Chapter 44: Just keep the pretty boy, didn’t you see it? "...Hey, who asked you to distribute flyers here?"
Zhang Jiefang sighed bitterly as she watched the old man walking away. Then she heard someone behind her shouting loudly at her from a distance. She followed the call and found that the "gas tank" selling braised vegetables actually asked the urban management to find him. Come over.
"Can't you post it here? Oh, I don't know, then I won't post it."
Zhang Jiefang happily stuffed the flyer back into the non-woven bag and strode towards the supermarket without even stumbling. The braised vegetable seller thought that Zhang Jiefang would definitely quarrel with the urban management, but now she looked disappointed. .
Similar to the entrance to the wet market, there are not many people picking up flyers at the entrance of the supermarket, and most of them sneer at the price of 399. When Zhang Jiefang went home, at least one-third of the bag of flyers she took out was left.
Zhang Jiefang's first day of handing out leaflets was a failure. However, she was not discouraged or discouraged. She sent them out the next day. A week passed like this, but there was no shortage of leaflets piled behind the door. She called Naturally, Zhang Jiefang's heart was so hot that even the cold water cooled down a lot, and it was obvious that she couldn't do anything anymore.
"Hey, Jiwen'er, school has started, right? I saw your weather forecast yesterday, and it said that the temperature will drop in the past two days. How about you... Oh, okay, I'll transfer you there in a moment... Hey, okay, Then go back to the dormitory and rest... Hey, okay... Oh, by the way, I mailed you a pair of shoes, you..."
Zhang Jiefang went home directly after shopping for groceries that day and did not continue to hand out flyers. She was sitting at the door of the kitchen peeling sweet peas when her son suddenly called her.
Since going to Aranya a year ago, Tang Jiwen called Zhang Jiefang on New Year's Eve and hung up after only saying a few words. Zhang Jiefang could only find out what he did every day through Moments.
This phone call was the first after the New Year, and Zhang Jiefang was quite happy. However, after Tang Jiwen finished saying what he wanted to say, he didn't want to listen to Zhang Jiefang's nagging anymore, so he hung up the phone directly. Zhang Jiefang looked down at her phone, and Time cannot hide the loss.
"Ji Wen'er has just spent all his living expenses right after school started?" Jiang Xiaoping happened to come back from outside, listened to it, and asked casually.
When Zhang Jiefang was still in Pingshui Tangquan, Jiang Xiaoping discovered that her son didn't call easily, but if he took the initiative to call, there was only one possibility, and that was that he had no money.
"How much living expenses do you give him per month now?" Jiang Xiaoping asked while changing her shoes.
"I remember when He'er went to college, it was 1500 or 1300, and she couldn't even spend it. But that was more than ten years ago, and now it has to be almost doubled, right?"
"I gave him 2500 a month...a little bit, right?"
"2500 is enough. Boys don't have much to spend money on. Even if it's not enough, you can still earn it by working part-time on weekends."
Jiang Xiaoping pulled on her slippers and walked to the sink next to the toilet to wash her hands. "But since we have agreed on how much it will be, that's how much it will be. Don't let him too much. How can you just give it to him if he wants it?"
"Jiwen said it's a friend's birthday, so we can all celebrate together. It's a special occasion!"
Zhang Jiefang couldn't help but defend her son. As she spoke, she transferred 1000 yuan to Tang Jiwen. Tang Jiwen received it instantly and sent back a funny expression of "Thank you, boss". Zhang Jiefang couldn't help laughing, and then gave it to her son again. He sent a voice message asking if he had received the pair of shoes sent to him and whether the size was suitable.
"...Jiwen doesn't know yet?" Jiang Xiaoping brought a small stool over and peeled peas with Zhang Jiefang.
Zhang Jiefang put her cell phone into her apron pocket and nodded lightly, "It's useless to tell him. On the contrary... let him worry about it together. Sister Xiaoping, you peel it off first, and I'll go and massage my grandma. one time."
"Hey, go ahead." Jiang Xiaoping finished peeling the peas, cleaned up briefly, then got up and went to the balcony to find Jiang He.
Jiang He was twisting himself like a snake on the rocking chair in the corner of the balcony. Jiang Xiaoping felt her back ached just looking at it, but she was enjoying herself and was still reading there in the sun with a contented look on her face.
"What are you looking at?"
Jiang He silently turned the back of the book in Jiang Xiaoping's direction. When Jiang Xiaoping discovered that the title of the book was actually "Change in a Moment: Feeling Anxious at Every Turn", Jiang Xiaoping didn't know how to evaluate it for a moment.
"I think...sometimes I'm too busy and prone to anxiety. What do you think, He'er?"
