Zhengyangmen: Don’t date Su Meng
Chapter 12 Finally Have Money
Cheng Jianjun went home with a cold face. Cheng's mother was doing handicrafts. Seeing that her son was not in a good state, she asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing!" Cheng Jianjun replied stiffly, sat down on the stool, and asked Cheng's father:
"Dad, have you finished my work?"
Father Cheng was reading a newspaper. He put down the newspaper and said with a smile, "Why, are you anxious?"
Cheng Jianjun didn't say anything, just looked at the other person.
"Hey, he got humiliated outside again, and he came home to take it out on us."
As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his mother. The Cheng family is the opposite. Father Cheng knows his son very well.
Cheng's mother also nodded in agreement.
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Cheng Jianjun complained a little. He was not that kind of person.
"I have arranged your work, and the target will be released soon." Father Cheng said calmly.
Cheng Jianjun clapped his hands on his thighs, making a crisp sound in excitement, "It works!"
Suddenly, anticipation appeared on his face.
"Dad, what about Su Meng's going to the Children's Palace? Have you arranged it?"
Father Cheng rolled his eyes at his son and said nothing.
Cheng Jianjun was anxious and asked twice, but got no response. He could only look at Cheng's mother for help.
"Mom, please stop watching. Please help me persuade my dad. I have already promised him. If I can't do it, how can I put my face aside?"
Mother Cheng and Father Cheng looked at each other, and when the latter nodded, Mother Cheng said, "Jianjun, don't blame me for acting on my own. Your father is the only one who earns money in the family, and you and your brother have a lot of expenses, so our family is not doing well.
Then, as long as you promise to pay me ten dollars a month when you start working, I will speak for you on this matter."
"No problem, as long as my dad agrees, I will agree to any condition." Cheng Jianjun immediately expressed his opinion.
Mother Cheng nodded to her husband, who smiled and said:
"Okay, the document is in the drawer. It has been stamped by the Education Bureau. You can give it directly to Su Meng. His father has taken care of the rest of the formalities."
Cheng Jianjun suddenly realized what was going on and pointed at the two of them. "Okay, you guys are setting me up. You just want me to pay the money back home. Fine, I'll pay it as soon as I get to work."
"Jianjun, don't blame your mother for playing tricks on you. This is the situation in our family. If you don't help, we will be left with nothing." Cheng's mother advised earnestly.
Cheng Jianjun nodded to show that he understood, and then he ran towards Su Meng's house impatiently with the information bag.
"Your son is doomed when Su Meng is mentioned!" Father Cheng shook his head and sighed.
"Humph, he's not your son." Mother Cheng retorted, and then said seriously: "But do you think he and Su Meng can succeed? I really like Su Meng. He is well-educated and has a good temperament."
"Whether it can be successful or not is not clear yet, but his reckless spirit has come out, which is good."
…………
With the documents sent by Cheng Jianjun, Su Meng quickly started working at the Children's Palace. Three days later, she began riding her bicycle to work. Today, she came home late from get off work and happened to meet the duo at the construction site.
Su Meng is now much calmer and for the first time ever, she takes the initiative to say hello.
"Hey!"
Han Chunming got out of the car, waved Li Chengtao to leave, turned around and looked at Su Meng, "Long time no see, are you going to work?"
"Yes, the Children's Palace." Su Meng pointed at him and said, "I haven't seen you in these days. Today is really rare."
Han Chunming waved his hand, made a "please" gesture, and said jokingly: "They are just hanging out, with a bunch of bad friends, not presentable.
I don’t miss you. You are a teacher now. Look, you even have a bicycle.”
"You're not telling the truth." Su Meng raised her eyebrows slightly, and said word by word, "I know you, as long as you talk in a joking manner, you are definitely lying.
And this bike belongs to my dad, he gave it to me because I have to commute far to work.”
Han Chunming smiles.
"You're taking it too seriously. I'm just talking casually. Let's go."
"Su Meng, Su Meng, wait for me." Cheng Jianjun's voice came from behind.
"Let's go, let's go quickly, don't let him catch up. He has been pestering me these days, it's so annoying." Su Meng couldn't help but quicken his pace.
However, Cheng Jianjun, who had a pair of long legs, suddenly appeared behind them.
"Su Meng, you ride your bike really fast, haha." Cheng Jianjun raised his hand and shouted, as if he had just seen Han Chunming, "Chunming, you are here too, long time no see."
Han Chunming was in no mood to chat at the door. He was tired after a night of work and just wanted to go back to have a meal, wash off the sweat on his body, soak his feet and have a good sleep.
He gets angry with anyone who opposes him.
"You two chat first. I'm leaving first. Uncle Guo, don't open your mouth. Ask the two people behind." Han Chunming ran away as if his butt was on fire.
"I'll ask the person behind me what's going on. This bastard is so dishonest." Uncle Guo was almost cursing.
"Su Meng, why didn't you wait for me to go together this morning? Didn't you see me waving at you?" Cheng Jianjun looked at Su Meng resentfully.
