Chapter 70: Cherish the present and strive for the future
When he returned home, seeing that it was still early, Lou Cheng diligently disposed of the changes of clothes he had saved in the past two days, made an additional backup of the valuable things saved in the computer, and even did some housework.
After finishing all this, his mother Qi Fang slowly came back from the community office. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the clean coffee table, looked suspiciously at her son who was full of pride and was waiting for praise, and blurted out:
"Nariko, what aroused you?"
"No." Lou Cheng denied, "Didn't I also clean the dormitory at school? I just had nothing to do and it was just a whim."
Qi Fang didn't pay much attention to this matter. She smiled happily and then complained: "You kid, why didn't you tell me in advance about such a big thing as going to become a master? We didn't prepare any specialties for your master. It's so rude. Don't tell me.
, I know that your master is a big shot and may not look down on our little things, but you still have to do your best. It has been said in the TV series that etiquette is less important than affection."
"Mom, the sect was too hasty. Don't worry, I've prepared a special product for you, four bottles of Ningshui Daqu's original wine. My master is very satisfied with it. This is what he likes." Lou Cheng smiled and relieved.
A word from my mother,
Your daughter-in-law is still attentive enough!
Qi Fang looked him up and down, and showed a suspicious look: "You have thought so carefully..."
Although my son has indeed grown up and matured, it is difficult for him to automatically and consciously understand the details of these interpersonal interactions if no one teaches him.
But I haven’t had time to tell him yet!
As for his father, well, it would be better if he didn’t neglect him!
"Yes, thank you mom for teaching me through words and deeds." Lou Cheng complimented without conscience, making Qi Fang smile brightly, walked into the kitchen, and started preparing dinner.
Lou Cheng couldn't bear to say anything about buying a house. When his father got off work and the family was sat and chatting, he solemnly said: "Mom, Dad, you can go and look at the real estate around you when you have time. In three years,
The kind within.”
"What?" Qi Fang was confused.
Lou Cheng explained unhurriedly: "Didn't I win the championship? I have a bonus of 600,000 yuan. I am thinking about buying a new house for my family. Now one bedroom and two living rooms are too small, and I don't even have guests.
convenient."
"Oh..." Qi Fang said in surprise, and then smiled from ear to ear, "Chengzi, it's great if you have this heart, you don't have to buy it! In two years, the family will have enough for the down payment, haha, I'll give it to you
You tell me, now Fatty Guo and his daughter and wife are very polite to your father, their salary has been increased, and the previous bonus for technical improvement has also been paid!"
Lou Zhisheng couldn't help but smile, and managed to maintain his reserve and said: "Your mother is right, it's good if you have this heart. It's not like the family can't expose the pot or save money. Six hundred thousand is a big deal in our small place.
It's a lot, but I heard that your martial arts training expenses are quite high, so don't throw away the expense like this. Save it, you will have plenty of money to spend in the future."
"Yes, Chengzi, you have made a fortune now, and you will definitely not live in a small place like Xiushan in the future. Mom heard that housing prices in big cities are very high, tens of thousands per square meter. You want to buy a spacious and better house.
, this 600,000 down payment is not enough, so save it for marrying a wife in the future!" Qi Fang said with a smile.
There seems to be something wrong with this script. Why does it mention housing prices in big cities? The corner of Lou Cheng's mouth twitched, but he did not correct his mother's misconception.
Not every big city has tens of thousands per square meter.
He thought for a while, deliberately put on a confident posture and said:
"Dad, Mom, are you thinking too far ahead? Okay, let's talk about the long term. With my current strength and level, even if there is no big improvement in the future, I still can't earn one or two million a year.
The problem is, if you are lucky and win a few more championships, your income will be even higher. If you don’t need the 600,000 yuan, are you worried about not having a down payment? "
"Besides, our housing prices in Xiushan are not high. Didn't you say that the surrounding area is only 3,510 square meters, and the better residential areas are only 4,000 square meters? If I buy a house of 120, 30 square meters, I can still have around 100,000 yuan left.
It’s enough to cover your expenses for one or two years. Besides, it’s not like you can’t make money anymore… If you save your savings well, won’t they also be mine in the future?”
Lou Cheng made a joke to dispel the worries of his parents.
Qi Fang was very moved when she heard this: "I heard them say that housing prices in Xiushan are low and will rise in the future. If you don't buy now, you will definitely spend money in vain in two years..."
"Is this still low? Xiushan is not a big city, how can it rise again? It might even fall." Lou Zhisheng shook his head.
"But we just live by ourselves." Lou Cheng added, "Don't you think our home is too small?"
"But, there are all acquaintances in this community, uncles and aunts that you know. Your dad and I usually have people to talk to and play cards with. If we move here and you are not around, it will be boring for us as an old couple..."
Qi Fang was still a little hesitant.
