Chapter 20:
Handsome guy, who are you looking for?
Ji Zhile was so excited, he didn't expect that he would gain so much from coming out tonight.
It turned out that only three or four mineral water bottles could be found in a trash can, but tonight he found eight in a trash can!
The garbage bags brought out couldn't fit, so Ji Zhile imitated the movements of those old ladies who picked up bottles, unscrewed the bottle cap, put the bottle on the ground and stomped it flat, and then put it in his pocket.
Sure enough, a lot of bottles could be filled in this way. Ji Zhile was so happy that he was going crazy, thinking that he could earn five yuan tonight. If Xiao Yuan was here, they would definitely be able to find more bottles. Unfortunately, he is the only one now.
But Ji Zhile didn't dare to let Uncle Security see him. Uncle Security knew him, and if he saw him picking up bottles, he would definitely tell his mother.
While avoiding people, Ji Zhile was picking up bottles. When a car passed by on the road, and when the lights came on, Ji Zhile quickly hid behind a big tree.
Covered by the shade of the trees, he poked his head out quietly and took a look outside.
This glance surprised Ji Zhile, and he blinked in disbelief, is that Dad?
Ji Zhile carefully looked at it several times, and finally decided that at that time, he only had one thought in his mind, there were so many bottles here, if Dad picked them up with him, he might earn ten yuan tonight!
Seeing that his father was about to leave, Ji Zhile ran out immediately.
The surprise of meeting dilutes many others in an instant, but Ji Zhile quickly regained his senses, and warmly invited his father to pick up bottles with him.
Dad seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and then asked him, "Zhile, what are you doing here?"
Ji Zhile said naturally: "I'm picking up bottles."
He opened the garbage bag, shook it, and said proudly, "Dad, look at how much I picked up."
Dad seemed to take a deep breath and said, "Zhile, don't pick it up, I brought you back an empty bottle."
Ji Zhile's eyes widened: "Where is it?"
Dad took him by the hand, took him into the car, and took out a cardboard box from the trunk, which was full of beautiful bottles of different colors.
Ji Zhile's gaze was attracted at once, the pattern on the bottle body shone on the street lamp, it was colorful and beautiful.
Ji Zhile suddenly felt a little bit reluctant. It's a pity to sell such a beautiful bottle, but this thought only stayed in his head for a second, and he resolutely opened his garbage bag and said, "Dad, put the Put them in the bottle I picked up."
Their family is already very poor, no matter how beautiful the bottle is, it is just a bottle, a bottle that can be sold for money.
Dad put the bottles together, and Ji Zhile took a look, one garbage bag was already full.
"Isn't that enough?" Dad asked him.
Ji Zhile said: "Of course not enough, the more the better."
Dad frowned, and his voice was a little low, as if he was talking to himself, "So many bottles are needed for the kindergarten to do handwork."
"Zhile, let's go home first."
Ji Zhile only brought one garbage bag with him when he went out today, and it was already full, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
Ji Zhile thought, waiting will be back home, he can bring a few more garbage bags and go out to pick up bottles with his father.
Dad is home now, and his salary of 20 yuan a day is gone, so he has to work harder to earn money.
When the car was approaching the villa, Ji Zhile was about to get out of the car, and he said seriously: "Dad, I have very important things to do."
Dad also got out of the car with him, and Ji Zhile took his precious garbage bag, walked to the garden outside the villa, and skillfully found the place where the bottle was hidden yesterday, he tore open the dwarf tree, and then stared wide Eye.
What about the bottle he hid yesterday!
Ji Zhile immediately looked for the side, but there was no one, and he touched it carefully, but it was still not there.
How could it be, Ji Zhile's eyes were blank, and he felt that the sky was about to collapse. He hid a lot of bottles here yesterday, why are they gone?
"What's wrong, Zhile?"
Dad's voice made Ji Zhile burst into tears, and he said aggrievedly: "The bottle I hid here yesterday is gone."
Dad said very gently: "Maybe the cleaning aunt in the community thought it was garbage taken away."
"It's not trash, I picked it up." Ji Zhile said.
