"Hey! Those two female classmates in the garbage dump, which class are you in?"
A sharp shout came from the playground, and Li Manjun and Li Manjun, who were addicted to rummaging through the garbage, felt their scalps go numb.
They all turned around and looked over, recognizing the person as the physical education teacher in the school. They looked at each other hastily, picked up the almost full backpack, turned around and ran away!
"What are you doing sneaking around! Stop!"
Only a fool stops.
Li Manjun and Liu Yan ran to the school gate without stopping. The physical strength they had gained from going to the countryside for many days in a row suddenly exploded, and they actually left the middle-aged physical education teacher far behind.
The other party didn't even have time to see their appearance clearly, and could only roughly judge from their appearance that they might be senior students.
The physical education teacher was halfway through the chase and was so exhausted that he had no choice but to give up.
Seeing that he didn't catch up again, Li Manjun and Liu Yan rushed out of the school gate in one breath, and then stopped to take a deep breath.
The guard, Uncle Qin, was surprised and asked, "Why are you two running away?"
He came over and took a look, my dear, the baskets on the backs of the two girls were full of rags they had picked up.
"Li Manjun, what are you doing?" Uncle Qin asked in surprise.
Li Manjun took a deep breath, wiped his sweat and replied with a smile: "I pick up rags."
Qin Shule said, "Real or false?"
Li Manjun pointed to his backpack on the ground, "See if it's true or not."
Uncle Qin was speechless, and the smile gradually solidified on his face, "Does your dad know?"
"I know, there's nothing that can't be said." Li Manjun put his hands on his hips and smiled, "Don't underestimate these paper bottles and cans, they all have recycling value."
She had a great time doing it.
Uncle Qin waved his hands wildly, indicating that he couldn't do it. Seeing that Li Manjun's loving look didn't seem like a joke, he stopped joking and asked them why they ran out just now.
Liu Yan said with a smile: "The teacher saw it and we were afraid of being caught, so we ran away."
After saying that, she even found it funny. Although she was no longer a student in the middle school in the town, she still felt scared when she saw her former teacher.
The two of them also ran out and suddenly remembered that they were adults now, no longer students, and they could discuss things with each other.
The timing was perfect. Li Manjun asked Uncle Qin about the situation of the school's garbage dump. After a field visit just now, she and Liu Yan agreed that it was a treasure land with a good inventory of recyclable garbage.
Uncle Qin said: "No matter what happens, I just burn it once a week and the garbage truck comes to pick it up once a month."
The school is not big, and there is not a lot of garbage. The garbage left after the school has disposed of it itself accumulates for a month, and sometimes even a garbage truck cannot fill it.
As for the drinking water in the canteen, the pig farmers nearby have already taken it away.
"Can outsiders go inside to pick it up? I just saw that there seemed to be no one in the garbage dump." Li Manjun asked.
Uncle Qin glanced at the two of them speechlessly, "Didn't you just go in? There is no one inside, and outsiders are not allowed to enter the school."
After saying that, he winked at the two of them, indicating that they were not considered outsiders, so he let them in.
Li Manjun understands, and that means there’s something to be said for it!
"Uncle, please tell me, I want to make some contribution to the school's environmental protection cause."
Li Manjun came closer, mysteriously took out a pack of Huazi from his trouser pocket and handed it over, whispering: "I bought it secretly behind my dad's back. Don't show it off in front of him."
Looking at the two golden words on the red package, Uncle Qin couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth crazily. He stuffed the cigarette into his jacket pocket and looked at Li Manjun with admiration, "Just wait, I'll help you ask right away."
"Don't worry, as long as you don't affect the students, the safekeeping will be successful."
Li Manjun was relieved after hearing this. Hearing the bell ringing, he waved his hand and said, "Uncle, I'll wait for your good news."
Carrying backpacks, Liu Yan and she went to the scrap station and exchanged another ten dollars.
Mainly the piece of iron, other scattered old books, waste paper and plastic bottles are light in weight and cannot be sold for much.
When I went home, I met Li Lijun and Li Jianjun on the street after school. They immediately left their classmates and followed Li Manjun.
"Sister Yanzi." The two of them greeted Liu Yan warmly.
"Lijun, Jianjun." Liu Yan nodded with a smile, waved to Li Manjun, and went home.
As soon as they left, Li Lijun held her eldest sister's arm and said coquettishly, "Sister, I'm thirsty~"
Although Li Jianjun was embarrassed to act coquettishly like his second sister, he looked at Li Manjun expectantly.
"Want to drink soda?" Li Manjun asked funnyly.
The two of them nodded immediately, "Okay, okay!"
Li Manjun pointed to the street kiosk, and without her having to say anything, the two siblings opened the refrigerator lid themselves, selected three bottles of soda from inside, opened the bottle caps, inserted the straws, and handed one to Li Manjun.
"How much?" Li Manjun asked the boss.
"One dollar and five."
Li Manjun took out the money and handed it over. The three siblings each drank a bottle of soda and returned home happily.
Li Manjun warned: "Don't throw the bottles away. Leave them for me. I will take them back for recycling later."
A soda bottle can be recycled for 20 cents, which adds up to 60 cents, which can be enough to pay for Li Jianjun's breakfast for three days.
The two siblings obediently agreed. After drinking the soda, they went back to study in the evening and put the bottle in Li Manjun's usual backpack.
Early the next morning, when Li Manjun went out to buy breakfast, she met Uncle Qin and told her that it was settled that she had entered the school.
"I told the vice-principal, and he said it's okay as long as it doesn't disturb the students' study. You can go in and pick it up."
Li Manjun was overjoyed, "That's great, uncle, thank you. I'll treat you to breakfast today."
Li Manjun directly paid for the fried dough sticks and soy milk that Uncle Qin wanted to buy. Uncle Qin happily did not refuse. He felt that she was more mature and sensible than before.
Li Manjun complained in his heart that there was a thirty-year-old mature soul living in his body, and it was difficult not to think he was mature.
Li Manjun immediately told the Liu Yan siblings the good news.
"Then let's go directly to school today?" Liu Yan was thinking about the treasures in the garbage dump. It would be a sense of accomplishment to search for such a large garbage dump.
Li Manjun looked at Liu Cheng, and he had no objection. The three of them picked up their tools and went straight to the school garbage dump.
Uncle Qin was standing at the school gate and wandering around. When he saw the three people coming, he opened the door to let them in.
Liu Yan and her brother went to the garbage dump, but Li Manjun didn't go with them. She bought a whole strip of Huazi. After Uncle Qin sent all the students into the school and locked the iron gate, they went to see the vice principal together.
She felt unsure about relying on Uncle Qin as an intermediary to contact Li Manjun. She had to meet the vice-principal in person. Only after getting confirmation did she feel relieved.
The vice-principal put away the cigarette and said kindly that they could come in at any time in the future. To him, this was nothing more than a trivial matter.
"Now you can rest assured." Uncle Qin was happy for her.
Li Manjun looked at the admission approval slip written by the vice-principal in his hand, smiled and nodded.
When Uncle Qin returned to his post, Li Manjun took the approval slip to the garbage dump to find the Liu Yan siblings and share the good news with them.
After getting through it, the three of them can confidently come in to collect garbage.
The three of them looked at the small garbage dump in front of them, as if they had foreseen a bright future and were full of energy.
