Until he returned home, Wendell still hadn't thought about what to say to his mother about his winning the lottery, the 60, 000 was definitely something he couldn't say, after all, for this family that had been poor for more than ten years, this 60, 000 was definitely not a small amount, maybe his mother would suspect where this money came from and think that Wendell was doing something bad outside. .
In order to keep his mother from worrying, Wendell thought of various possibilities.
In the end, he decided that it would be better to tell about the 10, 000 he had gotten first, and that the number would have to be lowered to say only five thousand.
"Wendell, why do you look a bit dazed, are you tired from going out to play today?" The mother, Helen, couldn't help but say with some concern as she watched her son's face change, "Could it be that the day was too hot and he got heatstroke?"
"No, mother don't worry about it!" Wendell couldn't help but laugh, "I'm just so happy that I don't know what to say!"
Having made up his mind, Wendell decided to go step by step, to give his mother a process of acceptance.
"Happy?" Helen was a little surprised, "You kid, how come you still look sad when you're happy?"
Wendell nodded and deliberately complained, "mum, you don't know, today our class went on a field trip, but we happened to go to a lottery shop to play, and I played a few games with my classmates!"
"And then what happened?" Helen asked, "Wendell, did all the money go to you to buy lottery tickets and there was no pocket money left?"
Seeing his mother's concerned look, Wendell couldn't help but feel a sourness in his heart and shook his head, "No, I could have won the grand prize of 10, 000 , but I ended up not buying it because I saw that scratch-off wasn't nice, and it ended up being bought by a student in our class and won 10, 000 ! Really, if I had won the jackpot, you wouldn't have had to work so hard, Mum, it's all my fault for not being bold enough!"
"Silly child, there's no such thing as a correct lottery ticket, you're right not to buy it, no one can say how lucky people are!" Helen shook her head and laughed, comfortingly saying, "Since you didn't win, then why are you still happy?"
Wendell said, "I didn't win the big prize, but, I won a small prize, a whole five thousand !"
"How much?" Helen was stunned.
"mum, you heard it right, no more, no less, a whole five thousand !" Wendell stretched out a hand and waved it in front of Helen's eyes, pretending to be smug, "mum, am I not very impressive?"
A smile appeared on Helen's face as she said, "Wendell, you really won five thousand ?"
Wendell nodded and said, "Yes, mum, this is the bonus, look, I got it all back!"
However, Helen's eyebrows were slightly knitted as she asked, "Wendell, you didn't do anything bad outside, did you? It's a rare thing to win that lottery, how come your classmate won ten thousand dollars and you still won five thousand? Isn't that a bit much?"
Wendell suddenly choked, he suddenly realized that after making up a lie for a while, it was still full of holes. Yes, the chances of winning a lottery ticket were very small, and a scratch-off lottery was even smaller, so how could you win so much?
Although his heart was secretly worried, Wendell's face did not show half of it and he laughed: "That's why I'm happy, mum, think about it, even with such a small chance I can win the lottery, that means I'm very lucky. By the way, our English teacher was also present at that time, so if you don't believe me, you can ask our teacher!"
Once she heard this, Helen was mostly convinced, she couldn't help but laugh, "You child, how can mum not believe you, it's just that mum is worried that you've done something bad outside, if that happens, mum won't forgive you!"
Wendell took his mother's hand and laughed, "Don't worry, mum, I'm your son, even if you don't worry about me, you should still worry about yourself, right? I've inherited your great virtues, I definitely won't do anything bad!"
"You child!" Helen couldn't help but laugh and gave her son a light knock on the head, a strong look of love in her eyes.
"mum, you can take this money first, this is only the first money, when I work later, I can definitely earn more money, then it will be my turn to support you, huh……" Wendell put the money into his mother's hand.
"You ah, can have this heart mum will be satisfied!" Helen put the money in her pocket and said, "This money mum is saving for you, save it for your college!"
"Mm!" Wendell nodded and smiled.
Looking at the wrinkles on his mother's face increasing day by day, he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, his mother was only forty years old, if she was well maintained in the city, I'm afraid she would only look in her early thirties, but now, she looked like she was forty-three or forty-4 years old, if it wasn't for raising how, why would she have worked so hard?
Thinking of this, Wendell remembered the man who had left himself and his mother unattended, and he couldn't help but ask: "mum, let me ask a question, if it's inappropriate, you don't get angry!"
Once Helen heard this, she knew what her son was going to ask, she immediately streat up and said, "Wendell, it's getting late, go to bed early, mum is also tired, she has to go sell vegetables tomorrow!"
After saying that, Helen walked into her room!
Looking at his mother's back, Wendell couldn't help but clench his fist, it must be that man that hurt his mother too deeply, so that she didn't want to mention this matter at all, let alone mention that man!
"I will definitely make you regret ever abandoning my mother!" Wendell secretly gritted his teeth, while secretly deciding that he would never ask this stupid question again, which would only add to his mother's sadness.
Lying on the bed, Wendell's mreat calmed down a bit, he let out a light sigh, it was useless to think about anything now, it was more important to improve his strength first!
Taking a deep breath, Wendell once again entered his mind.
Swish!
The scene in front of him changed, and Wendell saw the wise brain.
"Master, will you start training now?" Seeing Wendell arrive, Wisdom Brain opened the door and asked.
Wendell nodded and said, "Continue training!"
The intelligent brain nodded and said, "According to the training that master has done in the recent period, he can now easily and skillfully done the 4th movement of the body-building exercise, and the next thing that master will learn is the fifth movement. At the same time, from the fifth movement onwards, it will enter the second stage of training. In this second stage, the master will not only continue to practice gymnastics, but also start learning other skills!"
"Other skills?" He had long been looking forward to completing the aerobics training and learning some other knowledge, not only because the knowledge of the future interstellar era was extremely attractive to Wendell, but more importantly, every time he doned a movement in aerobics, the difficulty of the next movement would increase a lot, and this kind of boring and painful training would make Wendell just about to collapse.
"What skills can I learn?" Wendell asked excitedly.
To be continued....
