Everyone Knows I am a Good Man - Chapter 458
No matter how hard Old Man Lin tried to persuade others that Ji Changze was an unfilial son, the residents of Tongzilou and Zheng Guohua didn’t believe it.
Unfilial son?
How can it be?
Last time the two old men left Ji Changze in front of so many people when they needed help the most, and said a lot of derogatory things before leaving.
Regardless of how Ji Changze has set up a game console these days, he seems to have made a lot of money, but the neighbors in the tube building did not see him smile.
Think about it, he himself is a person who doesn’t like to show his thoughts. Otherwise, everyone would not be a neighbor and have worked for so many years to realize that two-thirds of Ji Changze’s salary over the years has been given to his parents.
Today’s people are mostly simple, even if Ji Changze makes a lot of money visible to the naked eye these days, no one is jealous.
Instead, it was because his parents treated him so sympathetically.
A neighbor whispered: “I thought it was weird before. It stands to reason that Dad Xiaoxue’s salary is 300 a month. Why is the family living like that? It turned out to be given to his parents.”
“For so many years of filial piety, let alone your biological son, even if you are not your biological son, you have to think about others, well, they turned out to be better…”
Many people looked at the old man Lin and the two, with subtle disgust on their faces.
No matter what era, people with inferior character are always disgusting.
Regardless of the explanation, the two men who were not believed in directly collapsed.
They couldn’t figure out how things would become like this.
Shouldn’t it be that no matter what they do, the elder son can’t resist, otherwise others will say that he is not filial?
Why are they kicked out now, these people still look like they are wrong?
Ji Changze put down his hand, his eyes flushed and looked at the two embarrassed:
“Father, mother, I don’t know why you are doing this to me, but I’m really not a waste, the game console I made…”
He paused slightly when he said that, as if he would cry out in front of so many people otherwise.
After a few seconds, he said in a hoarse voice:
“The game console I made is not as bad as you said. I will make more games in the future, and I will prove it to you…I am not a useless person.”
After finishing speaking, he seemed to be unable to restrain his emotions anymore, covering his eyes with one hand, and first said something vaguely to the neighbors around him: “I’m sorry, I’m bothering you, I will go up.”
Then, he hurried up the stairs.
The old lady Lin was still stunned. Seeing him running, she subconsciously stepped forward to stop: “Wait, don’t go, you tell us clearly…”
However, before they could take a few steps, they were already stopped by the neighbors around them.
Ji Changze’s gaffe made them more sympathetic, and lost patience towards the indifferent parents:
“If you do this again, we will call the police.”
“How can your parents do this? Really, I used to boast that you were so old to help my son. It really blinded me.”
“Go away, Dad Xiaoxue has a good temper, but I am not good-tempered. If I keep pestering Dad Xiaoxue like this, be careful, I’m welcome!”
These days, one by one witnessed how Ji Changze lost his soul and how to beat the spirited neighbors out of justice.
They have all lived together for so many years, and it is not popular nowadays that self-sweeping is not popular. When one person opened his mouth, the rest followed suit.
Zheng Guohua was worried that Ji Changze would follow, but was stopped by Wang Jijun.
“You have a strong physique, stop these two below, I and Old Qi will go up and take a look.”
They are preventing these two from going up again to cause sabotage.
Originally, Ji Changze was depressed these days, and they took care of them every day.
It’s not easy for people to get better, and this came out today.
Zheng Guohua also knew that he was not good at persuading others, and nodded: “Okay, you can go up, rest assured, there is me here, they can’t get up.”
He made up his mind to choke in the cradle the possibility of the incompetent parents affecting Ji Changze.
It really doesn’t work, the big deal is that he quit his job and stayed by Ji Changze 24 hours a day.
To make this decision, of course, it takes a lot of courage, but Zheng Guohua, who has witnessed how popular and profitable game consoles are, knows what is most important.
As long as Changze is protected, the identity of a timber factory worker is nothing.
He was guarding downstairs for an hour, during which the old man Lin and the two couldn’t go up no matter how hard they tried.
