rebirth of cataclysm

Tong Bailiang was going to leave after he was fifteen. He had a teaching position and could not continue to help Hu Jianjun's family. Therefore, he had no feeling at all about what Hu Jianjun said.

Hu Mingyi was an honest person, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with Hu Jianjun's words. What he originally said was to help out on a voluntary basis. Now that the two principals have recovered from their injuries, they want to take over. This is reasonable and natural.

However, the more indifferent the two of them were, the more regretful Hu Jianjun felt. He always felt that he owed him something, so he looked at Hu Mingchen, hoping that Hu Mingchen could find a way to relieve himself.

Although Hu Mingchen is cunning to some people, he is not the kind of person with a bad heart.

On the contrary, it can be said that Hu Mingchen is still very generous to his family or people who are trustworthy and patient with him.

How could a person like him be indifferent? Even if it was agreed in advance that the help would be free of charge, Hu Mingchen couldn't do that kind of thing, not to mention that the income in the past ten days was indeed good.

As a result, Hu Mingchen stepped forward to help Hu Jianjun out of the siege. He got up and went to his small room, and took out two small paper packages wrapped in newspapers from his schoolbag.

"Tong Erye, brother, I've really worked hard for you during this period. This is a small gesture. I hope you will accept it." Hu Mingchen placed two small paper bags next to the wine glasses in front of Tong Bailiang and Hu Mingyi.

The two of them may have made some guesses, but they were not sure what was in the newspaper, so they opened it and read it separately.

As soon as they opened it, they found that each of them had 500 yuan wrapped in it. Seeing that it was money, the two of them put it down almost at the same time and refused.

"What is this? Isn't it already agreed that we can help you for free without any money? Take it back, take it back." Tong Bailiang said.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Tong is right. If we collect this money, what will happen to us? This money cannot be collected under any circumstances. Take it back." Hu Mingyi said even more fiercely.

"Bo Liang, Mingyi, don't you think it's too little? You won't achieve anything with this money, it won't affect you. You have worked hard for more than ten days, and this is what you should get." Hu Jianjun said.

"Yes, Mr. Tong, eldest brother, although I said the help was for free at the beginning, the money my family gave me was not wages, it was just a little bit of gratitude. You helped my family out of love, and our family means a little thanks.

Yes, it's not a contradiction. As my father said, if you really think it's too little, then I'll just get some more and add more." As he said this, Hu Mingchen made a gesture to stand up.

Hu Mingyi quickly grabbed Hu Mingchen and pulled him back to the bench: "Xiaochen, sit down, none of us would like to be too little. It is really unnecessary. Although your family has made some money, you still have to pay off the debt.

It’s also the medical expenses, so there won’t be much left. We’ll just accept your family’s wishes, so there’s no need to take any money.”

"Brother, even if you have to pay back the debt and spend medical expenses, a thousand yuan won't affect anything. To be honest, apart from those, there is still a lot left over. There is no need to be careless about this. If you really don't want this small amount of money,

Take it, my family is sorry

I went. When we were looking for help that day, you and Mr. Tong were very nice. You were both very nice. Aren’t my family stingy enough? If you didn’t take it, you would have made my family very unkind and unkind.

"Hu Mingchen said sincerely.

During this time together, Tong Bailiang and Hu Mingyi learned from Hu Mingchen that the equipment payment owed by his family had not been fully paid so far, so Hu Mingyi said what he said.

"Mingyi, Bailiang, just listen to Xiaochen and accept it. He said this is not wages, and no one will gossip." Jiang Yucai agreed.

There is nothing wrong with what Jiang Yucai said, but it sounds easy to cause ambiguity. Neither of them said that they were worried about someone gossiping. In fact, they were indeed worried about this. After all, they offered to help for free and later received money, so it was inevitable that they would not

Some people say that they are thoughtful and duplicitous.

But it's one thing for people to think so, and it's another thing for Jiang Yucai to say it like this. If she doesn't say this, people won't want to accept it. If she says it so straightforwardly, it's even less likely that they will accept it.

"It's true that my second aunt didn't take it even if she said she wouldn't take it. It's not because she's afraid that someone will gossip. It's because since it's been agreed upon, it should be done as promised." Long Cui'e, who had been sitting next to her silently, also said so.

Made a statement.

Rural people attach great importance to face. Even if it was a relatively small sum of five hundred yuan, Long Cui'e did not want to be known as greedy for money.

Long Cui'e has expressed her stance, can Li Xiumei not follow up? Wouldn't that reflect her bad conscience?

"Yes, yes, I really can't accept this money. No matter how much I care, it won't cost as much as five hundred yuan." Li Xiumei followed.

Both families and the couple stated that they would not accept the money, so Hu Jianjun and Hu Mingchen were in a bit of a dilemma.

Hu Jianjun even glared at Jiang Yucai, implying that he was blaming her for not being able to speak. It was simply causing trouble without helping her.

"Okay, since Mr. Tong and the eldest brother don't accept it, forget it. I'll take it back. My family understands your concerns. Anyway, my family will remember your kindness." Hu Mingchen stretched out his hand to take back the two paper bags.

