Zhou Fangyuan never thought that his father could say such a thing.

Zhou's father's education level is not high, he dropped out of school after graduating from junior high school, and spent a period of time on the street, when he was eighteen years old, he was sent to work in a ceramic factory by Zhou Fangyuan's grandfather, and after two years of school, he transferred to the team of the Light Industry Bureau, and became a very popular car driver who was generally envied by everyone.

After working as a driver for two years, at the age of twenty-two, Zhou's father married Zhou's mother back home, and gave birth to Zhou Fangyuan at the end of the second year, and then Zhou's father was transferred to the leather shoe factory and became an ordinary worker.

It can be said that the first half of Zhou's father has more experience than many people's lifetimes, especially in the two years when he was a big car driver. may be because of this experience, he has cultivated a good vision, so he can see the pros and cons of this matter more clearly than Zhou's mother.

As for why Zhou's father did not achieve greater success? According to Zhou Fangyuan's analysis, there may be two reasons for this.

First of all, it is the lack of personal ability, although the experience and insight are indeed higher than the average person, but it is only compared with the average person, compared with those successful people, Zhou's father may be a lot worse.

The second is courage and courage, which is a common problem in the Zhou family, that is, the courage is not big enough. This is an era of "supporting the bold and starving the timid", and many people who are brave and dare to take risks have achieved unimaginable success. On the contrary, those who keep to themselves and do not dare to take risks are mostly reduced to ordinary.

For example, Zhou Fangyuan's third uncle is bolder than Zhou's father.

At that time, Zhou Fangyuan's grandfather asked someone to find a relationship to get the opportunity to work at the police station, and the old man hoped that Zhou's father would go over, after all, it was the eldest son, and the daughter-in-law gave birth to a grandson, which can be described as the eldest son and eldest grandson, of course the old man would take extra care. But Zhou's father was concerned about his family, wife and children at that time, and Beitong was more chaotic here, and being a police officer was indeed a more dangerous job. So for his own safety, Zhou's father did not choose to be a policeman, and in the end, the old man asked the third uncle, who had just graduated from high school not long ago, to go to the police station.

At first, it was indeed quite dangerous, and Zhou Fangyuan also heard the third uncle say that when he first joined the work, he was often taken by the leader to perform various dangerous tasks.

But he survived, and was appreciated by the leaders, and now the third uncle is already the deputy director of the Xiaoximen Police Station, and he will become the director in less than two years. Three years later, he became the captain of the economic investigation team, and five years later, he became the deputy director of the Beitong City Public Security Bureau.

Before Zhou Fangyuan was reborn, he was already preparing to be promoted to director.

This is the so-called character determines fate, Dad Zhou doesn't like to take risks, so he can only be an honest ordinary person. The third uncle is adventurous, so he got the matching success.

Well, the gossip is off again.

In short, although Zhou's father is timid, he still has a good vision, and he clearly sees the crisis behind the boom in selling roast sausages, so he supports Zhou Fangyuan's timely withdrawal.

Zhou's mother was told by Zhou's father like this, and she also understood. patted Zhou's father's arm, thinking that he was too talkative.

Dad Zhou could only smile bitterly, for his wife, who will never grow up, what else could he do besides spoiling.

"Yangyang, this matter, well, it was me and your mother who misunderstood you, and we apologize to you. ”

Dad Zhou's expression was straight, and he said very seriously.

Zhou's mother is no longer funny.

Zhou Fangyuan, on the contrary, was in a hurry, in two lifetimes, he had always been wrong, where had he been wronged and misunderstood? Where had he been so solemnly apologized by his parents? All of a sudden, he only felt a little weird, as if the positions of the two sides had been transferred.

"Don't, Dad, Mom, in fact, it should be me who apologizes, blame me for not making it clear to you in advance, it's normal for you to misunderstand, I don't blame you for this," Zhou Fangyuan shook his head again and again, "And I haven't finished speaking, don't worry." ”

As he spoke, Zhou Fangyuan bent down and lifted up a black cloth bag that had been lying on the ground.

In fact, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother were curious about what was in this black cloth bag just now, but Zhou Fangyuan didn't say it, so they didn't ask.

Now that Zhou Fangyuan took the initiative to mention it, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother were a little curious.

"Oh, what's it? It's not like you're selling leftover sausages. I've heard you say so lively, in fact, I've been curious for a long time, and it just so happens that your mother and I will also taste it. ”

"That's right, two yuan a meat sausage is not cheap, there are four ham sausages on top, I want to see, what is so delicious about this grilled sausage, how dare you sell it so expensive!"

Zhou's mother said with a smile on the side.

If you know that this thing was originally sold for three dollars a piece, you still can't stare at it?

