Everyone Knows I’m a Good Man

460. Middle-aged man addicted to games (8)

No matter how hard Old Lin and the others tried to convince others that Ji Changze was an unfilial son, the residents of Tongzi Building and Zheng Guohua did not believe it.

Unfilial son??

How can it be?

Last time, in front of so many people, these two old men left Ji Changze when he needed help the most, and they said many derogatory words before leaving.

Even though Ji Changze has been making game consoles these days and seems to be making a lot of money, the neighbors in the building have never seen him smile.

Come to think of it, he himself is a person who doesn't like to reveal his inner feelings, otherwise everyone wouldn't know it after being neighbors for so many years. It turns out that two-thirds of Ji Changze's salary over the years has been given to his parents.

Most people today are simple and simple. Even though Ji Changze is making a lot of money that can be seen with the naked eye these days, no one is jealous.

On the contrary? Because his parents treated him with great sympathy.

A neighbor whispered, "I thought it was strange before. Xiaoxue's father's salary is supposed to be three hundred a month. How come the family is living like that? It turns out that all of it is given to his parents."

"After so many years of filial piety, let alone my biological son, I still think about him even if he is not my biological son. Well, it turns out that they are doing well..."

Many people looked at Mr. Lin and the two with subtle feelings of disgust on their faces.

No matter what era, people with bad character are always disgusted.

No matter how they explained, the two people were not believed and immediately fell into despair.

They couldn't figure it out, how could things become like this?

Shouldn't it be that no matter what they do, the eldest son can't resist, otherwise others will say he is unfilial?

Why are they being kicked out now and these people still act like they are at fault?

Ji Changze put down his hand and looked at the embarrassed two people with red eyes:

"Dad, Mom, I don't know why you are doing this to me, but I am really not a waste. I made a game console..."

He paused slightly when he said this, as if otherwise he would cry in front of so many people.

After a few seconds, he said in a hoarse voice:

"The game console I made is not as bad as you said. I will make more games in the future. I will prove to you... I am not a useless person."

After saying that, he seemed to be unable to control his emotions anymore. He covered his eyes with one hand and said vaguely to the neighbors:

"Sorry for disturbing you, I'll go up first?"

Then?, he hurried up the stairs.

Old man and old lady Lin were still in a daze. When they saw him running away, they subconsciously stepped forward to stop him: "Wait, wait, don't leave. Tell us clearly..."

However, before they could take a few steps, they were stopped by the surrounding neighbors.

Ji Changze's gaffe made them even more sympathetic, and they lost patience with these indifferent parents:

"If you do this again, we will call the police."

"How can you be such a father and mother? Really, I praised you before for still taking care of your son at such an old age. Is that really blinding me?"

"You guys go away quickly. Xiaoxue's dad has a good temper, but I don't have a bad temper. If you keep pestering me like this again? Xiaoxue's dad won't let go. Be careful, I won't be polite!"

Over the past few days, all the neighbors have witnessed how Ji Changze was devastated and how he was able to cheer up and speak out.

They have all lived together for so many years, and it is not popular now to clean up one's own affairs. When one person opens his mouth, the rest of the people will follow.

Zheng Guohua was worried about Ji Changze and wanted to follow him, but Wang Jijun stopped him.

"You have a strong physique. Please stop these two below while Lao Qi and I go up and take a look."

Are they on guard? These two are going up again to cause damage.

Originally Ji Changze was depressed these days, so they took good care of him every day and took good care of him.

I finally got better, but this happened today?

Zheng Guohua also knew that he was not good at persuading people, so he nodded: "Okay, you guys go up? Don't worry, I am here, can they go up?"

He was determined to nip the possibility of these incompetent parents influencing Ji Changze in the cradle.

If it doesn't work, the worst he can do is quit his job and stay by Ji Changze's side 24 hours a day.

It certainly takes a lot of courage to make this decision, but Zheng Guohua, who has witnessed how popular and profitable game consoles are, knows exactly what is most important.

As long as Nagasawa is protected, the status of a lumber factory worker is nothing.