“Our luggage is still on it!!!”
Zheng Guohua turned a deaf ear: “Since you have made up your mind not to bring out your luggage to frame Changze, it is your own business.”
The two were already crazy.
“Who framed him!!!”
“We don’t have one! No one!!!”
Zheng Guohua replied with two words: “Haha.”
In the end, the parents gritted their teeth and left under the indifferent and contemptuous sight of Zheng Guohua and the people around them.
They can’t leave without leaving. The weather is so cold and they were cheated out of it abruptly. They didn’t wear a thick coat at all.
Being able to hold on for an hour is already a great deal.
Zheng Guohua was still a little worried, for fear that these two men would kill the carbine, and waited downstairs for more than ten minutes. Seeing that there was no movement, he went upstairs with peace of mind.
Upstairs, because Wang Jijun and the others were there, the neighbors didn’t come to persuade them. Only when the neighbors who had seen enough of the excitement came back, they looked curiously at the wide open door of Ji’s house.
When Zheng Guohua entered, he saw two companions sitting at the table in the main room, all with worried expressions on their faces.
His heart burst.
“How is it? Is Nagasawa better?”
Qi Guoli smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Wang Jijun sighed: “He shut himself in the room, saying that he wanted to be alone.”
Although he had guessed this before, Zheng Guohua couldn’t help but sighed when Ji Changze really shut himself down again.
“Inflict evil.”
How can someone like Nagasawa who is serious, smart and hard-working live with such a pair of parents?
Ji Changze is indeed autistic.
The kind of self-closing that closed his eyes.
He must be autistic.
Old man Lin’s eldest son is a great filial son. This is a fact that has lasted for more than 30 years.
I can be thirty-five years old and hand over two-thirds of the salary to the family members. Now that I am being “successfully” hurt by my parents, how can I think about it?
When Zhou Xiaocao came back the next day, she realized that her in-laws had made such a fuss while she was away.
She couldn’t take care of the gloating in-laws, and she fell into worrying about her husband.
As his wife, Zhou Xiaocao knows better than anyone how much her husband loves his parents.
She thanked Zheng Guohua and others who had been worried about taking care of her husband, opened the door and walked in, silently sitting next to Ji Changze who was leaning on the bed and reading.
“Nagasawa……”
She took her husband’s hand and tried to comfort him: “Don’t think too much, you still have Xiaoxue.”
Zhou Xiaocao did not say that when her husband had just lost a family relationship, telling him that he still had relatives was the best way to comfort him.
Ji Changze put down the book, his expression moved, as if he had been reminded.
“Correct……”
He shook his wife’s hand instead, his tone was lost and hesitated, and every word revealed the meaning of self-comfort:
“I still have you.”
Ji Changze hugged the person in front of him, his voice hoarse: “Xiaocao, I only have you.”
Zhou Xiaocao also stretched out her hand to hug him. At this moment, she realized that this man who had always been strong in her eyes was so fragile.
For so many years, it is impossible to say that there is no complaint in my heart.
Filial piety is normal, but the husband’s various behaviors have surpassed the word filial piety.
In order to support her in-laws, no matter how hard they work, their little family has been in embarrassing poverty all these years.
It’s fine if you can’t change all of this, but Ji Changze’s monthly salary of 300 is enough for them to live well.
Sometimes, Zhou Xiaocao will be unwilling.
Her cowardice is not for her own unwillingness, but for her daughter.
For a long time, Zhou Xiaocao didn’t think that the identity of her wife would allow her to share everything about her husband for granted.
But the daughter is different.
That’s Changze’s biological child.
So she was not even unwilling, not for herself.
And now, holding this not very strong man, he took out a stack of money from his pocket.
Tucked firmly into her hand.
This is the first time Zhou Xiaocao has seen so much money.
In so many years, this little family’s savings have never exceeded fifty.
Because even if the wages are handed over, the parents will still come to catch the autumn wind from time to time.
Newly bought things, even oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, will not escape their search.
And now, she has so much money in her hands.
