While Yin Cai was cooking in the kitchen, he heard Ji Huai mumbling outside. The fishing nets were not tidied up properly, and I didn’t take a shower. I actually watched the live broadcast of the lottery draw on my mobile phone.
"The lottery has been drawn, the lottery has been drawn." Ji Huai sat at the door and said with his mobile phone.
Ji Ziqing stood behind him, leaning against the wall, also looking at her phone.
"What are you doing with nothing to do? If you are really bored, come over and help me wash the dishes!" Yin Cai felt angry for no reason when seeing him like this.
She didn't know what evil possessed her, but she became superstitious about this thing.
"Didn't you buy a lottery ticket? Let me see what the prize is." Ji Huai continued to look at his phone, even more excited than she was.
"Ji Huai!" Yin Cai bought 100 yuan. He was already in pain, but he added fuel to the fire. She raised her voice and said, "Do you want to eat?"
There is no need to fry the meat today, just heat it up, and the vegetables are also stir-fried lettuce, which is very fast.
"Eat, eat, eat." Ji Huai finally looked up at her, but within a few seconds, he was attracted by the voice on the phone.
The host's voice was clear, "Dear viewers and lottery fans in front of the TV, you are watching the 10442nd lottery draw. Our first winning number is: 1."
If Yin Cai had illusions at the beginning, but now they are completely shattered, the first word count is irrelevant.
Ji Huai also lowered his head, his dream of a million dollar prize was shattered.
"No." Ji Ziqing was the first to speak, holding his hand, "Dad, it's time to eat."
"The second winning number is: 7"
"The third winning number is: 5"
…
The sound on the phone continued. Ji Huai was about to turn off the live broadcast and go to eat, but Yin Cai stopped him and said, "Wait a minute."
Her body suddenly tensed up, and she held her hands on her side, staring at the phone in his hand.
“The fourth winning number is 1…”
"What's wrong?" Ji Huai stopped listening at all and said with a smile, "If you don't win, you won't win. I will reimburse you later."
Yin Cai was still a little confused, "...what number did you call?"
He lowered his head to look at his phone. Ji Ziqing had already come over to look at it, "1751, Mom, there are three numbers that are the same, just a little bit different."
Yin Cai: "I bought three numbers..."
Ji Huai's eyes widened: "!!!"
She didn't win the first prize, but she still won. Yin Cai also bought ten yuan. She originally bought it randomly. According to the odds of one yuan corresponding to nine hundred and five, she should have won nearly ten thousand.
Ji Huai looked at the lottery ticket and grinned to the back of his ears. He stared at the number 1 and shook his head with regret. Ji Ziqing said, "Your grandma has always been deaf. I always told her to listen carefully to what people say and listen carefully. She She didn’t listen. Look, the kid said 1 to her, and she heard it become 7.”
Ji Ziqing and Yin Cai looked at each other, not knowing whether to believe it or not.
"There is a big difference between 1 and 7. If you win one million, wouldn't your dad be relieved?" Ji Huai looked at Ji Ziqing, "Tell your grandma next time and listen carefully. Dad will buy a thousand yuan. Winning several million. When the time comes, I will build a five-story foreign-style building at home, which will be taller than anyone else's."
Ji Ziqing looked at her father and pouted, a little reluctantly.
"Listen to dad. Your grandma cares more about face than dad. She can't wait to tell you. Let her listen to the kid. If it doesn't work, let her entrust her dream to dad. Dad will definitely be able to explain it to her." Ji Huai He also guided Ji Ziqing in a convincing manner.
Yin Cai: "..."
Although 10,000 yuan is not the first prize, it is still a lot of money and can buy a lot of furniture.
Ji Huai firmly believed that his mother would come to save him, and it would be no problem to buy a few apartments in the city or build a five-story house at home. For this reason, he bought another roast suckling pig to worship Ji Mu, and burned an extra box of paper and gold bricks.
After all, bribing the kid costs a lot of money.
Now he often asks Ji Ziqing, "Did grandma give you a dream? What lottery did grandma say to buy this issue?"
Ji Ziqing often holds her little hand and looks at him, "The teacher said not to buy lottery tickets! You can't buy it."
"Grandma asked me to buy that. You must know how to seize the opportunity!" Ji Huai coaxed his daughter, with a desire for millions in his eyes.
Ji Ziqing puffed up her cheeks, "No!"
Ji Huai scratched his head: "Work hard. Tell grandma that dad wants to win the lottery! Dad doesn't want to work hard anymore."
