Chapter 11: Meet the Father-in-law?
"Nothing?" Lian Yi looked away.
It was normal for him to come to Hangzhou with his parents during the National Day holiday, but it was very abnormal to meet Lin Xiao here.
She really couldn't guess what the background of the story was about the foreign woman kissing Lin Xiao and giving him money.
Ever since his failed confession, Lin Xiao really seemed like a completely different person, and she didn't recognize him at all.
While he was in a daze, Lin Xiao vaguely felt a pair of hands reaching into his pocket.
There is a thief.
There was no WeChat or Alipay in those days, so we had to carry money with us. The public security was not that good. It was almost dark, and there were many thieves.
But you want to steal my money? You are dreaming, my money is all on the bottom of my shoes.
It’s getting dark, and I’m still far from the money I wanted to earn.
How to make another quick buck?
Suddenly, Lin Xiao came up with a plan.
Suddenly, Lin Xiao grabbed the thief's wrist. When the thief struggled, his face turned cold and he pretended to pull out a knife, but in fact he didn't have a knife because that would change the nature of the situation.
He is just a simple thief.
Lin Xiao said quickly: "Brother, don't steal from me, I don't have any money. Do you see the handsome middle-aged man next to the pretty girl? He is wearing Ralph Lauren, an American brand. He must have money in the bag under his armpit. He is holding ice cream in both hands, go and steal from him."
The thief looked where Lin Xiao pointed and immediately realized that this was a fat sheep.
"Thanks, brother, that's very nice." The thief whispered, then he sneaked to Lian Zheng's side.
Then, with extremely skillful techniques, he unzipped Lian Zheng's armpit bag and easily stole the wallet inside.
After stealing, he looked at Lin Xiao with gratitude, then quickly fled in the direction of Lin Xiao, trying to hide in the crowd.
Lin Xiao suddenly stretched out his foot.
"Ah..." The thief screamed and fell to the ground with confusion in his eyes.
Little brother, why do you do this to me?
Then Lin Xiao pounced on him fiercely, pinned the thief under him and said, "Catch the thief, catch the thief."
At this time, Lian Zheng realized that his bag had been torn open. He quickly searched inside his purse and found that his wallet was missing.
Soon, several people came forward and pinned the thief to the ground.
Lin Xiao snatched the wallet from the thief, wiped it with his clothes, and blew away the non-existent dust on it.
Then, he came to Lian Zheng and said politely, "Uncle, this is your wallet. Is there anything missing from it?"
Lian Zheng took the wallet and opened it. He ignored the money inside and quickly looked for the three ID cards inside. When he found that they were all there, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, thank you, little classmate." said the delicate and beautiful middle-aged woman next to her. She was Lian Yi's mother, Lin Xiao's former mother-in-law.
Lian Zheng looked towards Lin Xiao and said, "Thank you, classmate Lin Xiao. Nice to meet you again."
Lin Xiao was stunned. You know me? When did you see me? Hearing the name Lin Xiao, Lian Yi's mother's face suddenly changed and turned cold.
You confessed your love to my precious daughter in public? A poor country boy? Who gave you the courage? Who gave you the guts?
Lin Xiao asked: "Uncle Lian, is there any less money in your wallet?"
Lian Zheng said: "No less."
Lin Xiao said: "Money is not important, but the ID card is important. Be careful not to lose it."
As he spoke, Lin Xiao covered his arm and grimaced, looking as if it was in pain. At least his clothes there were torn and his skin was a little abraded as well.
"Are you injured? Is it serious?" Lian Zheng said, "It's all thanks to you just now. You helped us so much. We must thank you very much."
Lin Xiao said: "This is what I should do."
Lian Zhengdao: "No, I must thank you. What do you want?"
Lin Xiao said: "In that case, there is one thing I would like to ask Uncle Lian for help."
Lian Zhengdao: "If you have any request, just tell me."
The woman next to him suddenly turned cold, fearing that Lin Xiao would make some impolite requests, such as agreeing to let him pursue Lian Yi.
Lian Yi also looked nervous and said to Lin Xiao: "Don't talk nonsense in front of my parents."
She was really afraid that Lin Xiao would confess his feelings to her in front of her parents, which would embarrass her to death.
Lin Xiao said in the purest voice: "Uncle, can you lend me 2,500 yuan?"
When these words were spoken, Lian Yi was stunned, and her mother was also stunned.
Everyone, including Lian Zheng, was stunned.
Everyone thought that after Lin Xiao had helped so much, he would take the opportunity to express his affection to Lian Yi.
I even thought of the dialogue, something like "I don't dare to ask my uncle and aunt to allow me to pursue Lian Yi, but at least give me a chance to prove myself."
