Chapter 53: Meritorious Service
"I..." Bai Mei's mouth opened, "Don't." โ
"It is natural to pay back debts. Since she borrowed the money from you, she should pay you back! โ
Bai Mei's hands were sweating under the table, "I want to see Niannian and say a few words to her." โ
Yu Xiangyang said: "My sister doesn't want to see you. She said she had been strangers with you since that day. โ
Bai Mei is ashamed and hateful at the moment!
She hated saying those words impulsively that day, otherwise, just like Ding Yunfei said, they went to Yu Xiangnian to apologize and say something good, and the matter would be over.
She hates Xiang Nian even more! It was Yu Xiangnian who forced her to be like this! She can't wait to tear her up right now!
Yu Xiangyang said again: "The money, I've returned it to you, please give me the bike and watch." โ
Bai Mei sat in her seat, biting her lip tightly, motionless.
People who watch the excitement can't wait, and start to say a word to me.
"Comrade Baimei, you should take out your bicycle and watch!"
"That day, you and Comrade Yu Xiangnian said in front of everyone, one will pay back the money today, and the other will lose the bicycle and watch!"
"Comrade Baimei, you don't plan to pay compensation, do you? We didn't see a new bike parked anywhere. โ
โยทยทยทยทยทยทโ
Bai Mei's face turned pale, her eyes swept over everyone, and she hoped in her heart that Ding Yunfei could stand up and help her at this moment.
At this time, Ding Yunfei was hiding in the dormitory building, pretending to repair the circuit.
He just did it on purpose.
First, he was afraid that Bai Mei would pull him out as a gunman again, and second, he was afraid that Xiang Nian would misunderstand him helping Bai Mei, so he simply left the logistics office early in the morning on the grounds that there was a problem with the circuit in the dormitory building.
Bai Mei searched for a long time, but did not find the figure, and was extremely disappointed in her heart.
The people around him were still talking.
"Comrade Baimei, if you say something, everyone is waiting!"
"Didn't you buy it?"
"Even if you don't buy a new one, you should give everyone an explanation."
โยทยทยทโ
Baimei is isolated, aggrieved and humiliated.
"Wow..." She lay on the table and cried.
"It's not! What are you crying about? At that time, you and Comrade Yu agreed to compensate for things today, and we didn't force you to compensate. โ
"That's it! If you can't pay for it, just say it generously, what does it mean to cry? โ
Yin Yuankai was in his office, listening to the movement outside.
He didn't want to meddle in this matter, but the noise outside was getting louder and louder, and Bai Mei was crying.
How to say, Bai Mei is his niece, and the person he recruited.
She was ashamed, and it was his face that she lost.
He reluctantly walked out and squeezed in from the people watching the excitement.
"What are you crying about!" He scolded Bai Mei, "What can't be said? Is there a shame in it? โ
Bai Mei raised her head and said with teary eyes: "Minister Yin, I..."
Needless to say, Yin Yuankai knew that Bai Mei did not buy a new bicycle and watch.
What else could he say!
I can only discuss with Yu Xiangyang with Haosheng, "Comrade Xiangyang, otherwise how many more days will Comrade Baimei be given?" This new bicycle and watch cost more than 300 yuan, so much money, she must not have scraped together enough in the past few days. โ
Yu Xiangyang is better at talking than Yu Xiangnian, and it is his comrades-in-arms who discuss with him, so he can't help but give face to others.
"Then give her another three days." Yu Xiangyang said.
Yin Yuankai originally planned to discuss with Yu Xiangyang for a week, but Yu Xiangyang had already given him face grace time, and he couldn't say anything more.
"Okay, then three days, let Comrade Baimei compensate Comrade Bai Mei for something new next Tuesday."
Yu Xiangyang said: "Then what if she can't pay it back?" โ
The corners of Yin Yuankai's mouth twitched.
What to do? What could he do?
But now that he has stood up to help Bai Mei speak, he can't give up halfway, let people see the joke.
"In this way, I will vouch for her, if she can't pay it, you come to me!"
After getting this sentence, Yu Xiangyang said: "Then it's decided, I'll go." โ
Yu Xiangyang wanted to get the two hundred yuan on the table, but was stopped by Yin Yuankai.
"Comrade Xiangyang, since this money was returned to Comrade Baimei by Comrade Yu, I will accept it from Comrade Baimei first. Everyone looked at the testimony, the money, Comrade Yu has already repaid, and in three days, Comrade Bai Mei will compensate Comrade Yu for his new bicycle and watch. โ
In fact, everyone present knew that Bai Mei had no money to buy a bicycle and a watch, and Yin Yuankai wanted to leave the two hundred yuan to give Bai Mei.
Yu Xiangyang didn't say anything, left the logistics office, and the people watching the excitement also dispersed.
In the office, there are still Yin Yuankai and Bai Mei left.
"Uncle, thank you just now."
Yin Yuankai glared at her hatefully, "You keep the two hundred yuan, and hurry up tomorrow to buy the bicycle and watch." โ
Bai Mei said weakly, "I don't have any money." โ
"How much is missing?"
"I don't have a penny."
Yin Yuankai was so angry that he almost had a heart attack, "For the past few days, you haven't gone to collect money, what are you busy doing?" โ
Bai Mei lowered her head and did not speak.
She didn't dare to say it, she pinned her hopes on Xiang Nian not bothering with her, and she didn't dare to say it, she thought that at the critical moment, Ding Yunfei would come out to help her.
"You didn't tell your parents about this?"
Bai Mei shook her head.
How dare she say it! With so much money, her parents can't beat her to death!
Yin Yuankai reluctantly took out a wad of money from his pocket, left a few pieces of change for himself, and put all the six pieces of unity on the Baimei table.
"Here are sixty pieces, you take them first, and with the two hundred, it is already two hundred and sixty pieces. You talk to your parents, find a way to borrow fifty or sixty yuan, and buy the things to pay for them first! โ
"Besides, you didn't suffer a loss, Yu Xiangnian gave you something new. Your family should have bought these two things in advance, and you won't have to buy them when you get married. Moreover, if you work here, you will have a salary of eighteen yuan a month, forty or fifty yuan, and you will earn enough in less than half a year. โ
Yin Yuankai walked to the door of the office, turned around and came back, and said very seriously: "Baimei, I am your uncle, and I only stood up today to help you speak." Next Tuesday, you must bring your bike and watch, or I won't spare you!" โ
When Yu Xiangyang returned to the group, he learned a good news.
The five people who went to fight the wolf each received a third-class merit, and they were also rewarded with two hundred yuan and two hot water kettles.
The award order reads: For the discovery and surrender of thirty kilograms of gold, which made a significant contribution to the development of the country, they are hereby rewarded!
This is determined by the rewards issued by the Southern Theater of Operations, and is higher than the rewards issued by the Military Region and the Army Corps.
Yu Xiangyang clutched the red certificate and the third-class merit medal with both hands, and closed his mouth happily.
He bumped Cheng Jingmo, who was expressionless beside him, with his shoulder, "Cheng Jingmo, we won't wipe that wolf dung in vain!" โ
Cheng Jingmo looked at the reward decision with deep eyes, and thought of Yu Xiangnian.
