Chapter 255: Abominable Client
Zhong Huan really didn't expect his father to stand by his side this time. The last time he persuaded his parents to resign, his father was clearly in a united front with his mother. Just like Zhang Shulan said, their husband and wife are the kind of people who are used to hard work and simplicity, they will not squander pleasures if they have money, and they regard work as a part of their lives, and they will feel empty without work. Zhong Huan couldn't figure out whether the reason why his father changed his position was because he made a lot of money, or because his mother was beaten at work.
"Dad, don't just talk about my mom. Your salary is not much, so let's retire early with my mother. It's also a great way to hang out together. Zhong Huan tentatively persuaded his father.
"Nonsense! I'm not old enough to retire. How much less pension do you get for early retirement? My job is not hard, and it would be nice to stay up for a few more years and officially retire. Zhong Jianguo himself has no intention of resigning.
"You don't want to resign yourself, why do you want me to resign? I still have a few more years to do. Zhang Shulan hadn't considered resigning before today.
"I didn't quit my job to save my seniority and get a pension, and you have no insurance for your job, so why suffer from that anger. At the beginning, you were looking for this job to subsidize your family, and you didn't plan to work for a long time, but now that Xiaohuan is making money, you don't have to work hard. In the future, how good it would be for you to cook for our grandfather at home, why bother to cook for others and get beaten. Didn't you also say you didn't want to do it after you were beaten that day? Zhong Jianguo and his wife argued.
Zhong Huan heard it on the side, his father's concept has not changed because he makes money, and his mother's resignation is mostly related to the beating of his mother this time, it seems that things are not as simple as his mother said.
"My dad has a point. You just don't do it. Our family is not short of money. Zhong Huan felt that it might be a little difficult to persuade the old couple to resign together, so he simply took advantage of his father's support to move his mother.
"Look at the two of you singing and harmonizing, this resignation is a big deal. Can I think about it again? ”
Zhang Shulan saw that her husband and son did not support her work, and she was also a little shaken. For a woman with a traditional mindset, work is by no means as important as family. At the beginning, Zhang Shulan chose to work as an hourly worker in order to have time to take care of her family. Now that her family is not supportive and her work is not going well, Zhang Shulan can't help but quit.
"Yes, think about it again. Just like Xiao Huan said, we are rich now, so why bother to look at other people's faces. Zhong Jianguo didn't want to force his wife to make a statement. The tone softened.
"Hmm~ Then I'll think about it again." Zhang Shulan said as she began to clean up the table and prepare to wash the dishes.
Zhong Huan saw that his mother was busy, so he glanced at his father and hooked his fingers, and then walked to his house. Zhong Jianguo saw that his son had something to say. followed Zhong Huan into the house.
"Dad, who the hell beat my mom? Because of what? Zhong Huan asked in a low voice after entering the house and closing the door.
"I don't know who it is, but I know that it's a very rich customer, a woman. The quality is very low, and it is not a thing. Your mom went to her house to cook for her. She had a leg injury and couldn't get out of bed, so she asked your mother to bring the food to the kang table. As a result, she accidentally knocked over the food herself, so she asked your mother to clean it up and let your mother wash the quilt.
At that time, your mother's hour had arrived, so she told her that she needed to pay for the delay. She said that it was because the food burned her that she spilled the food, in short, she blamed your mother for being wrong, and she didn't want to add money to let your mother clean up. The mouth is not dry either. Your mother reasoned with her for a few sentences, and she slapped her. ”
Zhong Jianguo was angry when he mentioned this. The wife was wronged and did not want to tell her son. But she cried in front of her husband. Zhong Jianguo wanted to call the door after hearing this, but Zhang Shulan just didn't say the other party's address and name, and Zhong Jianguo didn't have a choice.
"And what about later? How was this resolved? ”
Zhong Huan frowned and continued to ask. He cares about what happened, and he cares more about the outcome of things. If the other party is just angry because he was injured, it is not incomprehensible, the key is whether he apologized after the beating.
"Alas~ It's only annoying to say it. Your mother's company has rules that you can't conflict with customers, and you can report to the company if something goes wrong. So your mom called the company and a few co-workers. The woman saw that your mother was calling to find someone, so she also called someone on the side. Your mother was looking for the director of the company and a few co-workers, and the woman found her husband and a few hooligans, but the matter couldn't be discussed, and she almost fought again, and finally had to call the police to solve it. Zhong Jianguo said with a sigh.
"And what did the police say?" Zhong Huan asked.
"The most annoying thing is the police. When the woman saw the police coming, she bit back, saying that your mother had knocked over the food and didn't care about cleaning it up. Of course, your mother won't admit it, just waiting for the police to judge. Later, I don't know what the hooligans said to the police, as if they knew someone, but the police believed the shrew's words, saying that your mother should clean up if she knocked things over, but the woman's beating was not right. The result is to ask your mother and co-workers to clean up their things, and let the woman pay your mother 20 yuan. You must know that your mother is twenty yuan an hour as an hourly worker, which is not the same as spending twenty yuan to let your mother clean up things! This slap was in vain. Your mother came back and cried all night because of this. ”
The more Zhong Jianguo spoke, the more angry he became, and the more Zhong Huan listened, the more angry he became. It's unheard of that the police are in league with the hooligans.
