As a mother, she had worked hard to raise her three children. Naturally, she hoped that her children would learn well, be liked by others, and be praised. Now, they were being accused of being petty thieves and not learning well. Their families were not strict with them. More importantly, they were being criticized by a well-respected scholar in the courtyard. It really made her sad.
Qin Huairu staggered back home. After being criticized like this, she felt that she might not have been able to discipline him properly.
When Qin Huairu returned home, her mind was still filled with the words," I wonder how Sister Qin disciplined her…"
Inside the house, the boy and his two younger sisters were sitting around the table doing their homework. They were so serious that their mother didn't even notice when she came back.
When Qin Huairu saw the textbook, she immediately thought of the word "bad". In a moment of anger, she stepped forward and pinched her ear, scolding,"Where did you go to study so much? What did Mom usually teach you? What did the teacher say in class?”
He still felt that his anger wasn't appeased, so he hit the stick hard. However, it didn't hurt that much even if he wore a thick cotton coat. The person who hit him might hurt more, but the main point was to teach the stick a lesson and let him remember.
"I'll let you steal! You're a thief!"
The meme went from doing homework seriously to suddenly being scolded and beaten by his biological mother. It took him a while to react and said with grievance,"Mom, why did you hit me? I didn't steal that chicken."
"You're still trying to quibble? I already know. She only knew how to cause trouble for her mother. Would he dare to steal again in the future? Let's see what you'll do if you get caught and sent to juvenile detention center!”Qin Huairu berated, her hands moving non-stop.
Qin Huiru's heart palpitated at the thought of that terrifying juvenile detention center, the thought of the boy being bullied there and not having enough to eat or wear.
Although the boy was a petty thief, he was still a filial child. He knew how to care for his mother and take care of his two younger sisters. He knew that his mother was working hard and secretly improved the food for his younger sisters. Looking at his mother's agitated and angry look, although he didn't quite understand what juvenile detention center was, he could vaguely feel that it wasn't a good place.
He cried and shouted,"Mom, don't hit me anymore. I won't dare to do it again!"”
Little Dang and Huai Hua saw that their brother was beaten by their mother because he stole a chicken for them to eat. They felt sorry for their brother and also cried. She even pleaded for her brother's mother,"Mom, don't hit Brother anymore. We won't dare to do it again.”
It hurt the child's body and the mother's heart. Qin Huiru felt bad for herself. How could she not know how greedy children were? She also wanted to improve the food for the children, but the simple food they ate every day was already obtained by her hard work and painstaking efforts. Where could she complain about her hardships and grievances?
At the thought of this, Qin Huiru seemed to be infected by the child's emotions as tears began to flow down her face.
Jia Zhang-shi, who had just returned from a walk, was dumbfounded when she saw the situation in the house. She hurriedly said," Aiyo, what's wrong? Even if I cry, the adults will cry too…"
........................................................................................................................
Qin Huairu's house was in a mess of crying. He Yuheng was secretly happy as he listened to her cries, and the corners of his lips curled up uncontrollably.
"Hey, you laugh when others are crying. Do you owe me anything? Kid, you said those words on purpose for Qin Huairu to hear, right?”He Yuzhu knew what he was thinking when she saw his evil smile.
"Whoever did it is for whoever to hear it. Besides, I was persuading people to stop their losses in time. I was doing a good deed.”
"I don't owe you anything. I owe you, stupid Zhu Zi.”The old lady quickly echoed.
"Alright, alright, alright. I can't win against you two.”He Yuzhu pursed his lips and said angrily after being spoken to by the two of them.
The two brothers chatted with the old lady for a while before returning home.
As soon as he entered, He Yuheng was attracted by the thing on his brother's bed. It was a stack of stamps.
He quickly stepped forward, picked up the stamp, and asked He Yuzhu,""Brother, where did you get this?”
"Where did they come from? Where else could the stamps come from? Of course, they were bought by the post office. I specially bought them for you to send a letter. I was afraid that if you sent one letter a month, it wouldn't be enough, so I bought two sets in one go. I didn't expect you to only use half a set of stamps when you went home.”
"Brother, do you still need these remaining stamps? If it's useless, it's mine!" He Yuheng said happily.
"If you like it, take it. I bought it to write a letter to you. Now that you're back, this stamp is useless.”
He Yuzhu had always been generous, especially to his younger siblings. He was happy to see his younger brother so happy about the stamps.
However, he was also curious about the use of this thing. It couldn't be eaten or exchanged for money.
In this day and age, antiques naturally couldn't be exchanged for money. After the baptism of time, in the 21st century, antiques would be treasures that couldn't be bought even with money.
On June 1st, 1960, the country officially issued a very classic set of stamps. It was the " Goldfish " series in He Yuheng's hands.
There were a total of twelve cards in the big set.
Every item had its own way of counting, and stamps were no exception. If there were more than ten stamps, it was called a big set, if there were less than ten stamps, it was a medium set, and if there were less than four stamps, it was a small set.
These twelve goldfish stamps were all drawn by famous national artists, and it was the first set of colored photographic stamps in the country.
The pictures on it were respectively of the Flipping Gill Fluffy Ball, Black Back Dragon Eyes, Bubble Eyes, Blue Dragon Eyes, Red Tiger Head, Pearl Fish, Skygazing Fish, Red Hat, Purple Hat, Flower Dragon Eyes, Red Dragon Eyes, and Red Head. The paintings were all precious species of goldfish, and they were all introduced on the stamps.
Although it was a special stamp issued by the country, it was not used for special purposes and was not expensive. The theme was specially chosen, so it looked better than ordinary stamps.
"In my previous life, the first complete set of stamps I collected was Special 38. I didn't expect to encounter the first complete set of stamps here. It's really fate. It seems that you are destined to belong to me." He Yuheng muttered to himself while looking at the stamps.
Special 38 was the serial number of this set of goldfish stamps. In fact, this set of stamps was not rare. There were more than four million sets issued nationwide, and the number of stamps left on the market was quite considerable. However, the special thing about this set was that it had not been opened and used. It was in particularly good condition, which was rare. It was brand new, and those who really liked to collect these would be happy to see it.
In 2020, when the collection craze had passed, this set of stamps would still be worth tens of thousands. It was naturally incomparable to those stamps that were worth millions. But then again, it was still better in terms of quality and a full set. This was enough to have a collection value. In the end, the meaning of collecting was to be self-sufficient for personal needs.
