Chapter 62: A Feeling of Home (1)
When Li Huan got off the plane in Yanjing, the city was already a scene of foreign festivals, Santa Claus and Christmas trees seemed to have moved from Europe and the United States to China at once, and the atmosphere was full of "merrychristmas" steak flavor everywhere! When you come to Hengshui, the Christmas atmosphere in the city is very indifferent, and only a few shops have Santa Claus stickers on the glass doors.
The white Santana taxi parked downstairs in the Anju community did not cause a little scratch, the car here is also normal with Yanjing's license plate, in this small place, the license plate on the second-hand car is varied in various provinces and cities, most of them are black cars and scrapped cars, Hengshui's traffic police are a must in the country, as long as you are willing to spend money, there is nothing that can't be done.
Yanjing's brother helped Li Huan carry the luggage behind the car, and said, "Dude is so filial, he bought so many things for the family." ”
Li Huan said lightly: "There are still friends." ”
When he arrived at the door of his house, Li Huan paid the fare to his brother and rang the doorbell at home. The door was opened almost as quickly as possible, revealing Li Xiao's eager face, seeing Li Huan, Li Xiao jumped up, hugged Li Huan, and said, "Brother, you are finally here!" Li Huan was a little unaccustomed to it, gently pushed Li Xiao away, and said, "Come, help me move the things outside into the house." ”
Li Xiao went to get something and shouted loudly into the house, "Mom and Dad, my brother is back." My brother came."
Li Jianguo and his wife hurriedly walked out of the house, Dong Mei saw Li Huan, who was tanned by the scorching sun, her eyes blurred with tears, she reached out and took the gift bag, and said, "Let me come, you flew for a day, hurry back to the house to rest, my mother made you your favorite dish." ”
Li Huan said: "Mom, no need, I'm not tired, it's quite heavy." ”
But Dong Mei resolutely disagreed, and forcibly took the luggage bag from Li Huan's hand. Li Jianguo stood aside and did not speak, but he has always been very serious and has a smile on his face that cannot be concealed, knowing that Li Huan played in the German Second Division, he knew how much influence Li Huan had in the minds of fans, he just revealed the news intentionally or unintentionally, recently all relatives, friends and colleagues have been more enthusiastic about him, and there are many more guests at home than before, and even the director is impressed by him, far more influential than his promotion to deputy section.
Back in the living room, Li Huan lay down on the sofa, took an 11-hour flight, and took a taxi for five or six hours, Li Huan really didn't want to sit anymore, "Xiaoxiao, I'm so tired, you open the two black bags, inside I brought you and your parents Christmas gifts, look at what I bought for you." ”
Li Jianguo saw Li Huan lying on the sofa, his legs crossed on the edge of the sofa, his brows furrowed, if it was in the past, he would definitely say 'sit or stand or stand', but now his son has become the idol of Chinese fans, the darling of the media and reporters, and now Li Huan can often be seen playing football on TV, and his achievements have surpassed his small sub-department, and Li Jianguo is inconvenient to reprimand him casually like before.
Dong Mei saw two big bags of food and play, and said, "This kid, we are not the West, what Christmas gifts to buy." ”
Li Xiao beside him suddenly shouted excitedly: "Computer! Laptop. ”
Li Huan said lazily: "There is no good book in Germany, what I bought you is still Dell's new model, which is a little stronger than the general desktop surname, make do with it first, there are three Siemens mobile phones in it, one for each of you and your parents." Do you like it by looking at the color and the style? ”
Li Xiao excitedly found three beautifully boxed mobile phones, opened one of them and said, "I like silver-white ones, brother, how much does it cost to have a computer and a mobile phone?" ”
Li Huan smiled and said, "Tens of thousands of yuan." ”
"Tens of thousands?!" Dong Mei exclaimed in surprise and said, "Huanhuan, how did you buy so many mobile phones and such a good computer, your father and I both have mobile phones, Xiaoxiao wants to take the university entrance examination, and the computer can't be used, otherwise I would have bought it for him a long time ago." What are you spending so much money for? ”
Soon Dong Mei shouted again, "This kid, how can I wear these clothes as an old woman, it's really a waste." ”
Li Jianguo finally couldn't help it and asked, "Xiao Huan, how much did it cost to buy these things?" ”
Li Huan thought for a while and said, "Less than 100,000 yuan." ”
Li Jianguo and his wife and Li Xiao were a little stunned, Dong Mei has been teaching for more than 20 years, and now her salary is only 1,1300, although Li Jianguo is a little higher in the Education Commission, but it is only 1,500 yuan, and the Education Commission is a Qingshui Yamen, he is a deputy head of the basic education department There is not much benefit to be gained, and the Christmas gifts Li Huan bought actually cost their husband and wife more than three years of income without eating or drinking, how can the family not be surprised. And there are two unopened bags for friends next to them, but I'm afraid that the cost will definitely not be less, adding up to 200,000. They know that professional players make money, but they don't know how much they can make.
