Chapter 49: The guilt of the crime will make the wine richer
…
While Zhang Xuan was calling Ruan Xiuqin, Mrs. Hui was also calling her mother-in-law Zhang Ru.
As soon as the phone call came through, she asked directly: "Mom, do you know that Zhang Xuan is a writer in your uncle's family?"
Zhang Ru asked back: "Are you talking about Zhang Xuan's contributions to magazines and newspapers?"
Sister-in-law Hui said: "Yes."
Zhang Ru replied: "I know."
Sister-in-law Hui asked, "Is this true?"
Zhang Ru proudly told her, "It's true, absolutely true. Your brother is now a famous cultural figure. I once accompanied Xiuqin to the bank to exchange money with a money order."
"How much was exchanged that time?"
"It's quite a lot, over 1,000 yuan."
At this time, Zhang Ru came to his senses, "Why did you two ask about this today? How did you know about it?"
Sister-in-law Hui replied: "Didn't Zhang Xuan come to our house to play today? He mentioned this matter while drinking."
"Oh." Zhang Ru responded, his tone suddenly changed, and he said sharply: "You are not allowed to have any ideas about him, or I will skin you."
This turn of events is too fast! Mrs. Hui almost fainted when she heard this.
She controlled her tone and said, "Oh, Mom, what are you talking about? We're just curious."
Zhang Ru was very forceful, "It's okay to be curious. Your man has a criminal record. I'm not worried. You should have less contact with him in the future..."
Sister-in-law Hui couldn't listen anymore. If she continued to listen, she was afraid that she would go crazy on the spot! After turning around and giving the receiver to Yang Yun, he went out directly.
She was thinking that instead of being upset, she might as well set up a street stall to make money.
At the same time, I was thinking, this guy Zhang Xuan is really awesome! It was so powerful that it refreshed her outlook on life.
…
"Zhang Xuan, your letter."
The self-study class was one night later, and Wei Wei gave Zhang Xuan a letter.
This time it was not a parcel, nor was it from a magazine or newspaper.
The mailing address turned out to be local to Shao City.
Who?
It is so boring.
This made him a little curious, so he couldn't help but tear it open on the spot and take a look, oh yo! It turned out that Lilith mailed it to him in the afternoon on the day she left the country.
The content of the letter is very, very simple, just 12 words: Only when you have been drunk can you know the strength of wine, and only when you have been in love can you know the importance of it.
The writing was good and the artistic conception of the sentences was good, but he didn't feel anything after reading it.
After taking a glance and putting the letter away, Zhang Xuan told Wei Wei "about asking for leave on Wednesday".
Wei Wei frowned, "If you don't study hard at this juncture, why are you going to the deep city?"
Zhang Xuan kept telling lies, this time sacrificing a knife to his "aunt" who looked down on his family:
"My aunt is seriously ill and may not be able to survive. I will accompany my mother to have a look. As you know, my mother is a rural woman. I am worried about her going such a long way alone."
Wei Wei stared at him and thought for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Okay, but I have to call your mother first to confirm."
With that said, Wei Wei flipped through the roster, found her family contact information, grabbed the landline on the table and made a call.
Zhang Xuan didn't take it seriously at first, thinking she was acting.
Later, when he saw Wei Wei really calling him, he fainted. Without thinking, he rushed over to her, pressed her hand on dialing, and complained: "No way, are you serious about this?"
"What do you think?" Wei Wei gave a mocking look, and then said to the man close at hand: "Let me go!"
After hearing this, Zhang Xuan realized that he had accidentally bumped into the wall. The two of them were almost touching each other and they could smell each other's breath.
The smell of women is pretty good...
Damn it, how could you have such an idea? The next second, he blamed himself.
But the body is really soft...
Sin, sin!
Zhang Xuan hurriedly let go of his hand, took a step back, then took another step back. Seeing that her face was still not red and her heart was not beating, he took a breath and said immediately:
"Okay, please don't make the call. It's true that I went to my uncle in Shencheng, but it's not because my aunt is seriously ill, but to make money."
"Earn money?" The puzzlement on Wei Wei's face became a little more confused, "You are studying, how can you make money?"
"I am also making money from writing now, and I am making more money than you are."
Zhang Xuan said something heartbreaking, and then continued without giving the other party a chance to reply: "This opportunity to make money is fleeting. It is very important to me, and it is also very important to our old Zhang family. You You don’t want me to be in such shabby clothes when I get to college, right?”
Wei Wei looked up and down at his clothes, pants, shoes and socks, and couldn't help but laugh, but didn't answer.
Knowing what she was thinking, Zhang Xuan further explained: "Don't worry, I am working with my brother, sister-in-law and uncle. I will come back as soon as I earn a sum. It won't take more than 3 days."
"Three days, you said it was like picking up money." Wei Wei asked curiously: "What are you going to do? It takes more than three days to rob a bank from setting up locations to planning, right?"
Zhang Xuan retorted: "Do you think I will tell you such a big secret about making money?"
Wei Wei choked, full of curiosity and felt uncomfortable as if she was suddenly blocked by a piece of shit.
Seeing that it was almost time, Zhang Xuan said, "I'm going to tell you about this request for leave. Whether you agree or not, I will go. I really don't want to go home and eat sweet potato rice."
After saying that, he left the office on his own.
A few seconds later, he returned to the office, grabbed the pen on his desk, and wrote a series of numbers on the white paper.
Tell her: "This is the phone number of my cousin's house. If you don't believe it, you can ask. As for my biological mother's place, just don't bother me. Please! I'll treat you to dinner when I come back."
Then, he left again and returned to the classroom.
Wei Wei stared at his back without saying a word, until she couldn't see him anymore, then she lowered her head and checked the phone number. After thinking about it, she picked up the receiver of the landline and dialed.
When I returned to the classroom, evening self-study had already begun.
Zhang Xuan first returned the magazine and newspaper to Du Shuangling, then sat back down and prepared to write questions.
It's a math paper.
But before he was halfway done, Mi Jian suddenly handed something over quietly.
The thing is wrapped in white paper, long, neither thin nor thick.
Zhang Xuan took a look and found a piece of white paper and wrote: Is there money in it?
Mi Jianhui: Yes.
Zhang Xuan wrote: How much?
Mi Jianhui: 3000.
Zhang Xuan looked at her in surprise and wrote: Didn't it say 1800? Why are there so many?
Mi Jian paused for 3 seconds and wrote sincerely: I borrowed some from my dad and gave you a round number.
Zhang Xuan was silent for a while, and did not ask her how she borrowed it. Instead, he carefully wrote two words: Thank you!
Mi Jian replied: You're welcome, I'll pay it back.
Zhang Xuan laughed and wrote mischievously: What should I do if I can’t pay it back?
Mi Jian smiled handsomely and replied: It doesn't matter, I'll find a couple.
Zhang Xuan cut a clean piece of paper from his homework book and started writing an IOU.
After taking two minutes to write it, he checked it over, signed it, wrote the date, and later ran to Wei Wei's office to put his thumbprint with red ink pad before handing the IOU to Mi Jian.
Mi Jian took it and read it quickly, signed it, put it in his pocket, and continued to work on the questions.
