Suisui at Seventy - Chapter 121
The guesses of Jiang Suisui and Song Weizheng were correct. Zhao Jiabao had no way of raising money. After becoming a watch and jade pendant, he once went to Lin Yuanzhi to try it out.
But as soon as he mentioned money-related matters, Lin Yuanzhi frowned and said, “Jiabao, do you know how difficult it is to adjust the cash of 10,000 yuan? The reason why my father can give it to you so quickly is that he first used the bank funds. Now, all my cash is not enough to make up this hole. There must be no pocket money for you recently. If you are short of money, please ask your grandpa and grandma first. My father has really no choice lately.”
Zhao Jiabao only saw Lin Yuanzhi’s perfunctory and dismissal, but he couldn’t see his burnt head.
He curled his lips secretly, comforted a few words at random, and quickly slipped away.
Lin Yuanzhi’s ATM can’t help anymore, and only Zhao Jiabao can think of it.
The money will be paid tomorrow. He rummaged through his room and couldn’t find anything valuable. Although the Zhao family is not short of money, but the style is always frugal, if it is not for grandpa and grandmother to pet him, plus he is more spared to ask for money, he would not even have a hundred yuan a month of pocket money.
Zhao Jiabao walked out of the room dejectedly, looked around, his eyes stopped in front of the study door.
There are a lot of antique decorations and calligraphy and paintings in the study. I heard that some are still worthless. Do you want to…
No, no!
Zhao Jiabao immediately denied this idea again. Grandpa in the study uses it every day, and there are often old men and old ladies from the compound who come to visit and admire them. The goal is too big. If something is missing, it may be discovered all at once. .
He moved his gaze to the bedroom of the second elder of the Zhao family again, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
There is it! Grandma seems to have saved a lot of jewelry over the years, including jade, pearl, gold and silver jewelry, all in a carved wooden box. From time to time, he saw that his grandmother would open it alone, and occasionally picked it up and stroked it, with a memorial look on his face. It’s a pity that this old woman only seems to love collecting, and she has never seen her wear it.
Zhao Jiabao swallowed, thinking that if he takes one piece at a time, it should not be so easy to find.
Just do it, it just so happened that the two elders of this meeting were going out and the Zhao Weiguo and his wife were not at home, so Zhao Jiabao opened the door of the two elders of the Zhao family and stretched out his sinful hand to the jewelry box. .
However… the box was actually locked!
Zhao Jiabao was so angry that he almost fell the box. After thinking about it, he calmed down and rummaged in the drawers around for a long time, but he didn’t find the key.
Zhao Jiabao squinted his eyes, and suddenly thought that grandma always took a bunch of keys with her when she went out. It seemed that she was carrying the keys of this box with her 80% of the time.
He frustrated the box and threw the box back on the table, causing a clanging inside.
·
On the day when the money was paid, it was calm and sunny, but Zhao Jiabao trembled like a sieve, and tremblingly handed 2450 to the fierce bully leader.
The bully snatched his head, opened it and took a look, then raised his fist to punch: “So little?! You **** **** me!”
“No, no!” Zhao Jiabao hurriedly protected his head and explained, “How can I dare to play with you? Get it! You will use it first, and then give me some time, and I will slowly get the rest for you.”
“Slowly?” The bully spit on his head, dissatisfied, “How slow is it? You don’t want to drag me for ten or twenty years?”
“Absolutely not!” Zhao Jiabao promised, “I’m telling you the truth, I have to take the remaining money slowly from home, and I won’t let them find out. I promise, I will give it to you every few days. One time… one or two thousand at a time! It will be cleared if you divide it into four times!”
The bully patted the two thousand yuan in his hand, squinted his eyes and looked at Zhao Jiabao contemptuously, and said slowly: “I will give it to you every few days… Forget it, you know that you have nothing to do with it. The family paid for it.”
“Yes, yes, you are right! I really don’t have any money myself!” Zhao Jiabao was particularly able to bend and stretch at this time.
The bully head said: “Give it once every three days, two thousand each time, you have to make up the remaining eight thousand for me. The extra four hundred and five are calculated as interest.”
Zhao Jiabao suddenly shouted: “What?! There is interest?!”
The bully raised his fist on his head and gave him an indisputable look: “What the **** wasting my time and paying interest? Tell you, if I don’t see you every three days, let’s be at the door of Zhao’s house. See.”
After speaking, he patted Zhao Jiabao threateningly on the cheek, and then led the person away.
Zhao Jiabao slumped on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief, but soon fell into endless anxiety.
After Song Weizheng received the news of the inquiries, his lips curled up slightly, obviously very satisfied.
With enough time, he will be able to recover the long-lost jade pendant immediately.
·
Three days later, Zhao Jiabao handed in two thousand yuan as promised.
The bully counted with satisfaction, explained to him three days later, and then went on, and then left with his little brother.
Zhao Jiabao wiped his sweat, and thought to himself, it’s worth noting that he sneaked out his grandma’s key and went outside to take another photo.
