Chapter 9 Emptying the Private Pockets (2/2)



After Ruan Yunxi went on a shopping spree and spent five thousand yuan on a lot of daily necessities, rice, flour, oil, and some fabrics, she returned home and saw Ning Zhenzhen squatting at the door.

Seeing her was like seeing a savior: "Yunxi, where have you been? Do you know that your brother Minghua has been arrested?"

Ruan Yunxi: "?"

mine?

You're still trying to fool me?

Seeing Ning Zhenzhen so engrossed in her role, Ruan Yunxi feigned shock: "How could Minghua have been arrested?"

“When they went to the dock to transport supplies, they were reported and arrested on the spot. My aunt and I went to see them, but they wouldn’t let us. I remember you have a relative who works in the Public Security Bureau. Could you please let us see them?”

Ruan Yunxi pretended to be hesitant: "It's possible, but as you know, he took a huge risk by asking us to meet him."

Ning Zhenzhen understood her meaning and used moral blackmail: "That's Brother Minghua, can you really bear to watch him suffer in there?"

Ruan Yunxi shook her head: "I can't bear to part with it. All the valuables in my house have been transported to the dock, and I don't have anything to give away now. Why don't you help me out a little?"

Ning Zhenzhen only wants to be stingy.

Ruan Yunxi used moral blackmail, saying, "You're the one who likes your cousin Minghua the most, but now that he's been arrested, you're not even willing to spend some money to smooth things over. It seems that your relationship as cousins ​​is nothing special."

Ning Zhenzhen's face flushed red and then paled as she listened to him. She knew that Ruan Yunxi had already been drained dry by her and Lu Minghua. If Ruan Yunxi had any money of her own, given her love-struck nature, how could she possibly ask her to pay for anything?

However, she's willing to pay, but she won't do it for nothing.

Ning Zhenzhen said, "I can lend it to you, but you have to pay me back when you have it later."

Ruan Yunxi, who had no intention of paying it back, readily agreed: "Okay!"

"I need about five or six hundred, lend it to me first." Ruan Yunxi made an outrageous demand.

Ning Zhenzhen really did have 500 yuan on her. It was in the novel that she complained that she only found out she had 600 yuan left when she went to Hong Kong. She couldn't spend it in Hong Kong, so she could only leave it there.

And so, Ruan Yunxi kindly helped her spend the money.

Ning Zhenzhen thought that she had stocked up on most of what she needed to. Anyway, she was keeping the six hundred dollars for emergencies. Once she got to Hong Kong, she could just ask Ruan Yunxi to return the six hundred Hong Kong dollars to her.

Thinking of this, Ning Zhenzhen readily took out six hundred and gave it to Ruan Yunxi.

Ruan Yunxi took the money and said, "Go back and wait for news. I'll call you back after I've found someone to pull some strings."

Ning Zhenzhen believed it to be true, completely unaware that Ruan Yunxi had no intention of using connections. The 600 yuan was immediately spent by Ruan Yunxi after Ning Zhenzhen left, and she used it all to stockpile supplies for emergencies.

It's foolish not to stock up if you have the space.

Ning Zhenzhen waited and waited, but instead of receiving a call from Ruan Yunxi, she received a notice from the educated youth office to go to the countryside.

She was stunned. Looking at her name and the place she was to be sent to in the countryside, she couldn't believe it: "I... I didn't sign up."

"You didn't register, so how come your name is on the list?" The educated youth office wouldn't let her get away with it: "You've already received the rural subsidy, and you still say you didn't register? Don't even think about getting another rural subsidy. With this roster, you'll have to go to the countryside whether you want to or not!"

Ning Zhenzhen's face was ugly. Watching the arrogant staff member from the educated youth office leave, she stomped her foot in anger: "Which bastard signed me up?"

That's bad enough, but they also took her rural allowance of over 200 yuan. That's outrageous!

Ning Zhenzhen was so angry she wanted to curse his ancestors for eighteen generations!

fortunately!

Fortunately, the ship departs tonight, and the train to the countryside is tomorrow morning. By the time the people in charge of sending the educated youth to the countryside find out that she didn't get on the train, she will probably have already arrived in the port city.

When Lu's mother saw the notice for sending her son to the countryside delivered to her home, she was stunned: "Which heartless bastard signed my son up for the rural assignment?"