He stayed downstairs for an hour. During that time, Mr. Lin and the two couldn't get up no matter how hard they tried.

“Our luggage is still up there!!!”

Zheng Guohua turned a deaf ear: "Since you have made up your mind to go out without luggage in order to frame Nagasawa, then it is your own business."

The two of them were already going crazy.

"Who framed him!!!"

"We didn't! No!!!"

Zheng Guohua returns

Two words: "Haha."

In the end, the parents gritted their teeth and left under the indifferent and disdainful eyes of Zheng Guohua and the people around them.

They had no choice but to leave. The weather was so cold, and they were tricked out of the house in the cold. They didn't wear thick coats at all.

Being able to hold on for an hour is already considered a great achievement.

Zheng Guohua was still a little worried, fearing that the two men would try to counterattack, so he waited downstairs for more than ten minutes. When he saw no movement, he went upstairs with peace of mind.

Upstairs, because Wang Jijun and the others were all there, the neighbors did not come to persuade him. Only the left and right neighbors who had seen enough of the excitement looked curiously at the open door of Ji's house several times when they came back.

When Zheng Guohua entered, he saw two companions sitting at the table in the main room, with worried looks on their faces.

His heart skipped a beat.

"How's it going? Is Nagasawa feeling better?"

Qi Guoli smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Wang Jijun sighed: "He locked himself in the room? He said he wanted to be alone for a while."

Although he had guessed that this would happen before, when Ji Changze really became autistic again, Zheng Guohua couldn't help but follow him and let out a long sigh.

"What a sin."

How could Nagasawa, a serious, smart and hard-working person, end up with such a pair of parents?

Ji Changze is indeed autistic.

The kind of autism that closes one's eyes.

He must shut himself up.

Old man Lin's eldest son is a filial son. This has been a fact for more than thirty years.

At the age of thirty-five, he still handed over two-thirds of his salary to his family members, and now he is being hurt "serially" by his parents. How can he think about it?

When Zhou Xiaocao came back the next day, she found out that her parents-in-law had made such a fuss while she was away.

She simply couldn't care less about her parents-in-law's misfortune, so she fell into worry about her husband.

As his wife, Zhou Xiaocao knows better than anyone else how much her husband loves his parents.

She thanked Zheng Guohua and others who had been worried about taking care of her husband, opened the door and walked in, sitting silently next to Ji Changze who was leaning on the bedside reading a book.

"Nagasawa……"

She held her husband's hand and tried to comfort him: "Don't think too much, you still have Xiaoxue."

Zhou Xiaocao didn't talk about herself. When her husband had just lost a family relationship, telling him that he still had family members was the best way to comfort him.

Ji Changze put down his book and his expression moved, as if he had been reminded.

"right……"

He held his wife's hand instead, with a sense of loss and hesitation in his tone, and every word

Revealing the meaning of self-comfort:

"I still have you."

Ji Changze hugged the person in front of him and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaocao, I only have you."

Zhou Xiaocao also stretched out her arms to hug him. At this moment, she realized that this man who had always been strong in her eyes was so fragile.

After all these years, it is impossible to say that there has been no resentment in my heart.

It is normal to be filial to your parents, but your husband's various behaviors have gone beyond the word filial piety.

In order to support her parents-in-law, no matter how hard they tried, their little family has always been in embarrassing poverty over the years.

It would be fine if they didn't have the ability to change all this, but Ji Changze's salary of 300 per month was enough for them to live well.

Sometimes, Zhou Xiaocao would not give in.

Her cowardice is not because of her own unwillingness, but because of her daughter.

All along, Zhou Xiaocao never felt that her status as a wife allowed her to share everything about her husband as a matter of course.

But my daughter is different.

Is that Nagasawa's biological child? Ah.

So even if she doesn't give in, it's not for herself.

And now, holding this man who was not very strong, he took out a wad of money from his pocket.

He stuffed it firmly into her hand.

This was the first time Zhou Xiaocao had seen so much money.

Over the years, the savings of this small family have never exceeded fifty.

Because even if the salary is handed over, the parents will still come over from time to time to enjoy the autumn breeze.

