within Temptation

Chapter 73 Shameful Waste
The place where Zhang Wen lives is not very far from her shop. After telling me the address, she went there by herself on an electric bike.I walked there, walked for about 15 minutes, and came to the place she said.

I don't need to look for it, Zhang Wen is already waiting for me at the crossing.Seeing me walking slowly, I couldn't help but said angrily: "Dai, can you hurry up? I've been waiting for you here for a long time!"

Hearing what she said was so exaggerated, I was just amused in my heart.I thought to myself that you have an electric bike to ride, and I rely on my feet, so I am only a few minutes slower than you, how can it be so long?
However, I didn't try to argue with her, and walked directly in front of her, and said lightly, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Take me to your house, let's get to work early!"

Zhang Wen snorted, glared at me, then turned around and walked towards the entrance of the road, saying in her mouth: "Come with me, I have basically packed all my things, just help me take them down. I don't plan to take it anymore, but I can't keep the cheap dead landlord, you can throw it outside for me in a while, and whoever likes it can pick it up."

I didn't answer, just followed her.Turning a corner, we entered a residential area.It looked like a staff building of a certain unit, and Zhang Wen lived on the top floor of one of the four-story buildings.

Opening the door, I saw that her room was actually not that big, with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom, with an area of ​​at most forty square meters.As she said, the room is almost ready.In the bedroom, there are five or six travel bags or suitcases, large and small.There are also some cardboard boxes full of things, which are placed on the ground one by one.

I took a look and knew so many things, it would be very difficult to take a taxi away at once.It seems that the only way to take them all away is to spend some money to hire a cargo tricycle.So I said: "Miss Zhang, I think it's best for you to hire a tricycle. If you use a taxi to load so much luggage, I'm afraid we will have to transport it back and forth three times."

Zhang Wen gave me another look, and said, "You still need to teach me? You just have to move the things I've arranged, and I'll arrange the rest. By the way, let me tell you that those things are unnecessary. You take these unnecessary things down and throw them away, and I will find a delivery truck now. The luggage will be moved when I come back, otherwise, it will be stolen downstairs."

"Well, you don't want those things?"

"No, I don't want this, this, and this. Come here, throw away everything here, too."

"Huh? All? Including this refrigerator?"

"Yes, Xiaoru has a better and bigger refrigerator, and I don't need this one anymore."

"Isn't it? This refrigerator looks pretty good. Wouldn't it be a pity to throw it away like this?"

"Do you think it's a pity? Then I'll give it to you. That's right, it's meant to be thrown away anyway. It's better to save you than to benefit others. See for yourself, and you can keep what you need and bring it back. "

I have no choice but to stop, no matter how poor I am, Dai Yong, I still have this ambition.It's really shameless to pick up things that others don't want.

It's just that I was thinking that Zhang Wen's many unnecessary things can still be sold for a lot of money if they are sold in the flea market.Shall I remind her so she won't be so wasteful?
Next, Zhang Wen told me what things I don't want.Looking at these furniture or supplies that are almost as good as new, I can only sigh in my heart.It seems that this Zhang Wen is still a prodigal daughter. She is really a person who doesn't understand the hardships of life. She doesn't know that hard work alone is not enough to get rich, and one must also know how to be frugal.I decided in my heart that no matter what, I can't watch her throw away these items. I am a child of a poor family, so I just can't see such a serious waste.Wait a while, I must find a way to persuade her to give up the idea of ​​throwing it away. Even if she really doesn't want it, at least she can sell it for money, right?

After Zhang Wen gave her orders, she left the room and went out to find a delivery truck.I rolled up my sleeves and started to carry things.I know that the person who pulls the truck can come and help move it together as long as they give some money.So I didn't rush to move those big things. I first moved the small things, or things that I could move by myself, to the downstairs one by one.

Half an hour later, Zhang Wen came back.With her came a minivan.And I was already sweating profusely at this moment, and in the open space downstairs, the items I moved were also placed everywhere.

Zhang Wen saw that I really didn't throw away the things she said she didn't want, so she thought I really planned to have them all.He smiled at me contemptuously and said, "Hey, it seems that you helped me move once, and the harvest is quite big. It doesn't matter, just take it away, it's just rubbish anyway."

I suppressed the unhappiness in my heart and didn't come to explain anything to her.To be honest, I didn't do it for her.It's just that seeing such an astonishing waste makes me feel uncomfortable, and I can't just ignore it.Since she doesn't care, let me decide the fate of these discarded things.

Ignoring Zhang Wen, I stretched out my hand to summon the truck driver and asked him to go up and carry things with me.Zhang Wen didn't help at all, she didn't even go upstairs, she just stood downstairs and took out her mobile phone to make a call.

I went upstairs with the truck driver and discussed with him about the handling of the items.In this regard, truck drivers are also familiar with the road.He immediately told me that there is a website he specially contacts in the flea market, and I can pull all the things I don't want there to sell them at a discount.Moreover, he didn't hide from me, saying that as long as he introduced it, he could get a rebate from the second-hand collector, and I didn't need to pay him another fee.At the same time, he also told me that the price of the old goods recycling station is still fair, and I will not suffer too much.

An hour later, everything, including those that Zhang Wen didn't want, had been loaded into the pickup truck.Zhang Wen's house is not big and has a lot of items.The back shelf of a truck was packed to the brim, and there was no more empty space.Just before we left, a middle-aged woman in her 40s arrived.I saw Zhang Wen return the key to her face to face, and then said goodbye to her.Needless to say, that must be Zhang Wen's original landlord.Since then, Zhang Wen will never come back to this place.

