Chapter 396 396 Returning home
This time to help the underworld to carry out construction, in addition to the benefits promised to me by King Qin Guang, it can be said that I am completely voluntary.
Although my work is not hard, just command and dispatch, but only work has no benefit, how can I accept it.
So in the previous negotiations, I also reached an agreement with the underworld, I helped them transport all kinds of materials from the underworld, but also from their underworld, I asked for a little something.
What I want is not important, it can even be said to be ordinary, just some flowers and plants in the underworld.
However, the flowers and plants of the underworld have a great effect on me!
These carriages that came to the sun to receive goods were loaded with a variety of flowers and plants.
When they arrived, they took off the flowers and plants, and drove them back to the underworld with these materials.
And these flowers and plants, let's put them here first.
Anyway, the flowers and plants in the underworld are originally dead flowers and dead plants, so you don't have to worry about them not being alive.
This time, a total of twenty carriages came, and the yang side had already been cleared by me, and I just watched from the sidelines, and there were Yin soldiers and ghost soldiers who were busy with the work, unloading and loading, and everything was in order.
Seeing that what I needed arrived as scheduled, I was also relieved.
Just as he was about to go back, a phone call came in.
Not many people know my number, and even fewer call me.
So when the phone rings, I can guess without looking at the number that something must be wrong.
After taking out my mobile phone, I was even more stunned, the call turned out to be from home.
Home, my hometown, my parents.
They don't call me often, and it's night, so what are you calling me for?
I quickly picked up the phone, and the person talking to me was my father.
"Xiaofeng, how are you doing?"
"Okay." I replied immediately, and then I couldn't help but ask, "Dad, are you in trouble?" ”
Dad was stunned: "How do you know?" ”
I said, "You don't call me when you're fine." ”
Dad smiled, as if he was smiling bitterly. Dad smiled and said, "Usually your mother always talks to you, if you want to call, she will call you, and it won't be my turn." ”
I also smiled and said, "My mom is good, right?" ”
"It's good, it's good." Dad hurriedly said.
"Then you ......"
I always felt a little strange, my father was an honest man, I knew he was thinking about me, but he was not good at expressing it, and he didn't say anything in his heart.
Dad suddenly said, "I heard that you opened a small restaurant outside?" ”
"Hmm." I said yes.
I just thought in my heart, should I tell my father about my current inheritance.
At this time, my father asked, "Xiaofeng, do you have money now?" ”
Belch......
I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Dad, don't worry, I can make money by myself now, and I have enough money to spend." ”
Dad seemed to be smiling bitterly again, and said with a slight laugh: "But our family is short of money now." ”
I was refreshed for a while, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong at home?" ”
On the other side of the phone, my father seemed to be a little speechless, and said hesitantly: "At home...... I'm a little short of money right now, if you, if you still have money......"
Without waiting for my dad to finish, I hurriedly said, "I have money!" How much do you need? ”
"Alas!" Dad sighed, "I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money this time, at least ...... Fifty thousand, no! 40,000 yuan is enough, and the family has already made up more than 20,000 yuan, and there is still a gap of 40,000 yuan. ”
I couldn't help frowning, what the hell is wrong with the family, why use money?
My parents are honest rural people, and in our place, there are rich people, that is, tens of thousands of yuan in savings. In the countryside, if you plant a few acres of thin fields and have a little savings, you can basically live an ordinary and ordinary life.
Therefore, I didn't dare to tell my parents about my business, mainly because I was afraid of scaring them, but there were many things that I couldn't explain.
And now......
What can Dad do with money?
Dad doesn't gamble, he has always been honest, and it is impossible to owe others so much money at once.
Thinking about it, I immediately said, "Dad, you don't have to worry about money, I have a lot of savings now." Tell me first, what the hell is going on? ”
Dad sighed: "Alas, it's not a big deal, it's just your second uncle, and your second uncle came to ask for the money of the year." ”
The money of the year......
Hearing this, I couldn't help but frown.
Then I immediately said, "Didn't you pay them all the money back then?" ”
Dad sighed again and said helplessly: "What happened back then...... It's a bit complicated to say now, your second uncle is not a scoundrel, they are really in a hurry to use the money now, so if we have money, let's make it together and give it back to them. ”
"Good!" I replied immediately.
Hearing my dad say that, I knew that if I continued to ask like this, my dad wouldn't say anything.
I said, "Dad, you send me our card number, and I'll call you the money now." ”
"Card number?" Dad was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is the passbook okay?" ”
Bankbook......
I couldn't help but smile wryly.
Looks like it's time for me to go home.
My hometown is not far from Jiangcheng, and if you make a bus and reverse it back and forth, it will take four hours.
But on my extended Humvee, more than two hours is enough.
On this trip, I only brought Xue Wu, nothing else, I needed a driver.
Of course, I still need a ghost at night, this time it's Qiqi with me, I'll put her in the Qiankun bag, otherwise this little guy will always be dishonest.
