Chapter 5 A penny suffocates a hero
After Dong Wencheng said this, he was really aggrieved in his heart, and he felt that he had never been so ashamed!
In the past life, when he went out to make vases, he really could get money for posing, even before he became a star, he was always self-reliant, and the taste of reaching out for money has almost forgotten! But he can't open his mouth, it's really, cough cough, no money! Just now he ran back to the room and rummaged through, and finally only found five cents, not a whole, one two cents, three sheets and one dime, what is the difference between this and no money?
He hesitated again and again before opening his mouth, and still asked Dong's mother, who seemed to be easier to speak, but what he didn't expect was that Dong's mother, who looked quite gentle and kind, immediately raised her eyebrows when she heard him ask for money, her eyes widened, and she asked coldly: "What do you want money for? Who are you going to drink with? Tell me about you, this is just right, and you have to toss it again, right? The account of stealing your father's salary last month has not been settled with you, and you still need money? Looking for a draw, isn't it?"
Dong's mother's words made Dong Wencheng instantly petrified, and his heart said, Dong Wencheng, Dong Wencheng, what are you doing? Of course, I didn't really ask him about myself, but about his predecessor!
But no matter how resentful he is, it's useless, the fact should be like this, Dong's mother's words made him speechless at all, so he had to "that" and "this" for a long time, he didn't know how to answer, and his face was red!
In the end, Dong's father couldn't stand it anymore, helped him out of the siege, and said to Dong's mother: "Oh, it's all in the past, why are you still mentioning it?
Dong's mother retorted unsympathetically: "I don't say it? I don't say that the family's money has been all made up by him! This hospitalization cost a lot, and you will not be paid for more than a week, and this is asking for money, giving him the whole family to drink the northwest wind!"
Dong's father ignored Dong's mother's words, and just asked Dong Wencheng: "Son, what do you want money for?
Dong Wencheng said hesitantly: "There's nothing to buy, that, I just want to cut my hair, my hair is too long, and there is a lot of hairspray, it's weird! Don't worry, or wait for me to go to work in the hotel and make money!" Then he said: "I'm full, you can eat slowly!" After speaking, he stood up and walked back to his room, oh, it was a room shared with his sister.
Lying on the bed, my heart said, thinking that my disgusting head would have to hold on for at least a month, not to mention how depressed I was. Of course, I regret it a little, I shouldn't ask for money so easily, and I am so faceless.
He didn't know when he went back to the room, as soon as he left, Dong's father and Dong's mother quarreled. Dong's father opened his mouth first, and he said angrily: "Look at you, what are you doing! My son is so old, he can give some face, and he doesn't ask clearly, what is there to cut his hair with money?"
Dong's mother said: "I want money every day, how do I know what he wants to do, how much money does it cost? I'm laid off here, I don't know when the salary will be paid, the little money that Xiu'er works there is not enough for her to eat a fast food at noon, it all depends on your salary, that is, barely enough, how can you always give him the extra money! Besides, he said that he asked for money to cut his hair, who knows if it's true, and when he turns around and doesn't go home in the middle of the night, he finds a bunch of blind people to drink, can you manage it?"
The two of them began to face each other, and where was Dong's mother's opponent in quarreling? In the end, Dong's father, who was angry, also stood up, and went to his son's room from the eating place without saying a word.
Dong Wencheng was worried about it, and was startled by his vigorous push on the door, and when he saw that it was his father, he got busy and said, "Dad, what's wrong?"
Dad Dong eased his emotions, sat on the edge of the bed and said, "It's nothing, Dad will give you money later, go cut your head!" Dong Wencheng was embarrassed to ask for it, and said: "Dad, no need, in fact, it's nothing, it's too late to cut it when I pay my salary, it's not a big deal!"
Hearing what his son said, Dong's father said decisively: "Cut, I said cut it, no matter how poor the family is, it has not even reached the point where there is no money to cut a head!"
But after saying that, after thinking about it, he said: "Your mother is like that, this is no way! Now our family environment is really not very good, she has been laid off for more than a year, and she has not paid a penny, she is panicked! Don't go to your heart, work hard in the hotel, don't expect you to earn much money back, after all, the family has an income, everyone is more relaxed!"
After all the words came to this point, Dong Wencheng didn't say anything more, just nodded and said, "Okay, Dad, I know, I must do it well!"
At this time, his sister Wenxiu walked in and said timidly: "Dad, it's time, if you don't go to work, it'll be late!"
Dong's father hurriedly stood up, walked out, and walked in again after a while, handed a ten-yuan note to Dong Wencheng, and walked out again without speaking.
Looking at Dong's father's back, Dong Wencheng was really full of sadness, and said that the ten yuan was really hard to come by, but then he had some questions, is it enough to cut off the head for ten yuan? Is the price in 1995 so cheap?
After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and asked his sister, "Xiu'er, how much does it cost to cut your hair?"
Xiu'er poked her head out and said with a smile: "Look where you go to cut, if you go to the bathhouse, two yuan is enough, if you go to the hair salon you always went to before, ten yuan is not enough!
No matter how thick-skinned Dong Wencheng is, he is embarrassed to take other girls' money to cut his hair, even if he is his own sister, so he smiled and said: "No, I'll go to the bathhouse, I can save a lot!"
Xiu'er hurriedly said: "Brother, you are really a little different now! You can cut your hair in the bathhouse, then you don't go to the bathroom to take a bath, just take a bath in the bathhouse of our father's factory, it's cheap!"
Dong Wencheng said suspiciously: "What do you mean by taking a bath in the bathhouse?" Xiu'er couldn't laugh and said: "What do you mean, it's literal! Wait until you finish eating in the evening and let Dad take you there!" Dong Wencheng didn't think much about it, and said, "Oh, okay, let Dad take me!"
When Xiu'er heard this, she immediately got up from the bed and shouted, "Mom, my brother said that he would go to the bathhouse to take a bath at night!" Mom。。。。。。 ”
Dong Wencheng felt that this sister was really a little inexplicable, what was wrong with taking a bath in the bathhouse? Why did it seem to be something big! He hurriedly followed, and his sister was reporting the good news in Dong's mother's and father's room!
Seeing the joy that Xiu'er said, he pretended to be angry and said, "What are you arguing about? Take a shower, it's worth your yelling?"
Xiu'er said disapprerovingly: "Brother, have you really forgotten? You have been thinking of the bathhouse since junior high school, so you don't go there to take a bath! Wash at home in the summer, and go to the Dabei bathhouse twice a month in the winter to wash the small room, five yuan at a time!"
Dong Wencheng listened, he didn't care about anything else, he was just surprised that she said about taking a bath twice a month, what the hell!