"Mom, you're thinking too much. We'll just pick out the surrounding properties and come back after eating and taking a walk. You have to work in the community during the day." Lou Cheng continued to encourage.
Qi Fang stopped talking and looked at Lou Zhisheng, only to see that he was also silent and did not refute.
"The house is really small, and it's not convenient for guests to come. In two years, Chengzi may bring his girlfriend back, so we can't wrong this girl..." Qi Fang rambled on, and unknowingly changed sides.
Lou Zhisheng poured some wine, took a sip, and made a decision:
"Nariko, just take out 400,000 yuan and make up for the rest at home. When the time comes, your name will be written on the real estate certificate!"
"Okay, okay." Seeing his father's firm attitude, Lou Cheng didn't make any trouble.
Qi Fang sighed a few times, and soon became cheerful: "Then I will ask someone tomorrow and go to the nearby properties!"
"It's better to find an agent for this kind of thing. The recommendation from others is not reliable. Didn't Chen Hui's family get cheated out of tens of thousands last time?" Lou Zhisheng said calmly and maturely.
Seeing his parents excitedly discussing the matter of buying a house, Lou Cheng raised the corner of his mouth and felt relieved, feeling very accomplished and satisfied. The haze accumulated in the past two days disappeared.
Cherish the present, work hard for the future, don’t worry about things you can’t do temporarily, and treat the people around you well!
After chatting along for a while, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Yan Zheke:
"Keke, I plan to use 400,000 yuan from the bonus to buy a new house for my parents..."
I always feel like I have to explain this kind of thing to Coach Yan...
Yan Zheke had heard him mention it before and was not surprised at this time. She chuckled and said:
"That's good, but why are you telling me this? You decide on your own money~!"
"I am your orange, of course I have to tell you." Lou Cheng responded with a "smirk".
Yan Zheke rolled his eyes:
"Then what if I don't agree? Will you still buy it?"
"I believe you will agree." Lou Cheng said with a red face and a smile.
This is the harmony and tacit understanding between the two of them.
Yan Zheke "cupped his chin with one hand, looked at the sky and blinked" and said, "I mean what if?"
Lou Cheng's head suddenly got bigger. How should people respond to this?
This routine is an eternal problem!
Before he could type, the girl covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Are you breaking out in a cold sweat? Well, you don't need to answer. I will answer. If two people have such a big conflict in their outlook on life, it won't last long.
"
"But, Cheng Zi, I've been reading a lot of posts and Weibo lately. Let's assume a situation. If you only earn tens of thousands of yuan a year, and 600,000 yuan is hard to come by, even though your parents live in old
A little too small, but not without a house. Would you choose to give them 400,000 yuan to buy a new house?"
Lou Cheng thought for a while and said with a wry smile: "In this case, I don't think it should be done. People have to act within their capabilities."
"Look, you can change houses for your parents without any psychological burden. I only think that you are very filial and a nice person. I don't have any other ideas. In the final analysis, it is because we have confidence. Money does not mean confidence, but it is definitely one of them.
A very important part." Yan Zheke said, "Sit upright and obediently."
"Well... I feel like I'm being guided by a life mentor again!" Lou Cheng said sincerely.
"Hehe." Yan Zheke made a "work hard" expression, "So, young man, work hard! Make good money and improve yourself!"
This is the root of the problem.
Seeing these words, Lou Cheng finally came to his senses. Keke had gone around in such a big circle, but he was still comforting himself about his master, preventing himself from being decadent, and allowing himself to see the light and hope of life.
He smiled and made a "kiss" emoticon:
"I will work hard!"
From now on, smile.
From now on, do not blame yourself or feel powerless, and work hard towards your goals.
From now on, facing the sea, spring flowers are blooming.
At this time, he felt that his heart was clear, and he also made a decision on another matter. He called up his address book and called Chairman Wei Renjie Wei.
"Hey, Xiaolou, have you returned to Xiushan?" Wei Renjie said with a smile.
"Yes, you still have to go back to work in the martial arts gym. You can't just take someone else's salary in vain." Lou Cheng said politely and went straight to the point, "Chairman, I can help guide the special training, but it can only be one day a week.
You also know that it is impossible for me to teach them the martial arts of the sect, so I can only do some coaching and training, one day a week is more than enough."
Born here, I still have deep feelings for this mountain, water, and city, and I still hope to do something for my hometown if I can.
Wei Renjie said happily: "Okay, okay, one day is enough. Just stand there and they will have an example."
Today is different from the past. Lou Cheng is the number one young martial artist in the province!
Lou Cheng hung up the phone and told Yan Zheke about this. His heart gradually became calm and peaceful. Just like the night outside the window, there were lights in the deep darkness.
Tomorrow I will practice with Keke in the morning and practice hard.
I will go to the martial arts gym tomorrow to lead a VIP class and fulfill my responsibility.
