Chapter 161: Father's Admonition
"Dad, come out with me for a while, I want to buy a screen and put it on the third floor, you can help the staff." www.biquge.info"Ye Chen wanted to buy some Chinese-style decorations, so he called his father to be his staff officer.
"Okay, I need to go buy some ink." After Ye Zhenzhong opened the ink he brought yesterday, he found that something was wrong, and he didn't check it carefully when he came, and brought an ink bottle that was almost used up, which was not enough to use it a few times.
In addition to buying screens, Ye Chen also bought some fitness equipment, and the space on the third floor was idle for a long time. In addition, the weather in Liverpool is now back to normal, and it will rain from time to time, so many times it is not possible to go out in the morning for morning exercises.
For example, treadmills and exercise bikes are suitable in the spacious room on the third floor. In addition, Ye Chen also took a fancy to a multi-functional trainer on the Internet, which can accommodate fitness equipment with the functions of chest expanders, pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups and other equipment at the same time.
"Xiaochen, you're a bit lavish in spending money now, you can't waste it like this in the future." Ye Zhenzhong flipped through his son's shopping list and wrinkled, although he couldn't understand some English names, but the corresponding numbers could still be understood.
"Although you have a little money now, you still have to think about the future." During the time that Ye Zhenzhong lived here, he couldn't help but say a few words when he saw Ye Chen's lavish spending of money.
"Dad didn't say that you should keep it all and not spend it, but he just wanted you to plan every penny." Ye Zhenzhong said in a soothing tone: "Since you were a child, you have a loose personality and like all kinds of fun things, so we didn't force you to do anything big, as long as you were happy." ”
"Fortunately, you have such a fortune, and your mother and I don't have to worry about you suffering. But in the future, when you and Yuanyuan get married, you can't always live on the money in the bank. ”
"Okay, Xiaochen is just buying a few gym equipment, and I'll see if you can't finish it." Mother Ye listened for a while, then interrupted Ye Zhenzhong's words and comforted Ye Chen. "Xiaochen, don't you still take out some of the funds to invest, even the annual interest is almost enough."
"Hey, what a defeated mother, you think I'm not for my son's good."
The old couple, who were originally sweet and sweet yesterday, started bickering again, and Ye Chen was also used to bickering between them. However, Dad's words still have an impact on Ye Chen, since he became rich and suddenly, he no longer has the heart to work, even if he goes to the pet center, he does it as a hobby.
Although it is difficult to change your personality, you should change the way you spend money.
"Mom, don't talk about my dad, I know it's all for my good, and it's true that I'm a little bit out of the way during this time, and this should really be changed." Ye Chen stopped his parents who were still arguing and took the initiative to admit his mistake to his father.
"Well, I don't mean to blame you. Xiaochen, you are now an adult, and you have your own ideas, no, our concepts are not up to date with the times, so you just have to be happy. Ye Zhenzhong didn't want to make Ye Chen feel uncomfortable because of his words, so he didn't say any more.
Because of his father's words, Ye Chen eliminated some dispensable items from his shopping list, and chose a lot of instruments with overlapping functions just for fun.
Although what his father said was a little verbose, Ye Chen didn't feel bored at all, he enjoyed the lessons of his parents by his side when he was away from home all the year round, and felt like he was teaching back to making mistakes when he was a child.
When he was a child, Ye Chen was a little resistant to his parents, who were teachers, and even though his father liked Chinese painting so much, Ye Chen did not learn these things from him. It wasn't until after going abroad that Ye Chen felt regret.
Today, taking this opportunity, Ye Chen took his father to Chinatown to look for a shop that sold ink. It's hard to buy items from this traditional culture, and in addition to the current recession in Chinatown, many shops are closed. It wasn't until almost noon that they found a stationery store with some supplies for Chinese paintings.
The owner is a gray-haired old man who has been emigrating from China for more than ten years, working as an engineer for a construction company in the city of Liverpool, and after retiring running one such stationery store. In recent years, the boss has returned to China many times, so he prepared some domestic special items and put them in the store.
Ye Zhenzhong chatted with the boss in the store, so he asked Ye Chen to buy fitness equipment by himself, and stayed in the store to chat with the boss.
"You can pick me up later, and I'll invite Mr. Chen to lunch later." After leaving some money for his father, Ye Chen left the store.
Instead of going to the store by himself, he came to the University of Liverpool, Ye Chen had already made an appointment with Cui Yuanyuan to have lunch together, and then walked around the school.
I still remember that before Halloween, Ye Chen and Cui Yuanyuan went shopping, standing in the middle of the mall, Cui Yuanyuan's eyes were blank, and she didn't feel the beautiful clothes around her. And when she entered the sporting goods store today, she instantly came to her senses, pulled Ye Chen through the store, walked into the store, and took the equipment off the shelves from time to time and put it in her hand to experience.
Looking at his girlfriend's hobby, Ye Chen also had nothing to say, feeling that an arm strength device was more tempting than a skirt. According to the things listed on the list, Ye Chen and the others quickly purchased all the equipment. Cui Yuanyuan still has classes in the afternoon, so she can't stay here for too long.
"Yuanyuan, are there any classes on Friday afternoon?"
"There's no class this week, what's wrong?"
Ye Chen remembered what George had told him about the robot competition before, so he wanted to take Cui Yuanyuan to see it. "George called me in the morning, and they have already prepared two tickets for us, let's go and see them together when the time comes."
"Yes, okay." Cui Yuanyuan squatted down and fed the kebab in her hand to Pierre. "Thank you, Pierre, for being with us for so long."
Behind Ye Chen and the others was Pierre, holding a grilled sausage he had just bought from a vendor in his mouth. Pierre's intelligence is getting higher and higher now, even if it is Cui Yuanyuan's command, it can listen to it.
And for the people close to Ye Chen, Pierre also began to accept them, and no longer ignored others like the original.
Sending Cui Yuanyuan back to school, Ye Chen drove to pick up his father, and it was estimated that they should also finish lunch. Who knew that after Ye Chen arrived at the store, he found that his father was drinking with Boss Chen in the store.
The door was ajar, and the two of them set up a table in the middle of it, on which they were supposed to buy snacks. With a bottle of liquor, both of them drank with red faces.