This money is enough to support her daughter all the way through school.
Ji Changze’s deep voice was in his ears:
“Following me these years, you and Xiaoxue have suffered. I also know that I can’t help myself. In the future, you will keep all the money I make.”
This is to prevent him from giving money to his parents again.
Zhou Xiaocao held the money, and after hearing what her husband said, his eyes turned red.
She has never denied that her husband is a good person, but he is too filial, and the object of his filial piety is too hateful.
After more than ten years, she finally got ahead.
Zhou Xiaocao’s heart gradually developed something called confidence, she took out a handkerchief cherished, and carefully folded the money on it.
“Okay, I take it.”
The distress that the hostess of this house can’t stop her eyes slowly fades, and her smile also has a relaxed meaning.
She whispered and thought:
“You are also tired these days. Just now Guohua and they helped a lot. I will buy some meat and wine. I will call them all tonight. You guys have a good drink.”
“Xiaoxue’s schoolbag is also old. It’s time to get a new one for her. I’ll buy one for her tomorrow, as well as clothes. Her clothes are all white.”
“And your shoes, it’s time to change.”
Zhou Xiaocao kept planning for her home, just listening to what she said would know how busy she would be in the next few days.
Ji Changze didn’t try to make her change a less busy lifestyle.
He saw that she urgently needed to take the initiative to change everything she wanted to change at the moment, so as to slowly realize the peace of mind of this hostess.
After all, for more than ten years, Zhou Xiaocao has been under the shadow of her mother-in-law in the purchases of the family, and has never been able to actively buy or lose anything.
Ji Changze only shook her hand and said slowly when she had calculated everything she was going to do, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face:
“And you, it’s time to buy some beautiful clothes.”
Zhou Xiaocao froze for a moment, then hesitated a little: “Me? I’m so old, so what else do I dress up?”
“You are only in your thirties, so how old are you.”
Ji Changze said in a serious tone: “Game consoles are very profitable. In the future, you don’t have to worry about running out of money at home. Not only do you buy some clothes, such as the cream used by women, you can also buy some back.”
His expression is not so affectionate. After all, they are both old husbands and old wives, and both of them are living temperaments. They talk about love or something. They have never appeared before, and they are only a long stream.
“I was confused before. I wronged you for my parents, but I won’t do it anymore.”
Zhou Xiaocao looked at her husband blankly.
The red eye sockets are even redder.
The grievances that have been lingering in my heart all these years seem to be gone.
She smiled: “Okay, then I will buy two clothes.”
Money is the courage of people.
Holding a handkerchief in her hand, looking at the man in front of her who was smiling at herself, she felt at ease in her heart that she had never felt before.
At this moment, she was so solid that she felt that she was the mistress of this house.
This is her, Nagasawa, and Xiaoxue’s home.
****
Zhou Xiaocao went out to purchase. Ji Changze thought of a person slowly while sorting out the blueprints he drew before.
Lin Changyuan.
This person is strange.
In the memory of the original owner, his younger brother is like the moon in the sky, high above and full of distance.
Lin Changyuan has shown cleverness and wit since he was a child.
When he was three years old, he was able to communicate with adults freely, and when he was five years old he taught himself to read.
At that time, the only elementary school teacher in the village was shocked and devoted all his knowledge to teach him.
In the end, Lin Changyuan Primary School only went to junior high school for one year.
If this is the case, it can only prove that Lin Changyuan is smarter, but Lin Changyuan in junior high school seems to have gradually become mediocre. Although his grades are good, he has not reached the point where people are surprised by genius.
It was even worse when I got to high school.
From good students with excellent grades, they are directly reduced to the lower-middle level.
But he would say that when he returned home he would never mention his decline in grades, and the old lady Lin had always coaxed him to treat him like a darling.
It was not until the college entrance examination that he was admitted to a very good university with excellent results. The teachers and classmates of the school were surprised that his performance gap was so large that Lin Changyuan’s poor performance in high school was exposed.
But for the winner, the bad past is nothing.
