Chapter 045: But I Cared
When I saw my father and two brothers for the first time, Jiuliang was like a baby who had been weaned for many days, pounced on it and pulled and bitten, and then whined and cried: "Why did you only come today--why did you only come today--"
It seems that these days, he has endless grievances, which have been buried in his heart, and finally ushered in the opportunity to confide.
This situation was also unexpected by Fan Jianqiang.
To be honest, when he woke up from the old house, he only saw two people, one was Lao Fan, and the other was Yijin.
Later, I got to know the members of the family one after another, including the second brother Jiuliang, who had never met.
Right now, Jiu Liang burst into tears on the spot when he saw his family, which really made him feel very uncomfortable.
Looking at Jiu Liang in front of him, thinking of the experience of these days, as well as Lao Fan's advice to him that day, Fan Jianqiang vaguely realized that Jiu Liang's life in Xinghua County may be an extension of the sadness of the old Fan's aggrieved life for many years-
God will not sympathize with the weak, but will torture the weak even harder!
Secretly gritting his teeth and clenching his fists, Fan Jianqiang thought secretly.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that the blood around him was flowing hotly: working hard is destined to be the only way for the old Fan family to live in the future!
Seeing Jiuliang crying, Lao Fan couldn't help but cry again, but because of some eyes around him, he forcibly held back, hugged his back, and tried to laugh: "Jiuliang doesn't cry, don't be laughed at by others, obedient." β
Yijin also hugged Jiu Liang's arm and said, "Jiu Liang, listen to Daddy, don't cry." β
Jiuliang reined in a little, lowered his head and wiped his tears, and nodded vigorously.
"This big family, like a motherless child, crying and crying?" Jiang Wu's voice suddenly came out of nowhere, with a strange yin and yang aura, "Hey, nine taels, don't tell me, this is your father, and those two are your brothers." You're not ashamed, I'm ashamedβ"
Fan Jianqiang's head suddenly became hot, and a taste of humiliation arose, and he immediately looked sideways at the person with cold eyebrows.
Besides, Lao Fan, he had been here once or twice before, and he had secretly visited Jiuliang with the people in Yucheng on his back.
Therefore, he didn't know Jiang Wu, and he didn't know that Jiang Wu was the deputy lobby manager of Yucheng.
So, suddenly hearing this yin and yang weirdness, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Oh, we patronized and talked, I didn't expect it to affect this boss, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry-"
Fan Jianqiang wanted to hold his father, but he was pressed behind him by his father.
Just as he wanted to break free, Yijin came up and grabbed his right arm, signaling him not to be impulsive.
Jiuliang didn't expect Jiang Wu to come out, so he immediately went up to laugh with him, and introduced to Lao Fan: "Dad, this is the fifth master." The fifth master is the deputy manager of the lobby of Baile and the nephew of our boss, so he is good for nine taels. Jiuliang is here, and he has been bullied, and he is covered by the fifth master-"
As soon as he heard this, Jiang Wu laughed out loud.
He is the master of a fat brain, and he looks down on this group of people dressed in the countryside at all, and his self-righteousness on weekdays is even more skyrocketing at the moment.
Therefore, even if Jiu Liang had a flattering face and tone, it didn't make him restrain himself: "I said Jiu Liang, you don't pee on yourself, what do you have as a poor boy?" Why do I, Jiang Wu, want to cover you? Don't put that almost, you don't deserve it! I was going upstairs just now, and you kid ran away without saying hello to me, do you still have my fifth master in your eyes? β
Hearing this, Lao Fan hurriedly greeted: "Fifth master, my family is still young, not very sensible, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about him." He probably heard that we were coming, and he was so happy that he left in a hurry. Fifth master, I'll make a compensatory deal to you on his behalf, don't worry about him-"
Jiuliang couldn't stop nodding yes, flatteringly agreed, and secretly squeezed his eyes at Jiang Wu, made a pleading appearance, and signaled Jiang Wu not to embarrass himself at this time: "Fifth master, yesterday a guest gave me a pack of cigarettes, a pack of fifteen Nan*jing cigarettes, and I was about to send it to you." Fifth master, I'll send my father and them downstairs, and I'll go to you when I turn around, and by the way, I want to ask you for a little leave, it won't take more than an hour, what do you think? β
In fact, there were no guests who gave nine taels of cigarettes yesterday.
In fact, Jiu Liang mentioned the fifteen yuan a pack of Nan*jing cigarettes, which was a hint to Jiang Wu: Don't worry, as long as the fifth master gives me a little face this time, I will buy a pack of Nanjing cigarettes for the fifth master.
Moreover, Jiuliang believes that after hinting in this way, Jiang Wu will definitely be very satisfied, and maybe he will be happy and approve the one-hour vacation.
Who knows, this Jiang Wu is also crazy personally.
It was Jiu Liang who said this, and there were so many people from the old Fan family, he still looked pampered and self-righteous, and immediately said disdainfully: "Oh, aren't you scolding me Jiang Wu?" A pack of fifteen-dollar cigarettes bought me? You're bad, boyβ"
Jiuliang immediately said: "Fifth master, two packs?" Two packs of fifteen yuan in Nanjing, right? β
Jiang Wu immediately smiled: "Oh, nine taels, you kid, it's really bad." Forget it, my fifth master is in a good mood today, so I won't worry about you. However, those two packs of cigarettes, you must not mention them again. Otherwise, don't blame my fifth master for being angry, because that's slapping me in the face. β
Lao Fan didn't hear what he meant, so he only thanked him vigorously.
Jiuliang stared at Jiang Wu's swaggering back, gritted his teeth and smiled: "Fifth Master is atmospheric!" Xiexie Five! Fifth Master, let's go-"
Instead, seeing Jiang Wu's back disappear at the stairs, Jiuliang immediately scolded: "Dog's day, my heart is so black!" β
After scolding, Jiuliang turned around, but was suddenly stunned.
Because, he found that the third brother was staring at him like a stranger.
Jiuliang was a little flustered, and asked tightly: "Baliang, why do you look at your second brother like this?" Don't be afraid, then Jiang Wu is gone, he won't do anything to us. By the way, someone from the village last time said, you have been admitted to university, the first place in Shili Town, and you will be a teacher in the future, is it true? β
Yijin answered: "It's true, our family will be a teacher in the future!" β
So, Jiuliang's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward to hug Fan Jianqiang, and said excitedly: "Great! Eight taels, all the food expenses for your college trip will go to the second brother-"
Taking advantage of the time when Jiuliang came up to hug him, Fan Jianqiang tried to calm down, biting his ear and asking: "This Jiang Wu, I blackmailed you with two packs of cigarettes just now, and it worked, right?" β
Jiuliang didn't expect the third brother to ask himself this, and blurted out: "Yes." But don't worry, every time he blackmails me, I'll curse him all night. Eight taels, in fact, it doesn't matter. The debts owed by our family a few years ago are basically about to be paid off. The most important thing is that the second brother is earning money now, and he doesn't care about that little money-"
"But I care!"
Still biting Jiuliang's ear, Fan Jianqiang said coldly.
In the final analysis, what Fan Jianqiang cares about is not money.
After saying that sentence, he had already decided not to return to Shili Village tonight: some people, some things, should not be considered in the long run, but should be simple and rude!
For fear that this chatter would cause others to be unhappy, Lao Fan hurriedly urged everyone to go out to eat first-
