Chapter 762 The Miserable Old Man Yu
After playing all day last night, today Zhou Chen brought his two children, Yu Chen and Zhang Ziming, to the library.
However, this is not a regular library, but a children's library. It has books and a place to play. It is not only convenient for children to read books, but also allows children to play in their leisure time. Therefore, this kind of library is still very popular with children. An entertainment venue.
When they arrived at the library, Zhou Chen and Li Qian no longer took care of the two children, but let them read and play by themselves. They sat in the rest area and chatted.
"Yu Huanshui, are you always so leisurely?"
"That's not true. I just quit my job not long ago and plan to do something on my own. However, because I have been busy lately and have been delayed, I have been more free recently."
Li Qian suddenly became interested: "Really? Then what kind of business do you want to do?"
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "I have given some thought to this. I was also doing market research some time ago, but I haven't made a final decision on what specific aspects to do."
Li Qian nodded and said, "Oh, then if you need help, you must ask."
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "If necessary, I will speak up."
While he was talking, his cell phone rang suddenly. When he saw that it was Old Man Yu, Zhou Chen frowned slightly and looked at Li Qian apologetically.
"I'm going out to take a call."
"It doesn't matter. You can go answer the phone. I'll just keep an eye on the two children."
Zhou Chen smiled apologetically, then answered the phone and walked out of the library.
As soon as he left, the mother of a child came next to Li Qian.
"Hello."
Li Qian looked at the woman who suddenly came over to say hello, and greeted her very politely: "Hello."
This woman was in her thirties and looked very fashionable. She smiled and asked Li Qian, "My surname is Gu. Are you here to play with your children too?"
Feeling that the woman had no ill intentions, Li Qian smiled and replied: "Yes, hello, my surname is Li, are you bringing a child here too?"
"Well, if you don't bring your children to a place like ours, who would come here? Don't you think so?"
"Yes Yes."
"However, I still rarely see couples bringing their children together. It seems that your husband really cares about you and your children. Unlike my husband, I asked him to accompany me here even if he died. ,I'm furious."
When Li Qian heard this, she quickly corrected her: "You misunderstood. He and I are not husband and wife. We only brought our children here because my son and his son are classmates and best friends."
"Ah, really? I'm sorry, I thought you were a couple. I'm so sorry."
"it does not matter."
Li Qian still kept her smile, but looked at Zhou Chen who was answering the phone outside unconsciously.
Zhou Chen listened impatiently to Old Man Yu's chatter on the phone. From beginning to end, Old Man Yu was asking about the house, asking if he had taken anyone to see it, and when he could sell the house.
He said a few words impatiently and then hung up the phone.
He knew without thinking that it must be Old Man Yu's current wife Gao Hongmei who asked Old Man Yu to beat him. It was obvious that these two people did not believe him.
But he didn't care. He didn't care whether the two people believed him or not. Anyway, his purpose of sending Old Man Yu to the hospital was achieved, and he also did his own thing. He didn't have to worry about it next, I believe things would be fine. Develop as he wants.
Just on Monday, the results of Old Man Yu's examination at the hospital came out. He was not seriously ill, nor was he pancreatic cancer. After three days of treatment, his symptoms had subsided one by one, and he has now recovered more than half of his symptoms. , you can be discharged from the hospital in a day or two at most.
Originally, Old Man Yu wanted to stay for two more days because Gao Hongmei's attitude towards him during the few days he was hospitalized was much better than when he was at home.
Although he also knew that Gao Hongmei was doing it for the sake of money, he still enjoyed the care very much, so he wanted to continue living in the hospital. Anyway, he thought that his son would double the money and return it to him in the future. He didn't care at all. in a hurry.
He is not in a hurry, but Gao Hongmei is. She is still worried about what old man Yu said. Because she has been hospitalized for the past few days, her savings have suddenly dropped by several thousand yuan. Moreover, she didn't even bring her medical insurance card with her in time. I can't reimburse myself. I spend thousands a day, so I can't be in a hurry.
So at her insistence, they were discharged from the hospital before noon on Tuesday.
When they were discharged from the hospital, Old Man Yu called Zhou Chen and asked him to drive to pick them up. The call was connected, but Zhou Chen said that he had gone to other places and would not be back for a few days, so he asked them to either stay in a hotel first or go to the hospital. Go back to your hometown first.
This made Gao Hongmei angry. She originally wanted to go to Zhou Chen's house to have a look, but who knew that Old Man Yu didn't have the key at all and couldn't get in even if he wanted to.
He called Zhou Chen and asked him to notify the property management company to ask someone to open the door, but Zhou Chen immediately hung up the phone and couldn't get through if he called again.
In fact, Zhou Chen has not left Jialin City in the past few days, but has been paying attention to Old Man Yu and Gao Hongmei.
He was hiding away on purpose. As long as he didn't show up, Old Man Yu and Gao Hongmei would definitely have to start fighting.
