Chapter 93 It’s delicious
Ji Zhen felt a surge of anger rushing to her head, her heart seemed to be about to jump out of her throat, the frequency of beating increased sharply, her chest felt so stuffy that even breathing became difficult.
She fumbled with her hands on the table beside her.
He opened his mouth wide, covered his heart with one hand, and gasped heavily, his face instantly turning as pale as paper.
Then, she quickly took out the medicine from her pocket, poured out a few pills with trembling hands, and threw them directly into her mouth and swallowed them.
She leaned against the desk, and after a long time, her condition improved slightly.
He raised his head, looked straight at Chen Binjie who had no guilt in his eyes, and said coldly:
“Chen Binjie, if something happens to me, you can’t escape, and your family will have to pay compensation.”
Chen Binjie snorted, put his schoolbag on his back, and left quickly.
"You're useless, you sickly fellow."
When passing by Ji Zhen, he deliberately bumped into Ji Zhen's shoulder.
Ji Zhen staggered and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately she held on to the table and managed to keep her balance.
Wait until you stand firm.
She exhaled deeply, bent down to pick up the bottle on the ground, and poured out the remaining drink in it.
Then she took out a neatly folded snakeskin bag from her schoolbag, spread it out, and threw the drink bottle into the bag.
After doing all this, she found a mop and cleaned the water stains on the floor.
Then he left the classroom.
She came to the school's garbage dump.
Next to the garbage dump, I saw a few old ladies hunched over, searching for something in the garbage.
They were all looking for items that could be sold for money.
Ji Zhen saw them and walked up to them and greeted them.
These old ladies all know this child and often see her picking up trash here.
At first, they were unhappy with Ji Zhen for competing with them for garbage and would even drive her away. Later, after learning about her family's situation, they stopped driving her away.
Ji Zhen put on a pair of slightly dirty gloves, bent down and began to rummage through the garbage, putting everything that could be sold into the snakeskin bag she brought.
The sky gradually darkened.
Ji Zhen dragged a snakeskin bag that was more than half full, waved goodbye to the old ladies who were still picking up trash, left the school, and headed for a nearby recycling station.
She emptied the contents of the snakeskin bag and sold them for a few dollars. Then she folded the bag, held it in her hand, and walked home.
On the way, she stopped by the vegetable market and bought some vegetables.
After arriving home, Ji Zhen washed vegetables and cooked, then sat quietly at the table to eat.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Ji Zhen glanced at her phone and the screen showed that it was her brother calling.
She pursed her lips slightly and clicked the answer button.
Picking up the phone, with a sweet smile on her face, she shouted:
"Brother~"
On the other end of the phone, Ji Beichi heard his sister's voice, smiled, and asked in a gentle tone:
"What are you doing? Have you eaten?"
Ji Zhen chuckled, picked at the rice in her bowl, and replied:
"I ate, I ate a lot today. I bought some pork and a bunch of grilled sausages. They were delicious!"
Ji Beichi smiled and said, "Well, you should quickly accept the money I gave you. If there is anything you want to buy, don't be reluctant. Brother has money."
Ji Zhen picked up a piece of cabbage and stuffed it into her mouth, responding excitedly:
"Yes! I'll get it in a minute. What did you eat, brother? Are you happy at school?"
"I'm very happy. College life is great and my classmates are all very nice. However, my brother is happier when Jizhen is happy."
"Hey, really? Brother is happy, so am I~"
At this time, Ji Beichi was sitting in front of the cashier counter, looking at the computer in front of him, tapping his fingers on the keyboard a few times.
"My school is out in two days, I'll be back."
Ji Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and she bit her lip when she thought of the bruises on her body.
"Okay, brother, what time will you be back? I'll get ready and go to the market to buy some groceries first."
Ji Beichi: "You don't have to buy it. I'll buy it on the way back. I'll be home around 4 or 5 in the afternoon. Remember to send me any dishes you want to eat and I'll go buy them."
Ji Zhen nodded vigorously.
"Okay~ Brother, what are you doing now? It feels a bit noisy over there."
