The unlucky life of a medical student

The trip to Paris attached to the Asia-Africa-Europe Monster Exchange Summit ended soon, but Zhong Wuchuan's busyness did not end.

After getting off the plane, the first thing he did was to book a ticket back to his hometown.

"You want to go back to your hometown?"

Seeing his move with sharp eyes, Xu Guangcheng asked curiously.

"Yeah, with so many cosmetics, we can't send them all back by express!" Zhong Wuchuan said, "What if there is violent sorting? What if they are sent to the wrong place? Also, there is no charge for these things..."

"It seems that none of your relatives are fuel-efficient lamps."

Xu Guangcheng touched his chin.

Zhong Wuchuan quickly defended himself, saying, "No, no, no, my relatives are all good people, they won't take advantage of me, they just pay more attention to details."

"Turtle hair, right?"

Zhong Wuchuan nodded.

Xu Guangcheng said, "Where is your hometown?"

"Home..."

Zhong Wuchuan raised his head with nostalgic eyes.

……

……

"Unexpectedly, there is such a simple and natural town in the 21st century..."

After leaving the station, Xu Guangcheng couldn't help feeling emotional.

This is a long-distance station built in the 80s. 30 years of wind and rain have made the once glamorous station haggard, although the equipment in the station has been newly replaced in recent years.

"It's just a small [-]th-tier county, how can it compare with a first-tier big city."

Zhong Wuchuan hailed a gaudy-looking three-wheeled motorcycle at the station entrance and said, "Go to Twist Le Town!"

"New York Town?"

Because Zhong Wuchuan reported the place names in dialect, Xu Guangcheng misunderstood for a while and heard "Twisting Music" as "New York".

The coachman was overjoyed when he heard this, and said while driving: "Handsome guy, this is your first time visiting our Zhongshan Twist Le Town!"

"How do you know I'm here for the first time?"

Xu Guangcheng didn't hide it.

The coachman said: "People who come here for the first time are like this. They will hear Twist Town as New York Town. Twist Town used to be the poorest place here. There used to be a little song called 'America has New York, Zhongshan There is Twist, New York is full of gold, Twist is full of shit'. Fortunately, mines have been opened on the mountain in recent years, and Twist Town has also become rich."

"It's called 'Zhongshan' here? But on my ticket..."

"'Zhongshan' is the local people's own name. Legend has it that a long, long time ago, this place was called Evil Mountain, and there were monsters, plagues and beasts everywhere. Killed 99 monsters for the Evil Mountain, and settled here. The local people were grateful for their kindness, so they renamed the Evil Mountain Zhongshan. There are fairy tombs on the mountain, and the Zhongshui River at the foot of the mountain. The stone facing the Immortal Tomb is called the Immortal Stone..."

The coachman was obviously very proud of the local legend, and he introduced it endlessly along the way.

After a while, the three-wheeled motorcycle arrived at its destination.

……

Because Zhong Wuchuan had already called his hometown before boarding the long-distance bus, after Zhong Wuchuan got off the bus with Xu Guangcheng, a man and a woman walked up, and the woman asked, "Xiao Wu?!"

"You are……"

Zhong Wuchuan thought for a while and said, "Cousin Qianqian?"

"cousin!"

The woman and Zhong Wuchuan hugged each other, and after greeting each other, they introduced, "This is my husband. He got married just a few years ago, and his name is Cai Mingkang."

"Hello Brother Clock, I'm Cai Mingkang!"

Cai Mingkang greeted Zhong Wuchuan warmly.

Zhong Wuchuan thought about it. Years ago, he did receive a wedding invitation from his cousin, but because he was receiving treatment in the hospital at that time, he could only send a red envelope on WeChat to congratulate him.

"It turns out that you are Cai Mingkang. It's a little different from the photos posted in the group."

"The photos are all retouched," Cai Mingkang said, "I do retouching in a photo studio, how can I not make myself look better! Look better, Qianqian will have face!"

During the conversation, Zhong Wuchuan's cousin noticed Xu Guangcheng, and hurriedly asked, "Cousin, who is this handsome guy!"

"He is my friend, named Xu Guangcheng, not very talkative, but has a good personality." Zhong Wuchuan said, "Old Xu, this is my cousin, Zhu Qianqian, and this is her husband, Cai Mingkang."

Afterwards, the three shook hands respectively to express their politeness.

It was the first time in Zhu Qianqian's life that he saw Xu Guangcheng's handsome type, and he was also a friend of his cousin, so he couldn't help asking questions. Xu Guangcheng was a little impatient, but he didn't show it clearly.

Cai Mingkang took the initiative to talk to Zhong Wuchuan all the way, trying to win the favor of this cousin who is said to be working in a big city.

The four of them walked into the town all the way.

When passing by the game hall, Cai Mingkang was suddenly stopped by someone and said, "Xiao Cai, did you pick up the red envelope this time? How much?"

"No no!"

Cai Mingkang shook his head quickly, and his expression became flustered.

Because Zhong Wuchuan was right next to Cai Mingkang, seeing the change in his expression, he was immediately curious and said, "Xiao Cai, what do you mean by picking up a red envelope? You can't be..."

"how is this possible!"

