Sun Lan knew that this would cost a lot of money, but she never expected that the other party would ask for so much money.
Five hundred yuan, the total money her mother gave her was not that much.
Sun Lan put her hand into her pocket and counted the money she had with her. In the past two days, she had spent less than half of the money Li Xiulian gave her and the money she had saved, and now she only had one hundred and seventy yuan left.
"Tingting, this is all I have, what should I do?"
Bai Tingting frowned and said, "What should I do? This little money is simply not enough. Even if I give you all the salary I saved, you are still short of one hundred and eighty yuan."
When Sun Lan heard that Bai Tingting wanted to give her hundreds of dollars, she was so moved that she almost shed tears.
She took Bai Tingting's hand and said, "Tingting, you are really my good sister. Even my brother is not as good to me as you are!"
This is more than two hundred yuan.
Li Xiulian got this little money from Sun Peng after a fight with him. For this money, her sister-in-law came back from her parents' house the next day and gave Sun Peng a scolding, and she didn't even let him go back to the house to sleep at night.
Then, her sister-in-law became even more angry towards Li Xiulian and herself. She was so angry that she threw the bowl without even eating.
In such a comparison, Bai Tingting is like an angel in Sun Lan's eyes.
Bai Tingting took out her handkerchief, wiped away the tears from the corner of Sun Lan's eyes, and said to Sun Lan: "When you have the money, you can pay it back to me slowly. If you don't have enough money, just treat it like we are sisters, and I'll give it to you." Tim’s dowry.”
"Thank you Tingting." Sun Lan was so moved that she didn't know how to express it. She grabbed Bai Tingting's hand and choked up until she was speechless.
But even if you owe us two money, you still can't save some money. What are you going to do? Bai Tingting looked at Sun Lan worriedly.
Sun Lan thought for a while and said: "My mother told me before that if I still lack money to buy things here, she will help me find a way. Just wait, I will go home now, and I will definitely spend all the money tomorrow. Bring it here."
"Okay, you come as early as possible, I will wait for you in the dormitory. As soon as I get the money, I will remit it to them."
"Yeah." Sun Lan nodded, then got on his bicycle and pedaled hard towards the compound.
After she rode away, Bai Tingting sneered, nodded the money in her hand, and then put the money directly into her pocket.
If a fool gives you money, don't give it for free!
Anyway, she will be sold to the mountains by human traffickers in the future, and leaving the money to her will give the old man in the valley an advantage.
Thinking of this, a vicious smile appeared on Bai Tingting's face.
Yes, she planned all of this in advance.
Bai Tingting had no intention of giving Sun Lan's money to those traffickers.
She had made a good deal with the traffickers before, saying that she would give them the remaining money when they completed the task. These words were all to coax the traffickers into doing things for her.
After they captured Wu Xia and she disappeared, the traffickers would definitely take it out on Sun Lan, who was in contact with them. Although Sun Lan was a bit ugly, she could still sell it for hundreds of yuan deep in the mountains. She didn't believe it. Those people will let Sun Lan go.
In this way, she could use the hands of human traffickers to get rid of both Wu Xia and Sun Lan.
Thinking that these two annoying people would soon disappear in front of her eyes, the smile on Bai Tingting's face deepened.
After Sun Lan returned home by bike, she saw Xu Guoping carrying meat and Wu Xia walking home side by side.
Seeing the two talking intimately from time to time, Wu Xia looked up at Xu Guoping. Their eyes seemed to be stretched out, and Sun Lan was so jealous that she almost ground her back molars.
Humph, let’s see how long you can remain arrogant!
She cursed fiercely in her heart, turned around and went home.
When her sister-in-law saw her, she said in a long voice: "Hey, our aunt is willing to go home. Let me see what I bought with my nephew's tuition fee?"
Normally, Sun Lan would definitely have said something back, but now she had something on her mind, so she pretended not to hear what her sister-in-law said and went straight into Li Xiulian's room with her head down.
"Lanzi, don't pay attention to her!" Li Xiulian spat towards the door. This daughter-in-law really needs to be dealt with. It is a natural thing for her brother to give her sister a dowry, so why should she, an outsider, interfere in it?
Wait until Lanzi leaves and see how you deal with her.
Sun Lan entered Li Xiulian's house and asked her for money. Li Xiulian didn't have any money in her hand, but she couldn't help but her daughter said pitifully. Li Xiulian gritted her teeth and agreed to lend her money.
As a rural woman, she didn't have many relatives or friends here, so she naturally went to the town to find her sweetheart.
Wang Er felt a little unhappy when he saw that she didn't get any money for him this time and asked him for money, but thinking that Li Xiulian would give him money in the future, he gritted his teeth and took out 50 yuan.
She originally wanted to have some intimacy with Li Xiulian, but Li Xiulian was thinking about her daughter and rushed home in a hurry, so the two made an appointment to let her come again tomorrow.
After Sun Lan got the money, she went to find Bai Tingting. Bai Tingting said: "There are still a few dozen yuan left. I will help you find someone to borrow it. Tomorrow evening, you can find a way to bring Wu Xia to Lizi Hutong. They will be waiting there. she."
"Hey, that's good!"
Thinking that he would take revenge soon, Sun Lan hurriedly agreed.
On this side, Wu Xia was not idle either. She found the location of the house in her dream, and then went to the wholesale market in the town with money.
At that time, the small commodity economy had just begun to emerge, so the government departments were not so strict in market management. Wu Xia paid a high price and quickly got what he wanted.
Then she went to some idle men in the town and told them that she was the director of a film and television studio and that she wanted to select a few people to act in a movie. Each person would be paid 10 yuan a day. Those people would be free to watch the excitement. Taking the money, everyone nodded happily and agreed.
"Everything is ready, now we are waiting to catch the turtle in the urn!" Wu Xia put away the things and said calmly.
Riding a bicycle, Wu Xia returned to the compound. As soon as he entered the house, Xu Guoping came back from get off work.
"Xia Xia, I have two pieces of news for you." Xu Guoping said, "One good news and one bad news. Which one should you listen to first?"
Wu Xia said: "It's better to tell the bad news first. After hearing the bad news, listen to the good news. It will be bitter first and then sweet."
"Today, our army newspaper wrote back, saying that your novel did not meet the demand. It said that your writing skills are good, and you can change the subject and submit again."
After not receiving any news from the military newspapers for so long, Wu Xia already knew that his manuscript should have been rejected.
Therefore, after listening to Xu Guoping's words, she felt no disturbance in her heart. As a writer, it doesn't matter if no one has ever rejected a manuscript.
Then, she asked: "Now that we've said the bad news, what about the good news?"
Xu Guoping originally wanted to comfort her a few more words, but when he saw that Wu Xia didn't care at all, he continued: "The good news is that what you asked me to inquire about has been revealed."
