Chapter 102 Suddenly Open
The next morning, before dawn, Chu Changtian got up early.
After a simple wash, he hurried out of the door.
As soon as he left, Chu Nan quietly followed him. He wanted to see what his father was doing.
Half an hour later, Chu Changtian took a bus, while Chu Nan went to the roadside breakfast shop to buy two cages of steamed buns and a cup of soy milk, then stopped a taxi and ordered the driver to follow behind the bus.
Twenty minutes later, when the bus arrived at the station, Chu Changtian took the car and went straight to a construction site not far away. At the same time, Chu Nan still quietly followed him, but so far he was very sure that he was right. Dad was really working on the construction site.
"Lao Chu, you have been working for two days in a row, and you are still working so hard. Can your body bear it?" Seeing that Chu Changtian came to work again, a colleague on the construction site said.
It turned out that Chu Changtian did not plan to go home last night. The work on the construction site was calculated by the hour. He could earn more money by doing an extra hour. However, because the working hours were too long and too tired, Chu Changtian felt a little uncomfortable last night, and his physical strength was a little weak, so he went home and rested all night.
"I can't help it. Life is compelling!" Chu Changtian kept picking up a helmet, reported to the foreman, and was ready to start work.
Speaking of his illness, his family's savings have been spent almost all, and he owes a lot of debts, even his previous store has been sold. I want to do some business, have no capital, and want to find a better job, but now it is difficult to find any job. As a last resort, he had to come to the construction site as a porter. However, as long as you are diligent and do more, the income is still very objective.
At this time, Chu Changtian struggled to carry a bag of cement and was about to walk. Suddenly, he felt much easier on his shoulder. Looking back, he saw that Chu Nan was carrying the bag of cement in one hand, frowning and looking at himself. When he looked carefully, Chu Changtian could clearly see that his son's eyes were slowly moist. , the handsome face is also full of shame.
"Dad, let's eat something first. What do you need to do? I'll do it for you first." In the face of his father, Chu Nan did not ask him why he lied, but tried to squeeze out a smile, but his voice trembled a little.
For a moment, Chu Changtian didn't know what to say. He wanted to scold Chu Nan. Who told the boy to follow him, but when he saw his son's red eyes and the shame on his face, he couldn't bear it.
He moved the cement on his father's shoulder to his shoulder. Chu Nan handed over the hot steamed buns and soy milk to his father. He smiled with tears and asked, "Dad, where are you going to send this bag of cement?"
"Fool, put it down and wait for your school uniform to get dirty." Chu Changtian's voice also became trembling, and his eyes were a little wet, but he still showed his father's strength.
"The school uniform is dirty and can be washed. If you are tired, where can I find another father?" Chu Nan said seriously. But what's the harm if you can help Dad share the hard work, let alone dirty the school uniform, even if you take off a layer of skin?
Chu Changtian can't resist his son. He knows his son's personality. Now if he is driven away, he will not do it, so he will help him designate a place and ask him to send the cement.
"Dad, how many bags of cement do you carry a day?" Chu Nan asked for no reason, which meant nothing.
Now, there is no need for Chu Changtian to continue to lie. He has been caught by this boy. If there is anything else to say, he said, "There are more than 200 bags."
Chu Nan smiled and hooked his feet. He saw a bag of cement sitting on his shoulders in an orderly manner. Soon, ten bags of cement had been carried on his shoulders. Although the spine was a little bent, his face did not change, but still smiled and said to Chu Changtian, "In this case, it only takes 20 times, I It can help you complete the whole day's work. You can have some breakfast first. I can stand it.
After saying that, Chu Nan walked straight to his destination, but it was obvious that his pace was very heavy, but as he said, it was completely withstandable.
Seeing this scene, all the workers around were dumbfounded and couldn't believe what they saw now.
You know, a bag of cement here is 40 kilograms. Even if a strong man can carry two bags at most, this boy carried ten bags at a time, equivalent to a total weight of 400 kilograms. Such a heavy weight falls on his shoulder, and he can still move freely. He is really a natural god. Power!
"Lao Chu, who is this boy? What does he do? The foreman looked at Chu Nan's back in disbelief and asked Chu Changtian.
"He is my son or a student." Chu Changtian answered truthfully. At this time, he felt a little proud. Of course, what he was proud of was not that Chu Nan could carry ten bags of cement at a time, but because his son had grown up and was sensible. He knew how to think of his family and share it for his family.