After getting in the car, the truck driver followed my instructions and drove to the flea market first, while Zhang Wen rode her own electric car to Tang Xiaoru's house first.In fact, before this, she knew where we were going first, but she didn't ask anything, just looked at me with a sneer, and the contempt in her eyes was clear at a glance.I also know what she is thinking, but I don't explain it to her.I don't care what Zhang Wen thinks. What I care about is that these things are still useful, and they can't be thrown away for nothing.

After arriving at the flea market, after some inspection and bargaining, these things were finally exchanged for more than 400 yuan.By the time we arrived at the place where Tang Xiaoru lived, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.

This is my first time visiting Tang Xiaoru's house.Zhang Wen told me the address, but I still didn't realize that the grade of the residence here is so luxurious.This is a high-end residential area. It doesn't look big, but the high-end facilities inside, the gorgeous houses, and the beautiful greenery make me, a poor person who is used to living in the slums, dumbfounded and amazed.But thinking of Tang Xiaoru as a company boss, it's not surprising that she lives in such a place.Or, someone bought it for Tang Xiaoru at all.Don't those wealthy people who take care of mistresses and mistresses buy houses somewhere and support their wives?

It suddenly occurred to me that if Tang Xiaoru was really someone's mistress, then this must be a place where they would meet in private.If Zhang Wen lives in this way, isn't she afraid of disturbing their two-person world?Could it be that those rumors were all false.Tang Xiaoru is actually pure and clean, without those dirty private lives?
I couldn't help feeling excited and happy in my heart, by the way, it must be so!If such a thing really happened, then Tang Xiaoru would never agree to Zhang Wen's living in.No woman would be ashamed to disclose her most difficult secrets in front of her friends.Even if Tang Xiaoru agreed, her so-called lover would not agree.Zhang Wen lived here, probably not just for a day or two.Seeing that she discarded those things without hesitation, one knew that she planned to live with Tang Xiaoru permanently.This shows what?Explain that this place is indeed Tang Xiaoru's own home, and no one else lives here except Tang Xiaoru and Zhang Wen who will be living here.

Although it still cannot prove that Tang Xiaoru is not someone else's mistress, but this alone is enough to make me happy and happy.I found the apartment building where Tang Xiaoru lived, and just stopped the car when I saw Zhang Wen walking out of the corridor with a displeased face.As soon as I jumped out of the car, she sneered and said to me: "Everything is sold? The harvest is not small, right? You can make a lot of money by helping people move, so should you invite me for today's dinner?"

I smiled and didn't make excuses, and when I was in a happy mood, I didn't bother to quarrel with her.After most of the things were sold, only Zhang Wen's luggage and cardboard boxes were left in the car.Together with the truck driver, I moved to Tang Xiaoru's house on the twelfth floor of this small high-rise building.

There is an elevator in the small high-rise, so it is not very tiring to carry things.After everything was over, I saw Zhang Wen took out her wallet and started to pay the truck driver.But after I put down my things, I seriously looked at and appreciated Tang Xiaoru's warm home.

Tang Xiaoru's home is not too big, with two bedrooms, a study room, a spacious and comfortable living room, and a small balcony outside the living room.But it can be seen that Tang Xiaoru has put a lot of thought into the decoration of her home.The whole house is based on blue, making people feel like they are in the vast sky or the blue sea.All the furniture and furnishings do not look very expensive, but they show elegance and warmth everywhere.Moreover, it can be seen that Tang Xiaoru is a clean freak, all the places in the house are spotless, unbelievably clean.I took a quick look at the living room, and just as I was about to go in to see other rooms, there was a sound of closing the door behind me, and then Zhang Wen's footsteps came towards me, and the contemptuous tone sounded in my ears again: "What are you looking at? As poor as you are, you will never be able to afford such a good house in your life. I have never seen a person as greedy and cheap as you, with eyes rolling around, do you want to get something from here to sell?"

I turned around and saw that the truck driver had left.Now, I can finally stop hiding it and teach this woman a lesson.

So, while sneering, I slowly took out the money I got from selling things out of my pocket.Looking at Zhang Wen, she said in a calm tone: "Yes, I am very poor. Because I am poor, I know how shameful and distressing waste is. Miss Zhang, you are nothing like me, so I don't bother to say What's wrong with you. But let me tell you, not all poor people like to be petty and cheap. Here is 470 yuan, and there is a list. All your sold things, here are detailed price records. If If you don't believe me, you can count the money and find a computer to calculate it. Now, please take what belongs to you, and I will wait for you to calculate it before leaving. Finally, I would like to remind you, please do Don't look down on the poor. In many places, you are far worse than us poor!"

Zhang Wen seemed stunned by my words, staring blankly at the huge amount of money in my hand, unable to recover for a long time.I didn't speak, just stretched out my hand, waiting for her to take it.After a long time, Zhang Wen said in surprise, "What are you giving me this money for? Didn't I just say, can I give you all you want?"

I laughed and said, "Miss Zhang, although I am a poor person, I am not a beggar. Besides, did you hear me say I want it? I am here today, at the request of Mr. Tang, to help you move. Originally There is no need for me to help you figure out and deal with these things. However, I have always been poor and used to it, and I really can’t see this amazing waste and turn a blind eye. You can say that I am nosy or petty, anyway, I I can’t stand this kind of thing happening in front of my eyes. Ms. Zhang, you can say no to things very boldly, but you will never want money, right? You see, I’ve turned all the things you don’t want into money on my own initiative. I believe that no matter how bold you are, you won’t treat banknotes as trash and throw them away, right?”
