Chapter 283: Being Able to Take Care of Yourself
Dong Cao didn't have time to pay attention to the speculation on the barrage, he smiled at his fellow countryman and asked, "Brother Zhang, your family lives in the back, so do you live here for a long time, or do you only come back to live occasionally?" ”
The fellow was stunned by the question, and said a little puzzled: "Of course I have lived here for a long time, my family is only this house, where can I live if I don't live here." ”
"Ahh Dong Cao's eyes sank, and he said, "What do you usually do, Brother Zhang, I see that you are dressed quite plainly." ”
"I'm a peasant."
"Don't look at this side as a building, but I'm a farmer, why don't I farm." The fellow looked at Dong Cao strangely.
"Have you been farming all the time?"
"Yes, my family has always been a farmer, and there have never been any big people in the family."
Dong Cao smiled and said, "What about your child, what are they doing?" ”
"I have two sons, and they both went to school." mentioned his children, the fellow squinted his eyes happily, and praised him repeatedly, "My two sons are all angry, they are all admitted to college, and they will all have success in the future." ”
Dong Cao asked casually: "Are you tired of going to college for two children?" ”
"I'm tired, so how can I not be tired." The fellow sighed and said in a sullen voice: "Although those two children are angry, they can spend money in the end, not counting tuition and accommodation fees, they will get 1,000 yuan a month, and the two of them together will be 2,000." ”
"I wondered, how could they spend so much money when they had food and drink in school, and I don't know who they learned from this big-spending character."
Dong Cao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "There is a cafeteria in the school, and the food in the cafeteria may not be so delicious, so they don't like to eat in the cafeteria." ”
"Alas, it's not, those two children always told me that the food in the cafeteria is not delicious, and the dormitory doesn't let them cook, I really don't know what those university dormitory managers think, so they have to let the children eat those unpalatable and expensive canteens, and don't let them buy a small pot to cook by themselves."
"If I can buy a small pot to cook, I can still have hundreds left a month." The fellow frowned unhappily, compared to the two sons who added 2,000 yuan together in addition to paying tuition and accommodation fees a month, he was very worried.
But after finishing speaking, the fellow smiled a little, "My two sons are quite sensible, and they go out to work during the winter and summer vacations, and they can earn two or three thousand a month." They don't spend it, they just keep it for school use, buy a pen, a book, and sometimes buy two clothes, which also saves the family a lot of money. ”
"Look at my watch, my sons bought it for the Chinese New Year last year, and it was more than 2,000, and I was usually reluctant to wear it, if I didn't go out to see you today, I wouldn't be willing to wear it."
"Did you come to see us?" Dong Cao smiled lightly.
The fellow probably knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly muttered: "I heard that a big star came to record the show, so I wanted to come over and take a look, and I remembered that there was something else at home, so I left first." ”
Without waiting for Dong Cao to speak, the fellow left in a hurry, as if someone was chasing him behind him.
Dong Cao didn't hold back, he walked back behind the camera and looked at Hou Ziyan with deep eyes.
Hou Ziyan was also looking at Dong Cao, his eyes were just such a pair, he knew that Dong Cao could see everything.
Are these people who come to send money stupid? Even if it is 120,000 yuan, he even sent someone to send 100,000 yuan at one time, and he didn't look at what other people's families were like, he was reluctant to wear a 2,000 yuan watch, and he let people make a move for 100,000 yuan, is it possible?
Hou Ziyan's eyes were gloomy, and Hou Linlin also noticed that something was wrong, she stared down at the money in the piano case, frowning and not knowing what she was thinking.
[This is fake, right? That fellow doesn't look like a rich man, how can he be 100,000 yuan as soon as he makes a move? The 100,000 should be very important to him. 】
[It must be fake, did you see the briefcase in his hand?] That's the L brand, starting at 30,000. But all that fellow cared about was the 2,000-yuan watch on his wrist, as if he didn't know how much the bag was. 】
[Generations have lived here, and their ancestors are all farmers, and there is only one house, which means that this family is not very wealthy, and it is not the kind of rich people who come to settle in the countryside. 】
[The child is in college, which means that he has no ability to make money, and the family has a headache for each of them for a thousand yuan for food, but a thousand yuan is really not much in a modern university. 】
[The ancestor has no money, the child has no ability, and he is a farmer, so why can he casually take out 100,000 yuan to support an unfamiliar star? ] It's not scientific. 】
[The questions asked by the director team are actually quite tricky, and we all feel that something is wrong with just a few questions, this director is very smart. So now what does he want to do about it? 】
[This is the money sent by the Hou family, at first glance, it is the money sent by someone, otherwise who will be fine will be rewarded with tens of thousands of dollars. It's not online, you can pay directly with your mobile phone, or you can take it in cash. You see that the cash is not bundled, it has just been withdrawn from the bank, which farmer uncle will deliberately withdraw the money and come over to give a reward, is it a fool to be an audience? 】
[What about those who say that the peasants are rich and don't look down on the peasants? Come out quickly, why don't you refute it at this time? 】
[What we mean by this is that the peasants are not all people who have no money, and there are also rich people among the peasants. But we farmers are very simple, and we won't slap our swollen faces like this, and there must be something strange about this matter. 】
……
On the barrage, the sound of one after another sounded, Dong Cao looked at Hou Ziyan lightly, and then moved his gaze to Hou Linlin.
