Chapter 242: Surprises abound
There is a way to worry about the mother of the child, who has never been out of this door since he was a child, and his son, who has not been home for a few months, has finally returned, Li Mei, who has always been thrifty and provincial, is naturally happy, and is really busy, fried a few good dishes, and filled the small glass coffee table in the living room. [Full text reading]
And Ma Mingquan, who has always been strict in personality, although he has never forgotten to maintain the majesty of being a father, but today he is also unable to hide his joy, although his son is not a return to his hometown this time, but it can definitely be called a breath: his son has a chance, and he, who is a father, will feel more face-saving when he goes out, look at these things that the child came back to buy, when the neighbors came before, there was still a Chinese tobacco Wuliangye wine on the coffee table that had not had time to be put away, and if it was passed out, could the people in the village not envy it?
As the saying goes, a tree lives with one skin, and a person lives with two faces.
Who said that people don't have to care about other people's opinions in life, they just need to live comfortably?
That's bullshit, it's self-consolation.
Face face, face to whom? It's like dressing up all day long to pick up yourself, isn't it for others to see it?
There are very few people who can really ignore all the eyes of others like that!
For Ma Mingquan and Li Mei, two ordinary rural people, happiness comes from being so simple and simple, the son has grown up, has promising, capable, knows how to honor them, let them have a face in front .........of people, and Ma Liang, the happiness and joy of his parents are in his eyes, and he is naturally happy in his heart.
During the meal, Ma Liang poured wine for his parents, with a slightly apologetic expression, and jokingly said to his mother: "Mom, after getting off the train, I walked around the city, and I thought about buying things for you and my dad, my dad said that it was okay to buy cigarettes and alcohol, but I was really worried about buying something for you......", I want to buy a few more clothes, and then buy a few pieces of jewelry, but I am worried that the purchase is not suitable for your heart, so I simply bought some nutritional products, and you and my dad usually make up for your body. ”
"When your dad and I weren't that age, we spent money indiscriminately." Li Mei's heart was full of joy, but she smiled and said with disgust, "In the future, you won't buy good cigarettes and wine for your father, don't get used to his stinky problem!" ”
"Liangzi, your mother has an opinion! Go back and buy a gold necklace ............for your mother and put it on," Ma Mingquan drank a little wine, and after a little drinking, he made a rare warm joke with his wife in front of his son.
Li Mei glanced at him and said, "You dead man has the ability to earn more money to buy it for me!" ”
Ma Liang listened to Hehe Zhile next to him, and then thought of something again, and said, "Xiaobai, go to the house and take out the passbook you just did "............"
Meow, Xiaobai answered softly, jumped off the coffee table and ran to Ma Liang's bedroom.
Ma Mingquan was stunned, and the two of them were dissatisfied because their son spoiled the little black cat on the coffee table to eat together, but after all, their son had just come back, so they didn't say anything. But now that this little black cat listened to Ma Liang's words, it seemed that he could understand, jumped down and ran into the bedroom, and looked at his son's very casual and natural appearance, as if he had been accustomed to telling this little black cat to do things for him on weekdays, "Liangzi, I haven't asked you yet, where did this kitten come from?" Li Mei asked in surprise.
"Hey, it's a coincidence, once it rained heavily, this little guy probably got lost, almost didn't get drenched, and lay in front of the yard I rented and didn't leave, I saw that she was pitiful, so I took her back and raised her." Ma Liang had already been prepared, so his expression and tone were very natural when he explained, and he said without stumbling: "I didn't think I would pick up a treasure, this little guy is so smart and likable, she can understand what you say." ”
Ma Mingquan wondered: "Isn't that like a dog?" ”
"Where's the same as a human!" , Ma Liang hurriedly said, although it was the words that came out of his father's mouth, but listening to him compare Xiaobai to a dog, Ma Liang was still a little uncomfortable, and he was worried that Xiaobai would be sad when he heard it.
As he spoke, Xiaobai had already trotted out happily, holding an Agricultural Bank passbook in his mouth.
After arriving in front of Ma Liang, Xiaobai tilted his head and squinted his tail and wagged his tail, making a meow meow in his mouth, looking well-behaved and flattering, not to mention being more likeable.
Ma Liang stretched out his hand to take the passbook, and said with a doting face: "Xiaobai is really good, go eat by yourself." ”
Xiaobai shook her tail, jumped to the corner of the coffee table, squinted her eyes and whimpered twice at Ma Mingquan and Li Meimeow, and then lowered her head and ate the meal that Ma Liang had served for her in a small bowl.
Li Mei saw that what she liked in her heart was not good, so she couldn't help but reach out and hold Xiaobai on her lap, and personally took a piece of ham sausage to feed Xiaobai, while saying happily: "Liangzi, you are usually busy with work, just leave this little black cat at home for your mother, and I will take care of it for you" ......, my mother is usually bored at home, and there is such a smart, sensible and well-behaved kitten to accompany me to relieve my boredom, and every day is also interesting. ”
"Don't." Ma Liang hurriedly said.
