Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 672: Personal enrichment from the old father
coming!coming!What he feared most happened!
"I...I..." Wang Liansheng opened his mouth for a long time but couldn't hold back a reason.

"Honestly, where did this money come from?"

Liang Wan was a little puzzled when she thought of the money he spent to buy cigarettes. This man would hand in his monthly salary and allowance on time, and then collect food expenses from himself.

Liang Wan had previously suspected that this man would withhold part of it, but then she thought about it. Every month's salary and allowances would be recorded. If she wanted to check, she would definitely be able to find out. Even if she thought about it, he wouldn't dare to do anything in this regard.

If it wasn't intercepted from here, where did it come from?

Thinking of this, Liang Wan got even more headache.

You must know that in order to prevent him from taking money from the food fee to buy cigarettes, Liang Wan almost calculated his expenses down to the minute, and made sure that the money and tickets were just enough.

She personally purchased the daily necessities needed for daily life, such as firewood, rice, oil and salt, and even the things needed for gifts. She did all this because she was afraid that he would enrich himself and save money. The next part of the money will be used to buy cigarettes.

It can be said that Liang Wan has tried her best to prevent Wang Liansheng from using money to buy cigarettes.

But she never thought that with her tight defense, this man could actually save money to buy cigarettes.

Thinking of this, Liang Wan looked at Wang Liansheng with an increasingly fierce gaze.

I secretly thought to myself that it seemed that the standard I set for him was too high, otherwise it would be impossible to save money to buy cigarettes.

How about lowering some standards?

Thinking like this, Liang Wan began to look Wang Liansheng up and down, wondering whether this method was feasible.

Wang Liansheng, who was standing aside, was already uneasy enough, but now he was completely frightened by seeing him like this.

At this time, Wang Liansheng only felt that his lips were dry and he couldn't help but licked his chapped lips, waiting uneasily for his wife's sentencing.

As for where the money came from?You really can't say that. If you say it, it will be over.

And Liang Wan saw that he made it clear that he was not prepared to say anything, and the anger that she had finally suppressed came up again.

Just when she rolled up her sleeves and prepared to "have a chat" with him, the eldest son of the Wang family barged in directly.

Looking at the two people in the room, he said with some surprise: "Mom and dad, didn't you go see Uncle Zhao today? When did you come back?"

"Just came back." Facing her eldest son's question, Liang Wan forced a smile. She didn't want her eldest son to see the dispute between the couple.

The eldest son of the Wang family glanced at the expressions of the couple and asked with some worry: "How is Uncle Zhao's health now?"

Uncle Zhao is his father's old friend, and the relationship between the two families has always been very close. The Zhao couple are usually very good to him and his younger brother.

Although there is an age difference between him and the children of the Zhao family, this does not hinder their relationship.

Ever since he heard the news that Uncle Zhao was injured and hospitalized, he had been worried, but because he had been taking care of his grandma and the others during this period, he really couldn't spare the time to visit Zhao Wenzhuo.

Grandma and grandpa are getting old, and several uncles are not around, so the old man has no one to take care of him for a while.

Especially when grandma accidentally fell down and broke her leg some time ago, she couldn't live without people around her.

My parents are busy with things on weekdays, so they can't abandon everything they are doing and stay with the old man all the time.

But both parties are not the kind of people who are unwilling to take care of the elderly.

There is no other way, the two of them can only take turns taking care of the old man. You will take care of him during the day, and I will take care of him at night.

Just going back and forth like this, after a few days of taking care of her, grandma and grandpa couldn't stand it anymore.

I feel sorry for my daughter and son-in-law, who are going back and forth, so I insist on saying that I can take care of myself, and refuse to let them take care of me like this anymore.

But this is not something the two old people can do whatever they want. After all, they are older. If grandma had not broken her leg, the old couple could still support each other and live a good life.

But if grandma breaks her leg, won’t grandpa be able to take care of her?
Laundry, cooking, etc. were all okay, my grandpa could barely do it by himself, but when it came to tasks like moving patients, he couldn't do it.

The two old people cannot do without their children's care, and they don't want their children to be so tired.

Just like that, the two parties fell into a dilemma.

Seeing this, the eldest son of the Wang family stepped forward and thought about moving there himself.