Lin Changyuan became the most beautiful junior in the village. After graduating from college, he returned to Changliu County to teach.
Because it is a very famous university, Changhe High School accepted him without any hesitation.
After successfully joining the company, he married the daughter of the vice-principal, gave birth to a big fat boy, and became a successful person who was happy in every aspect in the eyes of others.
The original owner didn’t have much contact with this younger brother.
He was picked up by his parents from a young age to compare him with his younger brother. How good the other party is, just how incompetent he is.
Even when his younger brother was in school, he had already started making money to supplement his family. For his parents, this was just one of the incidents in which he could not compare to his younger brother.
The lives of the two of them are like one heaven and one earth, clearly distinguished.
Lin Changyuan seemed to understand this truth too. The eyes of this elder brother were always full of indifference and contempt, and he even refused to attend the original host during his wedding.
In short, the feelings of the brothers are very bad.
How Ji Changze thinks that Lin Changyuan has a big problem.
Especially when he was in high school, he strongly urged his parents to spend money to buy a house in the city, but the old man Lin at the time was unwilling to gamble with his life savings even though he was partial to his little son.
After the house slowly increased in price, they couldn’t afford it anymore.
With this lesson learned, when the elder son made a sum of money and wanted to build a house in the village, when the younger son offered to buy him a house in the county with the money, the two agreed without hesitation. .
When the original owner was wronged about this matter, they would still criticize him in a tone that he is ignorant:
“Do you know how much the house has risen to? If we hadn’t bought the house with that money before, would it be so profitable now? How much is the value of the house in the village?”
However, they don’t want to think that the price of this house has indeed risen.
But it is not recorded in the name of the original owner. It is his business if the price increases or not.
All in all, in the eyes of Ji Changze, the old fried dough stick, Lin Changyuan’s various behaviors can be described as full of errors and omissions.
Rebirth.
It was not the first time that Ji You Tiao, who had encountered the rebirth, put down the drawing in his hand.
It seems that he has to make sure of the IQ of this rebirth.
Although the opponent can barely maintain good grades from the time they reach junior high school, from the point of view that high school has directly become a poor student, it seems that there is no need to measure it.
Ji Changze went to the cabin where the game console was placed, and found a few students who were wearing Zhao Jian’s school uniforms, and asked them to go to Zhao Jian to spread the word.
After school, Zhao Jihua really ran over.
“Brother Ze, you are looking for me.”
“Yes, come to my house tonight, your sister-in-law will cook, we have a good meal, you remember to tell your parents to go back later.”
When Zhao planned hearing this, Le Fang couldn’t see his eyes: “Hao Le!”
Can he be upset?
Brother Ze invited them to dinner, doesn’t it mean that he has recovered a little bit?
Ji Changze went on to say: “I remember you knew students from Changhe High School?”
Plan Zhao nodded: “Yes, I have several good brothers in Changhe High School.”
Basically, they are all in a junior high school. Even if everyone goes to different high schools, they still have a good relationship.
“I want to change the game console. From now on, I will count the ranking once a month, and the first one will be rewarded with 100 yuan.”
As soon as Ji Changze finished saying this, Zhao Jihua’s eyes widened: “One hundred yuan?!”
“Correct.”
Ji Changze pretended not to see the “Brother Ze, you are crazy” expression on Zhao Jihua’s face, and slowly continued:
“Now our game consoles are well-known throughout the county. There are so many songs and dances back and forth. Players are easy to get tired of playing. We have come up with some incentives to make them enthusiastic.”
In fact, the most profitable and attractive thing in this era is gambling on game consoles.
But Ji Changze was not willing to make a bet.
If you’re just entering the new world, it’s okay to pretend to be a part of the role, and open a bet by yourself, or when the client is mostly students? How could he do it.
Plan Zhao has always been smart, and Ji Changze understood it as soon as he started.
“Brother Ze, I understand, I will promote it well.”
Ji Changze nodded: “Also, remember to make it clear when propagating that we do not accept students here during class hours.”
Plan Zhao was a little at a loss: “Why? Many students are outside during class.”
