Wu You
When Lin Yi returned to the shop, it was already past the peak meal time.
But Lin Yi unexpectedly discovered that there were several large reinforced cardboard boxes at the entrance of the small shop.
Each carton has a different label for recycling different waste products.
Lin Yi glanced at the cardboard boxes, some contained plastic bottles, some contained old books and torn newspapers, and there was another box containing a few worn out clothes, but they were not damaged and looked wearable.
Lin Yi rubbed his chin, except for Ji Qingyan, no one seemed to have the guts to put these things in front of his shop.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi dialed the phone.
"Did you put the things in front of the store?"
"Yeah, I asked someone to send it over, so that I can help them collect more things." Ji Qingyan said:
"I don't have much to do today, and it will be over later."
"Row."
The business in the store was not busy in the afternoon, and Lin Yi sat in the store in a daze, bored.
Just going on like this day after day is not an option, when will the ultimate reward of the system come!
In the afternoon, when Lin Yi was busy, Ji Qingyan Xing walked in from the outside.
"Lin Yi, come quickly, we have collected a lot of things, I think it is worth at least 100 yuan."
Lin Yi glanced at Ji Qingyan, he couldn't laugh or cry and said:
"Who's rags are so valuable, you tell me, and I'll pick up the rags too."
"Ah? There are so many things, isn't it worth 100 yuan?"
"It can be sold for 20 if you die."
"No, so little?"
"It's so little, it may not be enough for you to buy a pair of socks."
Ji Qingyan followed Lin Yi back to the back kitchen, and said dejectedly, "Then their daily income may not even be 100 yuan."
"Not necessarily, if you meet kind-hearted people, you can sell more."
"But even if it can be sold for 100 yuan, it seems that it is not enough to live in a city like Zhonghai."
"Didn't I say it all, this is life, and some things can't be helped."
"Then tell me, I'll give them a little subsidy for Dongdong to go to school, and give them a house to improve their lives. What do you think?"
Lin Yi held Ji Qingyan's lovely face.
"It's okay to do good deeds, but there is a problem, you have to see it clearly." Lin Yi said:
"You think Dongdong's family is miserable, but in fact, there are people who are worse than them. No matter how rich we are, we can't help everyone."
"elder sister……"
While Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan were talking, a small head poked in from outside the door.
Ji Qingyan came out from the back kitchen and found that it was Wang Dongdong.
"Dongdong is here."
Seeing Wang Dongdong, Ji Qingyan welcomed him in.
"Why did you come here by yourself, where is your grandma?"
"My grandma was picking up bottles at school, and she didn't come over."
"Come on, my sister will take you to the back kitchen, where there are delicious food."
"hey-hey……"
Wang Dongdong laughed honestly, "Sister, I'm not hungry, I'm here to bring you something."
"Huh? Give me something?"
Excitedly, Wang Dongdong took out two apples from his pocket.
"Just now, my grandma and I went to sell scraps. There are apples on the side of the road. Grandma bought two and asked me to deliver them to you."
An apple is not that big, not even as big as your own fist.
Ji Qingyan, who often visits the supermarket, can tell at a glance that it should be a very cheap apple.
But looking at the two apples, Ji Qingyan felt extremely precious.
"Keep it for you to eat." Ji Qingyan held back her tears, "My sister can usually..."
Halfway through the speech, Ji Qingyan felt her shoulders tighten, and Lin Yi pinched her from behind, so that the rest of the words were held in her stomach, and she didn't say it.
Lin Yi took two apples and took a bite first.
"It's quite sweet, try it."
Only then did Ji Qingyan understand Lin Yi's intentions, and she took a bite too, but the sour feeling almost made her teeth fall out.
"Delicious, sweeter than the apples I bought before."
"hey-hey……"
Wang Dongdong laughed, but didn't say anything, just kept laughing, his eyes filled with satisfaction and joy.
Seeing Wang Dongdong's smile, the corners of Ji Qingyan's mouth also rose.
But my heart is more sour than an apple.
He didn't even have the most basic desires, so why did he want to taste all the sufferings in this world.
Ji Qingyan put the remaining apples in her bag.
Then he bent down and patted Wang Dongdong's head, "Go, sister will take you to see something good."
"What good stuff?"
"My sister collected some things for you, and will take you to sell them later."
"Are these all mine?"
Wang Dongdong stared, the joy in his eyes could not be hidden.
In his eyes, plastic bottles and old newspapers are money, more precious than anything else.
"Yeah, let's go, my sister will take you to have a look."
"I'll clean up with you."
Lin Yi closed the store, and helped Wang Dongdong put all the waste collected at the door into bags, and prepared to drive to sell them, otherwise he would not be able to take so many things by himself.
After packing up, there were two big bags.
"Go in my car, your car is a two-seater, and it can't hold these things." Ji Qingyan said.
"Row."
Seeing Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan, they put two large bags of waste on the Maserati.
The jaws of those who passed by were all shocked.
