Chapter 273: The Little Cannon Fodder in the Story of Running with the Ball 11
"Dad, the money is all here, and you still don't believe it! But this is not just the money I made from stocks. I also took some jobs online, and it took a long time to get this much. But we still have time. I will think of a way to double the money before the baby is born, so that you don't have to worry too much about spending money." Zheng Xiaoxiao said to herself.
"Ah? Did I hear it right, Manman? Child, doubled before the baby is born? Oh my god, when did money become so easy to make?" Zheng Bin began to doubt his life.
How could his daughter make making money sound so easy? That was hundreds of thousands! He had worked hard and saved money for most of his life, and only saved more than 200,000! But could his daughter earn so much with just her pocket money? Isn't this too dreamy?
"Then, girl, can I do this job?" When he got his girl's affirmative words, he suddenly felt that his senior chef certificate was no longer useful, and he even wanted to consider changing his career.
"Puchi!" Zheng Xiaoxiao laughed out loud, thinking her dad was so cute. "You can do this job, but you won't like it. You will fall asleep." Zheng Xiaoxiao joked with his dad!
"That's absolutely impossible. As long as I can make money legally, I will work hard no matter how much I want to sleep!" How could I sleep? That's money! Much more than what he made as a cook!
"Okay, next time you take a break, I'll teach you and see if you can stick to it!" Zheng Xiaoxiao was sure that his father couldn't do this job, as he was a complete loser in elementary school when he was studying.
"Okay! But no matter what, you don't have to buy me such expensive clothes. I can buy other clothes that are comfortable to wear and can wear many sets!" Zheng Bin still felt a little distressed, but his daughter cut off all the tags. He had no choice but to go to the room to carefully change the clothes, hang them in the closet, and go to cook.
A few days later, Zheng Xiaoxiao went out and bought a lottery ticket. The amount was not very high. It was about 10 million, and after deducting taxes and donations, it was more than 8 million. It was too much, and I was afraid that Zheng Bin would be worried! Zheng Bin always felt that if there was a windfall, there would be a loss, and something bad would definitely happen.
He has always believed in what his grandfather told him, that when a person's ability and energy do not match the huge wealth, then a sudden windfall is definitely a disaster rather than a good thing, and the money cannot be kept.
If a person's ability and energy are strong enough, unexpected wealth will be a blessing. Even if there is no unexpected wealth, he will have a lot of wealth sooner or later.
So he thought that if this windfall brought disaster, he would rather not have it. He felt that he was just an ordinary person, and being ordinary and down-to-earth was the happiest!
Even so, Zheng Xiaoxiao didn't plan to tell Zheng Bin about the lottery now, and she would take it out when she needed the money! The reason why she did this was also influenced by her previous comfortable life, and she thought it would be more reassuring to keep some money in her hands!
Soon it was Zheng Bin's turn to rest. This time, the father and son did not go shopping. Zheng Xiaoxiao also fulfilled her previous promise and taught Zheng Bin how to trade stocks. She taught him how to read charts and how to analyze...
Zheng Bin was still serious, holding a notebook and a pen, taking notes seriously. Finally, the market opened at 9:30, and Zheng Bin stared at the data nervously.
"My daughter, my daughter, it's red, it's turning red. Haha, look, it's increased by two cents!" He stared at the stock data bought by his daughter without blinking, and when he saw it finally jumped to red, he shouted excitedly.
Zheng Bin didn't feel sleepy in the morning and was full of energy, but in the afternoon he started rubbing his eyes and yawning! He even made himself a cup of coffee that his daughter gave him, but it didn't save him, and he fell asleep and snored in a short while.
Zheng Xiaoxiao knew this would happen. When she was a child, her father would yawn like this when he corrected her homework! As a result, Zheng Xiaoxiao has been very serious in class since she was a child. If she doesn't listen carefully in class, her father may not do it when she gets home.
It was not until 3pm when the stock market closed that Zheng Bin finally woke up! He looked at the time and realized that it was over, all the stock traders had gone home! Then he looked at the profit and loss data for the day and realized that his daughter had earned two months' salary today, and he felt better.
After that, he walked up to his daughter with his head down, "Manman, I think I'd better go stir my spoon! Stock trading is really different from cooking. I'm busy with all the clanging and dinging, and I can't even fall asleep! You, there's not even a sound. I guess I can't eat this bowl of rice!"
He was in a bad mood, because he could clearly see that there was money to be made, but he just couldn't make it. But then he thought, he couldn't do it, but his daughter could make money! Thinking of this, he quickly ran to his room, took out his bank card, and handed it to Zheng Xiaoxiao.
"My daughter, you are a professional, and professional matters should be left to professionals. When you speculate for yourself, you can speculate for dad's money as well. This is all dad's savings, you can do with it. My requirements are not high. I don't want to double my money before you give birth to your baby, but a little bit is fine, as long as it is better than the bank interest."
