On a dilapidated Eight Immortals table, there were several steaming dishes.
Xia Ye's family of five sat around the table and had lunch.
The scene of family gathering together for dinner only appears in dreams on summer nights.
However, it actually happened to him at this moment, which made him feel filled with emotions.
Xia Cheng and Wang Lan tried their best to put vegetables into Jiang Mu and Qiqi's bowls, completely ignoring Xia Ye beside them.
If it hadn't been for the critical moment when the villagers were besieging him today, the old couple would have stepped forward to protect him.
He has to wonder if he is his biological child?
"Dad, Mom, I made a little money in the city. How about I take you around the city when you have time?"
Xia Ye knew that her request would be rejected by the old couple.
Xia Cheng, Wang Lan and his wife have lived in Xingde Village for most of their lives. They would definitely not be able to fully adapt to suddenly moving into the city.
Jiang Mu echoed: "Dad, Mom, the city is developing very well now. When Xia Ye and I are stable in the city, we will take you over to enjoy the blessings."
Xia Cheng and Wang Lan smiled happily and shook their heads.
"Forget it, we have stayed in the countryside for most of our lives, so we won't go to the city to cause trouble for you. Besides, the land in our village cannot be left abandoned. If we go to the city, it will not be occupied by those bastards. Already?"
"Your mother is right, we can't take advantage of others. If the two of us go to the city, they will definitely take over all the land in our village! We can never leave, we have to guard this land, and we can't do it casually Then it falls into the hands of others. This is the lifeblood of our old Xia family!"
Xia Ye said doubtfully: "Can you contract the land to others? Then you two can enjoy happiness?"
Xia Cheng rolled his eyes at Xia Ye and said, "If you contract it to others, all the crops grown in that land belong to others. Seeing that others have harvests every year, what will your mother and I eat and drink? Besides, I Your mother and I are guarding this land for you. From now on, when your mother and I are buried, all the land in this village will be yours."
Wang Lan echoed: "Your father is right. We have worked hard our whole lives, aren't we all for you?"
Listening to the words of Xia Cheng and Wang Lan, Xia Ye's nose felt slightly sore and she said, "But I don't want you to work so hard. Seeing that both of you are carrying a lot of weight, I feel uncomfortable. How about we engage in breeding?" Village Chief Wan and I applied to contract the fish pond at the east end of the village. You two can easily make money by raising fish, so you don’t have to work so hard anymore."
Xia Cheng frowned and said: "What kind of farming thing? Is that thing you said reliable? Can you farm the land safely? Don't lose all your money then."
Wang Lan nodded and said, "Why are you so prodigal? If you have money, save it and don't spend it randomly. It's not easy to make money now, so why are you spending money everywhere?"
The old couple's words made Xia Ye feel a little helpless.
Xia Cheng and Wang Lan have deep-rooted poverty thinking, and it is very difficult to change them all at once.
They firmly believe that money is saved little by little, and they are reluctant to spend money on themselves throughout their lives.
They are unwilling to make any changes and just want to stay in their comfort zone and spend their lives peacefully.
But sometimes in life, shouldn’t we constantly seek changes to make it more exciting?
Xia Ye said: "Dad, Mom, I have contracted the fish pond. You can try it first and raise lobsters, crabs and eels in it. These will be sold in the town in the future, and I guarantee that you can make a lot of money."
Xia Cheng glared at Xia Ye and cursed: "You kid is so rich that you just want to waste your money. Please give me back the fish pond!"
"Dad, can you believe me for once? I also want to make it easier for you to make money."
"Dad, Xia Ye is also very filial. Why don't you and Mom give it a try? I also think breeding has great prospects." Jiang Mu quickly smiled and smoothed things over for Xia Ye.
Xia Cheng, who had been looking solemn just now, suddenly smiled and said to Jiang Mu, "Jiang Mu, do you think breeding is reliable?"
"Dad, I've heard people say that if you breed well, you can easily earn 18,000 yuan a year."
Xia Cheng and Wang Lan suddenly widened their eyes.
Eighteen thousand?
Are there so many?
Isn’t that equivalent to the land they farmed for several years?
"Eight thousand? Is it really that much? Old man, how about we give it a try? The children are also kind-hearted."
Xia Cheng hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Jiang Mu's firm gaze, he couldn't help but nodded and said, "Okay! Then let's listen to Jiang Mu and try contracting the fish pond."
Xia Ye was speechless.
When I said it, you guys yelled at me, and Jiang Mu agreed immediately as soon as he said it?
Do you want to have such double standards?
After finishing the meal, Jiang Mu and Qiqi chatted happily with Xia Cheng, Wang Lan and the others.
Xia Cheng and Wang Lan look like Jiang Mu's natal family.
And Xia Ye suddenly became a son-in-law in this family, unable to even get in a word.
As evening approached, the phone rang.
Xia Ye said: "I'm going out to take a call."
But Xia Cheng, Wang Lan and Jiang Mu Qiqi were chatting happily, and they didn't even notice that Xia Ye picked up the phone and left home.
Because it was Xiao Yun who called, Xia Ye thought that the other party wanted to reveal to him the clues about the loan shark group, so he found a relatively secluded place to answer the call.
In the evening, Xia Cheng and Wang Lan, who were completely unaware of Xia Ye's departure, were ready to prepare dinner.
It happened that Zhang Zhiyuan, a friend from the village who had a good relationship with Xia Cheng, came to visit.
Zhang Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Xia Cheng, are there any distinguished guests at your home today? Is your brother who runs a soda factory back? Your brother is really promising, and he drives such a good car?"
Xia Cheng shook his head and said, "No, it's my son who came back to visit us with his daughter-in-law and granddaughter."
"Your son? Did he make a fortune from gambling? Has he bought such a good car?"
"What kind of fortune are you getting? Just make a little money and buy a little old car to show off. Don't my mother and I still know what kind of virtue he has?"
Xia Cheng has always been worried about Xia Ye's gambling, and felt that the money he earned must not be legitimate.
Wang Lan echoed: "Lao Zhang, you don't even know. My son just paid for the damage to the village today. How can he have money to buy a good car?"
Zhang Zhiyuan said in surprise: "You two really don't know what kind of car he drives?"
Xia Cheng and Wang Lan shook their heads.
Zhang Zhiyuan said with a very exaggerated expression: "This is a Mercedes-Benz! People who can afford to drive such a car in the city are very rich people. A car costs 1.8 million!"
Xia Cheng and Wang Lan were stunned.
1.8 million?
How can this be?
How could their son earn so much money?
They simply couldn't believe that Xia Ye earned 1.8 million through gambling. Could it be that he went to rob a bank?
Xia Cheng swallowed hard and hurriedly ran outside the house, wandering around in front of the tiger's head.
"Old Zhang, you said this car is worth 1.8 million? Are you lying to me?"
"Why should I lie to you? My aunt's son is doing very well in the city. He is a small business owner. He bought a car with the same badge as your son's car, and it cost him 1.8 million."
Wang Lan's face was full of shock.
How much does it cost, 1.8 million?
