After the topic of borrowing money, the atmosphere suddenly cooled down, and Zhang Xingwen stopped asking Zhang Zhong about his work.
After chatting about some other things, the atmosphere became lively again.
Zhang Zhong was also more relaxed, just sitting next to them and watching them chat.
Pengpeng was lying on the sofa watching TV from beginning to end. She didn't seem to care at all what the adults said, and she didn't bother Zhang Zhong like usual.
After listening for a while, Zhang Zhong felt a little bored, so he got up and left and went to the kitchen to help his mother prepare dinner.
With so many people and a table of food, she would definitely be too busy by herself. The two sisters-in-law had no intention of moving over to help. As a son, Zhang Zhong should come over to relieve his mother's pressure.
"What are you doing here? Go chat with them. There's nothing you can do to help here." Hu Huifang was frying fish and waved to Zhang Zhong while holding a spatula.
Zhang Chong smiled and said nothing, but picked up the garlic and started peeling it.
"I can still do some odd jobs, but I can't understand what uncle and the others are talking about. Just let dad accompany them."
"Is there anything you don't understand? It's either the Zhang family or the Li family. I think you don't want to hear it. Your uncle's words are not morally good. His words can kill people. You are too young to listen, so don't be angry. From the left.
If it goes in the ear, just come out through the right ear, don't make it difficult for your dad."
"Yeah, I got it."
Zhang Zhong lowered his head and carefully peeled the garlic, but he was laughing a little in his heart. After all, it was Comrade Hu Huifang who was easily angry.
Uncle, I won't be angry at all if they say anything.
Even if he was disgusted by what he said about borrowing money just now, it was because he didn't want to hear him talking about himself anymore, it was too noisy.
People are different. When Peng Peng talks, even if she says ten thousand or one hundred thousand words, Zhang Zhong won't even frown, but he doesn't want to listen to a word of his uncle Zhang Xingwen's words.
After Zhang Zhong went to the kitchen, he became the talk of the town again.
"Second brother, your Chongzi seems to have changed. I remember he was not like this before." The third aunt said.
Zhang Xingjun was stunned, "No, isn't he always like this?"
The third aunt shook her head, "No, he never spoke as slowly and leisurely before."
The uncle also said, "Well, and he rarely spoke before, and he didn't say much when asked about anything."
"After all, she is twenty-eight. How old is her daughter? She can still be the same as before."
Everyone nodded and looked at Pengpeng lying on the sofa. Perhaps the root cause of Zhang Zhong's change lies in this girl.
"When Chongzi was here just now, I had nothing to say out of concern for his face. I'll tell you between our brothers. He has been awake for more than a month. He needs to go out and adapt to society. What's going on if he stays at home all the time.
As a grown man, if you don’t go out and make money to support your family, you will be ruined sooner or later.”
Zhang Xingjun said quickly, "No, no, although he hasn't gone out, he has been working online. I heard that the income is pretty good."
Not wanting others to say his son was useless, Zhang Xingjun said a few words for Zhang Zhong.
However, Zhang Xingwen looked unconvinced, "Just listen to his lies. He has just woken up. How much money can you make online?"
"He wasn't lying. He was quite serious. He said he could earn more than 20,000 yuan a month."
More than 20,000 a month!
Everyone was stunned. What is the concept of more than 20,000 a month?
Zhang Xingwen's son Zhang Yu earns over 10,000 yuan a month, which they all think is a big deal.
After all, Jiangyang is a second- and fifth-tier city, with a per capita salary of only over 4,000, and those with a monthly salary exceeding 8,000 are in the minority.
It should be said that Zhang Yu does not earn more than 10,000 yuan a month. After all, he is a new employee. His salary in the company is only 6,000 to 7,000 yuan a month. He just took some private work last month, which adds up to more than 10,000 yuan, so it is said that
That’s more than 10,000 a month.
It's just that private work doesn't happen every day. His skills are average and he can't take on too many jobs, so normally, he earns an average of seven to eight thousand a month.
Is there anyone in Jiangyang City who gets a salary of 20,000 yuan? Unless he is a boss.
This is what Zhang Xingwen and others think. After all, the people they come into contact with are all ordinary working-class people, not to mention those entrepreneurs, and they have never come into contact with even Jinling.
What Zhang Yu was thinking about was that the head of their department, who had been working in IT for more than ten years, was already a big deal. He only only paid 20,000 yuan a month, and that was before tax...
His first reaction was not how powerful his cousin was, but that his second uncle was bragging. Speaking of working online, it was possible. He himself took private jobs online, but with Zhang Zhong's level five years ago, it was simply impossible.
When I get a big job, I do some small jobs, and two or three thousand a month is enough.
"Boy, do you believe this? Twenty thousand dollars. How much money can you make by opening a shop and running it all day long? He makes twenty thousand dollars by squatting at home?" the uncle said.
"Yes, second brother, you want your child to be well, we all understand, but don't amuse us." Third Aunt clapped her hands and laughed, looking at her as if she had heard a big joke.
Seeing that they didn't believe it, Zhang Xingjun became a little anxious, "I'm serious, my son really told me that. He has never lied since he was a child, and he will not use this matter to deceive me or his mother."
"Second brother, please stop teasing us. Just now Chongzi said he was worried about Pengpeng's tuition. He can really earn more than 20,000 yuan. Do you have these 9,000 yuan?"
Yes, everyone suddenly remembered what happened just now. Isn't this self-defeating? I just said it was difficult to pay for tuition, and now I say 20,000 a month. This is a lie.
"What he just said -" Zhang Xingjun suddenly stopped mid-sentence. It can't be said that his son just said that deliberately to silence them.
"Anyway, I believe in my son." Zhang Xingjun said in a buzzing voice.
"Second brother, it's useless for you to believe it. Will you be able to conjure up twenty thousand yuan by then?"
The movement in the living room alerted Zhang Zhong. His mother put down the kitchen knife and was about to go out to argue with them, but Zhang Zhong stopped her.
"Don't be impulsive, I'll go take a look."
The voice was very soft, but it had an unquestionable power. Hu Huifang paused, and really stood there as if he had been cast a restraining spell.
Zhang Zhong walked out of the kitchen, his mouth pursed and his brows slightly furrowed. If Zhang Zhong's subordinates on Earth saw his expression, they would definitely know something was wrong, because it was a precursor to going crazy.
Long You Nilin, and Zhang Zhong's Nilin were his parents and Peng Peng. No matter how they mocked or humiliated him, he could laugh it off, but doing this to his father over and over again made him really angry.
.
"Uncle."
Zhang Zhong called out coldly.
Everyone looked over.
"I just talked about borrowing money just because I wanted you to say less. I thought you would be able to understand it at such an old age, but I didn't expect that I overestimated you and you didn't understand it at all. One
It's true that I make 20,000 yuan a month, but I don't need to prove anything to you. Speaking of which, it has nothing to do with you. Do you think I'm right? Everyone came over for dinner today. My parents are very happy.
, I hope everyone will be more restrained, and if you make people unhappy, please hold it in your stomach first, and wait until you walk out of this door before talking about it."
