Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character

Gao Meina was furious, "How dare you say that? Although working people are the most glorious, if you go to pick up rags, people who don't know would think I'm abusing you.

Anyway, no matter what, you are not allowed to go out and pick up junk again. If something like this happens again, I will teach you a lesson."

Su Tong was not willing to admit defeat. "What's wrong with picking up rags? Doesn't my mother often get old clothes from relatives? This is also picking up rags. I think this method is very good. It not only recycles resources but also saves money. It's really killing two birds with one stone."

Seeing her daughter had reached a dead end, Gao Meina immediately went to find Su Changliang and asked him to help her solve the problem.

"My daughter is grown up now, and I can't control her anymore. As a father, you should say something. You can't let me, as a mother, do everything. I don't want to be the bad guy all the time."

What could Su Changliang say? He was honest and loyal to begin with, and he would not say a word even if he was beaten with three sticks. Looking at the woman who was covered in dirt, he was so moved that his eyes turned red.

"My dear daughter, you have worked so hard. Don't worry, I will work hard in the future and will never let you and your mother suffer any grievances."

Su Tong had no objection to his father. "Dad, I know you've tried your best to give me the best life. I think there's nothing wrong with picking up rubbish. Besides, when I'm in my sixties or seventies, I'll still go through trash cans to cut paper shells. Now I'm just adapting in advance. It's no big deal."

Gao Meina next to him couldn't stand it any longer. "Don't say anything more. If you go to pick up rags again, I'll kick you out right now."

Su Tong was not that scared. "Okay, if you kick me out, I'll go to an orphanage. I can eat and drink for free in the orphanage, and I can go to school for free. Maybe I can even save my family a lot of money.

Mom, the teacher asked us if we wanted to get a subsidy for poor students. I didn’t want it at first, but then I thought about it and realized that this is for families in need, and our family is already in a difficult situation.

I have never traveled abroad, so I plan to apply for the poverty-stricken student subsidy from my teacher to supplement my family’s income.”

Gao Meina couldn't listen any more. She also worked in a respectable company. If others knew that her daughter was picking up scraps to save money and even applied for poverty-stricken student subsidies at school, what would they think? She had a house, a car, and a job, so how could she end up unable to make ends meet?

Gao Meina didn't dare to think about it anymore. "Okay, my dear daughter, I lied to you before. Our family is not poor. I just want to save a little. Don't pick up rags in the future."

"But if our family is not poor, then why does mom always say that there is no money at home? Although our family is not poor, our expenses are also high. I am in school and I only know how to eat white rice all day long. I can't make a greater contribution to the family.

Although my father has a job, he earns very little money, far less than what other uncles earn.

Although I earn little money from picking up scraps, at least I am working hard and can help my family.

Mom, I know you are afraid that I will be laughed at by others. Don't worry, at worst I will just wear a black hood and let others look down on my face. "

Gao Meina had never been as desperate as she was today. She had said all kinds of good and bad things to her, but her daughter still wanted to pick up junk. He took a deep breath, then took out a large stack of RMB from his pocket. He originally wanted to go to the beauty salon with his best friend, but now he put the money directly on the table.

"See? We're indeed not short of money at home. What I said before was mainly to encourage you to develop a frugal spirit and not be extravagant. Now I've made it clear, you're not allowed to pick up rags anymore..." Gao Meina said as she walked towards the room with all her might, because she felt like her head was about to explode.

Su Tong didn't care about all that, but looking at Su Changliang who was shocked next to him, Su Tong was ready to add fuel to the fire.

"Dad, what does Mom mean by that? Is our family rich or poor? If we are rich, then why does Mom always complain about being poor?

But if we have no money, mom can easily take out such a large sum of money, then where did all the money our family had gone?

I... I am just a child, but I can't eat too much, and I wear other people's old clothes. My father doesn't spend money recklessly, so where does our family's money go?"

Yes, where did the money in the family go?

Su Changliang then began to think about where his salary went. Although his salary was not particularly high, it was one of the best in this place, and it was definitely enough to cover the family's expenses. Not to mention that Gao Mina had her own job, and the couple had no mortgage or car loan. Logically, they shouldn't have lived such a tight life, right?

Su Changliang is an adult and has his own judgment. As for why he dare not express his guess, it is mainly because he wants to maintain some dignity between husband and wife.

"Tongtong, maybe your mother just wants to save some money. Okay, don't go picking up rags anymore..." Su Changliang actually felt sorry for his daughter's behavior. After all, only when parents are useless will their children suffer.

Su Tong just smiled and went back to her room obediently. Although she said she would no longer pick up scraps, she still had plenty of ways to torture Gao Meina.

The next day, Gao Meina sent her daughter to school. After finding out that her daughter really had no intention of picking up trash, Gao Meina breathed a sigh of relief. However, just after she sent her daughter to the school gate and before she had time to leave, she was stopped by the teacher.

"Tongtong's mother, I want to talk to you about Su Tongtong's performance during this period. Is this convenient for you?"

Gao Meina was still wondering if Su Tong had gotten into trouble outside, so she nodded immediately, "Of course it's convenient, teacher, did our child get into trouble at school?"

The teacher immediately shook her head, "Of course not, Tongtong is a very well-behaved and cute child, it's just that Tongtong has been picking up some bottles at school recently. I asked her why, and she said it was to increase her family's income...

In fact, our school also has some humanitarian care. If Su's family is really in difficulty, I am willing to reserve the place for poor students for Su, and I will even organize students to donate money to Su.

Tongtong's mother, you don't have to feel embarrassed. Everyone will encounter their own problems, and you don't have to force yourself..."

Gao Meina took a step back in shock when she heard this, then immediately shook her head, her face flushed red. If there was a crack in the ground, she would have wanted to crawl into it immediately.

"Teacher, it's not like that. We... our family is not short of money, but... it's just that this child is an environmentalist, so he wants to make some contributions to the earth... But don't worry, we have already discussed these things last night. He will not pick up rags in school anymore. I appreciate your kindness, teacher. Thank you so much."

The teacher nodded absentmindedly, "So that's the reason. If Su's family is fine, that's great."
