Chapter 87: Old Family’s Phone Call
"Why are you looking for me in such a hurry? Do you miss me?"
As soon as he entered the office, Ye Chen changed into a playful and smiling face.
Su Ruoxue rolled her eyes at him, took out a box from under the table and threw it on the table.
As the box opened, Ye Chen saw brand-new red banknotes appearing in front of his eyes.
"What does this mean?" Ye Chen's face was a little confused.
"There is one million in it. You use it to pay off loan sharks. I don't know why you owe so much money, and I don't want to pursue it."
"I hope you can be down-to-earth in the future, even if you go to the construction site to move bricks, and don't develop any bad habits!" Su Ruoxue sat on the stool, her voice a little hoarse.
It cannot be denied that Su Ruoxue has been looking at Ye Chen with old eyes.
She always felt that Ye Chen was a man who was idle and had nothing to do.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been out of prison for so long, and he wouldn't have been able to find a job.
"I don't owe any money, and I won't be able to use this money. You can keep it for yourself." Ye Chen sat on the sofa with his arms crossed, an indifferent attitude.
With this look, Su Ruoxue was so angry that smoke was rising from her head.
"I don't care about you anymore. Whenever you let people from the Feilong Chamber of Commerce block the road, let me see what you do!" Su Ruoxue angrily threw the suitcase under the sofa and stopped talking to Ye Chen.
"If you have nothing to do tomorrow, come with me to a party." Su Ruoxue rubbed her face and said calmly.
"What party? Why do you have parties every day?" Ye Chen was very confused.
In his impression, Su Ruoxue had a small gathering every three days and a big gathering every five days.
There is almost no time to eat at home.
"Don't ask so many questions, just do whatever I ask you to do!"
"I'm going to be busy, you should leave first." Su Ruoxue impatiently issued an eviction order.
Ye Chen was too lazy to waste any time, so he got up and went downstairs.
Along the way, many people from the Yuelong Group pointed at him and whispered to him.
The general content is also very simple. I am just curious about why Su Ruoxue, who has always been cool and charming, fell in love with an ordinary-looking reform-through-labor prisoner.
However, Ye Chen automatically ignored these words. He was too tired to live in other people's mouths.
As soon as he arrived at the door, Ye Chen's cell phone rang in his pocket with a series of unknown calls.
"Hello, who are you?"
"Is it Xiaoye? I heard you came out. Is it true?" An old woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
A familiar feeling appeared in Ye Chen's mind.
But I really can’t remember who it was.
"It's me, who are you?"
"I'm your Aunt Ping, you can't even recognize my voice?" The old woman on the other end said excitedly after confirming Ye Chen's identity.
Ye Chen patted his head and finally remembered who the so-called Aunt Ping was.
Before Ye Chen's grandfather passed away, the two of them lived in a remote rural area.
This Aunt Ping was my neighbor at the time, her full name was Li Ping, and she should be about 50 years old this year.
When I was young, I was married from another place. I can be said to be a flower in the village.
But it is a pity that her husband died early when he was young, leaving a daughter to depend on each other.
As the saying goes, there are many disputes at the widow's door. At that time, there were a few old bachelors in the village who saw how pretty Li Ping was and often harassed her.
Grandpa Ye Chen was always a person who couldn't rub the dirt out of his eyes, so he often helped Li Ping clean up these old bachelors.
As time went by, the two families became familiar with each other.
During the time when Ye Chen was in prison, only Li Ping would take time to visit him in prison.
"Haha, my head has been a little short-circuited recently." Ye Chen said haha, which eased the embarrassment.
"You kid, why didn't you tell your aunt that you were released from prison? I happened to be in the city today to do some business, and I was thinking about going to the prison to see you, but the warden told me that you have been released from prison for a long time." Li Ping's voice was full of complaints.
.
"It's my fault, aunt, where are you? I'm looking for you. I haven't seen you for a long time." Ye Chen admitted his mistake.
After asking for Li Ping's address, she took a taxi there.
After arriving at the location, Ye Chen found that it was the entrance of a high-end office building.
Li Ping was sitting on the stone pier wearing some shabby and yellowed clothes.
His weather-beaten face was filled with haggardness.
There was a yellow bamboo basket on his back, with some food and other things in it.
Seeing this, Ye Chen felt his heart twitch.
In the past, every time Li Ping visited the prison, she would bring some food from home.
Corn, sweet potatoes, etc.
Although this thing is not rare now, nor is it valuable.
But Ye Chen knew that this thing had far exceeded its value.
"Aunt!" After getting off the car, Ye Chen waved eagerly.
After Li Ping heard the voice, she stood up excitedly and walked toward Ye Chen with one staggering step.
"Xiaoye, it's good when you come out. Don't do stupid things again. You're young and you're not afraid of making mistakes. As long as you change your ways, we'll still be good kids."
"The prodigal son returns with gold!" Li Ping said, touching Ye Chen's angular face.
"I understand, aunt, let's go. I'll treat you to a meal tonight. What's wrong with your legs?"
Ye Chen was a little curious.
I vaguely remember that Li Ping visited the prison once half a year ago.
Although my legs and feet are not very good as I get older, I won't be limping.
A trace of panic flashed across Li Ping's face, and she smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I'm old and useless. I accidentally fell down when I went to work in the fields last time, and that's what happened."
This made Ye Chen feel a flash of distress in his heart.
"Auntie, you are already at this age. We will no longer farm the land in our village. When I come out, you will be my biological mother from now on, and I will be filial to you." Ye Chen took Li Ping's wrinkled hand and said.
"Hey, what is filial piety and not filial piety? Wait, let me go to dinner first. Let me tell you some good news. Xiaoqian works here." Li Ping said with a smile.
"Really? Xiaoqian has grown up."
Xiaoqian, whose full name is Wen Qianqian, is Li Ping's biological daughter.
He is about the same age as Ye Chen, and the two of them often played together when they were young.
At that time, Wen Qianqian was often scolded as a little bastard without a father. Every time, Ye Chen would take action and beat those children away.
I vaguely remember that when she was eighteen years old, Wen Qianqian was admitted to a famous university in Lanhai City.
The two of them were leaning on the hilltop in the village.
Under the sun, Wen Qianqian said that after finishing college, she would marry Ye Chen.
At that time, Ye Chen was relatively naive, so he was serious.
But when Wen Qianqian went to college, the two of them called each other from once a day to not having a call in a month.
At that time, Ye Chen knew that the distance between the two of them was getting farther and farther.
"By the way, Xiaoye, do you have a job now?" Li Ping changed the topic and asked.
Ye Chen shook his head.
"Xiaoqian has been working here for a year. In this way, when she comes out later, I will find a way for her to arrange a job for you. You may have to start from the bottom. We don't mind it. We have just come out, and there will be many places.
Don’t want it.”
"Let's work step by step from the bottom. Gold will always shine. My aunt has been very optimistic about you since she was a child!" Li Ping said with a smile.
Due to various problems, the address has been changed. Please save the new address to avoid getting lost.
