Siheyuan: Starting from the promotion of an engineer

Chapter 287

Stick is in the second grade this year, and after the summer vacation, he will be in the third grade.

Eight years old is no longer the mindless thief who was five or six a few years ago.

Now the stick is no longer a little devil who casually goes to Shazhu's house to rummage things, relying on the pampering of grandma and mother.

He now knows the serious consequences of being caught after stealing.

Therefore, it is no longer easy to sell.

But it doesn't mean he's getting better, after all, the foundation is there.

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang never beat him for stealing anything.

During the few years when Shazhu didn't sit in a hut, he praised him even more for his ability.

Although two fingers were broken by Lin Zhen's mousetrap and Liu Yuhua beat him twice, he didn't think there was anything wrong with stealing.

He thinks that being able to steal things into his hands is a skill, but if he is discovered, it is because he has not practiced the skill well.

Just like the last time I stole the radio, I sold it for more than 40 yuan, although I was beaten.

But mother did not give the money to Shazhu, and grandma praised herself afterwards.

Later, he stole a few more things, and what was discovered was the stealing of eggs from Liu Yuhua's house.

The rest were never discovered.

In the past six months, no one has helped Jia's family, and the stick can feel the change in his mother.

I have grown up and become sensible. I know that eating fine grains so often can improve my life, and my mother's salary must not be enough.

Just thinking about where to find something.

Just after school, I found a deaf old lady counting food stamps at the door.

Stick immediately had an idea in his mind.

When the deaf old lady saw the stick came back, she quickly packed up the food stamps.

I thought to myself, if I am not afraid of thieves stealing, I am afraid of thieves thinking about it.

Sticky, it's not grandma, I'm on guard against you.

It was you who stole things and the family never cared.

You have been honest these past few months, but I still have to be careful.

Stick bowed his head and went home to do his homework honestly.

The deaf old lady deliberately put a food stamp under the pillow with a corner leaking.

Then pack the rest on your body.

Leaning on crutches, I went to the backyard to look for Liu Yuhua, and I deliberately didn't lock the door, but took it lightly.

He coughed at the door, and walked slowly towards the backyard.

She thought that the stick would definitely come into the house. As long as the food stamp was missing, she would be more careful in the future. The money and ticket were not hidden in the cabinet, and they were all carried with her.

But when she finished eating and talking in the backyard, and came home after nine o'clock, the food stamps were still there, and even the position of the pillow hadn't changed.

Apparently the stick wasn't in the house.

The deaf old lady breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed at herself: "Oh, it's not good to get close to that boy Lin Zhen, he has learned to be on his guard, and this kid has really changed for the better, I shouldn't treat him like a thief anymore Look."

The deaf old lady shook her head when she thought of the scene of the stick being beaten.

I feel that the stick has gotten better after being beaten. As an old lady in her 80s, she shouldn't look at her child like a thief.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the deaf old lady walked slowly to the street with a cane.

Sister Sun, the opportunist, has been waiting under the big elm tree for a long time.

"Hey, old ancestor, why did you come here? I've been waiting for a long time."

The deaf old lady squinted her eyes and smiled, "You have to wait for me to finish my breakfast."

"Hey, you can't finish your business before eating. If you have money, go for a bowl of fried liver, isn't it better than eating at home?"

"Okay, okay, hurry up, I'm still waiting to go to Pigeon City."

Every month on the second day after the subdistrict office distributes orphans and widows subsidies, the deaf old lady would come to Sister Sun to resell the food coupons.

Twenty cents a catty, forty catties, eight yuan.

The deaf old lady took the money and whispered: "I look for you every month, why don't you give me an extra dime?"

Sister Sun frowned and said: "Okay, old ancestor, I dare to accept this piece. I don't know the bottom line. If you change someone else, they won't dare to take it!"

The deaf old lady curled her lips and said: "Not only do I know the basics, but I also know what you sell for. No, I will give you my monthly food stamps before they are warmed up. You have to give me an extra ten cents. I will go to the public house to buy them." Go to the shop early and have a bowl of fried liver!"

"Hey, you old lady, haven't you already had breakfast? Don't try to bully me, I have to go back quickly and stop talking to you!"

The deaf old lady grabbed Big Sister Sun, "No, Miss Sun, you have to add another ten cents to me, or I will scream!"

"Don't, okay, okay, I really can't do anything about you, let's not take this as an example, and next time I won't want you!"

"Hey hey, okay!"

The deaf old lady cheated and asked for an extra dime, she was very happy, and felt that she was back to the time when everyone was in awe of her.

After returning to the Shazhu house, the deaf old lady counted the money and added the 3 yuan from the street office, a total of 11 yuan.

Folded it and put it under the mattress at the head of the bed, no longer be wary of sticks.

I'm going to wait for Sunday and let Yuhua go to the vegetable market to buy some good things.

After Liu Yuhua got off work in the afternoon, the deaf old lady followed her to the backyard.

Not long after her front foot left, the stick got into the silly pillar house like a rabbit.

Bang Geng once followed Qin Huairu to sell food stamps, so he naturally knew about the deaf old lady reselling food stamps.

He also knows that reselling food stamps is speculative, it is a mistake, and he will have to squat if he is caught.

So he waited for the deaf old lady to resell the food coupons before stealing the money.

In that case, even if the deaf old lady finds that she has lost her money, she will not make a sound.

