Wang Xi responded well.
Su Lujun went to pick vegetables, while Wang Xi took out a red envelope and gave it to Chen Aihong, saying, "Aunt, this is a little gift from me to Brother Dong."
It’s said to be a token of my appreciation, but the red envelope is very full. I don’t know the exact amount, but it’s definitely not too little!
Of course Chen Aihong would not accept it, and said, "Take it back quickly. How can you afford to pay? Changdong has his retirement pay, and he can also go there to receive 30 yuan a month for living expenses, which is enough to cover his expenses."
"Aunt, this is a little gift from me to Brother Dong. It was Brother Dong who found the opportunity for me to work in the coal yard!" Wang Xi said seriously.
Chen Aihong also knew about this. "This is the brotherhood between you two, but you haven't married yet. Now that your house has been repaired, your mother is old and is looking forward to you getting married and having children soon. You keep this money for yourself! And we didn't just confiscate yours. We also confiscated the money from Changdong's uncle's family, and his aunt and uncle!"
Wang Xi couldn't give it to her in person, but before leaving, he threw the red envelope down and ran away, "Auntie, please put it away!"
Having said that, he ran away without a trace.
When Su Lujun came out and saw this scene, she was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Chen Aihong was the same. She picked up the red envelope and took a look at it. She was slightly stunned for a moment, "This boy is really willing to spend money!"
Just looking at the red envelopes, you know there will be a lot of them. Five stacks in total, one hundred yuan each, five hundred yuan in total!
This is probably the kid's savings over the years.
Chen Aihong turned to look at her daughter-in-law and hesitated, because it was really difficult to accept this money from Wang Xi.
Su Lujun shook her head and said, "Mom, please send it back to him. We can't take it."
Chen Aihong breathed a sigh of relief and gave her daughter-in-law an admiring look, "Okay, Mom will take it back for him."
She went to Old Wang's house to give the money and stuffed the red envelope into Wang Xi's pocket. Wang Xi looked distressed and said, "Aunt, why did you take it back again? I went there specially to get it out today."
"If I say no, it means no. You keep it for yourself to marry a wife." Chen Aihong said.
She chatted with the Queen Mother for a while and then turned back.
"Mom, can you help me take it to my aunt?" Wang Xi looked at his mother.
The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "I know Aihong's temper. She won't accept it. You can keep it for yourself. Just come back to visit Changdong more often in the future."
Wang Xi was very sad. "Brother Dong is such a good person, how could he become like this?"
The Queen Mother sighed. She felt very sorry and had gone to see the doctor, but there was nothing she could do about it.
"But Changdong married a good wife. Even though he is like this, his wife refuses to leave!" Queen Mother praised again, looking at her son and said, "When you marry a wife in the future, you must marry someone like this!"
Wang Xi was in no mood at all, "Let's talk about it later!"
"We don't owe anyone any money now, and the house has been built. You are already an adult, so you can't delay any longer!" said the Queen Mother.
"Anyway, I don't want to talk about it now!"
“…”
When Su Lujun saw her mother-in-law coming back, she smiled and said, "Mom, Wang Xi and Changdong have such a good relationship?"
"Okay." Chen Aihong said, "When Wang Xi was a kid, he always followed Changdong. Whenever he was bullied, Changdong would protect him."
Wang Xi was raised by his widowed mother. In order to pay for his father's medical treatment in his early years, all the houses in the family were sold, leaving only the old house where they live now.
Now the old house has been repaired and looks good, but in the past a strong wind could blow the house down!
However, his father was not saved in the end, but the money was all spent.
It is not easy for a widow to raise a child. What’s more, Wang Xi was thin and small when he was a child. Wasn’t he the target of bullying by other children?
But Zhou Changdong had a strong fist and he couldn't stand others bullying the weak, so later Wang Xi followed Zhou Changdong.
If Zhou Changdong points east, he will never go west. He is a little brother who particularly admires his big brother!
