Chapter 83: Mining
Chapter 83: Mining
Chen Suling and her husband were preparing to go to the mall with her eldest sister. They were going to bring Tang Jinyu with them, and were looking for him, but they rushed immediately when they heard the news.
Especially Tang Hongjun, when he heard his wife answer the phone and told him that something had happened to Xiaoyu, he was startled and ran in to find his son. He was the first to come in. When he arrived in the living room, he saw the two brothers sitting on the sofa waiting. Tang Hongjun walked over and asked, "Are you all right? What's the matter, are you two injured?"
Xia Ye shook his head, "I'm fine, uncle, it was Xiaoyu that was crying."
Chen Suling immediately went over to look at her son. She checked and saw that her child was not injured. She was slightly relieved, but she felt pain in her heart when she saw him crying, "What's wrong with Xiaoyu? What's wrong?"
Xia Ye had heard his brother say it to him, so when Chen Suling asked, he told her the truth.
Chen Suling couldn't figure out what her second sister-in-law was doing by grabbing that suitcase. She opened her mouth and didn't know what to say, and her eyebrows furrowed.
Xia Ye said: "Auntie, grandma and everyone are all waiting for you. You will know when you go."
Chen Suling stroked her child's head. Tang Jinyu with tears in his eyes, didnt want to cry. He called her mother with his mouth pursed. Chen Suling said, "Baby its okay, stay here with your brother. Mom will go up and ask what's going on."
Chen Qiuguo knew that she was hot-tempered and that she would not tolerate sand to be rubbed into her eyes, so she immediately followed: "I will accompany you, Suling, slow down and wait for me."
(Note: No sands are allowed to be rubbed into the eye.; be offensive to the eye about unreasonable thing)
The two of them hurried up, and Tang Hongjun, who was behind them, bent over to wipe the tears from his son's face, and said distressingly: "Xiaoyu dont cry anymore."
Xia Ye asked him: "Uncle, shall we go now?"
Tang Hongjun sighed. He was also very angry. He had never seen an adult steal from a child. But even if he thought so in his heart, he shook his head and said, "If it werent for todays matter, it wouldve been okay to go, but now Im afraid that the old lady will embarrass your aunt, and would not let her go. He glanced at the top of the stairs. Then, he slowed down and said to his child, "Xiaoyu wait here, dad will accompany mom to go up there, and I will come back to pick you up soon."
The adults in the family went up, Xia Ye still sat on the sofa holding the little guy, Tang Jinyu sat on his lap, lying in his arms and slowly stopped crying, but from time to time he hiccuped, voicing out his grievances.
Xia Ye chatted with him a few words, and the little guy gave him different responses.
"I bite very lightly"
"Do you have any reason to bite?" Xia Ye wiped the tears from his face with his thumb, and he was crying like a tabby cat just now.
"My aunt touched my accordion, it doesn't make sense!"
The little guy was so angry that he wanted to cry again, and Xia Ye immediately became cold, "Hold back your tears."
Tang Jinyu sat on his knees, held back for a while, and his tears did not roll down from his eyes, and he looked even more pitiful.
Xia Ye looked at his tears, sighed, pinched his small neck and rubbed his neck slowly and comforted him: "You can't cry anymore today, what if you get sick again?"
Tang Jinyu nodded, and with a slight movement, big tears rolled down. The little guy worked so hard and didn't make a sound. He only sniffed and didn't cry again, feeling particularly aggrieved.
Xia Ye explained it to him, "Xiaoyu, I'll tell you one last time, at any time, nothing is less important than yourself. What is the saying we usually say?"
"Health comes first." The little guy finished speaking, and was a little unconvinced. "But brother"
"Yes?"
"My accordion." He murmured.
"I gave you a piano," Xia Ye corrected him, "I will give you more in the future. I will give you a new piano every year, baby, I promise you that I will buy you a piano that will last for a lifetime. So If you encounter something like this again, and you lose a piano, come to me, so that you suffer from any losses, okay?
It took a long time for the little guy to nod reluctantly.
Xia Ye coaxed him to talk, the little guy reached out his hand to hug him, and rubbed his head in his arms, "Brother, uncle said that he will get me a new piano next year, since my piano is too small, but I can't bear it."