Newly purchased items, even oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, cannot escape their search.

And now, she has so much money in her hands.

This money is enough to support my daughter through school.

Ji Changze's deep voice sounded in my ears:

"Following me all these years has made you and Xiaoxue suffer. I also know that I can't be cruel. From now on, you will keep all the money I make."

This is to prevent him from being soft-hearted and giving money to his parents again.

Zhou Xiaocao held the money and her eyes turned red after listening to her husband's words.

She never denied that her husband was a good man, but he was too filial, and the person he was filial to was too hateful.

After more than ten years, she finally survived.

Something called confidence gradually arose in Zhou Xiaocao's heart. She cherished a handkerchief and folded the money carefully on it.

"Okay, I'll keep it?"

The lingering anguish in the eyes of the mistress of the house slowly faded away, and her smile became more relaxed.

Mumbling and calculating in a low voice?:

"You are tired these days. Guohua and the others have helped a lot just now. I'm going to buy some meat and wine. I'll call them all here tonight and you can have a good drink."

"Xiaoxue's schoolbag is also old. I should have given her a new one a long time ago. I will go there tomorrow and buy her one, as well as clothes. Her clothes have turned white after washing."

"And your shoes, it's time to change them too."

Zhou Xiaocao is constantly planning for her home. Just listening to what she said makes you know how busy she will be in the next few days.

Ji Changze didn't go? He tried to get her to change a less busy lifestyle.

He could see that she urgently needed to take the initiative to change everything she wanted to change, so that she could slowly experience the sense of security that a hostess felt.

After all, for more than ten years, Zhou Xiaocao has been under the shadow of her mother-in-law when it comes to family purchases, and has never been able to take the initiative to add or throw away things.

Ji Changze only held her hand and said slowly when she had finished calculating everything she wanted to do and a satisfied smile appeared on her face:

"And you, it's time to buy some beautiful clothes."

Zhou Xiaocao was stunned for a moment, then hesitated: "Me? I'm so old, why should I dress up?"

"You are only in your thirties, how old are you?"

Ji Changze said in a serious tone: "Game consoles are very profitable. You don't have to worry about running out of money at home in the future. Not only can you buy some clothes, but also buy some of those creams used by women."

His expression was not very affectionate. After all, they were an old married couple, and they both had the same temperament to live a happy life. There had never been any talk of love, and it was just a steady stream of things.

"I was confused before and wronged you for my parents, but I won't do it anymore."

Zhou Xiaocao looked at her husband in a daze.

The already red eyes became even redder.

The grievances that have been lingering in my heart all these years seem to be gone.

She smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll buy two clothes too."

Money is a man's courage.

Holding the money in a handkerchief in her hand and looking at the man in front of her who was smiling at her, she felt at ease as she had never felt before.

At this moment, she finally felt that she was the mistress of this family.

This is her, Nagasawa, Xiaoxue's home.

****

Zhou Xiaocao went out to purchase. Ji Changze was sorting out the drawings he had drawn before and slowly thinking about this person.

Lin Chang

Far.

There is something fishy about this person.

In the memory of the original owner, his brother was like the moon in the sky, high and distant.

Lin Yuanyuan has shown intelligence and wit since he was a child.

When he was three years old, he was already able to communicate with adults freely, and when he was five years old, he taught himself how to read.

The only primary school teacher in the village at that time was so amazed that he devoted all his knowledge to teach him.

In the end, Lin Yuanyuan only attended elementary school for one year and then skipped to junior high school.

If this is the case, it can only prove that Lin Yuanyuan is smarter, but in junior high school, Lin Yuanyuan seems to have gradually become mediocre. Although his grades are good, they are not to the point where people can exclaim as a genius.

It was even worse in high school.

From a good student with excellent grades, he was directly reduced to the middle and lower level.

But he was good at saying that he never mentioned the drop in his grades when he returned home, and he still coaxed Old Man and Old Lady Lin to treat him as a darling.

It wasn't until the college entrance examination that he was admitted to a very good university with excellent results. School teachers and classmates were surprised why there was such a big gap in his grades. Only then did Lin Yuan Yuan's poor grades in high school come to light.

