Jiang Shushu looked at the cotton quilt without a piece of cloth, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He thought of Jiang Mingli as a dog, but he didn't expect him to be such a dog. He really didn't want to spend a penny more.
"Little sister, the quilt has been bought, let's go."
Damn, is that a quilt? That's a batting.
"Brother, my parents' quilt covers are all pilling..."
Jiang Mingli's eyes twitched, and he quickly interrupted Jiang Shushu, "Little sister, you need cloth coupons to buy a quilt cover. I don't have any, so I can't buy one even if I want to. I can only let my parents make do with it. When I have some spare cloth coupons, I'll buy it back for them."
Waiting for you to buy it? I guess I won’t be able to wait for 10 years from now.
"Really?" Jiang Shushu looked unconvinced, his eyes fixed on the place where Jiang Mingli put the money.
Jiang Mingli took out his own tickets and said, "If you don't believe me, look and see if there are any cloth coupons. If there were, I would have bought them for my parents without you telling me." Fortunately, I didn't bring any cloth coupons with me today.
Jiang Shushu lowered his head and quickly looked over the tickets, then quickly pulled out a malted milk ticket and a 1,000-gram milk powder ticket.
"Brother, Dad has lost a lot of weight recently. I finally bought him a can of malted milk last time, but he's almost finished it. The doctor said it's best to drink it until the end of the year. I'm worried about where to buy more. Our Q City is small, and you may not be able to buy it even if you have a ticket. Why don't you buy Dad a can of malted milk? If he drinks it sparingly, he can drink it until the end of the year. Mom's health is worse than Dad's. Milk powder is the most gentle and most suitable for her. You can buy her a bag of milk powder so that she can take care of herself."
Jiang Mingli thought that he had almost spent two hundred yuan today, and his face was full of resistance when he thought about buying more things.
Seeing that Jiang Mingli was unhappy, Jiang Shushu quickly said: "Brother, I know you spent a lot today, but I can't help it. Things have all happened at the same time. I went to work as soon as I graduated from high school. How many months' salary is it? It's not enough to pay for my parents' medical expenses. It was my third uncle who helped share the 50 yuan medical expenses. You just buy it this time. I will find a way to buy it myself next time. I will definitely not trouble you." If you don't buy it for me, I don't know where you can put your face.
Jiang Mingli looked at the bag that Jiang Shushu was carrying with an expression that said, "You have no money, yet you buy so many things."
"These are things my colleagues asked me to buy. After all, it's a rare visit. Don't look at how many bags I'm carrying, but I have nine colleagues, so each of them only gets one or two items."
Jiang Mingli: "..." Jiang Mingli felt like he had eaten shit, unable to swallow it or spit it out.
"You wait here, I'll go buy it."
"Okay, brother." He jerked off more than 20 times.
Brother, brother, brother, please don’t call me brother. It makes me feel sad. It’s more than two hundred yuan. How could I spend more than two hundred yuan?
After a while, Jiang Mingli came back with malted milk and milk powder, his face was dark.
Jiang Shushu knew that he could only get so much wool today, and if he continued, he would be in trouble.
"Brother, let's go. There's nothing else to buy. We've already bought the emergency necessities that Mom and Dad need."
When Jiang Mingli heard that he didn't need to spend any more money, he felt relieved, but the serious expression on his face didn't change at all. He was afraid that Jiang Shushu would get ahead of himself and change his mind and buy this or that.
After leaving the department store, Jiang Shushu immediately said: "I'm here on a business trip and staying at the Anhe Road Guesthouse with my colleagues. Could you please help me deliver the things there? I'll take them back to my parents tomorrow. Don't worry, these things will definitely be used for my parents. You can go back to see them during the Chinese New Year, and I'll ask my mother to kill a chicken for you." After giving so much, eating a chicken is not too much. If he doesn't pay the child support on time, he probably won't have the face to go home and eat chicken.
"Okay, business trip? Where do you work?"
"I work at a state-owned restaurant, and our chef is participating in a cooking competition held every three years. I'm here to join in the fun and do some shopping for everyone."
…
Jiang Shushu asked Jiang Mingli to put the things in his room.
"Okay, it's getting late, go back! Go back and check your 5 yuan pension." The wool has been collected, the hard work is done? There is no need to keep people. Jiang Shushu doesn't even call him brother anymore.
"Okay, I'm leaving then."
"etc."
Jiang Mingli paused and suddenly became a little nervous. He thought he wouldn't ask me to pay another 50 yuan to pay back my uncle!
"Remember to deposit your pension money on the 1st of every month. Don't forget."
"Don't worry, I won't forget it."
Jiang Mingli walked out quickly, fearing that Jiang Shushu would remember the 50 yuan.
There is no need to use Uncle San's money urgently, so you can pay it back slowly. You can send him ten yuan every month, and you can pay it back in a few months.
Jiang Mingli returned home empty-handed. Chen Feng saw him and immediately asked, "Didn't you go buy a fan? Where's the fan?"
"Don't worry about the fan for now. Show me the remittance slip for the money you sent to my parents."
Chen Feng's heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to be calm and said, "Why are you looking at this thing? Didn't you see it last month?"
"I just found out today that my parents haven't received a single cent in the past two years. Give me the remittance slip and I'll check."
Where did Chen Feng have the remittance slip? There was only one handwritten one, and the date had been changed multiple times. How many months had Jiang Mingli only looked at it once in the past? He'd only glanced at it from a distance. If he'd taken it out and looked closely, he'd definitely have noticed something wrong.
"Wenchen? He was having fun today and threw the remittance slip into the water. I saw it was rotten, so I threw it away. I'll go ask about it tomorrow."
Jiang Mingli looked at Chen Feng deeply and said, "Okay."
Chen Feng found an opportunity and secretly ran away to her mother's house.
Li Zhu saw Chen Feng, "Xiao Feng, why did you come here alone? Where are Wenzhe and Wenchen?"
"Their dad is watching. Mom, I need something. Let's go to your room and talk."
"Tell me, what's the matter? You look so flustered."
Chen Feng told the story of how she had embezzled five dollars of retirement money from Jiang He and his wife.
Li Zhu was furious when she heard this. "How could you be so stupid? You're obsessed with money. You even dare to embezzle this kind of money. Your husband earns 48 yuan a month, but he only gives 5 yuan to his parents. Where can you find such a good thing?"
Chen Feng was furious. "I just don't want to work for that country bumpkin and old woman. How dare that old man come to my house and scold us? And he wants me to give them money every month. They're dreaming."
"If they weren't country bumpkins, do you think you could get rid of them with 5 dollars a month? We finally have our son-in-law's heart on our side, and you have to go to all this trouble. Are you going to be satisfied only if your husband turns away from you?"
Shen Feng said confidently: "He won't, and he doesn't dare."
"Will he? Do he dare? You don't have the final say. Do you think Jiang Mingli is still the same Jiang Mingli? He is now the head of the security department, which is only slightly lower than your father's position."
