Chapter 80: Chapter 76 Withdraw Money (Xuan’er Feifei’s He Shi Bi additional update)
It was clear that Zhou Yunmei was unaware of this matter.
When she changed her clothes and came out of the house, she saw that Fang Pingying and her husband had not come out, and they had not mentioned anything about the money. She chuckled to herself, thinking they had forgotten about going to town to withdraw the money today.
She knew very well that if Luo Zhiyong and Fang Pingying went to get the money, they would definitely keep some of it.
Because Luo Zhiyong usually sent back over thirty yuan each month, but this time his salary seemed to have increased, it was actually US$ 50, and if she went to get it herself, all fifty dollars would be hers.
Thus, she deliberately didn’t call Fang Pingying and went with Fang Xiu and Luo Cuilan to the post office to withdraw the money using the redemption slip sent by the troops.
When Luo Zhiyong and his partner came out, they saw only Dashan and Luo Honglan in the yard, and asked, "Where are Mom and Zhiming?"
Dashan replied anxiously, "She took the redemption slip to town to get the money. You guys better hurry as well, or who knows how much will be left."
Luo Zhiyong didn’t react at first, looking puzzled, "Withdraw money? How can they withdraw without my stamp?"
Only then did Dashan realize this was an issue, but he was relieved and said with a light smile, "That’s perfect. You can go to town and withdraw the money yourselves. Give your mom how much you should give her, and don’t let her squander all the money."
Now Luo Zhiyong fully understood that Zhou Yunmei deliberately didn’t let them go.
To get his salary, Zhou Yunmei deliberately didn’t call them, but took Fang Xiu and others to the town instead. What was this all about?
Feeling a hint of anger, Luo Zhiyong didn’t say much, only asking Luo Honglan standing beside him, "Hong Lan, are you coming with us to the market?"
Luo Honglan shook her head, smiling, "Big brother, I won’t go with you. I’m going to Miss Fang’s place later. If Miss Fang goes, I’ll go with her."
Luo Zhiyong nodded and walked away with Fang Pingying.
This was the first time Fang Pingying and Luo Zhiyong were walking to the town market together. They met many villagers along the way. Seeing that Luo Zhiyong was well, many came over to chat.
It was only then Fang Pingying realized that Luo Zhiyong knew a lot of things, as if he could join in on any conversation.
Whether it was about the current state of the country, city news someone asked about, or even chat about farming, he seemed to know exactly what to say.
Corresponding with familiar people and also being on the same route naturally led to chatting all the way to the town.
Once in town, they each went about their own business.
Fang Pingying, smiling, asked Luo Zhiyong, "You know so much, have you really experienced all that you talked about?"
"Not really, I just like to read newspapers and books when I’m bored, so I know a bit about everything," Luo Zhiyong said with a light smile, "After all, in one’s lifetime, you’ll encounter many different people and events. Besides, I might not be in the army forever, I need to learn other things, in case I retire from the military and need another skill."
"You might not, but perhaps you could serve in the military your whole life," Fang Pingying remembered that in Luo Zhiyong’s past life he indeed served in the military his whole life, although he couldn’t handle family matters well, but when it came to dealing decisively with his subordinates, he was very severe.
Given his contentious nature and capability, the military wouldn’t let go of such an excellent talent.
"If I could serve my whole life that would be great, but knowing various other things isn’t bad either," Luo Zhiyong finished, and didn’t forget to remind Fang Pingying, "If you have nothing to do at home, also try to read newspapers, books, at least to be aware of what’s happening in society."
Fang Pingying gave a light smile, not to mention she knew what was happening in today’s society, she even knew what would happen in future.
But it was right for the man to encourage her to learn, she nodded, promising to enhance her learning in the future.
Luo Zhiyong saw she was humoring him, smiled, and glanced at her, not saying anything.
For some reason, if it were someone else, Luo Zhiyong would think this person was not ambitious.
But looking at Fang Pingying, Luo Zhiyong felt she wasn’t lacking ambition, but rather because she knew all these things, even if she didn’t read or watch the news, she understood no less than him, who was studying in the army every day.
Confused as to why, he always felt like he had found a treasure.
The post office in town wasn’t far from the town entrance. Luo Zhiyong and his companion had just arrived in town when they were spotted by Zhou Yunmei, who had been waiting at the entrance of the post office.
As soon as Zhou Yunmei saw them, she shouted and walked towards them.
Approaching them, she looked impatiently at Fang Pingying, "What were you two dawdling at home for? We’ve been in town for almost half an hour."
Inside, Fang Pingying secretly laughed, but pretended not to know and responded, "Ah? Mom, why didn’t you wait for us at home, why wait for us here?"
"I..." Zhou Yunmei was stumped, not knowing what to say.
Fang Xiu, who came along, helped her continue, "No, we thought about walking and waiting for you guys, who knew you’d be so slow and took so long to leave home."
Fang Pingying looked at Fang Xiu with a playful smile, then casually replied, "Is that so? I didn’t know you were waiting for us, I thought you had come earlier."
"Let it be, no more talk, let’s go get the money now, you need your own person and your stamp to withdraw it," Fang Pingying hadn’t finished speaking when Zhou Yunmei cut her off.
She spoke while handing the redemption slip to Luo Zhiyong.
Seeing her frustrated face made Fang Pingying want to laugh even more.
But she held back, feigning surprise said to Zhou Yunmei, "Oh, there’s such a strange rule? That’s odd, I thought just taking the redemption slip was enough to withdraw the money."
Luo Zhiyong, seeing Fang Pingying’s exaggerated reactions on the side, knew she was also upset about Zhou Yunmei not calling them to withdraw the money, so he let her speak.
Zhou Yunmei had been waiting for almost an hour at this point and ultimately couldn’t withdraw the money, which annoyed her.
She glanced at Fang Pingying displeasedly, then urged Luo Zhiyong, "Zhiyong, you go get it, we’ll wait here for you."
Seeing the salary amount on the redemption slip, Luo Zhiyong said nothing, just said to Fang Pingying, "Pingying, take the stamp, let’s go get the money."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunmei immediately grabbed Fang Pingying’s arm and said to Luo Zhiyong, "Isn’t it fine if you go alone? Why call Pingying?"
Luo Zhiyong knew well the little schemes in Zhou Yunmei’s mind, he looked at Zhou Yunmei and clarified directly, "Or Mom, you can come with me. Besides, I usually send home thirty dollars each month, and after withdrawing the money, I’ll give you just that much." (To be continued.