Xiaobai reacted even more violently, and after hearing this, he suddenly broke away from Li Mei's hand and jumped onto Ma Liang's lap, looking at Ma Liang pitifully and meowing twice.
"Yo, this little guy really understands words." Li Mei and her husband were taken aback.
Ma Ji raised his hand to comfort Xiaobai, and explained with a smile: "Mom, don't mind, Xiaobai recognized me alone when I was a girl, when I was in Beijing, our boss paid 100,000 yuan to buy her, and I wanted to sell it at that time, but this girl cried............ I really couldn't bear to sell her, so I kept her with me. ”
"Huh?" Li Mei was more and more surprised when she heard this, Ma Mingquan originally wanted to reprimand his son for talking nonsense in front of him, a cat can be worth 100,000 yuan? But looking at the little black cat's current appearance and expression, and thinking about the scene just now and the little black cat's sensible behavior, Ma Mingquan also had to believe his son's words. Then he smiled and nodded and said, "It's rare that this little thing understands feelings, so keep it, not everything can be bought with money............ Ryoko, why did you give it a white name? It's obviously a little black. Speaking of this, Ma Mingquan laughed heartily.
"Dad, didn't I say it all, Xiaobai is a girl, how ugly it is to call Xiaohei." Ma Liang said with a smile.
"Oh, yes, yes." , Li Mei listened to what her son just said, and her eyes were moistened by the emotion, and she couldn't help but stretch out her hand and drag Xiaobai into her arms" gently and lovingly stroked Xiaobai's smooth and supplified fur, and said with pity as if talking to herself: "It's rare to be such a little thing that values love and righteousness and spirituality, but you can't wronged it, alas." Xiaobai also seemed to be moved by Li Mei's sense of love and pity, with a pair of big watery eyes as bright as black jewels, looking up at Li Mei, meowing and meowing, while sticking out his tongue and licking Li Mei's hand.
Looking at this warm scene, Ma Liang suddenly had an idea in his heart, and said with a smile: "Mom" Why don't you just move to Beijing with me, and when you get there, you can let Xiao Bai Tiantian accompany you. "Talking nonsense, I can't cook for your dad at home? Li Mei said angrily.
Ma Mingquan said with a smile: "I think what Liangzi said is also right, in the future, you will go to Beijing to live in Beijing for a few days every once in a while, help Liangzi pick up the residence, cook for him or something...... Oh yes, there is a holiday in the factory during the national market, so let's go to Beijing for a walk. "No, no, what are you going to do with that money. Li Mei shook her head and said, but there was a trace of hesitation and yearning in her eyes.
Of course, Ma Liang knew that his mother was thinking about how much money she had to save, "I have to buy a house, I have to marry a daughter-in-law for my son and start a family." So he smiled and handed the passbook in his hand to his mother, and said, "Mom, I only bought you two clothes this time, and I don't know if it's appropriate, but I bought some cigarettes and alcohol for my father, which seems to be biased by my son...... Actually, "I still have a preference for you in my heart, then, when I was shopping in the city, I made a passbook by the way, and I saved some money in it, and you took it and spent it casually, "Buy whatever you want, it's more practical than me buying you something, right?" ”
"It's still better than my son" is much better than your dad. Li Mei took it with a smile, thinking that this money was her son's salary, "I will save it for my son when I go back."
"Rabbit cub, really eccentric?" , Ma Mingquan scolded with a smile.
Ma Liang pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Who made you always beat me ...... before", "Yo ho, you dare to remember Lao Tzu's hatred, right?" Ma Mingquan laughed more and more.
At this time, Li Mei had already opened the passbook, and after seeing the amount of deposit on it, she was immediately shocked, with an expression of disbelief on her face, and counted silently in her heart, one, ten, hundred, thousand, thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand...... Li Mei cried out in a lost voice: "Oh my God, Liangzi, where did you get so much money? ”
"Huh?" Ma Mingquan frowned, reached out and took the passbook from his wife with a confused expression, and was immediately stunned after looking at it.
Good guys, half a million?!
For an ordinary rural family, an ordinary working family, the deposit of 500,000 yuan is definitely a huge amount, and Ma Mingquan has worked hard for ten years, but he can't earn 500,000 yuan...... Coupled with all the expenses in his usual life, he can save 500,000 yuan in fifteen years, thank God, because there has been no major incident in the family!
So how could the two of them have the luxury of expecting a huge deposit of 500,000 yuan to appear in their passbook?
Of course, this does not include the future of the son.
But their son has only left school and entered the society for two or three months!
Looking at his parents' surprised expressions, Ma Liang was secretly glad that he was fortunate that he had an extra heart and didn't transfer all the money on the card to the passbook. Otherwise, the deposit of nearly two million must not surprise my father, and after doubting it, he directly brandished a stick and tortured him, forcing himself to admit that he went out to make money as a magic stick?
Ma Liang knew that although his father resolutely refused to let himself be a god, he knew very well that the spells taught by his grandfather were not completely superstitious things that fooled people.
At the same time, because of the shadow left by his childhood memories, Dad is very stubborn that those spells will only bring great disasters and misfortunes to their family! ~!
