Dressed As the Villain’s Mother
Chapter 17:
Can dad earn twenty yuan a day?
Ji Zhile went to bed early the night before, he had to recharge his batteries, and he was going out to pick up bottles tomorrow.
When the alarm clock rang the next day, Ji Zhile woke up. He sat on the bed, his slightly curly hair was a bit messy from sleeping, and his fair little face was also a little blush.
Ji Zhile sat blankly for a while without moving, he was reminiscing about the dream he had last night.
He dreamed that he picked up a lot of bottles and made a lot of money, and his family was finally not poor.
Ji Zhile chuckled, and after washing, he went downstairs with his small schoolbag on his back. He was wearing short-sleeved shorts and a sun hat, and he looked like he was about to go on a picnic.
Ji Ning also got up early, saw Ji Zhile's outfit and asked, "Zhile, where are you going?"
Ji Zhile rolled his eyes and said, "I'm going to play with Xiao Yuan."
I can't tell my brother the real purpose, otherwise my brother will definitely tell my mother.
Brother and mother are the best friends, but when he makes money, they will definitely think that he is the most powerful person in the family.
Ji Ning said, "Did you tell mom?"
"say it."
When eating breakfast, Ji Zhile ate very fast. After the meal, he filled his water glass with water and put it in his small school bag, and walked out in a bouncing manner.
When Ji Zhile arrived at Xiao Yuan's house, Xiao Yuan was already downstairs waiting for him.
Xiao Yuan leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Let's go out through the back door, and the park is outside."
Ji Zhile nodded. This is the location they said they decided after discussing. There is a park outside Xiao Yuan's house. Xiao Yuan knows the way, so he doesn't have to worry about getting lost. The park has the most mineral water bottles.
Full of energy, Ji Zhile took out a few garbage bags from his schoolbag: "We'll put the bottles in here later."
Without any hesitation, the two children started immediately, found a trash can nearby and turned over.
The moment he opened the trash can, Ji Zhile covered his nose, feeling that he was about to be fainted: "It stinks."
Xiao Yuan gave him a mask: "It won't stink after wearing it."
Ji Zhile put it on, covering most of her face, only revealing a pair of sparkling eyes, with a smart light shining inside.
"Really, Xiao Yuan, you are so smart!"
Xiao Yuan chuckled: "Of course you have to be fully prepared when you come out to pick up bottles."
While flipping through the trash can, Ji Zhile thought, next time he picks up bottles, he should wear gloves so that he won't get his hands dirty.
The two children turned over the first trash can, but there was not a single bottle in it, and immediately rushed to the next one.
Ji Zhile feels that it is not easy to make money, why are there no bottles in the park.
But in the next second, Ji Zhile turned over a mineral water bottle in the second trash can, and there was still a small amount of mineral water left in it. Ji Zhile held the bottle in his hand, his eyes gleaming: "Xiao Yuan , look!"
His expression was so excited that his whole body seemed to be shining brightly.
Xiao Yuan also widened his eyes and clapped vigorously: "Zhile, you are so amazing!"
Ji Zhile happily unscrewed the bottle cap and poured the water into the sewer. Although he felt it was a bit wasteful, he would not want something that others had eaten.
Finally close the lid and throw the empty bottle in the trash bag with glee.
With the harvest of the first one, both of them were greatly encouraged. After digging through one trash can, they went to the next one. Although they were very young, the two cubs closed the trash can politely and said goodbye.
Gradually walked to the center of the park, where there are so many people exercising and resting, Ji Zhile actually found six bottles from a trash can, Ji Zhile was shocked, and was going crazy with joy: "Xiao Yuan, there are so many bottles here what!"
At the same time, in the center of the park, a female voice speaking standard Mandarin sounded—
"After the completion of Xinfeng Park, it has brought great convenience to the surrounding residents, and it has become a place for everyone to rest and exercise. The park is clean and tidy, and the facilities are well equipped..."
The camera turned and landed on the trash can. Two children who were not much taller than the trash can were struggling to pick up the trash next to the trash can.
