Li Mu's parents still did not go to work today. Li's mother started calling her relatives in the morning to inform them of Li Mu's college entrance examination scores and the evening banquet.
Li Mu’s score in the college entrance examination was mentioned many times in the morning, but she never said it enough. She felt that 636 points had almost become her mantra. Even when she went out to buy groceries, she kept saying it all the way. : "Six hundred and thirty-six, six hundred and thirty-six..."
This score is indeed enough for her and her husband to be proud for a long time.
Li Mu's grandparents were very happy after learning about Li Mu's score. Three years ago, their granddaughter, Xiao Yuanyuan, the only daughter of Uncle Li Mu, scored 570 points in the college entrance examination and was admitted to a provincial university. At that time, two elderly people were asked to do so. After a summer of happiness, when they heard that their eldest grandson got such a high score in the exam, the two elders couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear since the morning.
Li Mu's aunt and uncle were also very happy and happily accepted the invitation on the phone. Only the uncle and aunt were a little bit offended. Although they didn't like it, they naturally couldn't refuse such a thing without face, so they agreed. Come down.
Li Mu's uncle and aunt both work in the tax bureau. After one year, the couple earns 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in salary and benefits. They are a truly well-off family and the Xiao family has the best conditions;
Next is Li Mu's aunt. She failed to get into the tax bureau in her early years, so she joined the city's textile factory. However, the textile factory went bankrupt a few years ago. After she was laid off, she opened a small children's clothing store in an alley with little investment. It’s big, but it’s a lot of profit. It’s said that in one year, you can make a net profit of around 30,000 yuan. Among the five people in my mother’s generation, my uncle and aunt’s family have the best economic conditions, so their families are also the most proud. .
At around five o'clock in the evening, his uncle Xiao Yunjian and his wife Cai Yanhong went out together. Xiao Yunjian rode on his beloved Dayang motorcycle. After Cai Yanhong sat sideways, Xiao Yunjian asked: "Where is Yuanyuan? She came back for the summer vacation, and there was no one there all day long. .”
Cai Yanhong said casually: "I called her and said she was playing at a classmate's house. Then she would go directly to Haizhou Hotel."
Xiao Yunjian nodded, "Tell me, this Li Daoping, his son got a high score in the college entrance examination and he did well. He arranged a treat at the Haizhou Hotel. Is that a place he can afford?"
Cai Yanhong patted him on the shoulder: "He wants to make himself fat, so we don't need to worry about him. We don't need to pay the bill after eating."
After saying that, Cai Yanhong remembered something and said hurriedly: "Don't be in a hurry to give Li Mu money today. You have to wait until he gets the notice and confirms that he will leave this year. When our Yuanyuan went to college the year before last, Your sister gave you five hundred, remember this number and give Li Mu five hundred when the time comes, don’t give more.”
Xiao Yunjian started the motorcycle and said, "I know, don't worry." Then he turned the accelerator and jumped out.
Li Mu's parents deliberately left work half an hour early today and changed into more formal clothes when they came home. Li Mu refused his father's request to wear a shirt and continued to take the casual route, wearing a loose white T-shirt and black shorts.
The three members of the Li family arrived at the hotel twenty minutes early. Li Mu took the opportunity to order the food before anyone arrived. Basically, they followed the rich man's route and got the best food and the best wine.
The seafood and Maotai wine alone cost basically three thousand yuan. The waiter in charge of ordering was a little surprised, but Li Mu still looked down upon it.
Before coming here, Li Mu reminded his parents that he would only talk about his scores at the dinner table today, and not mention anything else about the money he made. In addition, whatever he said at the dinner table, neither of them could undermine it. They had to go along with it. Go on with your own words.
Although the request was a bit overbearing, Li Mu had his own reasons. He thought very simply. After living for more than thirty years, he had seen many relatives who seemed to be in harmony but were distant from each other and even regarded them as enemies. There were very few big families that were truly harmonious and harmonious. He has a lot of dissatisfaction with his uncle and aunt, and he knows it, but he doesn't want to slap anyone in the face today. He just wants to help his father regain the face he has gained in the Xiao family for twenty years, so that they will never look down on him again. Dad.
At six o'clock, eight cold dishes had been served, and two bottles of Maotai wine had been opened and placed on the huge round table.
Father Li looked at this formation. Although he did not follow the order, he also knew that his son would not spend less today. If nothing else, just two bottles of Maotai cost more than a thousand!
Soon, Li Mu's uncle Xiao Yunshe arrived first with his wife and children, as well as Li Mu's grandparents. His uncle's life was ordinary, he worked at a water plant, and his wife Sun Qinqin had no formal job and had been doing various casual jobs outside. Grandpa and grandma are taken care of by them. Grandpa uses his retirement salary to subsidize his family every month. Although the money is not much, the life of the five young and old is very harmonious. My aunt takes good care of them all.
After grandpa and grandma arrived, they all praised Li Mu's college entrance examination results, especially grandma. She didn't let go of Li Mu's hand when she entered the door.
Li Mu grew up with his grandmother because of his parents' work, and his grandmother doted on him.
