Chapter 274 - Insulting People with Money (Asking for Subscription)
Liu Qingshan worked with his father for a morning in the morning, and in the afternoon, Liu Erliang and Tan Dasha didn't know where to get the news, and they also came to help with their own tools.
With the addition of two people, the construction of this bathroom went more smoothly.
Digging foundations, making foundations, digging septic tank pits, digging mud channels for sewage pipes, digging walls to open doors, building walls, capping and so on are done very smoothly.
In particular, it takes a few days for the cement to harden, so you have to rest for a few days in the middle of the process. In the past few days of rest, everyone has not been idle, and together they have filled in the big hole in the yard that has not been filled.
After filling in the big hole, the wall is built, the urinal is covered, the floor is laid, and so on.
It took nearly ten days to complete these tasks.
In the blink of an eye, it's more than 20 months of the lunar month, tomorrow is the New Year, and there is still some finishing work today.
Originally, Tan Dasha and Liu Erliang said yesterday that they would not come today, but Liu Qingshan had to call them over.
So, the two came to Liu Qingshan's house early in the morning and helped to do some finishing work together.
In the afternoon, the bathroom has been cleaned up, and even the water pipes have been temporarily pulled in through the windows, temporarily solving the water problem in the bathroom.
Looking at the new and bright bathroom, Tan Dasha was not envious: "Qingshan, your bathroom is really big, more than a dozen square meters, and my room is so big." ”
Tan Dasha's house was built by the government, and it is pitifully small.
Liu Qingshan said with a smile: "Haha, it's okay, Uncle Dasha, you work so hard, you will definitely be able to live in a bigger house in the future." ”
"Well, I hope I can, tomorrow I will go to the kiln to get charcoal, and I will sell it for a few thousand dollars. When Tan Dasha thought of this, he smiled happily.
On the other hand, Liu Erliang was not so happy.
After all, in the depths of winter, he really has no income.
Nowadays, I just go up to the mountains to chop some firewood and do some farm work, and basically there is no economic income. Naturally, I don't know how to spend this year.
Lunch was quite rich.
Several people gathered around the table and laughed, and the food was fragrant, which made Liu Erliang forget the trouble of having no money for a while.
These days, the Aoyama family has been eating heartily. Because the two of them came to help with the work, they couldn't treat the two of them badly, so there were meat and fish for lunch and dinner, which was very beautiful.
Halfway through lunch, Liu Qingshan got up and went back to the room, and when he came out, he held two stacks of red coins in his hand.
Seeing this, Tan Dasha and Liu Erliang didn't think much about it, they just thought that he was going to give money to his parents.
It wasn't until Liu Qingshan put the money in front of the two that the two were taken aback.
"Qingshan, what are you doing here?" Liu Erliang frowned, staring at the red banknotes in front of him, very puzzled.
"Second uncle, this money is for you, two thousand yuan per person, not much, you take it. Liu Qingshan said with a smile.
He laughed, but Liu Erliang and Tan Dasha didn't laugh.
Looking at the money, both of them were a little unhappy in their hearts, and naturally they couldn't smile on their faces.
"Qingshan, what do you mean by this?" Although Tan Dasha is stupid, he also knows that he didn't come for money from the beginning, but now Qingshan is taking out money, isn't it an insult.
Liu Erliang was also unhappy, very unhappy with a straight face.
Although he was still worried about the lack of money for the New Year just now, he never thought of taking money from Qingshan.
Wu Cuimei and Liu Yuanhe didn't understand what their son meant, and they both looked at him in surprise.
Liu Qingshan saw that the atmosphere suddenly froze, so he hurriedly explained: "Don't think too much, okay? In the past ten days, you have been helping me to work, and these jobs were originally done by myself, but because of the previous honey picking, it has been delayed until today." So, I really don't mean anything else, I just want to thank you all too much, and without you, these things wouldn't have been done so quickly. ”
"You didn't help us less. Tan Dasha frowned and said, "But we haven't given you any money, but now you are taking out the money, isn't this a humble person." ”
"That is, if you take back the money, then we can continue to communicate with each other, if you do this, then we will not communicate with each other from now on, and don't call us if you have something. Liu Erliang also put down his cruel words.
Liu Qingshan was very helpless, and explained several times in succession, saying that he didn't mean that, he just wanted to thank them, but the two were very stubborn and insisted on refusing to accept money.
In desperation, Liu Qingshan had no choice but to take the money back.
In this way, the smiles on the faces of the two of them were renewed.
After eating, the two went home with their tools.
On the way, Liu Erliang said: "Actually, Qingshan really doesn't mean anything else, he just wants to thank us simply, Dasha, don't think he's insulting people." ”
Tan Dasha laughed and said: "Of course I know that Qingshan has no other meaning, I said that he insulted people, and he said that on purpose, if he didn't say so, how could he take the money back." You said, Qingshan usually helps us so much, let's just help him do some work, where is he embarrassed to ask for his money. ”
"yes. Liu Erliang empathizes.
Although Qingshan didn't help his family much, Qingshan often bought all kinds of delicious food for Zihui and them.
Thanks to Qingshan's blessing, now the three little nephews in the family no longer have to watch other people's children eat candy and snacks while they can only swallow saliva.
In this regard, Qingshan is a hundred times better than the children's father, Liu Daliang. Based on this alone, he can't ask for Qingshan's money.
After Liu Qingshan put the money away, Liu Yuanhe said with a smile: "Qingshan, since they don't want it, then you can give it to me." ”
"What are you doing?" Liu Qingshan squinted at his father, "That's four thousand yuan, what do you want so much money for?"
Liu Yuanhe said with a smile: "Of course it's for buying things, Qingshan, you see that the end of this year is approaching, and there are a lot of things to buy at home, all kinds of New Year's goods, and other things, all of which cost money to buy." “
Liu Qingshan laughed and stared at his father: "Dad, don't fight the ghost idea, I will naturally buy these things, I don't need you to worry about it." ”
Wu Cuimei had just come back from the courtyard, and when she heard that the old man was actually asking for her son's money, she didn't say a word, and came up with a slap: "You want to cheat money again, don't you? I didn't give you back fifty yuan yesterday." Where's the money, where did you spend it?"
Liu Yuanhe covered his arms aggrievedly: "Didn't I buy vegetables yesterday?"
"You just bought more than a pound of pork, less than two catties, there must be money left, what about the money, where did you spend it?" Wu Cuimei asked.
Liu Yuanhe shouted aggrievedly: "The pork is more than 30 yuan a catty." It's almost fifty yuan a pound. ”
"That's pretty much it, that's how many dollars are left, since there are still a few dollars, what are you asking your son for money? How many times have I told you, my son's money is all hard-earned money, don't you think it's easy for him to make money, okay?"
Listening to the words of the two of them, Liu Qingshan couldn't cry or laugh.
Alas, it's terrible to be strict with your wife.
However, then again, it's not that he is reluctant to give his father money, but he is really afraid that his father will spend it indiscriminately.
Dad, a person who floats when he has a little money, always likes to carry it in his pocket, and he is the kind of person who is very careless, and often loses money, just at home, Liu Qingshan and his mother can always pick up the money that falls out of his trouser pocket, not to mention how much he will lose outside.
Alas, it's hard. Liu Qingshan shook his head and went to work.