The host is keenly aware that this is good material. Two three- and four-year-old children are actively maintaining the sanitation of the park and taking the initiative to throw the garbage that has not been thrown into the trash can. This is very helpful for adults, especially those who like to practice garbage. What an irony for those who shoot the ball, and finally they can call on people to care for the environment.
So, the host approached and asked kindly: "Kids, what are you doing?"
Ji Zhile raised her head, her small face was reddish due to exercise, and wearing a mask revealed a pair of round eyes with clear black pupils.
Even the photographer thought the kid was so cute, even with a mask on, he looked photogenic, like a starlet.
Ji Zhile said, "We're picking up bottles."
Xiao Yuan said, "There are a lot of mineral water bottles here."
The host was stunned for a moment. This answer was different from what she had imagined, but since they were all interviewed, they could only continue to ask: "Are you picking up bottles for recycling?"
Ji Zhile shook her head, her eyes sparkling: "It's for selling money!"
Xiao Yuan said: "The **** got out accidentally, we put it back."
The host was shocked. These two children are less than ten years old together. How could they pick up bottles and sell them for money? Are today's children so precocious?
Ji Zhile took the initiative to ask: "Sister, are you doing an interview?"
He has watched TV and knows that this kind of TV with a camera and a microphone is an interview.
The host smiled: "Yes."
Ji Zhile asked again: "Then can others see our interview?"
"OK."
Ji Zhile opened his eyes wide, and excitedly waved at Xiao Yuan: "Xiao Yuan, come quickly, we are going to be on TV!"
The two children were very excited, and Ji Zhile raised his hand actively, very politely.
The host also smiled and asked: "Do you want to say something?"
Ji Zhile said: "Sister, can you ask the adult who threw the bottle to drink the water in the bottle before throwing it away, so as not to waste it?"
The host did not expect Ji Zhile to be able to speak in such an orderly manner at such a young age, smiling at the camera: "Saving resources is everyone's responsibility."
Ji Zhile nodded. He had a sense of the camera, stared straight at the camera, and said seriously: "If you don't save money, you will become very poor, just like our family."
He generously used himself as an example: "I ordered too much food at KFC, so our family has no money, and my mother doesn't have a beautiful dress. Now I can only eat carrots."
"So kid, did you come out to pick up bottles to make money?"
Ji Zhile nodded, her tone was firm: "I want to make money!"
"What about you?" The host asked Xiao Yuan.
Xiao Yuan said: "My mother said that if you don't study hard, you can only pick up bottles when you grow up. I want to try picking up bottles."
The host couldn't hold back a smile, but said professionally: "The main task of children is to study. It's grown-ups who make money."
Ji Zhile shook his head: "No, everyone in our family can do it, not just adults, because we are all members of the family."
"Sister, will your interview be broadcast on TV?" Ji Zhile asked.
The host said: "Yes, it will be broadcast on the city channel."
Ji Zhile's eyes widened: "Then will my mother see it too?"
"Yes."
Ji Zhile immediately covered her eyes: "Don't let my mother see it!"
"Sister, we are leaving. If my mother finds out, she will beat me up." Ji Zhile pulled Xiao Yuan and wanted to run away.
But he added the second half of the sentence in a very low voice: "It hurts my mother to beat someone."
The two children ran away, and when they stopped, Xiao Yuan asked out of breath, "Why can't your mother know that we are picking up bottles?"
Ji Zhile frowned, he didn't really know the reason, he just said: "Anyway, I can't let my mother know, if she knows, she won't let me come out to pick up bottles, and you don't want your mother to know, right? "
Xiao Yuan nodded, he felt that he was preparing for the future, he didn't want to study, he just picked up the bottle in the future.
Ji Zhile comforted herself again: "Fortunately, we were wearing masks just now, even if my mother saw it, she wouldn't recognize us."
Xiao Yuan felt that what Ji Zhile said was right: "Zhile, you are so smart! Take a look, how many bottles have we picked up?"