"Xiao Mu scored so high in the exam, where are you going to go to college?" Grandma held Li Mu's hand, looking proud.
Li Mu replied with a smile: "Grandma, I'm going to go to school in Yanjing."
"Hello Yanjing, a big city!" Grandma squinted her eyes and smiled broadly: "In our family, Xiao Mu is the most promising."
My uncle pointed at his twelve-year-old son Xiao Hao, who had just graduated from elementary school, and said, "Haohao, do you see, your cousin will be your role model in the future!"
"Last year, he said that my sister was my role model." Xiao Hao curled his lips, then snatched Li Mu from grandma's hand, pulled him aside, and asked with a smile: "Brother, when are you free, take me there?" My dad doesn’t give me money to play CS in an Internet cafe, so I’m almost bored to death at home during the summer vacation.”
"If your dad doesn't give you money, just stay at home."
Li Mu looked at his cousin with a smile. A few years later, this boy would be a great person. It wasn't because of how good he was, but because he got pregnant with someone he dated during the second year of high school. He lied to his father during the summer vacation. The school charged for tuition, and then secretly took his girlfriend to have an abortion. As a result, his sister-in-law, who was also Li Mu's aunt, went to the hospital to deliver meals to her father-in-law who was hospitalized. When she saw him entering the hospital with a crying girl, she followed him out of curiosity. .
The final result was that Xiao Hao was beaten by his father at home, but his grandfather saved him. In the end, this kid's college entrance examination was also very bad. As soon as he graduated from high school, his father paid to send him to the army. In the end, he has been He stayed in the army and was said to be doing well in the army.
At this time, when Xiao Hao saw that Li Mu did not agree to his request, he curled his lips and said, "You are the only brother of mine. It's really not interesting!"
Li Mu asked: "How can I say something interesting?"
"Give me ten yuan." Xiao Hao almost blurted out: "You give me ten yuan, and I will pay you back double when I make money in the future!"
Li Mu had a look of helplessness on his face. This kid had been a genius since he was a child. When he was in junior high school a few years ago, this kid would come to stick to him during the holidays and make his head grow bigger. Xiao Hao then came up with a solution for himself: He You don’t have to cling to yourself, but you have to pay him fifty cents every day, once every two days.
However, Xiao Hao is still very affectionate towards Li Mu. As he said, he has two sisters in the Xiao family, one from his uncle's family, one from his aunt's family, and a younger brother from his sister-in-law's family. Although he and his They are about the same age, but the two of them have not been able to pee in the same pot since they were young. As for his mother, he is the oldest of the boys, so after all calculations, he really only has one brother, Li Mu, and he has always been there since he grew up. Have great respect for him.
Li Mu thought for a while and said to Xiao Hao: "Boy, if you can study hard, work hard in a few years to get into a good university. In the future, your brother will pay for your college education; but if you really feel that you are not a good person, For those who are studying, don’t make any decisions in a hurry after high school. Come to me first. If you encounter any difficulties that you can’t solve by yourself, remember to come to me.”
Xiao Hao was confused when he heard this, but when he heard that his brother actually promised to support him in college, he gave him a thumbs up and praised: "Brother, you are really interesting, but it will take many years to go to college, so you should give him money first. I’ll give you ten dollars!”
Li Mu was stunned. When Xiao Hao saw that he didn't answer, he hurriedly said: "Brother, let me tell you the truth. I am going to treat Liu Mengmeng, the beauty of our class, to drink pearl milk tea. Have you ever tasted it? There are soybeans in it." The bean stuff tastes almost like QQ candy."
Li Mu smacked his lips, that's great! He was only in sixth grade at the beginning of school, and he already had this thought. It was estimated that he would not be able to avoid his father's beatings in the future.
However, Li Mu was not stingy. He took a look and saw that no one was paying attention to the two of them, so he took out a banknote from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Hao.
"You have to be willing to spend money chasing a girl. What's the point of drinking rubbish milk tea? Go treat her to a KFC meal."
Xiao Hao was stunned to see that his cousin was holding a hundred yuan in his hand! One hundred dollars!
He has never personally controlled the fate of even ten yuan when he has grown up. Although he can earn hundreds of New Year's money every year, it cannot enter his pocket at all. These days, a primary school student who goes out to carry five yuan is a big money, and if he carries ten yuan, he will be wealthy. Yuan Yuan is a wealthy person!
Xiao Hao was so excited that he was trembling a little, and his upper and lower lips were fighting: "Brother, are you really giving it to me?"
Li Mu nodded and put the money into his hand: "Hide it. If your father confiscates it, don't come to me for it again."
Xiao Hao felt as if he was taking a breath of spring breeze in the cold winter. Li Mu's image became extremely tall in his eyes, and there were even tears rolling in his eyes.
After a while, Xiao Hao clasped his fists at Li Mu: "Brother, I will never say thank you for your kindness. If I can be of use to my brother in the future, I will be ready to go through swords and fire without hesitation!"
Li Mu sighed in his heart, this guy is young and has such a strong aura of martial arts. He is probably destined to have no chance of learning in this life.
