Chapter 3632: A poor family is also a family (3 more)
Zheng Wen also noticed something was wrong with her parents and couldn't help but ask.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
"Nothing, nothing, how can you be unhappy!"
Lu Jinlong said quickly.
Shen Yu also said: "Yes, we finally reunited as a family, how could Mom be unhappy?"
"But--"
Zheng Wen wanted to say something else, but Tang Xiaobao turned her around, and Zheng Wen stopped talking.
After a while, the car got off the highway, but instead of entering the city, it headed towards the suburbs.
Yanjing is the capital of the Huaxia Kingdom, but there is a gap between the rich and the poor in any city in the Huaxia Kingdom, and this is no exception.
Everything in front of me was incompatible with the urban area. There were fewer and fewer high-rise buildings and the roads were getting worse and worse. Finally, the car stopped in a residential area.
This place is already outside the Sixth Ring Road. Although it is not in the suburbs, it is not prosperous either.
Tang Xiaobao took the initiative to pay the fare. Lu Jinlong and his wife looked at each other and turned red.
"Let's go home."
Shen Yu held Zheng Wen's arm with a confused look on her face.
"Mom, are you unhappy that I'm back?"
Zheng Wen frowned.
Walking in the community, she didn't have any thoughts because of the dilapidation of the community. What she was thinking about was the change in her parents' expressions.
Shen Yu was startled, tightened her daughter's arm, and said: "How could it be possible? You are my biological daughter. We have all been indebted to you for the past twenty years. To be honest, your father and I have already talked
After that, if you stay in the Zheng family, no matter how reluctant we are to leave, we can understand. After all, our family's conditions in Yanjing are not very good, and we are afraid that you will be wronged, so we are so entangled now, ugh!
"
"Mom, what are you talking about? A son doesn't think his mother is ugly, and a dog doesn't think the family is poor. Am I not even as good as a dog?"
Zheng Wen said sternly: "No matter how bad the conditions are, this is my home. Besides, the future is not unchangeable. Don't worry, I have everything with you, and I will make you live a good life."
"Hey, when you say that, Dad feels so ashamed."
Lu Jinlong sighed: "As a man, I can't support this family. I'm really useless."
Tang Xiaobao said on the side: "Uncle,
What you are saying is wrong. I heard Zheng Wen say it. If it weren’t for all these years, you have never given up looking for her, your family would not be poor. Moreover, without your persistence, your family would not be reunited.
, so I don’t blame you for this matter. Really, don’t think too much about it. I think Zheng Wen won’t dislike her family being poor.”
"Well, parents, you are overthinking."
Zheng Wen also said repeatedly.
"Hey, I hope you can accept it later."
Lu Jinlong shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Soon, I came to a residential building.
Tang Xiaobao and Zheng Wen both noticed that the houses in this community are not only old, they look like houses from the 1980s, but the key is that they are not large.
The buildings here have the same layout, all six stories high, just like the houses allocated to employees by state-owned enterprises in the past.
In fact it is so.
When they entered Lu Jinlong's house, although Tang Xiaobao and Zheng Wen were mentally prepared, they were still shocked in the end.
It is actually a one-bedroom and one-living house.
Apart from an old-fashioned TV and a refrigerator, there are almost no electrical appliances in the house. Oh, if electric fans are included, that is another matter.
The living room is not big, probably only thirty square meters, but in one corner, it is separated by a curtain. There is a small room there, and you can vaguely see the bed and furniture inside. This living room is even smaller, only about ten square meters.
square.
"Dad, Mom, this is where you usually live?"
Zheng Wen frowned.
For her, she has never been to such a bad place.
The Zheng family is one of the four major families in Jiangnan City. They have a large business and a lot of wealth. She has been used to living a life of fine clothes and fine food since she was a child. But when she first came here, she was really not used to it.
And the most practical question on her mind right now is, how to sleep?
So, she subconsciously asked: "Don't I have a younger brother? How can you sleep? This house is too small."
Tang Xiaobao coughed a few times and reminded her not to talk nonsense.
Fortunately, Zheng Wen reacted quickly. Seeing the shameful expressions on the faces of Lu Jinlong and his wife, she quickly explained: "Mom and Dad, don't think too much. I don't mean to dislike you. Otherwise, I won't be with you."
I'm back home. Don't think that I can't live in poverty. I just feel sorry for you.
Over the years, the living conditions have been so poor, and you still haven’t given up looking for me. I’m sorry, it’s me who has dragged you down.”
As she spoke, her eye circles turned red again.
Shen Yu quickly pulled her to sit on the shabby sofa and said with red eyes: "Daughter, you are so sensible. Yes, this place is very simple, but fortunately there is no rent. This is your aunt's former factory
The house we were allocated was said to be demolished, but after several years of talk, no construction has started.
, so it’s been almost ten years since we moved here and our rent has never been collected. It’s fine now. I finally found you. It will get better gradually in the future. You and your brother have grown up. From now on, our family of four will
If you work hard, you will definitely be able to buy a house, even if it is in the suburbs!"
It is said that in Yanjing, houses in the suburbs are not cheap.
Every inch of land is valuable.
Obviously, this is just Shen Yu's beautiful wish.
And Lu Jinlong immediately swore: "Daughter, don't worry, after my father resigned from the factory, he developed a unique skill. I know how to barbecue. If I hadn't been trying to find you for so many years, our barbecue stall business would also be good.
Yes, my father will set up a stall to make money every night and find a job during the day. Even if he is exhausted, I will still be happy. I will always support the family. From now on, don’t think about family matters.
"
Then he pointed to the only bedroom here and said: "That is where your brother usually lives. I asked him to move out and sleep on the sofa at night. You will live in the bedroom from now on."
When my daughter comes back, she must live at home.
Of course, Lu Jinlong and his wife want to leave the best to her.
After so many years, I owe you so much.
Zheng Wen sighed, feeling moved but also extremely distressed.
"Mom and Dad, don't think too much. I will take care of this house. I still have a few million in my card. I will go find a house tomorrow. It's not a problem to stay at my aunt's house all the time."
"What, how many millions do you have? Where did this money come from?"
Lu Jinlong and his wife were shocked.
Several million, for them, is an astronomical sum of money. They can't even imagine how much money they would earn from a barbecue stall.
Zheng Wen said a little embarrassedly: "Oh, it's my pocket money, I don't usually use it."
Suddenly, Lu Jinlong and his wife looked at each other with shock and bitterness on their faces.
