The shock of 8 yuan and 50 cents

in family •  6 years ago 

One day at noon, a woman picking up junk goods and selling them at the junk purchase station, riding a tricycle back, passing an unmanned alley, flew out of the corner of the alley, a gangster. The gangster held a knife in his hand. He put the knife against the woman's chest and ordered the woman to hand over all the money. The woman was so frightened that she stood there motionless.

The gangster began to search. He found a plastic bag from the woman's pocket, which contained a pile of money.

The gangster took the stack of money and turned around and left. At this time, the woman responded and immediately rushed forward and snatched the plastic bag. The gangster stabbed the woman with a knife and threatened her to let go. The woman held the money bag tightly in both hands and never let go.

While the woman died to protect the bag, while desperately calling for help, the cry alarmed the residents in the alley, people came to hear the sound and jointly caught the gangsters.

People escorted the gangsters and led the women into the nearby police station. A policeman received them. At the trial, the gangsters confessed to the robbery. And the woman stood there shivering and sweating. The policeman comforted her: "You don't have to be afraid." The woman answered, "I hurt so much that my finger was broken by him." As she raised her right hand, people realized that her right index finger was soft and drooping.

I would rather break my finger than let go of my purse. It shows the number and weight of the purse. The policeman opened the plastic bag with the money. All of the people present were shocked. There were only 8 yuan and 50 cents in the bag, all of which were dime and two cents in change.

For eight dollars and five cents, a broken finger and a criminal, it's really not worth it. For a moment, the town was in uproar.

Police are confused: what strength is supporting this woman, so that she can break her finger in the pain of still not give up the area's 8 cents and 50 cents? He decided to find out. So, after sending a woman to a hospital for treatment, he followed her behind in order to find the answer to the question.

But surprisingly, soon after the woman walked out of the hospital gate, she picked up the fruit on a fruit stand and took it so seriously. She bought a pear, an apple, an orange, a banana, a sugarcane and a strawberry for 8 yuan and 5 cents. She picked one from every fruit stand until she spent 8 yuan and 5 cents on nothing.

The police opened their mouths in surprise. Is it possible to save eight dollars and fifty cents at the expense of one finger in order to buy some fruit to taste?

The woman took a bag of fruit and went straight out of the city to the suburban cemetery. Police found that the woman went to a secluded place where there was a new tomb. The woman stood in front of the new tomb for a long time, her face seemed to have a happy smile. Then she leaned the bag against the tombstone and murmured to herself, "Son, mother is sorry for you. Mother has no ability, can't cure your disease, let you just 13 years old early died. Do you remember? When you came, my mother asked you what your greatest wish was. You said: I have never eaten good fruit, if only I could eat a good fruit. Mother ashamed to you, even your last wish can not be satisfied, in order to give you treatment, the family has not even bought a fruit money. But, boy, by yesterday, my mother had finally paid off all the debts she had borrowed for your treatment. Mother earned another 8 yuan and 50 cents today, son. Mother can buy fruit. You see, oranges, pears, apples and bananas are all good. It's all the perfect fruits that Mom paid for you, not rotten at all. Mom carefully selected one by one. You eat them, kid, you taste them..."