"Your son is really awesome. I said, Lao Chu, if your son is willing to work on the construction site, let him come to me, and I will give him double his salary. The foreman said expectantly. Chunan's workload can reach ten people. Which boss doesn't want a good employee like this?
Chu Changtian smiled and said nothing.
There is no reason why parents in the world don't want their children to become talented. Even if their children are difficult to become great, I believe that no parents will want their children to come to the construction site as porters.
When Chu Changtian finished breakfast, Chu Nan had also completed the transportation.
Chu Changtian's whole day's work can be said to have been arranged by Chu Nan. Although Chu Nan was tired and out of breath at this time, his face was full of a satisfied smile.
No wonder this is the first time he has helped his father. In the future, if someone asks him, what you have done for his father since childhood, he will not be speechless. He can say openly that I have helped my father carry cement!
"Lao Chu, since your son has finished all your work today, you can go home early to rest and start work tomorrow. Today's wages will be doubled for you later. For nothing else, it's for your son's filial piety. The foreman patted Chu Changtian on the shoulder, looked deeply at Chu Nan with that admiring look, and then left with a smile.
Chu Nan took a look at the time, and it was time to go to class. He smiled and said, "Dad, it's time for me to go to class. You should also go home early and have a rest. If you are free in the future, I will often come to help you work.
Chu Nan did not persuade his father to give up the job, because he knew his father's temper. No matter how he persuaded him, it was useless. Mom was an example.
In fact, as long as you can live a fuller life, it's nothing. Now that I and the little girl Chu Xingyue have jobs, and my parents also have income. If it continues like this, it will be difficult to think about the life at home in the future.
Isn't this life?
Chu Changtian stretched out his hand to help Chu Nan wipe away the sweat from his head, and then handed over a bottle of mineral water to him. He said guiltily, "Xiaochen, on the day you just came home, Dad said a lot of very unpleasant things. You don't blame Dad, do you?"
Indeed, on the day Chu Nan was just released from prison, Chu Changtian did not have much hope for his future report, thinking that he would definitely continue to embark on the old road and live his former life. But today, it seems that Chu Changtian feels that he is wrong. His son has really changed, become filial, low-key and modest. It should be noted that before, if this boy was allowed to carry cement in full view of the public, he would not do such a shameful job.
Chu Nan unscrewed the cap, drank the whole bottle of mineral water, wiped his mouth, and smiled, "You're right. I was too ignorant before to cause trouble for you and your mother, and I won't do it again. By the way, Xiaoyue and I both have jobs now. I think as long as our family works hard, it won't be long before our family will return to a well-off life. The key is that as long as our family can be happy together, it is more important than anything else.
Hearing this, Chu Changtian frowned slightly and said worried, "You and your sister have jobs? What kind of work will affect learning?
"My sister and I work as waiter in a restaurant. We only work at night, and the monthly salary is not bad. I will take care of my sister, which will not affect her study or make her have trouble. Don't worry.
With Chu Nan's guarantee, Chu Changtian was also relieved. At the same time, Chu Nan gave him great hope. Although life is a little tired now, as the boy said, as long as the family works together, life will get better sooner or later. Most importantly, it is enough for a family to be happy together.
"Okay, I'm going to class."
After saying that, Chu Nan turned around and left. He didn't want to take a few steps. He only heard Chu Changtian suddenly say, "Son..."
Chu Nan stopped when he heard the words, then turned around and looked at his father puzzledly. Then he saw Chu Changtian smile and said sincerely, "Welcome home!"
Since Chu Nan was released from prison, Chu Changtian has not officially welcomed his son home. At present, he believes that he should express himself and sincerely.
Chu Nan smiled and said nothing, but his heart was very happy. He immediately waved his hand and walked to the school full of happiness.
From childhood to age, Chu Nan has never felt so happy. Even if he once had something that many people dreamed of, he has never been as happy as today. What makes him happy and happy is just a word from his father, but from Chu Nan, there are many things in this sentence, including blood-rich family affection, father's sincerity, father's forgiveness for himself, and kind and warm fatherly love!
These things can't be bought with money, let alone by fighting and killing!
Isn't it happy that a family can live happily together, live a down-to-earth life and live an ordinary life?
Chu Nan is suddenly enlightened...