Dad touched his head: "What bottle do you need, Dad will buy it for you."
Ji Zhile shook her head with tears in her eyes: "I want my bottle."
How can I buy it? Their family has no money.
"Okay, don't cry, go home, there should be empty bottles at home if you need them."
"Now, do you want to take the bottle back with you?"
Ji Zhile thought for a while, but still shook her head: "I can't let my mother see it."
Ji Jiangzhou, who brought his son home, felt that everything was weird tonight.
The young son who loves cleanliness was looking for bottles in the trash can, and put the bottles he brought back together. Ji Jiangzhou took it for granted that these were the manual requirements of the kindergarten.
Kindergarten had a similar homework, waste utilization, Ji Zhile used newspapers to make trash cans.
Is it just that so many mineral water bottles are needed this time? The first moment he saw Ji Zhile, Ji Jiangzhou already sensed something was wrong.
But if this assumption is put aside, Ji Jiangzhou really can't think of any other reason to make his youngest son come out to dig through the trash can at night.
"Why can't my mother see it?" Ji Jiangzhou asked.
The last time he went home was a month ago. Ji Zhile and Si Tian had a very cold relationship, but Ning Yi relied on Si Tian very much.
During this month, the relationship between Ji Zhile and Si Tian seems to have improved a lot.
Ji Zhile gave him a strange look: "Dad, don't you know the reason?"
Ji Jiangzhou was puzzled, what should he know?
Ji Zhile hesitated for a while, but hid the garbage bag full of bottles in his hand in the garden, and covered it with some leaves.
Ji Zhile said in a low voice, "Father, our family is very poor and has no money."
Ji Jiangzhou:?
He suspected that he was having auditory hallucinations because he didn't sleep last night, and he wanted to ask a few more questions. When the lights outside the villa came on, a sweet female voice sounded: "Ji Zhile, go home quickly."
When Si Tian was playing with her mobile phone in the living room, she heard Ji Zhile's voice outside, but she didn't know what Ji Zhile was playing, so she never entered the room.
After waiting for two minutes, Si Tian finally stood up and opened the door to call for someone.
but…
Who is that man next to Ji Zhile?
Judging by Si Tian's picky eyes, the man's appearance is also beyond reproach, with excellent facial features, excellent eyebrows and eyes, the shape of the eyes is long, it is a very beautiful red phoenix eye, the bridge of the nose is high and straight, the light is cast from the side, covering the bridge of the nose Living in a small shadow, he looks very scumbag.
But his suit was straight, his shirt was white, and the top button was tightly buttoned, and he exuded a strong aura of elite abstinence.
Si Tianxin let out a thud, this **** man was made according to her liking!
She put down her mobile phone, put her hair behind her ears, her lips curled up slightly, her voice was ambiguous, and the ending sounded up and down: "Handsome guy, who are you looking for?"
Ji Zhile's eyes widened: "Mom, this is Dad!"
Si Tian:?
! ! !
Her husband in name, the God of Wealth in reality, only loves good men who work and don't come home.
Si Tian struggled to associate these nouns with the man in front of her who was very suitable for her liking, and stubbornly maintained a smile on her face, trying to rationalize everything.
"Oh, long time no see, I have a surprise for you."
Behind the scenes, Si Tian clenched the phone so hard that her finger bones turned pale.
Ji Jiangzhou took Ji Zhile's hand and walked into the villa. When passing by Si Tian, Ji Jiangzhou stopped and looked at her sideways: "I'm very surprised."
Si Tian: ...
God, let her die.
It was not easy to find a top quality man, but it turned out to be her husband.
Husband is her God of Wealth, God of Wealth can't be imagined, so it is suitable to take it up to worship, complete the work given by God of Wealth, and get a lot of money easily, no matter how much the relationship is, Si Tian doesn't want it, she can't let it be good The money is related to feelings, otherwise it will be easy to lose money and money.
Si Tian is a person who is not greedy and only wants money.
Ji Jiangzhou took Ji Zhile's hand into the villa, and saw the snacks on the small tea table in front of the sofa in the living room at a glance.
