After Niu Dali left, Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe also went out, and Chen Guihua was the only one left in the yard.
Since everyone was out doing things, she had to do her own thing.
She randomly picked up a piece of dry firewood from the pile of firewood next to the stove and walked towards the backyard.
She was going to get back the money that belonged to her.
If she remembered correctly, Niu Dali gave the money he had cheated from her to Liu Damei next door. Liu Damei originally wanted to deposit the money into her passbook after having an abortion, so she buried the money in Liu Damei's flower pot.
In her previous life, she accidentally saw Liu Damei taking out change from the flowerpot. She thought it was Liu Damei's own money and kindly advised her to move it to another place to avoid being discovered. Unexpectedly, it was not until a few years later that she found out that the money was all hers.
This is really too much!
Chen Guihua thought as she walked to Liu Damei's backyard.
Liu Damei is still lying in the town clinic today, and Niu Dali also went to the town clinic to see her, so Chen Guihua is safe.
At that time, there were no big locks in the rural courtyards, just ordinary wooden gates that could be entered with a light push.
Based on her memories from her previous life, Chen Guihua found the inconspicuous flowerpot in the corner.
There is green aloe vera planted in the flowerpot.
The green aloe vera is pressed on Shen Guihua's money, isn't this just to make Shen Guihua's head green?
She really wanted to smash the broken aloe vera plant, but she couldn't do it now. Besides getting her money back, she also had to do something with the pot.
Chen Guihua moved quickly. She used some dry firewood to loosen the soil in the aloe vera pot, and then took out a purse wrapped in several layers of green canvas.
There were notes of a few cents, a few dimes, and a few yuan in it, and the total amount was more than fifty yuan.
This couple is quite powerful. They actually took so much of her money.
She put the money in her trouser pocket and put some things in the hole before returning the soil in the flowerpot to its original state.
After doing all this, Chen Guihua returned to her yard and threw the dry firewood used for digging the soil into the stove.
Well, now that I have money, I can go to town and buy some things.
Chen Guihua carried her yellowed cloth bag and walked towards the town.
About half an hour later, she arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative in the town.
She walked into the supply and marketing cooperative and went straight to the stationery counter.
When the staff saw Shen Guihua approaching, they stepped forward and asked, "Auntie, what do you want to buy?"
After taking a look at the things in the glass cabinet, Shen Guihua said, "Give me two Hero brand pens."
This Hero brand pen is not cheap, one pen costs one dollar and fifty cents. And Chen Guihua's clothes are still patched, how can she afford such an expensive pen? Could it be that she is just looking for something new?
After the staff member looked at Shen Guihua, he said calmly, "Auntie, this Hero brand pen is very expensive, it costs one dollar and fifty cents. Why don't you look at other brands?"
Chen Guihua waved her hand and smiled, "It's okay. I bought it for my child, so I have to buy good ones."
Seeing that she had kindly reminded him just now, but Shen Guihua still insisted on looking, the staff member was a little unhappy and continued, "Auntie, we have a rule here. If the items in this counter are damaged and affect the resale, you must buy them. Do you understand?"
When Chen Guihua heard this, she understood that this was a sign of contempt for her, as she was an old woman from the countryside and had no money to buy her pen.
Thinking of this, Shen Guihua took out the money from her trouser pocket, counted it, and put three dollars directly on the counter.
"Can you please get my pen out now?"
As soon as the staff saw Chen Guihua put the money on the table, smiles instantly appeared on their faces.
"Wait a minute, I'll get it for you right away! You're the most generous mother I've ever met. You bought two such expensive pens at once, showing no partiality at all. Your two children are so lucky to have such a good mother like you, hehe..."
Money makes the world go round, and this saying never goes out of style no matter what era it is!
The staff member opened the glass case, put his hand in, and hesitated again, "Auntie, what color do you and I want?"
Chen Guihua thought for a moment and said, "A red one for my daughter and a black one for my son."
"Having both a son and a daughter makes for a perfect couple, haha..." The staff member said as he took out a pen, "But I'm not saying anything bad about you. Daughters are going to get married soon. They're just money-losing goods. There's no need for you to be so nice to them!"
Hearing the staff's words, Shen Guihua rolled her eyes at the staff unhappily and said, "Sister, you are also a woman, how can you say such things?"
When the staff heard what Shen Guihua said, they immediately blushed, "Auntie..."
"I'm telling you today that parents shouldn't treat their children differently based on whether they are boys or girls.
As long as a child is filial to his parents, he should be loved even if he is an adopted child.
If some blood-related sons are unable to be filial to their parents, they might as well be thrown into the wolf's den to feed the wolves!
The two children I'm going to give the pen to this time are an adopted son and my biological daughter!"
When she said the last sentence, Shen Guihua even emphasized the tone on purpose.
When the staff heard what Chen Guihua said, they felt warm in their hearts, but also a little sad. It would be great if her mother could treat her like this!
She is also a filial child at home, but her mother only has eyes for her younger brother and rarely cares about her.
"Auntie, you are so kind. Your adopted son and daughter must have done a lot of good deeds in their previous lives to have such a good mother like you."
When the staff member said this, he was serious, his tone was very sincere, and there was also a bit of envy.
Shen Guihua felt the change in the staff and a smile appeared on her lips.
"Actually, I'm lucky to have met two such wonderful children," Chen Guihua urged. "By the way, could you please take out the pen and let me try it?"
The staff then remembered the important matter.
She took out two pens from the counter and brought a piece of white paper for Shen Guihua to try.
Chen Guihua held the pen and made a simple sketch on the white paper. It didn't get stuck, so it was a good pen.
"I want both of these," Chen Guihua said, glancing at the ink in the glass cabinet behind the staff member. "Give me two bottles of that Hero Ink, too."
"Okay, Auntie, I'll get it for you right away."
This time, the staff didn't say much, but simply took out two bottles of ink and placed them next to Shen Guihua.
After giving the money to the staff, Chen Guihua put the pen and ink in her cloth bag.
This trip cost me five dollars, and I have more than 40 dollars left. I can go to the credit union to open a new passbook and deposit the money that Niu Dali cheated me of.
After Chen Guihua packed her cloth bag, she walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative and headed towards the credit union.
The credit union is not far away, only about ten minutes away.