Zhou Fangyuan silently spit out in his heart, but his face did not show it, he shook his head.

"Dad, Mom, you guessed wrong, this is not a grilled sausage. Although I want you to taste it too, to be honest, it is full of starch, gelatin and food additives, and the meat is also some fat and leftovers. If you want to taste it, I'll buy you a bag of raw one another day, and we can come back and make it ourselves.

What's in this bag is actually another amount of money. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said, turned his pocket, and poured all the money inside on the table.

Zhou's father and Zhou's mother were stunned again.

What does that mean? And money?

They looked at Zhou Fangyuan, waiting for his explanation.

"Actually, this money and the 9,000 yuan are together, I didn't finish talking just now, in the past ten days, I have earned not only the 9,000 yuan, but also the 500 yuan starting capital you gave me at the beginning, I have earned a total of 14,838 yuan in ten days. In addition to the nine thousand that was given to you, there are five thousand eight hundred dollars here. ”

Zhou Fangyuan pushed the money slightly to his parents and motioned for them to count it.

But this time, Zhou's father and mother didn't move, they looked at Zhou Fangyuan like a monster.

"Husband, is this still our son?"

"I don't know...... But I think I'll probably have to take it back, and if this mess is still in our hands, it would be great......"

The husband and wife, you said a word, which made Zhou Fangyuan on the opposite side cry and laugh.

He had never seen such a foolish parent, and he could see that the parents were deliberately playing with them in order to hide their surprise. But even so, his parents are not like this. Is this what parents really look like? After all the pressure is removed, the whole heart is completely released?

Zhou Fangyuan didn't know, he only knew that he had never seen his parents like this.

"Mom, Dad, don't laugh at me. And I have to ask you to forgive me one more thing. ”

Zhou Fangyuan saw that his parents didn't count the money, so he could only poke his hand a little, put away all the money scattered on the table again, and then stuffed it back into the cloth bag.

"Forgive you one thing?"

Zhou's father and Zhou's mother were no longer funny, they looked at each other, but Zhou's father spoke.

"If you have anything you want us to forgive you, you say it first, and we have to decide according to the situation. ”

"Yes, it depends on what you do. ”

Zhou Fangyuan looked at his parents and scratched his head, "Actually, I haven't done it yet, I just have this idea...... Okay, I'll just say it bluntly, I want to keep the more than 5,000 yuan for myself. ”

"What do you mean?"

Mother Zhou frowned slightly.

"That's what I mean...... I want to keep this money for myself......"

Zhou Fangyuan continued to scratch his head and said with a smile.

"No way!"

As soon as Zhou Fangyuan's words fell, Zhou's mother immediately objected, "You are still a child, a student, what do you want so much money for, that's five thousand yuan, it's all given to you, what should you do if you spend it indiscriminately?" No, I don't agree, you can keep part of this money, and the rest must be handed over to us." We can help you save and get you a passbook to make sure you don't use your money. But it's completely in your hands, I don't agree. ”

Mother Zhou is different from ordinary parents, she said that she kept it on her behalf, but she really just kept it on her behalf, and she would definitely not touch a penny in it.

But Zhou Fangyuan still has his own plans, he still needs this money, so he really can't hand over this money.

"Mom, look ......"

"Don't look at me, I said, no. ”

Zhou's mother kept shaking her head, and her attitude was very resolute.

"Mom-"

Zhou Fangyuan stretched his voice and wanted to be coquettish.

"Heh, the wings are stiff, can't even stop my words?"

Mother Zhou's expression was very serious, and she didn't mean to soften at all.

Zhou Fangyuan could only hang his head helplessly, facing his mother, he was really hard. It's not a matter of boldness, but in his heart, the status of his parents is too sacred, and he really doesn't want to disobey them.

Is this really going to be handed over?

It's not that there is no other way to make money, but since you can start with capital right away, no one wants to start over.

But seeing that his mother's attitude was so firm, Zhou Fangyuan could only give in. It's not that he didn't want to hide the money quietly, but it was too inappropriate to do so, and if such a large sum of money was hidden, what would his parents think when they found out? Will they be sad?

And isn't it a bit too much for you to do this?

Reborn in a lifetime, Zhou Fangyuan's most fundamental purpose is to make his parents happy, so he doesn't want to do anything that might make them unhappy.

So he chose to tell the truth, so now that there is such a result, he can only grit his teeth and accept it.

"Well, since you've said so......"

Zhou Fangyuan pouted, and was about to hand over the money to his mother.

Dad Zhou suddenly spoke on the side.

"I agreed!"

"What?!"

Zhou's mother and Zhou Fangyuan looked at their husband and father at the same time, they couldn't believe that Zhou's father actually made such a decision at such a critical moment.