Cut the fruit into balls, drank half a cup of milk tea, and there are still a few sticks of barbecue left in the disposable lunch box...
Ok…
Ji Jiangzhou cast his eyes on Si Tian who was standing beside him. His son was digging through the trash cans outside to pick up bottles, while his mother was eating snacks and playing with her mobile phone at home. It seemed a bit too weird.
Si Tian laughed awkwardly, it's normal to eat something while playing with her mobile phone, it's normal for modern people to order takeaway...
Just as she was about to explain, Ji Zhile had already voluntarily said: "Mom has eaten this, Dad, you can't eat it."
Ji Zhile saw her father staring at the food on the coffee table, thinking that it was her father who wanted to eat, and immediately reminded that the food that others have eaten cannot be eaten, and...
"Father, what my mother eats is so bad, please tell her not to eat it."
Ji Jiangzhou was silent, and after a while he said, "It's hard to eat?"
Si Tian continued to smile awkwardly: "It's not bad, I like it."
Ji Zhile shook Ji Jiangzhou's hand and said, "I tasted it, and it was terrible, even worse than carrots, but my mother kept eating it."
Si Tian looked at her good son, just wanting him to shut up. Just listening to Ji Zhile's description, those who didn't know thought she could really eat without being picky.
But that's not the case at all, she's not a pig, it's just that she likes spicy food and Ji Zhile doesn't!
Ji Jiangzhou also knew Ji Zhile's taste, so he said, "It's not that it tastes bad, it's that what mom likes is different from yours."
Obviously Ji Zhile still can't understand, because he doesn't like carrots, and neither do the kindergarten children.
Ji Zhile could only think that her father was lying to herself, and her mother was also lying, saying that their family was rich, but turned around and ate bad and cheap food.
"Dad, don't lie to me, I know all about it."
Ji Jiangzhou: "What do you know?"
Ji Zhile looked at Si Tian and shut his mouth. He couldn't tell his mother that his father's salary was very low. His mother would be angry, and he wanted to hide it like Xiao Yuan.
Seeing that Ji Zhile didn't speak, Ji Jiangzhou looked at Si Tian, who was very obedient, and immediately came over and sat down: "What's the matter?"
Ji Jiangzhou decided to let Si Tian know about it: "Zhi Le was picking up bottles outside just now."
Ji Zhile's reaction was faster than Si Tian's: "Dad, how could you tell Mom!"
His eyes widened, filled with suspicious accusations.
Ji Jiangzhou's voice was gentle: "We are a family, there is nothing we can't tell each other."
Si Tian frowned: "Ji Zhile, are you picking up bottles outside again?"
Si Tian explained: "I took them to the amusement park on weekends, and Ji Zhile asked for an empty bottle."
"What are you going to do with the bottle?" Si Tian didn't ask Ji Zhile at that time, because she felt that children can have their own secrets. If Ji Zhile took the initiative to tell her, she would be happy to listen, and she wouldn't if he didn't tell her. Ask more.
But tonight, under the pretense of going to the children's playground in the community, Ji Zhile actually went to pick up bottles, which made Si Tian feel that she must know Ji Zhile's secret.
Ji Zhile pouted, and wanted to hide it: "I just want it."
"You're lying again." Si Tian raised her voice slightly, and her gaze fell directly on Ji Zhile's face.
Ji Zhile wrapped his fingers helplessly, he looked at his father, but his father just held his hand and didn't speak for him.
For a moment, Ji Zhile felt extremely wronged, obviously he was helping his father keep a secret, but his father exposed it himself, causing him to be criticized by his mother.
Ji Zhile slammed her father's hand away, tears pooled in her eyes: "I hate my father!"
Ji Jiangzhou, who was suddenly hated by his son:?
He obviously didn't do anything...
Ji Zhile wiped her eyes with her hands, and mustered up the courage to say loudly, "Mom, I want to tell you a secret."
He was cruel and closed his eyes: "I know our family is very poor, and my father's daily salary is only 20 yuan!"