Xia Ye laughed, his heart softened by what the little guy said just now, and raised his hand to touch his little head and whispered, "I will buy you a new one next year."
"That's different." The little guy muttered, "That is the piano that my brother used before, and it also has your name on it., I have my name next to it as well, and I will keep it by my side for the rest of my life."
Xia Ye was silent for a while, and hugged the little guy in his arms for a few minutes.
Just now, he didn't want the little guy to grow up at all, and even wanted him to remain at such an innocent age and never change the feelings in his heart.
Xia Ye sighed slightly and called his name.
The little guy in his arms moved. He was sensitive to Xia Yes emotions. He poked his head out to look at him. Although his expression was faint as usual, Tang Jinyu still noticed a difference. He touched Xia Yes forehead, and asked him: "Brother, what's the matter with you?"
Xia Ye squeezed his face and said, "I dont want you to grow up, okay."
"I want to grow up, I want to grow up to be as tall as my brother, and as good as my brother. When I grow up, I will study hard and make a lot of money."
Xia Ye smiled and said, "You dont have to do so well, I will support you."
The little guy touched his forehead again, and this time his tone became firmer, "Brother, I will make money! Really, I will make a lot of money in the future, Ill be very good to you. You are very important in my heart, just like The little guy thought for a moment, and said without hesitation, "Just like my father!"
Xia Ye: ""
Tang Jinyu was a little excited, and still promised Xia Ye: "Brother, I will provide you with elderly care!"
Xia Ye squeezed his small neck and asked him to look back, and pointed up the stairs, and said blankly, "Look there, the one on the second floor is your father."
In the guest room on the second floor, the Chen family were all together.
On the original neat floor of the guest room, there was a small suitcase. The zipper on it was violently torn open, revealing the half-old accordion inside. The red lacquer shell was well maintained. It looked old but it has always been well cherished, and it looked good.
Chen Suling stood there with a cold face, and Tang Hongjun was silent by her side.
Chen Qiuguo, who has always been a good person, sighed after seeing the suitcase. She didn't help to speak for her behalf for the first time. She really didn't know what to say, Pei Yun was so devilish, how could she do such a thing?
Grandma Chen sat on the small sofa in the guest room and looked at Pei Yun and said coldly: "You speak, let me hear clearly, what dissatisfactions did you have for the past few years! I dont want to hear that our Chen family values boys over girls, so dont bring this up again
Chen Wenqian wanted to help his wife speak, and grabbed Pei Yun's hand to make her apologize first, but Pei Yun raised her head and looked at the old lady, biting her lips and said: "It's you who is clearly patriarchal!"
Grandma Chen laughed angrily, "Me?"
"Yes, its you." Pei Yun shoved off Chen Wenqian's hand and decided to just say it. She couldn't stop her tears rolling down her eyes. "You were partial to Xiaoyu at the beginning, you favor boys, and you and Dad left something for him. "
"Nonsense!" Grandma Chen was dumbfounded and shivered with anger when she patted the arm of the sofa.
"I'm not talking nonsense! You and Dad are the most partial. When my sister-in-law brought her child back for treatment, you and Dad would give them so much, and pay it back. I saw it with my own eyes that time, my dad left him something, saying, "All my wealth goes to Xiaoyu's body." I remember these words clearly. I haven't said anything for so many years. I know that because Deyun is a girl, you don't want to give it to her, but Deqing is also your grandson. You haven't given him that much, Dad "
Seeing that she would say more, Chen Wenqian grabbed her arm and scolded: "Havent you said enough!
Pei Yun looked at him, saw her husbands bloodshot eyes and the angry expression on his face. Although she didn't say anything, she still couldnt accept, and bit her lip.
"What kind of nonsense are you talking about? When did we give Xiaoyu all our net worth?" Grandma Chen said, "I love Xiaoyu a little bit, but that's because I feel distressed that his body is sick. The two of them have been carrying a sick child for so many years and never abandon him. How bitter it is for the two of them. I am also a mother. I am a girl who has been raising Jiaojiao in the palm of my hand for more than 20 years. I live every day. What day do I see that I am not allowed to use to supplement her a little bit!"