Cai Mingkang smiled dryly and pushed the person who pulled him away, and explained to Zhong Wuchuan: "Picking up red envelopes is a very popular game in our area recently. Every Sunday night, someone will spread red envelopes in the town, with a total amount of 1 yuan. , divided into 49 shares, the person who picks up the red envelope with the largest amount must spill 49 red envelopes with a total amount of 1 yuan before next Sunday, otherwise it will..."

"What will happen?"

Xu Guangcheng also stopped, as if he was very interested in the red envelope.

Cai Mingkang looked around and whispered, "I will die! The body was cut into 49 pieces!"

"These are all urban rumors!" Zhong Wuchuan disagreed, "Also, since it is a 'death red envelope', people who pick up a large amount of red envelopes will definitely not let others know that they have picked up a red envelope, how can they be sure that they picked it up? The one with the largest amount?"

"Because...because..."

Cai Mingkang took a breath and took out his wallet.

There is a note in the wallet: What you picked up is the largest amount among the 49 wallets this time. Please be sure to send out 49 red envelopes with a total amount of 1 yuan before next week, otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences!

The text is printed, and a time is written in the place where the signature is signed, which is the second Sunday of last month.

Cai Mingkang said: "I accidentally picked up this red envelope in the third week of last month, and then quickly prepared 49 red envelopes and sent them out at night...the one with the largest amount also contained a note with the same content ..."

"I went to the town to bring the money stuffed into the red envelope," Zhu Qianqian said. "That night, we were very scared."

"Why do you all believe the note in the red envelope? Did something happen before?"

What Zhong Wuchuan was curious about was this.

Cai Mingkang said: "Yes, something happened... At first, someone received a red envelope with a note in it, and didn't take it seriously... Three days later... Three days later... there was a note at the scene, saying, no photo was taken. If you do things according to the note, this money is his life money!"

"For a red envelope of 1 yuan, you can get a few thousand yuan at most. It's not worth losing your life for a few thousand yuan!" Zhu Qianqian echoed.

Zhong Wuchuan looked at Xu Guangcheng: "Old Xu, what do you think about this?"

Xu Guangcheng said: "I didn't pick up the red envelope, how do I know what's going on?"

"makes sense."

Zhong Wuchuan asked Cai Mingkang again: "Since picking up red envelopes may kill you, why did someone ask you just now if you picked up red envelopes again this time? Are you still secretly picking up red envelopes?"

"The money that falls from the sky is not for nothing." Cai Mingkang said, "These 49 red envelopes can have at least 50 yuan! If you are lucky, you may be able to pick up a few hundred yuan or even one or two thousand for nothing!"

"That's right, even if you accidentally pick up the one with the largest amount, it's just a little bit of money to return the red envelope! There's a 49 in [-] chance, it's worth it!"

Zhu Qianqian also agrees that her husband is a fool not to take advantage.

Zhong Wuchuan had heard of it, but he only had one thought in his mind: If there is a pie in the sky, there must be a hole in the ground.

……

……

In the evening, in the private room of Fugui Hotel in Twist Le Town, the Zhong family was packed.

Before the dishes were served, everyone smiled and toasted Zhong Wuchuan and his friends. The young guy asked about the bustle of the big city and the salary, the young girls looked at Xu Guangcheng with fiery eyes, and the seven aunts and eight aunts were talking in a usual empty manner. After pretending to be affectionate, I moved the topic to——

"Xiao Zhong, you're not young anymore, have you talked with your girlfriend yet? When will you bring it back for us to see!"

"How much is it a month now? Is the unit good? Can you introduce my family's one too?"

"I heard that you traveled to France this time. It's so beautiful! Is it the welfare of the unit?"

……

The inquiries on the wine table were like mosquitoes buzzing, causing Zhong Wuchuan to have three big heads.

In order to calm things down, he could only take out the cosmetics he bought for these relatives when he was in Paris: "Third Aunt, this is the Chanel foundation and perfume you want, do you think..."

"Look at you kid, didn't I just say something casually, you really remembered it! This thing costs a lot of money, right?"

The third aunt smiled hypocritically, and while saying the polite words of "is it very expensive", she took the foundation and perfume.

Zhong Wuchuan had no choice but to say: "The price in Paris is much cheaper than in China... probably nearly half the price!"

"Ah! Is it that much cheaper?"

The third aunt heard the news, opened the family WeChat group, sent Zhong Wuchuan a 100 yuan red envelope in front of all relatives, and said, "Xiao Zhong, the third aunt is not taking advantage of you!"

Other relatives also followed suit. After taking the cosmetics entrusted to Zhong Wuchuan to buy in advance, they all sent him a 100 yuan red envelope in the WeChat group in a hypocritical way!

The author has something to say:

If Zhong Tong's boots hadn't taken this trip, [-]% of them wouldn't be able to get back one hundred dollars per person, and they would have to pay the postage upside down, and relatives complained in the WeChat group that the items were crushed by violent transportation when they received them. It was broken, or it directly stated that it did not receive the courier...

They don't think they are too much. They think that Xiao Zhong has a bachelor's and master's degree, works in a big city, and the company also organizes a trip to France. It must be a small amount of money.

In fact, Xiao Zhong... the money used to pad the cosmetics was contributed by Qilin's lottery... He was so poor that he almost begged Lao Xu to take care of him
