Chapter 639 Where's my money?
Let's go back to about half an hour after Tian Gouzi kicked Bang Geng away.
A cool breeze blew by, and Bang Geng, who was in a semi-conscious state, involuntarily shivered, then slowly awoke.
"Huh? Who am I? Where am I? What happened to me... Ouch~"
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his stomach.
"Damn it! I remember now, who the hell kicked me just now?!"
Despite the pain, Banggeng struggled to look around, trying to find the person who had kicked him.
However, it was pitch black all around, and there was no one in sight.
Hmm~ Could it be a ghost?
Pshaw! There are no ghosts in this world, no ghosts, no ghosts...
"Someone must have ambushed me!"
Don't let me find out who you are, or I'll steal everything from your house... Wait, wait a minute!
Where's my money?!
Bang Geng subconsciously looked at his hand holding the money, but his palm was empty. There wasn't a single penny left!
His mind went blank for a moment.
"Where's my money? I just had it in my hand, how could it just disappear like that?!"
"Could it have been stolen... No! No way!"
"It must have fallen somewhere, I have to find it right away!"
Banggeng lay on the ground like a madman, searching inch by inch for that big black ten, his eyes wide open, afraid that he might miss it if he wasn't careful.
He searched the ground several times, and thoroughly searched the small house inside and out, but he couldn't find a single penny, let alone ten yuan.
"Oh no! Ten yuan has been stolen!"
That's a whole ten yuan! Think of how much meat that could buy!
What a despicable bastard! Absolutely despicable!
Don't let me find out who you are, or I'll rob your house of everything!
At this moment, a flood of negative emotions, such as despair, frustration, regret, and pain, tightly enveloped the stick.
Of course, these negative emotions had absolutely nothing to do with his younger sister Xiaodang being kidnapped; they were purely because he had worked hard all day but hadn't received a single penny.
"What a waste of time and effort!"
But he had no choice but to drag his weary body, dejected and listless, slowly walk towards the courtyard house...
However, after taking only a few steps, Banggeng suddenly stopped.
"Hehe, this time it wasn't a complete loss. At least there's one less money-losing brat at home who's been stealing my food."
Thinking of this, a slight smile crept onto his lips. He continued walking home, feeling more and more energetic, even sensing that a wonderful life was beckoning him.
"Now it's just my mom and me at home, and we don't have to worry about not having enough to eat anymore!"
When Banggeng returned to the courtyard and did the math, he found that the time it took to get back from Pigeon Market was almost half an hour faster than when he went with Xiaodang.
See? Selling Xiaodang, that burden, did have some use.
Because Ma Hua and several of his fellow disciples live in a courtyard house and return home quite late at night, the gate is not locked as early as it used to be.
In this way, Banggeng can seize the opportunity and quietly slip into the middle courtyard.
As he nervously pushed open the door, he racked his brains trying to figure out how to explain to his mother why he was so late and where Xiao Dang had gone...
I was surprised to find that my mother wasn't home after searching the house for a while.
"Phew~ You scared me! Luckily Mom's not home, otherwise it would be hard to explain where Xiao Dang went!"
Bang Geng immediately felt relieved and went straight to bed as if nothing had happened.
However, the fact that Jia Zhangshi's body was still lying on the bed in the outer room made him feel somewhat uneasy.
Fortunately, it's winter now, otherwise Jia Zhangshi would have been ruined long ago.
……
Meanwhile, Qin Huairu was kicked out of Zhang Shihao's house.
