Chapter 102: Never Eat the Food That Comes to You
Xiao Yao was racing the money he got from Uncle Wang from the fat man into his pocket, and the old man on duty in the factory office hurriedly came to find him, calling Xiao Yao, saying that his mother was here.
Xiao Yao also hurriedly said goodbye to Uncle Wang and hurriedly returned to his father's office.
"Son, you heartless and unfilial son, you left your mother and ran away. I raised you so big, did you let you flesh me like this?"
Xiao's mother, who heard Xiao An's letter and said that Xiao Yao was back, rushed over, didn't see her son, thought it was another fake news, and when she saw Xiao Yao standing at the door, she pounced on her, hugged Xiao Yao, and complained about Xiao Yao while crying.
Xiao Yao saw his mother, who was originally wide-hearted and fat, and suddenly lost a lot of weight, and felt very uncomfortable, so he knelt down in front of his mother all of a sudden:
"Mom, it's the son who is wrong, the son is not filial, you can beat me, scold me. ”
"My son, you've been gone for the past few days, and every day it's like someone is cutting your mother's flesh with a knife. Don't kneel, so many people, get up. ”
Xiao's mother saw her son kneeling down in front of so many people. was also very sad, but he felt even more sorry for Xiao Yao, and quickly helped Xiao Yao up. How could his own son, his mother, not care about his face? After everyone came up and comforted him, they all dispersed one after another.
When it was time for lunch, Xiao's father asked him to already book a banquet at the hotel, and called Uncle Cai, Uncle Wang, Xiao An and others to go to eat together. Xiao's mother saw that her son had lost a lot of weight, and she felt uncomfortable, and she kept counting Xiao Yao: How good it is at home, you have to go out to suffer, no matter how big you are, no matter how big a mistake you make, your parents will not dislike you. I'm only you this time, if you dare to do this again, I don't want you as a son, I didn't support you.
When he came to the restaurant, a table of dishes had been served, Xiao Yao wanted to drink a few glasses of wine and express his gratitude to the elders, but Xiao's mother sternly refused. It is said that if you drink alcohol, you can't eat, and you have to toast, and there will be opportunities in the future. Everyone saw that Xiao's mother loved her son, so they no longer persuaded Xiao Yao to drink.
Halfway through the meal, Guo Liang's parents got the news and rushed here. His mother also hugged her son and cried, and everyone stepped forward to persuade her, and at the same time added tableware to the table and ate with everyone.
After the meal, Guo Liang's parents asked him to go home with them, Guo Liang did not move, looked at Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao went over to pat him on the shoulder, and said softly in his ear:
"You go back, Jing'er, then I'll do it myself, but you have to remember to keep it secret, don't tell about the matter of the repatriation station. Lose face. ”
"I know you're all making money for Jing'er, but I can't help at all. If I don't go with you anymore, I don't think it's like talking. ”
"What's there, it's all brothers. Besides, it is better to save the fare for one more person to give it to her family. ”
Guo Liang saw that Xiao Yao was so patient, so he stopped insisting and went home with his parents.
Xiao's mother talked to Xiao Yao again, and then asked Xiao Yao to sleep in the guest room of the conference room, let him sleep and go home with her. Xiao Yao dragged his mother aside and said softly:
"Mom, I'm not going back today, I'm going back to the provincial capital tomorrow, and the matter is not over, I'm coming back to let you know that I'm okay, I'm afraid you'll worry." ”
"I know that I am afraid that we will be worried, and you have been out for more than a month? What are you going to do back? I have something to ask your Uncle Wang to do, and his branch has not been busy recently. What if you run away and don't come back?"
"Mom, my son won't. I know it's wrong, it's really something that hasn't been done, and I have to go by myself. No one else can replace me. I'm going to ask you for money. ”
"You must have borrowed money from someone when you ran out, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been out there for so many days. How much did you borrow?"
"Five hundred. ”
Xiao Yao didn't dare to say more, for fear that his mother would suspect him, so he gritted his teeth and said this number.
