Hearing Enjin's road to riches, Gu Meng's brows became more and more tight.
"So you first went to Macau to gamble and made your first pot of gold." Gu Meng concluded for him, and said, "Then you went to Wall Street to make money in the financial circle, and by speculating in futures, you doubled your money tenfold?"
Enjin observed his expression, nodded cautiously, and asked instinctively: "Gu Meng, are you upset?"
Gu Meng knows that for a genius, as long as he finds a way to make money, wealth can be said to be at his fingertips.
He looked at the unfamiliar environment around him, sighed, and felt uncomfortable staying here, so he took out his mobile phone.
Gu Meng looked down at her phone, turned around and walked down the hill, and said to Enjin without raising her head, "Go home first."
"Then here..." Enjin stood there, staring blankly at Gu Meng's back.
"If you like it, stay here." Gu Meng said lightly, walking non-stop along the way.
Enjin paused for a moment, and hurriedly followed.
"That car..." Enjin looked back at the shiny sports car.
"If you can't bear it, just drive away." Gu Meng put down her phone, looked at the mountain road ahead, and then added, "But don't stop downstairs at my house."
Enjin understood instantly, abandoned the car resolutely, stretched her long legs and walked quickly, and came to Gu Meng's side.
The man tugged at his sleeve and corrected him in a low voice: "That's my home too."
Gu Meng glanced at him sideways, the coldness on his face dissipated a bit, and he returned to his usual gentle appearance.
"Don't have another time." Gu Meng took En Jin's hand instead, and the two interlocked their fingers, walking down the winding mountain road.
"En." Enjin replied vaguely.
"Don't do anything else next time?" Gu Meng asked him.
"..." Enjin lowered her head, speechless.
Actually don't know.
He thought he did the right thing, but Gu Meng didn't look happy.
The mountain air is crisp and the wind correspondingly much colder.
The tip of Gu Meng's nose was blown a little red. He looked at Enjin and saw that the man was still wearing a suit in the winter. He was afraid that he would be cold, so he took off his plaid scarf, put it on Enjin's shoulder, and walked around indiscriminately. two laps.
Enjin touched the warm scarf, looked at Gu Meng, and said, "I'm not cold..."
"You're cold, I feel cold just looking at you." Gu Meng frowned, and ordered, "Wear it."
"..."
Enjin silently put down her hands and put on the scarf obediently.
There is a kind of "cold", called "Gu Meng thinks you are cold".
Along the way, Gu Meng calmed down, and he said frankly to Enjin: "Next time, if you want to go somewhere, don't leave without saying goodbye, if you still treat me as..." He pursed his lips, selected his words, and continued, "If If you still treat me as a family member, you have to report the itinerary to me, and I will be very worried when you are not around."
Enjin didn't make any excuses, and obediently admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry, I won't do it next time."
The winding mountain road is very empty, only two men walking along it holding hands, looking like a landscape painting from a distance.
Gu Meng squeezed Enjin's palm and said, "You can disagree with me, but I still want to say that whether it is gambling or speculating in futures, it is a kind of speculation. Just do these things with money, and if you fall into it, it will be difficult to get out."
Whether it is gambling or other opportunistic things, it is easy for people to indulge in it. In addition to strength, luck also plays a large role. However, people's luck will not always be good.
Although she knows that the man is not really a fool, Gu Meng is still afraid that he will go astray and form wrong values.
"I won't fall into it." Enjin hastily explained in order to reassure Gu Meng.
The voice still sounded so gentle, like a velvet snow.
He said: "First of all, I am very smart and can control the winning rate."
"..." Gu Meng couldn't refute, if she wasn't smart, she wouldn't be able to earn three million in a short period of time.
dollars.
"Besides, I don't like doing those things, so I won't be addicted to them." Enjin continued, "I'll only do it this time. I won't do it after buying a big house for Gu Meng. I won't go anywhere in the future. I just want to stay at your side."
Hearing this, Gu Meng sighed and stopped.
He turned to face Enjin, and took the man's other hand.
The two stood facing each other on the side of the Panshan Highway. Gu Meng looked up at Enjin and said softly, "I will support you in the future, so you don't need to force yourself to do things you don't like for the sake of money. You shouldn't waste it on that kind of use, life is short, just focus on the things you are interested in, remember?"
Enjin lowered her eyelashes to cover the sudden deep gaze, and when she raised her eyes again, she regained her usual ignorance and trust, and said, "Thank you, Gu Meng."
Gu Meng smiled, knowing that Enjin had accepted his opinion, her mood was completely relieved.
He became relaxed and said: "Let's go, go home and cook something delicious for you."
Eunjin laughed along with him.
When they got down the mountain, the car that Gu Meng had called with her mobile phone arrived just in time.
After getting in the car, Gu Meng thought of a question and said, "By the way, is there anything you want to do in the future?"
"Yes." Enjin said.
When asked half a month ago, Enjin was still at a loss and had no direction. Gu Meng didn't expect him to find something interesting so quickly, so she couldn't help asking curiously: "What is it?"
"Sell potatoes." Enjin said.
"..." Gu Meng looked at him for a long while, wondering why Enjin had this... unpopular hobby.
Then, I saw him leaning back on the back of the chair, covering his face with one hand, and said, "Just be happy, the most important thing is to be happy..."
When the car drove up the elevated road, Enjin still didn't forget the cars and houses left on the mountainside, and asked Gu Meng what to do with those things.
Gu Meng thought for a while, and asked Enjin what he thought if he donated all the money he earned these days.
Enjin didn't care, and said, "Gu Meng decides, everything belongs to Gu Meng anyway."
Gu Meng rubbed the man's hair, smiled softly, and said, "Thank you."
