Wang Gang held his wife's hand, followed by his two sons, and walked slowly on the narrow street.
"Dad, where is this? Why is it so shabby? So dirty?" Zhou Ming wrinkled his little nose, a little disgusted with the environment of light text.
Zhou Cong lightly hit his younger brother's arm with his hand and whispered: "Obviously, don't talk nonsense, this is where our dad grew up."
Zhou Ming shrank his neck, stuck out his tongue and said, "The place where dad used to live was so bad."
Zheng Juan turned back and said to her youngest son with a smile: "The place where your mother and I used to live was even worse than this."
Zhou Cong said in surprise: "Mom, are you going to take us back to have a look?"
Zheng Juan said: "Your dad said he would bring you here to have a look. He knows how difficult our family's life was in the past and how hard-earned it is to have the life we have now."
Wang Gang said with a straight face: "You two have lived in the capital since childhood, have never suffered hardship, and have no affection for Jichun's hometown. But I want to tell you, without Jichun, our family would not be what it is today. The most important thing in life is not to forget our roots."
While talking, the four of them came to the Zhou family's old house.
No one has lived in it for more than ten years. Although it was renovated once in the process, the house built by Zhou Zhigang himself is now so dilapidated that some people believe it when they say it is a dilapidated house.
Wang Gang opened the door carefully and was filled with emotion when he saw the place where he once lived.
"Juan'er, do you remember? When we first got married, our whole family lived here. Although we didn't have much money, we were very happy." Wang Gang said, holding his wife's hand.
Zheng Juan rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "You were not without money at that time. Our family had the best life in Guangzhou. We ate meat every three days."
Wang Gang laughed and said, "I told you when we got married that if you marry me, I will never let you endure hardships for the rest of your life."
Zheng Juan hugged her husband's arms happily, feeling sweet in her heart.
Marrying Wang Gang was the best decision she made in her life.
"Mom and Dad, I know you have a good relationship, can you please stop showing it off in front of your son?" Zhou Ming, who was standing aside, said speechlessly.
"You brat, are you happy because your parents are arguing all day long?" Wang Gang scolded with a smile.
Zhou Cong smiled and said: "Mom and Dad, you are the most loving couple I have ever seen. For more than ten years, I have never seen you even quarrel, let alone quarrel."
Zheng Juan said to her son: "Congcong, you will also meet the girl you like in the future. You must learn from your father and always put your family first, so that you can be loving as a husband and wife."
Zhou Cong nodded clearly, but Zhou Ming didn't quite understand it because he was still young.
"Okay, let's go to the place where your mother used to live."
Wang Gang took his wife and children to Taiping Hutong again. When they passed by the old Zhangtou house they bought before, they found that the house had collapsed and was in a mess.
Lao Zhangtou's house was an adobe house. Wang Gang later lent it to Xiao Guoqing and his wife. After they moved out, no one took care of the house, so it would naturally collapse.
Although the old house of the Zheng family did not collapse, it was not much different. Wang Gang did not dare to bring his wife and children in.
"Bingkun, have you noticed that there are very few people living in Guangzipian and Taiping Hutong?"
Zheng Juan walked around and found that the old neighbors she used to live in were almost gone, leaving only empty houses.
The optical film is better, and there are still some elderly people living there. Taiping Hutong is simply an empty alley with not a single soul in sight.
Wang Gang explained: "The economy in Jichun is in recession, and Guangzipi is the poorest place, so many young people go to other places to work.
Some people have established a foothold in other places, so they take their parents to live there and sell their old houses."
Zheng Juan was even more surprised.
"You haven't returned to Jichun in the past few years, how come you know so well?"
Wang Gang said: "Since five years ago, I have asked someone to buy the house near the phototype film. As long as someone sells it, I will buy it."
Zheng Juan is also a person who has seen the world and guessed the purpose of her husband's behavior right away.
"Do you want to transform the phototype?"
"Yes, this is also the wish of my parents. After all, the optical film is the root of our old Zhou family." Wang Gang sighed.
Zheng Juan nodded and said: "How many houses have you collected now?"
Wang Gang looked around and saw that there was no one around, and whispered: "The houses in Taiping Hutong have been almost completely taken away, and half of the photograms have been taken away. Only some old people are left who refuse to move."
"It's easy to understand. If my parents were asked to sell their old house, they would definitely not be willing to sell it." Zheng Juan sighed.
"I'm not in a hurry anyway, just take your time! I've consulted with experts and found that now is not the best time to modify the optical lettering film." Wang Gang said nonchalantly.
Renovation of old urban areas has always been a thankless job. If Wang Gang hadn't had some affection for phototypes and his parents' persuasion, he would never have done it.
