Chapter 70: A Request for Support
Can't buy a train ticket so you didn't take your partner home?
Zhong Yuan's parents looked at him with a suspicious expression, and probably thought in their hearts: "I don't read much, don't lie to me." ”
But although they doubted, they still did not question.
The fact is that the son didn't bring the object home, if the question finds out that the son doesn't have a partner at all, wouldn't it make the son very faceless?
So they could only sigh according to Zhong Yuan's words, and expressed great regret about the difficulty of buying tickets for the Spring Festival.
After Zhong Yuan prevaricated this matter, a cold sweat broke out behind his back. When he entered the house, his face was black-the furniture in the house was still the old furniture that was older than him before, large, bulky, and shabby, which looked particularly out of place in the new house.
He couldn't help but say, "Dad, Mom, can we not be so economical?" Throw away all these old things and replace them with new furniture." ”
"Why throw it away?" his father patted the chair beside him, "it's old, it's good." You see, it's all solid wood. ”
"Why do you want that quality?" Zhong Yuan smiled bitterly, "Do you have to use it for a lifetime? ”
His father's eyes widened: "Change to a new one, then don't you need money?"
"I don't have the money to tell me. Zhong Yuan took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his bag, "Now that your son is out, it's not bad for money." Take it and make some new furniture. ”
After having a storage bag, he no longer had to worry about the inconvenience of carrying a large amount of cash, he put all the cash he got from Yunnan Province into it, and took tens of thousands of yuan out, which was just a trivial matter.
But in this impoverished mountain village, he couldn't have come up with more money. He is not always at home, and if his wealth is exposed, he can't help but be remembered by anyone.
As soon as the tens of thousands of yuan were taken out, his parents were a little frightened: "Son, you brought back so much money last time you went home, why do you have so much now? You didn't do anything bad, did you?"
They heard Zhong Yuan say that his salary had risen, and he had seven or eight thousand a month. But with a salary of seven or eight thousand, you can't save so much money in these months, right?
Their first reaction was whether Zhong Yuan had done something bad to get it.
Zhong Yuan thought that this money was obtained by killing so many people in Yunnan Province, and it could really be regarded as getting it by doing bad things, but of course he would not admit it, and said:
"This is the year-end bonus issued by the company. This year, the company has developed well and gave me a year-end bonus of 50,000 yuan. So you can use the money to buy furniture. ”
After thinking about it, with the frugal nature of his parents, he probably only took out the small head to buy furniture, and the big head would be saved for his future daughter-in-law, so he added:
"My subject's house is in good condition, and if he comes over and sees these tattered things in the house, he may not be happy. So, Dad, Mom, let's not save that money, okay?"
"Okay, it's up to you. ”
His mother happily took the money and put it in the cupboard.
The son has the ability, that is the greatest pride of being a parent.
If you really bring back a daughter-in-law from the city, you will be even more proud, and you don't have to look up in the village.
The thirty-year-old son is not yet married, and the old couple have been ridiculed by the villagers.
Even if a new house was built this year, it didn't curb the ridicule, and even made the ridicule more intense:
"If you have the money, you don't marry a daughter-in-law and build a house, it's really sick. ”
"What's so great about having a new house? Does he have a daughter-in-law?"
"My son is a year younger than his son, and we have a pair of children. Their home is so good that they can't even find a partner. ”
"Looking for a partner? Just like their Zhong Yuan, you can only find a partner in chess. ”
A single dog is just a dog, not even a human being, so naturally there is no human right at all.
Even the parents with the single dog have become low-class villagers and can't hold their heads up in front of everyone.
This is also the reason why Zhong Yuan did not bring the object home, and his parents were so disappointed.
Originally, he wanted to fight a battle during the Chinese New Year, and let Zhong Yuan take the objects in the city to wander around the village to fight back against those ridicules, but now it seems that there is no hope, and he can only use the purchase of a large number of new furniture to prove that his son is better than theirs.
There is preserved fish and bacon in the yard, which are all New Year's goods, I don't know if it is for Zhong Yuan or for his invisible object. After Zhong Yuan went home, he had a greasy meal.
slept all night, and the next day Zhong Yuan accompanied his parents to the county seat to buy privately.
Bed, sofa, wardrobe, table and chairs, TV, refrigerator, washing machine...... What you don't have at home should be added, and what you have at home should be replaced.
It's just that Zhong Yuan was a little hesitant when he bought the TV, and asked his parents: "I bought this, is there a signal?"
I bought a mobile phone for my parents but couldn't use it, but it caused a certain shadow on him.
"The signal is there, and if you install the antenna, you can receive more than a dozen units. ”
His mother replied.
The antenna his mother said is not a pot bottom antenna, but a general outdoor antenna, which can collect more than a dozen local stations is good, but the effect is very bad.
Zhong Yuan thought about it and sold another pot bottom antenna.
By the way, he bought thousands of dollars of clothes for each of his parents.
When he was in the county seat, his mobile phone had a signal, and he posted a circle of friends: A few months ago, he promised his parents to bring a target home for the New Year, and they spread the news to the whole village, but now that I am back alone, what can I do so that they do not lose face in front of the people in the village?
It was also accompanied by a picture of a single dog.
Not long after it was posted, it received a lot of comments:
Xiao Wu: Find Mr. Gong!
Manager Liu: Find Mr. Gong!
Minister Zhou: Looking for Mr. Gong!
Former colleague A, B, C, D, ABCD: looking for Mr. Gong!
The queue is very neat, and it is the same as pasting and copying, there is only one difference, that is, Gong Shengnan's comment: Where is your home, do you want me to go over and support you?
This made Zhong Yuan feel a little warm.
However, he knew that Gong Shengnan was pregnant now and was very closely protected by the Gong family, so he would not really come over.
This trip to the county seat was a rare shopping experience for Zhong Yuan's parents, and they spent 30,000 or 40,000 yuan in one morning, which made them enjoyable and painful.
I called a truck and brought it all home. In the last dozen miles of mountain roads, the car was bumpy and bumpy, and Zhong Yuan doubted whether he would break all the things in the car.
Thankfully, that terrible thing hasn't happened yet.
A large cart of furniture was pulled to the door of Zhong Yuan's house, and the whole village shook when it was unloaded.
It's okay to build a building, and some wealthy families in the village can't grit their teeth.
But the Zhong family has just built a building, and the people in the village are still thinking about how much money they owe, and now they have bought a car of furniture that looks extremely luxurious to them, how rich is that?
Could it be that the kid of the Zhong family is really out of luck?
