Bravely Upholding Justice – 10.000 Yuan (3)
They thought that Jiang Xing did not learn well and was stabbed when he got into a fight outside. Some chatterboxes even made up stories that he used to be a good kid but now turned into a bad person and his life was over.
But now that they saw the 10,000 yuan reward, they wished they were the one who got stabbed with a knife instead.
10,000 yuan for one stab, that was a good deal! After all, sometimes when you work in the field, your foot might also get hit by the hoe. Not only do you not get money for it, but it also interferes with work.
Bravely upholding justice was nice.
Zhou Haiyang’s family was also one of the onlookers.
Zhou Haiyang’s father could be said to grow up with Jiang Xing, only a few years older than him. Seeing the sergeant appeasing Jiang Xing, wanting to put him on the newspaper to praise him and rewarding him with 10,000 yuan, he couldn’t help but envy him. “This kid Jiang Xing, I didn’t expect him to be so promising.”
When Zhou Haiyang’s mother heard it, she suddenly blew up, her heart filled with uneasiness and sourness. She immediately twisted her husband’s ear and pulled him back home. “What does it matter to you if others are promising? Quickly go home and work for me!”
“Promising, promising. Even that Jiang Xing can be promising!”
That old woman’s tail must be pointing at the sky!
And there was still that 10,000 yuan!
I want it!
After conveying his sympathy for Jiang Xing’s injury, the police officers left. Before they left, they left him some tonics to recover his health.
Jiang Xing opened it and took a look, then took out a packet of powdered sugar and gave it to Jiang Xiaoman. “Eat this and go play.”
Jiang Xiaoman took it, opened the packet, and licked the powder.
Sweet, it was so sweet. Her eyes immediately lit up, and she concentrated on eating the sugar.
Jiang Xing’s reward of 10,000 yuan was not warm in his hands yet, but it was already confiscated by Jiang Xiumei.
She said, ”I have to hold on to this money for you so you don’t go around blowing it everywhere, then not a single cent would go where it should. Before even talking about anything else, I borrowed 2,000 from the auntie next door. When you were in danger, everyone pitched in to help. You can’t forget this, you have to pay back the money.”
Repaying what you’re owed is how it should be. Jiang Xing naturally had nothing to say.
Knowing that the kid managed to escape the danger, Jiang Xing had no regrets. He laughed with his banner of [Bravely Upholding Justice], secretly feeling happy when he remembered the neighbors’ shocked gazes of disbelief. Once upon a time, he also managed to be the target of praise and envy.
The mental satisfaction made him ecstatic. As for worldly materials like money, whatever. A great man like him didn’t need it.
Jiang Xing waved his hand, “I will listen to Mom.”
With the money in her hands, Jiang Xiumei felt a lot more at ease. She didn’t have the heart to spend the money. If she could, she would have liked to find a place to enshrine it and put a few sticks of incense on it every day, for future generations to look at, solemnly and respectfully.
After all, this money was obtained in exchange for a life. Wasn’t it really expensive?
Jiang Xiumei strongly gritted her teeth but didn’t do it. Everyone did not have an easy life, she must pay back the money first. After finding a good place to hide the money, she took out two thousand yuan.
“Xiaoman, look after your uncle for a bit, I’ll go and repay the money.” Not only must she pay back the money, but she must also bring her a little thank you gift, so her old friend could also share in some of the good fortunes.
Jiang Xiaoman’s mouth was covered with a layer of white powder, looking like a beard. Amidst her busy schedule, she raised her head and responded, blowing the powdered sugar with her breath and causing her to sneeze repeatedly.
Right at this moment, the system suddenly issued a task.
[Task:
Try to find a way to avoid paying back the money.
Bad guys should act like bad guys.
Reward: 20 points]