Put it in front of Hu Jianjun.

"Xiaochen... what are you doing? You... we can't be ungrateful." His eyes blamed Jiang Yucai, but Hu Jianjun directly blamed Hu Mingchen this time.

Hu Jianjun felt that you couldn't do this even if someone was being polite, so he took the money back in front of them. He didn't do things like this, which made his family so ignorant. It's not possible to take back the money in this way.

Like this.

"Second uncle, we should have taken it back, so why did we become ungrateful? We have never thought of this way. What did you say Xiaochen did?" Long Cui'e helped Hu Mingchen and said.

"Second brother, what Cui'e said makes sense. We won't collect this money anyway. We give each code one code, and help is help. If my family sells things to your family, then of course we have to collect the money that should be collected.

Just put it down and don't mention this matter again." Tong Bailiang followed.

"Dad, look, if the second master and eldest brother don't want it, we won't let their reputation be damaged." Hu Mingchen didn't even have the slightest awareness of being criticized. He even had a faint smile on his face when he spoke, "

There's no point in glaring at me, I can't force it on you."

"You..." Hu Jianjun was so angry that he didn't know how to train Hu Mingchen.

"Dad, look, you have never given New Year's money to Tong Zhiwei and Xiaomin. Why don't you give some New Year's money to them today?" Hu Mingchen ignored Hu Jianjun's anger and continued.

Giving out New Year's money? Hu Jianjun's mind didn't react for a while. Why did New Year's money appear out of nowhere?

In the local area, New Year's money is usually only given to the younger generations of one's own family. Even if it is a neighbor in a village, basically no one will give it to outsiders.

"Why should we give out the lucky money? Xiaomin and the others have already received the lucky money this year. Besides, the New Year is over, what else can we give out? No, no," Long Cui'e said quickly.

Li Xiumei just nodded this time and didn't say anything.

"Sister-in-law, who said that the New Year is over? It is still the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and has not passed, so it is completely fine to pay. Dad, Xiaomin and others call you the second grandpa, and Tong Zhiwei also calls you the second uncle. Why don't you give out some new year's money?

It should be no problem." Hu Mingchen said with a smile.

This time Hu Jianjun finally came to his senses.

Since the adults don't accept the five hundred yuan, it is logical and justifiable to give it to the children as lucky money. It cannot be said that it is not allowed to give out lucky money on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

"Yes, yes, yes, we are having dinner on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and we are still celebrating the New Year. Come, come, come, some dolls, I will give you lucky money." Hu Jianjun, who had woken up, picked up the money in front of him and stood up.

Walking towards some children.

How could others not see what Hu Mingchen and Hu Jianjun were planning? Tong Zhiwei, who was two years younger than Hu Mingchen, was indispensable, but Li Xiumei humbly stood in the way and refused to let Tong Zhiwei accept the money given by Hu Jianjun.

But how could Li Xiumei, a woman, block Hu Jianjun, a man? After two attempts, Hu Jianjun still stuffed five hundred yuan into the small purse of Tong Zhiwei's new clothes.

When it was Hu Dehua, Hu Xiaomin and Hu Xiaohua's turn, Long Cui'e also blocked Hu Jianjun from giving them the so-called New Year's money.

However, as soon as Hu Jianjun caught Hu Dehua, he stuffed two hundred yuan into his trouser pocket. Hu Xiaomin tried to hide, but was stopped by Jiang Yucai, who also stuffed two hundred yuan into his pocket. Hu Xiaohua was smarter and ran away without anyone encouraging her.

Went outside the door.

It's not appropriate for Hu Jianjun to go after Hu Xiaohua with 100 yuan, but it's also not appropriate to give it to the two brothers Hu Dehua and Hu Xiaomin.

And there is another problem. Hu Dehua and Hu Xiaomin both received 200 yuan, while Hu Jianjun only had 100 yuan left in his hand. Since they are giving out lucky money, it must be fair.

Fortunately, Hu Jianjun had some money on him, so he took out another hundred yuan and made up two hundred yuan. He then forced the two hundred yuan to Long Cui'e and said, "That little girl runs fast, help her keep it. Turn around."

Give it to her."

"Second Master, I'll give you two hundred yuan as a new year's gift...this is your family..." Long Cui'e wanted to return the money to Hu Jianjun.

Hu Jianjun interrupted Long Cui'e's words: "Just take it if you are asked to take it. This is for the children, not for you. What else are you talking about? If you don't accept it, teach them not to call me Grandpa Second in the future. Really?"

Yes. I made some money this year. If I had been asked to pay twenty last year, I wouldn’t have had it. Don’t be verbose and just take it.”

Hu Jianjun had already said this, so Long Cui'e had no choice but to accept it no matter how reluctant she was.

It's just that because the original five hundred was paid for one hundred, Hu Jianjun was asked to spend an extra one hundred to make up for it, making it seem like he had taken a greater advantage.

In any case, with the money out, Hu Mingchen's family felt at ease, and Tong Bailiang's and Hu Mingyi's families were also happy.
