Chapter 259
"Brother, what should I do if you used up the 20,000 yuan you gave me last time?" Xia Dirui looked pitiful.
Chen Huayao's face changed: "You girl movies, that's great! I've used all the pension I saved for two years and I've used it for half a month. Where did you use it?"
"I bought a mobile phone, a few clothes, and a little snack, but it's gone." Xia Dirui lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him.
Chen Huayao was so surprised that he couldn't stop talking: "I bought such a little thing for 20,000 yuan?"
Xia Dirui hurried over to help him pinch his shoulders, and said with a smile: "No, it's not, the things are pretty good. I don't have much idea about money. I'm not studying this?" In fact, she lived under the same roof with her brother for so long. She worked hard on buying vegetables and daily necessities by herself. She had already had her own little plan for money. At this time, she said it was just an excuse, afraid that her brother would be angry.
Chen Huayao was about to scold him, but saw the little girl rubbing her shoulders hard, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her crystal clear face was made of pink and jade, looking particularly cute.
I couldn't help but feel pity and changed my words: "Money is something outside of my body, but you can't be too generous. You must know how to control yourself and learn to restrain your desires. Otherwise, when you grow up in the future, you must earn every needle and thread by yourself. You thought everyone could meet your requirements, and you would give whatever you want?"
The little girl just likes to listen to his rigid teachings and looks at her brother with flickering eyes.
At home, my father never educated himself. If he had any requirements, he would just let his subordinates handle it and would meet the requirements at all costs.
There are too many such examples, which will only make people increasingly distorted in their deformed values, and people are becoming more and more dissatisfied with desires and becoming more and more greedy. It seems that all the requirements can be met, but in fact there is no real happiness in the heart.
On the contrary, a qualified father should try his best to meet the reasonable requirements of his children, refuse unreasonable requirements, and strengthen education for them. If appropriate, beat them and scold them. This is a normal family.
This is also one of the reasons why the little girl is unwilling to return to that perverted family. Because there is a brother who really dares to scold her, which makes her feel like home. Although the stinky brother often doesn't go home like her father.
Chen Huayao said again: "In order to deepen your thoughts and lessons, I decided to give you another 20,000 yuan."
The little girl looked at him in confusion.
"If you want to make reasonable use of these 20,000 yuan, you must use it until March next year. It must include our food, electricity, telephone bills, rent, daily necessities, and all food and clothing expenses. Every time you buy something, you must record it carefully so that you can analyze what you spend on and what you shouldn't spend. If there is excess, it is your pocket money. If you don't have enough money, you will be sold!"
The little girl tilted her head and thought: "On average, it's only 7,000 yuan a month... Forget it, it should be enough. Anyway, the aunts who go shopping for groceries will not charge money, so they can save a lot of money from there."
Chen Huayao had to explain a few more words, but the phone rang.
"Hey? Manager Feng, is there anything wrong with it so late?"
It was called by Feng Yusheng, the head of the Red River Valley Bar. "Two old guys have been sitting at the door all day. I saw that it was so cold outside that I wanted them to come in and avoid it. They said they had to meet you, but they refused to come in. What do you think?"
"Ask them what's wrong. If life is really difficult, give them some money. By the way, you lend me 20,000 first, yes, that's my original bank account. Let's do this, I still have official duties and have not handled it." Chen Huayao wanted to hang up the phone.
"Wait, Chairman, I have given the money. They refuse to accept it, and they don't say what it is, and they insist on seeing you."
The chairman retired for more than two years and the Red River Valley Bar has only been open for half a year. Who can find him directly? There must be something strange about this. Chen Huayao said patiently: "Where did they come from? Why did he look for me in Red River Valley?"
"Oh, this? I asked, they had gone to the neighborhood committee to find you, but you haven't been to work for four months. Aunt Huang asked them to come here to wait, saying that they would definitely see you."
"Nest Committee? Aunt Huang?" Thanks to the ideal of dedicating oneself to society, Chen Huayao felt that everything related to the neighborhood committee had to be taken seriously, and said, "Let them wait, I'll go over and take a look."
It was cold outside and people were reluctant to travel, and the roads were smooth. At night, you could drive from Qiangwei Street to Xiangzhang Road and reach it in half an hour.
Before leaving, he did not forget to warn the little girl not to go out without permission, and asked her to wait for Nannan to strictly check her coursework after school.
The weather forecast is zero to second degree today, with rain and snow, the climate in the south is humid and unreasonable to be cold, and it is much more uncomfortable than the dry air conditioning temperature of minus ten degrees below the north.
Chen Huayao wrapped himself in a thick and silly ochre military cotton coat, drove the heating in the classic replica Mercedes-Benz, and drove to the Red River Valley Bar.
Due to the weather, few members in the bar were enjoying themselves, and regular customers usually found a place to hold the woman to sleep. Only six or seven boys gathered in a group to chat and laugh in a low voice. They were from the Iron Blood Youth League.
There are also several leaders of the Crab Committee, director Lei Xin, deputy director Bajie, and Song Yuan, one of the 13 Standing Committee members, who is in charge of all matters in Hong Cherry Road.
Lei Xin is handsome and there are countless women who are willing to pay him. He is tired of playing. It is better to drink with his brothers at this time. The Mayflower Hotel called and said that someone was making trouble and asked him to go and see him. Seeing Feng Yusheng, the chairman would be here soon, and he was not in a hurry to leave.
