Chapter 870: Honest Child

After arriving home, Xu Dong said hello to Lao Fang, and then sent Tan Miaomiao, Captain Zhou and others away, giving them a week-long vacation.

After all, this business trip took too long.

Just as he was about to enter the door, he suddenly heard a low "whimpering" sound. He looked up and finally found Xiao Huzi in the corner.

Xu Dong immediately walked over and asked with concern:

"Xiao Huzi, what's wrong? Did your mother beat you again because you failed the exam?"

"No." Xiao Huzi wiped his tears, "Second Grandpa, you are back, did you bring me a gift?"

"I'll give it to you later." Xu Dong touched the other person's head: "Tell the second grandpa, who bullied you? The second grandpa will help you get revenge."

Since it's not the eldest niece, she must have had a conflict with the guys. There are many children in the family, and fighting scenes are played out almost every day. The family is used to it.

"Second Grandpa, it was my aunt who bullied me."

The more Xiao Hu thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt, and tears flowed down his face.

"Really? How did she bully you?"

Xu Dong squatted down and asked.

"Auntie is so mean. I found a hundred yuan at the door this morning. I was very careful, but she still found it."

"Did she steal your money?"

Xiao Huzi shook his head: "Auntie didn't steal my hundred yuan, but said that I had to treat her at noon because I saw it."

"Did you agree?"

"I agreed. It was money I found, so I didn't feel bad about spending it. Before we left, my auntie reminded me to bring my wallet, and then we went to Xiaowantang. As a result, eight people ate more than ten thousand yuan in total, and I couldn't afford the bill."

Xu Dong suppressed his smile: "Didn't you look at the menu before ordering?"

"Auntie ordered directly, without even opening the menu." Xiao Huzi choked up.

"What happened next? Who paid?"

"My aunt emptied my wallet and announced that it was her treat today."

Xu Dong probably knew what was going on. It must be Lele who was bullying Xiao Huzi again, so he quickly comforted him:

"Okay, don't cry. You can earn money again if you lose it. I'll tell your aunt later and ask her to help you find a summer job. You can earn it back soon."

"Wow..."

Xiao Huzi cried even more sadly when he heard this.

"What's wrong?" Xu Dong asked in confusion.

"Second Grandpa, the matter is not over yet! After dinner, I didn't get angry at first. After all, this was the first time I treated everyone to a meal. Although it cost a lot of money, I was still very proud."

"You're right to think so." Xu Dong was very relieved.

"Second Grandpa, I haven't finished talking yet! Just now, Grandpa Fang secretly told me that the 100 yuan was deliberately left at the door by my aunt in the morning, with the purpose of luring me into the trap. I was too stupid."

When Xiao Huzi thought that all his pocket money was gone, he was angry and wronged.

He also confronted his aunt face to face, but his aunt only admitted that she lost the money, and bit back, asking him to return the money quickly, otherwise he would be a thief.

The aunt was too good at talking, and she made him speechless.

In the end, he could only blush and flee, hiding in a corner alone and feeling sad.

Xu Dong looked at Xiao Huzi with sympathy. Lele did go too far this time. After all, the old Pan family is a military family, and Xu Jingyi, the tiger mother, is very strict with the three little lion brothers.

This pocket money was probably saved by Xiao Huzi for a long time, but it was just wasted by Lele. No wonder Xiao Huzi cried so sadly.

Xu Dong pulled the young man up from the steps: "We are all grown-ups now, stop crying. How much did you spend on this dinner? Second Grandpa will give you the money."

"Really?"

Little Tiger was overjoyed.

At home, apart from his great-grandfather and great-grandmother, Second Grandpa is the one who makes the most decisions, and Grandpa told him that Second Grandpa is the richest man in the world.

"When has Second Grandpa ever lied to you?" Xu Dong took out a stack of money from his wallet, counted it and asked:

"Is one thousand yuan enough?"

This money is what he spent in Europe.

In order to show its sincerity, the European Union does not plan to issue its own currency, but to fully adopt the Great Xia Coin as the official currency.

But then again, with the current situation in Europe, even if they want to issue currency, they are probably powerless. It is better to use this as a condition to exchange for more benefits!

"It's too much, Second Grandpa, just give me 525 yuan." Little Tiger said excitedly.

Looking at the sincere eyes of Little Tiger, Xu Dong didn't know what to say for a moment. This kid should be the most honest child in the family.

He counted six bills and handed them over.

Little Tiger took the money, counted it carefully three times, and then said excitedly: "Second Grandpa, wait for me, I'll go to Grandpa Fang to change the change."

"No need." Xu Dong waved his hand, "The extra money is a reward from Second Grandpa."

"What reward do I have?" Little Tiger looked curious.

"Reward you for treating everyone to soup. You should be more generous. Don't learn from your grandpa. You are always stingy in everything you do, for fear of being taken advantage of."

Xu Dong replied with a smile.

"I know, thank you, Second Grandpa."

Little Tiger nodded solemnly.

Xu Dong put away his wallet: "Hurry up and hide the money, don't let anyone else find it."

When the little tiger heard this, he immediately ran to the bedroom.

Xu Dong followed into the living room and met his little daughter who was rushing over.

He immediately took his granddaughter from Lele.

Lele rushed to show off: "Dad, Lentil can already talk."

"Really? Lentil, call grandpa quickly."

"Frog..."

Although I haven’t seen him for more than three months, Lentil doesn’t recognize him at all.

"It's grandpa." Xu Dong tried to correct him.

"Frog...Frog..."

"Frog, let's be frog!" Xu Dong kissed his granddaughter's tender little face hard: "Our lentils are really good."

Lele asked casually: "Dad, what did you just say to Xiao Huzi? I think he was almost crazy with joy?"

"Look at the good thing you did. How did Xiao Huzi offend you? How could you have the nerve to lie to him?"

Xu Dong said angrily.

"Hehe, he told you? In fact, I don't call it cheating, it should be called exercise. The little tiger is too honest, and honest people tend to suffer losses after they go out into society."

Lele argued forcefully.

"Okay, I can't help you. Xiao Huzi will naturally have your cousin and cousin-in-law to worry about. You don't need to pretend to be kind. Don't bully him again in the future."

"Why are you pretending to be kind? I mean it sincerely."

Xu Dong shook his head and took the opportunity to educate: "You must change your habit of bullying. Children can easily hold grudges."

"Hmph, I am their elder, how dare they hold grudges? Besides, I usually cook so many delicious foods for them, they should be grateful."

Lele said proudly.

Xu Dong shook his head helplessly, and then went straight to the study with Lentil in his arms.

As for the father, mother, mother-in-law and wife, the four of them have already set off for Qiongdao. In the near future, their youngest daughter-in-law Duan Xinyue will be born.