…
Even after that, Ji Ziqing never dreamed about Ji's mother again. Ji Huai has not forgotten this incident. He will still work hard to make money, go out early and come back late. When he is extremely tired, he will sigh, "When will Mom let me win?" How many millions? Has mom forgotten us?"
"You have to rely on yourself." Yin Cai was rubbing his back. After driving for too long, his back would become a little sore, so she would give him a massage when she had time.
"Mom must have forgotten about us after meeting Dad. One loves to buy lottery tickets, and the other loves to play mahjong. All the paper money she burned was squandered..." Ji Huai lay on the bed, hugging his pillow, and muttered this sentence, Too tired to fall asleep.
Yin Cai watched him close his eyes, and moved his hands gently. He took out a bottle of medicinal wine from the bedside, walked to his feet, gently tried to rub a small piece of bruise for him, and then wiped the bruise. Disinfect the wound he accidentally scraped.
The shells on the beach are sharp, and he is in a hurry, so he often gets hurt.
After finishing, Yin Cai gently put the things away, covered himself with a quilt and lay down.
She couldn't tell whether winning the lottery was a coincidence or something else. If there was reincarnation in this world, she hoped that Ji's mother would have a good life there, and that there would be no illness in heaven. If it could really bless her, she would bless their family with good health.
On the last day of the year, Ji Huai and his family went to hand over the house, and they even brought Ji Ziqing with them.
The house is a well-decorated house, not as beautiful as the model house, but the quality looks good. Ji Ziqing pointed outside, "Mom, there is a big balcony!!"
Yin Cai followed her daughter to take a look.
"It's so windy and so comfortable." Ji Ziqing stood on the balcony and looked into the distance. She seemed very happy, pointing to the side with a smile, "Can we plant flowers here?"
"Um."
"I want to buy a nice sofa and a big TV."
"good."
"Here, mom, look at this, this cabinet is so beautiful."
…
Ji Ziqing was walking, looking at the big house. Her footsteps suddenly stopped at the door of a room, which was a bit empty. She looked at the big bay window, then turned to look at her mother and father.
Ji Huai smiled softly and reached out to touch her head, "Dad will take you to the furniture store today. We will buy whatever bed you want to buy. By the way, we will also paint your walls pink." Very beautiful."
Ji Ziqing moved her steps, walked in slowly, and kept looking at the house, feeling like a dream.
Probably no one can understand her state of mind. She has been crowded into a room with her parents since she was a child. The house was small, the lights were dim, and the wallpaper on the walls was oxidized.
She didn't dare to imagine such a big and bright house. She has never said that she really wants to have a room of her own.
Soon her sadness was interrupted by her father's voice. Ji Huai gestured, "Next door is your study room. Dad will make it look nice for you. There will be a big bookcase and a writing desk. You need to buy an eye-protecting lamp." , and also set aside a table for you to draw, and there must be many cabinets to hold your things... "
"Thank you, dad." Ji Ziqing's eyes turned into crescent moons.
Ji Huai snorted lightly, "There are conditions. You must study hard and bring honor to your father."
"Yes." She nodded vigorously, "The teacher said I have made progress in math."
"You have to work hard to get first place. Students who don't want to get first place are not good students. Look at dad. Dad is great. He buys cars again and again, and now..." Ji Huai started to brag about himself again.
Ji Ziqing was very supportive, "Daddy is awesome!"
Ji Huai couldn't stop smiling and couldn't help but praise Haikou, "Wait a minute, when dad makes money, dad will buy a bigger house. When the time comes, dad will also leave a dance room for you. , when we have more money, we will live in a villa... "
"Okay, it's endless." Yin Cai heard that he was getting more and more outrageous and quickly told him to stop.
"People have to have dreams, Xiaoqing, right?" Ji Huai looked down at his daughter.
"Yeah." Ji Ziqing nodded vigorously.
"Tell Dad, what is your dream? Is it to be admitted to A University or Capital University? Tell Dad loudly." Ji Huai raised his voice and asked firmly.
Yin Cai thinks he is crazy.
There are two famous universities in the country, but this city with poor education has not had one for many years.
"I want to take the exam, I want to take the exam..." Ji Ziqing suddenly raised her voice, feeling a little out of breath. She paused and looked at Ji Huai seriously, "I want to take the exam to Demco University!"
"What kind of university is that?" Ji Huai was confused and reminded Ji Ziqing, "You can't go to Pheasant University. Our goal is to be a university, such as... 911, and... 258 universities, those are all good universities... "
He didn't even finish junior high school, and he didn't know a few universities. He only knew that one was a good university. He couldn't tell the difference between 985 and 211, let alone the so-called double first-class.
Ji Ziqing was confused and looked at her father again and nodded.
