The Beginning of the World: Going to the Countryside as an Educated Youth
Chapter 25 Acting Bravely
There is a big table in the dormitory, and he has also wiped the desk lamp on the table. It is just right for him to practice questions and write here.
By the time he finished cleaning up all these, it was already dark. The food he had eaten at noon had long been digested and his stomach was growling with hunger. Zhao Dongchuan thought about going out to eat something. Although there was a public kitchen in the dormitory, it hadn't been lit yet.
At this time, Du Lili also came out of her dormitory with a bag in her hand, as if she was coming to the dormitory to pack her things.
"Sister Lili, have you had dinner tonight? Do you want to go to a restaurant together?" Zhao Dongchuan wanted to take this opportunity to invite Du Lili to dinner to express his gratitude.
Unexpectedly, Du Lili ran away as if she had stepped on a mouse, saying as she ran: "No, no, I've eaten, you can eat it yourself!!"
This time, Zhao Dongchuan finally figured it out. Although he didn't know why, it seemed like Du Lili was deliberately distancing herself from him? Zhao Dongchuan was confused.
"I shouldn't have offended her in any way," he thought to himself.
Zhao Dongchuan shook his head speechlessly. He ignored her and walked on!!! Let's go and visit Huangyuan City.
The city is the city. Although it is dark now, there are still many people on the street. Groups of pedestrians are chatting under the street lights. The cinema is bustling with people coming and going. There are also some people secretly setting up stalls in the corners to do business.
It is difficult to set up stalls during the day, so most of them come out at night, in some corners, looking alert and ready to run away at any time. Many people turn a blind eye to this, and no one goes out of their way to report it.
The state-owned restaurant was closed at this time and would not accept new customers, so Zhao Dongchuan had no choice but to find a small stall to eat something to fill his stomach.
Zhao Dongchuan was at a corner next to the cinema and saw someone setting up a stall to sell some food, which was steaming.
Zhao Dongchuan walked closer and found that it was a stall selling vegetarian noodles and roujiamo.
The stall owner was a middle-aged woman wearing patched clothes and with a frosted face. She was cooking noodles and adding soup with a bit of skill, while also making roujiamo.
There was also a little girl about ten years old helping out, they looked like a mother and daughter.
There were two people standing nearby with bowls in their hands, eating noodles in big mouthfuls, and each of them had a roujiamo in his hand.
Zhao Dongchuan walked over and asked, "Hello, how much is a bowl of noodles and a roujiamo?"
The little girl who was helping out said, "15 cents, no food coupons needed."
"Okay, give me a bowl of noodles and a steamed bun." Zhao Dongchuan didn't say anything. It was good to have something to eat.
Hearing that there was business, the proprietress smiled and ordered another bowl of noodles and handed the freshly made roujiamo to Zhao Dongchuan. Zhao Dongchuan took the steamed bun and started eating it in big mouthfuls. He was indeed hungry and didn't care about his image anymore.
Zhao Dongchuan was eating steamed bun while waiting for his noodles. The two people next to him also finished eating, put down their bowls, and prepared to leave.
"Hey, you haven't paid yet?" the little girl reminded.
"I just gave it to me. How can you blackmail me? My brother can testify for me." One of the thin men pointed at the other man and said.
"That's right! That's right! We have already paid, what's the matter, are you trying to blackmail us? Let's go to the Public Security Brigade and talk it out!" the man also chimed in.
"You, you, you obviously didn't give any money." The little girl was so angry that her face turned red and tears were about to fall.
"Forget it, forget it." The proprietress didn't want to cause trouble. They were already doing their small business in secret, so how could she dare to go to the public security brigade with them?
"Mom, they clearly didn't give us any money, yet they already ate several bowls of food." The little girl looked angry with a puffy face.
"Hehehe" when the two men saw that they had succeeded, they smiled obscenely and prepared to leave.
Zhao Dongchuan looked at this scene and felt deeply moved.
As expected, there are always some "scumbags" in any era.
Zhao Dongchuan came up with an idea. He took out a 2-yuan note from the space and controlled it with his mind to appear where the two were passing by. The thin man was walking and saw money. He immediately bent down to pick it up and held it in his hand, ready to put it in his pocket.
At this time, Zhao Dongchuan pretended to be anxious, touched his pocket and said, "Where is my money? Who stole my money!" Then he turned and looked at the thin man.
"What do you have in your hand? Is it my money?" Zhao Dongchuan looked at the thin man with suspicion.
"No, I was just tying my shoelaces." The thin man said guiltily.
"Open your hands and let me see, quickly!" Zhao Dongchuan walked over and said.
The two men looked at each other and ran away.
Hey! This was exactly what he wanted. Zhao Dongchuan didn't need to find any other excuses. He burst out with strength and chased after him with a loud bang.
Kick them one by one and knock them down easily.
Zhao Dongchuan walked up and gave each of them a slap in the face.
"You stole my money and wanted to run away. You are so heartless. Go talk to the public security brigade," Zhao Dongchuan said with a cold face as he tried to take them away one by one.
"Brother, brother, we were wrong. We will return the money to you." The thin man quickly admitted his mistake, crying and sobbing.
In this day and age, stealing is considered a serious crime. Not only will the person lose his reputation and go to jail, but he will also be forced to go to a construction team in a surrounding village for reeducation through labor. Now, even if he says he found it, no one will believe him. He really wanted to keep the money.
"That's enough! Stop crying!"
"Give me back the money I stole"
The thin man spread out the two dollars in his hand and gave them back to Zhao Dongchuan.
Zhao Dongchuan frowned: "These two pieces originally belonged to me, so where is your sincerity in your apology? It seems that you still want to go to the public security brigade!"
"Uncle, we have no money," the thin man said quickly.
"No money? Then don't blame me for being rude. Let's go to the Public Security Brigade!" Zhao Dongchuan made a gesture to leave.
The two men were unable to break free from his tremendous strength, and seeing that they had no choice but to give in.
"Uncle, I forgot, there is... there is..." Then they each collected a dollar and handed it to Zhao Dongchuan.
When Zhao Dongchuan saw that they took out two dollars, he let it go. Two dollars was a lot of money these days, so he let them go. The two men ran away as if they were pardoned, as if they were afraid that Zhao Dongchuan would go back on his word.
Zhao Dongchuan also planned to finish eating quickly to avoid being asked to come back for trouble. Although he was not afraid of a fight given his current physical condition, the current time was not suitable for being high-profile, at least not with his current identity.
He put away his two dollars and handed the other two to the girl.
"Here, this is the meal money they gave me."
The little girl and the proprietress didn't dare to say a word during the whole scene just now.
The little girl took the money and looked at Zhao Dongchuan seriously.
"Thank you, brother." Obviously the little girl knew that Zhao Dongchuan was standing up for them.
Zhao Dongchuan didn't say anything either, he just touched the little girl's head.
