Chapter 60: Ghostly Machine 3
"Ah?" Tian Biao was taken aback, looking at Tian Yuan with some blame, "Yuan Yuan, what did I usually teach you, Dad?"
"My good dad, I know that one cannot be greedy for money that does not belong to them, and cannot think about it..." Tian Yuan got a headache, pulled at Tian Biao's arm with a spoiled tone, "Dad, this is the reason, I'll explain it to you later, okay?"
Before Tian Biao came back to his senses, Tian Wei looked at the police officer and said, "Officer, it's almost time for dinner. If you don't mind our simple farm food, why not have a meal with us?"
The police officer hastily stood up, shaking his head and waving his hand, "No, no, no, I'm also from the countryside, I grew up eating rural food, where would I be picky? It's just that I still need to go back and report to my leader, our bureau has rules, we're not allowed to eat other people's meals. So, I won't disturb you while you're eating, I'll leave first~ Uncle, Grandpa, goodbye."
The police officer walked quickly, fearing that the enthusiastic villagers would forcibly detain him, but he didn't know that Tianyuan was just asking questions and also knew he wouldn't stay. He used this excuse to send him away first, in order to explain to Tianbiao why she wanted Tianbiao to collect the money.
After Tian Wan and others had walked far away, she stretched out her hand to open the envelope, took out the money inside, counted it, and was shocked to find that there were as much as 2,000 yuan! This leader is really generous!
"Wow! So much money!" Wu Yuguang walked over as soon as he heard the conversation outside, and when he saw the money on the table, he was startled. At his age, he had never seen so much money before!
Tian Wan's hands moved quickly, swiftly stacking the money and putting away the cloth bag. She directly stuffed it into Tian Biao's arms and said, "Dad, hurry up and put this money away safely. Next time you go to the county, deposit it in the bank."
"Ah~ Collected so quickly, what's the hurry! Let me see, count how much money there is!" Wu Yuguang rushed over but it was too late, Tian Yuan had already packed up and handed it to Tian Biao's hands, while Tian Mao Chun sat on the other side, she didn't dare to grab it back, could only ask "What's this money for?"
"The compensation money that the police officer brought over just now, it's all been taken care of. The higher-ups knew that Dad has trouble with his leg, so they specially sent someone to deliver it." Tianyuan explained, without mentioning the condolence money.
"Compensation? Oh, I'm looking at it, this compensation is quite a lot, isn't it?" Wu Yugui's eyes had been fixed on the cloth bag since he came in, as if he wanted to stare a hole through it and count how much money was inside.
"Grandma, is this money too much or too little? It's all Dad's compensation, we have to keep it. After all, our family has debts to pay off, and every household counts their pennies when spending money. Whoever lends us money also saves it from their own teeth. Moreover, Dad needs to rest for a long time and recover his body, and our family of five needs to eat, drink, and wear clothes. This money looks like a lot, but who knows how much will be left after paying off the debt? It's only enough for us to spend a few more days." Tianyuan smiled and responded, saying all this without revealing exactly how much money there was.
"Is your rice cooked? The whole afternoon, people's shadows don't know where they went, all day just knowing to run around everywhere playing!" Tian Ma Chun urged somewhat impatiently. Looking at Wu Yu Gui like that, it didn't seem like he was calling him to eat because the rice was cooked, "Still not cooking rice, you want to starve someone to death?"
"Go ahead and go!" Wu Yugui hummed, "It's still better to be the boss, got injured, and people will send money to your doorstep without doing anything. This money is really easy to earn!"
