Chapter 2991 Little Cotton Jacket
the next day.
Just as the sky was getting light, Chen Mo heard a rustling sound outside.
Because the utility room is very small, if someone lives there, they can't stretch their legs at all if the door is closed, so the door of the utility room is open.
For so many years, even in the countryside, Chen Mo had never lived in such a small room, so he had some insomnia.
When he was in a daze, Chen Mo felt a sneaky figure flash past.
Chen Mo got up alertly and tiptoed out to take a look.
Chen Ziyi took a large snakeskin bag and quietly went out.
Chen Mo glanced at the time. It was only 4:30 in the morning!!!
Why are you going out so early, kid?
Chen Mo quickly put on his clothes and followed Chen Ziyi.
Chen Ziyi skillfully put on gloves, picked up an iron hook, and began to search through the community's trash cans.
Soon, she stuffed some cardboard boxes and beverage bottles into the snakeskin bag.
Chen Mo then realized that the child was actually picking up rags!!!
Chen Mo walked up without saying a word.
Chen Ziyi was still immersed in picking up scraps when she suddenly felt someone patting her shoulder from behind.
Confused, she turned around and found that it was Chen Mo!
"What are you doing here?" Chen Mo asked.
Chen Mo's sudden appearance startled Chen Ziyi. She lowered her head, feeling a little at a loss as to what to do with the snakeskin bag in her hand.
"Tell me! Why are you here picking up junk so early in the morning instead of sleeping?"
Chen Mo raised his eyebrows and asked, his tone sounding a bit intimidating.
When Chen Mo's domineering aura was released, not to mention the soft and sweet little girl Chen Ziyi, even the emperors and the richest people could not bear it.
Chen Ziyi panicked: "I... I want to make more money for you..."
The sun had not yet risen in the early morning, and the neighborhood was still very dark. Although the two could not see each other's faces clearly, Chen Ziyi knew that Chen Mo was staring at her.
She did it secretly because she didn't want her family to know, so she sacrificed some of her sleeping time to pick up scraps.
Who would have thought that he would be caught by his father!
This was the first time that Chen Ziyi felt guilty about being caught by her parents.
After all, her brothers and sisters used to scold her angrily when they saw her picking up rubbish.
However, after listening to her story, Chen Mo did not scold her.
Chen Mo took the hook from Chen Ziyi and asked, "How many more bottles do you want to pick up?"
"Pick up maybe 30 more."
Chen Ziyi answered weakly.
"Come on, I'll go with you. We can pick it up together and do it faster."
At 6 o'clock, we had finally picked up most of the bottles.
“Where can I buy it?”
Chen Mo asked.
"There's a scrap collection station in the small...community..."
Chen Ziyi said weakly.
"Let's go and sell it for money."
Chen Mo walked in front with a cigarette in his mouth and a snakeskin bag on his shoulder, without saying a word.
Chen Ziyi was very nervous. The two of them were silent all the way. After they finished selling the scrap and received about 20 yuan, Chen Mo suddenly said to the owner of the scrap collection station, "Boss, have you seen this girl?"
The boss nodded: "Yeah, what's the matter?"
“I’m her father, please don’t collect her waste anymore.
When I come back, my children won’t have to work so hard to support the family.”
Chen Mo handed over a cigarette.
The boss was also a man of character, and he said immediately, "No problem!
Ziyi is such a sensible child, so it’s not a big deal for her to get up early every morning to pick up trash.
My dear brother, now that you are back, you must take good care of her!
The child is very sensible! "
"That's a must! My daughter, if I don't love her, who will?"
Chen Mo smiled and sold the snakeskin bag and the hook together, and the boss gave him two more dollars.
Chen Ziyi was stunned.
"Dad...you...how could you do this..."
"Silly child, our family is rich."
Chen Mo patted Chen Ziyi's head and said, "From today on, let Dad take care of you, okay?"
Chen Ziyi stared at Chen Mo blankly, her eyes suddenly turned red with grievance, and she threw herself into Chen Mo's arms and burst into tears.
"Dad...I...I have a dad!
I’m finally not a wild child anymore!!!”
“Dad… wuwuwu…”
Although Chen Ziyi didn't say anything, Chen Mo could guess how she had been discriminated against in school over the years because she had no father.
Chen Mo, feeling heartbroken, touched Chen Ziyi's head and said, "Good boy, come on, Daddy will take you to have breakfast!"
Chen Ziyi nodded vigorously.
Since she was a child, what she envied most was getting up in the morning and watching other people's fathers take their children to have breakfast.
Today, she finally realized this wish!
“I know a place that’s both cheap and delicious!”
Chen Ziyi volunteered.
“Let Dad make the arrangements today.
I’ll take you somewhere later.”
Chen Mo said with a smile.
"I have classes in the morning."
Chen Ziyi glanced at Chen Mo. Although she wanted to stay with Chen Mo for a while longer, she didn't want to skip class.
"You're already a senior, and you're still taking shitty classes. Just ask for leave."
Chen Mo said calmly.
Even if Chen Ziyi dropped out of school right now, Chen Mo could guarantee that Chen Ziyi's future life would be smooth sailing, and she would live a thousand times better life than all her classmates, even her teachers and the principal!!!
"This...isn't good..."
Chen Ziyi has never skipped classes. Even when she had a fever, she insisted on attending classes, which was a bit timid.
"There's nothing wrong with it. Just listen to your father!" Chen Mo said seriously.
"it is good!"
Chen Ziyi gritted her teeth, looking determined.
Chen Mo sighed helplessly.
The child is still too honest!
Soon, the two arrived at Longchel Restaurant.
Just as Chen Mo was about to go in, Chen Ziyi's eyes widened and she pulled Chen Mo back: "Dad! This... this is not a place we can enter!
This is too expensive, let's go get some tofu pudding buns, I'll treat you."
"I told you, Dad is rich!
Remember, from today on, this restaurant is your minimum dining standard."
Chen Mo pulled Chen Ziyi into the restaurant without saying a word.
This western restaurant serves breakfast.
And the breakfast served is all of the kind that looks particularly fancy.
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Waiter, bring all your signature dishes."
"Ok sir."
Soon, exquisite Western breakfasts were served on the table. In addition to cakes and desserts, there were also steaks, bacon, volcano skewers, pasta, etc.
Chen Ziyi has never eaten this kind of thing in her life.
"This...how much does this cost?" Chen Ziyi swallowed and asked worriedly.
"Miss, the total is 8232 yuan. I'll round it off for you and charge you 8200 yuan."
The waiter smiled.
Chen Ziyi was so scared that she almost collapsed on the ground!
8200 yuan for a breakfast?
Isn't this the end of the day?
"Take it and brush it."
Chen Mo casually handed the card that Chen Pingan gave him to the waiter.
There are 5 yuan in it, so just spend it first. This kind of savings card probably won't appear in the Chen family again in the future.
The grade is too low!
But Chen Ziyi's face turned pale, and she trembled as she said, "Dad...you...how could you waste our savings like this?"
