Chapter 911 - 128 Silly son_3
"What’s the matter? Why aren’t we going? Come on, my son, your dad is almost starving to death!"
Urged by Da Qiangzi, Dawang came back to his senses and scratched his head embarrassingly, saying awkwardly, "Dad, that, can we go somewhere else to eat? Son, son doesn’t have that much silver, going to the Fuman Building..."
By the end, Dawang’s voice had become so weak it was barely audible.
Upon hearing his son’s reluctance to go to the Fuman Building for a meal, Da Qiangzi’s heart immediately chilled, and his face darkened as the formality of his address changed, "What’s the matter, Dawang, do you begrudge taking your dad there for a meal?"
"No, no, it’s not that, Dad. It’s just that your son really doesn’t have that much silver! If, if you really want to go, then I can borrow some from a coworker?"
As soon as he heard about borrowing silver, Da Qiangzi lost his appetite, but after a moment’s thought, clarity struck him, and he affectionately grabbed his son’s hand, saying with compassion, "Oh, my son, where is the silver you earn? Has it all been taken by your mother? Ah, my son, you’ve really suffered, working hard to earn silver that you can’t spend yourself, all handed over to that woman! Don’t worry, from now on give your silver to Dad for safekeeping. I certainly won’t let you be wronged or leave you without silver to spend!"
"It’s not that, Dad. Mother hasn’t taken anything from us." Hearing that Loudmouth had been wronged, Dawang quickly waved his hands to clarify, "It was I who gave the silver to mom, and she said that she’s saving it for us, for later when we need to get married and have children. Dad, please don’t mistakenly accuse mom, she’s been through hardships raising the two of us over these years, taking lots of suffering. Even if mom spent all that silver, your son would still be willing and happy."
Hearing his son defend Loudmouth so, Da Qiangzi felt a sourness in his heart and pursed his lips, his tone cooling again, "Didn’t you say that the new boss of the Fuman Building was the village ’Little Disaster Star’?"
"Dad, Lin Yuan is not Little Disaster Star; she’s our Lucky Star. If it weren’t for her, we’d probably still be living our past miserable life!"
