Chapter 205 My Neighbor Revealed That I Was Rich
On this day off, Li Quanwang got up early and planned to buy some salted chicken and a few pounds of shrimp.
Because his parents will come back at noon, and this is a rare parent-child time for him.
Li Quanwang doesn’t know how to buy vegetables, and naturally he doesn’t know how to cook.
But this is not important, it’s definitely right to choose the expensive one.
Although I bought a villa, I still have several million in my hands, so I can still guarantee my food.
After buying salted chicken and shrimp, when Li Quanwang returned home, he found that Li Changjian and Huang Jijiao had already returned .
Huang Jijiao was fetching water to wash away the traces of sewage from the stinking ditch that flowed through the door of his house. A woman in her sixties was sitting on a small stool, holding a palm-leaf fan in her hand, and watching Huang Jijiao work.
"Let me tell you, the family at row 5, number 32, just gave birth to a daughter yesterday. It's such a pity that it's not a son. I'm afraid their family line will be cut off in the future."
"Do you remember the family at No. 15, Row 2, who bought a new house last year? They will be moving into a spacious and bright apartment in the community tomorrow."
This auntie is a famous "loudmouth" in the neighborhood. She has a loud voice and loves gossip. Any disturbance in the surrounding area is difficult to hide from her eyes and ears.
Her greatest pleasure in life was to wander around the neighborhood with her small stool and palm-leaf fan. If there was someone at home, she would stop to chat with them. She was the kind of person who would discuss the gender of pests with the vegetable vendors even when she went out to buy vegetables.
Huang Jijiao was working perfunctorily, with an impatient look on her face, but she didn't dare to say it out loud, for fear that she would accidentally become the typical villain in the eyes of Aunt Mingtian.
Li Quanwang came over and called out, "Mom, you're back? It's so early."
Huang Jijiao asked: "Isn't today the weekend? I was wondering where you went when you were not at home."
When the old lady saw that Li Quanwang did not greet her, she became very unhappy, and the topic naturally shifted to Li Quanwang.
"Let me tell you, your Wangzai is not ambitious. He is already in his third year of high school, but he doesn't study hard and goes to the game room to play video games every day."
Li Quanwang was shocked. He didn't expect that this old lady was gossiping about him.
Huang Jijiao's face changed, and she immediately stared at Li Quanwang and said angrily: "Well, your father and I work hard to support your studies, and you go out to play video games!"
In her opinion, there may be many factors for poor academic performance, but playing video games is a bad thing! Hanging out with those street urchins who hang out all day long!
Li Changjian, who was in the house, heard something and came out to find out what happened. He suddenly became angry and rushed out with a feather duster.
Seeing this, the aunt immediately had an expression of watching a show on her face, and continued to fan the flames, saying: "Your Wangzai can't go on like this, he should learn from our Kezai. Let me tell you, he recently got the first place in the class, and the teacher praised him for his future. Your Wangzai has been staying out all night and has hardly come home these days. This is clearly a bad behavior. If you don't take care of him, what will happen in the future?"
After hearing what the aunt said, Huang Jijiao and Li Changjian were even more furious. The couple only had this one son, so why did they have to get up early and go to bed late every day to set up a stall?
Isn't it just that you hope your son will be successful and stand out when he grows up?
But ever since the old man in the family passed away, my son’s grades have been getting worse and worse, and now he has even gotten to the point where he often stays out all night. If we don’t discipline him, what will happen?
Li Changjian, who believed that a good son would be born out of a stick, immediately picked up a feather duster and walked towards Li Quanwang with a fierce and ferocious look.
Li Quanwang was stunned. He had planned to buy some delicious food and have a hot meal for the family of three. Then he would slowly tell his parents about buying a villa to make them happy. He never thought that he would encounter such a thing.
Before he could open his mouth to explain, his mother Huang Jijiao came over and grabbed his ear.
Huang Jijiao cried and scolded, "Li Quanwang, you don't study hard, you play video games and don't come home at night. Do you really want to piss me off to death? Is it easy for your dad and I to work hard from dawn to dusk to earn a little money? All we want is for you to study hard and have a bright future..."
"Mom...be gentle...it hurts...please listen to me..."
How could Huang Jijiao, who was already furious, listen to her son's explanation?
Without saying a word, she dragged Li Quanwang into the house. Li Changjian didn't give any explanation and just hit Li Quanwang with a feather duster.
"You are an unworthy descendant."
"I'm so pissed off."
"Are you still going to play video games?"
“Kneel down!”
If it were in the past, Li Quanwang would have definitely knelt down obediently and would not dare to resist being beaten or scolded.
But this time, Li Quanwang did not kneel down. Instead, he loudly defended himself: "Mom and Dad, listen, I really didn't go to play video games! And I've been studying very hard recently! I went to the Internet cafe to work!"
It would have been fine if he didn't explain, but his explanation made Li Changjian even angrier.
"Well, you little bastard, you actually learned to talk back!"
Before he could finish his words, two feather dusters were thrown at him.
Although Huang Jijiao was also so angry that her eyebrows were shaking, she still felt distressed when she saw her husband beating her son. After a few hits, she pulled Li Quanwang behind her and cried, "It's mom's fault. Mom didn't take good care of you at home, so you stayed out all night playing video games. You are now in the critical period of your senior year of high school. You don't study hard all day, stay out all night, and hang out in Internet cafes. How can you have a future like this? Promise mom and dad that you will not go to Internet cafes anymore, okay?"
Li Quanwang got anxious when he heard this: "How can we not go to the Internet cafe?"
I have shares in the Internet cafe. How can I make money if I don’t work?
As soon as these words came out, Huang Jijiao's face turned ferocious. He picked up the bamboo broom next to him and started a mixed doubles game with Li Changjian, who had already sharpened his knife.
"Ahhhh...be gentle..."
Li Quanwang was beaten so hard that he dodged left and right and jumped up and down.
The food bag in his hand was knocked off, and the salted chicken and live shrimp all fell to the ground.
"What's this?"
Huang Jijiao and Li Changjian stopped immediately.
Li Quanwang grimaced in pain, then remembered that he had happily gone to buy vegetables today, but was beaten up when he came back. He felt extremely wronged and cried, "I have a day off today, and I knew you were coming back, so I went to the market to buy salted chicken and shrimp to eat together at noon..."
As Li Quanwang continued his story, Huang Jijiao and Li Changjian gradually calmed down.
Li Changjian raised his eyebrows slightly and said hesitantly: "Then wait until we finish eating before fighting?"
Huang Jijiao was so moved when she saw the scattered food boxes on the ground that she hugged Li Quanwang in her arms: "You silly child..."
Although Li Quanwang's grades were not good, today, he went to the market to buy vegetables when he knew his parents were coming back. This was enough to show his filial piety. Huang Jijiao was still very pleased.
Although Li Changjian had calmed down a bit, he was not so easy to fool. He still angrily asked , "Then why do you stay out all day and night and go to the Internet cafe? What's going on?"
