When Li Tianming got home, he called his uncle, Dong Zhigang, to ask about his aunt's recent situation.
Li Junlan's condition in the hospital was not bad. Now, it basically did not affect her daily life.
The hospital was also actively operating a kidney source, and he believed that it would be available soon. As for why they were so proactive, it must be because they had stuffed soft RMB into their pockets.
When it was time to get off work, Li Tianming went next door to see Ma Jiang and Zhang Liping.
The couple had cleaned up the house very well and decorated it well.
Zhang Liping had also specially bought a lot of potted plants, saying that it was to add a little green and natural atmosphere to the house.
Zhang Liping busied herself for a long time and cooked a table full of dishes. She invited Li Tianming over for dinner, and Li Tianming naturally agreed.
In 2009, there were no takeout websites, and the takeout was done by calling the restaurant directly. It was very inconvenient for a bachelor.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Li Tianming had just returned to his room when his cellphone rang.
It was Li Tianming's mother.
"Tianming, when are you coming home?"
Li Tianming thought for a moment. The ancient porcelain restoration tools hadn't arrived yet, and he didn't have anything to do in the next few days. He said that he would go back tomorrow.
" Tianming, let me tell you, your…" Li Tianming's mother wanted to say something but hesitated. She then said," Forget it. We'll talk about it when you come back tomorrow."”
Early the next morning, Li Tianming boarded the bus to Qingyun County alone.
Qingyun County wasn't far from Binzhou City. It would only take about three hours by bus.
Even so, it was already past noon when they arrived at their home in the county town.
Her mother was very happy that her son was back. Even her sister and brother-in-law came over.
His sister, Li Yujia, and brother-in-law, Lin Feng, were in charge of cooking in the kitchen.
His mother, Zhao Ru, kept asking him to eat fruits.
"Mom, I can't eat anymore. Where's Dad?”Li Tianming asked.
"I went to buy something. I'll be back in a while.”
As he was speaking, Li Tianming's father, Li Qingjiang, returned with a roasted chicken in his hand.
Li Tianming knew that it was the roast chicken from the Ma family's shop. It was his favorite since he was young.
Li Qingjiang sat on the sofa with a serious expression.
Li Tianming became nervous. If his father had such an expression, it was definitely not good.
"Tianming, let me ask you something." Li Qingjiang said.
"You can ask."
"Originally, if you're willing to pay to help your aunt, we, as parents, would naturally be very happy. It means that this son of yours wasn't raised in vain.”
When Li Qingjiang said this, Li Tianming knew what was going on and heaved a sigh of relief.
"But, where did you get so much money? How much do you earn every month?”
Li Tianming smiled and said," Dad, don't worry. I didn't steal or rob anything. I don't gamble, and I didn't borrow from any loan sharks. The source of this money is absolutely clean!”
"Then how did you earn it? There has to be a background, right?"
Hearing Li Qingjiang's words, his mother, Zhao Ru, was unhappy.""Look at you, what are you so excited about! Didn't the child already say that this was decent money!”
"Dad, Mom, it's like this. I've recently learned some knowledge about antiques by myself. I bought a few items from the antique market and sold them for a lot of money.”Li Tianming explained half-truthfully.
"Antiques?" Li Qingjiang looked at his son in confusion.
"Yes, I didn't expect to earn so much either. I guess I was lucky.”
Li Qingjiang nodded. Although he still had doubts, he could not find anything wrong.
"Alright, be careful in the future. In the end, this is also considered speculation. You can earn money for a while, but you can't earn it forever.”
" Your dad is right," Zhao Ru said." You don't have a job now, so you should think of something. Don't just sit there and do nothing."”
Tianming Li's parents were civil servants who worked for the government. They were more traditional, so Tianming Li didn't want to talk too much with them.
"Don't worry, I'm looking for a job!”
At this moment, his sister, Li Yujia, came out of the kitchen with two dishes.
"Dad, Mom, Tianming is already so old and has his own ideas. Don't blindly interfere.”Li Yujia said.
Li Qingjiang said," How can that be? No matter how big he is, he is still a son."”
"Dad is right." Li Tianming took the plate from his sister and placed it on the table.
Soon, a table full of food was prepared. There was wine and meat, and it was especially sumptuous. It was all Li Tianming's favorite food.
Li Tianming clinked glasses with his brother-in-law, Lin Feng, and downed the beer in one gulp.
"Brother-in-law, how have you been recently? Is work going well?"
When Lin Feng heard this, he sighed." Don't mention it. The leader originally said that he would promote me to an assistant department at the beginning of the year. Now, it looks like it's basically a failure."”
Lin Feng was working in the county's Land and Resources Bureau. He was almost thirty years old. If he couldn't get promoted, it would mean that he wouldn't have a chance in the future.
After saying that, Li Yujia put down her chopsticks and said angrily,""I get angry when I talk about this. I told you to express your gratitude to the leader during the New Year, but you didn't listen.”
"Show? What do you mean?" Lin Feng was not convinced either." We still have a mortgage!" She still had to raise a child! The expenses were so huge! Do you want to use the money you earned? How is it enough?"
His sister and brother-in-law bought a house that was a little over 100 square meters last year. Although the house in the county town was only a little over 1,000 square meters this year, it was still a big burden for the family, so they still borrowed 60 to 70 thousand yuan.
