Chapter 21 I haven't been so happy today for a long time
Being so provoked by the little girl, Shouhou was furious and reached out to get the money. As soon as he made contact with Lingbao's hand, he felt an electric shock again. This time he couldn't take his hand back and his whole body twitched.
His eyes widened in horror, and he wanted to ask for help, but his body was numb and numb, and he couldn't open his mouth at all, until his vision went black and he fainted from the electric shock.
The others were too shocked and stood there blankly, not understanding what happened, "Slim, Slim Monkey... what's wrong with him? He suddenly convulsed so badly, is he suffering from some disease?"
Zhuzi and Curly swallowed nervously, "Isn't it epilepsy?"
Gou Mazi recovered from his shock and said to the two people next to him: "Don't stand there in a daze, let's carry him to the health center quickly?"
"I won't carry you on my back."
After Zhu Zhu finished speaking, Curly Hair subconsciously took a step back, "I won't carry it either. It's not an infectious disease."
"Isn't it epilepsy?"
"It could also be other diseases. It's too scary."
Curly wanted to leave here quickly, rushed to Lingbao, and yelled at her fiercely: "Smelly girl, give me two dollars! Hurry up! Or I'll beat you!"
"Hey! Here you go!" The little baby obediently opened his palms.
Curly Hair went to get the money without thinking.
Like the thin monkey, he started twitching as soon as he came into contact with the spirit treasure, then his eyes turned white and he fell to the ground.
Only then did everyone realize that Slender Monkey was not sick, but that the problem was Lingbao.
"You, you... what did you do to them?" Zhu Zhu panicked.
Lingbao had a sweet smile on his lips and walked towards him step by step with his short legs, "Do you want any money? Here you go, two yuan in total."
"Go away! Stay away from me..."
Lingbao sounded puzzled, "Don't you want money?"
Zhuzi looked at her as if she were a ghost, and backed away again and again until he was in the corner. There was no way to retreat. He screamed "Ah" and raised his fist to hit Lingbao in the face, but his hand was hit by Lingbao.
He grabbed him and threw him over his shoulder.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, the scene would be unimaginable.
A three-year-old girl actually threw a sixteen-year-old man who was as strong as a pillar to the ground, and her movements were so smooth and done in one go.
Zhuzi, who fell to the ground on his back, was in severe pain all over his body. He didn't even have the strength to struggle. He opened his mouth wide, rolled his eyes, and fell unconscious.
"Now," Lingbao looked at Gou Mazi, "you are the only one left."
"Money, I'll pay you back," Gou Mazi's legs became weak and he knelt on the ground, "All the money I just snatched from your brother is here, I'll pay it all back to you..."
Lingbao picked up the money on the ground and handed it to her second brother. She asked in a sweet voice: "Second brother, count the money. Is there any less money?"
"Ah?" Erhuazi was stunned for a while, "Oh..."
He took the money and counted it twice, "No less, eleven dollars and sixty-three cents."
As if something suddenly occurred to him, he hurriedly put on the coat that had been taken off before, walked to the fainted Skinny Monkey, and took back the brown sugar ticket from his pocket.
"Please let me go?" Gou Mazi begged.
Then he said a bunch of words, telling Lingbao and her second brother that his real name was Zhang Guoqing, and "Gou Mazi" was the nickname he got after jumping in line.
"Jumping in line?" Erhuazi looked at him in surprise, "Are you an educated youth?"
"Yes," Gou Mazi nodded, "My family is in Hening City, and I came to the town's production brigade in March. Shouhou and the others went to the countryside last year, a year earlier than me."
Erhuazi didn't believe it and said: "Educated youths are all highly educated. Can they commit robbery? Impossible! Don't deceive me!"
"I'm not lying to you, and I don't want to steal money, but I'm really hungry. I've been hungry for three days. I've been relying on drinking water to satisfy my hunger for the past three days, and I'm about to starve to death."
After crying, he raised his arm to wipe away his tears, took out five food stamps hidden in his inner clothes, held them high and handed them to Erhuazi, "My mother gave them to me before I went to the countryside. I took them
Here you go, please let me go."
Erhuazi took the food stamps and said in surprise: "Ah! This is a national food stamp? This is the first time I have seen it."
"Second brother, are these food stamps special?"
"Yes, this kind of food stamps can be exchanged for food all over the country, unlike ordinary local food stamps, which can only be used in this city and not in other cities."
The little baby's big eyes were bright, "Then can we exchange it for flour?"
"Flour? Let me take a look." Erhuazi only went to the third grade of elementary school and knew some words, but not much. "It seems to be flour stamps..."
Gou Mazi was still kneeling on the ground and said: "These five are all white-faced tickets, four are for five jins, and one is for three jins."
When Erhuazi heard this, he laughed out loud with joy, "Oh! That's great! I was worried that I couldn't buy white noodles."
"Do you have a food shopping book?" Gou Mazi asked.
"Ah? What?" Erhuazi didn't understand, "What book are you talking about?"
"This is a food purchase book." Gou Mazi took out his educated youth food purchase certificate, "Without this book, how are you going to buy flour?"
Farmers don’t have food stamps, so naturally they can’t have food purchase books.
Erhuazi knew nothing about these things. He tried to recall it for a while and vaguely remembered that his elder brother seemed to have said that in order to buy rice, he spent money to find someone to borrow a grain book?
"Can you lend me this book?" Erhuazi said, "I will buy you ten kilograms of white flour later, and the food stamps will be counted as part of what you bought."
Unexpectedly, he was willing to share ten pounds of flour with him. Gou Mazi looked in disbelief, "I robbed you of your money, and you still share my food?"
"Hey, actually, you kids are quite pitiful. When you are in your teens, you have to leave your hometown and go to a remote place like ours to learn from us farmers. You don't have enough to eat, and you don't have parents to take care of you..."
After Erhuazi sighed, he pointed at Shouhou and the others and continued: "They are like bandits. I don't feel sorry for them. Compared with them, you still have some conscience and don't have the money to steal the spiritual treasure, so I will give it to you."
A chance to make things right.”
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, brother, thank you..." Gou Mazi just said a few words, and tears started to flow down.
He burst into tears and cried for a while before he choked and said: "I, I promise to correct myself. I will never do bad things again in the future."
Xiao Lingbao's voice is soft and cute, "You are a good boy if you know your mistakes and can correct them."
"Haha, yes, Lingbao is right!" Erhuazi laughed.
After that, he sent Shouhou and others to the police station, and then took Goumazi's food stamps and food purchase certificate to the food store to buy 23 kilograms of flour.
After giving ten kilograms to Gou Mazi, he carried thirteen kilograms of white flour in one hand and held Lingbao in the other. He said happily: "Lingbao, my second brother will buy you some candies."
Lingbao raised her little head and saw her second brother raising the corners of his mouth and smiling happily, and curiously asked: "Why is the second brother so happy?"
"Haha, I don't know what's going on, I'm in a really good mood!"
Is it because I was lucky and was not arrested by the police? Or is it because the money was not taken away? Or is it because I successfully bought flour? It may also be because I sent the annoying guy to the police station and was thanked by the young educated youth with gratitude.
"Thanks".
So many things happened in just one day, which made him deeply touched.
Since he got married and had a child, he has been busy all day long. In order to prevent his son from starving and suffering, he helped his wife calculate the money and food at home. He often felt exhausted both physically and mentally.
To be honest, he hasn't been so happy today for a long time.
