Wild and sassy in the 80s

Chapter 120 Tighten Your Belt Together
Why did Erdan come out at this point?

It was because he was playing a game with his brother Dadan.

The two of them started playing after lunch. He lost too much. Seeing that he had no chance of getting back his money, and only had one yuan in his hand, he found a reason to quit the battlefield because he felt that his new mother was back.

She didn't expect to run into Su Qinghu as soon as she opened the door, and she didn't expect that the first thing Su Qinghu said when they met was to borrow money.

He opened his mouth again and again, and the idea of ​​running over was also frozen in place by her words.

"How much...how much?" Er Dan was trembling, "I, I only have one dollar."

Grandpa and grandma have given them pocket money these days, and the new mother also gave them a little before the business trip, which is enough for an extra egg a day. He originally wanted to save it, but his brother stared at him every day before leaving after eating the eggs. , so only one yuan and five dollars given by grandma survived.

I lost fifty cents just now...

Su Qinghu stretched out his hand, "One piece is fine, bring it."

Erdan: "!!!" I really want it, just one piece, is it worth it?Doesn't she have hundreds of them herself?Is it all spent? !
"Mom, my brother has money too!" After Erdan gave the money to Su Qinghu, when he thought of becoming destitute, he couldn't help but want to drag others into the water. "He kept the one dollar and five dollars that grandma gave him, and the fifty cents I won just now!"

Su Qinghu: "Then you ask him to take out the money, as if I borrowed it, and pay you back in a few days."

"Okay!" Erdan responded, and disappeared in front of Su Qinghu with a "swoosh", and then his shouting sound came from the yard.

Su Qinghu looked at the uneasy thin man beside him, "Wait a moment."

After finishing speaking, Da Dan came out, walked to her side with a stern face, reached out and handed Su Qinghu a piece of money for one yuan and two pieces of fifty cents.

Adults borrow money from children, saying that they borrow money just to make it sound nice, and they never repay it.

But if you don't pay it back, don't pay it back. It's much better than handing over the money under the pretext.

Su Qinghu took the money, took out his own fifty cents, put them according to size, and handed them to the thin man, "The top fifty cents is your salary, and the bottom three are for your emergency. Pay back when you have spare money.”

Erdan blinked, then was startled.

The new mother spends her own money to only [-] cents, then borrows money from them, and then lends it to others?

As for Dadan, from seeing Su Qinghu take out fifty cents and then having a clean bag, to when she lent the money they borrowed to others, her face was expressionless, even though Su Qinghu came back and made him a little happy , I don't feel happy now.

"Thank you! Thank you!" The man bowed again and again, "I will definitely return the money to you."

Su Qinghu nodded, and carried the box into the yard without any hassle. Looking at the man's eyes full of water before closing the door, he finally said one more sentence, "When life is hard, try to hold on, don't do stupid things, Don't do anything illegal."

After thinking about it, Su Qinghu asked, "Are you literate?"

"I, I am a rural teacher who just retired this year." The skinny man answered Su Qinghu suppressing his sobs.

Su Qinghu nodded, without much expression on his face, and looked back at the big bastard behind him, "Who will bring me a pen and paper?"

Big Dan turned around sullenly, went to get the pen and paper first, gave it to Su Qinghu, then frowned at the skinny man, his eyes gradually darkened.

"I'll give you the address of the Red Society. You can see if you can get help there." Su Qinghu said while writing on the paper.

The man subconsciously asked, "What is Honghui?"

"The Red Cross, restored at the beginning of the opening, participates in humanitarian assistance." Su Qinghu handed over the paper, "Go over and see if you can apply for assistance."

In this day and age, after all, the news is too late and the publicity is not in place. Many ordinary people don't know the relevant social organizations that serve as assistants.

"Thank you! Thank you!"

Su Qinghu nodded and closed the door.

Turning around, facing Dadan Erdan's piercing eyes, Su Qinghu took a breath, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Mom, you... have no money?" Erdan asked hesitantly.

Su Qinghu carried the suitcase and walked to my living room, "Stupid? Isn't this obvious? You guys didn't see it when I paid for it just now."

This is too straightforward to say, so confident that the usually small-mouthed bastards can't catch it.

Big Egg: "I lied to you earlier... have you taken out the money from the handicraft basket?"

"I took it out." Su Qinghu confessed without waiting for him to continue asking, "I took it all out, and even spent all the money your father left me."

Er Dan gasped for an instant, his eyes were as big as copper bells, did he spend all that money? !
Big Egg: "..."

For some reason, Dadan suddenly remembered the money in his and Erdan's passbook, and had a bad feeling.

"Not even a dime?" Erdan couldn't believe it.

"Well, I've lost a dime." Su Qinghu put the suitcase in the living room, leaned back on the chair, and called Dadan, "I'm thirsty, Dadan."

Then he looked at Erdan, "Can Erdan help me get a wet towel?"

The two of them stared dumbfounded at Su Qinghu, who was a bachelor with a fearless expression, and felt like bang their heads against the wall.

You have no money, but you are poor and generous? !

Er Dan wanted to rush out, "Then I'll go get our money back!"

"Wait!" Su Qinghu called Erdan to stop, "Go and twist a wet towel for me first, and then open the box."

Erdan frowned, thought about it, and went to twist the towel for Su Qinghu first.But Da Dan still stood still, looked at her and asked, "Is everything you bought with money in the box?"

Su Qinghu just smiled and said nothing.

Da Dan stared at her for a long time, and finally poured water for her.

Erdan came back after twisting the towel, handed it to Su Qinghu, and went to open the box silently.No matter what the new mother brings them, he will not be happy, and the family will not be able to open the pot in the future...

But as soon as the box was opened, Er Dan's happiness returned.

Er Dan, who was almost dazzled, turned his head abruptly, "Mom, let's go to grandparents' house for dinner from now on!"

Da Dan shook his hand as he poured the water.

Fortunately, it is cool and white, and people are not burned.

But he couldn't bear it anymore. Shouldn't people live with some dignity?It's not like I don't have a home, so why should I go to the old man's place for food? !
Su Qinghu wiped his face, "No."

Dadan's anger was suppressed by a third because of this sentence.

"I have hands and feet, why do I want to eat the old man?" Su Qinghu asked Erdan, "Eating and taking it, isn't it absurd? Especially since you didn't bring anything worthwhile for the old man. "

Erdan scratched his head, "But I brought them happiness."

Su Qinghumo, yes, happiness is very valuable, but she can't encourage Er Dan's behavior of getting nothing for nothing!

"Heh! I brought you happiness, why don't you let me eat and take your things?" Su Qinghu squinted at him, "Don't use your smallness as an excuse, they are still old!"

Erdan: "Okay, let's stop eating, at worst, let's wear a belt for each person, and strangle our waists to death!"

Su Qinghu looked at Er Dan inexplicably, "Can't you think about earning some money to live before you tighten your belt?"

　There will be more later.
