Chapter 2 Hard Work

After Xu Hong broke up with his girlfriend, he rode his dilapidated electric car and started working again. After a day's hard work, I earned dozens of dollars.

After Xu Hong got off work, he returned home.

The current home is not the big villa before Xu Hong's family, you must know that Xu Hong's parents were originally rich people, and their family lived in a high-end villa community in the suburbs, and the people who lived here were rich people and big bosses. A villa here costs millions!

And now Xu Hong's parents can only live in rented affordable housing, which is also next to the original high-end villa community, but the environment is worlds apart!

The original house was tall and bright, with a living room of more than 80 square meters, but now the rented house is only a two-bedroom apartment, with a total area of more than 70 square meters.

Compared to the large villa, this two-bedroom apartment in front of me is really not decent. A family of three lives in a family, which is really a little uncomfortable, but people always have to face the reality, and now their family is a 'loser', and they can only live in such a house.

Xu Hong's parents can only live in such a house because their original villa has been mortgaged to the bank as interest on the bank loan for two years. For the time being, the bank does not collect debts from them, but the loan of 10 million must be repaid to the bank within two years, otherwise the annual interest will make Xu Hong's family unable to live.

In order to survive, Xu Hong's parents had to go to work. Xu Qichang is forty-eight years old, but in order to earn more money, he has to go to the construction team as a small worker. And Zheng Chunling had to go back to school to be a teacher.

But even so, the family's income is only seven or eight thousand a month, and after deducting rent and living expenses, there will be three or four thousand yuan left in a month. You can save 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a year.

In this way, their family will work for ten years and three or four hundred thousand, and work for a hundred years. If you want to pay off the bank's tens of millions of loans, you have to work for at least 200 years.

What is the concept of working for 200 years, it makes people's scalp tingle when they think about it, and it is difficult for people to live for more than 100 years, let alone work for 100 years.

Although Xu Hong's family knows that it is almost impossible to repay the loan just by going to work, there is no other way to go now, so they can only do it temporarily.

Now that it was getting late, Xu Hong rode a dilapidated electric car and dragged his tired body back home.

When she arrived at home, Zheng Chunling had already made dinner, but Xu Qichang was still at the construction site and did not come back!

"Mom, I'm back. Xu Hong has been living in this home for a week, and he has also adapted to the mother in front of him, who is younger and more beautiful than his original mother.

"Son, you're off work, aren't you tired today! You must be working very this hot day!" Although Zheng Chunling is also in her forties, she has a good life before, and she is well maintained, there are not many wrinkles on her face, and she looks like a young woman in her thirties.

But in the past year, the changes in her family life have also made her look a lot older all of a sudden, and the brilliance on her face has decreased a lot.

"Mom, I'm not tired, you see how strong I am, doing these jobs is like playing, I like it very much, how good it is to be able to play in the city every day!"

Xu Hong took off his courier overalls outside, went to the bathroom to wash his face, and then returned to the small living room.

"Son, it's all my parents who don't have the ability to run the company well, and now that the company has closed down, you are also suffering with us!" Zheng Chunling looked at her dark-skinned son who was exposed to the sun, and felt a little distressed.

"Mom! What are you talking about! I'm also a man, how can I not share the responsibilities with my family! Running a company is a very difficult thing to do, and not everyone can run a small company into a large enterprise. ”

Xu Hong saw that the woman in front of him cared about him very much, and he also said some words of comfort to his mother.

When Zheng Chunling heard this, she was very happy in her heart, thinking that her son, who didn't learn and didn't know how to learn, had finally grown up!

Just when Xu Hong was still talking to his mother, the door opened, and Xu Qichang walked in from the outside, he was wearing a dusty camouflage uniform, his face and hands were covered with cement dust, and he couldn't tell that he was a big boss before!

"Qichang, you're back. Zheng Chunling saw her husband come back, so she looked back at Xu Qichang and said.

"Hmm!" Xu Qichang looked tired, and he didn't want to say anything at all.

Xu Hong looked at the physically and mentally exhausted man in front of him, he was also a little uncomfortable, thinking that his father before his death was an old farmer, and now looking at this man like a migrant worker, he is really similar to his previous biological father!

"Son, your dad is back, let's start eating as a family!" After Zheng Chunling finished speaking, she went to the kitchen and brought the food to the table, Xu Hong was naturally embarrassed to do nothing, and hurriedly helped her mother to serve the three of them together.

After a while, Xu Qichang finished washing his face and returned to the dining table.

Today's meal is quite hearty, maybe Zheng Chunling felt that her husband was working hard, so she bought a pound of meat and fried two kinds of meat dishes.

After Xu Qichang sat down, he didn't say anything, just picked up the bowl and gobbled it up.

Looking at this middle-aged man who was working hard to support the family, Xu Hong felt a little sad in his heart, and he couldn't help but pick up a chopstick and put it in Xu Qichang's bowl.

This was originally an ordinary action, but it suddenly made Xu Qichang very moved and uncomfortable. He looked at his son in a daze, as if he were looking at a stranger. Because Xu Hong had never done this action before.

Xu Hong was a little embarrassed by his father, so he had to bow his head and start eating.

"Qichang, you see how sensible my son is! Since something happened in our family, he seems to have grown up all of a sudden! In the past week, I feel as if my son has changed as a different person!"

Zheng Chunling felt that her son had changed a lot, because Xu Hong in front of her was not their real son after all, and his temper and personality were different. The previous Xu Hong was just a rich second generation who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, how could he be compared with the sensible Xu Hong in front of him!

"Chunling! You're right, my son is much more sensible! Seeing our son, it's worth it even if I suffer a lot!" Xu Qichang also felt the same way, and after listening to his wife's words, his heart was even more moved.

"Mom and Dad, don't praise me, otherwise, I will be proud!" Xu Hong saw that his parents kept praising him, and he made a joke embarrassedly.

Xu Qichang and Zheng Chunling listened to their son's words, both glanced at each other, and then both showed knowing smiles.
