When having supper at home in the evening, Liu Zhiguo just buried his head in eating, silently, but thinking about this matter in his heart, how can he get thousands of dollars to buy a ring?
Before he could think of a good idea, his mother Xu Qiaoxiang, who was sitting at the same table, glanced at him and said, "Zhiguo, why are you so worried tonight and not saying a word?" Tell me, what do you think? Tell mom.
Liu Zhiguo suddenly raised his head and lied. I was still thinking about the current political topics that Teacher Li taught me that were too serious and difficult to remember. It's so boring, Mom, I don't want to learn these things anymore.
However, Xu Qiaoxiang patiently enlightened his son: Only by studying current affairs and politics can he be successful, and he can be an official in the future. Being an official is better than doing business. Your father said that no matter how rich a businessman is, he will be controlled by officials. I hope you will be an official in the future and be in charge of many people, especially wealthy businessmen. Only then will you be prestigious and promising.
Liu Zhiguo still said dissatisfiedly, Mom, have you been brainwashed by your father? I don’t want to hear it anymore.
Dad is away on a business trip. If he were at home, listening to what you said, it would be strange if he didn't yell at you! Xu Qiaoxiang also said that we asked Teacher Li to "open a small stove" for you, and we paid for it. The purpose is to improve your knowledge of current affairs and politics and to be promising in the future.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhiguo put his hands into his ears and refused to listen. Xu Qiaoxiang said angrily and loudly, "Government, mother said you, it is for your own good." What you do is disrespectful to your mother and lacks education. No matter how talented an ill-educated child is, he won't be able to achieve great things, let alone if you don't have the ability, if you do this, it will make your mother sad.
When Liu Zhiguo saw that his mother was angry, he took his hands away from his ears and walked straight to his bedroom. When I entered the bedroom, I heard my mother say, if you do this, I will ask Teacher Li to fire you from the job of running a small stove for you tomorrow.
Liu Zhiguo was anxious, worried that if he really fired Teacher Li Juanxiu, he would have fewer opportunities to get along with her. This was something Liu Zhiguo was extremely reluctant to do.
So, he immediately came out of the bedroom to admit his mistake to his mother, and then he was forgiven. Liu Zhiguo returned to the bedroom and couldn't sleep. He thought about the problem over and over in the middle of the night. If he could get a large amount of money to buy a gold ring for Li Juanxiu, whom he had promised because of his love, he would wear it himself.
When the rooster crows, Liu Zhiguo, who is very tired and still hasn't fallen asleep, comes up with a ridiculous but implementable method.
The next day, Liu Zhiguo went to the financial department of Shanyue Construction Company, which his father Liu Zhenxing had run for many years, to borrow money. He typed out an IOU of 3,000 yuan and handed it to Xiao Jiang, the cashier in the financial office.
When Xiao Jiang saw that he was the son of the company's chairman, he accepted the IOU and did not lend him the money immediately. Instead, he approached Yin Zhen, the chief financial officer, and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to borrow the money?"
Yin Zhen smiled calmly, picked up his cell phone and dialed Chairman Liu's number, but all he got was a blind tone. Yin Zhen took the IOU, looked at it, and asked Liu Zhiguo what he wanted to borrow the money for. His brain reacted very quickly, so he just told a lie and said that he was participating in martial arts training at Chengnan Jingwu Hall. His forehead was sweating, and he was worried that if Yin Zhen really made the call, his father would not agree to the finance office to lend him money. Now it was fine, Yin Zhen did not make the call, believed him, and asked Xiao Jiang to give him 3,000 yuan. money.
Liu Zhiguo put the money in his purple underwear purse and was going to the gold shop to choose a gold ring for Li Juanxiu in order to please her.
When he came out of the company, there was a highway in front of him. He squeezed into a bus that was parked at a temporary stop on the roadside. There were no seats and it was crowded with people. He just stood holding the buckle hanging on the bus.
I saw a young man with long hair squeezing in and a few freckles on his nostrils. He felt a little disgusted by the sight, so he raised his head and looked outside the car.
The car entered the city center and stopped at a temporary roadside stop. Before he got off the bus, a passenger looked at him and said, Comrade, there was a man with long hair stealing your money just now. How come you didn't know?
