Chapter 4 Brother and Sister
"Want to block me? Next life."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Xiaofan put on the sun hat on his head and walked out from the back door of a shop in the Antique City. He had already spotted Wu Chuanbao and the others blocking the front and rear streets of the Antique City. There are not only two doors in the antique city, many shops have opened the back door, there is no one with 80 people, so don't even think about blocking people here.

After passing through several small alleys, Su Xiaofan came to a vegetable market in a residential area, bought half a catty of meat, an old hen and some vegetables, and after thinking about it, he called it the chicken feet that my little sister loves to eat. Just took it back to the place where I lived.

The consumption in Luochuan City is not very high. The place Su Xiaofan rents is not far from the antique city and the high school where his younger sister is studying. It is a house built in the old city in the 80s of the last century. The house is older than Su Xiaofan, so the rent is natural It is not expensive, two bedrooms and one living room only cost 900 yuan a month, and there are complete appliances and furniture inside. Although my sister comes back to live one day a week, Su Xiaofan still leaves the room in Xiangyang to his sister.

It costs five yuan to kill a chicken in the vegetable market. Su Xiaofan didn't give up, so he boiled a pot of boiling water. Su Xiaofan is very skilled in killing the chicken and removing its feathers. He cleaned the chicken in a few minutes, and then sat in the pot and put in the seasoning to stew the chicken broth. Basically, Su Xiaofan cooks such a meal for his sister every week. In his words, the chicken soup contains all the nutrients. The chicken is torn apart and topped with ginger sauce and vinegar. sister.

Turning on the fire of another stove, Su Xiaofan stir-fried shredded pork and garlic sprouts, patted a cucumber salad, turned down the chicken soup to low heat, and then returned to the living room and turned on the fan to cool off. Looking at the time, I guess the little girl will have to wait It took half an hour to get home, and that would be just enough for dinner.

"The number you dialed is out of service area, please try again later."

Hearing the voice of Miss Telecom from the mobile phone, Su Xiaofan hung up the phone helplessly. During this period of time, he called his father several times a day, but he didn't know whether his father would leave the boat at this moment. Wherever the ocean goes, it is always impossible to get through, but it is common to have no signal in the ocean, Su Xiaofan is not worried about the safety of his father, but he is a little worried about his sister's tuition.

Although he earned 8000 yuan from the surname Wu by playing around the corner, now Su Xiaofan only has 5000 yuan on hand, which is still [-] yuan away from [-] yuan. According to Su Xiaofan's thinking, in addition to tuition fees, at least I also need to prepare [-] to [-] yuan for my younger sister in case of emergencies. As the saying goes, if a poor family has a rich life, it doesn't matter if Su Xiaofan can barely afford it, but he must never let his sister who is studying abroad suffer.

"There is nothing valuable in this house." Su Xiaofan looked around the living room with some depression, but apart from some molds for making bronze wares, there were no other objects.

"By the way, I don't know if this thing is worth money?"

Su Xiaofan suddenly untied the neckline, and pulled out a pendant worn by a gold chain from his neck. This pendant was oval in shape, with a dark body, and an irregular hole in the middle, which was just enough for the gold chain to pass through. The whole pendant looked very beautiful. It's unremarkable, if you throw it on the ground, probably only the trash pickers will pick it up as scrap copper and rotten iron.

According to my father, this thing was obtained by accident when my father went overseas a few years ago.

At that time, when Su Weixuan's cruise ship was passing through the waters of Bermuda, a cruise ship accidentally hit a rock and was about to sink. Naturally, we couldn't do nothing if we encountered such a thing. Under Su Weixuan's command, more than 500 people on the cruise ship They were all rescued, and this pendant was specially given to Su Weixuan as a gift by one of the rescued guests in order to thank the captain.

The guest was a very famous collector of meteorites, and he was also very wealthy, but he escaped from the cruise ship and couldn't bring anything down, so he gave the pendant hanging around his neck to Su Weixuan.

According to the guest, this pendant was obtained from a desert when he was looking for a meteorite rain that landed on the earth 30 years ago. Strange to say, the man saw a basketball-sized pendant on the sand. Meteorite, but as soon as I touched it with my hand, the entire meteorite was deserted, and it became particles that were finer than sand and scattered, and in the middle of the meteorite, there was such an object.

After the meteorite collector took this small piece of meteorite back, he also did various tests, but no matter how he analyzed it, he couldn't detect the properties of this meteorite, and he couldn't even determine whether it was metal.

Although the appearance of this thing is not very good-looking, but thinking that it is not easy to come by, the collector used a rope to hang it around his neck. This hanging has lasted for decades. If it was not for being rescued by Su Weixuan, he had nothing , that collector may not be willing to give this thing away.

Su Weixuan didn't care much about the stuff, and threw it to his son after returning home. Su Xiaofan thought it was fashionable to hang a pendant around his neck, so he kept hanging it. Now that he was short of money, he couldn't help but fight The idea of ​​this thing.

"It's said that this thing is a meteorite, I'm afraid no one will believe it. Dad was fooled in all likelihood." Playing with the pendant in his hand, Su Xiaofan gave a wry smile. This thing is neither gold nor iron, but more like a stone. It doesn't matter at all. He also asked someone to show it to him in the antique city, and what others gave was the evaluation of "scrap copper and rotten iron".

