Chapter 1247 Unbelievable
Xiao Huzi smiled bitterly: "Then I...I can just take the train."

"It's harder to buy train tickets." Cheng Tianyuan said quietly: "I want you to stay on the train for two days and two nights. Do you think you can bear it?"

This kid has never suffered, and he kept yelling even if he was asked to fly for an hour or two, let alone a drive of dozens of hours.

The little tiger murmured, with a depressed look on his face.

Cheng Tianyuan showed no mercy and said solemnly: "Hand over your bank card and your father's ID card."

Seeing that he was serious about it, Xiao Huzi did not dare to resist, so he reluctantly took out his wallet from the inner pocket of his coat, took out three bank cards and handed them to Cheng Tianyuan.

Cheng Tianyuan frowned and took it, asking: "Are there any more?"

"...No more." Xiao Huzi whispered.

Cheng Tianyuan didn't believe it at all and said: "ID card."

Xiao Huzi had no choice but to take out his father's ID card.

Cheng Tianyuan glanced at it and put it all into his inner pocket.

"Go wash up and get dressed. My car is parked downstairs."

Xiao Huzi curled his lips, knowing that Cheng Tianyuan had always been serious and was not someone he could act coquettishly, so he could only endure it and wash up for the time being.

Half an hour later, Cheng Tianyuan took him downstairs to check out.

The sun was rising high in the sky outside. Cheng Tianyuan glanced at it and said, "It's almost noon, let's go have lunch."

Xiao Huzi couldn't help but whisper: "I haven't had breakfast yet!"

"Do you think you still need breakfast?" Cheng Tianyuan mocked: "You can't even make it in time for lunch!"

Little Huzi: "..."

After getting in the car, Cheng Tianyuan drove straight to Oriental Garden.

On the way, he received a call from Cheng Huanran.

——Dad, now that you have found Xiao Huzi, let’s go find a program ourselves.Grandpa and Uncle Zhilan went out to meet old friends. Grandma ate the rest of the morning meal and let us all eat outside.

Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask: "What do you want to eat?"

——My younger brothers and sisters want to go to our school to play, and we are all on the bus now.There is a lot of food next to the school and the prices are cheap.I will take them to eat whatever they want for a while.

Cheng Tianyuanhu asked: "Isn't it already on vacation? Is there anyone else at the school?"

——There are so many people!Many seniors and graduate students have not returned. Those who are engaged in scientific research projects and sometimes the laboratory cannot do without people for several years, and there is no way to take a vacation.The faculty and staff in the school, those who work overnight during the winter vacation, these people also need to eat and drink every day.Except for the Chinese New Year, the shops outside the school are almost the same as usual at other times.The school library is also open. In the afternoon, I took my younger brothers and sisters to read books and surf the Internet.

Cheng Tianyuan smiled: "Okay, then you guys can go play."

After saying that, he hung up the call and put the phone down.The little tiger on the side glanced at him angrily, with a depressed look on his face.

"Uncle Ayuan, why are you so partial? Your own children can play, but I can't! It's so unfair!"

Cheng Tianyuan twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "They are going to the library of the Medical University for a few afternoons to read and surf the Internet. Do you want to read a book? Huh?"

Forehead? !

Little Huzi gets dizzy when he hears "book", let alone reading.

Cheng Tianyuan said while driving: "You are a student now, and a student's main task is to study. Do you know? Your mother is well-known in the southern writer's circle, and she is also a member of the Chinese Writers Association."

"I know!" Xiao Huzi muttered: "There is a group photo hanging in her study!"

Cheng Tianyuan smiled and said: "Study hard, like your parents!"

"Ha!" Xiao Huzi sneered: "My mother's style is not suitable for me! My father didn't study at all when he was young. I just want to imitate my father! Although my father didn't study much, he earned as much money as my mother. Millions of times better than a scholar! My mother writes and writes, publishing a book every two or three years, and getting a few thousand royalties each time. If we relied on her, we would have starved to death. Uncle, I don’t think there is anything good about reading and studying. ! Isn’t it just for money to study and find a job? I might as well go into business and make enough!"

Cheng Tianyuan calmly walked around the steering wheel and asked, "Have you ever made money? Do you know that making money requires hard work?"

Xiao Huzi rolled his eyes, disapproving.

Cheng Tianyuan said softly: "Let's not talk about big things. Since we are talking about your dad, let's talk about your dad directly. Your dad lost his father when he was a child. It was your grandma who worked hard to raise him up. I heard the aunt say However, he didn’t like to study when he was a child, but his aunt refused and forced him to go to school. In order to earn tuition, your grandma got up and worked at around four o’clock every day, and took a break on the first day of the first lunar month throughout the year. Your dad feels bad My mother worked hard and finally studied hard and successfully completed her studies. At that time, few people could afford to study, and there were also fewer people studying. The best treatment was to work in a factory or unit and have a stable income. Your grandma asked for a lot With help, your dad finally found a position in the traffic brigade, with a salary of 20 yuan a month."

"20 yuan?!" Xiao Huzi couldn't hold back his laughter.

Cheng Tianyuan continued: "With this salary and your dad helping out at home morning and night, the family finally got through the most difficult time. Who knew that a few years later, my aunt became seriously ill and almost died. The doctor said You can only go to the provincial capital for surgery, but the cost is hundreds of dollars. In order to treat your old mother, your father sold his brand-new bicycle and half of the land in the family, so he finally raised enough money to perform the surgery on my mother."

"A few hundred yuan?" Xiao Huzihu asked: "You have to sell bicycles and land for a few hundred yuan? How did you know?"

"Of course I know." Cheng Tianyuan replied: "My wife bought them all. It's hard to make money, and it's even harder to make so much money all at once. In order to save my old mother, I had to sell real estate and the most expensive bicycle in the family. At that time, your father took over Over the money, tears flashed in my eyes. Now you have to spend more than 1000 a night to sleep in a luxury suite, but do you know? Your father was so helpless that he cried bitterly for a few hundred yuan."

Xiao Huzi fell silent, his eyes darkened.

Cheng Tianyuan continued: "Later we opened a small shopping mall, and your dad's life was getting better day by day. My wife wholesaled clothes from the imperial capital and sold them in the county. Your dad earned a dime and finally saved a lot of money. Who knew He met a bad woman who cheated her into a marriage and took away all of your father's money and house. Your father traveled for more than a month looking for her, and finally fell ill in bed. Your grandma was sad and worried, and she suddenly fell ill. My wife and I went to the hospital with the money, and after a few days we finally rescued him. When you make money, you earn a few cents. How much can you save in a few years? But when you lose it, you lose it in an instant! The relationship is gone, the money is gone, and the people are almost gone.”

Xiao Huzi's eyes dodge a few times and he whispered: "We don't know any of this..."

Cheng Tianyuan sighed softly, "Maybe your dad didn't want to let you know. Later, your dad cooperated with Lingling to open a wholesale clothing store in the provincial capital, and your dad stayed there for several years. Carrying one or two hundred kilograms of cargo boxes , dealing with all kinds of difficult customers, picking up and taking off a piece of clothing, and occasionally he was given less than a dime. He got up at around four o'clock every morning and closed the store in the evening. For a long time, he watched alone. Shop, no one else helped. After several years, he finally made some financial foundation. "

Xiao Huzi frowned and seemed a little embarrassed.

"It turns out that it was not easy for dad to make money before..."

Cheng Tianyuan chuckled: "At that time, the market economy had just begun, and there were not many opportunities to make money. Making money was much harder than it is now. Have you ever made money? It was probably ten or twenty times harder than it is now."

Xiao Huzi was dubious and fell silent again.
