773 Forget the Past to Be Confident
When they arrived at the door of the house, Hu Mingchen and the others saw Jiang Yucheng standing on the steps below the courtyard waiting for them.
"How's it going? The money has been returned?"
"It's back, second uncle, you haven't lost your capital, it's still there. Hu Mingchen replied with a smile.
"Second brother, Xiao Chen not only didn't lose, but also won them all with two cards. Jiang Yuqiang happily gave the good news.
"How much money do you have to win?" Jiang Yucheng said in amazement.
"It's tens of thousands of yuan, hahaha, even the money that the eldest brother lost was won back, and he was given a few thousand more yuan. β
"Tens of thousands? Two hands? How big are you playing, this ...... How did I sound so unreal. Jiang Yucheng was a little dumbfounded.
"Second uncle, there is nothing untrue, take it, this is your capital, and the extra should be your dividends. Hu Mingchen took out the money from his pocket, pulled about half of it and handed it to Jiang Yucheng.
Seeing that the 10,000 he had just taken had now become about 20,000, Jiang Yucheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took the money happily. He wanted to count how much money he had, but when he thought that Hu Mingchen was present and saw that his eldest brother Jiang Yufu was also there, Jiang Yucheng couldn't help it, quickly packed the money, and counted it slowly when he got home.
After separating Jiang Yufu and Jiang Yucheng, Hu Mingchen still has about fifteen thousand in his hand.
"Fourth uncle, you take the money, the third uncle is back, you give him 10,000 yuan, and keep the rest for yourself. Hu Mingchen looked at the rest of the money, and simply stuffed it to Jiang Yuqiang.
"Ah, you don't want a penny?" Seeing Hu Mingchen give all the tens of thousands of yuan he won to the four brothers, Jiang Yuqiang was very surprised.
"The money was originally won, and it didn't belong to me, and besides, I wasn't short of money, so be it. Hu Mingchen waved his hand unmindfully.
"Xiao Chen, go, go, the meal is almost over, your grandmother asked about you just now, I just came here to see if you are here. Jiang Yucheng urged.
Since my grandmother also killed chickens, I had to finish the meal before going home.
When they entered the house, Hu Yandie, Hu Yujiao, Jiang Yufu's Jiang Xiu, Jiang Erhu, Jiang Sanlong, and Jiang Siying and Jiang Meng of Jiang Yucheng's family were also there, and Hu Mingchen's second uncle Li Xiaoice and eldest uncle Xie Ping helped cook.
"You know to gamble in one day, and you have lost all the money at home, and you are embarrassed to come back. When Xie Ping saw Jiang Yufu, he glared at him.
"Oh, what are you talking about, where do I lose, isn't the money all on me. β
"I didn't lose, don't fool me, I looked at the two thousand yuan under my pillow, and it's gone, hum. β
"I'm serious, I don't believe you. In order to prove that the money was still there, Jiang Yufu hurriedly took out the money that Hu Mingchen had just given him and lit it up.
"Wow, big brother looks like he's won. Li Xiaoice came out of the kitchen, saw the money in Jiang Yufu's hand, and said with envy.
"Well, a little, a little. Jiang Yufu nodded awkwardly.
This money was obviously won back by Hu Mingchen, and Jiang Yufu couldn't be cheeky enough to admit that he had won, but if he wanted to deny it, he felt embarrassed and could only be ambiguous.
Just when Jiang Yufu wanted to take the money back, he saw Jiang Dashan's eyes glancing at Hu Yujiao and Hu Yandie, and immediately hurriedly took out four hundred yuan, two hundred yuan for Hu Yujiao and two hundred yuan for Hu Yandie.
"Take it, take it, and my uncle will give you New Year's money. β
Hu Yujiao and Hu Yandie didn't accept it, but the money had already been taken out, and it was impossible for Jiang Yufu to take it back, especially in the presence of Hu Mingchen.
"Uncle take it, you can take it, this is also a part of my uncle's heart. The money has been stuffed into the purse of Jiang Yufu and the two nieces, and they have to return it again, Hu Mingchen hurriedly said.
With Hu Mingchen's words, Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao "reluctantly" accepted this New Year's money.
For Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao, they have not yet gotten the habit of getting New Year's money from their uncle, since they were young, this is the first time in history, and before that, they have never gotten their New Year's money.
Jiang Yucheng watched Jiang Yufu send two hundred to each of them, touched the bundle of money in his pocket, and turned around and secretly took out four hundred pieces to be sent to Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao.
has already received the eldest uncle's New Year's money, and the second uncle will give it again, so it will be difficult not to accept it, Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao suddenly each have an extra 400 yuan.
And just now, Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao had already received 100 yuan of New Year's money from their grandfather each, which added up to a total of 1,000 yuan.
These elders gave pressure on the New Year's money, and it was very natural to skip Hu Mingchen, although Hu Mingchen was younger than Hu Yandie, but none of them were embarrassed to give Hu Mingchen money. Because Hu Mingchen is less short of money than them, and he is richer than them.
