Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

Chapter 10: The Bad Man in the Period Literature (10)

To be honest, this was the first time Zhang Ni saw Chen Xuyan look so serious. Usually, no matter what he did, he looked relaxed, and even when he spoke, he would not deliberately emphasize his tone because of something.

However, Zhang Ni also wanted to know what he was going to say. He was going to Beijing to study, and she and her son would definitely stay at home. He would definitely talk about how to settle them.

"I have some money here." Chen Xuyan handed the money wrapped in a cloth bag to Zhang Ni. The total amount was one thousand two hundred, of which one thousand was the money for buying a job, and the other two hundred was the subsidy given to educated youth who went to the countryside at that time.

He put it together and never spent it.

Zhang Ni opened the bag and roughly counted it, feeling a bit incredulous. How could there be so much money? Even if she had collected all of Chen Xuyan's royalties and added her own small contribution, it would still only be a third of the total. Where did all this money come from? He had so much money in the first place, but why hadn't he told her?

Although Zhang Ni had thousands of questions in her mind, she opened her mouth but did not say anything, just looking at Chen Xuyan quietly.

Chen Xuyan, of course, understood her expression and had no intention of hiding anything. However, this result was also within his expectations. As long as Zhang Ni's opinion of him was deeply rooted in her heart, she would naturally not think that he was intentionally concealing the truth, but rather the original owner.

So he thoroughly explained the original owner's situation and family circumstances from the very beginning, how his classmates found him a job but he was worried about not being able to keep it, and why Chen's parents didn't send him a penny.

He did not elaborate on what exactly happened, although he had the original owner's memories.

Zhang Ni's expression grew more serious as she listened. She hadn't expected city parents to be like this, too. They were just as partial. Chen Xuyan wasn't one to complain, so for him to say this, Zhang Ni naturally assumed his parents must have done something even more outrageous.

Chen Xuyan was treated so coldly that it was no wonder he didn't want to spend the money at all costs. It was because he was too disappointed with that family.

"I understand." Zhang Ni nodded. According to her personality, she should have caused a big fuss in Heaven long ago.

When she and Chen Xuyan first got married, he was in poor health and had spent all his money. Now it seemed that he had been heartbroken because his parents didn't support him in anything he did and didn't care about his life or death. After finally getting married in the countryside, his parents not only didn't support him but also threatened that he would never return home. If it were her, she would have been heartbroken long ago.

But even though it was so difficult, he refused to use the money.

Seeing Zhang Ni's increasingly strange expression, obviously she had no idea what she was thinking about, he was just about to continue speaking.

"Dad, I understand everything, you don't have to say it. But it would be a waste if we don't use this money. I was just worried that you didn't have enough money for school, so now it's no problem at all." Zhang Ni obviously didn't want to touch on his sad things anymore.

"I plan to take you there with me and rent a house there," said Chen Xuyan.

"Take us all over there?" Zhang Ni felt it was a little bit unreal. She had never thought about leaving home. She felt a little uneasy even going to the city, let alone going to Beijing.

"When the time comes, we'll rent a house. Ayan will be studying in Beijing, and you take care of him while I support you two." There is no school district house yet, so I'll buy one when I have more money.

At this moment, Zhang Ni thought a lot. She wondered if she had enough money, and what she would do with the house she had built on the land she had left.

But she didn't think it was impossible. She was relying on him for support. She originally wanted him to come back during the holidays, but now she really had a lot to think about.

"Don't think too much. It's still early. I still have to go home."

"I'll go with you." Zhang Ni was afraid that he would suffer a loss.

"It's okay, I won't stay long. I'll visit your teachers and classmates and bring you some things." His home is in Shanghai, and he always has a lot of fashionable things.

But apart from these, there is also an excuse to take out the ticket in hand, and going out can be said to have been earned.

"We don't want anything. Don't spend money recklessly. When we go to Beijing, there will be plenty of places to spend money." If the money is not enough, she will definitely not live off it. She will find a job and clean the toilets. She will definitely not cause trouble for him.

"When will you go back?" Zhang Ni was curious.

"I'm going to see the village chief tomorrow to get a letter of introduction. The day after tomorrow morning, I'll go early and come back early." Chen Xuyan didn't want to stay in Shanghai for a long time, so he planned to take his family to Beijing early.

In a big city, where money is scarce, she heard that prices are several times more expensive. When the money is not enough, she will take her son home and wait until he makes a name for himself and finds a job. It will not be too late to go back.

As long as he doesn't become ungrateful, what does suffering matter?

Without thinking too long, Zhang Ni had imagined everything in her mind.

Chen Xuyan chatted with her for a while, mainly to ease her anxiety and explained the pros and cons to her. She was unfamiliar with Beijing, but when she heard Chen Xuyan start talking, she found it very interesting, so she took the initiative to ask a lot of questions.

Chen Jianyan, who had just finished his homework, saw the two chatting. They both looked happy yet a little sad, and he couldn't help but feel curious. What were they talking about?

"Mom, I'm going out to play for a while." Chen Jianyan didn't think too much about it. He was anxious to go out and play with Zhang Zhuangzhuang. He had a lot of homework today, and he didn't know if Zhang Zhuangzhuang had finished it. But it didn't matter, because tomorrow was the day off.

"Come here." Chen Xuyan waved.

"What's wrong, Dad?" Chen Jianyan walked over with a slingshot in his hand.

"Forget it, go take a shower first. The water is already hot. I'll talk to him." Zhang Ni pushed Chen Xuyan. If she let him talk to the child, the child would probably ask questions all night long. Would he still want to rest? She said that he couldn't sleep well on the train, so he must get a good rest in the next two days.

"Okay." Chen Xuyan took the clothes and turned to leave.

"What's wrong, Mom?" Chen Jianyan was a little confused. What exactly happened? It had only been a while.

"Your dad is taking us to Beijing. In a couple of days he's going back to your grandparents', ugh, his parents' house."

"Ah? We're going too? Are we moving?" Chen Jianyan was both excited and a little scared.

"Yes." Zhang Ni touched his head.

"When are we leaving?"

"Soon, we'll leave after the grain is harvested in a few days. But it's not certain. It depends on what your father says."

"Then I'll go ask Dad." Chen Jianyan was about to turn around when he was pulled back by Zhang Ni.

"Don't bother your dad. He will have to travel hard. Wait for him to come back in a few days and then ask him." Zhang Ni knew that this kid couldn't hold back.

"Okay then." But he could just ask secretly tomorrow when his mother is not around. Chen Jianyan held back when he thought of this.

"Okay, don't you want to go out and play? Have fun these few days. Your dad said there are too many cars in Beijing, and you won't have anywhere to have fun." This is how it is in a big city. Zhang Ni thinks it's actually pretty good if the whole family is in the countryside.

However, if I get through it, my husband and children will have a better future.