"Hmph~ It's not okay to fight in vain. I must get justice. Zhong Huan snorted coldly and said.
"Your mother didn't tell me who beat her, how can you seek justice? Besides, those people are unreasonable, even if you find them, what can you do? If you are injured by them again, your mother and I will be even more uncomfortable, so forget it. When your mom resigns, there's no such thing. Zhong Jianguo hurriedly persuaded his son when he heard that his tone was not good.
"You don't care about this, I have my own way."
Zhong Huan's mind turned and he knew how to find the family who beat people. It doesn't matter if his mother doesn't say it, Zhong Huan can go to the housekeeping company to ask those workers, he believes that there will always be someone to say.
"Jianguo, what are you and Xiao Huan muttering behind my back in the back room?" After washing the dishes, Zhang Shulan looked back and saw that her husband was not in the big house, so she was worried that he would go to talk to Zhong Huan about being beaten, so she hurriedly called someone.
"We didn't talk about you! is talking about Xiao Huan's business to make money. This is a trade secret and cannot be heard by outsiders. Xiao Huan, am I right? Zhong Jianguo opened the door and turned back to Zhong Huan to wink.
"Yes, yes, it's a trade secret. It's worth millions. Zhong Huan echoed.
"I'm not an outsider, can't you let me listen to it?" Zhang Shulan observed the expressions of her husband and son, and didn't see any indignant expressions on their faces, so she believed their words.
"Aren't you washing the dishes at the door? If Xiao Huan said louder for you to hear, then everyone in the corridor would hear it. Come into the house and let Xiao Huan tell you how he earned this money. After Zhong Jianguo lied, he could only let Zhong Huan come to the circle.
"Then I'll have to listen to it." Zhang Shulan wiped her hands and went into the house and sat down.
"Mom, let me tell you, last time Peng Lei and I went to Jiangcheng to participate in the Lan Fair, but we made a lot of money, and we were all in the newspapers......
Zhong Huan picked up and said something about what he had seen and heard about the Lan Fair, and then the old couple was fooled. However, he didn't say that the flowers were his own, only that his flower shop was selling for others, and most of the tens of millions of auction money were given to the owners of the flowers, and he and Peng Lei only made a small profit. In this way, even if the old couple sees the news of sky-high orchids in the future, Zhong Huan will not have to be afraid.
The family of three chatted for a while before Zhong Huan went back to the house to rest. But lying in bed, he couldn't sleep, his mind was full of his mother's beating, and he wondered how to help his mother get justice.
Just when Zhong Huan was tossing and turning, a girl he knew also suffered from insomnia, and this girl was Lin Wenjing. Zhong Huan's insomnia was due to the injury on his mother's face, and Lin Wenjing's insomnia was due to his father's illness.
Lin Zhongshan's disease is a benign tumor, which is not fatal under normal circumstances, but it also grows somewhere. Lin Zhongshan's tumor is bad because it is in a bad position, and it grows in the lumbar vertebrae.
As the tumor grew day by day, Lin Zhongshan's lumbar nerve was compressed. At the beginning, the performance was only back pain, and sometimes the legs and feet were not very neat, and Lin Zhongshan didn't take it seriously. However, the condition has become more and more serious, and now it has progressed to the point where it is impossible to walk. The doctor's advice is to have surgery to remove the tumor as soon as possible, otherwise there is a risk of paralysis and the tumor may become cancerous at any time.
Of course, Lin Wenjing and her mother Luo Yazhen wanted to operate on Lin Zhongshan, but the expensive surgery fees and surgical materials made the Lin family unable to afford it. To do this operation, the imported alloy materials that fill the lumbar spine gap after surgery alone will cost more than 200,000 yuan, and it cannot be reimbursed, plus the operation costs and hospitalization expenses, there is no 300,000 or 400,000 yuan that cannot be taken at all. This is not even counting the cost of resuming medication after surgery.
Luo Yazhen has been borrowing money everywhere these days, but she has only just collected 200,000 yuan of the material cost, and there is still a gap of at least 100,000 yuan from the operation fee. This made Luo Yazhen's hair a lot grayer.
Lin Wenjing also tried her best to raise money for her father's treatment, and cheekily borrowed some from classmates she knew. But the classmates around her don't have much money, and it's not easy to make up one or two thousand. The only one who is still rich is her roommate Hu Lili, Lin Wenjing opened her mouth twice, and she generously lent 10,000 yuan to Lin Wenjing each time, which made Lin Wenjing very moved.
Hu Lili borrowed more than 20,000 yuan plus more than 30,000 yuan borrowed by other classmates, but it was still a drop in the bucket compared with the surgery fees her father needed. Lin Wenjing went through it in her mind, and among the people she knew, only Hu Lili had a better family background, and she always wore a famous brand to show off among her classmates. Thinking that Hu Lili's bag was worth tens of thousands, and a set of clothes was enough for her father's surgery, Lin Wenjing had no choice but to borrow money from Hu Lili for the third time. As a result, Hu Lili said something, but Lin Wenjing was dumbfounded. (To be continued......)
