MTL - Pass Through 80s: A Notoriety-Chapter 3 The mess left by the original owner!
Chapter 3 The mess left by the original owner!
The family members of the Agricultural Machinery Company knew that Xu Fang's mother and daughter had quarreled again.
Since Ji Ling made a fuss about not taking the college entrance examination and going to work in the Provincial Institute of Architecture a month ago, Ji's family has never been quiet, and there are quarrels every day.
After the college entrance examination was quiet for two days, the family broke out again.
The residents of the family courtyard felt that Ji Ling was too noisy in private, and could drive a gentle person like Xu Fang crazy.
The school in Beixian County is in the east of the county, and you can see two rows of red tile houses in the distance, that is County No. 1 Middle School.
More than a dozen people who took the college entrance examination came out of the class one after another. Ji Ling and Tian Jing walked at the back. When they left the class, Ji Ling was stopped by the boys in the corridor.
The boy is tall and thin, but very energetic. The most noticeable thing is that he is wearing a pair of leather shoes.
"Ji Ling, I'll wait for you in front." Tian Jing nodded to Ji Ling and walked away quickly.
"Student, what do you want from me?" Ji Ling didn't know the boy in front of her, but the boy in front of her obviously knew her and was very close.
Hearing her call classmate, the boy pursed his lips, and without speaking, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and held it in front of her.
Ji Ling looked at the content on the paper and fell into deep thought.
"Ji Ling, are you going to pay back the money, or keep your promise to date me?" The other party's voice pulled Ji Ling back from her thoughts.
She asked, "Is there a mistake?"
The boy frowned, glanced greedily at her face, and turned away from her with a blushing face, "It has your signature and fingerprint on it. When you borrowed money, you said you would pay it back when your father was discharged from the hospital." , In the past six months, you have always said to pay it back as soon as possible, and my mother has been asking me who I borrowed the fifty yuan, and if you don't pay me back, I can't hide it."
The boy paused, and his face turned even redder, "Before you said that you would talk to me after the college entrance examination, did you forget?"
Ji Ling looked at the writing on the paper again. She had read the original owner's notes, and it was indeed her writing.
She took a deep breath, reached out and took out the one yuan and fifty cents in her pocket, and stuffed it into the other party's hand regardless, "I only have so much now, don't worry, I will pay back the money next month, if not, You go directly to my house and ask for it."
For fifty yuan, you have to sell your feelings. What the **** is the original owner doing?
Ji Ling walked fast, and the boy behind her shouted at her, "If you don't pay back the money next month, I'll go to your house and ask for it."
Ji Ling stood dejectedly on the side of the street, all she could think about was how to make money.
She glanced a few steps away, her eyes suddenly lit up, and walked quickly.
"Is this permanent brand? It's so new, is it a new one?" Ji Ling's mind was spinning rapidly, and she stopped after circling the bicycle, "The chain of the bicycle is broken. I can't ask for a chain to repair the bicycle. You are dozens."
She stared at the other party with burning eyes, and the words "Quickly ask me" were only written on her face.
The man stood up and asked cooperatively, "Does this comrade know of a place where car repairs are cheap?"
Ji Ling opened her mouth and was about to say that I would, but if she thought about it incorrectly, she would be taken as a liar by the other party if she was too direct, so she said in a devious way, "A bicycle is worth seven months' salary, and you will not be less expensive wherever you go to repair it." money."
The man showed no expression, his voice was still flat, "Then is there any other way?"
Good, not stupid.
Ji Ling took a deep breath, "My dad is a worker in a machinery factory. I have been playing with him since I was a child. How about I give you a try?"
The man looked at her and said in silence, "Then I will trouble you."
Ji Ling breathed a sigh of relief, saying that it was not troublesome, and moved her hands conveniently.
"Look here, you need to align the top rod of the chain hitter with the pin in the chain, tighten the chain pin slowly, and then you can remove the pin, so that you can re-buckle the chain block one front and one back Insert it into the chain mesh at both ends, and finally buckle the two ends, and the broken chain will be connected."
