Just when Zhang Yu was shocked, Zhao Feng opened the door and walked in.
"Xiaoyu, come out to eat!"
Before he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the banknotes piled half full on the table.
His eyes suddenly widened, and he subconsciously turned around and closed the door.
He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, and looked a little dazed: "That's...a lot of money!"
After a moment, Zhao Feng struggled to control himself and looked away from the pile of money.
When he looked at Zhang Yu again, his eyes were a little strange, as if he didn't expect Zhang Yu to have such an unknown hobby. He turned around and showed an expression that I didn't understand the most, but I understood.
The look in his eyes made Zhang Yu feel a little confused. He frowned in confusion. He didn't know what strange place Zhao Feng had imagined.
Before Zhang Yu could explain, Zhao Feng urged: "Put it away quickly. I'm jealous of this money. If you keep it in front of me, I can't control the urge to grab it."
Zhang Yu said nothing and silently gathered the money together.
At this moment, Zhao Feng could no longer hold back his doubts and asked directly: "Xiaoyu, you won't take out all the money in the passbook, right? Or is this the job of a consultant to make money?"
Zhao Feng said that he was moved. He pointed at himself and asked tentatively: "Xiaoyu, do you think if I start studying now, can I become a consultant like you before I am thirty?"
Finally realizing what he was misunderstanding, Zhang Yu rubbed his swollen head and told him the origin of the money.
Zhao Feng looked in disbelief: "Really, you didn't fool me?"
Zhang Yu rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "What's the benefit of me fooling you? Besides, when have I ever lied to you?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Feng subconsciously retorted: "You have lied to me many times. Last time you..."
"Really, I really didn't lie to you this time." Seeing that he was about to settle old scores, Zhang Yu hurriedly interrupted him.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!" Zhang Yu interrupted his talk of going over old accounts, and Zhao Feng didn't want to hold on to it any longer. He looked up and down at the dilapidated radio in front of him. He didn't find anything wrong, and turned his eyes to Zhang Yu again.
After looking at it carefully, Zhang Yu almost went crazy, and then sighed: "Xiaoyu, why do you think you are so lucky? Why can't I encounter such a good thing?"
"You're out of luck!"
Zhao Feng retorted: "Nonsense! I'm lucky!"
"Ha!" Zhang Yu didn't say anything, just gave him a look and let him understand.
I'm lucky enough to meet those weird women one after another, especially the lunatic Ye Lan.
"Also...for those few times, I...I was very lucky the rest of the time." Zhao Feng couldn't help but defend himself, but it would have been better if he had more confidence in his words.
The two brothers joked a few times, and then turned their attention to the money in front of them.
Zhao Feng's face became more serious: "Xiaoyu, what are you going to do with the money?"
"I don't know either." Zhang Yu rubbed his brows, feeling really worried.
Logically speaking, if you buy it and let it go, the money will be regarded as missed by him. If he really wants to accept it, no one will say anything.
But he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. In the past, he just picked up the leaks openly and honestly. He took those things with a clear conscience, but this money was different. If this money was really saved by others throughout his life, he would have to sleep at night if he was greedy.
Unreachable.
Brothers, you look at me and I look at you, but you still can't make a decision.
"How about letting my dad come over?" Zhao Feng asked tentatively.
"OK!"
Although this money is quite a lot, if you really think about it, he is not short of it.
After Zhao Wenzhuo was called in, he looked at the money on the table and was shocked for a moment.
He pointed to the radio on the table and said, "Where did this money come from?"
Zhang Yu nodded.
Zhao Wenzhuo looked at his nephew with surprise and sighed: "You are so lucky!"
"Okay, I understand. Give me the radio. You keep the money first. I'll find someone to check the origin of the money."
After saying that, he picked up the radio and left.
The two brothers who stayed in place looked at the money on the table, looked at each other, and said in a tacit understanding: "How about we count it?"
Next is the money counting part that everyone likes to see.
"One, two...one hundred and two, one hundred and three...Xiaoyu, I have a total of 1,220 here, what about your side?"
"I have more here, 1640." Zhang Yu put down the money in his hand and raised his head and said.
"Hiss!" Zhao Feng couldn't help but gasped.
"1220 plus 1640, 2860 yuan, Xiaoyu, did we count correctly?"
"No." After getting the specific number, Zhang Yu couldn't help being shocked. He thought it was more than a thousand at first, but he didn't expect there to be so many.
More than two thousand and nearly three thousand yuan, this is not a small amount of money. No wonder he squeezed it out after turning on the radio.
With so much money, I don’t know who hid it in the radio.
"Xiaoyu, please put this money away first, let's go eat." Compared to Zhang Yu, Zhao Feng was more open-minded.
Anyway, the money is in their hands now. If they can trace it, they can trace it. If they can’t trace it, they can’t lose. So why are they worried?
"Let's go." Zhang Yu didn't care much about the money. After locking it in the drawer, he went out to eat.
At this time, the rain outside the house gradually subsided, and the air began to be filled with the fragrance of earth.
After the rain, the weather became much cooler.
The family sits around the table and eats together. You talk and I laugh, and the atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable.
In the following days, Zhao Wenzhuo also mentioned the money twice, but the final source has not yet been found.
Based on some information found by his uncle, Zhang Yu also made some guesses about the origin of the money. What he first thought was whether the money was hidden by the elders of the family, the young man who sold the radio for scrap.
Because he learned from the gatekeeper of the scrap collection station that the young man's parents had recently fallen ill and passed away one after another.
Zhang Yu wondered if the money was hidden by his parents at home, because his children were not around when he left, so he did not have time to explain to them where the money was hidden.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law above did not like this younger brother, and in addition to the fact that he stole the family's bicycle but ignored it, they felt that he had taken advantage of him, and that his parents were partial to him, so they must have left a lot of things for him in private.
Moreover, the couple was even more worried that he would still do nothing as before and cause trouble outside all day long, which would inevitably drag them down as brother and sister-in-law in the end.
More importantly, they feel that if young people don't have jobs, they will definitely suffer if the two families live together.
So as soon as his parents left, the young man's eldest brother and sister-in-law couldn't wait to separate the family.
