Chapter 33

"Really?" Zhao Meizhen asked again, unsure.

Song TIANYAO looked down at his body and smiled: "if it was fake, shouldn't I have been hacked to death by brother Hua now?"

As he spoke, song TIANYAO took out his wallet, opened it, took out the 3000 Hong Kong dollar cash and shook it in front of his mother: "3000 yuan, a lot of points. Don't worry. Since your son told you yesterday that he can get the money, he will get it."

"You can't draw it yourself. Bullying your mother hasn't seen what a thousand Hong Kong dollars look like?" Zhao Meizhen saw the cash, and her spirit recovered a bit. She fiercely shook her arm and threw song Chunliang, who was beating her back behind her, aside. She grabbed the three thousand yuan in song TIANYAO's hand and looked over and over.

People in the wooden house area rarely see 500 Hong Kong dollars, let alone 1000 yuan. The deposits of the poor in the wooden house are saved little by little, and they don't know how to deposit their money in the bank or change it into whole notes in the bank. It's normal not to see 1000 Hong Kong dollars.

"Where did it come from?" Zhao Meizhen held the money tightly in her hand, looked at her son and asked, "you didn't return home last night, but you changed your new clothes today? Did you go to rob with others?"

"No, you don't care to rob something that has no future. I'm a secretary now, with a monthly salary of 230 yuan, which is an advance salary." song TIANYAO was completely impatient and told his mother how to become Chu Xiaoxin's secretary, including the original 3000 yuan.

"You mean, you take the borrowed 3000 yuan and spend it all in one night?" Song Chunliang heard song TIANYAO say that he took the money to Luyu teahouse and asked Wu Jinliang to help take the money to entertain Chu Xiaoxin, treat him at Taibai seafood restaurant and drink at Lichi garden. His eyelids jumped.

Luyu teahouse, Taibai seafood restaurant and Lichi garden are all words that people often talk about, but for people in the wooden house area, they don't have the courage to take even one step towards those places, or even look more when passing, lest the other party will collect money.

"Shut up! Hurry to cook! I'm hungry!" Zhao Meizhen has completely recovered at this time. She sits up straight in bed in full spirit, glares at Song Chunliang impatiently and says, "I'm just holding a black heart outside the door. You don't know how to push it for me? Cook! Spend it! It's worth 3000 yuan for a Chu family Secretary!"

Song Chunliang obediently went down to the ground and ran to wash rice to prepare porridge. However, while washing rice, he also pricked up his ears to listen to the dialogue between song TIANYAO and Zhao Meizhen.

Zhao Meizhen said brightly to song TIANYAO, "then you invite young master Chu to dinner, and he asks you to be a secretary? It doesn't matter if you spend 3000 yuan as a secretary of the Chu family! It's more dignified than being a bad guy!"

"Brother, you haven't read a book. At most, you learned how to write with your grandfather when you were a child. How to be a secretary?" Song Wenwen stood nearby. At this time, she heard that her brother had become the Secretary of the president of Chaofeng chamber of Commerce. She couldn't help asking.

She met the secretaries of those rich people in the teahouse. They were all young people from various famous colleges. They had straight suits, wore gold wire glasses, and could speak English skillfully with their mouths open. When she walked, she wanted to lift her chin up to the sky. What kind of person did her brother, a young man in the wooden house area, become?

"Get out of the attic! Your brother is the most literate in the whole cabin area. How can he not be a secretary! Crow mouth!"

Hearing her daughter's suspicion, song TIANYAO had no response. Zhao Meizhen stared and shouted at Song Wenwen.

The roar made song Wenwen go up to the attic. Zhao Meizhen got out of bed and went to the ground, rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, and found a set of thick faced jacket she only wore during the Spring Festival. Regardless of the hot weather, she directly put it on the outside of her T-shirt and had to go outside with 3000 yuan in her hand.

Song TIANYAO looked at his mother and asked, "Hey, mom, what are you doing?"

"Pay back the money!" Zhao Meizhen said confidently: "These scumbags! Yesterday they came to line up and fell into the well one by one, and today I stepped back one by one! All the men of those eight women started work at the wharf, and most of them helped unload the ships of Chaofeng chamber of Commerce. I want them to know that ah Yao of my family is now the Secretary of the second son of the president of Chaofeng chamber of Commerce! If you dare to fall into the well again, they will starve to death in the future!"

Song TIANYAO bowed his head speechless. He felt ashamed of his mother's performance and wanted to stop it. But he thought again that his mother was just a woman born of poor people in the wooden house area. She didn't have much insight. If she didn't show off, she might think she cheated her. Forget it, let her go. Anyway, it's just the wooden house area.

When Zhao Meizhen walked out of her house, twenty or thirty strong men with shoulder poles outside were cleaning up the blood outside under the leadership of Zhao Wenye. The injured had long been carried away. At this time, they were washing the blood on the stone street with buckets of water.

"Aunt Zhen." Zhao Wenye, who splashed a bucket of water, just looked up and saw his aunt Zhao Meizhen go out of the house and hurried to say hello.

Seeing Zhao Wenye, Zhao Meizhen was a little frightened. She knew that Zhao Wenye mixed the prefix of the wharf. These people should be Zhao Wenye's prefix brothers. She sniffed and looked at these twenty or thirty men. Zhao Meizhen said to Zhao Wenye standing over:

"Ah ye, these people are your wharf brothers, aren't they?"

"Yes, aunt Zhen," said Zhao Wenye.

Then in Zhao Wenye's surprised eyes, Zhao Meizhen, his famous and stingy aunt, straightened her back and said to the coolies who were helping to clean in front of her: "hard work, everyone. Wait, let's stay for dinner!"

These coolies already knew song TIANYAO's identity. They just heard Zhao Wenye call each other aunt Zhen. They immediately thought that this was song TIANYAO's mother. When they heard her leave dinner, they cheered, but no one refused. In their view, the cost of inviting these people to dinner was a drop in the bucket for song TIANYAO's identity, and the other party gave face, I can't refuse.

"Pu, your aunt... These people don't know what politeness is?" Zhao Meizhen heard that these men in front of her didn't know what politeness is. She took a breath of air conditioning and scolded in a low voice, but she immediately said to Zhao Wenye in a low voice: "Now go in and ask your uncle to take out all the rice in the house and cook. Zhongyou, there are more than 30 pieces left in the house. Let ah Yao buy some meat. You can't lose ah Yao's face."

After telling Zhao Wenye, Zhao Meizhen touched the three thousand Hong Kong dollars in her pocket and walked into Li Chengcheng's house next door with her head held high.

Without the greeting of Li Chengzhen and his wife, Zhao Meizhen, who was familiar with the way, rushed directly into the other party's house, sat on the bed board, slapped a thousand yuan bill on the bed, and Li Chengzhen and aunt Hong, who were still in shock in front of each other, said, "I'll pay back the money! I owe you 300 yuan, right? Here's a thousand yuan! Change!"