Pei Yun avoided her sight, "You and Dad are at fault first."
"Then you were in the right? What were you doing with Xiaoyu's stuff?"
"I was looking for evidence."
Grandma Chen was so angry that she pressed her chest, and the Chen sisters on the side panicked. Chen Suling rummaged for her pills, and Chen Qiuguo poured water on her. Chen Qiuguo got angry for the first time, even with her good temper, "Pei Yun, do you want to anger my mother, before you give up!"
Chen Wenqian wanted to drag her away, but Pei Yun still looked straight at the old lady. Before she leaves today, she wont leave until she understands what she saw with her own eyes and heard with her own ears
Mr. Chen glanced at her and said, "I did."
With this sentence, the room became quiet.
Pei Yun looked straight over, her lips pursed into a smile, but a stream of tears rolled down first.
Grandma Chen also looked at her husband, she had no idea about it, "Old man, what's the matter, what have you left?"
Old Chen said: "The things I gave to Xiaoyu, you can't find it with him, I have been carrying it with myself for so many years, and I will never leave without it. . Since you asked about it today, no matter what, I will show it to you. "As he said, he carefully rummaged through his inner pocket of his clothes, and took out a kit embroidered with the word "Fu". After a long time, there were only a few tears left behind, but the kit was still intact.
It was the size of a palm, it was a little shabby but still strong, Old Chen opened it, and carefully took out a piece of origami paper inside, as if torn from a book, folded it into a small square with some unreadable characters written on it. The only thing that can be seen is that it was half a piece of paper, and there are torn marks on the edge.
Old Chen asked her to come over to see it more clearly. Pei Jun couldnt understand. She subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to touch it, and was immediately blocked by the old mans hand. He said in a deep voice, You dont know what this is, but you want to take this too?"
For the first time, Pei Yun saw Old Chen speak coldly to her, and was a little timid for a while, and asked, "What is this?"
Old Chen ignored her, looked at the paper for a while, and said solemnly: "When Xiaoyu was over a year old, he almost died from his illness. Suling and her husband brought their child to seek medical advice, and all the doctors persuaded her to give up, saying that this child can't be cured"
That was eight years ago. Chen Suling found an expert, and had a glimmer of hope, but still did not get a word of hope. The doctor only said to stay in this hospital and they would try their best to cure him. She and her husband stayed in the hospital all day and night, and their eyes were red. The next morning, Tang Hongjun stayed guarding in the hospital, but she went out alone.
Old Chen was worried that his daughter would have an accident, so he hurriedly followed.
Chen Suling was really desperate. She didn't know what to do. She sent her child to the hospital, but she didn't dare to stay there and watch him weaken a little bit. She was afraid, afraid that she would completely collapse in the hospital.
There were many temples in Henan, so she went to worship Buddha, and went to every temple, and worshipped with her head down.
There was an old monk who lived in a temple. After doing calculations for her, he only shook his head. After repeated questioning, the other party only gave the sentence "This child cannot be kept by your side" and was sent away.
Chen Suling knelt on the futon and worshipped the Bodhisattva. She was dumbfounded. After a while, tears suddenly came out of her eyes, and she cried in a low voice: "I beg you to be merciful, I beg you, you take my life away, and return my child to me."
How can I rest assured if I don't keep him by my side? If I can't hold him in my arms and kiss him every day, and raise him until he gets older, who can I possibly give him to? How could I?
Chen Suling cried bitterly, depressed at first, and couldn't help crying until her voice became hoarse.
"That's my child."
"The meat that came from my body!"
"My child, my child"
She almost fainted from crying, and Old Chen almost couldnt look anymore, and then wept.
His daughter was the strongest, and was better than her brothers and sisters, and a little more proud, but now she has been polished into this. He couldn't bear it, and after sending his daughter back, he went to find the old monk. They had no hope, so they could only ask for a suggestion.
Xu Shi sincerely moved by the other party. The old monk gave him this sachet as a sustenance for his grandchild to be raised elsewhere, and that he must put it away so that his grandchild can "come back" and be well.
