(Brothers and sisters, please vote, thank you.) ļ¼
At this time, Liu Guangming came back from work. When he saw this hectic scene, he already understood in his heart. He greeted his neighbors as he walked home.
When Zhang Qian and others saw Liu Guangming coming back, they greeted each other.
"Zhang Qian, Sun Guang, Zhao Kun, remember to come back and play when you have time." Liu Guangming smiled at them and said.
"Come back and play? Uncle Liu, aren't your family moving? Zhang Qian hurriedly asked.
"Move, our family will move in two days. My dad meant that you could go to my house when you moved. Liu Tao glanced at his father and said to everyone.
"I see." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, it's not too early, you all hurry back and help. If you need help, just call me. Liu Tao gave an eviction order.
Zhang Qian and the others nodded, said hello to Liu Guangming, and then went back to their respective homes.
"Dad, Mom, you two go into the house, I have something to say." Liu Tao waited until they left, and said to Ai Mei, who was cooking in the kitchen.
Liu Guangming and Ai Aimei couldn't help but smile when they saw him looking mysterious, and then followed him into the house.
Liu Tao waited until they came in, and then locked the door from the inside. Then he beckoned his parents to sit down.
"I said Taotao, if you have something, just say it, why are you so mysterious." Seeing her baby son's actions, Ai Mei said helplessly.
"I said Mom and Dad, you see Sun Guang and they have all moved, and we can't stay here all the time. So, I decided to hold a family meeting to solve the problem of the house. Liu Tao said seriously.
"I'm the thing, that's it. I have already discussed the house with your mother, so I won't buy it for the time being. When the college entrance examination is over, if you have similar scores, we will send you to the next three books. When you graduate, we'll find a way to save money to buy you a house. Liu Guangming said with a smile. In his eyes, his son will never grow up, and he needs to worry about everything.
"Mom and Dad, I understand everything you have done for me." When Liu Tao said this, he changed his words and said: "But other people's families live in new houses, and we are not a head shorter than others, so why can't we live in new houses?" Mom and Dad, I'm telling you, not only do we have to live in a new house, but we also want to live in a bigger house than theirs! ā
"Taotao, are you alright? Have you been under pressure to study lately? How do I think you're starting to talk nonsense. Ai Mei said as she put her hand on Liu Tao's forehead.
"Mom, I'm not kidding, I'm serious. I'm studying very hard now, even if I can't get into a key university, there is still no problem with the second book, and the money you prepared for me will definitely not be needed. Also, there's something I think it's important for you to know. Liu Tao said with a stern face. Originally, he wanted to talk to his parents about gambling stones after a while, but now that it has reached this point, if he doesn't say it again, it is estimated that his parents will definitely live here. He is a son of man, he has money in his pocket and lets his parents live here, how can he be at peace in his heart? Even if you sleep at night, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep soundly.
"Say what? You can't be out there, are you? Liu Guangming looked at his baby son and asked with a smile.
"Dad, look at what you said, am I so unmotivated in your eyes? I sue you that I now have 1.5 million in my bank card. Liu Tao thought for a moment and reported a number. Originally, he wanted to say more, but considering his parents' ability to bear it, it would be better to report a little less.
It turned out that he was the right decision. After listening to their son's words, Liu Guangming and Ai Mei were directly stunned on the spot.
"Mom and Dad, are you two alright?" Seeing them like this, Liu Tao hurriedly asked.
"It's fine. Taotao, you repeat what you just said. How much money do you say you have on your card? Liu Guangming came back to his senses, and asked again with some disbelief.
"One and a half million." Liu Tao said word by word.
"Where did you get all this money?" Ai Mei asked anxiously. You must know that the two of them have worked hard to save up for so many years and have not saved much money, and Liu Tao suddenly turned out 1.5 million, no wonder the two of them are so anxious.
"Mom and Dad, don't worry, you two, listen to me slowly." Liu Tao talked about his trip to the jade shop opened by Zhang Liang's family on the weekend. It's just that the true price at which the jadeite is sold is hidden.
"You mean, Zhang Liang's father gave you a piece of wool, and then you cut out a piece of high-quality jadeite and sold it for so much money, right?" Liu Guangming repeated.
Liu Tao didn't speak, just nodded.
"How does this story sound like a myth yes. Taotao, what you said is true, right? Liu Guangming still didn't believe it. Although he also knows a little about gambling stones, he doesn't believe that his son will have such good luck, this feeling is the same as buying a lottery ticket to win, the odds are too low and too low.
"Of course it's true. Dad, if you don't believe me, wait until I ask Zhang Liang for his father's mobile phone number tomorrow, you can ask. By the way, didn't I build yƬ you to open a car repair shop that day? I'm just going to ask Zhang Liang's dad for help. Liu Tao said with a smile. One and a half million has already made the parents so nervous, if it is eight and a half million, they must not be directly scared to faint.
"Wife, I really didn't expect it. I've bought a lottery ticket for so many years and haven't won a single prize. Tao Tao picked a piece of wool casually, and he made so much money! It's providence! Liu Guangming said excitedly, and his words seemed incoherent.