Ji Zhile shook the garbage bag, and the collision of the mineral water bottle made a pleasant sound. A garbage bag was already full. He took off his mask proudly, and wiped the sweat from his face: "It's too much, we Take it and sell it!"
Xiao Yuan also nodded excitedly, and took Ji Zhile to the garbage collection station.
A bag of bottles looks like a lot to two children, but the staff at the recycle station weighed it, and the actual weight is less than a catty.
Now the recycling price of mineral water bottles is 2.5 yuan per catty. It is obvious that these bottles are not even worth two yuan.
Ji Zhile watched the weighing without blinking, then raised his head and asked expectantly, "Uncle, how much can these bottles sell for?"
The staff at the recycling station looked into the shining eyes of the two children, and felt embarrassed to tell them the actual value of these bottles, so they could only comfort them and say, "It can sell a lot."
Then he turned around and gave them two dollars: "Take it."
"Thank you, Uncle." The two little ones spoke very excitedly, and Ji Zhile took it with both hands, not to mention how pious they were.
After leaving the recycle bin, Ji Zhile held the money in his hand and counted it carefully, feeling more and more satisfied.
He is not very good at recognizing money. After all, more digital payments are used in his daily life, but he can count and think that two pieces of money are already a lot.
Xiao Yuan said, "I'm so thirsty."
Ji Zhile immediately said angrily: "I'm going to buy water, we have money now!"
The two children entered the convenience store, carefully selected water, and tried to buy the best drink to reward themselves. Xiao Yuan took a bottle of Coke, but Ji Zhile didn’t take water. He had it in his schoolbag, although he still wants to drink now , but Ji Zhile has more important things to do with the money.
When going to check out, Ji Zhile asked, "Auntie, how much is this bottle of water?"
"Three yuan."
Ji Zhile thought for a while, took out a one-yuan bottle, and asked, "How many bottles can I buy with my money?"
The cashier smiled when he saw it: "Little friend, you are one yuan, and you can't even buy a bottle of water."
"Ah?" The two children couldn't believe it. Is this actually one yuan? Then the bottle that the two of them worked so hard to pick up for a long time was sold for only two yuan!
Immediately, Xiao Yuan didn't want to drink water anymore, and returned the Coke with a low voice: "Auntie, we won't buy it."
The two children left the convenience store dejectedly. Ji Zhile held the two yuan in his hand, his face almost wrinkled into a bun, and he sighed: "It's so hard to earn money."
At a young age, it was the first time he experienced the hardships of life. A bottle of water is so expensive. No wonder his family was very poor after eating KFC that day.
Ji Zhile was very sad, took down her small schoolbag, took out the thermos bottle from it, and handed it to Xiao Yuan: "Xiao Yuan, drink my water."
Xiao Yuan said, "Don't be sad, Zhile, as long as we keep picking up bottles, we can keep making money."
"Yes." Ji Zhile was easily encouraged. He calculated in his mind that they could earn two yuan in the morning, and four yuan a day. As long as they picked up bottles for 100 days, they would get four hundred yuan!
It's a lot of money, Ji Zhile nodded: "Xiao Yuan, you are right, I will come to you in the afternoon."
Due to picking up bottles for a long time in the morning, Ji Zhile was physically exhausted, and she ate a small bowl full of them at lunch.
Si Tian was surprised when she saw it. Ji Zhile usually takes a lot of time to eat, and Ji Zhile is very picky about eating.
She observed Ji Zhile carefully, and found that Ji Zhile also ate faster today.
Si Tian stroked her chin and thought, what exactly did Ji Zhile do at Xiao Yuan's house today, it's best to learn from it, and try it next time.
"Mom, I've finished eating. I have to go to Xiao Yuan's house to play in the afternoon." Ji Zhile said.
Dessert nodded: "Go."
"Thank you mom, I'm going to take a nap."
Si Tian's eyes became more and more strange, staring at Ji Zhile's small figure, she murmured: "It's weird..."
As soon as Ji Ning heard it, he asked, "What did Mom say is so strange?"
Si Tian: "Don't you think your brother has become obedient today? It's so strange."
