Chapter 011: Father Lu's Wishful Thinking
The consequence of doing brain-burning things is that this sleep is easy to sleep. The next day, I slept until dawn. I waited for Lu Xiancheng to get up from the bed. When I opened the curtains, I immediately saw that the sun had hung in the middle of the sky.
After leaving the room, I squeezed toothpaste in the kitchen and hung a towel on my shoulder. Holding the brushing jar, Lao Lu came to the water in the yard, put some water in the water press, and pressed it twice. The cool well water flowed out of the water pipe.
Just brushing his teeth and washing his face with Jingshui, Lao Lu was pulled by his mother to eat breakfast in the kitchen. For Zhang Caixia, her son's failure to eat breakfast is not good for health, no matter how close it is to be around eleven o'clock, and it's time to have lunch right away.
Lu Xiancheng was not impatient at all. He smiled and held the bowl, just dried radish soaked in soy sauce, and poured two large bowls of white rice porridge into his stomach, directly eliminating the remaining rice in the pot to the sky.
"Where is Dad?" Lu Xianchen asked after putting down the bowl, looking at his mother who came over to pack the dishes.
"Your dad is out. At noon this time, he said he would not come back for dinner." After saying that, Zhang Caixia asked again: "Son, what do you want to eat at noon today, mom will make it for you!"
Lu Xiancheng's mouth was sweet and smeared with honey: "I like to eat whatever you do. When it comes to cooking, no one can compare to you!"
"I just knew to make me happy!" Zhang Caixia said this, her bright smile directly exposed her true thoughts. I don't know how to enjoy it.
"When will Dad come back?"
"I don't know if I said I was going to Secretary Lao Liang's house." After Zhang Caixia said that, she asked her son: "Tell my mother honestly, do you really want so much money to start a company?"
Lu Xiancheng said: "How about it? By the way, Dad told you? What do you think?"
"Is the person you know reliable?" Zhang Caixia asked, "You have just met you for a while, and you will have to invest 200,000 yuan in one go!"
Lu Xiancheng had already arranged his identity for his 'partner': "How is that unreliable? The teacher in our school just came back from Europe... I am preparing to take other people's elective courses."
In his previous life, he coaxed customers a lot. Lao Lu said this lie very casually, and immediately made up a convincing outfit for this. After saying this, he even believed himself three points.
When Zhang Caixia heard that it was the teacher of her son's school, she immediately felt a little relieved: "Your school teacher is so good." If Zhang Caixia, a social worker, would not let go of a word, this is the money to buy a house for her son, which is equivalent to the money of the old couple's grandson. How can she be careless!
Lu Xiancheng knew that his mother had no idea about major issues, so he usually could only beat the side drums and other things: "Then please tell me and dad, it would be better to give me less."
After saying that, he stood up from the chair and went out: "I'll go and help grandma cut edamame."
When he first left the house, Lu Xiancheng saw his grandmother sitting on a small stool under the eaves of the yard, leisurely cutting edamames while listening to Teacher Shan Tianfang's storytelling on the radio.
Grandma Lu saw her grandson coming and took a bench and sat next to her, reaching out to peel broad beans, and patted her grandson's hand away: "You guys are fine and go to play with friends, don't keep it at home!"
"Where are you looking for someone to play now?" Lu Xiancheng sat next to his grandmother and cut off the edamame.
"Why is there no one, what about this guy Guangyong?" Grandma Lu said kindly. This can reflect Grandma Lu's old idea of favoring boys over girls. If Lu Muzhi came to help the old lady Lai, she would definitely not be able to say this.
Lu Xiancheng said: "Where is this kid willing to come back? I don't know where to go wild in Shicheng. I can't find any classmates. Most of the students at home now either repeat the school or failed the exam. It's not appropriate for anyone to go to play with!"
Grandma Lu nodded after hearing this: "This is also reasonable."
After cutting a few, Grandma Lu wiped her hands directly on the apron in front of her: "Good grandson, come to the house with me."
After saying that, the old lady stood up from the stool. When Lu Xiancheng saw that his grandmother had stood up, he quickly helped her arm.
Following grandma into the house, Lu Xiancheng saw the old lady opening the box and flipping her clothes inside and asking strangely: "Grandma, what are you looking for?"
Generally speaking, grandma calls herself and her sister to come in for food, such as peach crisps and dried fruits. When I was a child, I liked grandma to call me the most, but today I came in to flip my clothes, which was a bit strange.