But for the winner, a bad past is nothing.

Lin Changyuan became the most prosperous junior in the village. After graduating from college, he returned to Changliu County to teach.

Because it was a very prestigious university, Changhe High School accepted him without any hesitation.

After successfully joining the company, he married the vice-principal's daughter, gave birth to a fat boy, and became a happy and successful man in every aspect in the eyes of others.

The original owner didn't have much contact with this younger brother.

Since he was a child, his parents have compared him with his younger brother. How good the other brother is only makes him look useless and incompetent.

Even though he had already started to make money to supplement the family income while his younger brother was studying, to his parents, this was just one of the things that made him inferior to his younger brother.

The lives of the two people are like one sky and one earth, clearly separated.

Lin Yuanyuan seemed to understand this truth. His eyes when looking at this brother were always full of indifference and contempt, and he even refused to attend his wedding.

In short, the relationship between these brothers is very bad.

No matter how Ji Changze looked at it, he felt that Lin Changyuan had a big problem.

Especially when he was in high school, he strongly urged his parents to spend money to buy a house in the city, but at that time, even though Old Man Lin and the others were partial to this,

The younger son is unwilling to gamble with his life savings.

After that, the price of the house slowly increased, and they could no longer afford it.

With this lesson learned, when the eldest son came back after making some money and wanted to build a house in the village, and the younger son proposed to use the money to buy him a house in the county, the two of them did not hesitate at all. So I agreed.

When the original owner felt wronged, they would criticize him in a tone that said he was ignorant:

"Do you know how much this house has gone up to now? If we hadn't used that money to buy the house, would it be so profitable now? Do you want to build a house in the village? The house in the village is worth it. How much?"

However, they also don’t think about it, the price of this house has indeed increased.

But it is not recorded in the name of the original owner? If the price increases or not, what does it have to do with him?

All in all, in the eyes of Ji Changze, a veteran, Lin Changyuan's various behaviors were full of mistakes.

Reborn.

Ji Youtiao, who was not meeting a resurrected person for the first time, put down the drawing in his hand.

It seems that he has to ensure the IQ of this resurrected person.

Although the other party could barely maintain good grades when he entered junior high school, and from the point of view of becoming a poor student in high school, it seemed that there was no need to test.

Ji Changze went to the hut where the game consoles were kept, found a few students wearing the uniforms of Zhao Plan's school, and asked them to go and send a message to Zhao Plan.

After school, Zhao Jihua came running over as expected.

"Brother Ze, you are looking for me."

"Yes, come to my house in the evening, your sister-in-law will cook, and we will have a good meal. Remember to tell your parents that you will come back later."

When Zhao Jihua heard this, he was so happy that he couldn't see his eyes and said, "Okay!"

Can he be unhappy?

Brother Ze invited them to dinner, doesn't that mean he has recovered a little?

Ji Changze then said: "I remember you know the students from Changhe High School?"

Zhao Jiji nodded: "Yes, I am in Changhe High School? I have several good brothers."

Basically, they all go to the same junior high school. Even if they go to different high schools, they still have a good relationship.

"I want to change the game console. From now on, the ranking will be calculated every month. The top player will be rewarded with a hundred yuan."

As soon as Ji Changze finished speaking, Zhao Jihua's eyes widened: "One hundred yuan?!"

"right."

Ji Changze pretended that he didn't see the "Brother Ze, you're crazy" expression on Zhao Jihua's face, and slowly continued:

"Now our game consoles are famous throughout the county. There are so many songs and dances, and players get bored easily. We have come up with some incentives to make them enthusiastic."

In fact, the most profitable and attractive thing in this era is gambling on game consoles.

But Ji Changze was not willing to take the gamble.

If you have just entered the new world, forget about pretending to fit into the role and open a gambling outlet by yourself. Or should you do it when most of your customers are students? How could he possibly go? Do.

Zhao Jihua has always been smart, and he understood it as soon as Ji Changze started talking.

"Brother Ze, I understand. I will promote it well."

Ji Changze nodded: "Also, remember to make it clear when promoting, class time? We don't accept students here."