"So much? You two eat swan meat every day outside, don't spend so much money, right? That's enough for seven or eight families, and the year's expenses are still surplus. You're too good at spending money, too. No wonder your sister said she couldn't give you more money, no amount of money would be enough for you to spend. ”
"Mom, I didn't spend money indiscriminately, this poor family has to make money for everything. Don't let Dad know about this. Otherwise, I won't have a good life. ”
"What about your schooling? When you come back, you don't go to class, and you have to run around. ”
"Anyway, I won't go to Wuyang Middle School, or I'll go back to the provincial capital to go to school, or go to my sister's school. ”
"I'll discuss this matter when you come back, and I'll go to your dad and ask for money." I didn't have it with me. ”
Xiao Yao's mother softened her heart by her son's words and words, turned around and went to Xiao Yao's father to ask Xiao Yao for money.
"Second son, if you don't want to sleep, go to Uncle Kong's for tea. ”
The short and stubby branch director came to Xiao Yao's side and invited Xiao Yao to drink tea with him. Originally, Xiao Yao also thought about going to him for an autumn breeze, but he knew that Uncle Kong, who was in charge of the weaving branch, was an old and cunning person, and there were no two purchasing uncles who were in charge of the branch factory who were easy to talk to. So I didn't plan to look for him. Seeing that he came to take the initiative to call himself to drink tea, thinking that he could ask for some money and ask for some, for the sake of Jing'er, face is not important.
"Okay, Uncle Kong, I ate too much at noon, and it must be uncomfortable to sleep, so I'll go to your place to drink a good cup of tea and eliminate my appetite. ”
When he came to Director Kong's office, Uncle Kong diligently made tea, and he looked at Xiao Yao with his eyes.
"Second son, where did you go when you went out this time? Your Uncle Wang and Uncle Cai are easy to find, and they have reported a large amount of travel expenses when they come back. ”
"I went to Shanghai to play, you are in the provincial capital, and you can't find me if you look for death. ”
"In Shanghai? You two spent more than a month in that big Shanghai? That costs a lot of money, doesn't it?"
Xiao Yao understood that he was trying to get to the bottom of himself, and when he learned the details, he would brag everywhere about how good he was. Xiao Yao also wanted to get some money for Jing'er from him, so he climbed the pole.
"yes, I'm worried about this?"
"Worried? If you go to Shanghai to play, you will bring thousands of children with you. A little more than a month is enough for the two of you to spend. ”
Xiao Yao saw that he deliberately said it easily, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he wanted to turn around and leave, but he still endured it.
"Uncle Kong, you still don't know me, when did I have any money around me, when I went to the provincial capital, I didn't have a penny in my pocket, I went to borrow it from my classmates and friends, and none of my relatives dared to look for it. I'm afraid of being caught. ”
"Looking for classmates and friends to borrow it? Your classmates and friends, who has so much money that can lend you to play in Shanghai for more than a month?"
"Uncle Kong, don't ask about this, I'm going back to pay off the debt tomorrow, I don't dare to tell my dad about this, I still want you to be old and help me." ”
"Of course I'll help you, I know your dad is strict with you, but that's for your own good. You say, how much do you want to borrow from me? I will satisfy you. ”
"Uncle Kong, let me declare first, this money is not a loan, it is a sponsorship, I borrowed yours, and I will pay it back in the future, I might as well go directly to my father, so why bother turning this corner. ”
"Oh, that's it, second son, you also know, my branch, the benefits have not been good recently, your father's share and rewards are less, and I don't have much money left, but I will definitely help you with your favor. I have fifty dollars here, so you can take it to the rescue." ”
As he spoke, he fumbled through the drawer for a long time and took out five ten-dollar bills. Xiao Yao really wanted to take the money and smash it on his disgusting face, but he didn't make any moves, and he didn't accept the money handed over by Uncle Kong.
"Uncle Kong, I'm bothering you, you don't have anything to spare, you should keep this money to buy something for your child to eat. ”
"Second son, I know that this amount of money, in your eyes, you must be too little, but in the eyes of others, it is undoubtedly a huge amount of money. Take Xiao An as an example, he worked hard for a month, and it was only eighteen yuan, which was enough for him to work for three months. ”
"Uncle Kong, I don't care if it's more or less, but what I want is face. I don't want to sell my face for fifty yuan in front of your Uncle Kong. ”
After Xiao Yao finished speaking, he angrily pulled his legs and left.