In the TV series, Zhou Bingyi encountered many difficulties when he transformed the optical film a few years later, not to mention now, when Jichun's economy is at its lowest.
As a family of four walked out of Taiping Hutong, Wang Gang said to his two sons: "You have grown up, especially Congcong. He will go to high school soon. Have you ever thought about what you plan to do in the future?"
Zhou Cong glanced at the dilapidated Taiping Hutong and said, "Dad, I have already thought about it. In college, I want to pass the Peking University Department of Architecture and become the best architect in the future."
Wang Gang was not surprised. Zhou Cong had been interested in houses since he was a child and it was not surprising that he wanted to be an architect.
"Beijing University is not easy to pass. With your current results, you will have to work hard in the next three years." Zheng Juan said to her eldest son.
Wang Gang turned to his youngest son Zhou Ming and asked, "What about you?"
Zhou Ming was stunned and said without thinking: "Dad, I'm only in elementary school. Is it too early to think about this now?"
Wang Gang felt a little resentful and said: "You have been playing around since you were young and don't like to study. I don't have the shame to see your grades. Do you want to eat at home and wait to die?"
Zhou Mingnu said, "I won't be able to spend all our family's money in ten lifetimes. What's the point of just eating and waiting to die?"
Wang Gang said angrily: "You two brothers are here today, so I will make it clear that I have made a will a long time ago. After I leave, all my property will be merged into the charity fund, and you can only get basic living expenses every month."
"
The two brothers Zhou Cong were stunned, stunned by this shocking news.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, the two brothers did not beg their father, but instead aroused the pride in their chests.
"Dad, I don't want any living expenses anymore. I will work hard with my own hands from now on." Zhou Cong was the first to express his stance.
"I don't want it either," Zhou Ming said immediately.
Zheng Juan said to her husband: "Stop joking with your children."
Wang Gang said seriously: "I'm not joking. From now on, all our property will be donated to charity funds. I will only leave them a small amount of money, which is enough to ensure that they will not starve to death. But it is absolutely impossible to rely on us to eat and wait to die."
.”
Zheng Juan was also a little surprised at this time.
"You're serious."
Wang Gang nodded and said: "You can't get richer than three. If you want to get rid of this curse, Zhou Cong and Zhou Ming must work hard on their own. If I could fight for this family business, so can they."
Zhou Cong said loudly: "Dad is right. Our conditions now are much better than those of dad at that time. He can make a name for himself, and there is no reason why our brothers can't."
Zhou Ming also agreed with his elder brother's words.
Zheng Juan looked at her two silly sons and knew in her heart that they had no idea what a huge fortune they had given up.
However, she will not oppose her husband's decision. After all, she does not want her son to become a second-generation ancestor and a prodigal son.
It's good now. After knowing that they have no inheritance, Zhou Cong and Zhou Ming will work hard on their own.
As for their future, Zheng Juan has never been worried. Can parents really watch their children suffer?
Wang Gang's thoughts were almost guessed by Zheng Juan. They had been husband and wife for twenty years, and they had already been in tune with each other.
Today, Wang Gang brought his two children to the photo studio. The purpose is very obvious, he is worried that the children will be obsessed with money after knowing about the family property.
After all, Wang Gang has seen too many prodigal sons, and he doesn't want his son to become like that.
After shopping around the photo album, the family of four left by car and returned to the hotel. The water flowed over to notify Wang Gang.
Sun Qianchao and Yu Hong had just arrived in Jichun and were now waiting for him in the hotel reception room.
Wang Gang first sent his wife and children back to the room, and then made up his mind. As soon as he walked out of the door, Zheng Juan said from behind:
"Bingkun, we have been friends for decades, please be merciful and merciful!"
Wang Gang stopped and without looking back, he said, "I know what's going on."
Zheng Juan looked at her husband's leaving figure and felt for a moment that she lost an old friend today.
Wang Gang walked to the reception room alone, where Sun Qunchao and Yu Hong were waiting for him.
After not seeing each other for several years, Sun Qianchao and Yu Hong have changed a lot.
Sun Ganchao wore a decent suit, had his hair slicked back, held a mobile phone in his hand, and had a pager on his waist. There was nothing like the honest worker he once was.
Yu Hong's changes were even greater.
He was dressed in elegant and luxurious clothes, with gold and silver on his hands and neck, giving him the look of a nouveau riche.
The original single eyelids turned into double eyelids. I heard that I went to the country of Xiaoli to get it.
When Sun Qianchao saw Wang Gang, he asked directly: "Bingkun, why are you calling us back in such a hurry? There are a lot of things in the factory waiting for me to deal with?"