The fact was almost as he thought. Gao Hongmei, who stayed in the hotel for two days, couldn't bear it anymore. She had a big quarrel with Old Man Yu, and then left Jialin City and returned to her hometown, leaving only Old Man Yu. Alone, waiting for Zhou Chen to come back.
In the same scene, when Zhou Chen returned home, he saw Old Man Yu huddled at the door of his house again, and he looked even more embarrassed than last time.
"Hey, why are you sleeping here?"
If Zhou Chen were to call Old Man Yu dad, he would definitely not be able to say it out loud.
Hearing Zhou Chen's voice, Old Man Yu jumped up, excitedly rushed towards Zhou Chen, grabbed Zhou Chen's arms, and shook him vigorously.
"Huanshui, where have you been these past few days? I couldn't get through when I called you. I asked the management to open the door. Even though I said I was your dad, they didn't let me open the door. Your aunt was so angry that she went home. It’s just that I don’t trust you, so I’ve been waiting here. Now that I see you’re fine, I feel relieved.”
If Zhou Chen hadn't already known who he was, he might have been deceived by his words.
Pushing Old Yu away calmly, Zhou Chen opened the door: "Let's go in and talk later."
As soon as he walked into the house, Old Man Yu rushed into the kitchen and drank heavily from the tap. Then he rummaged through the cabinets and found the instant noodles he had bought before. Without soaking them in water, he opened them and wolfed them down.
"Why are you so hungry? Didn't you eat today?"
Old Man Yu had no time to answer. He finished the bowl of noodles hungrily and swallowed it hard before he spoke.
"It's not that I didn't eat today, I didn't eat yesterday either. Your aunt has gone home and I don't have a penny with me. If you come back two days later, all you will see is my body. Why do you treat me like my son?" of."
Perhaps after eating and regaining some strength, he became rude to Zhou Chen again.
"Didn't she leave you any money?"
Old Man Yu was about to complain, but after looking at Zhou Chen, he still said stubbornly: "She didn't have any money left, she only had money for a ticket home, so I asked her to go back first. She can't live without her at home." Open someone up.”
"Really?" Zhou Chen sneered in his heart, but did not expose Old Man Yu's lie.
Old Man Yu took a sip of water and asked: "I spent 10,000 yuan on the hospital this time, Huanshui, when will your house be sold? Please return the money to me quickly. I can't open the pot even if I don't have any money." "
Having said this, he suddenly seemed to have discovered something, and his eyes glanced around the living room.
"Hey, Huanshui, weren't you the one who came back to clean up the house that day and then brought people to see the house? But I see why this house still seems so messy?"
Zhou Chen shrugged and said, "Because after I came back that day, I suddenly realized that this house cannot be sold for the time being. If this house is sold, Yu Chen will not be able to go to a public school. I have no money now, so I can't go to a public school." We can’t afford a private school, so this house can’t be sold yet, at least until Yu Chen graduates from elementary school.”
In fact, Yu Chen is already in the third grade. This house can be sold, but he does not have a degree for the time being, so selling now is equivalent to selling at a low price. After all, the most important thing about a house in a school district is a degree. Without a degree, there will be fewer people buying it. , the price cannot go up either.
When Old Man Yu heard that Zhou Chen was not going to sell the house, he jumped up excitedly.
"Yu Huanshui, what did you say? Say it again?"
"I'm not going to sell the house anymore, at least within a few years. Do you understand me?"
Old Man Yu pointed at Zhou Chen excitedly: "You bastard, are you kidding me? You said you wanted to sell your house to give me money and give your brother the gift money. Now that you don't sell your house, do you still have money to give to me and your brother? ?”
Zhou Chen said with an indifferent expression: "Then there is no other way. I can only wait until I make money. Your money will be recorded first. As for your son, you go back and tell them that you can leave it for now." Let me get married after I have made enough money for a few years and enough gift money before letting them get married."
"boom."
Old Man Yu directly smashed the instant noodle box in his hand on the ground: "You bastard, what are you talking about? How many years will it take? How can you say such a thing?"
Zhou Chen: "Why can't I tell you? I don't give you less living expenses every month. I also said I would reimburse you for the money you spent on hospitalization. It's just that I don't have the money now. When I have money, I will definitely give you double the money." ; As for your son, it would be good if I could agree to give him money in a few years. You must know that when I got married, I was responsible for all the expenses myself. Have you ever given me a penny?"
Old Man Yu shouted: "I didn't give you money, but didn't your mother give you money? Don't think I don't know. When your mother died, she gave you all the savings in the family, at least ten Tens of thousands, that’s my money, you have to pay it back to me.”
"The money my mother gave me? Did you see it? Do you have evidence? Don't talk nonsense without evidence. Because we are related by blood, I have indulged you again and again. If you continue to slander me like this, I won't even pay for my living expenses." If I don’t give it to you, the worst I can do is find someone to sue me and see if it’s of any use?”