After asking Dong Qiang to prepare enough cash for me, I embarked on the return journey back to my hometown overnight.
Along the way, Xue Wu asked me this and that, my hometown, my parents, whether they had a good temper, and whether they would dislike her......
After I answered them one by one, Xue Wu said again: "Then this time...... Even if you take me to see my family, right? ”
I was stunned.
To be honest, I didn't think of that before I left.
Now that I think about it, that's exactly what happened.
Xue Wu is my girlfriend, and going home with me is not equivalent to going back to my hometown with me and meeting my parents.
Thinking like this, I agreed, "What, are you afraid?" ”
"I ......"
Xue Wu's face was a little red, and he said shyly: "I'm not afraid, but this is the first time I've been to your house, and I always have to bring a little gift?" ”
I thought about it, and that's just as well.
In the past, I went home alone, empty-handed, and I was used to it, and I really couldn't remember what gifts to buy when I went home.
But now that I hear Xue Wu talk about it, I also feel quite ashamed.
Every time I left the house, my mother always boiled tea eggs for me, brought peaches from the peach tree at home, and told me this and that.
And every time I go back, I can't remember what to buy for them.
Today, after Xue Wu's reminder, I also feel that I want to buy something.
Soon, before the car drove out of Jiangcheng, it stopped in front of a 24-hour convenience store, and Xue Wu and I both walked in.
It was past ten o'clock in the evening, there were no customers in the convenience store, and the only cashier was dozing off at the cash register, and when he saw us coming in, he just glanced up, and then lowered his head again and fiddled with his mobile phone.
Xue Wu and I looked casually, Xue Wu was about to take a few bird's nest or other health supplements, I shook my head again and again.
These things are flashy, and my understanding of my parents makes it seem very expensive to buy these things, and they are reluctant to eat them when they buy them, but they have no effect.
Xue Wu asked, "Does your father smoke?" ”
I shook my head.
Xue Wu asked again: "Then does he drink?" ”
I thought for a while and said, "My dad does drink, but he doesn't drink much, but it's really good to buy wine, I heard him say before, when he used to work outside, he drank more than 100 yuan of wine once, and he always remembered it......"
"Then let's buy a few bottles of wine."
Saying that, Xue Wu looked at the shelves selling wine, and quickly picked out two boxes.
I took one look and picked up two more boxes.
Taking the selected wine to pay, the listless waiter glanced at the wine, then at us, opened his mouth and said disdainfully: "This is fifteen years of Moutai, two thousand nine hundred and nine, not two hundred and ninety-nine." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at us blankly, like looking at two dirt buns, and lowered his head and fiddled with his phone.
Xue Wu couldn't help but say: "Ah, it's so expensive, this bottle of wine is worth a month's salary." Just now I just looked at the packaging and it was beautiful, I couldn't imagine it......"
The cashier snorted again, making a look of recognition.
I smiled, stopped Xue Wu's thin waist, and said softly: "The first time I went to my house and saw my parents, shouldn't I buy something slightly better?" ”
Xue Wu nodded: "Yes!" As long as your dad is happy, no matter how expensive it is, it's worth it. ”
As he spoke, Xue Wu was about to go to his wallet to get the card.
I stopped her and said with a smile, "You're my girlfriend, it's good to have this intention." You are in charge of the mind, and I am in charge of spending the money. ”
With that, I pulled out my card and slapped it on the table.
The cashier was stunned: "Really bought?" ”
I gave him a blank look: "Less nonsense." ”
The cashier didn't say much, swiped the card, and muttered softly: "I don't have the money to learn to pretend to be ......."
This cashier is really interesting.
For such a person, I didn't bother to pay attention to him, so I carried the wine and walked out of the store.
But after all, we bought something for more than 10,000 yuan, and Xue Wu and I were both carrying two gift boxes, and the cashier opened the door for us with great interest.
Outside the door was our extended Humvee, and when the cashier saw the car, out of the corner of my eye, I saw him twitch his mouth......
The car was driving on the road, and Xue Wu and I talked about our hometown.
When I talked about the poverty in my hometown, I suddenly had some thoughts.
My hometown is a good place, although it is a little poor, but the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the scenery is pleasant, if you develop tourism......
However, this time I brought Xue Wu home, which was originally mainly to send money to the family, but now it has become taking my girlfriend home to meet my parents.
The first time I brought it was not Yuting, nor Bai Bing, but Xue Wu, saying that it was a pity, it was better to say that it was a coincidence, or it was providence!
The car drove from the national highway into the country road, and from the country road, to the dirt road outside the village.
By the time they arrived at the entrance of the village, this kind of extended car could no longer drive in.
Immediately, Xue Wu and I parked the car at the entrance of the village, and we walked towards the village with wine, staring at the moonlight, stepping on the land.
It's so dark at night in the countryside!