Old Chen didn't know whether it would work, so he could only try it anyway. He had worn it close to his body for a full eight years, and he had never mentioned it to anyone.
The old man put the origami back in the bag, put the precious and important place back in place, and said in a dumb voice: "At that time, the master said, he wanted to ask me to borrow some luck. I'm in business and have always been lucky, and my luck is not so bad. I once promised that as long as I can save this child, they can get as much as they want. So that day I asked for the brocade bag to come back, and said that I wanted to give all my wealth to Xiaoyu."
The Chen family are in business, and the family values these fortunes, but in the face of family affection, Old Chen didn't care at all, and was willing to wear it for eight years.
Chen Suling's eyes were red, and she cried out to her dad.
Old Chen waved his hand and said: "I don't know if the spirit is not working anymore. But Xiaoyu's health is a little better after being discharged from the hospital. I am also happy for him. In the past few years, Suling and Hongjun have taken their child to the hospital. After that hurdle, the doctor said that Xiaoyu would not live to be ten years old, and we were also very afraid."
The old man stroked the place where the kit was placed with his hand, his eyes were red, and his voice trembled, "This is what I left for Xiaoyu, thinking of my daughter, is that so bad? This mother and son have it hard, while as an old man I can do nothing, but cant I use this method?
Pei Yun suddenly raised her hand and slapped herself, crying and knelt down to apologize to the two old people: "Dad and Mom, I was confused, I was blinded. I shouldnt have had thoughts like this, and shouldnt have made trouble today, its all my fault"
Grandma Chen turned around to wipe her tears. The old lady felt uncomfortable and couldn't face her for a while.
Old Chen said to his son: "Wen Qian, pull your wife up, our family does not kneel when we have done something wrong. You two go home and reflect on your own. Don't come over these few days and let your mother take it easy. "
Chen Wenqian agreed in a dumb voice, and he was used to helping Pei Yun, but he only to helped her up, and was longer as close as usual.
Pei Yun followed Chen Wenqian and went downstairs. Chen Wenqian was silent for a long time, and Pei Yun was very regretful now.
When they walked to the living room downstairs, they saw Tang Jinyu. The child was slapped on the arm by Xia Ye, he stood up and walked over and called them.
When Chen Wenqian saw him stop, he felt distressed and guilty, "Good boy, next time uncle will play with you, uncle has something to do, and go back first."
Tang Jinyu stood there and raised his head and said, "Uncle, I'm looking for auntie."
Pei Yun's eyes flushed and avoided his eyes. She was uncomfortable and didn't know how to face this child, "I'm sorry, Xiaoyu, it was aunt's fault just now"
After a while, the child nodded and said, "Well, I forgive you." He paused, and then said, "Auntie, I also apologize to you. I shouldn't have bit your finger. My brother taught me just now. But it was my favorite accordion. It was given to me by my brother. Since hes all grown up now, he doesnt need it anymore, and I wont be able to use it after two years when I grow up, so I have to be careful not to damage it.
The child stood there and said reluctantly, "Auntie, if you want to see it next time, you must ask me first, I can hold it for you to see."
Pei Yun apologized to him incoherently, and said several times I'm sorry, Chen Wenqian saw her struggle, and hurriedly took her away.
As soon as they left the house, Pei Yun cried.
She felt embarrassed. The fog she had kept in her heart for so many years was once lifted. It was completely different from what she thought. She felt that her mind was dirty.
Tang Jinyu sat and talked with Xia Ye in the living room. The little guy cried for a while and was a little hungry. Xia Ye took him to wash his hands and eat something.
Tang Jinyu ate a piece of peanut cake, still thinking about his accordion, and asked Xia Ye in a low voice, "Brother, when can I go up?"
Xia Ye glanced upstairs and whispered softly: "Wait a little longer, you can have another piece, and I will pour you water."
Tang Jinyu ate two pieces of cake obediently, the slice of peanut cake was a bit big, and he couldn't eat the last bit for a long time, but he was too embarrassed to put the leftovers back on the plate. Xia Ye saw this, and took the little guy's hand and took the last bite.
