Chapter 19 Chapter 18 Lessons Learned

In the evening the children parted.Emile solemnly promised them to go to the professor's house with Bonnie tomorrow afternoon.After a while, Uncle Haim came back, and the family began to have dinner.After dinner, Uncle Heim handed over a thousand marks to his sister-in-law Frau Tischbein and advised her to deposit the money in the bank. "I thought so too," said the barber. "No!" Emil said loudly. "What does it mean to me if it's stored. Anyway, Mom has to buy a hair dryer and a fur coat.I have no idea what you guys think!This money belongs to me, and I can spend it as I like!can't you? "

"Spend it as you like, and so," said Uncle Heim. "You're still a child. How the money is spent is up to your mother to decide. " Emil got up, left the table and walked towards the window. "Why, Heim, you're so mean," Bonnie said to her father. "Didn't you see, how happy Emil is to give his mother something? You adults are so clueless sometimes." "Of course, she must buy a hair dryer and a fur coat," said grandma. "But the rest of the money is going to be deposited in the bank. Are you right, my boy?" "Yes," Emile replied. "Good mother, do you agree?"

"If you, a rich man, are sincere, of course I agree!" "We'll go shopping early tomorrow morning. Bonnie, you can go too!" Emil said contentedly. "Do you want to go shopping and let me stay at home to kill flies?" said the cousin. "But you have to buy something yourself. Of course, Aunt Tischbein should buy a hair dryer, and you should buy a bicycle, understand, so you don't damage your cousin's bicycle." gone." "Emil," asked Mrs. Tischbein worriedly, "did you break Bonnie's car?" "It's not broken at all, Mom, I just raised her seat a little bit higher. She always rides so low, just to look like a racer. She looks like a monkey like that to me." Riding a bike is ridiculous."

"You're the monkey," said Bonnie loudly. "If you pull out my car seat again, we'll blow it up, you see." "If it weren't for seeing you as a girl, thin as a stick, I would teach you a lesson. Besides, I don't want to be angry today, but I don't need to use the money to buy things for myself. You don't care." Emil stubbornly stuck two fists into his trouser pockets. "Don't quarrel, don't fight, I think it's better for you to punch out your eyeballs," my grandma persuaded from the side, which changed the topic. After a while Uncle Helm took the dog out.It turned out to be the case: the Heims didn't have a dog at all, but whenever Bonnie's dad went out for a beer at night, Bonnie always said something like this: Dad took the dog out.

After Uncle Haim left, Grandma, Emile's mother, Bonnie's mother, Bonnie and Emil sat in the room together, talking about the exciting things that had happened in the past two days. "Now it looks like there might be a good side to it," said Aunt Marta. "Of course," said Emil. "I did learn a lesson from this: trust no one." Emile's mother said: "My lesson is: never let a child travel alone." "Nonsense!" grumbled Grandma. "You're wrong to say that, you're wrong to say that!" "Nonsense, bullshit, bullshit!" Bonnie sings as he rides a chair across the room.

"So, does grandma mean that you didn't learn anything from this incident?" asked Aunt Marta. "Of course I learned it," said grandma. "So what did you learn?" Everyone asked in unison. "The money has to be sent to me by the post office at any time," said grandma, laughing like a music box. "Hurrah!" Bonnie yelled, rattling on a chair into the bedroom.
