Siheyuan: I, He Yuzhu, am proficient in eight cuisines

Liu Guangqi was sitting at the door smoking. Now that he has children, Liu Guangqi never smokes in the house.

Because of the children, he has already quit smoking. After smoking this cigarette, he will not smoke again tonight.

Seeing Liu Haizhong walking towards him aggressively, Liu Guangqi stood up quickly and said, "Dad, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

"Um, do you want a bicycle?" Liu Haizhong couldn't stop smiling: "I plan to buy one!"

After hearing what Liu Haizhong said, Liu Guangqi's eyes lit up. When did his father become so generous that he was even willing to buy him a bicycle?

"Yes, of course..." Liu Guangqi thought without hesitation

After hearing what Liu Guangqi said, Liu Haizhong smiled even more: "I plan to get a bicycle ticket in the next few days. If you want one, we can ride one together."

Liu Guangqi took a long puff of his cigarette: "Okay..."

He thought Liu Haizhong was going to buy him one separately, but he was overthinking it. However, it would be nice to ride together, as it would save him a lot of time at work.

Since He Yuzhu and Yu Li got together, he has basically never ridden a bicycle.

"Dad, do you want a cigarette?" Liu Guangqi took out his wrinkled economy cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong took Liu Guangqi's cigarette without hesitation and said with a smile: "Bicycles are not cheap, just give me 70 yuan, just for your sake!"

"Seventy yuan?" Liu Guangqi took a breath of cold air

Fifty yuan is a huge sum of money. He has just started his life and has a hungry daughter to feed. He must have saved seventy yuan after so many years, but he doesn't spend it like this!

"Yes!" Seeing his eldest son Liu Guangqi's reluctance, Liu Haizhong immediately added: "When I get old and retire, this bicycle will be yours..."

"Seventy yuan can't buy you anything, it's just a little something!" Liu Haizhong added: "Your two younger brothers are still watching. If you pay, they won't dare to object!"

It’s not that Liu Haizhong can’t afford the hundred yuan, but he feels very distressed to pay so much money at one time, not to mention that getting a bicycle ticket requires another sum of money!

Seeing Liu Haizhong's good plan, Liu Guangqi took a long puff of the cigarette in his hand. He would have to wait until the year of the monkey and the horse to retire, at least another ten years. By then, the bicycle would be even more worn out than a second-hand one!

What's more, Liu Guangqi had his own plans. He had heard He Yuzhu mention it before, and he wanted to replace the bicycle.

Although He Yuzhu is now a big leader and Liu Guangqi has his own family, the friendship between them is still there. Wouldn't it be great to buy He Yuzhu's bicycle second-hand at a low price?

A big leader like He Yuzhu doesn't care about the money at all. He can definitely get it for less than a hundred yuan. Why should he spend the seventy yuan to inherit his father's broken car?

"Dad, I can't afford this money!" Liu Guangqi refused directly: "Look, my daughter Xiuyun is still so young, she needs money everywhere..."

After hearing what Liu Guangqi said, Liu Haizhong was shocked. He was asked to pay 70 yuan, and he was unwilling to pay less than 10,000 yuan.

This made him very angry: "Xiuyun is just a money-loser, what can she spend money on?"

"Dad, what you said..." Liu Guangqi shook his head after hearing what Liu Haizhong said: "The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh and blood. My Xiuyun is also mine, the flesh and blood of my heart!"

He used to think his daughter was useless and not that important, but after marrying Liu Juan, he slowly changed his view.

Liu Haizhong glanced at his eldest son, whom he was so proud of, and said, "How about this? You just give me 60 yuan, just for your sake!"

Sixty yuan is already a small amount. You know, if Liu Guangqi pays one cent less, he will feel more pressure!

Liu Guangqi's face was full of bitterness, and he took a long puff of his cigarette: "Dad...if you can wait another two years, then I might be able to find a way. Now I really have no money!"

"You..." Liu Haizhong's face turned pale. He originally thought that Liu Guangqi would be ecstatic if he paid the 70 yuan, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult for him to take the money.

"Fifty yuan, fifty yuan..." Anyway, no matter what, he would give this bicycle to his eldest son in the end, so he could contribute as much as he could!

"Dad..." Liu Guangqi still shook his head: "I really have no money, not even fifty yuan!"

Fifty yuan is a huge sum of money. After a year or two, when he has some extra money, wouldn't it be nice for He Yuzhu to sell the bicycle to him?

"Okay!" Liu Haizhong was really irritated by his eldest son at this moment: "Thirty dollars, is that enough?"

"This..." Liu Guangqi was extremely helpless. He wanted to refuse outright, but this would be too disrespectful to his father.

While thinking, Liu Guangqi sighed: "I'll go ask Liu Juan..."

As he said this, he quickly threw the cigarette in his hand to the ground, stomped it out, took a few deep breaths, and then opened the door.

In less than two minutes, Liu Guangqi came out of the house again: "Dad, I really have no money, you should buy it yourself, I can't afford your car..."

"You!" Liu Haizhong pointed at Liu Guangqi, extremely disappointed.

How could a person in charge of health give birth to such a cowardly son who listens to a woman in everything?

"Okay, if you don't pay, you won't have a share of this car in the future!" After saying that, Liu Haizhong shook his sleeves and turned away...

Without his son's investment, it would be really difficult to buy a bicycle. How come Xu Damao and Xu Fugui were so rich that they could afford not only a bicycle but even a watch!

He didn't have a ticket now, so he had to go to the black market to get one. According to this estimate, even if he bought a more ordinary bicycle, the price would be at least two hundred, including the ticket price...

Looking at my savings over the years, if I buy a bicycle, it will really be the end of the world.

Liu Haizhong discussed it with his wife Guo Mei, and after much thought he decided to get a second-hand car from the trust market, with the price kept within one hundred yuan!

A second-hand bicycle can be ridden just like a new one. Doesn’t Xu Damao’s bicycle look like a second-hand one? Yet he still rides it just fine. Why would one need to pursue a brand new one?

He is a man of action. Before the moonlight gets dark, he goes out to buy a second-hand bicycle...

I have to say that Liu Haizhong's luck really came this time. He only spent 70 yuan and actually got a bicycle.

Although this bicycle is old and a little rusty, it is not a big deal. You can still ride it and ride it quite fast...

Liu Haizhong was overjoyed. He rode home a little, except for some shaking in the handlebars, but he could not feel any difference from riding a bicycle with his own hands.
