Chapter 15 Money, Everything Is Because of Money

The visit to the museum had a great impact on Wei Xiu, both in terms of his attitude towards antiques and his perception of the explorer in his body.

After returning to school, Wei Xiu returned the books he had borrowed from the museum, re-borrowed antique appreciation books with a more basic professional nature, and decided to study hard.

After all, the explorer is just an auxiliary system, and relying too much on it is not necessarily a good thing.

The next day, Wei Xiu first went to buy a ticket to return to his hometown on Friday, and then seized the opportunity to go to the museum again, until the museum was closed and was picked up by the security guards.

After finishing the afternoon class on Friday, Wei Xiu said hello to his roommates and hurried to the long-distance bus station to return to his hometown.

Tan Xiaoxiao's father is not in the county hospital, but in the city hospital. The reason why Wei Xiu chose to go back to the county seat to visit his parents at home is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is only a half-hour drive from his hometown to the city, and if he is willing to spend money, the distance is still very close.

Three hours later, Wei Xiu returned to his hometown of Zhangshan County, one of the more than 500 national-level poverty-stricken counties.

Out of the station, Wei Xiu was surrounded by a group of small vans, private modified cars and other car owners, eagerly promoting themselves to win over passengers.

Wei Xiu used his hometown dialect and easily refused.

This is the characteristic scenery of a small county, because it is poor, so they all want to make money, this kind of almost no technology, small cost investment of private cars, small yellow cars have become the first choice for many people.

Do you want to say that the poor don't work hard? No, they just can't find a way or a channel.

By the time Wei Xiu took various buses to his hometown in David's town, it was already dark. Don't look at the name of Wei Xiu's hometown town "David", outsiders hear that it is quite fashionable, in fact, the town is very backward, on the dark streets, except for an Internet café and business lights in the distance, the whole town is almost in darkness.

Wei Xiu's parents were very surprised that their son suddenly returned home, and Wei's mother, who was still eating dinner, hurriedly got up and was busy cooking vegetables, while Wei's father cleaned up the leftovers from the previous lunch.

When Wei Xiu saw his parents' dinner, his tears almost didn't flow, thinking about his food in the last few days, and then looking at his parents, he really had the urge to fan himself.

During the meal, Wei's mother pulled Wei's father out and quietly discussed whether her son's sudden return was because he had no money.

Wei Xiu's parents thought that Wei Xiu couldn't hear their conversation, but they didn't know that Wei Xiu, who got the explorer, although he didn't have the realm of ears and eyes, but his eyesight, hearing and even other five senses had been improved to a certain extent, and the sound insulation effect of his hometown house was not good, so Wei Xiu heard it clearly.

Wei Xiu, who heard this, was silent for a while, and then ate dinner with a calm expression.

After dinner, Wei's father was just about to ask why his son came back? Wei Xiu suddenly took out a small pile of cash from his bag and put it on the table, the cash was not much, only 2,000 yuan.

"Ah Xiu, where did you get the money?" asked Wei Mu in some surprise.

"Mom, this money is for you, I have a good school time, I can earn some part-time work, in addition to the current national policy is very good, there are scholarships, I have good grades, I get some scholarships, and I earn a part-time job, and I have a lot of loose money, you see that my clothes are bought when I pay my salary. Wei Xiu pretended to be relaxed.

"If you have money, you can't spend it casually, as long as you have enough clothes to wear, you still have to study in college for a few years." By the way, the child's father, what kind of scholarship does the university really have?" Wei's mother buried a few words of Wei Xiu, and looked at Wei's father with suspicion, she was a rural woman who didn't understand this, so she couldn't tell whether Wei Xiu's words were true or false.

Father Wei often reads the newspaper, and when he has time, he will chat with a few old private school gentlemen in the town, and he knows a lot, and he said with a happy expression: "The old boy in the town told me that there is a national scholarship in the university now, and it is thousands at a time, and I didn't believe it at the time...... Ah Xiu, are you talking about that national scholarship?"

Wei Xiu smiled: "Yes, yes, I didn't expect that old antique to know about this." As soon as the words came out, Wei Xiu was suddenly stunned.

