Chapter 118 Moral Model
Just when Xu Youyou thought the system ignored her, the system's reply appeared in front of her again.
[Guess which one is more valuable, the newspaper or birdcage reward? ]
Xu Youyou:!!!
Xu Youyou understood the system's hint. She thought she had only lost a few million, but she didn't expect it to be hundreds of millions? Xu Youyou covered her chest, and seemed to hear the sound of someone cutting her heart with a blunt knife.
It hurts! It hurts so much!
"Boss, are you feeling unwell?" Xu Fang looked at Xu Youyou with gritted teeth on her face. She was more anxious than anyone else.
Xu Youyou held her heart and said, "It's okay, I just felt a pang of conscience all of a sudden."
Xu Fang didn't know how to answer for a moment. She didn't know whether to smile to show that she was amused by the boss's joke, or to continue to be worried and concerned about the boss's health.
Aunt Liu came back after making a phone call.
Xu Youyou asked: "Aunt Liu, what did your friend say?"
Aunt Liu frowned and said, "My friend didn't know that the newspapers were so valuable. Those old newspapers have been piled up at her place for many days, and she doesn't even remember where they came from."
Xu Youyou raised her eyebrows upon hearing this, and asked in disbelief, "Does your friend intend to return the newspaper to its original owner?"
Aunt Liu nodded.
Xu Youyou suddenly felt that the other person's figure was so brilliant that she looked like a clown. If she had such awareness, she would probably still be living in a small emo house in the urban village.
"You must persuade her. If she thinks this way, those businessmen will stop making money? Do they have to sell things at cost price? She didn't steal the newspaper. Whoever has it belongs to him. Don't be confused." Xu Youyou said.
Aunt Liu said helplessly: "I also advised her about this, but she said that according to this calculation, the newspaper and the teething stick will be given to Guaiguai. No matter how valuable it is, she can't take it back because it belongs to Guaiguai now!"
Xu Youyou: Huh? This person's logic is really invincible. Anyway, anyone can take the newspaper, she doesn't want it! Xu Youyou has found bargains so many times and has seen all kinds of sellers, some greedy, some shrewd, but this is the first time she has seen someone who exudes moral brilliance and has such high moral character that it makes others ashamed.
She couldn't help but become curious about Aunt Liu's friend and really wanted to meet this admirable lady.
"What do you know, Guaiguai? You should persuade your friend that money matters should not be calculated in this way. If you take the newspapers back and exchange them for money, you can improve your life. At least you won't have to work so hard collecting waste every day like you do now." Xu Youyou advised.
Aunt Liu shook her head and said, "Ms. Xu, I have tried my best to persuade her, but my friend is stubborn. Now that she has said so, there is no room for maneuver. She will never accept the newspaper. She will just be obedient."
Xu Youyou said helplessly: "If she really doesn't want to accept it, then just accept it."
Aunt Liu immediately shook her head like a rattle: "The things are for Guaiguai. How can I, a grown-up, snatch things from a puppy? What kind of nonsense is this! Miss Xu, please don't say that again!"
Xu Youyou didn't expect that everyone would refuse something worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Something even more unexpected happened to her.
A line of words suddenly appeared in front of Xu Youyou.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the task reward. Reward: a set of Yiheyuan A-type villa]
Xu Youyou:!!!
System Tucao: [The dog owner is useless, but the dog is useful. ]
Xu Youyou ignored the system's sarcasm and screamed in her heart: Dogs are man’s best friends!
She repeated her previous actions, opened her phone and started searching for the Yihe original. She had no idea where the house was.
Ten seconds later, Xu Youyou: !!!
She took another look at the house that the system rewarded her, Type A.
There are only two Type A units in the entire villa area, which are considered the top units in the building. The area is written as 2,500 square meters on the property title, but because of the free basement, the actual usable area is more than 3,600 square meters.
There is no room for it! Xu Youyou doesn't know how many parts she should divide herself into to fit in such a big house! The best single-family villa in HD area! Next to it is the Summer Palace!
Five hundred million! She looked at the pictures of the villa on her phone and almost drooled.
Xu Youyou also did not forget that she was able to get this villa thanks to Aunt Liu's friend, but given this person's character, she would never accept money directly.
Xu Youyou thought about how she was supporting so many people now, and she wouldn't need one or two high-paid workers around her. She suppressed her excitement and turned to ask Aunt Liu: "Aunt Liu, can you tell me more about your friend? How did you two meet? Why is one in Shanghai and the other in the capital? How many children does she have?"
Aunt Liu sighed and said, "Speaking of which, she is a native of the capital. When I was young, I was a model worker in the factory and was sent to the capital by the factory to participate in training. That's how I met her."
"I like puppies, and so does she, but she likes both cats and dogs, and she especially loves taking care of small animals. We lived in the same dormitory during the training, and the more we talked, the more we got along. Because we have similar interests, we have kept in touch all these years."
Xu Youyou sighed with emotion and said, "Maybe when you came to the capital for training that year, it was because God wanted you to meet her, so that you would have a friendship of several decades."
Aunt Liu agreed with this: "I didn't learn anything from the training. The factory closed down within two years of the training, and I was laid off."
Although Aunt Liu is a laid-off worker, she has not lived a bad life in recent years. After all, after buying out her years of service, she did not forget to pay social security, and her family conditions are not particularly bad.
Now that she is old, she receives a salary from Xu Youyou and an additional pension from the state. Her daughter is not married yet, so her burden is light and she can feel so relaxed.
"As for children, she doesn't have any. In fact, if she had children, it wouldn't be so difficult," said Aunt Liu.
Xu Youyou felt that there seemed to be some other courtesy in her words, so she took the initiative to ask, "Has your friend had a particularly hard time in recent years because he has no children?"
Aunt Liu sighed heavily, "She's not doing well, but it's not entirely because she doesn't have children. At the beginning, she was like me, the factory where she worked also closed down, but the money she got from buying out her seniority was squandered by her dead husband."
"Her husband borrowed money everywhere during those years. His debts should have been settled after his death, but she was a strong-willed person. Even if she had to eat coarse food, she gritted her teeth and paid off the IOUs one by one."
"She finally paid off the debt, and now she's old, with no pension, so she can only make a living as a cleaner and collecting waste. She has no children, so she keeps a yard full of stray cats and dogs, all of which need to be eaten, so her life is naturally tight."
Xu Youyou could imagine the pitiful look of the old lady guarding a room full of waste.
"Fortunately, she still has a house to live in." Xu Youyou said.
But Aunt Liu's face became even uglier, and she choked up as she said, "We're going to lose our house soon, and we're going to end up on the streets."
