Chapter 158 Ready to go home
"How much did you buy here in total?" Zhang Hongyu's eyes widened.
He Guiquan closed his mouth wisely and said nothing. However, his shock could be seen from his eyes. He was really convinced by his elder brother-in-law and sister-in-law.
"It's only part of it, most of it was thrown away. Your brother and I have been working here all the money here over the years. At first, your brother bought it alone, but I advised him not to persuade him to stay. Later, I bought it with him. I bought it a lot and became familiar with the boss who bought underground lottery, so he asked us to help him watch the hotel, mainly to help him sell lottery tickets." Liu Chuntao smiled.
"You couple, really, do you remember that you still have two children? After so many years of leaving, I haven't sent a penny back and I haven't called a single phone call. You are doing well. Do you know how much trouble the two old men have for you? Do you know how much wronged the two children have suffered because of you?" Zhang Hongyu said furiously.
"We want to go back too. But every time we earn money, we buy lottery tickets and can't even make up the travel expenses. How do you ask us to go back?" Liu Chuntao said.
"Did you win the lottery for so many years?" He Guiquan asked.
"Won't you win, why haven't you? I won tens of thousands at the beginning. I advised your brother to stop and go back. Your brother called me a shameless one, saying that he had figured out the rules of buying lottery tickets and would soon win the jackpot. As a result, tens of thousands of yuan were gone." Liu Chuntao said.
"That time did you win?" He Guiquan asked.
"Of course not only, but later I won a big one for more than 100,000 yuan. I originally wanted to go back to build a house with your brother. Before leaving, your brother said he would take another bet on a big one and go back to build a big house, and then accompany the two brothers and sisters of Jiling and Jidong at home." Liu Chuntao said.
"As a result, I lost all the money again." Zhang Hongyu said.
Liu Chuntao nodded: "Later, I thought that as long as I win more than 100,000, I would never buy the lottery again. But I never won the grand prize in the next one."
"You have such a daydream, and you two deserve to be unlucky! Do you want to live like this for the rest of your life? If you can't win the grand prize in this life, you will be prepared not to go back to Shuanghe?" Zhang Hongyu said.
"I have no shame to go back. I have been out for so many years and have gone back with my hands empty. I really don't have this face." Zhang Hongbing lowered his head, his eyes were red.
Liu Chuntao kept crying. Liu Chuntao never returned to Shuanghe, nor her parents' home. Liu Chuntao's family always thought that Zhang Hongbing had done something to Liu Chuntao, but he had never found any evidence. So he always turned against the Zhang family and even refused to recognize his two granddaughters.
Zhang Hongyu said: "My father and mother have built a new house at home. Today you must go back and get a beam and fire. Come to me to get tens of thousands of yuan, and say you saved it. After the Chinese New Year, I will go to the factory with us. I will not be allowed to touch lottery tickets in the future. I will use tens of thousands of yuan to build a house. When I build a new house, you must return it to me."
Zhang Hongyu naturally couldn't ignore this brother, and could only think of this way.
He Guiquan has always been very supportive of his wife's decision: "Yes, brother, sister-in-law, you can't continue like this anymore. You have to think about Jiling Jidong. The two siblings, like children without parents, can't even raise their heads in the village."
"You know that last year Guiquan went home. When Guiquan and I went back, it was snowing and the two siblings stood outside. I asked what they were doing? Although they didn't say it, I knew that they were looking forward to you going back. This place is a lottery, and you two stayed here. You will definitely not be able to help buying it if you have money. No matter how high the boss pays you, you can't save the money. Hurry up and quit the errand. Our factory will have a holiday in a few days, and we will go back together. You go to our factory dormitory to live in. It just so happens that there are empty beds in the dormitory in the factory." Zhang Hongyu said.
After Zhang Hongyu said this, Zhang Hongbing and his wife were a little moved. Liu Chuntao burst into tears and said to Zhang Hongbing: "Hongbing, why don't we follow Hongyu, go back! These days, I have dreamed of Jiling and Jidong in my dreams. Or the way we came out, I don't know what we look like now."
"Brother, this time, I will tie you up with you couple even if I tie you up! Otherwise, I will send a telegram to call my father and others over," said Zhang Hongyu.
"Go back, can't I go back? But I help others manage the hotel and have to tell others. The boss is still very good. I trust me and your sister-in-law," said Zhang Hongbing.
"Then look for it now. You must have your boss' phone number, call him and talk." Zhang Hongyu said.
Zhang Hongbing had no choice but to call the boss at Zhang Hongyu's urging. The hotel owner was actually the dealer of the underground lottery at this point. Usually, Zhang Hongbing and his wife were in front of him. He just took the money behind the scenes. After receiving a call from Zhang Hongbing, he said "just come" and hung up the phone.
"What do your boss say?" Zhang Hongyu asked.
"He comes as soon as he says." Zhang Hongbing said.
"Then we are waiting for him in the river." Zhang Hongyu said.
Not long after, the hotel owner Xue Huashun rushed over.
Xue Huashun's dress is quite nouveau riche style, with a thick gold necklace hanging around her neck. She wrists on her left hand and a string of sandalwood beads. She wears a gold bracelet on her right hand and a latest mobile phone in her hand.
"Bingzi, I have always trusted you very much, and I have left everything to you. You suddenly want to leave. Where can I find someone I can trust for a while?" Xue Huashun said.
Zhang Hongyu hurriedly said, "Boss Xue, my brother and sister-in-law have been out for many years, and have never been back, and have never even called. There are two children in the family. I haven't seen my parents for seven or eight years. If I hadn't met my brother at the train station this time, my family wouldn't even know what he was doing."
"Bingzi, this is the wrong thing for you couple. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought there was no one in your family. Forget it, I would find a way to go back to celebrate the New Year first. Don't you have money? I know that you couple love to buy lottery tickets, so they can buy lottery tickets if they have some money. I am a lottery seller, but I never buy it myself. Otherwise, I would have lost all my family. I will click the cash for the past few days and hand over the account. Then go back. After the New Year, if you still want to come to me, I will leave this hotel to you couple." Xue Huashun was easy to speak, maybe because he trusted Zhang Hongbing and his wife, and seemed to hope that Zhang Hongbing and his wife would continue to come and see him at this hotel.
Although Zhang Hongbing and his wife were addicted to buying lottery tickets, they never used hotels and bonus money. The accounts were calculated clearly every time and never made any mistakes.
After the bill was settled, it was not bad at all. Xue Huashun was very happy: "I can just let go of you couple doing things. You have worked with me for so many years, and you can't let you couple go back to your hometown empty-handed. You can take this money back to celebrate the New Year, which is the bonus I have given you over the years."
Xue Huashun took out two red tickets from inside. One ticket was 10,000 yuan, totaling 20,000 yuan. Xue Huashun thought about it, took another one and nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Thirty thousand yuan should be enough for you to go back and have a good New Year."