Tang Jinyu looked at him for a long time and asked in a low voice, "Brother, don't you think I am dirty?"
Xia Ye calmly said: "You didn't like to wash your face before, it was a bit dirty, but now it's much better."
"Oh."
The two of them sat in the living room downstairs and waited for a while, only to see the elders walking down from the second floor one after another. Grandma Chen came over and said that she was tired and wanted to rest, and went straight to the bedroom on the first floor. Chen Qiuguo helped her through.
Tang Hongjun came over and picked up his child. Tang Jinyu put his arm around his neck and asked, "Dad, where is my accordion?"
Tang Hongjun kissed him on his forehead, hugged him in his arms to prevent his child from seeing the redness of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Dad will get it for you. Dad will take you to the mall to buy a new suitcase, and get a color that Xiaoyu likes."
"I like the one I have!"
"Okay, let's buy brown ones"
Old Chen called out to his family and said to them: "Hong Jun, you come to the study first, and I have something to say." Xia Ye stopped and planned to wait in the living room. Old Chen saw this and said to him, "Xiaoye, too. It wont be troublesome.
The group went to the study, and Old Chen greeted Tang Jinyu to come over, took out a few documents and a box of ink, and asked him to pick one to press with his small fingerprints.
Chen Suling saw and stopped busy and said, "Dad, don't give it to him, we have everything, we don't need anything."
Old Chen said, "Its not for him. This was originally Xiaoyu's. Didn't Xiaoye give a car to celebrate for him winning today? Xiaoyu is too small to drive, the car cant be left to be wasted. So I'll just give him money and put it in the mine."He had been hesitant to open a new mining area, and he felt that he was too old to be bold, and was just going with the flow. But now he was determined to buy it, in a worst case scenario it would be one loss. He has been safe for many years, and he has forgotten the hard work he had done when he was young.
Old Chen bowed his head and said to Tang Jinyu, "Good treasure, you pick one yourself, and then you will become a shareholder with your grandpa."
Chen Suling said: "Dad, this is too expensive"
Grandpa Chen teased his grandchild and said, "It's not expensive, but isn't this Xiaoyu's car'? It should be converted to grandpa. Grandpa will give you some mines to make money. Let's make a fortune together. If we lose money, Xiaoyu can just take grandpa's car, hahaha!"
Chen Suling and her husband still wanted to persuade, but Old Chen did not listen. The old man was very happy and refused to let them say any more. He only shook his head and said, "I won't suffer, but I can't take advantage of my grandchild."
He set up a few documents for his grandchild to pick up, then raised his head to Xia Ye and said, "Xiaoye, grandpa arranged this, do you have no objection?"
Xia Ye naturally had no opinion. This was equivalent to the old man's exchange for a more valuable property. He nodded and said, "I listen to you."
Tang Jinyu was staring at one of the documents at the moment. The contract terms written on it were very cumbersome, but these were not important. He saw the transferor's name at a glance, and it was Wu Yuanfen.
This name plus the mine was really impressive together.
Tang Jinyu always remembered that he had seen this name on some news, and this person should have a son, Wu Changcai or Wu Facai. In short, the name is auspicious, but it is a bit strange with this surname.
He reached over and flipped it with a small hand, and he saw the name "Wu Facai", and right after that he saw the words "Wu Yuanfen".
Tang Jinyu: "???"
That's right, "Wu Facai " and " Wu Yuanfen ", he remembers the names of these two people together too clearly.
Their father has been digging mountains for 20 years, and his son continued to dig for several years. But less than half a year after it was sold, the mine suddenly came out. More than that, the associated ore was still a precious metal, so luck there was overwhelming.
The father and son were so angry that they had to be hospitalized. The mine owner who bought their mine was very kind, and he took tens of thousands of dollars to treat their illness out of kindness. It was on the news, and Tang Jinyu heard about it before and remembered this clearly.
He remembered that there was a rickety figure beside him, drinking a little wine while saying: "Look, Xiaoyu, this is really good luck. If I had met him, we wouldn't have to worry about your tuition fees!"
What he said at the time seemed to be the first time to not to let the old man touch wine.