Firstly, it is easy to take care of the two elderly people. Secondly, my grandma's place is not too far from the school, and it does not delay my schooling during the day.

Just like that, the eldest son of the Wang family never took time to visit Zhao Wenzhuo.

But when I went home to get a change of clothes last Saturday, I overheard my parents saying that they would visit a patient today, and I remembered it in my heart.

I was still thinking about whether I should come back so I could ask if everything was okay.

Unexpectedly, before he even spoke to the two old men, the two old men took the initiative to let him go home.

As soon as I got home, I heard from my second brother that my parents had returned from visiting the patient. Why don't you come over and ask about it now?

As for whether it was because I heard my second brother say that my mother looked ugly when she came back, as if she was angry with her father, and she was afraid that her father would be scolded so badly that she would run over to save him, only God knows.

When her son asked about Zhao Wenzhuo's injury, the smile on Liang Wan's face finally became more real: "It's nothing serious. Just rest for a while."

As he spoke, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked with some confusion: "Why are you back today when you are free?"

"Grandma feels that my legs are almost healed. She told me when I went to school in the morning that I can just go home at noon."

Although the two schools are not far from the school, they are not in the same direction, so the distance between them is still quite far.

This results in that I can only go to one place during my lunch break.

"Really!" After hearing that her mother's legs were almost good, Liang Wan didn't care about being angry with the man and hurriedly chased her son to verify whether it was true.

"That can still be a holiday. When I come back, grandma can already walk in the alley with a cane."

"That's good, that's good!"

Wang Liansheng, who was standing aside, saw that the two women were chatting enthusiastically. He probably couldn't think of him for a while, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at his father's appearance, the eldest son of the Wang family couldn't help but feel a little funny. It seemed that his father had made a big mistake this time.

But it was okay that he didn't smile. His smile drew Liang Wan's attention to Wang Liansheng's head.

His face suddenly became less pretty.

Thinking that his rescue operation was about to fail, the eldest son of the Wang family rolled his eyes and quickly found another topic.

"Mom, do we still have food at home? I'm a little hungry.

Seeing that his eldest son had attracted his wife's attention away again, Wang Liansheng breathed a sigh of relief and then gave his son a thumbs up.This son was really well-earned and had saved his old father from fire and water many times.

Once she heard that her eldest son was hungry, Liang Wan had no intention of arguing with Wang Liansheng.

"I'm hungry. Didn't you have lunch?" That shouldn't be the case. There is a cafeteria in my son's school, and I usually go home after eating in the cafeteria.

Even when she was taking care of the elderly at her parents' house, she would have lunch in the cafeteria.

"Eat, I bought two steamed buns in the canteen." The eldest son of the Wang family said, feeling a little embarrassed. The food he had eaten for lunch was almost digested after such a trip.

"Wotou!" Liang Wan frowned when she heard that her son only ate two wotou at noon.

"Why did you only buy two steamed buns? Isn't the living allowance I gave you enough?"

Wang Liansheng, who was secretly happy because he had escaped another disaster, suddenly froze after hearing these words.

He winked desperately to his eldest son, telling him not to continue the topic.

But this time he was not as lucky as before, and the eldest son of the Wang family thought that his father was encouraging him to fight for the treatment.

Then he showed a pitiful look: "Enough is enough, but I have to plan carefully. I was a little greedy two days ago, so I ordered a meat dish, so today... I can only eat dry steamed buns."

Speaking of this, the eldest son of the Wang family is still a little embarrassed. He usually doesn't like the food in the school cafeteria.

For him, those meals were just enough to barely fill his stomach.

But recently, my grandfather, who has never cooked much in his life, is cooking at home. Not to mention the food is delicious, it would be good if it is cooked well.

After eating the food cooked by his grandfather for a while, the eldest son of the Wang family suddenly felt that the school cafeteria, which he usually didn't like, tasted pretty good.

It happened over and over again, and when I reacted, I realized that my food expenses for this week were at the bottom.

He couldn't ask the old man for money, so he had no choice but to wait until he got home.

It had to be said that he was relieved to be able to go home today. Finally, he no longer had to chew on cornstarch every day.