That night, Gu Meng saw Enjin standing in front of the washing machine with a pair of trousers in her hand, holding something like a card in her hand, looking down at it carefully with her head down.
Because the washing machine was of a certain age, it would "boom" when it was stirred casually, making the balcony very lively.
Even if the tall man stood there in a baggy white old man's shirt and big colored pants, he couldn't hide his good figure like a model.
Gu Meng wiped her wet hair with a towel, couldn't help but leaned over, and hugged Enjin from behind.
Then put his chin on the man's shoulder, looked forward, and said, "What are you looking at?"
Enjin let out a "huh" and turned her face to look at Gu Meng, the corners of her raised eyes elongated because of this.
He frowned in distress, and said, "Gu Meng, you're here, and I don't know what to do with this thing?"
Gu Meng smiled and said, "What is it?"
Looking at Enjin's hand, it was a welfare lottery ticket stub.
Remembering that Enjin had bought a lottery ticket before leaving, I still asked him to borrow ten yuan.
Gu Meng was puzzled, looked sideways at Enjin, and said, "What's wrong?"
Enjin said, "I won the lottery."
"..." Gu Meng was unprepared, hit by the sudden news of winning the lottery, she opened her mouth, but couldn't find a sound for a long time.
Enjin added, "I just found out that I won the lottery the day before yesterday. At that time, I felt that the money was too little and I didn't worry about it, so I forgot."
Gu Meng came back to her senses and thought to herself, maybe the one who won ten or twenty yuan won the fifty yuan.
Stimulated by today's three million yuan, his first reaction was that he won some kind of big prize, but there is no such thing as such luck.
Thinking of this, he calmed down and asked Enjin, "What prize did you win? Anyway, the store is not far from home, so you can exchange it when you buy vegetables."
Enjin lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then turned over the ticket stub in her hand, as if she had gone through some self-struggle, but finally saw him crumpling the ticket stub into a ball and holding it in the palm of her hand, shaking her head, her expression relaxed.
He said: "Forget it, it's nothing, just won the special prize, 700,000."
"..."
A sense of dizziness struck, if Gu Meng hadn't been leaning on Enjin, she might not be able to stand still.
Gu Meng grabbed En Jin's hand and turned him around, unable to speak clearly, said: "Wait... wait... 700,000, why do you..."
The ticket stub is still in Enjin's hands.
Enjin glanced at that hand, then put her hand outside the balcony railing, and said to Gu Meng seriously: "Gu Meng, you said you can't speculate, I go to gamble, play finance, buy money to make quick money. Lottery tickets are all wrong, so I won’t take the money, just pretend nothing happened.”
It can be seen that Enjin is a good boy who knows how to reflect.
"No, no, baby! Calm down!" Gu Meng looked at his hand hanging outside the railing, her heart rose into her throat, and she said hastily, "This...you earned it by luck, how can you be a Nothing happened?!"
Enjin was very stubborn, and said: "No, you said that to make money, you have to be down-to-earth and work hard to get rich. Don't worry, I won't do such opportunistic things in the future."
After finishing speaking, before Gu Meng could speak, she let go of her hand, and the ball of paper was swept away by the cold wind of winter night.
"..."
Standing in front of the railing, Gu Meng watched helplessly as the 700,000 lottery ticket drifted away with the wind, and her whole body was petrified.
On the other hand, Enjin felt relaxed. The man turned around and pressed a few buttons. After the washing machine stopped, he threw the trousers into the washing bucket and hummed happily.
"Little rabbit be good, open the door… "
After taking care of the clothes, Enjin turned to Gu Meng, smiled softly, and said, "Gu Meng, look, I have reformed myself, am I very sensible? Starting tomorrow, I will sell potatoes well, and we will work hard to get rich together. "
Gu Meng wanted to cry without tears, wiped her face, and said in a sobbing voice: "Sensible...you are the most sensible kid I've ever met..."
As the Spring Festival approached, after Gu Meng was busy with the kindergarten, she took Enjin to finish the donation.
Coming out of the building of the charity organization, Gu Meng sighed deeply, looking at the blue and white sky in winter.
He and Enjin returned to the state of zero deposits again.
What three million. dollars.
What seven hundred thousand.
It's all like a dream.
Enjin took Gu Meng's hand, secretly revealed the two black plum candies in his palm, and said, "Shh, I took two more in that person's office."
"..." Gu Meng glanced at him, took one from his hand, tore off the package and bit into her mouth.
The sweet and sour taste made him squint his eyes.
"Go home?" Enjin threw another candy into her mouth.
Gu Meng looked at the time, it was almost noon, and he looked at the wide road in front of him, with cars coming and going.
He suggested: "Go and see Peter, I haven't contacted him for a long time, and I don't know how it is now."
Enjin thought for a while, then tilted her head, and said, "Peter?"
Gu Meng walked down the steps in front of the building first, and said: "You may not remember, I always called you brother before, go and meet him."
According to memory, Gu Meng and En Jin came to the community where Peter Pan lived.
The corridors are dilapidated and narrow, and Enjin walks in it, as if trying to fill up the space.
After going up to the fourth floor, Gu Meng looked at the house number, confirmed the room, and then raised her hand to knock on the door.
After a while, the door opened.
Gu Meng looked up and was stunned.
The other party was obviously taken aback.
The person who opened the door was not Peter Pan, but Gu Meng was definitely no stranger.
While the two were looking at each other, Enjin followed to the fourth floor.
The young man standing at the door looked away from Gu Meng and looked behind him.
At this moment, Peter Pan jumped out of the bedroom with one foot, and looked at the situation at the door.
"elder brother!"
"elder brother!"
Two voices sounded in the house at the same time.
The author has something to say:
Happy National day!