Zhou Chen directly said harsh words. He was really not afraid of falling out with Old Man Yu. If he wanted to fight someone like Old Man Yu, he shouldn't be afraid of losing face.
"You, you, you rebellious son, you little beast, how could I raise such a thing like you? I am ashamed of the ancestors of the Lao Yu family."
Old Man Yu roared angrily, then knelt on the ground crying and howling loudly.
"You are ashamed of your ancestors, but it's not because of me."
Zhou Chen sneered. He knew that old man Yu started crying, making trouble, and hanging himself again. This was an old trick. Yu Huanshui used to do this before, but he didn't do it.
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. You can go back to your hometown tomorrow. When I find a job, I will still pay you living expenses regularly. As for the rest, we'll talk about it later."
With that said, he was about to go back to the bedroom to sleep, but was caught by Old Man Yu.
"Huanshui, you can't do this to me, you can't do this to me. I am your father. If you let me go back like this, your aunt will have to divorce me. If I divorce, I will not live. You You can't just watch me die, I'm your biological father, Huanshui, Huanshui..."
Zhou Chen patted his shoulder and said: "You really don't have to be afraid of this. I am your strong backing. If that woman really wants to divorce you, divorce her and ask her to get out of your house; from now on, I will still give you your living expenses. If you want to live in a nursing home, I can also spend money to send you to a nursing home and have someone serve you. It is definitely more comfortable than having that woman boss you around every day."
"No, you can't do this, Huanshui, I'm your biological father. I can't get divorced, and I can't go to a nursing home. The house at home doesn't belong to me anymore. If I get divorced, I will have no home. Come back, Huanshui, please help dad, please help dad..."
"etc."
Zhou Chen couldn't believe his ears and asked Old Man Yu: "You just said that the house at home no longer belongs to you? Then who does it belong to? Did you transfer the property rights of the house to that person?" A woman, right?"
Old Man Yu shrank his neck, not daring to look at Zhou Chen, and whispered: "I, I transferred the ownership of the house to Xiao Hao."
"you……"
Zhou Chen was really in disbelief. He couldn't believe that Old Man Yu was so stupid.
"That's the house that my mother worked so hard for decades to build. You, you actually transferred it to your stepson? You are really good at it. As a stepfather, you are simply a role model among stepfathers. You can go on TV to commend me.”
Old Man Yu said: "Hongmei and Xiaohao have said that after the house is transferred, Xiaohao will provide me with retirement care. I think it won't be easy for you to work hard in a big city, and I can't hold you back. So, I thought I would let Xiaohao take care of me in my old age so as not to bother you."
"You really know how to speak."
Zhou Chen really laughed. He didn't care about the house or money. He just felt that Old Man Yu was really hopeless.
It's not easy for him, I don't want to hold him back, what a fucking excuse, if he really had this intention, he would still need so much living expenses every month, and would come all the way to ask for money from him for his stepson's gift money. ?
"I've made it clear to you today, I don't have any money now. You can sell the valuable things in your home, but you can't touch this house."
"As for the matter between you and your wife, it has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I don't have the money to marry that woman's son. If you insist on playing rogue with me, I'm not afraid of you. Let's just spend it like this. Look. Who can outlast whom?"
Old Man Yu said angrily: "Yu Huanshui, you are still not a human being. I am your father. Do you even care about your father?"
"I didn't say I don't care about you, I said, I will still pay for living expenses to the best of my ability. If you want to go to a nursing home, I can also give you money to live in a nursing home, but all this has to wait for me to find a job. Let’s talk about it later, now I don’t have a penny and I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you here.”
Zhou Chen ignored Old Yu who was pulling behind him, walked into the bedroom, locked the door directly, and left Old Yu sitting at his door howling and cursing, and just ignored him anyway.
Old Man Yu spent three days with Zhou Chen, but in the end he couldn't beat Zhou Chen because his wife Gao Hongmei called him many times, quarreled with him, and wanted to divorce him. He had no choice but to ask Zhou Chen for a few dollars. One hundred dollars and went home in embarrassment.
As soon as Old Man Yu left, Zhou Chen immediately found someone to go home and clean up. After packing everything, he went to Li Qian's villa and prepared to take Yu Chen home.
When Zhou Chen arrived at Li Qian's house and was about to take Yu Chen away, Zhang Ziming was very reluctant to leave and hugged Yu Chen tightly, not wanting to let Yu Chen leave. Yu Chen was also full of reluctance and did not want to be separated from Zhang Ziming.
The performance of these two children surprised Zhou Chen.
After all, they were two children. He thought that if the two children stayed together for a long time, they would have conflicts and disputes. However, Yu Chen and Zhang Ziming, two little friends, had lived together for almost two weeks and had never had any trouble. Conflict, this is not like the character of a child.
He could only attribute it to Zhang Ziming's docile personality, which made Yu Chen feel like an older brother, and that's why the relationship between the two was so good.
