Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

Zhang Qianxiu didn't sit with Huang En's family for long, and he couldn't sit still when something like this happened at home.

He knew what Huang Ercai was thinking, but he didn't blame Huang Ercai for this kind of thing.

On the way back, Zhang Qianxiu called Zhang Lanmei.

Zhang Lanmei is still doing fine in Pengcheng. With her own office, she can make outside calls in her office.

Soon, Zhang Lanmei answered the phone: "Hello...Hello!"

Zhang Qianxiu said: "Sister, it's me, do you know about father?"

"What's wrong with dad? He called me only two days ago." Zhang Lanmei became nervous.

Zhang Qianxiu said: "He gambled and lost a lot. I don't know how much. It is estimated that there are hundreds of thousands."

Zhang Lanmei was relieved when he heard that it was a gambling, but when he heard that he had lost hundreds of thousands of dollars, his heart was agitated: "How could he lose so much money? No wonder he asked me to transfer money to him."

"How much did you transfer to him?" Zhang Qianxiu asked.

"Thirteen thousand in these two months or so," Zhang Lanmei said.

Zhang Qianxiu knows that these ten thousand and three are probably owned by his sister. My sister is doing well in Pengcheng. Although she is still working in the factory, she has a group of stable customers. It’s a lot of money, but it’s limited to work for someone, and it’s not bad to earn more than 10,000 in less than a year.

Zhang Qianxiu let out a long sigh and said, "Don't transfer money to him in the future, he won't be able to take the money, and I will pay them monthly living expenses on time."

Zhang Lanmei said: "I know this. Even if I want to give it to them in the future, I will give them a little for New Year's Day or buy them something."

"Why don't I pay back the money with you! I will bear half of it."

Zhang Qianxiu said: "No! You are just starting out now, when you are saving capital, I'm fine. If you plan to do your own business and need money, just tell me. I have millions of dollars at any time. If you can take it out, if you want tens of millions, you can just say hello to me a few days in advance."

Zhang Lanmei said: "No, your money is yours. Although my sister is not as good as you now, I still know what I want to do and how to do it."

Zhang Lanmei has really changed a lot. From the beginning, she was soft and weak to resist, and now she can control her own life. The changes in this process are very, very big.

Zhang Qianxiu is also very happy about her sister's change. As long as her sister has goals and knows what she should do, money is not that important.

Zhang Qianxiu said: "That's fine, I have to do with the family. If you really need my help, you must tell me."

"Okay, Dad's affairs are handled, give me a call." Zhang Lanmei said.

Zhang Qianxiu hung up the phone and walked towards the house, wondering how to solve this matter.

When he got home, Zhang Aibing was sitting in front of the makeshift house smoking a cigarette. He lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing Zhang Qianxiu's return, Zhang Aibing hesitated for a moment, and tentatively asked, "How come it's been so long?"

Zhang Qianxiu felt very complicated when he saw his father like this. He knew that his father was now guilty, and he was afraid that he would learn from others about his gambling debts.

Zhang Qianxiu put down the greetings from Zhang Shunfa and Huang Ercai in his hand, then sat down next to his father and said, "I made two phone calls. It took some time."

"I called my sister."

Zhang Aibing's face stiffened slightly, and then he said "Oh", "I want to make a phone call to ask."

"Dad, did you ask your sister to take the money?" Zhang Qianxiu asked.

Zhang Qianxiu didn't want to expose Zhang Aibing directly, and wanted Zhang Aibing to speak out by himself, which would be regarded as giving Zhang Aibing a little face.

Although the two are father and son, the relationship between father and son is also a matter of face.

Zhang Aibing lowered his head and hesitated for a long time before saying, "It's not about it, I'll save it for her, afraid he won't be able to save money outside."

"The money will still be returned to her in the future."

Zhang Qianxiu frowned, the anger in his heart was about to be suppressed, he took a deep breath, took out a cigarette, lit a cigarette, took a sip, and said, "Dad, sister can make some money now."

"But she has her own plan. The money she gave you is for her own business. She started to do some business on her own since last year."

"At that time, she didn't have enough contacts in the business field, and she didn't have enough funds. Although she made a lot of money, she usually frugal, just to save her money."

"She doesn't need to help her at home, but we can't hold her back, don't you?"

Zhang Aibing lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly.

Zhang Qianxiu added: "The house is still decorated according to the previously negotiated style. The material master has already been shipped to the county. After the Dragon Boat Festival, it will be shipped to start the renovation. It will be finished in about a month soon."

"It will also be summer, and I should be able to live in for a month or two."

"I have already agreed with Master Wang about the cost of this decoration, and will pay the bill directly with me when the time comes."

Zhang Qianxiu said this, waiting for his father to say.

Zhang Aibing said "Oh" and said, "The decoration was pretty good as before."

Zhang Qianxiu saw that his father was reluctant to be honest, and he asked, "Dad, do you have anything to say to me?"

Zhang Aibing didn't know if it was a dry throat or what, so he cleaned his throat vigorously, pretending to be calm, and said, "The family is pretty good, and your brother and sister are promising. There is nothing to say."