Ji Beichi replied: "I was playing basketball on the court, and there were a lot of people around me."
Ji Zhen knew without a second thought that her brother must be working in a store.
"Yeah, well, have fun, brother. I'll continue eating. Bye~"
Ji Beichi warned: "Okay, remember to be good and don't skip meals. You have to eat every day."
"I know, I know. You always say that. You give me so much pocket money that I can't spend it all. I have so much money, how can I be reluctant to spend it? I've already said that I just can't gain weight. I'm not starving myself. Stop nagging me~"
Ji Beichi was relieved: "How is your study? Is there any problem?"
Ji Zhen grinned and said, "What's the problem? I, your sister, am the top student in the grade. My brother is so good, so I'm sure I'm not bad either. Don't worry."
"Okay, okay, I'm hanging up."
"Bye~"
Ji Zhen hung up the phone, finished her meal, and looked at the transfer record on her phone.
Ji Beichi transferred two thousand yuan to her.
I don’t know what kind of work he does.
Ji Zhen's eyes were red, she sighed softly, walked into the kitchen with the dishes and washed them.
Then she went into the bathroom, wiped the dirty surface of her schoolbag, and washed her hair.
Walk into the bedroom.
She looked at the vase by the window. The flowers in it had already withered beyond recognition.
Sighed.
She walked to the closet, rummaged around in it for a while, and took out an iron box.
When I opened the iron box, it was full of change.
There are dimes, fifty-cent coins, one-dollar, five-dollar, ten-dollar, twenty-dollar notes, and the largest denomination of one hundred-yuan banknotes.
She saved this money bit by bit by helping classmates with homework, cleaning, and picking up trash at school.
Among them, only a few had larger denominations, which were red envelopes given to her by her brother as New Year gifts.
She took out more than twenty yuan from her pocket and put it into the iron box. She then picked up a small notebook in the iron box and wrote down the amount.
She had been forced to understand a lot since her parents died.
At the age of nine, he began to secretly take orders to do homework and pick up garbage to make money. He was always cautious for fear of being discovered by Ji Beichi.
Every time Ji Beichi was at home, she was extremely cautious. She was almost exposed several times and only managed to get away with it by lying.
After all, in Ji Beichi's eyes, his sister is well-behaved and sensible, and never lies. Even if he occasionally has doubts, he will still trust her unconditionally.
She had already saved at least tens of thousands of yuan, plus the living expenses that Ji Beichi gave her from time to time. Her brother was afraid that she would not have enough to eat or use, so he gave her almost all the money he earned.
Transfer whatever you have to her.
So quite rich.
But she has always lived frugally and has not been willing to spend money lavishly. In total, she has saved tens of thousands of dollars.
Ji Zhen thought to herself that she was considered a small wealthy woman.
It’s not that Ji Zhen didn’t want to give the money to Ji Beichi, but once her brother knew that she was saving money, he would definitely be angry, scold her, and strictly forbid her to do so.
She didn't dare give her brother expensive gifts, for fear that he would feel stingy with the money.
She never dared to show that she was rich. She would accept the money her brother gave her every time because she knew that if she didn't, her brother would try his best to make her accept it and even buy her gifts to make her happy.
So, she had no choice but to accept it. She planned to save the money so that in case she was gone one day, it would be a guarantee for her brother.
If he could save more, maybe his brother could get married. If she is gone, there will be someone to accompany him in the future.
Below the change was a piece of letter paper, which was the suicide note she had written two years ago.
Ji Zhen happily put the money in order and hid it back in an empty box specially made under the wardrobe.
That was a secret compartment that she had spent a lot of time designing to hide things.
It would be difficult for Ji Beichi to find out. Even if he did, he would not touch it after seeing what she wrote, "This is where Ji Zhen keeps her diary. Brother must not touch it, otherwise I will fight you to death."
Ji Beichi has always respected her privacy, so naturally he would not take the initiative to open it.
After Ji Zhen had tidied everything, she returned to her desk, first completed her own homework, and then started helping other students with their homework.
