"Oh, my Cui'er, why are you crying? Do you want some candy? Don't cry, don't cry! Mom will take you to buy some candy!"
Old Mrs. Sun took out a piece of worn but clean cotton cloth from her pocket and carefully helped Li Jinfeng wipe her tears.
Li Jinfeng felt even worse.
"Grandma, I'm grown up now and don't want to eat candy anymore!" said Li Jinfeng.
"Don't want candy? Then Cui'er, whatever you want to eat, mom will buy it for you! Let me tell you, mom has saved up a lot of money for you! Eat whatever you want!"
The old lady completely ignored Sun Laogen, took Li Jinfeng's hand, and walked to the only broken wardrobe in her room.
From his neck, he took out a key.
Unlocking the cupboard, she pulled out a clay jar.
The old lady hadn't eaten for about a day and a night, and even holding a jar, her hands felt weak and she almost fell. Fortunately, Li Jinfeng helped her in time.
"Grandma, let's eat first. After dinner, I'll watch whatever you want me to watch!" said Li Jinfeng.
"No, first look at the money mom saved for you!" Old Mrs. Sun said mysteriously.
Li Jinfeng couldn't persuade her and nodded, "Okay! Then let's see how many good things Grandma has saved!"
The old lady held the pottery jar and, with the help of Li Jinfeng, put the things on the kang.
She took out a cloth bag from inside, and after unwrapping the layers of cloth, she found a thick stack of savings that Old Lady Sun had accumulated over the years.
They are all one-cent and two-cent notes.
Not even a penny was found.
Sun Laogen, who was standing by, saw the money in the jar, his eyes became hot and he could no longer hold back his tears.
After Cui'er left, he always saw his mother hiding money. At that time, he didn't take it seriously. Unexpectedly, she had saved so much money without realizing it.
"Count, Cui'er, you count!" Old Mrs. Sun gestured to Li Jinfeng to count.
Li Jinfeng really started counting the money.
But the number is too large, over twenty years, there are several thousand of them.
Li Jinfeng could count for hours but still not finish.
After counting a few, she stopped and took the bowl from Sun Laogen.
"Grandma, I'll count and you drink the porridge! How about we compete to see who's faster?" Li Jinfeng said.
"Okay, Cui'er, count quickly. Once you're done, they're all yours!" Old Mrs. Sun took the bowl herself and began to drink the porridge spoonful by spoonful.
When Sun Laogen saw that his mother had finally eaten, he felt relieved.
Li Jinfeng spent more than two hours just counting the money.
I almost broke my hands from counting, but it was all worth it.
The old lady kept laughing while she counted the money.
Finally, Li Jinfeng counted out seventy-two yuan and thirty-five cents.
There may be some discrepancies, but the errors will not be too big.
"Grandma, it's seventy-two dollars and thirty-five cents!" said Li Jinfeng.
"That's so much money, Cui'er. Take it and use it. Buy whatever you want. Mom will save more for you in the future!" Old Mrs. Sun said with a smile.
The old lady was a stubborn person. Li Jinfeng knew it was useless to refuse, so she took the money that Old Lady Sun handed to her and said, "Thank you, Grandma!"
Then he took out ten big unity notes from his pocket and said, "Grandma, I also saved some money for you, but it's not much. Take it and buy what you want!"
Sun Laogen was watching from the side. When he saw the ten great unity figures, he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"Mom, no, I have your brother to support me! But you, that guy always beats you, doesn't it hurt?"
The old lady seemed to have thought of something and began to cry.
"Grandma, I divorced that man! I found a new partner."