As she spoke, she quickly connected the chain and put it back on the bike.
"Look, it's that simple. If the chain breaks in the future, you can fix it yourself." Ji Ling looked at the other party and smiled, "Do you understand? You won't have to spend this money in the future."
Man, "Thank you."
Ji Ling: .
She was heartbroken, and said word by word, "These technologies are not rumored, I will tell you today, you don't need to pay more, ten yuan is enough."
After a long silence, the man said quietly, "I thought you were doing something good."
Ji Ling: .
Half a penny stumps a hero.
Ji Ling tightly held the ten yuan given by the man in her hand, and watched the back of the man disappear around the corner of the street before turning her gaze away.
The red face was hot all the way to the ears, and in order to make money, she couldn't care less about the other party looking at her like a liar.
In the current situation, she seems to have no other way to make money.
Ji Ling took a deep breath before heading home.
Fifty yuan in foreign debts, after deducting the ten yuan I just earned, there is still a shortfall of thirty-eight five yuan.
I moved bricks for more than a month before going to college, and the money was paid back.
Hope is right in front of you, Ji Ling let out a deep breath, just as the corners of her lips raised to solve the problem, she heard a voice behind her, "Ji Ling."
Unfamiliar voice, I still know her.
Ji Ling froze, turned her head slowly, looked at the strange boy behind her, "You called me?"
The boy is not tall, slightly fat, and looks about the same age as Ji Ling, "Ji Ling, you said that your mother broke her leg and there is not enough money for hospitalization, and I will only lend you fifty yuan if you promised to have a date with me. For many months, you said that you were afraid of delaying the college entrance examination, now that we have all graduated, can you date me?"
Ji Ling's almond eyes are round.
How much money did the original owner cheat? How many people did you promise to date with others?
Ji Ling gritted her teeth and said, "The date is not there, I will pay back the money."
Xu saw that Ji Ling was furious, like a cow with red eyes, the boy didn't dare to refute, and let her go.
What happened next refreshed Ji Ling's understanding of the original owner.
All the way from school to home, she encountered seven or eight male classmates asking for debts one after another, with the same lame reason, either her father was seriously ill and hospitalized, or her mother had a broken leg and the family urgently needed money, and they all used dating as a temptation. Scattered together nearly five hundred dollars.
Ji's father's monthly salary is only forty-eight six yuan. One can imagine how much money five hundred yuan is in this era.
She really couldn't understand what the original owner borrowed so much money for, and where did the money go?
She only thought that the original owner was top-notch and arrogant, so she didn't know that so much mess was left behind.
Ji Ling shook her head vigorously, the most important thing now is how to pay back the money, otherwise so many people would go to their homes, Ji Ling was not the original owner, and her reputation of seducing male classmates to borrow money by her beauty would be ruined.
No valuables were found in the house, and the borrowed money disappeared. Ji Ling sighed at the IOU in the drawer, and immediately closed the drawer when she heard someone coming in.
Ji Yong said, "Xiao Ling, your eldest brother will come back from pulling coal in a while, so you come out and collect the things in the yard to make room."
"It doesn't have to be useful to go to college. If you have a work unit to get in, high school Chinese is enough. The number of college graduates assigned by our agricultural machinery company is not as good as I earn. It is more important for girls to find a capable husband in the future. .Liu Liu in your mother’s department store is the same age as you, has not graduated from junior high school, and has earned two years’ salary, so it’s not bad.”
“Young people spend the whole day holding their breath in the room. Young people must be energetic. If you don’t work hard now, you will have nothing in the future.”
Frontly, Ji's father persuaded his daughter, Ji Ling looked at her face in the mirror, finally put down the small mirror, opened the drawer and looked at a drawer of IOUs.
Don't say she has nothing, she has beauty! and IOUs
There are not many things in the yard, just the floor table and four chairs for eating. The father and daughter moved the things under the plum tree. Ji Jianhua hadn't come back yet, but Xu Fang was helped in with a pale face.