Because once it is announced, the deaf old lady will also be punished.

Stick figured this out, so he didn't search the house yesterday.

And today is the day when the deaf old lady resells food stamps, and Bang Geng has already figured out the details.

He didn't make a move for a few months, just to make the deaf old lady relax her vigilance, and now it's easy to catch him when he makes a move.

Stick went to the house and rummaged a few times, and found the deaf old lady's money under the mattress at the head of the bed.

A total of 11 yuan and 1 hair, stacked neatly.

The stick put it in his pocket without saying a word, but after thinking about it carefully, the deaf old lady was fine staying at home during this time.

Give her the old nest now, don't make the old lady mad.

After getting angry with a grandpa, grandma often regretted it, saying that no one would help us.

The old lady is older, I'd better save some for her, maybe I can steal it in the future.

Stick immediately took out the money again, but seeing so much money in his hand, he was really reluctant to let him put down some more.

After all, a child is a child. Although he has a scheming mind, what he does is unreliable after all.

After thinking for a while, Bang Gon gritted his teeth, left the change for the deaf old lady, turned around and walked out.

The deaf old lady was proudly saying in the backyard: "Yuhua, let's improve our lives this Sunday, and I'll give you money. You can go to the Dongdan vegetable market and buy a big rooster!"

Liu Yuhua pretended to be angry and said, "Grandma, are you selling food stamps again? How many times have I told you that it was a mistake, and you will be out of luck if you get caught!"

The deaf old lady laughed and said, "Yueyue, you don't even spend my food stamps, so why keep them, I can still save them for Fei Biao if I resell them!"

Liu Yuhua said: "I don't want your money, you save your own money, and enjoy the blessings in the future, and you must not resell food stamps again, do you hear me?"

The deaf old lady smiled: "I can't hear, I'm deaf!"

"Yes, it's time for you to be deaf, Mom, you should look after grandma in the future, and don't let her go to that big sister Sun again!"

Yuhua's mother smiled and said: "I don't know when the old lady will leave the house, okay, after the street office finishes distributing the orphans and widows subsidies next month, I will definitely keep an eye on her!"

The deaf old lady pursed her lips, narrowed her eyes and said, "No one wants to stare at me..."

After dinner, the deaf old lady happily went back to Shazhu's house.

Before going to bed, I lifted the mattress again.

Prepare a little money, take out two yuan to improve life, and put the rest in the backyard and put it in the cabinet.

Now that he passed Liu Yuhua's level, he can directly take it out tomorrow.

Otherwise, with Liu Yuhua's character, he could take the money and go to Sister Sun overnight to withdraw.

"Hey~ I, I, my money!"

The deaf old lady's eyes widened suddenly.

As soon as I lifted the mattress, except for the ten cents, the 11 yuan disappeared.

The deaf old lady was stunned, but lost 11 yuan.

The first object of suspicion is the stick thief.

But she is a smart person, there is no way to ask about this matter, and if there is no evidence, she will not make a fuss rashly.

Especially since the money was obtained by reselling food stamps, there was no way to report the case.

But the deaf old lady is not a dumb person.

Immediately went to the backyard on crutches.

"Yuhua, I lost my money, the 8 yuan from the food stamps and the 3 yuan from the street office are gone!"

"What? Lost the money? Where did you put it?"

"Oh, I'm afraid you'll tell me that I want to give you some air today, and I'll put it in the cabinet tomorrow. When I came to eat, I put the pillar bed down. I just went back and saw that there was only a dime left. I still pretended to be stubborn." Ask Big Sister Sun for it!"

"Hey! Tell me about you, okay, don't be sad, I'll help you find it!"

Liu Yuhua handed the child to his mother, got up, weighed a rolling pin, and went out.

The deaf old lady hastily pulled her back.

"Wait a minute, my silly granddaughter, are you looking for a stick?"

Liu Yuhua chuckled, "If you don't look for him, look for someone else, there is no other person in this courtyard who can do such a thing!"

The deaf old lady shook her head and said: "Don't be so impulsive, we don't have any proof, it's Fei Biao who made a quarrel directly, and Qin Huairu and her mother-in-law have done well in the past few months, no one can find fault, if you go If we quarrel with Qin Huairu, the neighbors will say that we are bullying."

Liu Yuhua said with a smile: "No matter how good they are these few months, it can't offset the fact that the stick stole the money. You don't have to guess that the stick stole it. When I threatened him in the past, he would tell the truth."

"No, no, no, Bang Ji is stubborn. Even if you found 11 yuan, you still can't prove that he stole it from me, and the 8 yuan in it was money from reselling food stamps. You can't report it."

Liu Yuhua frowned and said, "Then you can suffer from being dumb?"

The deaf old lady smiled slightly, pinched the corner of the dime note with two fingers, and waved it in front of Liu Yuhua.

"Go get Lin Zhen to fumigate with that iodine, won't the fingerprints come out? The last time the stick smashed Yan Bugui's solar cooker, that's what Lin Zhen used. I won't go to him anymore. You go and help me find it, there will be evidence with fingerprints."

Liu Yuhua suddenly smiled and said: "Hey! Jiang is still very old. This time, no matter whether it is a stick or someone, report it immediately after finding out, and say that I gave you the money. As long as you don't mention the matter of reselling food stamps, no one will." Can't find that!"

The deaf old lady nodded, "Okay, go find Lin Zhen!"
