Chapter 1994 Dealing with a Huge Sum of Money 2
"I don't want it either. Give it to Auntie." Lu Tianzhi agreed, "There will be subsidies for schooling, and I will get a salary from work in the future. I can support myself."
Anyway, if he feeds the whole family, there is no point in having such a large sum of money!
As he grew older and gained more experience, Lu Tianzhi increasingly understood what a great act of kindness his uncle and aunt had done in unconditionally raising his brothers and cousins in Guancheng and cultivating them into talents.
Not to mention that brothers Lu Tianjun and Lu Tianzhi were unwilling to take it, even brothers Guan Cheng and Guan Yu shook their heads like rattles. Guan Yu said loudly: "Grandpa, please don't scorn us. We are so old, how can we ask for your money? If it gets out, not only will people laugh at us, but it will also cause trouble. Just like brother Tianjun said, if you don't keep it for yourself, give it to Aunt."
Guan Yu learned the word "Maitai" from an educated youth from the Northeast who worked in Wanglou Brigade. He pronounced it very authentically.
Feng Qingxue said, "Why are you keeping them all? I know that you are all adults, and those of you have started families and careers, but your salary is only enough to get by, and your monthly savings are limited. If you want to buy something big, you have to save for several years. In the past, it was three turns and one ring, but now it's a refrigerator, a color TV, and a washing machine."
When she got to this point, her throat suddenly felt itchy. She turned her head and coughed twice, then turned back and continued, "Tianjun, you and Ah Cheng both have children. If not for your own sake, think about the children too. Don't treat them badly in life. Although we don't like to compare with others, we should have what we should have if we are well-off. Don't raise children who are curious about other people's things and want to go and watch the fun. If they meet a good family, it's okay, but if they meet a family with a weird temperament, they might dislike the children."
"Listen to your aunt. Don't let your children become narrow-minded and stingy just because you don't have money to buy things. I've seen a lot of this. In our family, boys and girls are the same. We don't raise sons in poverty and daughters in wealth. Everything has a limit. Too much is as bad as too little. More importantly, I have to remind you that raising a child in wealth is not just about financial wealth, but also about cultural spirit and education."
Lu Jiang finally made the decision and said, "Tianjun, you have been obedient since childhood, and you can't disobey now."
Lu Tianjun exchanged glances with his younger brother and Guan Cheng brothers for a moment, and could only nod and agree to accept the 10,000 yuan each given to them by the old man. It would be bad to be accused of disobedience.
Lu Tianzhi scratched the back of his head. "My brother is raising a child, and so is Acheng. It's only a matter of time before Ayu and Zhou Zhou get married. The family expenses will not be small, but what do I need that ten thousand yuan for? I really can't spend it. Otherwise, aunt, can you give me some advice on how to spend this money more cost-effectively? I think it's not cost-effective to put it in the bank."
Feng Qingxue smiled and said casually, "The country has begun to attach importance to knowledge and culture. As the country's economy develops better and better, spiritual needs are very important. Anyway, you all have good vision. Buying some antiques and hoarding them is better than anything else. Gold in troubled times and antiques in prosperous times, I don't need to repeat it again and again. Or wait until the country allows the sale of houses, then buy a house. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are eternal topics. Among them, housing is real estate and has great investment prospects."
"Will houses be allowed to be bought and sold freely in the future?" Guan Yu's eyes lit up. His brother had a house allocated by his unit, and Lu Tianjun had a house allocated by the army, but he and Lu Tianzhi didn't have any. How would they spend their four years in college? They couldn't just keep renting a house with their grandmother.
