Chapter 49 Watching a Show
Obviously.
Zhou Yu flatly rejected his eldest daughter's exaggerated request.
But Director Zhou's movie was about to be released. How could the release be delayed due to a small matter like financial constraints? That night, Director Zhou finished his work and drove to his villa in the western suburbs.
Zhou Yu, who had long expected that his eldest daughter would make such an appearance, had already gone into hiding.
Director Zhou searched around but couldn't find anyone.
"Mom, where is my dad!?"
Director Zhou asked.
"I told you, I'm going to a friend's house as a guest and I won't be back tonight."
Chang Ning said casually while arranging her clothes.
"Then give me five million."
Unable to find her father, Director Zhou turned his attention to her mother.
"You want money from me!?"
Chang Ning smiled and said, "Your mother is just a housewife. She has no job, no source of income, and Changge. I'm not talking about you. Look at how old your own daughter is this year. She still has the nerve to ask her parents for money. I and I
Your father has never asked you for money, he has already treated you well, so don’t be ignorant of your blessings."
"Even if I don't give it, why bother talking so much!"
Director Zhou said impatiently.
"You still find me annoying. I'm still annoyed when I see you now. Go back quickly and don't be an eyesore in front of me. You are married now. If you don't have money, just talk to your own husband. As a husband, it is reasonable for him to support you.
middle"
Chang Ning opened his mouth and said.
"he……"
Director Zhou just wanted to express his disdain for Chen Jiahui, but after thinking about it he changed his mind and said, "He hasn't made much money yet."
"Didn't he accept a movie? Where's the salary!?"
Chang Ning said doubtfully.
"It's only 600,000, I gave it all to him."
Director Zhou replied angrily, then turned around and continued looking for her father.
"If he earns less, you should spend less. As a woman, I would like to advise you that if you really want to live a good life, your expenses should never exceed two-thirds of your husband's income."
Waited for a long time.
Chang Ning didn't wait for her eldest daughter's answer and couldn't help but cursed "dead girl". However, she continued to sort out her various brand-name clothes. She picked out some old styles and threw them on the bed to keep them for tomorrow and asked her assistant to sell them online.
, the Zhou family is not short of this little money, but Chang Ning feels that instead of throwing it away, it is better to sell it, so that at least he can get Zhou Yu's compliment of "diligence and thrift in managing the house".
Wait until she has finished packing and comes out of the room.
Seeing that her eldest daughter had found Zhou Yu, Chang Ning stood on the second floor and said in surprise, "Aren't you hiding in the garage!? How did you find this damn girl?"
"I said"
An old man sitting in the living room downstairs drinking tea said.
He is Zhou Yu's father Zhou Jiulong, the old man known as "Jiu Ye". He looked at his son Zhou Yu and said calmly, "Chang Ge wants money, why don't you just give it to her? There's no need to hide! It's worthless."
s things"
"I give, I give"
After being scolded by his father, Zhou Yu had no choice but to admit defeat and said, "You go back first, I will have someone pay it to your account early tomorrow morning."
"Thank you grandpa"
Upon hearing this, Director Zhou smiled happily at Zhou Jiulong.
"What to say thank you to grandpa"
Zhou Jiulong held the tea cup and smiled. He was in his early eighties this year, with white beard and hair. He was in good spirits. He looked at his eldest granddaughter with a kind look, but there was an aura of hostility in his body. This was from his early beatings.
It was formed by killing and killing. Although it has been retired for some years, this momentum has been hard to eradicate.
"When my movie is released, I will take you and grandma to the cinema together."
Director Zhou said with a smile.
"..."
Zhou Jiulong, who was still drinking tea, his palms trembled inexplicably and his face turned green. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Just come back often to see me and your grandma. Forget about the movie."
The old man has never been afraid of anyone in his life.
After getting old, there are things to be afraid of.
“Dad, do you know how much money was invested in Changge’s movie!?”
When her daughter left, Chang Ning was unhappy. She ignored Zhou Yu's obstruction and went downstairs to Zhou Jiulong, saying, "At first we said we would invest seven million, but then we overspent and pursued eight million. Plus today's five million
, a total of 20 million, at the rate she is burning money, our family will go bankrupt soon."
"Chang Ning"
Seeing his wife talking to his father like this, Zhou Yu suddenly became a little angry.
Just when he was about to scold her, Zhou Jiulong raised his hand and said, "Chang Ning, you have been married for more than thirty years! In fact, at the beginning, when Xiaoyu said that he wanted to marry you, I didn't agree. After all, we Zhou
Although my family is not a well-known family, I and a few brothers worked hard and got a place in Hong Kong City. How could I marry an actress from a drama club? But in the end I agreed. As the same saying goes, children and grandchildren will have their own.
Good luck to children and grandchildren, it’s true that Chang Ge loses money in filming, but as parents, you should help if you can. When you really reach the point where you are beyond your capabilities, Chang Ge will understand. If she wants to film, let her do it.
If you lose, you will lose. There is nothing more important than the happiness of your children. Everyone else hopes that their family’s wealth and status can last for several generations or even never decline. I am different. I will eat more if I can eat today. If I can eat today, I will eat more.
The more happy you are, the more happy you are. As for whether you will be hungry or sad tomorrow, that is all tomorrow's business. Live today and do what you do today. Several brothers who came to Hong Kong City with me, in that kind of precarious life
In these days, many people have no tomorrow, so Chang Ning, tomorrow has nothing to do with us. The most important thing is to live well today and make Chang Ge happy today."
"Dad, this is not your time anymore"
Chang Ning retorted.
"hehe"
Zhou Jiulong poured a cup of tea, laughed twice and said, "Same, same."
immediately.
Zhou Jiulong raised his head and looked at his son and asked, "You asked Qian Fan's son to do what he did, right? Don't be as gentle as a little girl in doing things in the future. Buddha has two sides, one is the Bodhisattva with low eyebrows, and the other is Jin Gang's angry eyes.
Since you draw your sword, there is no need to leave any room."
"I will pay attention in the future"
Zhou Yu responded quickly.
"Don't be too serious."
Zhou Jiulong held the tea bell and took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for his son, and then asked, "How are Chang Ge and Chen Jiahui getting along!?"
“Still like that”
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "You are acting in front of me and Chang Ning!"
"I'm taking advantage of someone's situation. I didn't get married if I didn't want to. I took advantage of someone's mother being seriously ill to force someone to sign a contract. Only a girl like Chang Ge can do this kind of thing."
Zhou Jiulong sighed and said, "Let's see again! If the relationship between the two has not progressed in another two years, don't delay Jiahui. Young people's time is precious, and they will grow older every day.
It’s a pity to spend so much time with Changge.”
"Um"
Zhou Yu nodded.
Neither Director Zhou nor Chen Jiahui expected that everything they did would be seen by others.
But this is normal.
As a third-generation director, Zhou Yu has never seen any kind of performance, especially when Chen Jiahui and Director Zhou were performing, there was no tacit understanding. As Director Zhou's mother, Chang Ning knew exactly what her daughter was thinking.
Pretending not to know.
Just take your time and watch the show.
