"Second brother, it's not that I won't help you. My classmates and I are also very busy these days." Xu Xiaoling replied: "I made an appointment with my classmates to use this weekend to go to the streets to raise funds. We are going to donate money to the university."
Pandas raise funds for disaster relief.”
"Raise money for giant pandas?" Xu Erlong asked repeatedly.
"Yes, we are raising money for the giant pandas." Xiaoling frowned and said worriedly: "Now the bamboos are blooming all over the country, and many giant pandas have nothing to eat and are about to starve to death. Now we are preparing to donate money to the giant pandas."
It raises some funds to save these giant pandas."
Some things deep in Xu Erlong's memory were recalled.
During the period from 1983 to 1984, bamboos bloomed in large areas across the country. Pandas were short of food for a long time and many died one after another. Flags were even flown at half-mast in memory of the pandas' premature deaths.
After the report on the living environment of giant pandas, it attracted the attention of the whole country. From top to bottom, activities to rescue giant pandas began in full swing. People across the country actively donated money, hoping to contribute their own efforts to rescue giant pandas.
The bamboos are blooming, and Mimi is lying in her mother's arms counting the stars.
The stars, the stars are so beautiful, where is tomorrow’s breakfast...
This is a song specially created in that era to save the national treasure giant panda, and everyone is familiar with it.
Xu Erlong thought about these things deep in his memory.
And Xiaoling has already gone to find her piggy bank.
This is a piggy bank that Xiaoling trapped in a bamboo trap during the last garden outing.
The pocket money that Xu Erlong usually gave her, or her own royalties, were all stored in this piggy bank. They were usually extremely precious and were hidden in mysterious places so that no one would know about them.
Now, in order to donate money to the giant pandas, Xiaoling stuck her butt out and took out her piggy bank from under the bed.
As the piggy bank is opened, all the savings are exposed to everyone.
There were both ten-dollar bills and one-cent steel pennies. Xiaoling was there, cleaning out all her savings one by one.
She counted there for a long time and found that it was almost fifty yuan.
"Second brother, can you help me collect some more?" Xiaoling held her handful of bits and pieces of pocket money and came over to discuss with Xu Erlong.
"How much do you need to collect?" Xu Erlong asked her.
"Help me put together a little more, oh, make it a round number of 50 yuan." Xiaoling said.
"This..." Xu Erlong hesitated for a moment and teased him seriously: "You can also ask me to help you get it. You also know that there is no free lunch in this world, right?"
Xiaoling nodded: "Second brother, I understand. In exchange, if you help me collect the 50 yuan, I will help you write the copy. Is that okay?"
"Okay." Xu Erlong immediately made a deal with her.
This writing fee is necessary. How can you exploit someone just because the other person is your sister?
People rely on their brains to work, which is also very hard.
Xu Erlong kept his word and immediately helped Xiaoling exchange the money into fifty yuan.
Xiaoling planned to donate the fifty yuan.
For a child, this fifty yuan is really too much.
After all, most of the kids these days donate 20, 30 cents or something.
But Xu Erlong didn't stop her. Xiaoling could spend whatever she wanted with the money she earned.
Xu Erlong began to think about his own affairs.
This giant panda donates money to save national treasures. This is definitely his duty, and he should donate some.
How much to donate? Xu Erlong has not thought clearly yet.
At noon the next day, Xu Erlong stayed at home and did not go out. Xiaoling came over with her teacher.
"Second brother, this is my class teacher. She wants to see you for something." Xiaoling introduced.
Zhang Jinfang secretly thought, did Xiaoling get into trouble at school? All the teachers came to see her?
"Hello, Teacher Chen, please take a seat." Zhang Jinfang greeted her warmly.
Xu Erlong poured tea over.
"You don't have to be so polite. I'm just here to ask something. I'll leave after I've clarified it." Teacher Chen was very polite.
"you say."
"That's it. The school is organizing students to donate money for giant pandas. Xiaoling donated 50 yuan alone. This amount of money is too large. As her teacher, I want to confirm the situation." Teacher Chen explained.
Intention.
After all, Xiaoling is just a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old. She suddenly donated such a large amount of money, which is equivalent to a month's salary of an ordinary worker. As a teacher, she is worried, fearing that her children are eager to save pandas and steal the money without telling their parents.
I took my family's money and donated it.
So if you have children with you, ask an adult in person to ask clearly.
It can be said that teachers these days are very responsible, not only in teaching, but also in all aspects of daily life.
"We know this." Xu Erlong patted Xiaoling on the shoulder and supported her: "Xiaoling came back and talked about donating money. We all agree. It is our unshirkable responsibility to actively rescue giant pandas."
Teacher Chen smiled happily.
Xu Erlong added: "Besides, this money is Xiaoling's own pocket money. It is the royalties she earns from contributing articles to various newspapers and magazines. She can completely control the money herself. We will not interfere with her."
Teacher Chen nodded: "With such an open-minded family as yours and such support for children, it's no wonder Xiaoling performed so well. Okay, then I will register the 50 yuan donated by Xiaoling when I get back. I will apply with the school.
The whole school commends Xiaoling.”
After all, classmate Xiaoling donated so much by herself, and the sum of many classes and grades combined was not as much as she donated by herself.
It is necessary for the whole school to give Xiaoling an award and praise.
Teacher Chen stood up and said goodbye to Zhang Xinfang politely.
"Teacher Chen." Xu Erlong stopped her: "I would like to ask, where are these donations sent?"
Teacher Chen was stunned for a moment: "I don't know much about this. As the class teacher, we are only responsible for collecting the donations from students, registering everyone's names, and then handing the money to the school."
"Okay, I understand." Xu Erlong politely sent Teacher Chen off.
When he turned back, he went to find Principal Shi. He had to ask where the donations were sent to after the school had collected them.
"It is true that people all over the country are donating money to rescue giant pandas." Principal Shi admitted this: "Our county must not be left behind, and we are also actively making suggestions to rescue giant pandas. Every school is raising donations.
.This money will be handed over to the county by our Education Committee and donated in the name of the county."
After Principal Shi explained the matter, he looked at Xu Erlong: "Aren't you reviewing at home? Why do you suddenly come to ask about this?"
Xu Erlong touched his nose: "Everyone is actively donating money, how can I stay out of it? I will definitely donate too."