Now everyone knows that going to university is a good thing, but the response to dropping out and not studying well is not as big as later generations.
Bad grades in school? Not willing to study? Then go to work.
Although it’s a bit harder and can’t do an office, it’s okay to make money.
Ji Changze lowered his eyes slightly: “Students should still study hard. If my daughter ran out to play during class, I would not feel well.”
“I only have such a daughter. We will compare our hearts to our hearts, and we should also consider it for the parents of students.”
Zhao Jihua was a little envious when he saw the love flashing across his face when he said this.
It’s not that Ji Changze loves his daughter. After all, he has a good relationship with his parents.
He envied Ze Ze when he talked about his daughter so tenderly.
Look at his parents, they are very enlightened, and when you mention him, he is still a little bastard.
“Okay, Brother Naze, I’ll write a new rule and post it on the wall in a while.”
The young master Zhao planned to do as he pleased. After a while, this brand new rule appeared on the wall.
The next day, this rule worked.
Some students who specialize in skipping classes to play game consoles were turned away, unconvinced and unhappy, and wanted to have the spine to say that there is no place for them, and they will never come again.
But looking at the few young people who were waiting in line to play inside, they still silently closed their mouths.
There is nothing more fun in the county than this game console.
Now if you say this sentence and can’t help but come to play after a while, then you have to slap your face.
“All right, then I will come again after school.”
In the end, they had no choice but to leave, and mumbled as they walked: “I haven’t seen anything like this before, so I don’t want to do business.”
Zheng Guohua, who was still immersed in the delicious food last night, watched the students walk away with regret.
This is all money.
“Nagaze, is this really okay? We won’t earn less, right?”
Ji Changze lowered his head to fiddle with the parts in his hand, and did not look up when he heard this: “We are not short of this amount of money. Without these few students, the game console would still not be idle for a day.”
Zheng Guohua thought, too.
He glanced at Ji Changze carefully, and he was relieved when he saw that the other party’s expression was calm, as if he was not so sad anymore.
“What do we do next?”
“Next?”
Ji Changze looked at the young people who were waiting in line over there: “Wait.”
Waiting for this game console to spread out of this county.
All the way to the whole country.
Changhe High School.
The get out of class bell rang, and the teacher announced that he would walk out of the classroom after class, and the students who had listened to the class honestly suddenly became lively.
This one talks about recent popular novels, the other talks about songs, and those with a TV at home are discussing what was played on the TV last night.
And in the corner of the classroom, there is a small group that does not relax and seize the time to review what the teacher just said.
One of the students was a little tired. He looked up and saw that all of his friends were studying frantically. He wanted to rest and felt too bad.
After thinking about it, he poked at the tablemate next to him.
“I’m tired, are you tired?”
The same table temporarily put down the pen: “I’m tired, I really want to rest.”
When other people saw them chatting, they also raised their heads, rubbing their sore hands from writing notes, and groaning.
“It’s too difficult.”
“I am pretty tired.”
“Unexpectedly, learning is really not an easy task.”
“Nonsense, if it was easy, you would have sat in the front early.”
They complained for a while, and the student who spoke first suggested: “Should we take a break?”
The others nodded one after another: “Okay, I want to lie down for a while.”
“Me too, I want to read a little man book.”
“Then I will play backgammon for a while.”
Seeing that everyone was planning to take a break, this student relaxed, and didn’t feel any loss in his heart.
“Then I’ll go to the canteen to buy a popping candy.”
“go Go.”
“I will sleep for a while.”
The student stood up in peace and walked out of the classroom. When he walked to the top of the stairs, he suddenly remembered something and touched his pocket.
Sure enough, I forgot to bring that dime.
Hey, forget that in order to save money to play the snowflake game machine, he cruelly put all the money under the bed, just to prevent him from buying delicious food at school.
Thinking of this, the student licked his mouth gluttonously.
The conditions in his family can only be said to be fair, but the dancing game console is too fun, so he can only save money in this way.
It would be great if I could get into the top ten.