But I think of this old boy, this old boy who lives in the town, it is said that his father passed the last class of the Qing Dynasty, this matter has always been the most glorious thing in his family, so he often hangs on the old man's mouth, and after a long time, people call this old man an old boy.

The old man was not impressed by the slightly sarcastic title of others, but was smug, and the old boy became his name so that no one knew his real name now.

The reason why Wei Xiu remembered this old boy was that he suddenly thought that such a "historical" family, would there be antiques at home?

The more he thought about it, the more moved Wei Xiu became.

As a local, I know this old boy best, but his house has been passed down from the Republic of China to the present, maybe there are really so many antiques?

No, you have to take a look, otherwise I'm always talking about it in my heart.

This night, Wei Xiu stared at the mottled wall and lost sleep. Not because of the old boy's birth, but because of his parents. In the past, he was oppressed by the survival problem of tuition and living expenses, so that he rarely thought about his family, but now he suddenly has plenty of money in his hands, and when he returns to his humble hometown, he can't sleep because of the guilt tormented.

He was thinking, how can he give his parents a stable and prosperous life? He can do it with money, but the origin of this money must be explained clearly, and this kind of thing is still a bit fantastical for the family members who have only been to the county seat farthest, and I am afraid that it will be really difficult to explain it clearly at that time.

Maybe when I go back to school, I will see if I can do some business, and then I will have clean money so that my parents can spend it openly and justifiably.

Wei Xiu, who tossed and turned until the second half of the night to fall asleep, rarely slept the next day, and was not awakened by the sound of an argument outside the courtyard until the third pole of the day.

Wei Xiu rubbed his eyes and put on his coat and hurried out of the courtyard, just in time to see Uncle Sun next door and said helplessly: "...... O old guard, I also know the difficulties of your family. But my son wants to do business, and he is short of money, so I can't delay my son's future, do I? I don't want you to pay it off all at once, and I can't pay back 5,000 first?...... Yo, Ah Xiu is back, when will you come back, that bastard boy in my family is still talking about you being the only one in our town who has been admitted to the undergraduate, and you must have a drink when you come back, but I didn't expect this to be chattering, and you will come back. ”

At this time, in addition to Wei's father and mother, there were also Uncle Sun and several neighbors he brought to help.

Wei Xiu didn't answer Uncle Sun's words, although he only listened to it for a while, he already understood what was happening.

Because of his college trip, his family has taken on a lot of foreign debts for him, and now it seems that Uncle Sun should be here to collect debts.

It is natural to repay debts, and it is not reproachful for people to ask for debts, let alone say that people are unkind and unjust. After all, it was already a blessing to be able to lend you money in the first place, especially in such a poor town.

It's just that as soon as he came home, he saw his parents embarrassed and begging to face the debt collector, and Wei Xiu was still very depressed.

"Dad, how much did our family borrow Uncle Sun?" Wei Xiu said.

Father Wei's face is not very good, no matter how hard and tired he is as a parent, he is not afraid of being wronged, and he is also afraid of being seen by his weak appearance by his children.

"It's none of your business, you go brush your teeth, go back and have breakfast, the dishes are cold......"

"Uncle Sun, how much money do we still have to owe you?" Wei Xiu turned his head and asked Uncle Sun.

Uncle Sun was embarrassed to get up, he was also forced by the bastard son of the family, otherwise he would not be embarrassed to come over and ask for debts. Now who in the town doesn't know that the Wei family is rich? The Wei family has given birth to a good son and has been admitted to a key national university.

So now the people in the town are quite polite when they see Wei Jiafu, and now he is asking for debts in front of Ah Xiu, who has a lot of interest in the future, isn't this offending people?

"I don't have much money, it's okay, it's okay, I'll go somewhere else to find a way, you just have to study hard." Uncle Sun decided to give up asking for debts.

Wei Xiu didn't speak, turned around and went back to the house.

Uncle Sun and the neighbors looked at each other, thinking that Wei Xiu was angry.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Wei Xiu came out, holding a stack of newspaper-wrapped squares in his hand.
