Chapter 938 Bad Thoughts
Chapter 938 Bad Thoughts
"What I said is the truth!" Zhuanzi thought that both he and Shanzi had pancakes, but Shanzi didn't, which meant he was unlucky.
Since I'm unlucky, I might not be able to eat it next time.
So to be on the safe side, it is better to go together. When we find the cucumbers, we can have a bite first even if we are discovered.
Shanzi was furious and didn't want to talk anymore, but he followed him as he said.
When they were still in Jiazhuang, they were very good at finding food, so they quickly found cucumbers by following the smell.
Looking at the cucumbers hanging on the note, the three of them almost drooled.
Zhuzi looked around and found that this was a family home, but there was no fence around it. "Aren't you afraid of being stolen?"
Zhuzi didn't know that there was an old lady sitting at the door of this house all year round to bask in the sun and watch over the vegetables. Plus, the neighbors didn't have extra hands, so nothing had ever been lost.
But I don’t know why the old lady is not here at the moment.
"Stop talking and pick them up while no one is around." Shanzi urged Zhuzi.
The pillar was also very obedient. He went forward and twisted three cucumbers, and the pole also twisted three.
Shanzi grabbed one and took a bite without caring about anything else.
The crispy and sweet taste made him sigh.
But driven by hunger and the rumbling of his stomach, he swallowed it without chewing it and took a second bite.
"Stop eating, let's go first." Zhuzi's face changed when he heard the crisp sound of biting a cucumber.
After hearing this, Shanzi nodded quickly, but while talking, he snatched one from each of them and said incoherently, "I didn't get to eat the pancake just now, so I have to eat half of the cucumber."
Just as he finished speaking, the old lady came out of the house and saw this scene. "Someone, there's a thief! Someone is stealing cucumbers!"
The shrill scream scared Shanzi and the other two so much that they ran out immediately.
But the neighbors heard the old lady's cry and those who were at home ran out quickly.
They just blocked Shanzi and his two companions before they could run far.
Then they saw Shanzi still biting the cucumber, chewing it quickly a few times and swallowing it, then taking a second bite.
"This is a case of catching someone in the act!"
"Is this child sick? How come he is not afraid at all at this time? Otherwise, why is he still eating?"
"Could it be that he has a brain that he eats?"
Everyone was talking about it, but no one asked Shanzi to stop eating.
He heard what those people said and was very angry.
But at this moment he didn't bother to refute, because to refute would mean to eat one less bite, or even eat less.
The feeling of being hungry was too uncomfortable and he didn't want to endure it anymore.
Besides, when I was in the village before, although I sometimes felt hungry, there was a lot of food to be found in the countryside, so I was never as hungry as I am now.
So he let go of everything and ate, but when he was about to eat the second one, the old lady came over.
Although the old lady is old, her movements are very agile and she snatched the cucumber from Shanzi's hand.
Shanzi still wanted to resist and didn't want to hand over the cucumbers, but the neighbor nearby came to help, so in the end Shanzi was left with nothing.
Zhuzi and Zhuangzi originally wanted to eat cucumbers while walking, but when they saw so many people running over from the surrounding area, they immediately became scared and did not dare to commit a crime in front of so many people.
After seeing the old lady grab two cucumbers, he quickly handed the cucumber in his hand to the old lady and said, "We haven't eaten them yet. These cucumbers are still good."
"You are so young and don't learn good things, so you learn these sneaky things!" After the old lady took back her cucumbers, she started scolding.
"We didn't steal anything, we just took a few cucumbers!" Zhuzi felt that the old lady was wrong and corrected her in a low voice.
"Hey, where did this illiterate person come from?"
"You don't even know what stealing means? You probably never went to school!"
With a cucumber in his stomach, Shanzi felt much better. When he heard them say they had never been to school, he felt that his chance had come and immediately started crying. “We went to school, but the people who sponsored us were unwilling to support us, so we came to Beijing. But all our money was stolen. We couldn’t bear the hunger, so we took the cucumber to eat.”
"Listen, this kid said he took it, he didn't think it was stealing!"
"Taking something without permission is stealing. Don't you understand this?"
"You definitely don't understand. If you do, then why don't the sponsors support me to continue my studies?"
"He must be a poor student. There's no need for him to continue his studies. Why are you still supporting him? Are you just wasting your money?!"
Shanzi was unhappy when he heard this, "We are willing to learn, but the teachers in that school don't teach well, and we can't learn because we can't understand!"
"Forget it. As the old saying goes, a master can only lead you to the door, but practice depends on yourself! You blame the teacher for your own lack of progress. It seems that you have not learned anything at all!"
"If I were the sponsor, I would definitely not do such a hopeless thing."
"Hey, I've heard that there's a company in Beijing that provides financial aid, called something like Faraway. They have a rule for financial aiding students: if the child doesn't study hard, then the financial aid will be revoked. It looks like they're talking about these three children!"
When Shanzi heard the word "faraway", his eyes lit up and he walked up to ask, "Do you know where faraway is? Take us there quickly!"
"Who are you?" The person who just spoke was startled, and then became unhappy, "Are you ordering me around?"
"No, no," Shanzi realized that he was too excited just now and didn't pay attention to what he said, "I'm asking you to take us there. We have to ask the sponsor. You can't just give up on us halfway and abandon us on the road!"
The old lady was originally feeling sorry for her cucumbers, but she didn't expect the person who ate her cucumbers to be so heartless. "You mean that if they sponsor you to go to school, they have to continue sponsoring you, otherwise they are cheating you?"
Shanzi didn't say anything, but the expression that flashed across his face was clear to everyone.
"You are such a kind-hearted person, but you have thrown it away!" The old lady spat on the ground. "I shouldn't have helped you ungrateful people like you. Wouldn't it be better to keep the money and eat more meat?"
Shanzi, who was scolded like a dog and regarded as an ungrateful person, didn't care how the old lady scolded him at this moment. He just looked at the person who just said far away, "Please send us to far away. We came here and suffered so much just for far away!"
"Xiao He, don't listen to what this kid says. He sent people far away," the old lady looked at the person who was called Xiao He, "He didn't study well before, and now he comes to me without saying hello and says he suffered a lot. I know this kid has bad intentions and may be harboring some bad thoughts!"