Lu Xiancheng couldn't help but stand next to his grandmother: "Grandma, I'll help you with whatever you want!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the old lady took out an old-fashioned gown, green fabric, and the whole body was the same color.
Just by looking at it, Lu Xiancheng knew that the jacket was nothing else, but the old lady's shroud.
In the hometown of Lu Xiancheng, the old lady who is over 70 years old will buy this thing even if her children and grandchildren do not buy it. It is not a matter of good luck or not, but a folk custom. In the hearts of the elderly, it should be bought at this age.
But when Lu Xianchen saw it, he felt a little sad. He remembered his own affairs in his previous life and said, "Why are you doing if you have nothing to do?"
The old lady took out an old handkerchief from her pocket and came out, and then opened the handkerchief and found a red book. When she saw Lu Xiancheng, she knew that this was the old lady's passbook.
Seeing this thing, Lu Xiancheng didn’t understand what was going on, so he immediately waved his hand and said, “Grandma, I can’t take this thing, it’s your money for retirement.”
Grandma Lu smiled and put the passbook on her grandson's hand, and then gently patted her grandson's hand: "What's the point of raising an elderly person? It's all fake to say that everyone is fake. In the end, it's not up to my own children and grandchildren. Living to my age, my son is filial and my wife is virtuous, and you grandchildren are obedient and sensible. Why am I leaving this thing for? Besides, I kicked my legs, and I'm leaving this thing for you?"
"I really can't ask for it, grandma, my dad knows, and I can't really beat me up!" Lu Xiancheng pushed the passbook back.
The old lady smiled and said, "Your father is my son. When will it be his turn to speak for my grandson? Besides, I was given this money to you. Now I can still smile on your face. I feel comfortable. I will wait for me to give it to you before I go. I can't even see this smile. It's not cost-effective! This book is more than 24,000 yuan, and grandma has just such a little money, so I can only do it like this."
After hearing what my grandmother said, Lu Xiancheng didn't know what happened. The tears were rolling in his eyes, and he was about to come out. He took a deep breath and grabbed the notebook and didn't know what to say.
"Don't blame your father, it's not that he can't bear to bear the money. They save this money to make your life easier in the future..." Grandma Lu took her grandson's hand and sat down beside the bed and explained.
"I know, but I always have to work harder. I will be in front of him more often these two days, and I will need to click down no matter what," said Lu Xiancheng.
Grandma Lu was happy: "Hurry up and hide this little book. Neither your father nor your second uncle knew that I had this thing!"
When Lu Xiancheng heard this, he smiled and put his passbook in his pocket in front of his grandmother.
The grandparents and grandson handed over the passbook and went under the eaves to continue cutting edamames.
…………
For several days, Lu Xiancheng would follow me whenever he saw me, either pounding his back or rubbing his shoulders, looking like a good son.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Lu Xingguozheng read the book his son had planned for him again in his study.
To be honest, Lu Xingguo has read this thing less than five times in the past two days, and every time he read it, he feels good. If his son hadn't answered it well, there would be no possibility of endorsement. Lu Xingguo wouldn't think his son could write such things at all.
But now the more I look at it, the more I feel that my son has become much more energetic. I have really put in the effort to understand the decoration industry, and it seems to be very forward-looking.
Lu Xingguo believed that he was not a mountain cannon with limited knowledge and had limited knowledge, and the county textile factory was not a small factory, with four or five thousand employees alone. Even if he couldn't understand such a planning book, he could see some tricks from the structure alone.
Just as Lu Xingguo was watching, the door of the study creaked. When he looked up, he saw his younger brother standing at the door. Lu Xingguo called his younger brother to come in and speak.
Lu Xinghua has been on duty these days, and he has no home at all. He went straight to his brother's study to inquire about the news as soon as he came back today. This is about his career, so Lu Xinghua naturally cares about it.
After Lu Xinghua came in, he closed the door casually: "Brother, what do you say over there?"
"What else can I say? Let you bear it. The old secretary can't speak at this time!" Lu Xingguo said.
"Oh, I'm not young anymore, I'm 44 years old and still have a deputy bureau." Lu Xinghua sighed: "I can't get up this year and I'll take two years to take care of it. How many years will I have in my life?"
Lu Xingguo also sighed: "What's the use of complaining about bad luck? It's better not to move now. If you don't move, you will have too many troubles!"
After saying that, he threw the thing in his hand in front of his younger brother: "Look at what planning book this kid in Xiaocheng has made. If you don't say anything else, this style is quite stylish!"
