- Chapter 215 - Found It
When Lu Ting saw Jixiang and Ruyi running over, he intentionally placed the red plastic bag in a spot where they would easily see it, then hid in the nearby bushes.
As Jixiang and Ruyi skipped past, Lu Jixiang abruptly stopped.
He recognized the red plastic bag. Upon picking it up, he realized that it was their lost money.
“Ruyi, wait a second. Look, isn’t this our lost money?”
“I see it, so it was lost here. Check if the money is still inside!”
Imagine if they opened the red plastic bag and found the money still there. The two kids would dance with joy. It felt like it was truly a fate. Despite losing the money for so many days, they had found it again.
“How did it end up here? Did we come here last time?”
“We should have. We were in such a hurry that day, I don’t remember where we went. Maybe we really did lose it here. But anyway, finding it is what matters. We finally found it, and now we can report it back.”
Jixiang and Ruyi happily chatted as they went home dancing and hopping.
When they arrived, Xu Yuxia was sweeping the floor. Seeing Jixiang and Ruyi, she instinctively asked if they had been playing around.
“Stop playing and go wash your hands. You need to do your homework soon.”
“Mom, look, I found our money.”
“Yes, mom. We finally found our money.”
“You mean the money you lost last time? Where did you find it?”
Seeing them say they found the money, Xu Yuxia quickly opened the red plastic bag.
Inside was indeed the money she thought was lost. Seeing it made her feel like crying.
Xu Yuxia had thought that the money was gone for good, and now that it was back, her emotions were mixed.
But when she asked Jixiang and Ruyi where they found it, their answer left her somewhat stunned.
“If the money was really lost there, someone would have picked it up already. Why would they wait for you to find it? Are you sure that’s where you lost it?”
Jixiang and Ruyi might be easily fooled, but adults were not so gullible.
However, Jixiang and Ruyi felt there was nothing wrong.
Lu Jixiang thought for a moment and explained in childish words.
“Well, it was in a plastic bag and others wouldn’t know it was money. Maybe no one noticed it. Plus, look at all the dust on the bag. It must have been here a while.
So no one must have noticed it. As for us, we just happened to see it while playing there.”
Although this explanation wouldn’t convince Xu Yuxia, she couldn’t argue against it.
After all, finding it was a stroke of luck.
That evening, when Xu Yuxia gave the money to Old Mrs. Lu, Old Mrs. Lu felt tears welling up.
Losing something and finding it again was one of the happiest things that could happen to Old Mrs. Lu.
When Old Mrs. Lu learned that Jixiang and Ruyi had picked up the money and that it was exactly the same amount she had saved and not a penny missing, she even cooked two extra dishes that night to encourage Jixiang and Ruyi.
She praised them for having such good eyes to find the money.
“I’ve already given the money to my grandma!”