Li Jianguo said: "Huanhuan, how much money can you get a year?" ”
Li Huan said: "When I first went, it was a little less, but later it increased, and the miscellaneous ones added up to more than one million." In fact, plus the appearance fee, goal award, assist award, training fee and advertising fee, Li Huan can almost get more than 3 million yuan, Li Huan doesn't want to scare his parents, so he says half of it.
Li Jianguo frowned, this kid has been spending money lavishly since he was a child, and he often steals the family's money to spend, although he can make money now, but he only has more than one million a year, and he spent 200,000 yuan for Christmas, isn't this a luxurious and erosive lifestyle? No, if it goes on like this, how much money he makes can be ruined by him, and he can only play football for a few years, people say that this industry eats youth rice, no, this money has to be kept for him in the future, and he can't be allowed to spend money without a door. But now Li Huan has just returned, and Li Jianguo faintly feels that his son has changed a lot compared to before, he doesn't want to mention this matter now, so he said: "Huanhuan, save a little flower in the future, don't waste what you don't need, just like Christmas now, what does it have to do with us Chinese, that is, young people looking for a chance to play, lively, what to spend so much money for?" ”
Li Huan smiled faintly and said, "I think it's the first time I return to China, and Xiaoxiao also wants a computer." So it cost a little more, in fact, the computer and mobile phone are worth a little money. ”
Dong Mei also persuaded: "Huanhuan, it's not that you made you unhappy when you first came, your mother is also happy to buy so many gifts for your mother, but money can't be spent like this, you have never been poor, your father and I only had a monthly salary of more than 20 yuan when we first worked, but we can still save some money every month to help my family." ”
Li Xiao interrupted her mother's preaching and said, "Mom, don't be old-fashioned, what age is it, why are you mentioning that matter, my brother is more than one million a year, what is it that he spent 100,000 yuan, he was verbose when he just came, no wonder my brother is reluctant to go home." ”
Li Huan hurriedly said: "What are you talking about with a smile, I'm busy and don't have time." ”
Dong Mei said: "Okay, okay, I'm an old stubborn old feudal, I'll go cook, your father and son are chatting, and there may be a few friends to visit after dinner." ”
Li Jianguo coughed dryly and said, "Huanhuan, why don't you discuss such a big matter as going to Germany to play football?" ”
Li Huan had already thought of what to deal with, and said: "At that time, a foreign friend in the island city introduced me, and I didn't know if it would be successful, so I didn't tell my family, I wanted to wait until I signed a contract with the club, and then I was worried that the media and reporters would disturb the peaceful life of the family, so I didn't make a noise." ”
What Li Huan said is also reasonable, Li Jianguo has felt the pressure from relatives and friends these days, almost everyone will talk to him about his son when he sees him, and the reporters in the county have also interviewed him, but Hengshui is poor, and football is not hot, otherwise it may be more troublesome.
"Actually, there's nothing to discuss, your mother and I don't know anything about professional football, so it's better for you to make your own decisions, at most to give you a wake-up call. At least the current result is good, you have a chance, your mother and I are also relieved, over the years, since you went to Jianghai University, we have been worried about your marriage and buying a house, and we have worked hard to save money for a few years, but it is always not as fast as the house price rises, and it is not enough for you to pay a down payment in a big city, alas, it is now just used to provide for your younger brother to go to college. Li Jianguo sighed.
Li Huan and this father are not speculative, they came home for less than three days in total, and they did not speak more than twenty words, this is the first time I heard Li Jianguo confide in his heart, this is a father's wordless love for his son, although he can only be regarded as his half son, but this ** reinvention grace can not be forgotten, he smiled and said: "Dad, you don't have to worry about Xiaoxiao going to school, the money saved by the family, you can improve your life, usually go out to travel during the May 11 Golden Week, and when you are older, your health is not good, don't think about going anywhere." ”
Li Xiao was fiddling with the new functions of his mobile phone on the side, and said, "You don't have to worry about anything when I go to college, just give me my annual tuition, and I work like my brother to earn living expenses." ”
Li Jianguo's face sank, and he said: "What kind of work, learn knowledge well, lay a good foundation, there will be money to earn in the future, don't be so anxious to patronize the immediate success, the family lacks your living expenses." ”
Li Huan smiled and said: "Xiaoxiao, don't think so much, prepare well for a good university, Hengshui No. 2 Middle School seems to be very good, if you don't want to go to China again, I will send you to Germany to study." ”
Li Xiao Daxi sat next to Li Huan and hugged Li Huan's neck and said: "Okay, brother, I don't think Peking University and Tsinghua University are interesting, I want to study in Germany, the University of Munich, and the University of Karlsruhe, where your club is located, seems to be good, I checked it on the Internet." ”
Li Jianguo said unhappily: "Xiaoxiao, you have just entered the second year of high school, don't think so much, wait until next year, if your grades are not good, don't go anywhere, save yourself from being embarrassed and thrown abroad." ”