"I think it's good to have some leisure time. I'm enjoying my rare gap year. At this moment, my whole body and mind are very calm." Jiang He closed the book, stretched himself out, and then sat cross-legged, pretending to be affectionate. He smiled at Jiang Xiaoping.
"Let's just help with the bath, I think..." Jiang Xiaoping just started to start, but Jiang He interrupted her.
"Correct me, it's your job to help with bathing. 'Jie Ping helps with bathing', just by hearing the name, you know it has nothing to do with me."
"Okay, can't you help us Jieping help with bathing? You see, you, Grandma Qin, are the only client now. It's useless to hand out flyers. Mom knows you have nothing to say about this, such as marketing promotions, private Domain traffic is like a toy in your hands, and you can make it lively without spending any money." Jiang Xiaoping smiled extremely flatteringly at Jiang He.
"Stop it, sugar-coated bullets don't work with me." Jiang He mainly said "stubborn". When Jiang Xiaoping saw that she was about to pick up the book, she took it away.
"He'er, listen to mom. Actually, this matter, which I shouldn't say, is your Aunt Jiefang's privacy...it's just...that's right, she really needs money now."
It was rare for Jiang Xiaoping to be so hesitant. Jiang He suddenly sounded the alarm and was about to get up from the rocking chair. Jiang Xiaoping had been prepared for her and sat directly on his lap. The rocking chair was struggling to bear the weight of the two of them. The weight makes a tooth-aching crunching sound.
"Hey, you want to crush me to death? Get up quickly...ah, my God, my legs...I, I promise not to walk, why not!"
Jiang He had no choice but to beg for mercy. Jiang Xiaoping then put her hands on the armrests and raised her buttocks a little. Jiang He immediately moved to the side and Jiang Xiaoping sat down. As a result, Jiang He let out another shrill scream, "Ah, you are pressing me down." I'm meaty! Jiang Xiaoping quickly pushed herself up again. After struggling for a while, mother and daughter finally managed to squeeze into a rocking chair.
"You told me, don't go out and talk nonsense."
Hearing this, Jiang He rolled his eyes at Jiang Xiaoping in silence. Jiang Xiaoping then remembered that since Jiang He came to her, he had at most accompanied Liang Xiujing to recuperate, and then he went to Zhang Enmin's house twice. I'm afraid even how many households lived on this floor. I don’t know, she has no place to talk about it.
"Your Aunt Jiefang was born last year...no, it was the year before last. At the end of the year, she was deceived by someone. It was the kind of 'pig killing plate' on the Internet. You must know that, right? The house she lives in now has been The mortgage is out, and if the 5 million is not repaid within five years, the house will be taken away."
Jiang He looked at her mother hesitantly. To be honest, she didn't believe it. Of course, she had read a lot about "Pig Killing Plate" on the Internet. She knew that being cheated had nothing to do with age, education, or IQ. The other party's fraud The scripts have been refined over time, and the chance of being deceived once encountered is almost 100%.
But she never thought that someone around her would be deceived, not to mention that Zhang Jiefang looked happy every day, and could not see the pain and despair after being deceived.
"How did you know? Did Aunt Jiefang tell you?"
"How is that possible? I only found out about it when a debt collection call came to the store near the Chinese New Year last year, saying that she hadn't paid back the money for several months... It was just a coincidence."
"Hey, is this the Pingshui Tangquan Huaihai Road store?"
The front desk happened to be busy that day, and the store manager wasn't there either. Jiang Xiaoping took over for a while. The caller was probably a pretty young man, his voice was quite magnetic, his Mandarin was standard, and his tone of voice sounded a bit administrative or customer service. Meaning, Jiang Xiaoping thought it was a big group order.
"This is Pingshui Hot Spring. Do you need anything?"
"Is Zhang Jiefang an employee of your store? On October 2020, 10, she mortgaged her property. The property address is 12, Building 1, Phase 18, Chunhua Community, Jiangyuan Road, Dongchi District, a staircase house with a construction area of 402 square meters. The company has a loan of million yuan. Up to now, the total amount owed with interest and late fees is 120 million... let’s call it 149 million. She has not repaid the loan on time in the past two months, and she has not answered the calls from our salesperson. You See if you can help our company contact her?"
Jiang Xiaoping remained silent for a long time. The amount of information in these few sentences was too much, but the other party was obviously very experienced and thoughtfully gave Jiang Xiaoping enough time for her to respond and think.
"Well..." Jiang Xiaoping had so many questions in her mind that it almost exploded. It took her a long time to say, "She... why did she take a loan from you?"
"You're a pretty girl, didn't you notice? Hahaha... We didn't notice it at the time either. We thought it was Sister Sun who was in a hurry to get money to save her life!"