Su Meng shuddered and said quickly:
"I'm going to be late for work, you don't have a bike, and I don't have time to wait for you, so that's it. I'm leaving now."
Pushing the cart, Su Meng left quickly.
Uncle Guo saw Cheng Jianjun standing there in a daze and asked with a smile, "Jianjun, how is your work?"
Cheng Jianjun came back to his senses and shook his head regretfully, "That's it. I'm just a laborer. I do whatever I'm told to do. Today I was just cleaning the piano."
Uncle Guo wanted to ask a few more questions, but Cheng Jianjun was very anxious and left immediately.
When he got home, the first thing he said was, "Dad, your bicycle is a bit old, why don't you buy a new one?"
"Give me money to buy a new car!" Cheng's father glared at him.
Cheng Jianjun pulled a chair and sat in front of Cheng's father. He winked and whispered, "Dad, that bike is not worthy of your status now. You will lose face if you ride it out. Let's..."
[Pah~]
Mother Cheng put down the plate in her hand, looked at Cheng Jianjun sternly, and scolded him:
"Jianjun, I know you are just jealous of Su Meng being able to ride a bike to work, but your dad's bike is very useful to him. He can't go to work without a bike. Don't even think about it."
Cheng Jianjun was like a deflated balloon, responding weakly.
In an instant he thought of something and a smile appeared on his face.
"Mom, I don't need you to pay for it. If I can buy a second-hand bicycle without any effort, I won't have to hand over my salary this month!"
Seeing Cheng Jianjun's confident look, Cheng's mother and husband exchanged glances and asked suspiciously, "Really?"
"Just take a look!"
Cheng Jianjun spoke with a solemn oath, just reminding his mother to abide by the agreement between them.
…………
"Xiao Wuzi, what have you been busy with these days? You are covered in dust every day." Han's mother added hot water to Han Chunming and reached out to wipe his back, but was rejected by Han Chunming.
He was not used to having others rub his back, and would feel uncomfortable even if it was his relatives.
Tear the towel into a thin rope, throw it on your back, grab the two ends, and start pulling it up and down.
Bashi!
"Mom, Taozi's family is renovating their house. I'm just going to help out. It will be done in a few days."
After a quick wash, Han Chunming took off his clothes and went to bed!
…………
In a moment, it was seven days.
Li Chengtao worked hard to load the truck. Even though he was out of breath, he still gritted his teeth and persevered.
"Chun... Chunming, we worked for thirteen days straight and pulled more than nine... hundred trucks. We earned an average of two hundred and twenty yuan each. We made a fortune!
Now... we are rich."
Han Chunming didn't have the energy to make any unnecessary expressions. "Look at how useless you are. You will have plenty of opportunities to make money in the future."
"Okay, then... I'll rely on you, brother, to help me!" Li Chengtao clasped his fists.
"Don't do these meaningless actions, load the truck, finish the work early and go home." Han Chunming straightened his back and saw hurried workers.
Two weeks ago, it was common for two people to push a cart together. They were relaxed and comfortable, and could even joke around and brag to the people around them.
But when the two "Kings of Rolls" Han Chunming and Li Chengtao entered the scene, everything changed!
The originally plain, harmonious and free working environment disappeared in an instant. Everyone wanted to use all their strength to practice the saying "If you can't do shit, do it."
Everyone is getting more and more excited, and the one who is happy is naturally the person in charge.
The money was not spent too much and the assigned work was completed before the deadline. Starting tomorrow, the work here will be suspended for a while. The stones are enough.
…………
"Here, this is your salary for the last four days. Please count the amount to see if it is correct."
Wang handed the money to Li Chengtao, who was stunned for a moment and quickly asked, "Isn't it settled every ten days?"
"Oh, you probably didn't notice that we don't need stones anymore, so the work here will stop from tomorrow, and your wages will naturally be settled." After saying that, he handed another sum of money to Han Chunming.
Han Chunming remained silent.
He had expected this and accepted it quickly.
After parking the car on the side of the road, the two sat on the steps. Li Chengtao sighed: "Such a... good job is gone just like that, alas."
Good job?
Han Chunming disagreed. The physical work in the past two weeks had made him feel extremely exhausted. If he had not been penniless, he would have laid down long ago.
"Money from selling bread this week!"
Han Chunming directly stuffed two yuan and four cents into Li Chengtao's hand, and the latter said nonchalantly: "Let's just forget about it..."
"This is different. No matter what I do in the future, I must calculate money carefully. Otherwise, the least I can do is to become enemies." Han Chunming attaches great importance to this point and practices it every time.
"Let's take a good rest for a few days. I have thought of another way to make money. I will take you with me then."
"Dear brother, you...are really my dear brother, I love...you so much, kiss you!" Li Chengtao rushed towards Han Chunming with bared teeth and pouting lips.
"roll!"
Han Chunming unceremoniously stretched out his hand to push him away, and finally left a piece of advice: "Taozi, go back and put all the money away. You will need start-up capital later. If you don't have money, I won't take you with me!"
“Don’t worry…!”
Li Chengtao patted his chest and assured.