Yin Cai didn't understand either, but the name of the university her daughter mentioned seemed very prestigious.
Later, she checked it online and was shocked. This is one of the top ten universities in the world located abroad. I don’t know where Ji Ziqing found out the name of this university.
This pair of father and daughter are more thoughtful than the other.
After the house is handed over, decoration and furniture purchase come next. Many people had previously thought that Ji Huai had bought a house and was still paying the monthly payment. They didn't know how long it would last and were waiting to see what happens next.
As a result, they hired a carpenter to make a lot of cabinets and prepared several banquets to celebrate the move to a new home.
Aunt Ji's family was jealous, especially Jiya, who secretly complained that she was not allowed to follow the order in the first place, and the kickback from this order was half of her salary.
After complaining a lot, the relatives around them also felt that Ji Huai and his wife had done something wrong. They were all members of the family, and they did not leave any wealth to outsiders.
Aunt Ji didn't explain either. Listening to everyone criticizing Ji Huai and his wife made them feel comfortable.
From word to word, Mr. and Mrs. Ji Huai have become the unkindest people in everyone's mouth. They will inevitably be criticized by others. If they don't like their good life, they will say in private: "How could they give this to them?" His own list of relatives? He is afraid that you will make money. If you make money, how can he be so majestic? "
Aunt Ji also sighed in agreement, "My Xiaoya just watched them sign the contract. You said that if they were relatives, they could get the lowest price, but they just didn't want to. They would rather let outsiders make the money than give it to their own family. , Xiaoya can’t help it.”
After hearing this, everyone complained behind his back again.
Ji's father died long ago, Ji's mother also died early, and Ji Huai was a slacker. Suddenly he was so rich, and some relatives would be a little unwilling to do so. They thought about giving red envelopes to them during the drinking party, which made them even more worried. Scam them out of their money.
Ji Ya is here today, and Aunt Ji is thinking that she will give her a red envelope anyway so that she can come back as soon as possible. If there is more than one person to eat, the money will be more cost-effective.
Ji Yaming knew the truth, but didn't explain it at all. He looked helpless and said, "Forget it, that's it. I can't force them. I can only say that this relative is a little uncomfortable."
"Who would feel comfortable in front of such a relative?" Some people who were talkative already agreed.
Aunt Ji is sure that others will be a little dissatisfied. It doesn't matter what the truth is. No one will really ask Ji Huai and his wife whether they deliberately refused to follow the order for Ji Ya.
Who knows, when the banquet started, Ji Huai came over to pour wine. Everyone joked that the house was expensive and the mortgage loan was high. He continued, "Didn't I think about Xiaoya working in that company? I wanted to get some discounts, but No. Xiaoya said that she was not the one to follow the order and could not compete with her colleagues, so she arranged for a new person for us. Maybe the house is easier to sell, and there is no internal discount at all. "
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became subtle.
Aunt Ji just said that Ji Huai and his wife didn't know how to behave and wouldn't give orders to Ji Ya. It was because Ji Ya didn't take orders, so there was no kickback. She also said that it was difficult to sell the house, but it would be easier to sell it here in Jihuai
Everyone's money didn't come from the strong wind, and they all knew that it was difficult to make money. Regarding Ji Ya's words, everyone obviously believed Ji Huai more.
Cousin Ji Er asked, "If she doesn't follow the order, you can give it to her. I'm afraid the difference is tens of thousands. It would be unkind to keep the money from others."
"I also want to give it. I asked Xiaoya to take us several times, but she didn't take it, saying that it would be bad to grab the order. With so many people watching, I can't make it difficult for her to be a human being. What can I do?" Ji Huai felt more distressed than him.
Everyone looked at Jiya with a different meaning, and she lowered her head silently because of her guilty conscience.
Aunt Ji also shut up.
Everyone has been relatives for decades, so they knew what was going on at a glance.
"Forget it, forget it, it's over." Ji Huai greeted everyone again and specially warned, "Today is just for everyone to be happy together. You're welcome. Don't stuff any money. You won't be charged. Just eat well."
Come on, this just made them look like they were petty, and everyone at the table was silent.
A lot of people came from the Yin family, and Yin's mother called everyone she could. Everyone laughs at her daughter's bad marriage, now let them see.
Her daughter has already bought a big house in the city, so why is it so bad? Some people are bitter first and then sweet. Her daughter will definitely enjoy endless blessings in the future!
Ji Huai also specially asked the chef to leave two tables of dishes for the Yin family to take home. They were all freshly made, including a lot of seafood, and the fruits he shipped were delivered in full boxes.
When Yin's mother left, she walked out with her head held high and a smile on her face.
