Chapter 057: Our family owes him
When it got dark, the nanny shouted to eat, and Tao Nuanci, who was still lying on the bed, lost her temper rarely and said loudly that she wouldn't eat.
Mother came and brought dinner.
Finding her red eyes, she asked with concern what was wrong, and tried to see if she had quarreled with Wanwan recently, but Nizi hadn't been here for several days.
Quarrel?
No.
That Nizi was just embarrassed, and during this time, she was even embarrassed to see herself, and at most she called.
Then, I wanted to talk to my mother about something, but I thought of my father.
Thinking that she was just going downstairs faster in the afternoon, she yelled at herself, and there was a warning about breaking her leg if she dared to fall in love.
In short, I told my mother, and my mother would definitely tell my father. Father...... It's hard to say if you'll be grateful to him, and maybe you'll have to run to embarrass him.
So I didn't dare to say it.
Following her mother's wishes, she pushed the matter onto Wanwan, and she was still sad, and she barely ate something before she could send her mother away.
Then he lay back on the bed and buried his head in the pillow again.
I didn't sleep all night.
At dawn, she finally cheered up some spirits, remembering that whether he hated herself or not, she always had to make amends.
That's right.
Ten thousand dollars.
As long as there is 10,000 yuan, it should be salvageable.
So I got up and picked up a chubby ceramic piggy bank from the bookshelf on the other side of the room, which was a big pale pink pig, I got it when I was 8 years old, and began to keep saving pocket money in it, until now.
is already very emotional, and quietly gave it a name, called Chubby.
I'm sorry, pal.
hugged to the bed, and finally reluctantly said goodbye, found a sheet to wrap it, carefully broke it, turned over the sheet, and began to sort out the large and small banknotes in it with great anticipation.
There must be 10,000.
However, it didn't.
All sorted out, a total of only 7383 yuan, 6 cents and 9 points.
It's still ......
Well.
Better.
What to do?
My brain began to turn, and I thought of the eldest sister, who had her handle and kissed the foreign woman. However, with her sister's temperament, even if she is willing to give her money, she will inevitably get to the bottom of it.
What's more, the eldest sister is not at home these days, and she went to the Northeast with a few of her classmates, saying that she was engaged in some kind of industry investigation.
Younger sister......
My sister has the softest personality at home, but she is a little Grande, and she never goes in or out, even if she is held down and beaten, she can't get any money.
That's right.
Wanwan.
Jump out of bed, pick up the phone, dial ......
It took a while for the other side to connect, and in a daze, I heard her voice, paused for a moment, and then began to scream: "Ah......hh
Tao Nuan was speechless.
It's been so many days, not to mention, I'm not him.
I could only wait for the other side to finish calling before I said, "Wanwan, you borrow me...... Well, 3000 bucks. ”
"What's the matter," there was some surprise on the other side, "have you been kidnapped?" ”
"Don't ask so much, we have been good sisters since childhood, can you borrow it?"
"Your Royal Highness Princess, my family is not as good as yours, how can there be 3,000 yuan at every turn?"
"Then you can figure it out."
"Why don't you think for yourself?"
"I can't find you," Tao Nuanci said: "Hurry up, only one morning, I can't get 3,000 yuan, and I ...... later." ...... later"
Cao Wanwan on the other side of the phone interrupted helplessly: "Okay, okay, okay, I won't threaten anyone, I'm actually a little here, ask my brother again." ”
Tao Nuanci was overjoyed in her heart, and urged: "Hurry up, I'll go to you." ”
"It's only six o'clock."
"I can't sleep."
"But I want to sleep ......"
Tao Nuanci had already hung up the phone, put away the pile of change that had just been sorted out, put it in his backpack and was about to go out, only to remember that he must be in a bad state now, and his clothes were crumpled.
Seen by him......
So I hurriedly brushed my teeth, washed my face and changed my clothes.
When I looked in the mirror, I found that my eyes were a little red and swollen, so ugly, I found a cream and applied it, but I couldn't cover it, but ...... Fortunately, there are no dark circles under the eyes, and it is better to be red than black.
I knew that I would learn a little makeup with my sister.
Backpack down the stairs.
I said hello to my mother, who was preparing breakfast, and said that I was going to Wanwan's house, and regardless of whether she agreed or not, she had already called Sister Qin and hurriedly went out.
Cao Wanwan's house is also in the west of the city, not the western suburbs where the Tao family's mansion is located, a little northerly, not far from the city government, a large area of green trees, neat and quiet single courtyard.
Many families in the upper echelons of Hawon live here.
Santana 2000 just stopped outside a courtyard, Cao Wanwan, who was wearing cartoon bear-style thick plush pajamas, greeted her, and without waiting for Tao Nuanci's feet to land, she had already said: "Auntie called and asked if you have arrived, wow, Nuan Porcelain, why are your eyes so red?" ”
"I'm fine," Tao Nuanci subconsciously shook his head, and was nervous: "Did you tell my mother?" ”
As she spoke, she glanced at the driver in front of her, Sister Qin.
"We have been good sisters for so many years, you still don't believe me," Cao Wanwan pulled Tao Nuanci out of the car, and did not forget to invite Sister Qin to enter the door together, while saying: "However, you have to give me an explanation, otherwise I can't guarantee that I can control my mouth?" ”
The two sisters entered the courtyard.
Although not as generous as the Tao family, the Cao family's house also covers an area of one acre, similar to the single-family villa pattern that has gradually emerged in recent years, and the main house is also a three-story Western-style building.
