Chapter 498 Qiu Xiaoying's Money is Lost
The next day, Chen Xiumei delivered steamed buns and steamed buns at six in the morning.
"You steam it yourself. It tastes better when steamed now. I'm going to town first."
Looking at the white and tender buns and steamed buns, Xu Zijin immediately took them: "Well, then you be careful."
Chen Xiumei waved her hand and said, "It's okay. There are people everywhere in the fields right now, and it's close to town."
"I'm leaving."
"Well, I wish you a prosperous opening and a lot of money."
"Hahaha~~~ With your good words, I will definitely get rich!"
Chen Xiumei left with a big laugh, to go and build her own world. Xu Zijin quickly took the buns and prepared to go in.
"Teacher, my sister is crying."
Before I even entered the door, Qiu Xiaoli came running over.
Xu Zijin heard: "Xiao Li, what happened to your sister?"
Qiu Xiaoli looked at Xu Zijin with tears in her eyes: "Teacher, the money you gave to my sister is gone."
The little girl is not young anymore, she always needs some pocket money.
Every month, Xu Zijin would give Qiu Xiaoying five dollars and ask her to keep it for emergency use.
Including the money given during the Chinese New Year, the little girl should have more than thirty yuan in her hands.
No wonder she was crying, she lost so much money.
Needless to say, everyone knows who took the money, and the mice in the house don't know how to spend money.
Qiu Xiaoying is a child with a very calm personality. She never keeps her money in her hands for fear of losing it.
If you don't let it go, keep it at home.
Originally, she said she wanted to leave it with Xu Zijin, but Xu Zijin was always out, so she asked the little girl to hide it at home by herself.
But unexpectedly, I still couldn't defend it.
"Go, call my sister."
"good."
Soon, Qiu Xiaoying came over. Her eyes were red and it was obvious that she had just cried.
The little girl stammered, "Teacher, I'm sorry, I'm so useless. I can't even hide a little money."
"puff"
Xu Zijin was happy. She touched Qiu Xiaoying's head and said, "Silly girl, no matter how hard you try, you can't guard against a thief in your own home. Don't you know that?"
"Well, isn't it just a few dozen dollars?"
"It's gone, so it's gone. Just consider it a lesson learned."
"From now on, I will give you two sisters three dollars each every month. You have to spend it all every month. Do you understand?"
That's so much money.
Qiu Xiaoying stared at Xu Zijin blankly, then thought about her stepmother, feeling mixed emotions.
"Teacher, let's not take the money. We have nowhere to use it."
"Otherwise, it will benefit others."
This child...
Xu Zijin thought about it, pulled the sisters into the house, walked to the chest of drawers in the corner, and pointed to the first drawer.
"Xiaoying, you will be in charge of this drawer from now on."
"I will put all the food and daily necessities in it. What is put in it are your two sisters' things."
"In the future, if you want to eat or use something, just come and get it yourself."
"I'll buy you a small lock to lock it up later, and you can put the key in your schoolbag."
"My brothers are short, and their things are in the drawers below. Did you remember that?"
"Yeah, yeah, I remember that."
Tears kept falling down, Qiu Xiaoying clenched her fists, nodded and wiped her tears with her sleeves.
These tears made Xu Zijin sad and his nose felt sore.
She hugged Qiu Xiaoying and kissed her: "Okay, okay, isn't it just a little bit of food?"
"If the teacher can earn it, you can earn it in the future too."
"Stop crying, go get your schoolbag, we're having big meat buns this morning!"
The two sisters wiped their tears and ran away.
Lu Yulan also stood up: "Sister-in-law, is Xiaoying's money lost?"
Xu Zijin nodded: "Well, with such a biological father and such a vicious stepmother, the child is really suffering!"
yes.
Lu Yulan thought that not having a mother was pitiful enough, but the two sisters also had such an uncaring father.
"Xiaoying is such a sensible child. It makes people feel distressed just by looking at her."
Xu Zijin's nose was a little blocked.
She took a deep breath and nodded. "Yes, I just couldn't bear it, so I took care of the two sisters."
"I can't bear to ignore such an obedient child."
"What are you doing up so early? It's still early."
Lu Yulan smiled and said, "I feel better and better. My legs don't hurt anymore. I want to go out for a walk."
My sister-in-law was afraid that there would be too many people around and she would feel embarrassed to go out.
Xu Zijin nodded: "Then go ahead. It's a bit cold outside now, so put on more clothes."
"good."
After Lu Yulan entered the house, she changed into a thick cotton coat and went out.
When Lu Hanzhou came back for breakfast, he found out that Qiu Xiaoying's money was missing from his home.
He frowned and said, "I'll find a chance to talk to Qiu Pingan."
"What are you talking about?"
Xu Zijin looked disdainful: "He's a heartless person. He won't get better no matter how much you talk to him."
What can we say about Qiu Pingan?
Lu Hanzhou took a deep breath and said, "This guy favors boys over girls. He is quite serious about his work, but men are never so attentive to family matters."
"I'll talk to him, and the two children will feel better."
All right.
For the sake of Qiu Xiaoying and her sister, Xu Zijin agreed.
On the 28th, the two little ones’ birthdays arrived.
At this time last year, the three little ones didn't recognize him at all, and Xu Zijin didn't know their birthdays, so he naturally couldn't celebrate them.
Now, the three little ones are like his own children. Whenever Xu Zijin thinks of them, he always feels warm in his heart.
Early in the morning, she went to the service center and bought two pounds of ribs and a chicken.
Prepare to make some garlic fried pork ribs and a pot of chicken soup longevity noodles.
At noon, Xu Zijin asked Lu Hanzhou to bring all three children back.
After lunch, the couple took the three brothers out, carrying the offerings.
"Hey, where are you going?"
As soon as I turned onto the main road leading to the staff quarters, I met Qiu Aihong.
Liu Zilin said quickly: "Auntie, let's go burn incense for my mother. Today is my brother's and my birthday."
"Mother Xu said that it is the child's birthday and the mother's difficult day, so we should go and thank her."
Hearing this, Qiu Aihong looked at Xu Zijin with her mouth open: "Sure enough, being educated makes one different."
"Teacher Xu, we really need to learn from you."
Xu Zijin smiled and said, "You are too modest. We will leave first."
"At five o'clock, send your two children over and have them come to my house to keep them entertained."
What?
Are we still having a birthday party?
Qiu Aihong opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
——Then do you want me to give you something as a gift?
Looking at the backs of the family of five, Qiu Aihong went to Qi Hong's place...
"What are you talking about? The child is scattered, and Zijin just wants to liven up the child."
"No need to give gifts. If you do, she will have to think about how to return the gift."
Okay, okay.
Qiu Aihong thought, if there are any specialties next time, she can send some over. It's so embarrassing to always eat other people's food.
At three o'clock, Qi Hong came to help.
Xu Zijin was a little curious: "Sister-in-law, your mother didn't wait for Director Zhao to get married before leaving? Did something happen?"
Qi Hong sighed deeply when she heard this: "Nothing happened, she just couldn't stay."
"I came back last night and cried all night."
"I persuaded her for a long time before she stopped crying, but she insisted on leaving in the morning."
Xu Zijin: “…”
——It’s pitiful to see the hearts of the elders in the world. When their sons get married in the future, will they have various requirements?