Hearing his explanation, Liang Wan frowned even more. It wasn't that she couldn't afford the money, but she didn't want her child to develop a habit of spending too much money.

Thinking of this, Liang Wan looked at her son and said, "Forget it this time, you have to be more frugal in the future."

"I know, mother, I will definitely save some money in the future." At this point, the eldest son of the Wang family suddenly thought of the poor students in his class and their weekly living expenses, gritted his teeth and said: "Mom, from now on, you only need to give me eighty cents a week for living expenses."

He calculated in his mind that he would spend 5 cents to buy two steamed buns for each meal, and then spend [-] cents to buy a portion of stir-fried vegetables and soup, which would make him almost [-]% full.

As for breakfast and dinner, we still eat them at home as before.

"Eight cents, eight cents is enough for what?" Liang Wan's first reaction was shock when she heard that her eldest son only had eight cents a week.

Children as old as the eldest son are just old enough to eat. If they were really allowed to eat freely, they would be able to stuff everything into their bellies even if it cost them eight cents a week, let alone eight cents a week.

Thinking of this, Liang Wan began to reflect on whether what she just said was too much and made her son think too much.

She wanted her son to be frugal, but she didn't want him to be so frugal. Their family was not that poor.

Thinking of this, Liang Wan quickly changed her attitude, looked at her son with a gentle face and said, "Mom, that's not what you meant."

But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted: "I know mom, you are doing this for my own good, and you are afraid that I will develop the habit of spending money lavishly. I understand.

Mom, don't think too much, I just want to exercise myself, and I definitely don't mean to be sulky with you.

Besides, [-] cents is a lot. There are several students in our class whose living expenses are less than [-] cents per week. They are also human beings. Why can’t I live with them if they can? "

The eldest son of the Wang family became excited again when he said this, and naturally ignored Wang Liansheng's gesture.

As she spoke, she clenched her fists to encourage herself: "Mom, I just thought about it. The food expenses of one dollar and two per week were indeed a bit more in the past. I must learn to be frugal in the future."

Liang Wan was happy that her son was sensible, but at the same time she was worried that her son would be able to eat enough with the little food money.

At this moment, the word "one dollar and two" suddenly flashed through her mind.

Before she even understood what it meant, she subconsciously asked: "One dollar and two, what one dollar and two?"

"What else can I get for one dollar and two? Of course it is the living allowance you give me every week." The enthusiastic eldest son of the Wang family replied casually. He did not notice that after he said "one dollar and two", his father's frustrated face.

"One dollar and two, you said I would give you one dollar and two for food every week." Liang Wan, who finally understood the meaning of her son's words, pointed to her nose and asked in disbelief.

After hearing this, the eldest son of the Wang family finally noticed something was wrong.

He first looked at the shock on his mother's face, and then turned to look at Wang Liansheng.

You can clearly see the defeat on his face. What else don't you understand now?

He looked at his father in disbelief, his eyes filled with accusations of "Dad, how could you do this?"

And when Wang Liansheng said his son's words "One dollar and two", he felt that he was finished, completely finished!

Faced with his son's accusation, he showed no reaction at all.

He didn't respond, but Liang Wan felt like she was going to explode.

"Wang Liansheng, this is how you pay for your son's food."

"I...amn't I afraid that my son will spend too much money? Besides, it won't make him hungry." Wang Liansheng will never admit that he is jealous. A kid actually has 10 yuan a month for living expenses. He has a monthly living expenses of [-] yuan. But it's only six yuan, which is a whole four yuan less than this kid.

Thinking of this, Wang Liansheng suddenly felt aggrieved and muttered: "Why does a kid like him have more monthly living expenses than me?"

"What are you talking about? Louder."

"I said you were unfair. Why did you only give me six yuan but give him ten yuan?"

As soon as these words came out, Liang Wan was stunned.

She looked at Wang Liansheng in disbelief. Is it because of this?

Now that the matter has come to this point, there is no point in hiding it anymore. Faced with her inquiry, Wang Liansheng nodded very bachelorly, saying that she was right.

Liang Wan was about to laugh out loud now, she pointed her finger at Wang Liansheng: "Wang Liansheng, Wang Liansheng, what do you want me to say about you?

You, a big man, are actually getting into trouble over such a trivial matter, you... "
