"I'm just messing with you," the old man hurriedly pulled Li Zhaokun back. He was afraid that if Li He found out, he would be embarrassed.
He didn't expect Li Zhaokun to be so stupid.
The people around them laughed even louder.
These old women were idlers. If you wanted to say that they had evil intentions, they might not have any. In short, they always wanted to show off their superiority in front of the country people. There were also some who were pure. Li He's family lived in such a big house, and they had long been hated by others. In Beijing, housing was scarce, and everyone had their own hole. Other families lived together, but why did the Li family live in such a big house?
Li He was writing a thesis in the central room. When he saw Li Zhaokun coming back in a huff, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Zhaokun didn't say anything because he was worried about his reputation. In the past two years in the country, everyone had been flattering him, so he didn't feel embarrassed. He cursed, "City people are really bad."
Li He was happy. He thought that Li Zhaokun was tired of this place, so he took the opportunity to ask, "How about I send you back? I'll buy you a train ticket in the afternoon. Mom is worried about you."
"Are you in such a hurry to chase me away?" Although Li Zhaokun was angry, he didn't want to leave. In the past, he would sleep under bridges or in parks with a bunch of beggars in the city. Even if he had some spare money, he would stay in a hotel, but it wasn't as good as Li He's place.
"No, you've been wandering around for the past few days. People will know. If they report you, won't the police come?" Li He couldn't persuade him, so he could only scare him.
Li Zhaokun thought about it. In the past, he didn't have a fixed residence, so the police couldn't stop him. Now that he was staying at his son's place, he would be stopped immediately. He stood up and said hurriedly, "No, I have to go."
"Where?"
"Lend me some money. I'll go to the south. The security there isn't tight."
Li He said, "Why are you going to the South? You don't even have a job, aren't you just wasting your time? "
"Why can't I do business and earn money?"
Li He really didn't know what Li Zhaokun was thinking, but he still patiently said, "Think about how many years you've been doing business. For as long as I can remember, when were you at home? Now that the conditions are better, I don't lack you to eat or drink. Can't you just rest at home? "
"That's because the government controlled my business in the past. Now, they don't care anymore. How do you know that I can't make money? I'm just short of capital!" Li Zhaokun seemed to have touched on Li Zhaokun's sore spot, as he shouted at Li He loudly.
"Aren't you just short of money? If you're willing to return to your hometown, I'll give you money every month. What do you think? " Li He directly threw out his conditions. He wouldn't understand it with his own father.
Hearing that his son was going to give him money, Li Zhaokun perked up. "How much?"
"Tell me first, are you going back or not? If you agree, we'll talk about the price. "Li He was afraid that Li Zhaokun didn't hear the conditions clearly, so he changed the topic. He would only give him money if he went back.
"Do you think I'm a beggar?" Li Zhaokun wasn't someone to be trifled with either.
The conversation between the father and son ended on an unhappy note.
After a few more days, Li Zhaokun really couldn't eat noodles anymore. He missed the salted vegetables and stir-fried meat made by his mother at home. He also got drunk every day at home. Although he didn't have much money to spend, it was delicious.
At Li He's place, other than a few trips to the restaurant in the first few days, he ate noodles every day. His taste buds were getting bland. What was worse was that he didn't have any alcohol. Without alcohol, nothing tasted good.
When it was almost lunchtime, he said to Li He, "Let's go to a restaurant."
Li He was busy writing his thesis, so he didn't even raise his head. "Last time, I bought clothes for you, and it cost more than 200 yuan. I don't have enough money to go to a restaurant. My salary is so low."
He then used his fingers to calculate how much he spent to buy a house after graduation and how much money his family sent him.
After some calculations, it was almost 30,000 yuan. Li Zhaokun was a little surprised. "Why did you spend so much?"
"Our house and Third Brother's house were built at around 5,000 to 6,000 yuan. Do the math, right? If it weren't for the money I earned from selling eels, I wouldn't have been able to survive with my current salary. "Li He wanted to lower Li Zhaokun's expectations and not ask for too much." That's why I let you go home. Right now, only I still have money. "
"Then give me 2 yuan. I'll go buy a bottle of wine. I haven't had a drink in a long time. Do you have 2 yuan?"
He had already asked Li He to store the alcohol in the basement. He wanted to keep Li Zhaokun in this manner until he couldn't take it anymore. Li Zhaokun took out a handful of change from his pocket. "Why don't you count it? I still have three dollars left. This is all I have. If I buy the alcohol, we won't even have breakfast tomorrow."
Less than half a month later, Li Zhaokun finally couldn't take it anymore. Although the city was good, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't eat or drink well. His mouth was on fire. He asked Li He, "How much money will you give me if I go home?"
Li He couldn't take it anymore. Not only Li Zhaokun couldn't take it anymore, but even he couldn't hold it in. He hadn't seen meat for half a month. Who could take it?
"I'll buy you a ticket to the provincial capital. I'll also give you the bus fare from the provincial capital to the county."
Li Zhaokun was anxious. "Didn't you say you would give me more money? That's all?"
"I'll have to borrow money from someone to buy you a train ticket. I can only get my salary after school starts. As long as you go home, I'll send you 15 yuan every month. How about that? " Li He had already entered the role of a poor person. He had a tight grip on Li Zhaokun's money. Other than going home, he had nowhere else to go.
"Then you can borrow more from someone else and give it to me all at once."
"We're all getting paid to live. Who has so much money to lend me all at once?"
Li Zhaokun heard this and gave up. "Since you want to send me money, I'll give you 30 yuan a month. What's enough for 15 yuan?"
"Fine." Li He agreed to Li Zhaokun's request as long as he was willing to go home.
Li He sighed. His father had been like this for two lifetimes. He didn't know how to coax him, but he knew how to lie to him. No wonder he couldn't do business for so many years.
He went out and called Little Wei to buy a train ticket. In the end, he bought the ticket for that night. Li He told Little Wei to go as soon as possible, and Little Wei took it seriously.
In the afternoon, Li He rode his motorcycle to the department store and bought two big bags of food and necessities for Li Zhaokun.
He sent Li Zhaokun to the train station and gave him two yuan. Li Zhaokun said, "I'm hungry on the way. I even ate from the lunch box. How can two yuan be enough?"
Li He purposely went through a few pockets and found two yuan. "Four yuan in total should be enough, right?"
Li Zhaokun sighed. His son didn't have any extra food either!