Cao Wanwan's father, Cao Xingmao, was pacing in the courtyard while calling people with his big brother, and when he saw Tao Nuanci appearing, he immediately paused, covered the microphone, and greeted with a kind smile: "Nuan Ci is here, I didn't ...... to eat Well, definitely not, just happened to have breakfast together for a while. ”
Tao Nuanci agreed, not forgetting to greet politely: "Good morning, Uncle Cao." ”
"Okay, good, Wanwan, it's cold outside, quickly take your Nuan Porcelain sister into the house, and ah, Nuan Porcelain, tell your aunt what you want to eat, let her add."
Cao Xingmao has always been very satisfied with his daughter's ability to make Tao Nuanci's best friend, and the Cao family has relied on this to establish a relationship with Tao Bingli's circle, and their business has benefited a lot in recent years.
Therefore, every time I see this girl, the attitude can be imagined.
Cao Wanwan was also careless in front of Tao Nuanci many times, but she couldn't stand her father's attitude at this time, so she rolled her eyes, and pulled her good sister towards the door of the house.
Cao Xingmao's wife, Liu Lin, was already at the door, and she also greeted her attentively, and then went to the kitchen to let the nanny add food.
Cao Wanwan and Tao Nuanci were talking, came to their room on the second floor, and when they entered the door, Xiao Nizi suddenly remembered something, and once again she screamed and threw herself on the desk, hurriedly put away a few magazines spread on the table, and stuffed them into the drawer.
Tao Nuanci followed behind, not wanting to mess with her again, but she still couldn't hold back: "I've seen it all." ”
"I ...... Criticism, yes, it's criticism......" Cao Wanwan turned around, as if she was worried about what Tao Nuanci would do, she blocked her little body in front of the drawer, and said venomously: "...... The hen lays eggs, and the style is so different, I don't think this kind of thing is possible, and there must be something that he didn't write. ”
Tao Nuanci originally didn't like a certain statement very much, but she was optimistic about her sister's slightly red eyes and dodgy appearance, and suddenly had some instincts that didn't want to argue with her, nodded indiscriminately, and talked about the things she cared about: "What about the money, 3,000 yuan?" ”
Seeing that Tao Nuanci did not pursue the details just now, Cao Wanwan relaxed, and remembered her doubts: "Nuan Porcelain, what do you want money for, and pay 3,000 yuan, is this not a small amount of money?" ”
This time it was Tao Nuan's turn to dodge his eyes: "I...... Don't ask, it's business anyway. ”
Cao Wanwan looked at her good sister for a moment, and suddenly remembered something: "You want to lend him money?" ”
Cao Wanwan didn't mention her name, but Tao Nuanci understood at once, and instantly couldn't hide her surprise when she was said: "How do you know?" ”
"Remember once...... What you told me," Cao Wanwan's expression moved, and she quickly recovered, and said confidently: "You said that his father is an employee of a fertilizer factory, and I ...... And I happen to know that the fertilizer factory contracted by your family recently asked employees to pay 10,000 yuan in the 'maintenance fund', well, you must already have 7,000 yuan, right? ”
Tao Nuanci really didn't remember that he had told Cao Wanwan about it, because of the panic of being poked, he didn't notice the strange expression of the good sister just now, and only felt that he might really mention it occasionally, so he could only say at the moment: "Wanwan, you have to promise me that you must not tell my parents about this matter, not even your parents." ”
Cao Wanwan didn't respond, and spoke venomously again: "Isn't that guy so powerful, a great writer, he still wants to borrow money from you, it's really useless." ”
Tao Nuanci hurriedly waved his hand: "It's not what you think, he didn't open his mouth to me, I took the initiative to lend it to him, and...... Moreover, this matter is not as simple as you think, it is...... I owe it to him. ”
"Owe him?"
Tao Nuanci really couldn't hold back, and confided in Xiaoxiao: "Our family owes him." ”
Cao Wanwan was even more confused, and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Tao Nuanci hesitated again and said: "Dinner at my house that day, you should have heard some, before contracting the fertilizer factory, I told my family once, about the risks of the fertilizer plant, that reminder made our family avoid a lot of losses, and the person who reminded me was him." ”
Cao Wanwan vaguely remembered, but felt incredulous: "He is as old as us, how can he be like you said?" ”
"He's as old as us, but he's not ordinary," Tao Nuanci thought about the specialness of a certain boy, and blurted out: "He can score 1022 points, can you, he can publish so many articles in a month, can you?" There is also the matter of the fertilizer factory, his father happens to be an employee of the fertilizer factory, he is so smart, seeing the problem, and reminding me to tell the family, it is normal. ”
Cao Wanwan couldn't refute it, and after listening to Tao Nuanci's words, she found a problem again: "But, if that's the case, you can talk to Uncle Tao, it's no problem, Uncle Tao is a very good person, and if people give him so much help, he will definitely repay it, at least he can get rid of the 10,000 yuan, right?" ”
Tao Nuan's face suddenly turned red again: "I...... I can't talk to my dad. ”
Seeing her good sister's reaction like this, Cao Wanwan immediately understood that she actually knew some things about the Tao family, her expression hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, Nuan Porcelain, I'll help you." ”
"Don't tell anyone."
"Well, I promise."
Saying this, Xiao Nizi finally left the desk she was leaning on, and first pulled her good sister to sit down on the bed, seeing that she was obviously not resting well and her eyes were red and tired, she simply pressed it: "You sleep for a while, I'll call you when breakfast is ready, and there is money to do, I'll go to my brother to ask for it, he's a big lazy worm, he hasn't gotten up yet, and if he wants to continue to sleep lazy, he can only pay money." ”
The matter of money has been settled, Tao Nuanci relaxed, but still not sleepy: "I don't want to sleep." ”
"Then lie down," Cao Wanwan pulled the quilt over, covered her, walked to the door, and when she was about to go out, she suddenly turned around and warned: "Don't rummage through my drawers." ”
"Got it."