Zhang Qianxiu was really disappointed in his heart. He used to think that his father was old-fashioned and wanted to save face. Now he feels that his father is more than that, he is also very weak, and he doesn't even have the courage to admit or face it.

Zhang Qianxiu took a deep breath and said, "Dad, what's the matter with your gambling?"

"Gambling? No! Don't listen to those people's nonsense, how can I gamble, at most I play cards with others, a day's winning or losing is only a few dollars, our family is not short of this money." Zhang Aibing strongly denied.

The name card is a local card type, and the spread is not too wide. Basically, it is more popular in Xiaojiang Province, and there are similarities in several surrounding provinces, but the gameplay is somewhat different.

Zhang Qianxiu felt extremely disappointed with his father’s attitude. He could no longer suppress the anger and irritation in his heart, and his tone of speech became direct, even with a bit of reprimand: "Dad, you don’t have to guess who told me this. No one in the village knows that you and your sister took money. I felt that something was wrong with you when I came back. I asked a lot of people along the way, and some of them are still covering you."

"Until now, I only know that you lost the bet. I don't know how much you lost."

"I can pay you back the money, but you have to make sure that you won't be gambled anymore in the future."

Zhang Aibing was silent for a while, believing in the fact that he was gambling money.

"How much did you lose? Who did you lose to? The next day we will pay back the money. It will be fine for you to enjoy the good fortune at home in the future. Don't toss about it." Although Zhang Qianxiu had a fire in his heart, he still managed to control his anger as much as possible.

Who knows, Zhang Aibing is still getting angry: "You don't need to worry about this, I will take care of it myself."

Zhang Qianxiu had been suppressing his anger. Hearing Zhang Aibing's words, he immediately broke out: "You handle it? What do you do with it? How much money can you make a month?"

"Just like you are, you can't afford your gambling without eating or drinking forever?"

"Dad, it doesn't matter if you do something wrong, you have to dare to face it if you do something wrong."

Zhang Aibing didn't dare to look directly at Zhang Qianxiu. Perhaps it was Zhang Qianxiu's words that hurt his self-esteem. At this time, he raised his head and blushed and shouted, "I don't think you have the ability, ability, and can't make money?"

"No matter how good you are, you were born to me and raised by me."

Zhang Qianxiu saw that his father had not repented at this time, and was afraid that others would say he was impatient, and he was disappointed and annoyed: "Dad, put away your little self-esteem!"

"No one looks down on you, it's your pride."

"Can you think about it for your family? Don't be okay to toss some moths out?"

Zhang Aibing said with a dissatisfied expression: "What do you mean by this? I toss? What am I not doing for your good?"

"In the past, there was a little money for meat at home, and your mother and I were reluctant to eat it. We gave it to your sister and brother.

"Now that you two are promising, you know that you despise me!"

"I'm going to gamble just to make more money, so that your sister and brother can relax a little bit?"

"I want to really take care of myself, isn't it good for me to eat and drink at home every day?"

Zhang Qianxiu frowned. In the past, the family was poor and had a little good. Parents would keep it for their children. Although they were a bit patriarchal, they still took special care of their two siblings in this respect and treated them indifferently.

Zhang Qianxiu felt that his father looked at him when his family was poor. He was indeed a good father, standing upright and desperately caring for the family.

But when the family has money, all his problems will be exposed.

The father has a strong self-esteem, for fear that others will look down on him, even in front of his children, he will have to be strong. In the past, the family was poor and neither Zhang Qianxiu nor Zhang Lanmei could make any money. His father was responsible for being strong, because he was not strong, and no one would stand up to help their family. Life at home would only be more difficult. To be strong is to be strong.

Now that he has money, he doesn't need to be aggressive anymore, even if he is aggressive to do farm work, it will only make people feel distressed.

But his father chose another path. He tried to prove that he could still take care of the family and still make money. That was gambling.

If Zhang Aibing simply relies on work to make money, with his abilities, no matter how hard they work, the money he makes is just a little drizzle in front of Zhang Qianxiu and Zhang Lanmei, and it is not worth mentioning.

Zhang Aibing knew that he couldn't make much money by relying solely on work, so he gambled.

Zhang Qianxiu felt that his father was unreasonable: "Dad, don't use these words to disguise your vanity and so-called self-esteem."

"To put it bluntly, you just want to prove that you can make money."

"You just want to tell us that you are still the head of the family and you have to listen to everything."

"My sister and I earn a lot, and you don't have the confidence to speak, so you want to earn a little more to support the little self-esteem in your heart."

"This is **** self-esteem."

Zhang Aibing is not very old now. He is in his early forties and is in his prime. Logically speaking, his 30s and 40s are the peak age of a man.

But Zhang Aibing has a pair of very powerful sons and daughters. Whatever he does now has very little impact on the family.

Zhang Aibing couldn't accept that he was about to listen to his children at the age of forty.

Zhang Aibing was like a cat with its tail stepped on, and jumped up immediately: "Zhang Qianxiu, what do you mean? I'm your Laozi, do you talk to Laozi like this?"
