Chapter 276: The stick is successful, and the money is paid to go to the countryside
Hearing Banggeng's words, Jia Zhang subconsciously looked at the corner under her bed. It was just a glance, and she looked at it with her eyes slanted, but Banggeng still saw everything clearly.
Seeing Jia Zhang's reaction, the little thief Bang Geng was delighted and stopped looking. Just now, he clearly saw a brick on the wall beside the bed leg with obvious signs of being tampered with.
"Banggeng, grandma's money is hidden very well, so don't have any evil ideas. Grandma said that the money is for you to marry a wife. If you spend it all, you will have no wife to marry in the future." Jia Zhang said.
"Okay, grandma, for the sake of my wife, I won't think about your money, okay?" Banggeng said listlessly.
"Haha, that's right! Grandma's money is not yours yet. It will be used for you sooner or later." Jia Zhang said with a smile.
On the side, Qin Huairu was full of contempt when she heard Jia Zhang's words. It sounded like Jia Zhang was trying to fool Bang Geng. She said nice things, but when Bang Geng got married, he would definitely not spend a penny.
Soon, it was night. Banggeng stayed up all night until Jia Zhang went to bed, and then stayed up until Jia Zhang fell asleep. Finally, it was three o'clock in the morning, which is usually the time when people sleep the deepest. Banggeng heard this from behind the fence.
After hearing the rhythmic snoring of his parents, Banggeng quietly climbed up from the bed, then tiptoed to under Jia Zhang's bed, then took out the flashlight he had prepared long ago and shone it on the gate brick he had found during the day.
Then, Banggeng gently pulled the brick with his hand, and it left the wall, leaving only a dark hole.
Seeing the hole, Bang Geng was very happy and reached his hand in directly. Then he touched a bulging cloth bag. When he took it out, it was clearly a sock with something stuffed inside.
Bang Geng was very happy to feel the touch of his socks. He stuffed the socks into his pocket, then stuffed the bricks into his pocket and tiptoed back to bed to sleep.
Then, Banggeng's hands were in his trouser pockets the whole night. He was very excited and thrilled. In his life, he had only touched so much money when he stole from Shazhu.
Early the next morning, Bang Geng couldn't wait to see how much money he had, so he got up and ran outside.
"Banggeng, why are you going out? Pack your things early, today is the day you are going to the countryside." Qin Huairu, who had gotten up early to pack her things, asked.
"Oh, Mom, I don't know what I ate, but I've had diarrhea all night. I'm going to have diarrhea now." Bang Geng shouted.
"Kid, you don't want to go to the countryside and cause trouble, right?" Qin Huairu asked suspiciously.
"Mom, can I not go if there's something fishy going on?" Bang Geng said speechlessly, "I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go first."
After a while, Banggeng came to the dry toilet and found a pit next to it. Banggeng squatted down, then hurriedly took out the socks from his pocket and started digging.
Soon, Banggeng took out a roll of money, and then he was shocked. It was a whole roll of big black stones, which looked like several hundred dollars.
"Hahaha, I've made a fortune. Now I can live a good life in the countryside. This is great. That old woman Jia Zhang is really good at saving. She actually has several hundred dollars." Bang Geng laughed in his heart, "Anyway, it's for me to marry a wife. It's just right for me to use."
Thinking of this, Banggeng stood up, put the money back into his pocket, and went home.
After returning home, Banggeng ate a few bites of the breakfast made by Qin Huairu, and then the mother and son cleaned up.
Soon, Qin Huairu carefully packed the sticks, from small items like toothbrushes and towels to large items like cotton-padded clothes and quilts.
"Bang Geng, this is five dollars. Mom really has no other choice. This is all she has. Take it. I will send it to you as soon as I can save any money in the future." Qin Huairu said.
As she spoke, Qin Huairu handed the few notes in her hand to Bang Geng. Seeing the notes, Bang Geng had no interest at all, so he said, "Mom, life is hard at home, you should keep it. I thought about it yesterday and I think going to the countryside is a good thing. Think about it! The countryside is a place where food is grown. I will definitely not starve. You should keep the money. Xiaodang and Huaihua are also very thin. Buy them some delicious food to nourish them!"
Hearing Banggeng's words, Qin Huairu stared with eyes as big as copper bells and said incredulously, "Banggeng, are you a little confused because of diarrhea? You actually... actually think like this."
"Mom, what are you talking about? I'm grown up now. How about this? You give me two dollars and fifty cents, and keep two dollars and fifty cents for the family. I'll save it for my own use."
As he said that, Banggeng took the money, counted out two dollars and fifty cents and put them in his pocket, then gave the rest to Qin Huairu.
"Oh, God bless, Dongxu bless, my Banggeng has finally grown up. Come on, I'll take you to the street office." Qin Huairu said happily. She didn't expect her son to be so sensible.
"Okay mom."
Just like that, after a while, the mother and son arrived at the street office. At this time, the yard of the street office was full of children who came to the countryside and parents who came to see them off.
The children all looked aggrieved, bitter and confused, while the parents looked reluctant and helpless.
"Hey, you all look miserable, as if you are going to the execution ground. Is it that serious? It's just going to the countryside. What's the big deal?" Banggeng said with a look of contempt.
After hearing Banggeng's words, Qin Huairu could hardly believe her ears. It seemed that her son had changed overnight, and she could hardly accept it.
"Banggeng, weren't you afraid of going to the countryside before?" Qin Huairu asked suspiciously.
"Mom, that was before. I've figured it out long ago. It's just a move to the countryside. How could a grown man like me be afraid of this? If I were afraid, I would look down on myself." Bang Geng said shamelessly.
"Oh! My son has really grown up, great! You must live well when you go to the countryside. Mom will wait for you to come back here. As soon as you come back, I will give you my work position and then find you a wife to marry." Qin Huairu said.
"Okay, mom. But if I'm going to find a wife, I want her to be as pretty as you were before. I don't want an ugly one." Bang Geng said.
"Okay, it has to be beautiful." Qin Huairu said with a smile.
So, after standing in the yard for a while, the street office sent people out to gather those who were going to the countryside, and after calling their names, they were sent directly to the train station.
At the same time, Jia Zhang was a little uneasy at home. She had been feeling strange today, as if she had lost something.
"Could it be that I feel uncomfortable because Banggeng is gone?" Jia Zhang thought, "No! It's not like I'm going to the execution ground, why should I feel uncomfortable?"
