 1  A waiter has returned a check worth nearly 424,000 dollars to a retired social worker who lost it. The waiter found a bank envelop while cleaning off a table last Saturday at restaurant. He ran outside but the customer was gone. He opened the envelop and got a shock. After an unsuccessful search, the restaurant's owner called the Daily News for help. The “relieved” customer was reunited with her check on Wednesday. It contained money from her apartment sale, already planned for a down payment on a new home. The customer did not tip the waiter after her meal.  2  She tried to give him money later on, but he graciously declined. The waiter, who's working his way through school, did accept the customer's apology and gratitude and said it was happy to have helped her.

 1  一名服务员将一张价值近42.4万美元的支票归还给了丢失支票的退休社工。上周六,这位服务员在餐厅清理桌子的时候发现一个银行信封。他追出去,但是顾客已经不见了。他打开信封,大吃一惊。在找寻未果后,餐厅老板打电话给《每日新闻》寻求帮助。那位“如释重负”的顾客在周三重新拿到了她的支票。信封中有她出售公寓所得的钱款,这笔钱已经计划好要用作新房子的首付。顾客在吃完饭后没有给服务员小费。 后来她试图给这位服务员钱,但他婉言谢绝了。这位勤工俭学的服务员接受了顾客的道歉和感激之情,并表示很高兴帮到了她。