What? Liu Zhiguo couldn't believe his ears. He reached out and touched his crimson underwear again. It was empty and the money was gone. He said, I know the man with long hair, and I will call the police next time I meet him. Liu Zhiguo got out of the car, blinked at the two golden stores in front of the street, and refused to go in. He shouted, "What bad luck!"
When I got home that day, my mother asked awkwardly, why did you borrow 3,000 yuan from your father's company today? Liu Zhiguo looked disgraced and didn't answer. Instead, he asked, "Mom, how did you know?"
Mom said, can I not know? Your father was away on a business trip and called, saying that Chief Yin from the Finance Office told him. Let me ask you, what are you borrowing 3,000 yuan for? Liu Zhiguo couldn't say and couldn't say that the money was stolen. I had no choice but to continue lying. I wanted to go to Chengnan Jingwu Hall to learn taekwonding, and I needed to pay so much money.
My mother scolded dissatisfiedly, "You are so busy with homework, how can you have time to study?" Liu Zhiguo replied, every weekend afternoon when school is on holiday, I go to study. Mom still said angrily, why didn't you ask me for money? Liu Zhiguo twisted his neck to one side and said, "I'm looking for you, but I'm worried you won't give me anything."
His mother continued to teach him: What you do is not only a matter of money, but also a matter of quality. If you are dishonest, you will live up to the hopes that your father and I have placed on you.
A week later, at the end of get out of class, Teacher Wu from Class 1, Grade 3, Shanyue Middle School called out Liu Zhiguo, who was sitting in the classroom with his head buried in the mirror, and whispered, a policeman asked you to go to the Chengguan Police Station. Liu Zhiguo was horrified, his face turned pale, and then he said, I didn't break the law, why should I go to the police station?
Teacher Wu smiled lightly and said that the police station is not arresting you, but wants to learn about a situation from you. The policeman said that he caught a thief this morning. During the interrogation, he confessed that he had stolen money from a boy from Shanyue Middle School, but he did not say how much.
Liu Zhiguo asked strangely, Teacher Wu, how did you know that the boy whose money was stolen was me? Teacher Wu explained the reason, and the policeman said that the thief confessed that the money was stolen from the car, and that the boy who was stolen had a crimson mole on his lip. According to this characteristic, we analyze that it is you. There are quite a few students in our school with moles on their faces, but you are the only one with moles on your lips. I don’t care whether you go to Chengguan Police Station or not, I’ll inform you anyway. Liu Zhiguo heard this and said readily, "Go!" Maybe I will get my stolen money back, so why not go?
In the interrogation room of the Chengguan Police Station, a boy with a round face was kneeling on the ground, his head slightly lowered, looking honest, but his crab eyes slowly slid back and forth, making people think he was cunning. There was a policeman sitting in front of him with a serious face, interrogating him, and patting the table from time to time.
A policeman sitting on the side was taking notes in a notebook; another policeman, like an orderly, was holding a boiling water bottle and adding tea to the teacup in front of the policeman who was interrogating the juvenile, and then adding tea to the policeman who was taking notes. He glanced at the tea that stirred the tea leaves and nodded to the policeman to express his gratitude. The policeman smiled slightly, picked up a paper cup, put some tea leaves in it and filled it with tea. He approached the young man and said, "Li Feijian, do you want to do this?" The policeman who interrogated the young man frowned and yelled, "This guy is dishonest, why are you giving him tea?"
The young man glanced at the cup of tea handed to him and shook his head not to drink it. But the policeman still brought a small stool very humanely, placed it at his feet that could be reached even when he was kneeling, and then placed the cup of tea on the stool.
Suddenly, there was another young man carrying a schoolbag standing at the door of the interrogation room. Although the door was open, he still did not dare to rush in without saying hello. Instead, he cautiously reached out and tapped the door panel and asked, "Oh, Is your police station looking for me? The policeman who interrogated the young man looked at him and said, are you a student of Shanyue Middle School? The boy said "hmm".
The policeman who took notes also turned to look at him, then pointed at the policeman who interrogated the young man and introduced him as Director Yan.
Director Yan motioned for the young man to come in, and after asking his name was Liu Zhiguo, he asked, "Did you get paid by a pickpocket on the bus last time?" How much is it?
Yes, Director Yan, a total of 3,000 yuan. As soon as Liu Zhiguo walked in, he glanced at the kneeling young man who might be a pickpocket. He felt that his face resembled a person. As for which person he looked like, he was a little flustered and had not yet determined.