You can get ten game coins when you get into the top ten, which is enough to play ten.
Thinking of this, he started to feel nervous again at the thought that he didn’t want to study and wanted to go downstairs and relax.
How can it be carried!
If you don’t work hard now, how can you have money to play games.
Think of ten game coins!
He gritted his teeth, the expression on his face became determined, and he went back the same way.
As he walked, he thought a little nervously. He went on to buy snacks and then came back to study. Several other people must say that he was not interesting enough.
But this can’t be blamed on him, who has made the game currency too tempting.
Thinking about it this way, the student who wanted to be lazy but was brought back to the front line of learning by reason pushed the door open.
After opening the back door and seeing the scene in front of him, the firm expression on his face was stiff.
In the back row of seats, the friends who had just vowed to him about going to sleep and playing backgammon were all immersed in review.
The expressions are more serious than the other.
The eyes are more serious than the other.
“by!”
He cursed, but he couldn’t think of it, everyone friends, this group of people would play tricks with him.
“You guys are really…”
I want to open my mouth to scold, and feel that scolding is really a waste of time.
With this skill, he might as well study hard.
So, half a minute later, there was another person in the small group who was immersed in learning.
The teacher who came back downstairs to the toilet and passed by the classroom saw their appearance and nodded in satisfaction.
“Lao Zhang, what are you looking at.”
In the next class, the teacher who was attending here came over with a book, followed the colleague’s eyes to see the scene inside, and smiled.
“They have been like this for several days. When I listened to my class seriously, I couldn’t wait to get them to the front.”
The teacher also laughed: “My class is the same. These children are actually quite smart, but they didn’t put their minds on learning before. Now they are so serious, even if they can’t pass the top ten exams, they should have made a lot of progress. of.”
When he finished speaking, he subconsciously scanned the classroom, and saw the students sitting in the first row struggling with pens and books, slightly puzzled.
“Why does Linhe fight like this?”
The teacher in the next class took a look and knew the inside story: “Why, it’s not for the game currency. Since the snowflake game machine came out like this, the students in the whole school have been honest a lot.”
“All sighed, wanting to get into the top ten in the class.”
The teacher who asked the question was even more puzzled: “Don’t Linhe usually don’t play games? This game machine is so fun, even he has fallen?”
“No, even if he wants to play, he doesn’t have time to play. I was afraid that he would be addicted to games and delay studying, so I asked him, this kid wants to earn those game coins, and then sell them to supplement the family.”
The teacher in the class was full of pity: “It is not easy for him. In the family situation, there are still three younger siblings. Last time it seemed that the younger brother was sick and needed to see a doctor, but there is no money at home. I went to Snowflake to ask if he could redeem his certificate, but the boss actually redeemed it for him.”
“Later, he took the game currency and exchanged it for three yuan, which was regarded as showing his brother to the illness.”
Upon hearing this, the previous teacher also sighed.
What they feel most distressed is that Linhe in the class has good grades and people work hard, but the family is too poor.
Teachers want to help, but they are also powerless.
It’s not easy for anyone these days.
“In this way, it is indeed a good thing that the Snowflake game machine makes such a thing.”
The poor students worked hard to be able to play games.
Good students from impoverished families can also take the awards to exchange for game currency to supplement their families.
“I’ve never been like this. I think it’s a good time to have such a game console in the county.”
The teacher laughed when his colleague said so.
“Who isn’t.”
I always felt that game consoles made these students play with things. This is the first time I have seen game consoles promote students to study well.
“Shall we go take a look another day? I heard it was really fun.”
“Why, you are going to fall too?”
“Hahahaha, why is it so ugly to fall into the trap.”
“I heard that the teacher in the high school next door just wanted to try it, and it turned out to be so fun. After school, I have to play there to be comfortable.”
“That’s good too. Old arms and legs are old, and moving is considered exercise.”
The two talked and looked at each other and smiled, but they didn’t expect that if they were teachers, they would have another day in their lives to take the initiative to play in the game hall.
To blame, blame this game is so fun.