After all, this is something a high school student would say.
Lian Zheng had already thought of how to politely refuse, but this guy did this? Lian Yi was immediately indignant. Lin Xiao, what do you mean? You are not satisfied with borrowing 800 yuan from me, and you want to borrow money from my dad?
Lian Zheng found it interesting and did not respond directly. Instead, he looked at Lin Xiao with interest.
ah?!
This script is wrong. Shouldn't you just take out more than 2,000 yuan and put it in my hand, then say that you don't have to pay it back, and leave without looking back? So, Lin Xiao quickly added: "Don't worry, I promise not to harass Lian Yi in the future."
Is it so humble to be reborn?
Others would throw millions of dollars at a pretty boy and tell him to take the money and leave my daughter. But you won’t even give me more than 2,000 yuan?
"Two thousand five, right? OK." Lian Zheng smiled and counted out twenty-five bills from his wallet and gave them to Lin Xiao. He said, "Where do you live? Do you want me to take you home?"
"No, no, thank you Uncle Lian." Lin Xiao took the money and quickly turned around and left.
After Lin Xiao left, Lianyi's mother said, "He doesn't look like a high school student at all. He's just a scoundrel. Lianyi, stay away from him in the future. If he dares to harass you again, tell me immediately and I will call your principal directly."
Lian Zheng asked, "Is Lin Xiao good at studying?"
Lian Yi said: "Not good, very bad."
Lian Zheng asked again: "Is it a partiality? What about the connotation of the text?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Lian Yi said: "The language is also poor, the writing is superficial, and it's just whining."
Lian Zheng said: "That's a pity, he is quite smart. But without the support of culture, it would be difficult for him to achieve anything with just intelligence, and he can only float in the world."
………………
Thanks to Secretary Lian's sponsorship, Lin Xiao was able to earn enough money for the time being and no longer needed to go to West Lake to sell his smiles.
I'm sorry to meet you in this way, my former father-in-law.
The next day, Lin Xiao went to Yigo Digital Plaza and picked out a Dell laptop, which was in relatively new condition and had the mainstream configuration of last year. He spent a total of four thousand six hundred yuan.
Finally I have a computer.
Finally I can do big things and make big money!!
After buying the computer, there are more than 2,000 yuan left, which will be used for living expenses and rent.
Hangzhou is a nice city, but it’s not suitable for a poor guy with only 2,000 yuan.
Lin Xiao carried his computer directly to Hangzhou Station and bought a ticket back to Linshan No. 1 Middle School.
On the way, I passed the pink street again and met the young lady again.
New scars appeared on her face and legs. She was sitting at the door crying silently. When she saw Lin Xiao, she instinctively wanted to avoid him.
Lin Xiao stepped forward and handed over a napkin.
"You want to go home, where is your home?" asked the young lady.
Lin Xiao said: "Yes, it's near the mountain."
The young lady said, "I want to go home too, but unfortunately I can't."
After hesitating, Lin Xiao wrote down his QQ number and said, "If you don't want to do this job in the future, you can try to contact me. I may be able to give you a good job."
Then, Lin Xiao continued on his way.
Behind the pink street, there is actually a library. Looking at the banner outside, it seems that a professor from the School of Literature of Aurora University is giving a lecture.
Bai Wanqing seems to be one of the main judges of the New Concept Writing Competition?
There were still two hours before the train departed, so Lin Xiao went in and listened for a while.
Professor Bai was talking about One Hundred Years of Solitude by Marquez.
"The lecture is almost over. Who would like to come up and write a few words or a poem to explain loneliness?"
"Most of you are masters and doctoral students from Zhejiang University's College of Arts. Just now you were judging my level. Now let me see your level as well."
"This little student with a bag on his back and luggage in his hands, would you like to come up?"
Lin Xiao was stunned, but still walked up.
"Are you an undergraduate student at the School of Literature of Zhejiang University?" Professor Bai asked.
Lin Xiao said: "I am Lin Xiao, a senior student at Linshan No. 1 Middle School."
"Oh, you're just a high school student? Do you want to go down or write a few sentences?" Professor Bai said.
Lin Xiao said: "I still have to catch a train! Is it about loneliness?"
Professor Bai said, "That's right."
Lin Xiao put down his luggage, thought for two minutes, then picked up the chalk and wrote a few lines on the blackboard.
I don’t want to meet people, because they will leave eventually. Loneliness makes you think too much, and thinking too much makes you lonely.
I would rather disappoint the sun than miss the stars. It is better to be a universe by ourselves than to be human beings to each other.