"Dad, when it comes to stock trading, there are wins and losses. Aren't you afraid that I will lose all your savings? Or maybe you'll end up like that colleague of yours, and lose everything without even a penny left!" Zheng Xiaoxiao raised his eyebrows and asked his father.
It seems that this thing is quite attractive to him! It can make a person who follows the rules and spends every penny with a clear conscience after hard work to hand over his bank card.
"Manman, Dad believes in you! You were able to go from having tens or hundreds of yuan in pocket money to hundreds of thousands now. This is not something you can achieve just by luck. You really understand these things. Dad will feel at ease handing the money over to you!" Zheng Bin took a deep breath, as if he had made some huge decision.
When it was time to go to bed at night, Zheng Bin knocked on Zheng Xiaoxiao's door and spoke hesitantly. "Daughter, how about we take it easy? You only fry half for me?"
Zheng Xiaoxiao laughed so hard that tears came out after hearing what Zheng Bin said! Her father is so cute.
"Hey, hey, my girl, smile slowly and be careful of the baby in your belly! Don't hurt it!" Zheng Bin watched his daughter rolling on the bed holding her belly and laughing.
"Dad, didn't you say that you would feel at ease if I handed the money to you? How come you're not at ease after just half a day? Dad, don't worry! If you are really not at ease, I will cover you. If you win, it's yours, and if you lose, it's mine." Zheng Xiaoxiao patted his chest and assured Zheng Bin.
"What do you mean by yours and mine? Actually, that's not what I meant. My money is yours too! I didn't give it to you because I was thinking that I could use the money to buy things for you. It won't be very convenient for you to get pregnant, have children, and take care of them in the next few years. But after thinking about it, I can't put all my money in the stock market. How can I leave some money to buy milk powder for the child?" Zheng Bin said embarrassedly!
"Dad, don't worry, leave it to me! I'll make sure to leave enough money for buying milk powder!" There is no way I will treat this little brat badly!
"Okay, as long as you have a plan in mind." Zheng Bin was completely relieved now!
Soon the baby was three months old, and her belly was only a little bit big, and it couldn't be seen at all if she wore loose clothes.
On this day, Zheng Xiaoxiao was asked out by Xu Min and Li Jingshu again. The three unemployed idlers talked about their experiences of living off their parents at home.
"Xiaoxiao, you don't know how excessive my mother is. She asked me to go on a blind date. She also scolded me for being an old turtle in the jungle and not finding a boyfriend in four years of college. I wasted my wonderful time." Xu Min complained to Zheng Xiaoxiao about her parents' excessive behavior!
"Then tell me, have you gone on a blind date? What kind of person is the other person? Is he good-looking?" Li Jingshu is a person who knows how to grasp the key points!
"went!"
"Really? Then tell me quickly, tell me about the process, what the other party is like? Is he to your liking?" Li Jingshu became excited!
"Hey, stop talking! Although that guy is in the system, his conditions and appearance are acceptable! But he is too stingy. Do you think it is normal for someone to bring a thermos cup to a blind date?
I wanted to drink a cup of milk tea, but he stopped me, saying that milk tea is unhealthy and expensive. He also used the lid of the thermos as a cup to pour me a glass of water. In his words, he looked down on me for not having a job and didn't think about how long I had just graduated. "Xu Min had something to say when she talked about this. She had been holding it in for many days, and finally met a few familiar people, so she had to let it out.
"What's even more abominable is that her mother still thinks this man is a man who knows how to live. Do you think this is reasonable? Is our family going to be unable to make ends meet?
Or will life become unbearable after marriage? I didn’t lack money for a cup of milk tea before marriage, so why did I lack money after marriage? If I can’t even afford a cup of milk tea after marriage, is it still necessary to get married?
Just a cup of milk tea, will it make the other person go bankrupt? I didn't eat any delicacies, and besides, I didn't ask the other person to pay! Really, I'm so angry." Xu Min became more and more excited.
"Calm down, calm down. If you get sick from anger, who will take your place? It's just a cup of milk tea, right? Sister, please. Don't just one cup, sister will treat you to ten cups!" Li Jingshu waved her hand generously!
"This is not about Milk Tea, I just feel that this man is not a good human being. I feel that his behavior is the same as my dad's. No, my dad is more open-minded than him." Xu Min made the final summary!
"This is just a blind date. If you are not happy with it, just don't agree. But we are going to spend our whole lives together, so we have to keep our eyes open when choosing. Don't accept anyone who makes you feel uncomfortable, no matter how good their conditions are!" Zheng Xiaoxiao also advised her!
"I think your mom is right. How come none of us in this dormitory have ever been in a relationship in four years of college? We're not bad looking, are we? There's not a single romantic scandal in the whole dormitory. It's like a nunnery!
If only one person isn't in a relationship, then that only means that she hasn't found someone she likes. But if none of us are in a relationship, then that means it's our own problem.
Are we really too old-fashioned? Otherwise, how can we say that we don’t even have a single suitor? Do you think those men have eye problems? "Li Jingshu also felt that there must be something wrong here, but she couldn't tell what the problem was.