"But it's a good thing. In the future, our family will have two obedient children."
Ji Ning smiled one by one, but somewhat reluctantly.
The little devil in my heart is jumping around again, he is an older brother, he is more obedient, adults prefer obedient children, but now Zhile is also obedient.
Originally, my mother paid more attention to Zhile. Will she like Zhile more in the future?
Ji Ning lowered his head, ate the vegetables in the bowl, and pressed his other hand into a small fist against the table, squeezing tightly.
Ji Zhile went back to his room and locked the door, but didn't take a nap right away. Although he was very sleepy now, he still pulled out his energy and took out his little notebook for revenge.
When picking up the bottle today, Ji Zhile thought about it, and when he got home, he would wipe his mother scolding him for monsters once.
Ji Zhile realized that it is not easy to make money. It is very difficult for the family to live without money. Xiaoyuan's family can eat noodles for breakfast, and Xiaoya's mother has many beautiful dresses.
It's just their house, eggs for breakfast, and mom only has one dress.
Ji Zhile felt that his mother was so pitiful, so he could forgive her for treating him badly.
After wiping it off, Ji Zhile used her phone watch to make a call to her father.
The call was connected quickly, and Ji Zhile took the initiative to ask, "Dad, are you busy?"
Ji Jiangzhou's tone was slightly low: "I'm sorry Zhile, I've been quite busy recently, so I didn't spend much time with you. Dad will be back on Tuesday."
Ji Zhile immediately said: "It's okay Dad, if you're busy, it's okay if you don't come back on Tuesday."
Although Xiao Yuan's father can often accompany Xiao Yuan, it is because Xiao Yuan's father makes people sell things, and his father is busy because he helps others to work. Ji Zhile realized that it is not easy to make money, and it must be difficult for father to make money.
"Dad, don't bring me potato chips back." Ji Zhile said.
This is also the main purpose of his call. Potato chips must be very expensive. If they eat potato chips, maybe their family won't even be able to eat eggs and milk. Ji Zhile doesn't want to go hungry.
"Does Nachiraku need anything else?"
Ji Zhile thought for a while: "Can Dad bring me some mineral water bottles?"
Ji Jiangzhou froze for a moment: "Mineral water bottle?"
Ji Zhile hummed: "I want the one without water in it!"
The uncle at the recycling station said today that mineral water bottles with water in them cannot be sold for money.
Ji Jiangzhou pondered for a moment, thinking that Ji Zhile was going to do handwork with mineral water bottles, which is often done in kindergartens.
As for the child's request, as long as it is not particularly excessive, Ji Jiangzhou will not ask the reason, and directly agrees: "Okay, Dad will bring it back for you."
He thought he could ask the secretary to buy some beautiful mineral water bottles, Ji Zhile likes colorful things.
"Thank you Dad!" Ji Zhile said, "Dad, I'm going to take a nap, I picked up all morning's..."
Uh, almost slipping the tongue, Ji Zhile covered his mouth in time, and changed his words: "I played at Xiao Yuan's house all morning."
Ji Jiangzhou smiled faintly as he listened to Ji Zhile's speech.
Ji Zhile's voice gradually lowered, and he could hear that he was a little sleepy.
"Go to sleep, Zhile." Ji Jiangzhou said.
"Father." Ji Zhile called him suddenly, with a low voice, a little tangled, "I want to ask you, how much money do you earn a day?"
He boldly preset a number in his heart, and at the same time asked cautiously: "Can you earn twenty yuan a day?"
Ji Jiangzhou froze on the spot and didn't make a sound for a long time.
If someone asked this question, Ji Jiangzhou would not only not answer, but would also not take it to heart. In fact, money is just a simple sum to him now.
But when Ji Zhile asked this, Ji Jiangzhou couldn't help thinking: "Zhile..."
Ji Zhile already felt that he understood something, and quickly said: "Don't be sad, Dad, I still love you very much, good afternoon, Dad!"
beep beep—
Hearing the busy tone, Ji Jiangzhou was already in a daze, why would his son ask such a question?
