Chapter 25 Finding a Backer



"good."

Tian Chengcheng nodded readily.

Taking advantage of Luo Hongyan's happiness, he asked again: "Auntie, can you sell us the cloth from your factory? People in our area are very poor and can't afford expensive cloth."

"You want to buy cloth and then sell it?" Luo Hongyan was a little surprised.

I didn’t expect that such a young girl would think of reselling it to make money.

"Well, auntie, I am an orphan. I used to live with my third aunt. But now people are starving to death in the village. My third aunt doesn't want me anymore and kicked me out. My uncle and grandmother took me in. I want to save money for my uncle to go to college, for my grandmother's medical treatment, and for everyone in the village to have enough food to eat." Tian Chengcheng said seriously.

Looking at her bright big eyes, Luo Hongyan's heart softened.

I didn't expect that such a lovable child could be so pitiful.

She immediately decided to help.

"Okay, if you want it, Auntie will help you and will definitely give you the lowest price."

"Thank you, pretty auntie."

Tian Chengcheng jumped up and down happily.

Luo Hongyan also felt soft in her heart.

I weighed the bracelet and it was 78 grams, for a total of 5,460 yuan.

"Five thousand four hundred and sixty yuan. Come with me to the bank to withdraw the money. I don't have that much on me." Luo Hongyan said.

"Okay." Tian Chengcheng nodded.

The three of them followed Luo Hongyan to the bank to withdraw money. On the way, Tian Chengcheng asked many questions out of curiosity.

I learned that Luo Hongyan is an accountant in a weaving factory, her husband is the president of a bank, her daughter graduated from university and married in the provincial capital, her son returned to the city to teach after graduating from university, and her daughter-in-law is a broadcaster who works in a radio station. She is both beautiful and capable.

When Luo Hongyan talked about her family, her words were full of pride.

Tian Chengcheng opened her big eyes with curiosity and envy, which made Luo Hongyan enjoy it even more.

"Leave the fabric to me. After I get the money, if you have time, I'll take you to the warehouse. If you don't have time, then next time, just go to the security room at the factory gate and ask for Luo Hongyan." Luo Hongyan smiled happily. The more she looked at Tian Chengcheng, the more she liked her. Finally, she sighed and said, "Alas, I just don't have this blessing. Otherwise, it would be great if you could be my daughter. But we are destined to be together. How about you be my goddaughter?"

"Auntie, I'll go home and ask grandma." Tian Chengcheng said obediently.

The more Luo Hongyan looked at it, the more she liked it. "Okay, when you go back, ask your grandma. If it's suitable, I will be your godmother in the future."

Tian Hengyuan and Fu Xinhan followed behind silently, stunned by Tian Chengcheng's coaxing methods.

Tian Hengyuan, in particular, was deeply shocked.

He was the one who picked up Fubao and brought her home. Although she was raised at his third brother's house for those years, he would visit her from time to time and secretly give her some snacks.

At that time, Fubao would just work silently, and even if you gave her food, she wouldn't say a word.

Not to mention saying nice things.

Fu Xinhan was fine. He was scolded the first time he met Tian Chengcheng, and he still remembers it vividly.

No matter how outrageous Tian Chengcheng's actions were, he didn't find it strange.

Luo Hongyan was so happy that she was coaxed by Tian Chengcheng that she went to the bank to withdraw money and gave it to Tian Hengyuan without missing a penny.

"Brother, it's not safe to keep so much money in your hands. How about opening a passbook and putting the money in it? If you don't use it, you can still get more than 200 yuan in interest a year, which is also a considerable amount."

"More than two hundred interest a year?" Tian Hengyuan was shocked.

"Yes, the current interest rate is 4.6. If you deposit 10,000 yuan in the bank, you will get 460 yuan a year, and 5,000 yuan will be 230 yuan." Luo Hongyan said.

It was the first time that Tian Hengyuan heard of such a thing. He was very shocked and looked at Tian Chengcheng.

"Fubao, what do you think?"

"That's good, Auntie. Let's open a passbook and deposit 5,000 yuan first. Keep the change and go to the factory with Auntie later." Tian Chengcheng said.

The interest earned by keeping money in a passbook is very low, but it is safe.

With the help of Luo Hongyan, Tian Hengyuan opened an account and deposited 5,000 yuan into it, using Tian Chengcheng's birthday as the password.

It was almost noon when they finished their work. Tian Chengcheng handed the pheasants in the bamboo basket to Luo Hongyan. "Auntie, this is the pheasant we caught. You can take it back and eat it. Thank you for helping us so much. Otherwise, we would have been cheated by Boss Li. He is very fierce. If you hadn't happened to be there, he would have stopped us from leaving. It's so scary."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Auntie is here. Boss Li just serves the dishes based on the individual. I'll talk to him later." Luo Hongyan felt so distressed when she saw Tian Chengcheng was scared.

"Thank you, Auntie. With you taking care of us, I won't be afraid anymore."

"Oh, good boy, you're so lovable." Luo Hongyan took the pheasant and said, "Let's go to Auntie's house for dinner. Auntie will make you chicken stewed with mushrooms."

Luo Hongyan glanced at the three people's clothes and said, "Auntie's house has some old clothes that are too small for my son and daughter. I found them and gave them to you to wear. Don't be disgusted."

"Auntie, is that true?"

After receiving Luo Hongyan's affirmation, Tian Chengcheng jumped for joy, "Great, I have new clothes to wear."

Seeing this, Luo Hongyan felt more and more distressed for her.

The three of them followed Luo Hongyan to her home. She lived in the bank's staff housing complex, which was full of four-story buildings with pebbled exteriors.

This old-style family building is like an antique in Tian Chengcheng's eyes, but in Fu Xinhan's eyes, it is shocking and enviable.

Only then did he realize that there was such a thing as a building.

Thinking of the thatched huts he lived in, which were leaking everywhere, he secretly vowed to work harder and harder so that he could live in a house like this in the future.

Luo Hongyan's husband is the president of a bank, so her family was allocated the first floor, which has a small courtyard with a flower bed planted with roses.

There is a south room, and a shed made of asbestos tiles on the west side, which stores firewood, coal, and some miscellaneous items.

"Come in and sit down." Luo Hongyan opened the door.

The room has three bedrooms and two living rooms, covered with red prismatic tiles, and the furniture is all wooden. There is also a set of sofas covered with white hollow sofa cushions. The room is clean and tidy.

"Auntie, let's sit in the yard." Tian Chengcheng looked at the soil under the feet of the three people and took the initiative to say.

From the tidiness of the house, it can be seen that Luo Hongyan is a clean person.

"It's okay, just sweep the floor. Auntie cleans every day." Luo Hongyan took Tian Chengcheng's hand and walked into the house.

The child's understanding made her love him even more.

Tian Hengyuan and Fu Xinhan then followed him in. They each found a bench and sat down, stiffly standing still.

Seeing that the three people were sitting so uncomfortably, Luo Hongyan went to the inner room to look around, and soon came out carrying two bundles.

"Fubao, Xiaotian, these are old clothes. I also have a few sets of my old clothes. Take them back and see if grandma can wear them. If not, give them away. The clothes are not damaged, they just can't be worn anymore. I don't mean any other things, please don't be disgusted."