Zhao Jihua was a little confused: "Why? Many students were outside during class."

Nowadays, everyone knows that going to college is a good thing, but the reaction to dropping out of school and not studying hard is not as big as that of later generations.

Not doing well in school? Not willing to study? Then go? You can get a part-time job.

Although it's harder and you can't work in an office, you can still make money.

Ji Changze lowered his eyes slightly: "Students should still study hard. If my daughter runs out to play during class, I will feel bad."

"I only have one daughter, so we need to consider our parents."

Did Zhao Jihua see him? The love that flashed across Brother Ze's face inadvertently when he said this was a bit envious.

It's not that I envy Ji Changze for loving his daughter. After all, he has a very good relationship with his parents.

He was envious of Brother Ze talking about his daughter so tenderly.

Look at his parents, they are very open-minded, but when it comes to him, he is still a little brat?

"Okay, Brother Naze, I will write a new rule and put it on the wall in a minute."

Want to do something? Little expert Zhao Jihua just did it. After a while, there was a brand new rule on the wall.

The next day, the rule came into effect.

Some students who specifically skipped class to play game consoles were turned away. They were unconvinced and unhappy. They wanted to have the guts to say that if there is no room for students here, they will have their own place, and they will never come again next time.

But looking at the young people inside who were waiting in line to play, they still kept their mouths shut.

There is nothing more fun than this arcade in the county.

If you say this now and you can't help but play with it after a while, it will be a slap in the face.

"Okay, I'll come back after school."

In the end, they had no choice but to leave unwillingly.

As he walked, he muttered: "I've never seen anything like this. I don't even do business."

Zheng Guohua, who was still immersed in the delicious food last night, watched the students walk away with regret.

This is all money.

"Nagaze, is this really okay? We won't make less money, right?"

Ji Changze lowered his head and fiddled with the parts in his hand, but did not raise his head when he heard these words: "We are not short of these few dollars. Without these students, the game console will still be idle for a day."

When Zheng Guohua thought about it, it was the same.

He took a careful look at Ji Changze and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the other person looked calm and seemed not to be so sad anymore.

"What do we do next?"

"Next step?"

Ji Changze looked at the young people lining up over there waiting to play: "Wait."

Waiting for this game console to come out of this county.

All the way across the country.

Changhe High School?.

The class bell rang, and the teacher announced that class was over and walked out of the classroom. The students who had listened to the class honestly suddenly became lively.

One talked about the latest popular novels, the other talked about songs, and the one who had a TV at home was discussing what was played on the TV last night.

And in the corner of the classroom, there is a small group that is taking the time to review what the teacher just said without relaxing.

One of the students was a little tired. He looked up and saw that his friends were all studying frantically. He wanted to rest but felt it was too much.

After thinking for a while, he poked the seatmate next to him.

"I'm tired, are you tired?"

The deskmate put down his pen temporarily and said, "I'm tired. I really want to rest."

When other people saw them chatting, they also raised their heads, rubbing their hands that were a little sore from copying notes, and complaining.

"It's too difficult."

"I am pretty tired."

"I didn't expect that learning is not an easy task?"

"Nonsense, if it was easier you would have sat in the front."

They complained for a while, and the student who spoke first suggested: "How about we take a break?"

Several other people nodded: "Okay, I want to lie down for a while."

"Me too, I want to read some short stories."

"Then let me play five-piece chess for a while."

Seeing that everyone was planning to take a rest, this student felt relieved and did not feel that he was at a loss in his heart.

"Then I'll go to the canteen and buy some popping candy."

"go Go."

"I'll take a nap."

The student stood up and left the classroom with confidence. When he reached the stairs, he suddenly remembered something and touched his pocket.

Sure enough, I forgot to bring that dime.

Oh, forget that he went to play Snowflake to save money, and then he cruelly put all the money under the bed, just to stop himself from buying delicious food at school.

Thinking of this, the student licked his mouth greedily.

The conditions at his home can only be described as average, but the dancing game machine is so fun, so he can only save money in this way.

It would be great if I could get into the top ten.