"yes!" Ai Mei is also quite excited. She was still worried about her son's college entrance examination, but now that this problem has been solved.
"Mom and Dad, you two don't need to be so excited. Where do you two want to buy a house? You can go and see it tomorrow. Liu Tao looked at his parents' happy appearance, and his heart was also happy. He only now truly understands what true happiness is. What he did before really broke his parents' hearts, and now he can finally do something for his parents.
"Tao Dad, do you still have a house in your unit? If we still have one, we can buy one. Ai Mei hurriedly asked.
Unexpectedly, Liu Guangming shook his head and said, "Originally, when it was built, it was one set for one person. I didn't ask for it, I already asked the leader to give it to one of his relatives. Besides, these houses in the unit cannot be sold within five years, and I can only live in them if I buy them, otherwise I would have paid for a set at that time. ā
"What then?" Aimei then asked.
"Mom, what else can I do, continue to look at the house. Now Binjiang City has built a lot of houses, and many of them are very good. The ones you divide are all seventy or eighty squares, and they are indeed a little smaller. If our family buys it, we must buy at least one hundred and twenty or thirty square meters. By the way, the last time I went to Zhang Liang's house, his house was a three-bedroom apartment, almost 120 square meters, let's just buy a set like that. Liu Tao said to care for Mei Jian.
"I'm afraid that such a house will cost four or five hundred thousand. I think it's better to buy a smaller one, and the rest of the money will be used for decoration. Liu Guangming thought for a moment and said his thoughts. He hadn't earned so much money in his life, and he really felt distressed to spend it all at once.
Aimei nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Liu Tao smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, according to me, the house is still bigger." In case there are relatives who come to the house and have no place to sleep. ā
What Tao Tao said also makes sense. Tomorrow I will ask the leader for a leave, and the two of us will go around next to each other to see if there is a suitable one. Liu Guangming said.
"Okay! Taotao, don't spend the money in your card, when you graduate from college, find a job, and use the money to buy a house and marry a daughter-in-law, your father and I will have no worries. Ai Mei instructed. She used to work as a temporary worker in the Garden Bureau, but then she had a car accident and recuperated at home for two years, and then never went out to work again, and has been making money at home by doing some manual work. Fortunately, Liu Guangming has a fixed salary, and his life is okay. It is precisely because of this experience that she spends her money wisely.
Liu Tao nodded and said, "Mom and Dad, it's best not to say anything about our family's wealth, so as not to be remembered by thieves." ā
Liu Guangming and Ai Mei nodded one after another. They are all from the past, so naturally it is obvious that wealth does not reveal such a truth.
"Alright, Mom, you go cook. I'll go out and see how they're moving and see if there's anything I can do to help. As soon as Liu Tao finished speaking, he opened the door and walked out.
Liu Guangming looked at his son's back, turned his head to Ai Aimei and said, "This precious son of ours is really blessed!" I don't know if there will really be a big future in the future. ā
Ai Mei shook her head and said, "I don't expect him to have much ability, I just hope that he can live a down-to-earth life." ā
"I'll go out and have a look, too. You cook, get some good food, and celebrate well in the evening. Liu Guangming got up and said.
"Yes." Aimei nodded and went to the kitchen.
When Liu Tao came outside, he happened to see Zhang Dequan coming down from upstairs. He was holding a cardboard box that looked heavy in his hand, and when Liu Tao saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to take it.
"Liu Tao, when will your family move?" Zhang Dequan breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile.
"The day after tomorrow." Liu Tao put the cardboard box in the pocket of the car, turned his head and said.
"When the time comes, let's come to the house to play." Zhang Dequan sent out an invitation. Since he had dinner with Zhang Zhiwei's family, he wanted to find a time to talk to Liu Tao.
"Okay, no problem." Liu Tao readily agreed.
At this time, Zhang Qian came to Liu Tao and the others, holding a stack of books in her hand.
"Liu Tao, have you eaten?" Zhang Qian asked with a smile.
"Not yet. My mom does it at home. Liu Tao replied.
"When the weekend is off, you can come to my house as a guest." Zhang Qian, like Zhang Dequan, sent an invitation to Liu Tao.
"Yes. Just now, Uncle Zhang also asked me to go to your house to play. Liu Tao smiled and said.
Zhang Dequan saw that everything was almost pretended, and then went upstairs to take a walk around to see if anything had fallen. When it was confirmed that nothing had been left behind, he and Zhang Qian's mother came over.
At this time, Liu Guangming also came over.
"Lao Liu, I have time to play at home." Zhang Dequan greeted Liu Guangming.
"Okay! When the time comes, you will be ready to drink and eat. Liu Guangming said half-jokingly.
"These are trivial. It's getting late, and we'll have to go over and get our things down, and we'll talk about it another day. Zhang Dequan opened the car door as he spoke.
Zhang Qian glanced at Liu Tao, waved at him, and then got into the car. Then, the truck started and drove away.
Liu Guangming looked at the truck that disappeared around the corner, patted Liu Tao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Let's go, go home for dinner." ā
Liu Tao nodded and followed his father home.
The courtyard slowly fell silent.