Jiang Erhu and Jiang Siying saw that Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao had hundreds of dollars for the New Year, and their envious eyes were incomprehensible, and everyone hoped that grandpa or father could also send them some.
However, it is a pity that they, like Hu Mingchen, were automatically blocked and filtered.
On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Jiang Yufu also gave Jiang Erhu and them money, but each person was twenty yuan, and Jiang Xiu was older, and he only got fifty yuan. How can they be with Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao now, presumably, one is two hundred, ten times that of them, besides, they still get New Year's money from a few relatives, how can this not make Jiang Erhu and Jiang Siying envious and jealous.
In order to entertain Hu Mingchen and his three sisters and brothers, Grandpa Jiang Dashan's family was really grand, and many elders and relatives didn't pay so much attention to it.
A table full of dishes, stir-fried spicy chicken, stewed chicken, bacon, sausages, scrambled eggs, button meat, vermicelli soup, fried meat with shredded potatoes, fried peas, minced meat and tofu......
Moreover, this meal was eaten with everyone, and Hu Mingchen was really a little flattered by this kind of treatment. However, he immediately felt relieved, and in a lively atmosphere, everyone happily ate this meal together.
At the dinner table, Hu Mingchen's three sisters and brothers, Jiang Dashan, Zhang Ju, Jiang Yufu, Jiang Yucheng and Jiang Yuqiang were the chief servants, and the eldest aunt and uncle took the children to sit down at the table.
"Actually, I just wanted to sit at a table with Jiang Siying and them, and sit with my grandparents, uncles, and them, I didn't feel comfortable eating, and I didn't feel full. On the way home, Hu Yujiao complained about the extraordinary treatment she received.
"Speaking of which, I'm not used to it, and I don't feel comfortable with the food one by one. Never before had my uncles been so welcoming. Hu Yandie followed.
"Yes, I remember once at my uncle's house, he gave us sauerkraut, and I didn't think there would be such a change at that time. Hu Yujiao sighed.
"That's because our family is different now, we have money, and if we are still as poor as before, it is estimated that it will not be much better. Hu Yandie agreed, and then looked at Hu Mingchen, who was only walking and not talking, "Xiao Chen, I heard that you gave money to your grandfather?
"Well, give it, my grandfather is 40,000, my uncle is 15,000, my second uncle is about 20,000, my third uncle's family is 10,000, and my fourth uncle is a few thousand yuan. Hu Mingchen did not deny his actions.
"Oh, no wonder you gave us New Year's money, it turned out to be your money. Hu Yujiao was stunned.
"Xiao Chen, why do you give so much?" asked Hu Yandie with a frown.
Hu Mingchen glanced at his sister and sister, and casually broke a small branch from the side of the road: "If you want to say a lot, it's not too much." I know you have some opinions about your uncle and grandmother, but ...... If you think about it carefully, they have actually helped our family, and after all, they are my grandfather and uncle, so I can help if I can. β
"They are too realistic, when our family was poor in the past, we didn't want to see each other, but now our family is rich and enthusiastic, how can real relatives be like this?" Hu Yandie still complained a little.
"In reality, society is like this, whether it is relatives or not, it is difficult to avoid clichΓ©s. Actually, it's not entirely their fault, our family was really not very competitive at that time, and in that case, it was very difficult for people to look up to it. Hu Mingchen said open-mindedly.
"That is, you can figure it out, if it were me, I would have given that money to my grandparents and grandmothers, and other uncles would never take so much. β
"Hahaha, sister, you have to figure it out, what can you do if you can't figure it out? Don't recognize them? Impossible, this relationship can't be avoided, do you want to see your mother and father quarrel over this? Think about it carefully, my uncles are not too good to us, but it doesn't seem to be too much. Even if there are some unpleasant pasts, forget it, only by learning to forget, can we be truly confident. Always dwelling on those unpleasant parts, in fact, we are equivalent to ourselves and ourselves can't get by. Hu Mingchen's words made Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao seem to understand.
When Hu Mingchen and the others returned home, Jiang Yucai heard that Hu Mingchen had gone to be a good money boy, especially giving his grandparents as much as 40,000 yuan, Jiang Yucai felt very happy and relieved.
"Mom, don't worry, as long as our family is good, I will do my best to help my uncle and them. However, the premise is also that they have to fight by themselves and make progress on their own, if they like to gamble like their uncle, and a loss is thousands, then I have no problem, because it is a bottomless pit, and no matter how much money I have, I can lose it all. β
"Well, don't worry, I'll talk to him when I go back, and your third uncle, I heard that he and your third uncle are not at home, I will also talk about them, and you have to go the right way to make money. Jiang Yucai was happy and didn't care about Hu Mingchen's small report.
When Hu Jianjun heard that the household name was divided into more than 100,000 yuan in Jiangjiazhai, he was just deflated, and he did not clearly express his opposition and dissatisfaction.
Although Hu Mingchen said that he would not go to Pengcheng until the ninth and tenth days of the first lunar month, however, he only left on the seventh day of the lunar month, because the land sale money in Zhennan was about to be settled on the eighth day of the lunar month, and the Zhennan city government was also waiting for the money to be used.
