Chapter 881 City people are so generous
Privately, he also said, "Brother, you've done a good deed by adopting an orphan. It's a way of accumulating good karma for yourself. Although the child isn't your biological son, he's very filial. When you pass away... Third Sister, you should look around and try to find them a stable and decent job."
"Okay, big brother."
If everything is true, their future will be better.
Unfortunately, their relationship was fake; it was a scam from the start.
Those three out-of-towners were easy to fool; they forgot that Old Zhang's third sister was a local.
It's only a little over an hour's drive from the city center, and it would take even less if you drove your own car.
Now that Lao Zhang has resolved his inner conflict with them, his third sister must take care of him frequently in his final days.
They left shortly after lunch; the conditions here were too poor, and they couldn't get used to it.
However, before leaving, they left Old Zhang a lot of money and told him to use whatever medicine he needed and not to worry about the money.
They were all well-off and very generous with money when giving it to Lao Zhang.
After they left, Old Zhang counted the money and gave each of them a thousand, which made Fang Qing and Yang Guangzong green with envy.
Four thousand yuan, that's four thousand yuan!
Although wages have increased, ordinary workers only earn a little over a hundred yuan a day. Four thousand yuan is enough for an ordinary person to work for two years without eating or drinking. They told Lao Zhang to take it to buy medicine.
So much money spent on medicine?
Damn, how could brothers and sisters who haven't been in contact for decades give so much?
City people are city people, they wouldn't even consider this in the countryside.
“Chenchen still has money, Dad. I think they each gave two hundred.”
Fang Qing unconsciously put her hand on her purse.
At this point, Old Zhang said, "Let's just say what's given to Chenchen is Chenchen's."
What?
Fang Qing's eyes lit up; she hadn't expected Old Zhang to be so generous.
But Yang Guangzong was in distress.
"No, Dad, this is eight hundred, not eight yuan. We've already given Fang Qing and her son ten yuan for their acting fee, why are you giving them eight hundred too?"
Old Zhang said nonchalantly, "I'm already this old, what's the point of keeping so much money? I can't possibly spend it all anyway. Give it to him if you want, but..."
He changed the subject and looked at Fang Qing, saying, "If they come again, you and Chenchen can continue to cooperate."
Give me 800 yuan, what can't I do?
Fang Qing smiled broadly and nodded repeatedly.
"Hey, from now on, you're Chenchen's grandpa."
Forget pretending to be a grandfather, she would rather this old Zhang be Chenchen's real grandfather.
This grandfather is much better than Chenchen's real grandfather.
Yang Guangzong was so angry that he kept snorting.
Damn it, he hasn't even been a son for long, and now he has a grandson.
Will Old Zhang just give the money to Wang Chenchen directly in the future?
Eight hundred? How long would he have to work to earn eight hundred? That's insane.
Old Zhang's bold actions also aroused Fang Qing's greed.
Why should that idiot Yang Guangzong take 200,000?
If Yang Guangzong can take it, why can't Fang Qing?
As a result, Fang Qing became even more attentive to Lao Zhang, treating him like her own father.
No, she wouldn't even serve her own father with this much care.
Fang Qing has been focused on serving Old Zhang lately, and has even forgotten about harassing Lu Jiangting.
Their status in Lao Zhang's heart rose, which made Yang Guangzong feel threatened.
That day, he found Fang Qing and said, "What do you mean by fawning over my father every day?"
Fang Qing avoided him and continued with her work. "What do you mean? I'm doing this for money, that's what I mean."
"Tsk tsk, that's all the money you make in a month, is it worth treating like royalty?"
Fang Qing pouted, "What's it to you? I'm doing what I want."
"You..." Yang Guangzong was furious and threatened, "Don't force me to kill you."
Fang Qing dismissed it with disdain.
The phrase "ruthless and vicious" is quite fitting to describe Yang Guangzong.
But the prerequisite is being poor.
Yang Guangzong used to be barefoot and not afraid of those wearing shoes, so poor he didn't have a penny to his name. Back then, she was afraid of him.
Now? Hmph, he's eyeing Old Zhang's money; he'd never be willing to risk it all.
This is a society governed by the rule of law.
"Come on, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You really think you're Old Zhang's dutiful son? What, are you so wary of me because you think your inheritance rights are unstable?"
"You're talking nonsense. Old Zhang said he wants the neighborhood committee to be a witness so that all his things can be left to me in the future."
"Ha, we'll talk about that after he's dead. He's still alive, so he can give his things to whomever he wants."
After saying that, he pushed aside the angry Yang Guangzong and went into the courtyard.
"Uncle Zhang, what would you like to eat today?"
Old Zhang doesn't go out much anymore.
When I don't go for a checkup, I just feel a little uncomfortable, but I can bear it.
But ever since the test results came out, I've felt my health deteriorating day by day.
It's only been a little over a month, and he already feels like his body is failing him.
Of course, the body won't actually deteriorate so quickly with this medicine; the psychological effect also plays a role.
After spending some time together with these strange people... Yang Guangzong wondered why he felt that Old Zhang's gaze towards Fang Qing was a little strange.
Moreover, Fang Qing took good care of him, and Lao Zhang often gave her money, saying it was for buying groceries.
But they gave too much; we couldn't possibly spend it all.
He told Lao Zhang, who generously said it was fine, since he wouldn't live much longer anyway and had more money than he could spend.
Old man, what do you mean by that?
You're dying, but I'm alive and well, aren't I?
Can I possibly not spend it all?
He was unhappy, but he couldn't say it directly, so he could only try to get through to Fang Qing.
After talking to Fang Qing several times, Fang Qing got impatient and said directly, "Hmph, don't think that Lao Zhang's money is yours. If you push me too far, I'll marry Lao Zhang and make sure you don't get a single hair."
Although she said it in anger, she had actually thought about it.
Anyway, Old Zhang won't live much longer, so once he dies, I can inherit everything from him.
After seeing Old Zhang off, she went to find Lu Jiangting...
She thought to herself that once she brought her dowry of 200,000 yuan to Lu Jiangting, he would definitely not refuse her again.
Of course, her idea wasn't just a one-sided enthusiasm from the barber; Old Zhang had genuinely given her that signal.
He has said more than once that he likes her and Chenchen, and that he would die without regrets if they were his family.
But her words made Yang Guangzong feel a great sense of crisis.
It wasn't just Fang Qing who received the strange signal. Yang Guangzong was in such a hurry to find Fang Qing because he also sensed that Lao Zhang was not simple with Fang Qing and Wang Chenchen.
Two hundred thousand, such a huge temptation...
He's been Zhang's son for so long, how could he be willing to let Fang Qing and her son steal his thunder?
Unwilling to give up, he dug out the address and phone number that Old Zhang's third sister had left behind when she left last time and called her.
She said that if anything happened to Lao Zhang, he should call them.
