Jianshu looked at him speechlessly. This man really knew how to find opportunities to win her favor.
However, it is also his ability to have the opportunity to win favor. After all, it is not something that most people can do to hand over savings as soon as they get together.
Zhao Mingze looked at Gu Mingjing's smiling face and always felt that he was being outdone.
Especially when he saw Meng Ying's satisfied expression, the look in his eyes when he looked at Gu Mingjing became more dangerous.
Boy, just show off, but are you overdoing it?
What should we seniors do?
In a gloomy tone, he said, "You are really proactive. Is this all your family wealth? You don't have any money at all?" Humph! I don't believe you don't have any hidden money.
Jianshu forgot the past after hearing this.
Gu Mingjing was not at all panicked. He smiled and said, "All my savings over the years are here, but I still have some loose change left over from shopping these days. I put it in my pocket after shopping yesterday, and I changed my clothes today so I didn't bring it with me. I'll bring it to Shushu tomorrow."
Want to trick him? No way.
Zhao Mingze narrowed his eyes. This kid is not easy to deal with.
However, putting those opinions aside, he had to admit that the kid was indeed good.
These days, not many people are willing to hand over their entire fortune.
Moreover, this kid has handed over all his family assets. Doesn’t that mean that he has become a pauper too?
Thinking that Gu Mingjing had an empty pocket just like himself, Zhao Mingze felt much more comfortable, and even the look in his eyes when he looked at him softened a little.
It was rare for her to speak up and say something nice for him, "Shushu, Mingjing has even given you his savings, so you have to treat him better. Apart from anything else, don't be too stingy with your pocket money. As a man, you still have to have some money in your pocket."
Jianshu was silent. Why did he hear a deep sense of sadness in these words?
Is Uncle Zhao's life usually so difficult? Should she secretly give him some money in the future?
Meng Ying immediately glared at him.
Zhao Mingze was so frightened that he quickly changed his words, "Of course, as a man, it's good enough to have something to eat. It doesn't matter whether there is pocket money or not."
Jianshu: I always feel more sad.
Gu Zhan was smirking in glee, while Gu Mingjing lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
The couple over there were whispering to each other, having a friendly exchange between husband and wife.
Zhao Mingze, completely wilted, saw Gu Zhan snickering there, feeling unhappy. He started to expose his dark past, "What are you laughing at? It's the pot calling the kettle black. We're on the same page. You weren't much better back then. Who was it that cheated the kids out of their pocket money and was finally caught by my sister-in-law hiding in the corner?"
At least he didn't cheat the kids out of their pocket money, right?
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present had different expressions.
Gu Zhan immediately became furious. "You're still bringing this up after so many years? You can't get over this, right? What about you? How are you any better than me? Who in the past slept on the floor for a week after being caught hiding some pocket money just to smoke?"
"That's better than you. At least I didn't cheat the kids out of their pocket money."
"Oh! Yes, he didn't cheat for pocket money, but he cheated for New Year's money. It's New Year's Day, and he made the child cry."
"you……"
“…”
Two old brothers had a quarrel, and the dark history they revealed was an eye-opener for the two younger generations present.
So, is this how everyone looks when they are young? You can't tell at all.
Jianshu lowered his head, but his ears were perked up, not missing any gossip.
You know, such an opportunity is rare. If you miss it this time, who knows if there will be a next time.
Listening to the two of them poking at each other's lungs and revealing more and more dark history, Jianshu's eyes became wider and wider.
There is such a thing!
Oh my god, Uncle Gu did something like this when he was young? I really can't tell.
Tsk tsk, you can’t judge a book by its cover.
However, after combining the content revealed by the two people, Jianshu became silent.
The processes are different, but the results are surprisingly similar. Why?
Perhaps it should not be called a black history, but a history of blood and tears.
Uncle Zhao, Uncle Gu, since you are brothers in distress, why do you have to hurt each other?
Gu Mingjing, who was standing by, came over quietly and cautiously asked, "Shushu, will I have pocket money in the future?"
He summarized the past events between his father and Uncle Zhao and came to a conclusion.
Brief summary: It’s all because of lack of money.
Those days when people secretly hid their own money were so heartbreaking that anyone who heard about it would cry, and Gu Mingjing was still frightened.
After all, their experiences are too similar.
Will he be so miserable in the future?
You know, he has handed over all his assets, and only has some scattered cash left.
Or, why not hide some secretly before handing it in?
Looking at the anxious Gu Mingjing, Jian Shu felt a little embarrassed. Should she be more generous? After all, the past between Uncle Zhao and Uncle Gu was really too sad.
She touched his head and whispered, "Don't worry, I'll give you more pocket money in the future and make sure your pockets aren't empty."
After thinking for a while, he decided on the amount with difficulty, "I'll give you ten dollars a month, no, five dollars."
Ten dollars seems a bit too much, let’s just take five.
Anyway, they would be living and eating at home from now on, so she would prepare everything the family needed. Five dollars was not a small amount for pocket money. She remembered that when she was a child, her mother was still alive and her father only had two dollars a month.
