a woman, it's quite beautiful, it should be a young lady from a big family in another place or a daughter-in-law who has just started, I can't tell what age I am, but I don't look like a person from Surabaya."
"So that's the case, the young lady of a big family doesn't know how rich the family is, and she is so generous, but no matter who she is, this money is enough for the two of us to eat for half a year." Yang Ze thought for a moment after hearing this, and quickly put it aside.
"Since we've made so much money today, how about we go out and eat something good?"
Yang Ze stared at the silver in Li Bufan's hand and asked.
"Really? Then I'm going to eat Wang's wontons next to Yuelai, I've long wanted to taste the wontons there. ”
Li Bufan replied, and a little saliva couldn't help but flow out of his mouth.
"Okay, let's go there to eat, even if it's the Chinese New Year's Eve of this year in advance."
"Chinese New Year's Eve? That's too early, it's only the fourteenth day of the month. Li Bufan interrupted.
"You think it's so good to eat every day? Maybe on Chinese New Year's Eve this year, you will have to eat wild vegetables and make soup. Yang Ze knocked on Li Bufan's head.