It’s a pity that the jewelry in the box doesn’t seem to be very valuable. He took a string of pearl necklaces the day before yesterday, but only a few hundred. No way, he could only turn around and grab two more pieces before he could barely make up two thousand.
Fortunately, grandma didn’t seem to be aware of it, which made the Zhao family bolder.
Two more days later, he again came to the **** shop with a few pieces of jewelry.
The old man at the pawnshop gave him a complicated look, but in the end he didn’t say anything.
At this time, Zhao Jiabao had completely forgotten the jade pendant he had punished, and only wanted to finish it quickly with the money.
Soon after he left, Jiang Suisui and Song Weizheng rushed to the **** shop next and bought the jade pendant that just expired that day.
The old man happily saw off the guests while counting the hot money.
What dispute does he care about? Anyway, the things and money are in his hands. Why not make a difference if you change hands?
·
Song Weizheng, who received the jade pendant, seemed to be relieved of a heavy burden and heaved a sigh of relief.
He rubbed the jade pendant in a mixed mood.
Seeing that he was silent, Jiang Suisui said: “What’s the matter? Are you unhappy after finding the jade pendant?”
Song Weizheng shook his head and said, “The jade pendant is lost and recovered, but some of the lost ones can’t be returned.”
Jiang Suisui felt a little heavy in her heart when she heard this, and she comforted: “Anyway, this is also a consolation for Aunt Lan.”
“Right,” Jiang Suisui changed the subject, “Aren’t you looking for someone to **** this jade? Why don’t we catch Zhao Jiabao and ask?”
Song Weizheng chuckled, “Caught it? When did you start to be a bandit?”
“Otherwise, what should I do?” Jiang Suisui said unconvinced. “It’s impossible to talk face-to-face and peacefully, right? He certainly won’t cooperate.”
Song Weizheng said seriously: “Don’t do things that violate the law and discipline. If he doesn’t cooperate, then he will attack.”
After speaking, Song Weizheng rubbed her head and walked forward.
Jiang Suisui straightened his tousled hair, and while chasing after him, he said speechlessly, “Knock it on the side? You can make it clear!”
The two said that they went back to school in a noisy manner, but they were blocked at the school gate.
Jiang Suisui looked at the sudden visitor in front of him, somewhat embarrassed: “Hi… Comrade Liang Sihui?”
Liang Sihui stood tall at the gate of the school, dressed in a shirt and long skirt, and her beautiful hair was blown by the breeze. It was like a beautiful landscape.
She glanced at Jiang Suisui and said lightly: “Call me Sihui, don’t be so inconsistent.”
After speaking, Liang Sihui turned to look at Song Weizheng, a little pink on her face, and a softer voice: “Big Brother Song, let me see you. How is the injury on your arm? I have been doing it every day recently. I went to the hospital, but I never met you. Didn’t you go for a dressing change for a checkup?”
She looked at Song Weizheng’s arms covered by the coat, with a worried look on her face: “Brother Song, take your clothes off, let me see it for you? The weather is getting hotter and the wound is easy to get infected. My mother is Doctor, I have been affected by my ears since I was a child, and I will see a little bit of illness and injury.”
After speaking, she couldn’t help taking a step forward, raising her hand as if she wanted to check Song Weizheng’s arm.
Song Weizheng took two steps back, frowned and said, “No, I’m almost fine.”
Liang Sihui had a helpless expression of “Don’t be brave,” and then turned to Jiang Suisui and said, “Comrade Jiang Suisui, Brother Song is so careless, why are you not a little careful and thoughtful as his object? At him?”
Jiang Suisui looked at her with a reproachful expression, and couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth, a little speechless.
“Um… call me Sui Sui, don’t need to be so dismissive.” Jiang Sui Sui chuckled lightly and explained, “His injury is really good. We will go to the hospital every two or three days. ,do not worry.”
Liang Sihui didn’t believe it: “But I’ve never seen you in the hospital? Don’t take this injury seriously, it will be bad if you accidentally get it.”
Jiang Suisui: “Actually… there is a closer hospital in front of our school, so every time I go to that one…”
“Ah…” Liang Sihui was taken aback for a moment, and then she pulled the hair around her ears a little embarrassingly, “It turned out to be like this… I said, why didn’t I see Big Brother Song coming…”
Jiang Suisui smiled slightly: “So don’t worry about it. Song Weizheng is in good health and he is recovering quickly. Even the gauze can be picked in two days.”
“That’s good, then I can rest assured…” Liang Sihui paused, as if she had no intention of ending, she hesitated to look at Song Weizheng from time to time.
Song Weizheng was a little impatient. He just wanted to interrupt their conversation, but every time Jiang Suishi wanted to talk, he would pull the corner of his clothes from behind, telling him not to talk.
Jiang Suisui was also sighing straight at the moment, and Liang Sihui’s thoughts were too obvious, and it was obvious that she completely ignored the existence of her object. But she is Professor Liang’s daughter after all, and she hasn’t done anything unusual so far. Jiang Suisui could bear it.