He was not well
But who was that person, he only remembered a vague shadow, but couldn't remember.
Old Chen hugged him, looked at his grandchild who was sweating from his head, and was startled, and wiped him: "Is Xiaoyu okay?"
Tang Jinyu shook his head, pointed to the document and said, "Grandpa, I want to buy this."
"You sure?"
"Okay."
Tang Jinyu looked at the previous document. He wanted to buy this, before they would, but they were very far away from the mine.
Perhaps after buying it, he will be able to think of some things and more things that he has forgotten.
This mine was also one of the mines chosen by Old Chen. It was said that he has been losing money for many years, so the price of the other partys offer was very cheap. He held the thumb of his grandchild and pressed a small fingerprint on the last page, and smiled: "Listen to our good treasure, let's buy this first."
Old Chen asked Tang Jinyu to press his fingerprints and called Xia Ye to sign it. He would never take advantage of his grandchildren. The car was in his grandson's name, but Xia Ye should also have a copy of the investor.
Xia Ye went over, held Tang Jinyu's hand and pressed a small fingerprint, and smiled: "Ill give it to Xiaoyu, when I give him the allowance in advance."
Old Chen glanced at him, smiled and agreed.
Tang Hongjun thought the gift was too expensive and wanted to persuade him again, but Old Chen waved his hand to him and said, "Look at you, everything is fine, but you're not as good as Xiaoye. What's the big deal? I'll wait for Xiaoyu to make money in the future. I'm still waiting for him to take care of me! Isn't that right, Xiaoyu?"
Tang Jinyu nodded. He glanced at the file and felt like he saw a golden mountain.
He might really be rich this time.
After finishing their work, Old Chen asked them to go first. Tang Hongjun made an exception today and kept holding him and refused to let his child go. Tang Jinyu was a little embarrassed and laid on his father's shoulder to talk to Xia Ye behind him.
Xia Ye looked at him for a long time, but still couldn't help but raised his hand and squeezed his face.
The little guy blinked and didn't understand why he was attacked.
Xia Ye squeezed him again. It felt good, but he wanted to bully him twice because his hands were itchy. The little guy was being raised by more than one person, and he didn't know what to say.
Tang Hongjun drove with the children at home to find three shopping malls that day, and finally bought a satisfactory case, which was similar to the previous model, but was slightly smaller and softer inside, so he could just put his accordion in place.
There was popcorn and ice-cola downstairs. Xia Ye stood there and bought a cup, picked the smallest cup, only let the boss fill half the amount, and added two or three pieces of ice to with it. He originally planned to pretend to drink for a while and wait for the ice cubes to melt slightly before giving the little guy a sip, but as soon as he took it, Tang Hongjun agreed to let the child drink it.
Happiness came too suddenly, Tang Jinyu held the Coke cup and looked up at his mother, not daring to drink.
Chen Suling touched his little head and said with a smile: "Drink, you can drink a little today."
Tang Jinyu took a big sip while holding the cup, and he simply tried not to be too happy!
After drinking several sips, and secretly inhaling a small piece of ice in his mouth to eat, Tang Jinyu squinted happily, feeling the stimulation of the bubbles in his mouth, tasting it for a while, and then reluctantly handed his cup to towards Xia Ye, "Brother, have some."
Xia Ye spends a lot of time with him, and it was still easy to tell he still wanted some,
He took it and shook it. The little guy was very obedient. He really only drank a little bit, which was not much different from the amount just now. He glanced at the adults in front of him, handed him the Coke, and led his hand behind him. "Drink quickly."
Tang Jinyu: "!!!"
Tang Jinyu immediately seized the opportunity and sipped the straw in his mouth. When he was walking outside with his parents to get in the car, the child had already finished the Coke cup and his little face showed his satisfaction!
Xia Ye took him into the car. The little guy touched the newly bought accordion case and took a sip from time to time while holding the empty Coke cup. His feet couldn't help but shake twice.
Xia Ye touched his head, and the little guy looked up and smiled at him. He had forgotten what had happened before.
Xia Ye thought to himself that it would be nice for his brother not to hold grudges and live happily.
In the future, he will take care of him.
