Chapter 2976 Meeting
"Hey, what's the point of being awesome in the past?
20 years have passed, and so many generations of the richest people have been imprisoned or bankrupt.
If our cheap dad returns to modern society, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to even integrate into it. After all, the development has been too fast in the past 20 years.
Daxia took only 20 years to complete the journey that took other countries hundreds of years."
Chen Pingan sighed and said, "What I fear most now is that he can't keep up with the pace of society, and the mental pressure is too great, and he becomes distorted and depressed.
As his children, we should not expect him to be as awesome as before.
It's good enough if you don't cause us any trouble."
"The authorities said they would provide employment guidance and other assistance.
"But in the early stages, we'll have to take care of his food, clothing, and daily needs, as well as help him find a suitable job," Chen Ziyi said.
"Well, no matter what he does, let him find a job first, talk to more people, get in touch with them, and he'll slowly get used to it.
At least I won’t be like a prisoner who just got out of prison after 20 years.”
Chen Xile said.
If Chen Mo were present, he would definitely look relieved.
Although Gong Ziyuan did not spend much energy on her children, she taught them a lot through words and deeds, making the Chen brothers and sisters very filial and responsible. They did not ignore them just because they had a cheap father out of nowhere.
Especially the financial situation of the Chen brothers and sisters is very bad.
Having one more mouth to feed is a huge pressure for five people!
"First, bring the people back, and then see what else happens.
Let’s not talk about Mom for now. Let’s wait for Dad to live here for a few days and adapt to modern society, then we’ll take him to see Mom.”
Chen Pingan made the final decision.
"Then where does our dad live?" Chen Zhenzhen asked the key question.
"Xi Le, give up your room to Dad first.
You sleep on the sofa first."
Chen Pingan said: "After a few days when things are stable, we can pool our money and rent him a house so that he can live with his mother."
Having said this, Chen Pingan showed a hint of helplessness.
Gong Ziyuan sleeps on the floor in the company all year round.
No matter how her brothers and sisters tried to persuade her, she just couldn't get it over with.
This time Chen Mo is back, maybe it's an opportunity to persuade his mother to have a good rest and live a normal life.
“If only I had money…”
Chen Pingan sighed again.
The house is now rented.
Housing prices in the capital continue to rise, and buying a house seems to be a distant dream.
There are actually many inconveniences when a family lives together.
Especially Chen Pingan, he can't find time to be intimate with his wife.
There's no way. The house is too small and the whole family can hear any noise clearly.
But things are better now. The eldest sister Chen Zhenzhen is about to be promoted to a regular employee, and the third sister Chen Ziyi is about to graduate.
Once they both get their jobs, even if they don't move out, they can at least move into a slightly bigger house so that everyone won't be so crowded and can have a little more privacy.
As for Chen Xile... we have to find a way to help him separate from this family.
The girl has always disliked the Chen family for being poor and doesn't want to have any contact with them. It would be nice for him to move out and live a good life on his own, as there is no future for him to stay in this family.
"This is a good idea."
Chen Zhenzhen agreed readily.
"Yeah, I also want our mom to stop living in the company."
Everyone looked at each other and collectively approved this plan.
Even if it was just for their mother, they were willing to pay for Chen Mo to rent a house.
"I work long hours, and I'm the one who pays the most for my dad's resettlement.
In this way, I will take out 3 yuan, big sister, you take out 1 yuan, and Lezi takes out 5000 yuan. Ziyi is still in school, so don't let her take the money.
Apart from renting the house, the rest of the money will be used as his living expenses," said Chen Pingan.
"Second brother!"
Just as Chen Ziyi was about to say something, she was stopped by Chen Ping'an's stern look.
"Brother, your family is in such a difficult situation, I can't let you pay for everything.
Let’s split the cost among the three of us.”
Chen Xile glanced at his sister-in-law Liu Yan, who had a complicated expression, and immediately spoke.
Chen Zhenzhen nodded: "Yes, it's fairer to share the burden equally. For so many years, you have been responsible for everything. As the eldest sister, I feel so guilty.
When I get a permanent job, I will take Ziyi and Xile to live out.
It’s time for you two to live your own happy life.”
Liu Yan immediately said, "Sister, what are you talking about? We are all family, it's only natural that we help each other!"
But in fact, deep down, Liu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
A poor couple has many worries!
Only Liu Yan knew how much pressure her husband was under.
At a young age, Chen Pingan dropped out of school to work to support his family.
Until now, he not only has to pamper his family, but also has the pressure of work. Now he has to deal with Chen Mo's affairs. He is really under a lot of pressure!
If at this time, the Chen family still asked him to spend tens of thousands of yuan to support Chen Mo, Liu Yan felt that she had to have a good talk with the Chen family about some things.
Firstly, Chen Pingan is not the eldest brother, and secondly, he has been supporting their family for so many years.
You can't just point at a sheep and pluck its wool!
Fortunately, the Chen family members are very sensible.
"Hubby, our dad's coming back this time will definitely cost a lot of money.
I don’t know whether the country has given any compensation this time.
I saw on the news that foreign passengers, especially those from foreign countries, receive a minimum living allowance of 2000 foreign currency per month!
Liu Yan asked tentatively, with a little bit of anticipation in her heart.
It would be great if Chen Mo came back and the country also provided compensation!
Even if it's not much, giving a few thousand dollars a month can at least improve the situation at home!
"Liu Yan!"
Chen Pingan's expression suddenly became stern, and he scolded: "He came back at a time when he was most in need of money!
Even if there is compensation, it is his and our mother's money!"
"How can we, as his children, think of taking his money?"
"Why are you so excited? I'm just worried that you're too tired and stressed!"
Liu Yan said aggrievedly, "Besides, he's your father. When he's not around, I don't say anything about you taking care of this big family. But now that he's back, do you still need to take care of it? That's unreasonable, isn't it?"
Chen Pingan sighed deeply: "Wife, I know I have wronged you over the years.
Now that my cheap dad has suddenly returned, you must be the one who suffers the most.
I promise to help him adapt as quickly as possible, and then let him live with his mother without disturbing us too much."
Chen Pingan really feels sorry for Liu Yan.
For so many years, he played the role of father in this family, and Liu Yan played the role of mother.
She had no obligation to take care of this large family, nor did she have any obligation to suffer with him.
But she persisted, and over the years she only complained occasionally, but never gave up.
"I watched the news, and my dad is still the same as he was 20 years ago, nothing has changed.
In other words, he is only 30 years old and in good health."
“If nothing else, it should be easy for the government to help him find a job as a security guard or courier.
Self-sufficiency should not be a problem.”
Liu Yan said.
As they were discussing this, the taxi was approaching the hotel.
Everyone became inexplicably nervous.
I'm about to meet this cheap old man I haven't seen for 20 years. I don't know if it will be awkward...
