"Oh."
Li Xiuqin was stunned for a moment.
Coming back to her senses, she said, "You see, I was so busy that I almost forgot. Thank you for reminding me."
After that, she followed the accountant to the desk, opened the account book, and looked at the account book. Only the leaders at the highest level of the village and the township gave 2,000 yuan, and most of the others were 5 yuan, rarely more than 10 yuan. Even on the entire account book, the total was less than 5,000 yuan.
She complained insincerely, "It's just a small amount of money, and it's all eaten back."
After that, she saw the half-immortal beside her and said angrily, "There are so many people who come to eat and drink for free. Isn't the Lei family going to lose money this time?"
At this time, the half-immortal was also helping with the service. Hearing the words "free eating and drinking", he was shocked, and he was staring at him when he spoke. Did he understand that he was referring to him?
He hurriedly approached and said, "A gift of goose feathers from a thousand miles away is a gift of small size, but the thought is great. Everyone who comes is a guest, and we just want to have a good time."
Li Xiuqin said contemptuously, "The gift is small, but the thought is great? You are not afraid of talking. Didn't you give the gift? Didn't you come with a big mouth?"
Some people couldn't help laughing.
Li Xiuqin continued to raise her voice and said, "I see you dig through your pockets and take out ten yuan, right?"
The conversation between the two people immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone was familiar with Banxian. They all knew that he was alone and had been setting up a stall at the gate of Leiyin Temple for a long time. He relied on divination and fortune-telling, and his mouth was just to make a living.
Whenever there was a wedding or funeral in the neighborhood, he would come to join in the fun, say good luck and flattery, and eat and drink for free.
He was a disabled person, so everyone didn't dislike him. On the contrary, the scene was really less lively without him.
At this time, everyone was interested.
Focusing his attention on the two of them...
Banxian cursed inwardly: "You look down on others, just wait and see how I will deal with you." He suddenly had an idea and deliberately said suspiciously: "Don't talk big and spend little money. Then I want to see how much you can give as a gift?"
A straightforward woman deliberately provoked trouble and said: "Li Xiuqin has become rich in the city and is also the old neighbor of the old principal. Banxian, can you calculate how much she can give as a gift this time? If you calculate it right, I will treat you to a feast at my house for three days. How about it?"
Banxian counted in his mind and showed two fingers.
Constantly changing, representing 11 yuan and 318 yuan respectively.
Li Xiuqin knew that the half-immortal was a brat, so she cursed herself as a bitch and suppressed her anger, saying, "Me? How much? Even if you rack your brains, even if you ask the gods, they can't figure it out."
The half-immortal challenged, "Do you doubt my ability to calculate with my fingers? Or do you want to go against the will of heaven? I'm all ears."
The two people were arguing with each other.
More and more people were watching.
Li Xiuqin said slowly: "How much? Then I have to see the admission letter in person before I can make a decision."
Banxian was surprised and asked: "What do you mean? Do you suspect that the admission letter is fake? I think you are just trying to get out of it."
After saying that, he blinked and blinked his eyes, and then he had an idea and continued: "Tell me, if the admission letter is real, do you want to take on all the tuition fees for Tianlai?"
Li Xiuqin vowed: "If I see the admission letter and it is confirmed that it is a real prestigious university, I will pay this amount according to what you said."
Banxian looked at Li Xiuqin imitating him, showed two fingers, and said disapprovingly: "It's just 11 yuan, why are you so mysterious, acting like a savior, and pretending to hurt people."
Li Xiuqin raised her voice to an octave and said word by word: "Listen to me, I will pay 11,000 yuan!"
"Huh?"
Everyone exclaimed in surprise, their mouths wide open, and their eyes focused on Li Xiuqin's face.
This 11,000 yuan is not a small amount. In the barren mountainous area, there are only a few millionaires in the surrounding area, which is something that people dream of but cannot reach.
When Li Xiuqin was young, she was unwilling to be lonely in the mountainous area. She went out to the world and was kept by someone in her early years. Otherwise, even if her daughter Fangfang was admitted to a prestigious university, she would not be able to afford Fangfang's tuition. Her young love affairs have been widely spread by the villagers.
80% of the people in the village know Li Xiuqin inside and out, and everyone started whispering below...
At this time, Grandpa Lei listened carefully in the crowd and knew that she didn't know the inside story of Alai's make-up exam. She was doubting the authenticity of the notice and wanted to embarrass Alai and herself in front of everyone.
So he walked over and said with a smile: "Thank you, Xiuqin, I appreciate your kindness. Don't argue with Banxian. He has been trying to help you and trick you. You can't see that."
Li Xiuqin said confidently: "I have been in the world for many years and have seen a lot. Can't I see the trivialities and tricks of Banxian? I, Xiuqin, keep my word. I have made a promise for this special gift. It's just a matter of how much."
Grandpa Lei smiled and replied: "Okay, just show your kindness. Everyone is polite. I came here to say congratulations. I am not looking for money, but for happiness."
Li Xiuqin thought to herself, this old guy is really cunning, trying to smooth things over? I won't let him.
Thinking of this, Naken gave up and showed his trump card, saying with a savior's expression: "Think about it, I have watched Alai grow up, and considering the relationship between neighbors for many years, I can't just watch you waste money and go to a fake fake university, right?"
As soon as this was said, everyone was shocked.
"The top scorer in the college entrance examination is fake?"
"So it's a fake fake university?"
"How could the old principal do this?"
There was a commotion below, and people started to talk about it.
At this time, the village leader was also confused when he heard this and came over.
He said seriously, "Li Xiuqin, you must keep your word. This matter is very serious. You can't make groundless statements. You must be responsible for your words. Otherwise, I, the village chief, will hold you accountable for the crime of spreading rumors and slandering others."
Li Xiuqin thought to herself, you are just a small official village chief, living in the mountains, poor as a rock, and the share money is only 20 yuan. You are still showing off, just taking advantage of your power and talking to me like this.
He said self-righteously, "Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back."
The township leader told Alai to take out the notice immediately.
The township leader took the red admission notice, called the school according to the phone number provided on it, and made a detailed consultation. Then he called the education department in charge to confirm it.
Holding the admission letter high, he announced: "Everyone listen to me. After the investigation just now, there is no doubt that Lei Tianlai was admitted by the famous university in Nancheng."
After that, he handed the letter to Li Xiuqin and smiled: "Keep your promise."
Everyone waited and saw how she would end up...
Li Xiuqin looked at the letter again and again, like a dream, and still couldn't believe it was true. She told her lover Li Shiren the information on the letter on her mobile phone for analysis, and he confirmed it again.
Seeing her in a daze, Banxian smiled sarcastically: "Ms. Li Xiuqin, please give me a gift."
Li Xiuqin came back to her senses and suddenly remembered that she only brought 400 yuan. She bought fruit for her mother on the way and spent 20 yuan. She was dumbfounded.
Slowly opened her wallet, but only 380 yuan was found.
The half-immortal chuckled, and immediately became more energetic. He called everyone to watch and said proudly: "Everyone, look, count it, there are only 380 yuan. As expected, my half-immortal was right."