When Lu Xingguo mentioned his son's plan, he became more interested in returning.
When Lu Xinghua heard this, he picked it up and opened the first page, and smiled while looking, "Is this guy still doing this?"
However, after reading for a while, his expression became more and more serious. He skipped some unfamiliar things. Lu Xinghua read it very quickly and browsed it roughly in less than five minutes.
"It's not bad, it's so meaningful!" Lu Xinghua smiled and put the thing back on the table: "It seems that this kid has really grown a lot."
"You think?" Lu Xingguo took out a cigarette from the cigarette box on the table and threw it to his younger brother. He also lit one himself, and the two brothers started to swear and smog face to face.
"I don't know this thing. Besides, even if I understand this industry, things are done by people. They are not done by planning. The child is too young. To be honest, I'm afraid that he doesn't even have enough experience in dealing with people. If he starts a company rashly, he may even be deceived by someone." Lu Xinghua really expressed his thoughts.
Lu Xingguo agreed with his younger brother's statement. He said that his son was only eighteen years old and had no experience in doing business before. What kind of business can people who are still in school do? Don't look at the kindness of the people in society, how can they understand the human nature in society?
Not to mention the other thing, the county party committee assigned a college student a few years ago. He opened the door and got in first when he got in the car, which made the leader of the direct management unhappy. He was sent to the village to be a branch secretary or a deputy. He left it and didn't get into it for several years. Now this person probably doesn't know what he did wrong and offended who he offended. Just the 18-year-old boy of his son can accomplish something?
"Yes, if he throws it out like that, you won't be eaten by someone. By the way, even the bones and scum are swallowed up," Lu Xingguo said with a smile.
Lu Xinghua said, "Then I won't give it to you? Anyway, this kid is still in school, so let's concentrate on going to school first."
Lu Xingguo looked at his younger brother and laughed twice and said, "Give it!"
After hearing this, Lu Xinghua looked at his brother and didn’t know what he said. We said all the previous words in vain? Why did he give them again!
"But you can't give it all!"
Lu Xingguo's next words made Lu Xinghua breathe: "What are you doing like the funds above? If you report it, you will cut it first without saying anything. You will ask for 10,000 to 5,000. When you get it, you will only have 3,000."
"Didn't this kid say that he mainly bought a computer? I thought about how 20,000 yuan is enough for one. As long as he is determined to start a business, it is enough for a computer..." Lu Xingguo talked freely, directly connecting the tens of thousands his son wanted to 20,000 yuan, and even called it "hard work."
When Lu Xinghua heard this, he immediately laughed and teased his brother, saying, "You are not hurt by hard work in Xiancheng. Even if this kid loses all of it, it will only be 20,000 yuan to feel distressed. The child can still learn a lesson. If things can be accomplished, it will be better."
Lu Xingguo smiled slightly when he heard the old traitor.
"I think Xiancheng is really growing a lot now, so don't think about doing any business in the future. After graduating from college, I come back to the county and work first. Or I can join the police force. I will take care of this child while I am still in my seat. What kind of job can I have iron plate insurance in China? Now this child has seen that he has grown up, and with his brain and we help him, the career path may not be smoother than us," said Lu Xinghua.
When he heard his younger brother's words, Lu Xingguo suddenly fell into deep thought. In the past, even if his son had a temper, Lu Xingguo would not dare to do so. The donkey's temper became furious as soon as he got up. Is the officialdom a place where you can furious? But now that my younger brother said this, his mind has come back.
As the saying goes, everything is inferior, but reading is superior.
Why do you study? Isn’t it just to be an official?
Although I have no knowledge of civil and military skills, goods and imperial families, but in fact, officials are officials in society.
"Let's take a look!" Lu Xingguo thought for a while and then put this matter aside for a while.
If Lu Xiancheng knew that he wanted to get himself into the civil servant team because of a planner, he would be very amused. Lu Xiancheng didn't want to enter this industry. Although he looked pretty awesome, he was indeed quite awesome, but once he entered the officialdom, he couldn't help but talk about being at ease or not.
If you beat Lao Lu to death, you don’t want to enter the officialdom and be subject to restraint!
Lu Xiancheng's ideal now is to think of a life that even Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty envied: it was not as rich as a man from Jiangnan, who was still wearing a quilt with a height of five feet.
Old Lu is ready to have food and drink in this life, and the beautiful mansion, the beautiful man with the clear mountains and clear waters will be dealt with.