"Forget it, it really doesn't work, let Brother Gang open his mouth in a few days." Su Xiaofan hung the pendant back around his neck, and the younger sister's tuition fee is not completely helpless. With the friendship between him and Zheng Dagang, I can borrow tens of thousands of yuan It must be no problem to transfer the money for a year or so, but Su Xiaofan is used to being independent, and he is still unwilling to ask others for help unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Xiaofan, Su Xiaofan, I'm back!" A crisp shout interrupted Su Xiaofan's thinking, and then the door was opened from the outside, and a girl about 1.7 meters tall bounced towards Su Xiaofan. come here
"Brother, it's not big or small." Su Xiaofan pushed his sister aside, and said angrily, "You are so old, you still jump around when you walk, you are crazy, what should you do if you can't get married in the future."

"Huh, there are so many people chasing me in school, and people write love letters to me every day, how can this girl not get married?" Su Xiaoxiao chuckled, shrugged her nose, and ran straight to the kitchen, yelling Said: "The cafeteria in the school is really terrible. It's better for my brother. I count on this meal every week when I go home to replenish my blood."

"Who doesn't have the eyes to chase you? Let me tell you, you have to study hard and don't use those crooked brains." Su Xiaofan's mouth was stiff, but his heart skipped a beat. His father was not here, so he had to take good care of his sister, absolutely not. puppy love.

"I know, this girl doesn't like those little kids." Su Xiaoxiao snorted and started to lift the lid of the pot.

Not to mention, although she doesn't have a regular shape, Su Xiaoxiao looks very beautiful, not to mention her height of 1.7 meters. Quite tall, similar to Su Xiaofan. Speaking of which, the genes of the Su family are really good. If these two brothers and sisters go to the street together, they will definitely be a sight on the street.

Su Xiaofan sighed, his younger sister was good at everything, but since she was young she followed him in the countryside to dig out birds' eggs from trees, and went down to rivers to fish for loaches, she had a bit of a wild temper, and the average man probably wouldn't be able to keep her down.

"The chicken soup is just right, don't burn it, I haven't adjusted the chicken shreds yet, why are you in a hurry." Su Xiaofan followed behind, and slapped his sister on the head, "You are a foodie, you can use the power of eating It’s good to study.”

Although Su Xiaoxiao's studies are not bad, she is just above average in the class, not a top student. Compared with Su Xiaofan, she is far behind, so that Su Weixuan feels sorry for his son. There is no problem with a top university, but Su Xiaofan has been very righteous since he was a child, and even Su Weixuan, a father, cannot change what he has decided.

"Hey, this girl is lucky, she can enter a prestigious school without studying." Su Xiaoxiao shrunk her head, but then frowned, and said, "Brother, one hundred thousand a year, the tuition fee is too expensive , Otherwise, I’d better take the college entrance examination normally, with my current grades, it’s no problem to take one of the exams.”

Su Xiaoxiao knows the situation at home. Her father is not very reliable. She spends all day on the ocean-going ship and sometimes doesn't see her face for a year or two. She can go to the third year of high school in peace and stability. Thanks to her grandfather's death a few years ago, Su Xiaoxiao and her elder brother have always been dependent on each other for life, and she still knows a little about her family's wealth.

"You don't need to worry about tuition fees. I have already prepared 10 yuan for you."

Su Xiaofan pulled away his younger sister, took the chicken out of the pot and put it on a plate, served another bowl of chicken soup for his younger sister, and said: "My business is still good now, and it's no problem to save seventy to eighty thousand a year. There is our dad, he earns US dollars, I guess dad must have at least 80 in his hands, and if he doesn’t give it to us, he is afraid that we will spend it indiscriminately.”

Although my father never mentioned his income, but now that the information is so developed, Su Xiaofan can check it online with his mobile phone, and he knows that the first officer of an ocean-going ship can earn 30 million yuan a year, and his father has been a captain for several years. Su Xiaofan's net worth of one million is what Su Xiaofan thinks about.

"Then, then I will study first. If my father has no money, I will not study." Su Xiaoxiao was also a little bit reluctant to take this opportunity, and helped Su Xiaofan bring the dishes to the table, saying: "I am the only one in our school." Those who passed the exam, the old class said, the school seems to give a bonus, I don’t know how much it can give.”

"You were the only one who got into your school? That's not right. What are you taking the exams? Your grades aren't very outstanding in the class." Su Xiaofan was taken aback when he heard this, last time he was patronizing and happy, Did not ask.

"I have taken the exam in Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry and politics. I heard that even the first and second graders have also taken the exam. Your sister is very good, so I was admitted." I don't think too much, so I live happily every day.

"That's not right, Xiao Xiao, tell me, what else did you take the test for?" Su Xiaofan is different from his younger sister, he has spent two years in a place like the antique market where there is a mixture of three religions and nine schools, so he naturally understands a truth, that is, the probability of accidental events Exactly how low.

Just like those old gentlemen who hang out in the antique market all day long, they all came here with the mentality of picking up leaks from Taobao, but Su Xiaofan has been doing business in the antique market for two years, and he has never really seen anyone pick up big leaks. Most of them are some "legends" deliberately spread by those who set up stalls in private, to increase the enthusiasm of those old men for "picking up leaks".