Is it so exciting for rich people to sell waste products with Maserati?
Sitting in Ji Qingyan's car, Wang Dongdong was so nervous that his body became stiff, as if he couldn't even move.
"Don't be so nervous." Ji Qingyan said.
"It's the first time for me to ride in such a car, and I'm afraid I'll break things."
"It's okay, this is my sister's car, just be casual, don't be so rigid, or my sister will be unhappy."
"I know my sister."
Under Wang Dongdong's leadership, Lin Yi drove the car to an old community. In the innermost part of the community, there was a garage with the door open.
There is a waste collection station. There are two people, a man and a woman, who are packing things at the door and loading them into the truck next to them.
Seeing the Maserati coming, a man and a woman stopped what they were doing, not knowing what the car was for.
"Uncle Li, let's sell scraps."
After the car came to a complete stop, Wang Dongdong got out of the car first, and took down two large packages of waste products.
"Driving to sell scraps? The scraps sold are not enough for people's gas money."
Wang Dongdong was a little embarrassed, "My brother and sister brought me here."
"Help me figure out how much it is, give more if you can." Ji Qingyan discussed.
The man called Uncle Li blushed. After living for so many years, this was the first time he saw such a beautiful girl talking to him.
"I also know Dongdong. He always comes to my place to sell things. I won't count the exact amount. I'll give you 25 yuan, okay?"
In Lin Yi's view, these things can be sold for 20 yuan at most, and 25 yuan is not too little.
"Dongdong, what do you think?" Ji Qingyan asked.
"Yeah, that's a lot."
The man called Uncle Li took out a crumpled 25 yuan from his waist pocket and handed it to Wang Dongdong.
"Uncle Li, Aunt Wang, let's go."
"Let's go, let's go, the brat has gone out and got into the car."
"hey-hey."
The three of them got into the car and drove back to the small shop.
Ji Qingyan patted Wang Dongdong's head.
"Are you hungry, let your big brother cook you something to eat."
"I'm not hungry. I have to go to my grandma at school and tell her the good news."
"Then wait a moment."
Ji Qingyan went to the back kitchen, took some ham and fruit, and handed them to Wang Dongdong.
"Eat something to fill your belly when you're hungry." Ji Qingyan said:
"Your elder brother and I will wait for you here, and we must come over for dinner at night."
"Thank you brother and sister."
After bowing to the two, Wang Dongdong ran out of the shop excitedly.
Helping out in the past is not the most important thing to him.
Instead, I want to hand over the 25 yuan to grandma.
Back in the store, Ji Qingyan edited a recycling detail.
I hope that the nearby college students can put all the recycled waste in the box at the door, and help them as much as possible.
After ten o'clock in the evening, the customers in the store dispersed.
The old lady and Wang Dongdong came in quietly from the outside.
"Little girl, there are no customers in the shop."
"It's okay to have guests, come in quickly."
When they came to the small shop again, the two of them were no longer as cautious as before.
Especially Wang Dongdong, who has become familiar with Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan, and is not so timid when speaking.
"Sister, come to me."
Wang Dongdong stood at the door, mysteriously, hooking his fingers towards Ji Qingyan.
"Do you have any secrets to tell your sister?" Ji Qingyan said with a smile.
"Oh, sister, come quickly."
"You little bastard, you have already learned how to seduce my girlfriend at such a young age." Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Don't scare the child, go and cook."
Wang Dongdong still stood in the distance, looked at Ji Qingyan with a smile, and hooked his fingers coyly.
"Sister, come quickly."
Ji Qingyan walked over with a smile, knelt down and looked at Wang Dongdong.
"What are you going to say to your sister?"
Wang Dongdong glanced at Lin Yi quietly, then turned around, blocking Lin Yi's sight, and whispered:
"Sister, close your eyes."
"Okay, sister, close your eyes."
Wang Dongdong fumbled in his pocket for a long time, then said:
"Sister, open your eyes."
Ji Qingyan opened her eyes and found that Wang Dongdong was holding a lollipop in her hand.
"This one is for you."
With joy on her face, Ji Qingyan took the lollipop from Wang Dongdong's hand.
"Is this really for my sister?"
"Yeah." Wang Dongdong nodded heavily, afraid that Ji Qingyan would not believe it.
"That's fine, why do you buy lollipops for your sister?"
"When my grandma and I were picking up bottles on the basketball court, a big brother bought a lollipop for another big sister. That sister was very happy after eating it, so I want to buy one for you too."
Ji Qingyan looked at Wang Dongdong dumbfounded.
I am already in my 20s, yet I let a teenage boy tease me.
What if it grows up?
But Lin Yi unexpectedly discovered that there were several large reinforced cardboard boxes at the entrance of the small shop.
Each carton has a different label for recycling different waste products.
Lin Yi glanced at the cardboard boxes, some contained plastic bottles, some contained old books and torn newspapers, and there was another box containing a few worn out clothes, but they were not damaged and looked wearable.
