Zhou Hui on the other side was in pain. She didn't dare to take her eyes off the big bag held by Old Lady Zhou, for fear that Old Lady Zhou's hand would touch the small cloth bag containing money, or that the small cloth bag would fall out of the big bag.
Fortunately, everything was peaceful until they reached the train station. Zhou Hui finally felt relieved when Old Lady Zhou put the big bag on the ground.
As soon as Zhou Hui relaxed, she suddenly wanted to go to the toilet, but when she looked at the big bag at Old Lady Zhou's feet, she didn't dare to move away and could only grit her teeth and endure it.
When the Youth League Office's loud speaker sounded for them to board the train, Zhou Hui immediately stood up and quickly picked up the large bag. "Mom, there are too many people. I'll hold the large bag. Once I find a seat, you can pass the rest of the luggage to me through the window."
After saying that, Zhou Hui ran forward. She held the big bag in one hand and reached into the bag with the other hand. After groping for a while, she took out the small cloth bag containing the money from the bag and then put it into the inside pocket of her trousers with one hand.
The moment she got on the bus, the place was crowded with people. Zhou Hui was already in a hurry to pee, and she almost peed because of the squeeze. Zhou Hui quickly closed her legs and slightly bent her back, and only then did she hold her urine.
Zhou Hui knew that if she continued like this, she would wet her pants in public sooner or later. She yelled angrily, "Why are you pushing so hard in the back? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?"
Everyone was really frightened and didn't move for a moment. Zhou Hui quickly seized the opportunity and pushed the person in front of her away, "My stomach hurts, please make way." When she reached the toilet door, she immediately ran into the toilet with the bag in her arms.
After Zhou Hui finished using the toilet, she felt alive again. She wanted to check her wallet, but a deafening knock on the door was heard.
"Whoever's in there, get out here now! You pushed someone down. Do you think you'll be alright if you run in there? Get out here now!"
Those who were pushed down also quickly echoed: "Come out quickly, why are you hiding in there?"
Zhou Hui had no choice but to open the door and apologize, saying she was in a hurry to use the restroom. But the women outside didn't believe her and offered detailed explanations, asking why the stomachache couldn't have come on so quickly and why the toilet wasn't at the station. Their conclusion was that Zhou Hui had deliberately pushed the other person, and she was showered with criticism.
So until the train started, Zhou Hui didn't have the chance to take a look at her own little treasury.
It was a rare day that he had some free time, so Jiang Shushu took out five pounds of fat pork, one pound of pork belly, 10 pounds of rice, two pounds of flour, ten eggs, and ten duck eggs from the supply space to improve his life.
Jiang Shushu didn't feel guilty about taking out these things. After all, Jiang He and his wife knew that she had money and tickets and could afford to buy these things.
Xu Hehua saw the fat meat and smiled as if she was looking at some great treasure. "This is the first time our family has bought so much fat meat. This oil will last us for several months."
Zhou Hui waited until 10 o'clock in the evening before going to the toilet again. She happily took out her small cloth bag, but was stunned when she saw that her big bundle of money had turned into a big bundle of white paper. Zhou Hui opened it in disbelief, but it was still white paper. Zhou Hui thought that all her belongings added up to only more than ten yuan, and she wanted to die.
"Ah... my money." The miserable cry made everyone who heard it on the train shudder.
But no matter how Zhou Hui cried and complained, it couldn't change the fact that her total worth was only a little over ten yuan.
Late at night when everyone is asleep, Yang Xiaobei quietly comes under the big tree and moves the roots away from you.
The next day, a group of children discovered this natural tree hole while playing. Then, word spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and everyone nearby knew that there was a natural tree hole under the big tree. This news also reached the ears of Mrs. Zhou, who was very interested and went to the tree to take a look. She also smiled and praised the tree hole for its unique shape.
On the third day of Zhou Hui's trip to the countryside, it was the day when Old Lady Zhou counted her money once a week. Smiling, Old Lady Zhou moved the cabinet and took away the bricks. She felt for an empty wallet.
Old Lady Zhou was so frightened that she sat down on the ground and immediately started crying, "Who the hell is this? He even stole my money, wuwuwu..."
Mrs. Zhou called the whole family together and asked them one by one who had taken her 500 yuan private money, but no one admitted it.
"Did Zhou Hui take it?" Although Zhou Zhong asked, he was already certain in his heart that it was Zhou Hui who took it.
Zhou's father and Zhou Ren also believed that Zhou Hui took it. Zhou Hui was really capable of doing such a thing.
Mrs. Zhou quickly denied it: "Impossible! I was the one who packed Ah Hui's luggage. There's no way she could have hidden money there. I've also checked her pockets. They're very thin. There's only a few dozen yuan at most. Besides, she doesn't know where the family's money is hidden."
Zhou Ren: "Mom, can the money only be hidden in the luggage? Or on her body? She can also hide it outside. She can take it anytime she wants after leaving the house. She's been home alone these past few days, and your and Dad's room is so small. If she looks carefully, how can she not find it?"
"I saw her get on the train that day..."
Old Lady Zhou suddenly couldn't continue, because she suddenly thought of the natural tree hole under the big tree, and that Zhou Hui had deliberately taken a detour to go under the big tree that day, and that Zhou Hui was particularly nervous about the luggage she was carrying on the way. All these coincidences added up to the point that they were no longer coincidences, and Old Lady Zhou couldn't even deceive herself.
Old Mrs. Zhou cried sadly, "What sin have I committed? How could I give birth to such an unfilial daughter? She stole all the money in the family and didn't keep a penny. She is trying to kill me, wuwuwu..."
When the other three heard Old Lady Zhou crying, they knew that the money was taken by Zhou Hui, and their faces turned ugly.
Especially Zhou Zhong, his face was as dark as it could be.
Damn it! Without these 500 yuan, I have to postpone getting married for two years. I am already 25 this year, and in two years I will have no choice.
Zhou Zhong's face was gloomy. "Mom, write to Zhou Hui and ask her to send the 500 yuan back. If she doesn't send it back, I will pretend that I don't have this sister, and she won't come back to me in the future."
Zhou's father, Zhou Ren, also agreed with Zhou Zhong's words.
"Okay, I'll write it."
As a result, Mrs. Zhou did not receive the money. Instead, she received a letter from Zhou Hui asking her to send her some money.
The people in the Zhou family became even more angry after reading Zhou Hui's letter. They didn't expect Zhou Hui to be so shameless. Not only did she steal all the family savings, but she also wrote to them hypocritically to complain, asking them, poor guys with fatter pockets than their faces, to send money to her, a local tycoon with only a few hundred dollars in assets?
Zhou Zhong was so angry that he wrote 5,000 words overnight, scolding Zhou Hui from beginning to end, inside and out, and devaluing her as if she was not worth a penny.
When Zhou Hui received two letters from the Zhou family, she knew that it was over for her and that she no longer had her mother's home.
