Mr. He slowed down the car to the slowest speed possible and prepared to secretly follow behind Adai.
However, this seriously affected the speed of the cars behind them. It was obviously not going to work.
The country road was narrow, and it was difficult to let the car pass. When the speed in front slowed down, the car behind was about to stall.
After a while, the cars behind them began to honk crazily.
Zhang Zifeng suggested,"Teacher He, why don't you guys go buy beer first? I'll follow behind Adai. When the time comes, I'll use my phone to send you the location."”
Hearing this, Teacher He nodded in agreement and said,"I'm worried about you going alone. How about this? Let Peng Peng go with you.”
Peng Peng nodded in agreement. He was just about to take the initiative to volunteer, but he didn't expect Teacher He to say it already.
He thought to himself, How can I miss out on something like this?
At the thought of this, a sly smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
"Teacher He, I'll go with them too. Maybe I can help!”Meng Meiqi took the initiative to speak. In fact, she was very curious about why Dumby came to the town alone.
Mr. He nodded." Go, go, go. I can handle the beer alone!"”
"Teacher He, I'll accompany you!" Wei Daxun smiled.”
The five of them split into two groups and acted separately.
Peng Peng and the other two got out of the car and secretly followed behind Dumby.
Mr. He drove to the nearby supermarket to buy fruit beer, which was rarely sold in small village shops.
"The two of you listen to my command. Don't let Adai discover you!”Peng Peng looked at Meng Meiqi and the other two and instructed them softly. It was as if his face was saying, I am the leader, listen to all the arrangements!
Zhang Zifeng rolled his eyes at Peng Peng and said,""Brother, we're not thieves. Why are we being so sneaky? We followed behind Dumby just to protect him. Even if he finds out, it's nothing.”
" It's better not to be discovered by him," Meng Meiqi said with a smile." Otherwise, he'll feel awkward and uncomfortable."”
"However, there's no need for us to be sneaky. Just follow him openly. If he finds out, just pretend to have a chance encounter. After all, you're both actors.”
Zhang Zifeng agreed,"Sister Meng is right. We'll just follow from afar!"”
Peng Peng saw that the two women had reached a consensus. He knew that it was useless to say anything else. He could only obey the majority.
Then, the three of them followed from afar, not daring to get too close.
After a while, the three of them realized that Dumby was searching for something along the way. It kept looking at the road.
"Did Adai drop something? What is he looking for? Should we go up and help?”Zhang Zifeng asked with concern.
"Wait a little longer. Don't be anxious!" Meng Meiqi said hesitantly.”
The three of them continued to watch. After a while, they saw Dumby walk to an empty mineral water bottle by the roadside and bend down to pick it up.
"Why did Dumby pick that up?"
Meng Meiqi muttered softly. Then, she realized something and a strange emotion surged in her heart.
"He probably picked up empty bottles to sell for money. But how much can a bottle be worth? Even if he picked them up for an entire night, he wouldn't be able to sell them for much, right?”Peng Peng said in confusion.
In his opinion, Dumby should use this time to study hard. Getting into a good high school was more important.
Studying could change one's fate. It was especially suitable for rural children!
Zhang Zifeng watched for a while and said softly,""For us, perhaps we don't even care about the money from selling the beverage bottles. However, for a poor child who had no other way to earn money, it might be money to survive!”
Hearing this, the three of them fell silent.
At this moment, Dumby found another empty bottle and picked it up.
In order to pick up more bottles, he had specially prepared a gunny sack. Now that there were too many bottles, he could not hold them with his hands, so he took out the gunny sack and stored them.
The three of them looked at a thin figure shuttling through the heavy traffic. They all wanted to go forward and help, but they couldn't bear to do something like picking up a drink bottle.
The three of them did not feel too good following him like this. They only felt that they were suffering.
After about ten minutes, Dumby had already picked up a few beverage bottles.
However, the town was only so big. Other than the two main roads that had a little more beverage bottles, it was basically difficult to pick up anywhere else.
Even if there were, they would have been picked up by those old people.
Without any prey, Dumby took these bottles directly to the junkyard to sell.
The three of them watched from afar and saw the owner of the junkyard give Dumby five yuan.
When Adai received the money, he was filled with joy.
However, he did not stop and rushed to the next place without stopping.
The three of them continued to follow. They were not as happy as Dumby, but their hearts were heavy.
At this moment, the three of them wondered what Dumby would do with the five yuan.