Hou Linlin also seemed to notice that something was wrong, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Dong Cao.
After a pause for a few seconds, Dong Cao said: "This money is the love of the fellow countryman for you, but it can also be seen that the living standard of the villager is not rich, so let's return the money." ”
"Before I came, the program team said that they would not interfere in your life, you can do whatever you want, but fan gifts are not allowed. It's your ability to make the fellow like it so much, but the amount of money is too much, and it will affect the life of the fellow's family, so give me the money and I'll help you pay it back, okay? ”
Hou Linlin nodded, her face was flushed, and Hou Ziyan also nodded in agreement.
At a time like this, how stupid they would be if they couldn't figure out what was going on. Hou Linlin glanced at Dong Cao gratefully, thanking him for saving the face of their brother and sister and not exposing this matter in public.
She obediently gave all the money in the money box to Dong Cao, and they really didn't make any money in the morning, except for the hundreds of dollars that were scattered to buy paintings, there were only bundles of hundred-yuan bills. There are ordinary people who want to come over to give rewards, and they seem to be frightened when they see these bundles of 100-yuan bills, and no one dares to come.
Dong Cao took the piano case and took out all the bundles of hundred-yuan bills inside, and then returned the remaining scattered hundreds of yuan to Hou Linlin and Hou Ziyan, "You have worked hard for a day, I can't take all the money away." ”
"These are the money from the fellow who made an appointment with you yesterday to buy paintings, and you have earned them all your hard-earned money, so take them back."
Hou Linlin took the money a little embarrassed, feeling that her face was as red as fire, she whispered thank you, and then ran away with her skirt.
The cameraman hurriedly followed, Hou Linlin was already talking on the phone with his mobile phone, he didn't get too close, as if he had realized what was happening.
The old lady Hou who was far away in the imperial capital was also watching the live broadcast, and when she saw Hou Linlin calling, she subconsciously looked at her mobile phone, and then the screen really lit up.
Old Madam Hou sighed, and picked up the phone with some distress, "Linlin baby." ”
"Mom's ......"
Hou Linlin called out with a crying voice, anxious and embarrassed, she said repeatedly: "Mom, my brother and I are doing well, we can take care of ourselves, you don't have to worry." ”
"You and Dad are at home and we can just wait for us to go back, we don't have to do anything, and when we go back, my brother and I will cook for you, and we will all cook now."
Old Madam Hou sighed, knowing that Hou Linlin was asking her not to send money over, she couldn't help feeling distressed, but said: "Okay, I know, then you and Ziyan take good care of yourself, and your mother will come back with you." ”
Hou Linlin asked again: "The director of our program group is also very good to us, although he can't help us because of the regulations, but he is very good at thinking about people, and he has taught us a lot of things, when the show is finished, I must invite him to dinner, thank him for taking care of him during this time, thank him for saving our face, will it be okay for mom and dad to come together then?" ”
Because of the camera, it was inconvenient for Hou Linlin to say too much, but Mrs. Hou understood what she meant.
She asked them not to worry about this matter with Dong Cao, even if Dong Cao confiscated the money, but also saved their face, this is a live broadcast, it is really not easy for Dong Cao to do so perfectly without the live broadcast being down.
Mrs. Hou also sighed a little, she naturally understood everything, but she loved her daughter very much, and she was really reluctant to see Hou Linlin suffer.
Hearing Mrs. Hou's promise, Hou Linlin hung up the phone, she looked at the phone for a long time, and then whispered: "Although my brother and I don't know anything, we are willing to study and study hard." ”
"We're getting stronger little by little and we're working really hard."
Her voice is very small and small, even if she wears Mai Shuiyou, she can't hear it, in the eyes of others, she is sad because she missed more than 200,000 yuan, and she is sad alone after calling her mother to complain. But in the eyes of the discerning people, they naturally know what is happening.
[Actually, Hou Linlin is also quite good, at first I thought it was expensive and delicate, and I didn't bring any flat shoes to the countryside, just thinking about Meimei's appearance in front of the camera, and I didn't even help my brother carry the suitcase. But after watching it for two days, I found that she has a very good personality, and the reason why she is like this is because of the family environment. 】
[Since I was a child, I have been held in the palm of my hand, if I have so many people holding it, I may be more arrogant than her, from the fact that she can quickly adapt to everything, do her own laundry, and can wear slippers unkempt, I think she is actually very good. 】
[After all, it's a real eldest lady, the kind of person who hasn't suffered since he was a child, and it's good to have the performance he has now.] It's understandable that the pain at home is understandable, and I don't want my son and daughter to suffer, but it's not good to break the rules of the game like this. 】
[Those 'fellows' were found to be entrusted at first glance, which fellow can be so generous, is it a fool to be an audience? ] 】
