40. Chapter 40(1/3)
The result of eating too much instant noodles was that he could not eat the rich four dishes and one soup in front of him. Qi Muyang looked at the two people who were eating in grief and anger, trying to let them know what shame means.
"...Look at what I'm doing. Didn't you ask me if I'm eating it when cooking instant noodles?" However, Chu Qing not only felt guilty, but also ate it very delicious in front of him.
Qi Muyang was dissatisfied: "My dad didn't let him call you, what does it have to do with me?"
"Then if he doesn't want to call you, he won't call you. It seems that I'm not that important in your heart." Chu Qing is very good at making trouble.
Qi Muyang choked and was speechless. Qi Weichen, who had been quiet, glanced at him and said lightly: "I asked you to wait a moment, you insisted on eating."
Qi Muyang recalled it and remembered that Qi Weichen had indeed advised him, so he was speechless again.
Under the testimony of the unscrupulous parents, the child had nothing to say, and slapped on the couch in anger, and turned on the TV lazily. Qi Weichen glanced at him, but his expression did not change much.
After the meal, Chu Qing volunteered to clean up the garbage because she was short-speaking. She also ran to clean up the kitchen, and then walked out after wiping her hands.
When she came out, the sound of the TV was very small. Qi Muyang sat upright on the sofa, not as lazy as before. Chu Qing's heart moved: "What's wrong?"
"Sit." Qi Weichen, who also sat straight, said lightly.
Chu Qing was silent for a moment and deliberately sat around the farthest place from Qi Weichen. The family of three showed a standard triangle in the living room.
"Is there anything wrong?" Chu Qing subconsciously looked at Qi Muyang.
Qi Muyang smiled dryly: "It's okay, dad said he wanted to watch TV with me."
Chu Qing: "?"
"Parent-child time." Qi Weichen said lightly.
Mother and son: "..." There is no need.
However, he didn't mention anything else. Chu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, leaning on the sofa with a relaxed expression, watching the TV quietly. Qi Muyang saw her relaxed look and relaxed, and secretly tilted on the sofa while Qi Weichen was staring at the TV seriously.
At the beginning, the three of them had different thoughts and started to watch TV activities in just two minutes. However, in the fifth minute, the restricted-level screens began to be played on the TV.
It's a real limit level.
When the sound of ummy ah ah started to make on TV, the living room fell into a dead silence.
The family of three was speechless. Qi Weichen was the first to open his face. The more solemn his expression, the redder his ears were. Qi Muyang was so embarrassed that he wanted to get into the crack. In this era of information explosion, this kind of restriction level was nothing for a child of his age, but if you look at the problem with your parents, you will have a lot of things!
Chu Qing, who is not as a mother or as a wife, is much calmer than these two people. She just stared at the women who were engaged on TV and sighed: "Society has really improved. Like in my era, I could block a kiss, but now I can actually broadcast these things directly on TV."
"Well, my head hurts a little, so I'll go back to sleep first." After Qi Muyang said that, he lowered his head and ran away hurriedly.
Chu Qing looked at him in confusion, and when she was about to continue watching, the TV suddenly turned black. She suddenly became dissatisfied: "What are you doing when you turn it off?"
"The electricity bill is almost gone, so save electricity." Qi Weichen said lightly.
Chu Qing: "..."
The two looked at each other silently for a moment, and finally Qi Weichen turned on the TV silently and just switched to the animation channel. Chu Qing raised her eyebrows: "Don't you want to save power?"
"The animation channel is the most power-saving." Qi Weichen was very calm.
Chu Qing: "...I believe you."
She originally wanted to grab the remote control, but the phone suddenly rang. She could only give up and respond to the message with her head down. Qi Weichen saw her fingers constantly typing, stopped and thought from time to time, and then continued to reply, as if she was chatting with someone.
The air pressure around him lowered, and his voice was still clear and shallow: "Who are you talking to?"
"Oh, part-time job, I'm looking for me for a job that gives away flyers." Chu Qing didn't raise her head. After saying that, she realized that the other party seemed to be silent. She couldn't help but raise her head, but saw his expressionless face.
She sighed helplessly: "I know you have money, but I will be unconfident if I keep spending you."
"It's not for me."
Chu Qing: "Hmm?"
"The Internet cafe owner gave me 100,000, and 40,000 are yours," Qi Weichen looked at her calmly, "As for the prices that are similar to those in 2019, there is no problem supporting your life for more than a year."
Chu Qing: "That money is you..."
"It's yours." Qi Weichen interrupted her.
Chu Qing opened her mouth, and before she could speak, Qi Muyang rushed out of the room: "Dad, do I have 40,000?"
"Yes." Qi Weichen nodded.
Qi Muyang's eyes lit up: "Then give me the money." After that, he raised his hands devoutly.
Qi Weichen looked at him expressionlessly, and the two looked at each other for three seconds. Qi Muyang smiled and withdrew his hand: "Please pretend I didn't say..."
Only then did Qi Weichen turn his gaze to Chu Qing. With Qi Muyang's playfulness, Chu Qing laughed and her expression was much more relaxed.
Qi Weichen looked at her, pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The money left by me at the age of 41 is the joint property of the couple that I spent from my family account, so half of it belongs to you at the age of 41, but I will keep it on my behalf. If you still feel uneasy, I can transfer all the money to you and you will be responsible for your living expenses."
He had tried to keep her by using financial financially, but obviously failed, so there was no need to detain her anymore.
Chu Qing stared at him in a daze. When he heard that half of the money was left by her 41-year-old... Why did he feel confident?