The eldest sister of the foreman Huang Yueyun had already gotten off work. When she heard that the chairman was coming, she picked up a piece of rag and pretended to wipe the table.
Chen Huayao shrank his neck, his hands were wrapped in his sleeves and squeezed into the glass door. When everyone saw it was him, they stood up and shouted: "Chairman!" The voices were front and back, big and small, and uneven.
"Damn it, this ghost weather is so cold. Where is Feng Yusheng? Let me have a cup of hot milk first."
"Do you want white wine to warm your body?"
"I don't drink white wine, and my stomach will feel uncomfortable when I drink white wine." Chen Huayao stomped his feet hard, walked to the sofa opposite Lei Xin, took off his ** cotton hat and threw it next to him. Huang Yueyun quickly took it, and quickly helped him take off his cotton coat. The bar was full of heat, so it wouldn't be suitable to wear it so thick.
The waiter brought a cup of hot milk tea, and Feng Yusheng led two simple-dressed old men over.
A man and a woman, about seventy years old, have a fat and thick cotton coat and trousers, and their faces are covered with hills and wrinkles. The turbid old eyes have long lost all their spirits, and their faces are full of miserable and helpless.
There are often old men and women dancing and singing in Xiangzhang Road Square. They are flawless and their legs are like bells. Their mental outlook is a hundred times stronger than the otakus who stays at home for many years without sunshine. Have you ever seen such a desolate expression?
When the two old men saw Chen Huayao sitting opposite him drinking milk tea, they were reluctant to feel excited and shouted: "Director Chen!" They were so timid that they dared not come forward.
"Oh, it's you guys, sit down."
Chen Huayao finally remembered that the old man is a fruit farmer who often sells citrus on Xiangzang Road?
When I first came, I was cheated by a bastard with fake money. Director Chen helped me. I caught the scammer and got deranged. I still have not seen it in the detention center. The old man also obtained the "Stand Settings Charge" issued by Director Chen. He set up stalls in Xiangzhang Road all year round, and his income is good.
That old lady is the wife of the old man selling fruits. She would come to help her when she was busy with business. Director Chen has seen her several times.
The old couple lived a very simple life and couldn't bear to spend money when they made money. They said they saved the money and left it to their sons and grandchildren, and they wanted to build a new house in their hometown in the countryside, and their clothes were very shabby.
Director Chen couldn't manage other people's lives, but the old man who sold the fruits was grateful to Director Chen for his kindness and kindness. He sent fruits to the neighborhood committee office every few days, and gave them dozens of kilograms at a time.
Director Chen doesn't come to work all year round, which makes Aunt Huang and a few young clerks very happy.
What kind of expenses are paid at each time, such as sewer repair, street beautification, collective entertainment activities at the end of the year, lighting projects, etc., are required by the families in the streets and communities to raise funds. The old man selling fruits is the most active, and he also thinks he is a part of Xiangzhang Road and gives the most money. He also shows up and tries to convince other families who are unwilling to pay, saving a lot of trouble from the neighborhood committee.
Such a kind-hearted old man who is grateful and kind will like someone wherever he puts it.
The waiter brought in two stools to ask the old man to sit down.
"I heard you were looking for me, so I rushed over immediately. It's the end of the year, and there are a lot of things to be busy in the office." Director Chen said gently: "Feng Yusheng, give them two cups of hot tea, and say what if you have something to do. How long have you been here? Just now, Boss Feng asked you to come in to avoid the wind, why wouldn't he refuse to enter?"
The old man shook his butt and just got stuck on the bench. When he heard Director Chen's words, he immediately knelt down in front of him, burst into tears and choked and said, "Chen, Chen, Director Chen..."
His wife was in a very stable mood, and she also started to thrust and tears filled her face. The two old men cried in the bar like tears.
Chen Huayao was shocked and asked, "Lao Meng, what's going on? Get up and talk about it slowly." At that moment, two members of the Iron Blood Youth League came forward to help them up.
"Director Chen, I, I want justice!" Lao Meng refused to get up, so he crawled in front of him with all his heart, grabbed his dusty leather boots with both hands, and said stiffly: "I know, only you can give me justice!"
Director Chen kept his original sitting posture and actually Dalala accepted the ceremony of Lao Meng's crawling and said lightly: "I can give you justice, but I want to know what's going on. Ele. What's the matter? Let's eat something first. Feng Yusheng, give them a bowl of braised pork."
The two old men's stomachs made a gurgling sound at the right time, their faces turned red, and they sat back on the bench and slowly stopped crying.
The chairman presided over justice at Xiangzhang Road, and many people asked him to do things. The chairman occasionally invited people to have a good meal and good food.
This meal is of particular importance. It is used to entertain luxurious, delicious Western dishes. If you also have one or two bottles of foreign wine, ordinary people only say that the specifications are high-end and face-saving. In fact, it is to let you get out when you are full. Will your trash committee stand up for you?
When you entertain a sophisticated Chinese meal, things may still have room for improvement.
If you are entertaining a simple four dishes and one soup, don’t complain about why the Crab Committee is so shabby, because your affairs have been agreed to by the Crab Committee. Go home and make a wish quickly. Go to Chairman Legislative Yuan’s tablet for immortality.
