Chapter 9 Family Happiness
In the past two days, Xu Hong went to the exhibition hall for an art exhibition, Xu Qichang and Zheng Chunling were also very worried, they felt that their son would not be able to sell a painting this time, and he would lose 10,000 yuan in booth rent, which would be really unworthwhile, their family was already in debt, 10,000 yuan, which was also their family's salary for two months!
It's past three o'clock in the afternoon, and Xu Hong's parents haven't gotten off work yet. Xu Hong returned home, washed his face first, and then put the 160,000 yuan he earned on the dining table in the living room.
Whether it was before or after rebirth, for Xu Hong, the 160,000 yuan was a huge fortune, he had never seen so much money, and he never dared to think that he could make so much money by selling paintings.
"Haha, I'm going to get rich, it seems that after I was reborn, it's time to run! Half a month of hard work, I earned 160,000 yuan, this is the speed at which big money people make money!"
You must know that before Xu Hong was reborn, he was just a poor boy who opened a small painting shop, and he couldn't earn three or two thousand yuan a month except for rent. And now he has earned 160,000 yuan in a few days, such a speed of making money, he couldn't have imagined before!
Xu Hong sat at the dining table now, then picked up a wad of hundred-yuan bills and counted them.
"Whew!" This feeling of counting money made Xu Hong smile uncontrollably. He wants to make money at this rate, and he will soon be able to pay off the tens of millions of arrears in his family.
Xu Hong sat at the dining table in the living room all afternoon, and he kept counting the banknotes on the table, not to see if there were 160,000 yuan, but to enjoy the feeling of counting money.
It wasn't until more than five o'clock that Zheng Chunling came back from school.
When she opened the door of the living room and walked into the house, she saw Xu Hong sitting at the dining table at a glance. And on the dining table, there are two stacks of brand new renminbi.
"Son, what's going on --- this! You --- so much money from you! It can't be a bank robbery!" Although Zheng Chunling was also a broad wife before, since the collapse of the garment factory, she has become an ordinary housewife, and she has not seen so much money for a year.
"Mom, what are you talking about? Does your son have that much ability? I just sold a few paintings. As soon as Xu Hong saw that his mother was back, he modestly showed off in front of his mother.
"Son, just those few paintings you painted, you sold them for so much money!" Zheng Chunling looked at the two stacks of renminbi in front of her, feeling that there were at least hundreds of thousands, of course she was very surprised.
"Yes, the eight paintings I painted sold for a total of 80,000 yuan!" Xu Hong looked at his mother excitedly. "Son, but do you have at least 100,000 yuan in front of you, how can you say that your painting only sold for 80,000 yuan!"
"Mom, you don't know, I even won 80,000 yuan in a bet with others! So, this money is 160,000 yuan!"
"What are you talking about, bet with others! With whom!" Zheng Chunling listened to her son's words, and she was even more surprised.
"And Yao Hong, I don't know if my mother has heard of it, is the most famous painter in our Tiannan City. Xu Hong looked at his mother indifferently and smiled.
"What, you bet with Master Yao, are you crazy! How dare you bet with others!" Zheng Chunling has also heard of this Master Yao and knows that he is a very powerful painter. When all the dignitaries and nobles in Tiannan City saw him, they also wanted to give him some face.
"What's the matter, Mom, it's he Yao Hong who looks down on me, so I'm not convinced to bet with him! And, he said it first, I can't fight without fighting!" Xu Hong saw that his mother said this Master Yao so badly, and he was still a little unconvinced!
"Son, you don't know! This Master Yao is the younger brother of Mayor Yao of our Tiannan City! If you offend others, then you will be in trouble in the future!" Zheng Chunling is an elder, and she must know more things than Xu Hong.
Xu Hong was a rich second generation who didn't learn and didn't know how to paint before, so he didn't know some details of this Master Yao.
"Mom, don't worry, I just made a bet with him, besides, that person has money, the 80,000 yuan is nothing to him, I think, he won't care too much. Xu Hong didn't care, after all, for a rich man, 80,000 yuan was really nothing.
"Son, what you said is also true, it seems that our family is going to produce a great painter!" Zheng Chunling was nervous, and also felt that what her son said made sense, 80,000 yuan is a drop in the bucket for a well-known painter like Master Yao, and people may forget about it in a few days.
"Mom, don't talk about this, you don't have to cook today, wait a while, my dad will come back, and our family will go to the big restaurant to eat together." Xu Hong thought that he made more than 100,000 yuan by making it easy, such a good thing should be celebrated!
"Son, you have made some money, but we still owe tens of millions to the bank! Compared with your hundreds of thousands and 10 million, it is still too small!" Zheng Chunling was happy for a moment, and then thought of her family's huge debt of tens of millions.
"Mom, don't worry, I earned more than 100,000 yuan in half a month, so I can earn more than 3 million or 10 million a year, and I can earn it in two or three years!" Xu Hong said very easily, as if he was already a well-known painter now.
"Okay, son, don't brag, but what you said is also true, since you have the ability, our family will naturally not worry about paying off the debt, so when your father comes back, our family will go to a nearby hotel to celebrate. Zheng Chunling thought that she had such a capable son, and she also wanted to go to the big restaurant for a meal, after all, she was a rich person before, and she often went to the big restaurant to eat!
After another hour, Xu Qichang came back, he listened to his son's matter, and looked at the hundreds of thousands of yuan in front of him, he was also excited and surprised.
"Son, you are really very powerful! With you, my Xu Qichang Dongshan is not far away! Go, for our capable son, our family goes to the big hotel, and I miss me Xu Qichang, who was also a big boss before! I haven't been to the big hotel for a year, and I don't know what the food in the big hotel tastes like. ”
Xu Qichang is a person who does great things, although he has now become a migrant worker, his ambitions are still very big, but he doesn't have the funds to let him get up.
The family is now happily coming to a three-star hotel called 'Fugui' near the community.
Xu Hong asked the waiter to book a private room, ordered a table of sumptuous delicacies, and the family drank wine while eating, talking and laughing, which was really happy.