"If you agree, I will transfer the money to you now," Qi Weichen finished speaking. Seeing that she did not respond, he slowly added, "If you still feel that you are not qualified to use this money, then I am not qualified. If you find a job again, remember to bring me."
Chu Qing waved his hand quickly: "No, no, no, how can you do those jobs?"
"So you agreed?" Qi Weichen asked.
Chu Qing was silent for a moment: "Then, then I will trouble you to take care of you from now on... I'd better leave the money to you and just give me the necessary living expenses."
"Responsible for expenditure can help you improve your computing power and prevent your brain from degenerating, which is a good thing." Qi Weichen said lightly.
Chu Qing was sober and Xie Bumin: "No, I really can't do it. I only know how to spend money and don't care about it."
"I will care! Mom, you forgot. When I was in elementary school, you praised me for being able to settle the score," Qi Muyang looked at Qi Weichen diligently, "Dad, give me the money, I'll take care of you."
Qi Weichen looked at Chu Qing: "That's it, I'll be decided, I'll withdraw my part-time job."
"I'm really good at managing money." Qi Muyang swore.
"Okay," Chu Qing nodded, and after saying that, she asked carefully, "Can I buy some clothes? I bought a set online before, but I didn't change it." After they arrived in 2042, there were only a box of summer clothes. Now it seemed that it was too hot and there was almost no one, and she didn't even have a pair of autumn and winter socks.
Qi Weichen nodded: "Go and have a rest, go to the mall in the evening, buy clothes first, and then go to the supermarket to purchase. I thought you didn't buy too many daily necessities before, so I need to replenish it now."
Qi Muyang raised his hand: "Mathematics is simply my only strength. Some people have said that I am a math prodigy since I was a child..."
"Okay, then buy some vegetables by the way. I'll cook for you tonight." After thinking that half of the money in Qi Weichen's card belonged to his future self, Chu Qing instantly felt that life had hope.
Although she still feels unfamiliar with her future self, it doesn’t matter. She grows up well, works hard to save money in the future, and just wait until she is 41 years old to help her past self. In this way, even if she owe her affection, she will only owe her own affection and not others.
Thinking of this, the financial pressure that had been pressing on her for a while was gone in an instant. She smiled and ran into the house: "I'll go back to the house and lie down and call me in advance when I'm going out later."
"money……"
"Yes." Qi Weichen responded, and after Chu Qing entered the house, he also returned to the next room.
The second sound of closing the door sounded, and Qi Muyang was the only one left in the living room. He opened his eyes wide in a daze, and after a while he realized that he had been completely ignored since he asked for money.
He was silent for three seconds and beat the sofa in grief and anger: "Why is it 18 or 41, when he heard me withdrawing money, he ignored me in his first reaction?!"
However, a gust of wind blew in the living room and no one answered his question.
Qi Muyang sat alone in the living room with pitiful helplessness and sulked. He decided to wait for them to set off, and he said he would not go with him or eat the food they cooked.
An hour later, Qi Weichen came out of the room and saw him tilting on the sofa to play games. After a moment of silence, he reminded: "Sit down."
Qi Muyang snorted and expressed his dissatisfaction, and had no intention of sitting down. Qi Weichen glanced at him and reached out to knock on the door next door: "You can clean up and set off."
"good!"
When Qi Muyang heard Chu Qing's voice, he deliberately turned over his body with a very loud voice. However, Qi Weichen did not look at him anymore, but waited quietly at the door.
Ten minutes later, Chu Qing changed her clothes and ran out, saying with anticipation: "Let's go."
"Yes." Qi Weichen responded and walked directly out the door, and Chu Qing also hurriedly followed.
When the two of them were about to go out, a dry cough with dissatisfaction came from behind. Chu Qing paused for a moment before looking at the sofa: "Aren't you going?"
"No!" Qi Muyang looked impatient.
Chu Qing was puzzled: "Why don't you go? You've been lying at home for a whole day, so go out for a walk."
"If you can't, don't go." Qi Muyang looked stern, waiting to be coaxed like an angry big cat.
Chu Qing raised her eyebrows, lowered her voice and asked Qi Weichen: "What's wrong with him?"
"Angry." Qi Weichen did not care about it and still spoke at his usual volume. After saying this, he saw Qi Muyang's ears move.
Chu Qing glanced at the guy who was not in a straight face on the sofa and asked in confusion: "Why are you angry?" Didn't you do it just now?
"Because I didn't give him money," Qi Weichen answered calmly.
Chu Qing suddenly realized that when she looked at Qi Muyang again, she looked like a 40-year-old boy who was still dependent on his parents, and skillfully used the method of changing topics to get rid of the money problem: "Are you really not with us?"
"No." Qi Muyang was stubborn.
When Chu Qing saw him insisting, she felt a little embarrassed. Every time she was alone with Qi Weichen, she always felt embarrassed, but she naturally had more words to take Qi Muyang with her. Now he refused to go. Could she let her go shopping with Qi Weichen?
Just as she was hesitating whether to persuade her again or just threaten her, she heard Qi Weichen silence next to her: "Do you want shoes?"
Qi Muyang paused.
"You have to try to buy it." Qi Weichen added.
With just a few words, Chu Qing saw Qi Muyang even struggling with her hair. She looked at Qi Weichen thoughtfully, and the two walked out directly. As soon as they walked out a few steps, Qi Muyang chased after her. She almost fell down because she walked too fast, and finally lay on Qi Weichen's shoulder before she stabilized.
