Yi Feng and Wang Tie parted ways and went home.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw his parents waiting at the dinner table, all with serious faces.

"Son, where did you go to play? Why did you come back now? You're still drenched like this!" Meng Xiaoyun couldn't help scolding Yi Feng when she saw Yi Feng coming home soaked.

Yi Feng scratched his head, making his parents worry, a little embarrassed, "Mom, I went to do something with Tie Zi, and it rained heavily when I came back, so I was delayed."

Meng Xiaoyun got up and took a towel, helped him wipe his wet hair, and said with concern: "Really, let's not talk, hurry up, go take a shower first, change into dry clothes, don't catch a cold."

"Okay, Mom."

Yi Feng responded, took his clothes, went to the bathroom to take a hot shower, changed into clean clothes, and came out.

"Aqiu!"

As soon as he stepped out of the bathroom door, Yi Feng couldn't help sneezing when the cool wind blew.

"Look, you've caught a cold. Come and have dinner quickly. I'll heat up the food for you."

"Eat first, I'll make ginger soup for you to drive away the cold." Meng Xiaoyun said distressedly.

"Hey, Mom, I, I'm fine."

"Ah Qiu~" Yi Feng sneezed again as soon as he finished speaking, and his nose flowed out.

It seems that I really caught a cold.

This body is really weak!

Yi Feng couldn't help laughing at himself secretly.

It seems that after the nutrition keeps up in the future, I have to exercise regularly.

"He said it's okay, let's eat quickly, I'll make ginger soup, you are a real kid." Meng Xiaoyun shook her head, wiped her hands, and went back to the kitchen.

Sitting at the dining table, Yi Feng saw tonight's dishes, fried pork with loofah and stir-fried sweet potato leaves.

The only bit of meat was picked out and placed in front of him.

"Son, how is your study going?" Yi Jianjun took out a red plum cigarette, and was about to light it, when he saw Yi Feng beside him, he took it back.

"It's okay, English and math are not too big a problem, and other subjects need to be reviewed more intensively." Yi Feng answered honestly.

"Huh? Really? You used to be the worst in English and mathematics, did you say the wrong thing?" Yi Jianjun was taken aback.

"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely get a good grade in the college entrance examination." Yi Feng said confidently.

Yi Jianjun nodded, "It's good for you to have this confidence. You are preparing for the college entrance examination. You should go out to play less and go home early to review your homework."

"It rained heavily just now, and your mother didn't see you back. She was so worried that she didn't even feel like eating."

"If you have anything to do in the future, remember to call Uncle Gu first. He has a landline at home, so don't worry us too much."

Yi Feng smiled apologetically, "Understood Dad, I will remember."

The father and son chatted one after another, and after Yi Feng finished eating, Meng Xiaoyun came out with ginger soup.

"Come on, son, drink this bowl of ginger soup to warm your body."

Yi Feng took the ginger soup, blew on it, and a strong smell of old ginger came over his face.

He took a sip, and his whole body felt warm immediately.

My heart is also warm.

"Son, where did you go wild with Wang Tie today? Don't come back so late next time." Meng Xiaoyun said with a straight face.

The words were reproaches, but they were full of concern and worry.

Yi Feng put down the bowl and said with a smile, "I went with Tie Zi to earn some extra money."

He took out a waterproof plastic bag from his pocket, which contained 300 yuan.

One hundred bought a gift, one hundred was given to Wang Tie, one hundred was kept for his pocket money, and he planned to give the remaining 300 yuan to his mother to improve the family's food and subsidize the family.

He took out the money and handed it to Meng Xiaoyun, "Mom, you keep the 300 yuan first, and you can save it for extra food."

Meng Xiaoyun and Yi Jianjun were dumbfounded when they saw the 300 yuan in his hand.

300 yuan!

This is not a small amount, it is half a month's salary of Yi Jianjun.

"Son, you, where did you get the money? You didn't do anything bad, did you?"

"Son, although we are a little poorer, we can't do anything special!" Meng Xiaoyun asked nervously without taking the money.

How can a high school student earn so much money?

Yi Jianjun frowned and scolded, "Tell me, where did you get the money? You won't be messing around outside, right?"

Under the stern eyes of the two, Yi Feng quickly told them about the matter.

Let's just say that this is earned by repairing computers by myself, and the money is earned cleanly.

After listening to Yi Feng's words, the two finally calmed down.

Meng Xiaoyun took the money, hugged Yi Feng excitedly, and kissed him twice on the forehead.

"Ouch, my good son, it was my parents who just blamed you by mistake!"

"You are so promising, Mom, I'm so happy!"

Meng Xiaoyun was so happy that a smile bloomed on his face.

Yi Jianjun also had a look of relief on his face, "I am, my son has been smart since he was a child, haha!"

Yi Feng: "Uh..."

Why does this sound weird?

"Dad, Mom, since our son can earn money in the future, we don't need to be too frugal. We can add two taels of meat and one more dish on weekdays. You all have to eat some meat."

He saw that his parents didn't eat meat and left all the meat to him, how could this work?

If you don't eat meat all the year round, you will have problems with your body.

I'm afraid it's also because of this, my mother's long-term malnutrition will cause physical problems.

Meng Xiaoyun counted 300 yuan, without raising his head, he said: "We don't need to grow up anymore, it doesn't matter if we eat meat or not."

"You can't spend this money indiscriminately. Mom will save it for you to use in college in the future."

Yi Jianjun sighed, "Yes, son, our No. [-] rolling mill has been getting worse and worse over the past few years."

"There are rumors in the factory that for economic transformation or something...the rolling mill in the city may be shut down. At that time, more than 3000 workers in the factory may have to be laid off."

"Let's save money for the last time, and we may have to save some money in the future."

Yi Feng was startled, and suddenly remembered that in his memory, his father was indeed forced to be laid off in 01.

During the national economic transformation, the state shut down or cut down and merged many old state-owned enterprises with poor returns, so a wave of layoffs broke out.

The laid-off workers at that time fell directly to the bottom of society, struggling to survive, and many families were separated from their wives.

"Really? No way? Could it be that the higher-ups just watched us lose our jobs?" Meng Xiaoyun's expression changed.

Yi Jianjun rubbed his temples, frowned and said, "It's spread in the factory, I... I guess it's not too bad, we really have nothing to do."

"The factory can't help it."

"The factory has been operating at a loss for the past few years. I heard that the funds are all allocated by the city to pay the workers' salaries."

"The factory doesn't make any money, so I'm afraid it will be shut down sooner or later."

This news is undoubtedly a major blow to the whole family.

Meng Xiaoyun was even more preoccupied.

Her meager income from selling vegetables can only subsidize the family, and the financial burden of the family is all on Yi Jianjun's shoulders.

If Yi Jianjun was laid off, the family's economic pillar would be ruined.

For a while, the three people at the dinner table were silent, and the atmosphere was dull and depressing.

"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will be able to make money in the future, and we will definitely get through this difficult time!"

Yi Feng spoke suddenly, breaking the calm.

Meng Xiaoyun looked at Yi Feng's firm expression, with a gratified smile on his face, hugged him gently, and touched his head.

"Our son has grown up. Mom is very happy, but your first task is to pass the college entrance examination, and go to a good university."
