Apart from Li Xiaofen and Aunt Li, Zhao Hao was the first person to toast him because he donated money to the welfare home.
Those other people toasted to themselves not because they donated money to the welfare home, but because they found that they seemed to be rich people.
These are two completely different starting points. Those who come to the welfare home to toast really care about the welfare home; those who come to toast themselves are hoping to have a relationship with themselves.
After all, it must not be easy for these friends to be able to donate 1 million to the welfare home. It is far beyond their cognitive scope.
Ye Chen and Zhao Hao drank a glass of wine, and Zhao Hao sighed sincerely: "Ye Chen, I am really happy to see that you can be where you are today! Back then, I felt that you are different from each of us, and you are not the same.
I know why. At that time, I thought you were very powerful and I thought you would definitely be successful in the future! I didn’t expect you to be so generous!"
Ye Chen smiled calmly and said: "Back then, when the two of us slept together on the construction site, we were already very happy if we had enough to eat every day. With our monthly salary, the two of us could be extravagant and buy two side dishes.
A few bottles of beer and a drink together in the shed at the construction site is already a great satisfaction in my opinion.”
After a pause, Ye Chen continued: "Because of that experience, I don't have many requirements for material things now. I want to eat better, wear better, use better, and live better.
In fact, it really doesn’t make any sense to me.”
Zhao Hao nodded seriously and said, "Brother, I understand what you are saying. Back then, we were doing the same job together, but I saved all the money I earned, hoping that I could use it as capital to turn around in the future; but
All the money you earned was donated to the welfare home. At that time, I felt that I might not be as good as you in this life, because your situation is much bigger than mine!"
After saying that, Zhao Hao sighed and laughed at himself: "It turns out that I really have no future."
Ye Chen said seriously: "Brother, don't belittle yourself at any time. As long as you can do it, you are worthy of heaven and earth, your conscience, and yourself. Even if your material life is not that good, you are still a very happy person."
As he spoke, he added: "Look at how many rich people in this world have made their fortunes by doing bad things, and how many people who have no money are deliberately trying to grab something from others, steal something, cheat something, or take advantage of them."
First of all, there are too few people who can do it without losing their heart!"
Xiao Churan listened to Ye Chen's words silently, and suddenly felt that at this moment, the image of her husband became more glorious in her mind.
From the time he donated money to the welfare home to the time he said something like this, I was impressed.
Zhao Hao drank some wine and got a little drunk, so he was a little impulsive at this time. He held Ye Chen's hand and said with red eyes: "Ye Chen, I have been confused for more than 20 years. Today you made me understand. Now I want to
I thought, I shouldn't have left in the first place. I went to Haicheng because I always thought about turning over, getting rich, and becoming a master. In the past few years, I have never thought about taking the initiative to give back to the people who raised me.
I grew up in an orphanage. Looking back now, I feel really guilty..."
Ye Chen smiled slightly: "Zhao Hao, you should take care of yourself first, and then help the world. If you are too busy to take care of yourself, I don't want you to donate your limited money to the welfare institution, so you have to take care of yourself first, we are all suffering.
Life goes by without family or support, and the only one you can rely on is yourself. At times like this, you must be kind to yourself and make yourself live a good life first."
Zhao Hao burst into tears and choked up: "You persuade me so, why don't you do it yourself? I know that when Aunt Li was sick, you gave Aunt Li all the money you could find. That
time, why don’t you want to make yourself live a better life first?”
Ye Chen said awkwardly: "Our situations are different after all. I am married, but you are not."
With that said, Ye Chen took Xiao Churan's hand and said to Zhao Hao: "Everyone in Jinling knows that I am a famous soft rice king. I eat my wife's food, drink my wife's food, and use my wife's food.
My wife lives with me. With such a good wife, I don’t have to spend a penny on myself and I can have enough food and clothing. In this case, it’s useless to ask for money.”
Xiao Churan was suddenly held by Ye Chen's hand, and suddenly felt a little confused in his heart.
Listening to what Ye Chen said again, she was extremely moved.
She felt that at this moment, she understood her husband a little more.
But at the same time, she also felt that at this moment, she was a little more unfamiliar with her husband.
Once upon a time, she had thought that her husband had no future, no ambition, just a coward who didn't dare to fight back when he was scolded, or who didn't dare to fight back when he was beaten.
But now, she feels that her husband seems to be much more mysterious than she imagined!
