Chapter 81 Meeting a colleague 3
"No, we'll talk about it later."
Wuba was not surprised at all when he heard the host's rejection. As a newcomer who had just experienced two worlds, it was normal for him to be tight on money. The host is already relatively wealthy among the newcomers. He was lucky enough to get a space that could follow him through the world in the first world. Some elderly people with more seniority than him may not have it.
After giving up the idea of expanding the system space, Yuan Xi began to sort out the things left by the original owner.
The original owner lived a very frugal life, with two pairs of shoes, two sets of regular clothes, several sets of school uniforms worn for three years in high school, some stationery, and a bookkeeping book, which contained his expenses for the three years of life and the income from part-time jobs. , and some odds and ends were neatly packed into a cardboard box, and a duffel bag could fit them all in.
As for the books from three years of high school, the original owner had sold them for scrap. He used the money in exchange to buy a duffel bag and had a meal of spicy hotpot.
"What an optimistic person."
Yuan Xi admired the character of the original owner, who was positive and full of sunshine, but it was a pity that he died young.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk."
"Yuanxi, are you there?"
"Here, Teacher Li." Yuan Xi walked to the door and opened it.
Outside the door is the original owner's class teacher for three years in high school. He is fifty-eight years old this year. His wife died early and left a son. The father and son depended on each other. Later, when the son grew up and went to work in other places, the wife married and had children. I have always wanted to take Teacher Li over, but Teacher Li refused. Firstly, he did not want to cause trouble to his son, and secondly, he really loved this job and had been putting off waiting until he retired. Because the original owner was an orphan, Teacher Li always took good care of him.
"How's it going? Which university have you decided to apply to?"
Teacher Li went straight to the point.
When he entered the dormitory and saw that Yuan Xi had packed everything, he frowned and said, "You don't have to pack your things so quickly. The school said that you can move out before September."
Yuan Xi pulled out the desk chair, put it away, asked Teacher Li to sit down, and sat on a low plastic stool.
"I just want to pack my things and organize them first so that I won't be in a hurry later. By the way, teacher, I went to the Internet cafe to check out the school this morning and I've already signed up."
When he heard about the registration, Teacher Li didn't care about other things and asked with concern: "Which university did you apply for? What major?"
Yuan Xi mentioned the name of the university and its major. Teacher Li thought for a moment and said, "With your grades, it's no problem to get into this university, but didn't you say before that you like the sea and want to go to school in a coastal area?"
Before he could answer, Teacher Li sighed: "You young people really have an idea all at once."
Yuan Xi nodded: "Ah, yes, yes, I suddenly feel that it is more suitable there. It's just that the university is a bit far away from Nan'an City, so I won't be able to come back to see you often in the future."
"You don't have to come back to see me. Why spend that money? A good life for you is the greatest reward for the teacher. I just want to tell you that I am retiring early. My son said yesterday that he would take me to live in the capital. A while ago My son is worried about his poor health and says that my eldest grandson doesn't like to study, so he asked me to come over and help him take care of his grandson."
"I agreed as soon as I thought about it. I didn't want to trouble him before, but now being here alone makes him even more worried. I might as well go take care of my grandson. If nothing else, I can help him with his homework."
"Brother Li is filial. You have been busy for most of your life, and you should enjoy peace and happiness at this age."
Teacher Li smiled happily, chatted a few more words with Yuan Xi, and told his son's address in the capital, "If you want to see me then, just go here."
"Sure, no problem."
Yuan Xi responded happily, but he knew in his heart that he didn’t know when the next time he would meet again would be, and he didn’t know if there would be a chance to see him again.
After chatting, Teacher Li left.
Yuan Xi followed him downstairs and walked him to the door of the dormitory building. He waited until the people were gone before going back.
When he returned to the dormitory and was about to sit down, he saw an envelope on the table with money inside. Yuan Xi did a rough calculation and found that it was at least two thousand.
You don't need to think about it to know that Teacher Li put it quietly, probably while he was pouring water for him. This place was blocked by Teacher Li, so he couldn't see it.
"This little old man has quite a lot of thoughts." Yuan Xi unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth. This feeling of being cared for makes people feel warm at all times.
In addition to the money, there was a note in the envelope, written by Teacher Li, with a series of addresses and a mobile phone number on it. There is another sentence at the end: Don't think too much, the teacher lent you this money, remember to pay it back, and call the teacher if you have anything.
As expected of a veteran educator, he also knows how to take care of the self-esteem of young people.
Seeing the words "phone call", Yuan Xi touched his trouser pocket, turned around and went to the bed to look for it again, muttering: "Where is the phone? Strange, where is it?"
I searched around the dormitory but couldn't find it.
Yuan Xi finally remembered that the original owner didn’t have a mobile phone at all.
He covered his face, trying to forget the embarrassing moment just now, but luckily no one saw it. I felt lucky in my heart, but my big toe was still moving back and forth, trying to dig out the three rooms and one living room.
Because the school is on holiday, the canteen is also closed.
Yuan Xi could only go out to solve the problem of eating. He first bought a second-hand mobile phone and applied for a mobile phone card. The first thing he did was save Teacher Li's phone number. Then I found a few clean, hygienic and delicious restaurants, packed a few more portions at once, and put them in the ring, so that I didn’t have to go out often.
After dinner, he went to the bank, left a year's tuition, and withdrew everything else. Everything was transferred to the ring as soon as I put it in my schoolbag.
If this was stolen, he would cry on the spot. These are the only money he has.
He swore he had never been so poor.
"I didn't expect that I would also have to worry about money one day." I sighed in my heart.
Remember this lesson and put some gold into the system space next time.
Yuan Xi started to plan carefully. It was raining heavily all over the world for more than a month. He wanted to stock up on some things. After thinking about it, he only thought about food, clothing, housing and transportation. He had no idea of what to buy and how much. He thought that there was still some time before September 1st, and it was already getting late, so he might as well go back and check it out at night. , make a list and come out to buy it tomorrow.
After dinner in the evening, he sat at his desk and turned on the small desk lamp. Yuan Xi took out his mobile phone and went to the forum to check whether he wanted to know where he lived or where he lived. He made a list based on his own situation and financial conditions.
By the time I finished writing, it was already late at night. After washing, he lay on the bed, recalling the memory of the original owner. Half asleep and half awake, Yuan Xi suddenly woke up and sat up suddenly.
"That's not right. In the memory of the original owner, Teacher Li has not retired early. He did not give the money today, but secretly stuffed it into his schoolbag before going to college on August 27th."
His scalp is numb. He has just arrived in this world and has not yet taken action. How does the butterfly effect occur?
"Brother Li asked Teacher Li to retire yesterday. Yesterday, I wasn't here yet."
Yuan Xi was confused.
[Maybe it was done by the heaven in this world. We have all applied in advance to come to this world. The heaven in this world has long known that we are coming. For some unknown reason, some creatures in this world were given a precognitive dream yesterday. Some people should have been reminded. 】
Yuan Xi understood that his arrangement in the Internet cafe today was in vain, and it was not certain that he could save one by one.
He designed a small code when he was in the Internet cafe. Tomorrow, as long as a computer is turned on in that Internet cafe, it will automatically post online and send messages to the government mailboxes of various regions in Yanguo.
No matter how much he goes on, there is nothing he can do. Immortals cannot be cultivated in this world, and he is just an ordinary person.
