Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 2) Chapter 47.1: The Bitter Heroine (17)
“It’s been a hard day, won’t you treat yourself?” Shao Yu asked with a smile.
Aliang shook his head, thinking that the money he earned all day was only enough to take a rickshaw, Aliang immediately felt that he was not worth it.
“Dad, is it always so hard to earn money?” A Liang asked.
He thought he would get a positive answer from Shao Yu, but he didn’t expect Shao Yu to shake his head.
“Ah? Isn’t that so?” A Liang asked in surprise.
“Smart people earn money as simple as drinking water. They may earn hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of times of what you make a day.” Shao Yu said.
A Liang couldn’t help but start to calculate, but unfortunately he obviously didn’t have any arithmetic foundation, and he couldn’t figure it out. He immediately looked to Shao Yu for help.
Shao Yu chuckled and said, “You don’t even understand money, you still want to make money.”
Aliang sighed and said, “I’m still young, I’ll understand when I grow up.”
“If you don’t study, you won’t understand anything when you grow up.” Shao Yu said.
Aliang wanted to refute, but Shao Yu said: “When you grow up, at most, you will be like me, earning some hard money at the dock. Would you like to live like this all your life?”
Aliang was so sore after just a busy day today, he naturally didn’t want to move goods at the dock all his life.
“If you don’t want to move goods at the dock, what do you want to do?” Shao Yu asked.
A Liang couldn’t understand for a while.
At this time, the father and son happened to pass by the gate of a bank and saw a young man in a suit walking out. The man called a rickshaw without asking the price.
Aliang said immediately: “I want to take a rickshaw just like him.”
“Then do you know what he does?” Shao Yu asked.
Aliang shook his head.
Shao Yu said: “When he came out of the bank, he didn’t even take off the badge on his suit. He should be an employee of the bank.”
“How can I become a bank employee?” A Liang asked with his head raised.
“Study.”
Hearing this, A Liang said immediately: “Dad, please send me to study.”
“Studying costs money. If you don’t study hard, all my money will go down the drain.” Shao Yu shook his head, thinking it was not worth it.
“Dad, don’t worry, I will study hard.” A Liang promised again.
But Shao Yu’s attitude has been unclear.
Aliang couldn’t help it and said, “Dad, if I don’t study hard, I’ll go back to the dock to move the goods!”
For Ah Liang, who has not experienced social beatings at this time, moving goods at the dock is really the hardest thing in the world.
Shao Yu thought for a long time and said, “You continue to follow me to move goods these days.”
Aliang became anxious and said, “Dad, I don’t want to move goods, I want to study…”
“The school is on vacation, where are you going to study now?” Shao Yu asked back.
Aliang didn’t know what to say, but he was still very resistant to moving goods at the dock.
Shao Yu added: “You can’t stand it after only one day of moving. If you move for a few more days, you will know how comfortable your life is.”
Aliang could not refuse, so he could only ask carefully, “What about studying?”
Shao Yu nodded lightly.
Aliang cheered.
The father and son continued to walk forward and passed by a pastry shop. Just standing at the door, the rich fragrance inside came out in waves.
Shao Aliang’s stomach growled, and he was standing at the door, a little reluctant to leave.
“Dad, I want to eat…” A Liang said pitifully.
“What do you want me to do, you have the money.”
Shao Aliang touched his hard-earned silver coins, and summoned the courage to ask the price of the pastry shop’s work.
The clerk was kind enough to help him calculate what he could buy in the shop when he saw the money in Aliang’s hand.
The price of cake is not cheap, and all the money in Ah Liang’s hand can only buy a few pieces.
Aliang looked at the pastries in the shop and drooled, but the money in his hand was earned by his hard work.
To hand over the money he earned through hard work like this, Aliang was immediately filled with reluctance.
“Do you want to buy it?” Shao Yu asked.
Aliang stood there, unable to make up his mind for a long time, the scent kept pouring into his nose, but he kept recalling the hard work he had done today.
“Buy it if you want.” Shao Yu said.
Aliang finally shook his head, and then he pulled Shao Yu and left the pastry shop as if escaping, fearing that he would not be able to withstand the temptation if he was late, and bought something he shouldn’t buy.
Shao Yu didn’t expect that this child would have such determination, so he didn’t say anything.
It was dark when the father and son got home.
Aliang was dirty, tired and hungry.
Liu Cuifen saw that her son had become like a little beggar after going out for one day, and she was so anxious that she complained to Shao Yu: “Where did you take your son? Did you take him to beg for food?”
Not waiting for Shao Yu to answer, A Liang said, “I went to the dock to move goods.”
Liu Cuifen heard this, she was so sad, and said, “How old are you, how can you do such heavy goods.”
Thinking of how much her son had suffered today, Liu Cuifen wanted to complain to Shao Yu again.
“He doesn’t complain, what are you complaining about?” Shao Yu asked.
This sentence directly blocked all the complaints that Liu Cuifen did not say.
“I’m going tomorrow.” A Liang whispered.
Liu Cuifen immediately called out: “Are you going?”
A Liang nodded, after all, this was the condition he had agreed with Shao Yu.
Liu Cuifen was helpless, she wanted to object, but seeing that her son seemed willing, there was no reason to stop, and Shao Yingniang’s child at home had to be taken care of by her, so she was so distracted, Liu Cuifen couldn’t take it anymore.
Aliang woke up the next morning and felt a sore back, as if something was wrong.
People who have not worked for a long time and suddenly work hard will easily feel such soreness. Aliang just felt it was very unbearable. At this time, he was lying on the bed and couldn’t get up after shouting for a long time.
Shao Yu walked in and asked, “Aren’t you going today?”
Aliang wanted to nod.
But Shao Yu said: “The opportunity to study is not so easy to take.”
Aliang’s face was full of struggle. When he thought of suffering like yesterday, Aliang felt that his eyes went dark.
