Chapter 33 Don't Forget Rich and Noble
Early the next morning, Chu Fengping hurried to the hospital to pay the surgery fee, then went to the ward to visit his mother, who had been tortured to the point of becoming emaciated by the illness, and then got on the bus back to his hometown.
After his mother has finished the operation, she will definitely need someone to take care of her. He has to work and go to the hospital alone, so Chu Fengping plans to go home to inform Chu Zhongren about the operation, and take him to City A by the way.
Very helpful.
The mountain road was rugged. Although Chu Fengping set out from home early in the morning, it was already noon when he arrived at his door.
"Dad, I'm back! You...uh?"
Chu Fengping opened the door to his yard, and his words were choked in his throat before he could finish speaking.
The sight before me was really unexpected.
There were three large tables set up in the small yard, and each table was crowded with people. Whether they knew each other or not, all the aunts and wives in the village came to the Chu family to be guests and drank carelessly.
Tea and wine, not to mention how lively it is.
With a smile on his face, Chu Zhongren was busy: "Hey, Fengping is back? Come on, come on, help me, catch two chickens, kill them and eat them!" After a pause, he said to himself again, "
No, I’m afraid two won’t be enough, let’s have four!”
"No? Dad? What's going on?"
It’s not the New Year, nor is it a holiday, so how come the whole village came to the house for a meeting!
"Hey, when the folks in the village see that you are promising, they all say that I have been suffering for most of my life and my luck has finally arrived. Why don't I rush to congratulate you!" Chu Zhongren said while raising his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead.
He was completely unaware that he had been treated as a free meal ticket by the villagers.
It turned out that the story of Chu Fengping taking out a huge amount of savings and fighting off the gangsters who came to look for trouble spread like wildfire, becoming more and more outrageous. In less than half a day, his image in the eyes of the villagers changed from being naked to being naked.
A gangster who climbed trees and fished for fish evolved into a successful person making millions a month.
So, the shameless people who wanted to take advantage of the situation came in unison.
"Hey, isn't this our Fengping?!" A certain fat woman who was feasting on food spotted Chu Fengping with sharp eyes. She quickly put down the chicken drumstick in her hand, stood up and came to him in three steps and two steps, with an attitude that could be called affectionate.
, "I haven't seen you for so long. I really miss you, Sister Li!"
Saying that, Sister Li opened her arms and wanted to give Chu Fengping a loving hug.
Chu Fengping quickly turned aside to avoid it.
Damn it! Who is this person? Why doesn’t he have any impression at all?
Not only Sister Li, but also strangers who had never met each other came up one after another. Chu Fengping dealt with it awkwardly, just wanting to find a crack in the ground to slip in and never come out again.
Their words are very similar, and the central meaning can be perfectly summed up in six words: No matter how rich or noble you are, don’t forget each other.
One glass after another of wine was brought to Chu Fengping and Chu Zhongren. Chu Fengping drank a few symbolic drinks and then politely declined the others because he was not a drinker. However, Chu Zhongren was an honest man. As long as someone asked him
If you offer a toast, he will definitely be bored without saying a word, and he will be completely drunk after half an hour.
Seeing that the situation was gradually developing in an uncontrollable direction, Chu Fengping was cruel and politely invited the villagers away on the excuse that "my father is old and in poor health and needs to rest."
Chu Zhongren's face was red, and his mouth smelled strongly of alcohol. With Chu Fengping's support, he happily waved goodbye to the leaving villagers: "Slow down, everyone, go slowly, come and play often when you have time!"
There are still several jars of fine daughter's red buried under the trees in my backyard!"
"Okay, dad, stop talking! Go inside and have a rest. I'll make you a bowl of hangover soup."
Chu Fengping looked unkind, shook his head helplessly and sighed.
He's killing chickens and getting wine, so why should he take out his heart and lungs like this?
As long as they are not blind, anyone can see that these guys are not really here to congratulate them, but they want to get a share of the pie out of flattery! I think my mother was seriously ill and dying.
At that time, these people closed their doors one by one, either crying about poverty or pretending that no one was at home. They were completely different from the enthusiastic appearance just now.
While helping Chu Zhongren to walk into the bedroom, Chu Fengping frowned and thought. The more he thought about it, the colder his expression became. He sneered disdainfully: "The Chu family has always repaid every drop of kindness, but this is my money."
It’s not brought by the strong wind, huh? Anyway, except for a few people who really care about our Chu family, no one else can even think of getting any benefit from me!”
"You bastard, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Although Chu Zhongren was very drunk, he still understood Chu Fengping's words and immediately became unhappy and scolded him sharply.
"Remember when our Chu family... hiccup, when we first moved into the village, everyone helped a lot! Look, see if that chair is there. Uncle Zhang next door helped cut the wood to make it, and this wall is at the head of the village.
Lao Li's family bought the putty from the city for help... Hiccup, the neighbors are all good people, and they should help and support each other."
When you first moved into the village?
Chu Fengping keenly captured the key point - in his impression, the Chu family has lived here for generations, so how could there be such a thing as "moving"?
"Dad, are we not locals?"
He asked curiously, and while he was talking, the father and son had already walked to the bedroom.
Chu Zhongren lay down on the bed carelessly, with his whole body in the shape of "big", and nodded randomly: "Yes, yes, the Chu family... moved to the village from my grandfather's generation..." He was already drunk.
His consciousness gradually became confused, his voice became softer as he spoke, and his words became less clear.
"Then where are we from before?"
"Huh...huh..."
The only answer Chu Fengping received was purring.
Chu Fengping choked up and swallowed the unspoken questions back into his stomach. He silently helped Chu Zhongren take off his clothes and shoes, then covered him with a quilt before leaving the bedroom.
Chu Zhongren was not a good drinker, so he was so drunk by the villagers that he fell asleep until the next morning.
The morning sun slowly rose from the horizon. Chu Fengping got up early, washed up, and prepared to pack his luggage and return to City A. According to Dr. Li, his mother can have surgery today, and he must rush back as soon as possible to stay at the hospital.
Only by his mother's side. As for Chu Zhongren... Chu Fengping couldn't help but frowned in worry. He had been drunk all day, should he wake up?
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a rustling sound in the bedroom.
The hangover made Chu Zhongren's head hurt. Chu Fengping quickly brought the sobering soup that he had prepared long ago: "Dad, come and drink some. After drinking, let's go to City A together. Mom is going to have an operation."
As soon as he heard the word surgery, Chu Zhongren immediately widened his eyes and became energetic: "Really?"