If you get into the top ten, you will get ten game coins, which is enough to play ten games.

As he thought this, he began to feel nervous about the idea that he didn't want to study and wanted to go downstairs to relax.

How can you carry it!

If you don't work hard now, how can you have money to play games.

Think ten game coins!

He gritted his teeth, his expression became determined, and returned to the original route.

As he was walking, he was thinking a little uneasily. He said he was going to buy snacks, but he came back to study. The other people must have said that he was not interesting enough.

But you can't blame him. Who made the temptation of game currency too great?

Thinking like this?, this student who wanted to be lazy but was pulled back to the front line of study by reason pushed the door open.

After opening the back door and seeing the scene in front of him, the determined look on his face froze.

The group of friends in the back seat who had just promised him that they wanted to play backgammon when they wanted to sleep were all immersed in reviewing.

Each one looked more serious than the other.

The eyes are more serious than the other.

"Depend on!"

He cursed, never expecting that this group of people would actually play tricks on him when we were friends.

"You guys are really..."

I opened my mouth to curse, but felt that cursing would waste too much time.

With this skill, he might as well study hard.

So, half a minute later, there was another person in the small group who was immersed in studying.

The teacher who passed by this classroom after going to the bathroom upstairs saw their appearance and nodded with satisfaction.

"Old Zhang, what are you looking at?"

The teacher who had the next class here came over with a book in hand, followed the eyes of his colleagues and saw the scene inside, and smiled.

"They have been like this for several days. When they were listening to my class, I was so serious that I wanted to move them to the front."

The teacher also laughed: "It's the same in my class. These children are actually quite smart, but they didn't focus on studying before. Now they are so serious. Even if they can't get into the top ten, they should make progress." It’s pretty big too.”

After finishing speaking, he subconsciously scanned the circle of teachers.

In the room, I saw students sitting in the front row writing furiously, and I was slightly confused.

"Why is Linhe working so hard?"

The teacher who was teaching the next class took a look and knew what was going on: "Why else? It's not just for the game currency. Ever since the Snowflake Game Machine came out, all the students in the school have become honest. Quite a few.”

"I'm holding it all in. I want to get into the top ten in the class."

The teacher who asked the question became even more confused: "Don't Linhe usually play games? This game console is so fun, even he fell into it?"

"No, even if he wants to play, he doesn't have time to play. I was worried that he would be addicted to games and delay his studies, so I asked him. Does this kid want to earn those game coins and then sell them to supplement the money? Home use.”

The teacher's tone was full of pity: "It's not easy for him. What's the situation at home? There are three younger brothers and sisters. Last time, it seemed that the younger brother was sick and needed medical treatment, but the family had no money. He really had no choice, so he took this How about the semester’s award? Xuehua asked if he could redeem it, but the boss actually redeemed it for him.”

"Later, he took the game currency and exchanged it for three yuan, and then he took his brother to see a doctor."

Hearing this, the previous teacher also sighed.

What they feel most distressed about is Linhe in the class. He has good grades and works hard, but his family is too poor.

As a teacher, I want to help, but I am powerless.

It's not easy for anyone these days.

"From this point of view, it is indeed a good thing for the Snowflake Game Console to come out like this."

Poor students work hard to be able to play games.

Good students from poor families can also use their certificates to exchange for game currency to supplement their family income.

"I've never felt like I do now that it would be great to have such a game console in the county."

Hearing his colleague say this, the teacher laughed.

"Who isn't?"

I used to think that game consoles made these students lose interest in playing with things. This is the first time that I see game consoles promoting students to study hard.

"Let's go together some other time? Let's take a look? I heard it's really fun."

"Why, are you going to fall too?"

"Hahahaha, why do you think it's so ugly to say that it's fall?"

"I heard that the teacher from the high school next door just wanted to give it a try. It turned out to be so fun that I had to play there after school to feel comfortable."

"That's good. My arms and legs are old, so moving is considered exercise."

The two of them looked at each other and smiled as they spoke, but they did not expect that as teachers, they would ever take the initiative to go to the game arcade one day in their lives.

To blame, it’s because this game is so fun.
