Chapter 685 Gu Haifan Returns to His Hometown (2)
Gu Haifan took turns going to each family that had helped him to express his gratitude. He will always remember the twenty-three families who helped him.
Some people think Gu Haifan has a grateful heart, but some people think he is stingy and stingy. An old lady with family members said: "His great-aunt is said to be a billionaire. She is so rich and she comes to thank her empty-handed. This is too stingy."
Not only are you stingy, but you also don’t know etiquette. How can you come to say thank you with nothing?
Her man took a puff of his dry cigarette and said: "This kid is still in school, how can he have any money? And when we sent him food, we did it because we felt sorry for him and didn't want him to starve to death, and we didn't want him to give anything in return."
When he met his wife and wanted to talk more, the old man said, "Okay, as long as Haifan has this kind of heart. Many people are out there and never come back. This kid will at least come to say thank you."
In fact, he also felt that this child did not understand etiquette. It's true that the old lady didn't know how to teach the child well when she took her over. They don't care about their own family, and they will easily offend others with this temperament when they enter society in the future.
When the old lady saw that he was unhappy, she stopped talking.
Gu Haifan stayed at Uncle Liu's house at night. When he had breakfast the next day, he said, "Uncle, I'll go back later. I'll come back when my dad is repairing the grave."
Uncle Liu was shocked: "Why did you return to Hong Kong City so soon?"
Gu Haifan explained: "I'm not going back to Hong Kong City, I'm going back to Forty-Nine City. I still have some things to deal with. I'll come back when my dad is repairing his grave."
He had to go back to accompany Gu Xiuxiu, and then he had to exercise and read. Now that I have finished my exams, I can read medical books. He has a good memory and does not have a photographic memory, but he can remember it after reading it two or three times. It was because of his talent that Lu Jiaxin did not stop him from studying medicine.
There is a joke in later generations, saying that it is a thunderbolt to persuade people to study medicine, because studying medicine is really hard. However, the high status and high salary obtained after studying are also considerable. Gu Haifan studied medicine because his father died of illness, so he wanted to study medicine to treat more people like his father.
When he heard that he was going back to Sijiu City, Liu Bogong didn't keep him.
When Gu Haifan arrived at the county town, he did not leave immediately by car. Instead, he took two bodyguards to the shopping mall. Two hours later, he left the county town by car with a bodyguard, and Zhang Kun returned to Gujiacun with a loaded tractor.
When Liu Bogong was called back from the fields, he was still a little confused. He saw Zhang Kun looking around but did not see Gu Haifan: "Comrade Zhang, where is Haifan?
Zhang Kun said vaguely: "Master Biao has gone back. Master Biao said that many people helped him and wanted to repay everyone, so he bought some things to give to everyone to express his gratitude."
After speaking, he pointed at the gifts and said with a smile: "There are twenty-three in total, and the names are written on the bags. Sixth Uncle, I can't tell these people apart. Please lead them down the road."
"good."
Twenty-three thank-you gifts were prepared, and these twenty-three families had all helped Gu Haifan. When I sent it to the first family, there was an old lady and a young daughter-in-law.
After Zhang Kun asked the old lady her name, he moved everything in, then took out a red envelope from his backpack and handed it to the old lady. The young daughter-in-law wanted to pick her up, but he avoided her.
Zhang Kun explained: "My young cousin has specifically told me that this money must be handed over to Aunt Chun personally. If you rob Aunt Chun of her money, you will never let her go when you come back next time."
The latter sentence was added by him. When I come back to repair the tomb, I must bring more people with me. Well, I must bring female bodyguards, so that I won't be afraid of women acting inappropriately.
The young daughter-in-law was a little embarrassed when she heard this, but her eyes were fixed on the red envelope. It looks very thick. I don’t know how many denominations are inside. It would be great if it’s one hundred.
After sending the things and collecting the red envelope, Zhang Kun immediately went to the second house.
The granddaughter-in-law waited for them to leave and immediately urged the old lady to take out the money in the red envelope to see how much it was. The old lady didn't fall for the trick, so she took the money and went into the house to hide it.
Liu Bogong also said: "It's enough to give me something. How can I pay back the money?"
Zhang Kun said with a smile: "Master Biao said that when everyone was having a hard time, he still squeezed food from his teeth to support him. Now that he has some spare energy, he wants to repay their kindness."
Uncle Gu Haifan and his uncle's family got the news and came to ask for money and things, but they got nothing. Zhang Kun said very rudely: "You were worried that the village would ask you to support the young master Biao, so you spread rumors about the young master Biao and said that he killed your father. How can you have the nerve to ask for benefits now?"
Seeing the two people denying it, Zhang Kun said: "Don't let others know but don't do anything except yourself. Get out of my way if you are sensible, and don't blame me for being rude if you block my way again."
Gu Haifan's uncle and brother-in-law looked at him with a fierce expression, and the two of them couldn't help but move away. This person is not easy to mess with at first glance, and he is not a nephew, so there is no benefit in falling out with him.
Before Zhang Kun left, he said to his sixth uncle in front of many people: "My cousin is still studying, and the old lady only gives him some pocket money every month. My cousin had a hard life in the past, and he couldn't bear to spend all the pocket money." Save up. The cost of this purchase plus the red envelope has already spent all the pocket money he has saved over the years."
This means that Gu Haifan has no money now, so don't worry about it anymore. It is also Gu Haifan who will come back to repair the grave in a few days and vaccinate everyone in advance.
After saying this, Zhang Kun left. As soon as he left, everyone started asking how much money each family gave him. Some are tight-lipped, but most of them can't hide things. Soon everyone discovered that the red envelopes given by Gu Haifan were of different amounts, and the ones who got less were a bit uneven.
There is no shortage of smart people in this world. Soon someone said: "Hai Fan gave everyone the same gift, but the red envelope was given according to how much help he received. The more you help, the bigger the red envelope, the less you help, the less you give, and the red envelope and the things that were not given to those who did not help."
Everyone thought about it and found that what he said was true. A kind person asked Sixth Uncle: "You helped Hai Fan so much in the past, he must have given a big red envelope, right?"
Sixth Uncle was very tight-lipped and said that it was about the same as everyone else. It's just that not only outsiders want to know about this, but also family members want to know how big the red envelope is.
The red envelope was very thick, and Sixth Uncle knew that there were several thousand without taking it out to count. Urged by his wife and son, he couldn't resist and opened the red envelope. When he counted, he found that there were actually 100 bills. You know, the denominations are all 100!
Gu Haifan gave things and money to those who helped him, and Lu Jiaxin soon knew about this. She called Gu Haifan and said, "You did this inappropriately."
Gu Haifan said that he just wanted to repay the favor.
Lu Jiaxin said: "It's good that you want to repay the favor, but you should wait until your father's grave is repaired before you return. You will go to the village to repair your father's grave next month, and you will not be able to rest in peace then."
Gu Haifan was silent for a while and said: "Cousin, I just want them to make a fuss. They won't get a penny after making a fuss, and they will live in regret every day in the future."
It seems that the incident at the beginning left a deep trauma on this child. Now that he wants to retaliate against these people, Lu Jiaxin will not stop him. But the reminders should still be said to avoid losses.
Lu Jiaxin said: "Next time you go back, bring a few more bodyguards and let them follow you closely. Be sure to pay attention to your own safety."
"Okay, thank you cousin."
