Sure enough!
Ji Feng and Zhang Lei peeked over and saw Madam Zheng taking out a red packet from her pocket and stuffing it into Shen Jingyi's hands.
"A thousand?" Ji Feng said.
Ji Feng was amused, "You little rascal, are you crazy with poverty? Do you even have the guts to ask about this money? "" No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Zhang Lei's face instantly fell as he helplessly said, "Bro, you don't know how bitter big brother is!"
Ji Feng narrowed his eyes and disdainfully said, "Do you want me to spit on your face?"
This fellow actually dared to complain to him. Stinking brat … How dare this fellow be so shameless?
With his girlfriend accompanying him in school and his university cla.s.ses being so relaxed, there wasn't much work for him to do. At most, he could just read and attend cla.s.ses. Of course, if accompanying his girlfriend was considered hard work, then Zhang Lei was really tired.
Zhang Lei helplessly said, "Brother, brother is really bitter. You don't know how to describe that stingy old man of mine, but he only gave me 800 yuan a month for living expenses. I didn't even have the face to say that." Think about it, do I have to go out with Jingyi from time to time? I still have your Audi. How do you think I get eight hundred dollars a month? "
"So you planned on getting this red packet?" Ji Feng suppressed his laughter as he asked.
"Don't be so harsh, what do you mean by 'hit red packets'? Is there any difference between mine and my girlfriend's?" Zhang Lei said, "Madman, don't blame Big Brother for looking bad after eating. The key is that he's too hungry!"
"What?" Zhang Lei asked. Then, he reacted and immediately said, "Never mind, you don't need to say it. If it's from your mouth, there's definitely nothing good to say!"
"..."
Zhang Lei couldn't help but roll his eyes, and snappily said, "Crazy, I think you should just take that car of yours back. I'm almost unable to support it here."
Ji Feng smiled. "Don't worry. The money and maintenance are mine. Just open it!"
"Bro, do you seem to be relying on someone else?" Zhang Lei asked.
"You don't know what's good for you!"
Ji Feng shook his head and said, "Then, just live on your eight hundred yuan!"
Zhang Lei hurriedly moved his head over and said, "Crazy, are you going to watch your brother starve? Besides, it's fine if I'm hungry, but what about your sister-in-law? You can't just watch her starve with me, right? "
"Alright, alright, stop playing tricks on me!" Ji Feng pushed him away.
"Hey!" Zhang Lei laughed, "Madman, I'm telling you the truth. Do you have any way to earn money? At least tell me, don't make my life so difficult!"
Ji Feng could tell that Zhang Lei was speaking the truth.
Actually, Ji Feng understood Zhang Lei's situation very well. The moment Zhang Lei opened his mouth, he knew that Zhang Lei had a few yellow teeth.
However, Zhang Lei only had 800 yuan a month for his living expenses, and that was true.
In the Tong family, the education concept of the rich and poor was not improved until Zhang Lei went to university, but this improvement was also extremely limited, as could be seen from Zhang Lei's monthly living expenses.
Although eating and living in the school was fairly affordable here, how could Zhang Lei be able to sit here? He would definitely come out often.
However, this trip wasn't that easy. Just taking the subway or taking a taxi would already make you feel bad, not to mention that you would occasionally have to eat or drink alcohol outside.
However, Ji Feng had never offered to help Zhang Lei because he understood Zhang Lei's temperament too well. If he dared to give him money, he could even turn hostile.
Zhang Lei didn't have to worry about driving an Audi of a few hundred thousand yuan. He could just drive it as if it were his own. It didn't matter.
Driving Ji Feng's car was because Zhang Lei treated Ji Feng as a brother.
However, spending Ji Feng's money wasn't something that Zhang Lei could do.
As a result, from college onwards, Zhang Lei didn't live a good life.
Of course, the actual situation was definitely not as miserable as Zhang Lei had said. How could Ji Feng watch his brother suffer so miserably?
This guy was playing tricks on him just now!
Because Ji Feng was very clear that Tong Lei was giving all of her living expenses to Zhang Lei every month!
Moreover, Tong Lei's living expenses were almost double that of Zhang Lei!
If that wasn't the case, just based on Zhang Lei's few hundred yuan a month, would he still want to drink wine? You still want to drive? You still want to bring Shen Jingyi out to play?
Dream on!
However, now that Zhang Lei had actually mentioned that he wanted to make money, Ji Feng was a little surprised. It seemed that Zhang Lei's life was indeed a little tight.
"Life is tight?" Ji Feng frowned as he asked.
Zhang Lei nodded with a bitter smile, "Not really. I bought a set of clothes for Jingyi last month and played with the guys in the dorm twice. This time, the living expenses are pretty much covered."
Ji Feng nodded in agreement. That was understandable, but Ji Feng really couldn't think of any way to earn money in such a short period of time.
At this point, Zhang Lei was stopped.
"Are you treating me like an outsider just because I said that? We are brothers, what suits you will definitely suit me! " Zhang Lei said casually.
Ji Feng stared at him helplessly. This fellow was truly shameless.
"How about this, you endure for a while longer. I'll help you think about it, and if there's anything good that you can earn, I'll let you know!" Ji Feng said.
"How much did you receive for the red packets?" Ji Feng asked, not at all curious about Zhang Lei receiving the red packet.
For large families like theirs, as long as they didn't graduate from university, they would be considered children. When they went to visit some seniors during the new year, they would all receive red packets.
"The things I collected when I was young were all taken away by this old man. I only have some savings from high school, about fifty to sixty thousand!" Zhang Lei said.
With so much money, he actually came here to cry about being poor. This guy really knew how to play tricks!
Furthermore, it wasn't just a matter of money. Through Zhang Lei's matter, Ji Feng suddenly realized that he seemed to have neglected the people beside him.
On the other side, Shen Jingyi was too embarra.s.sed to accept Lady Zheng's red packet, but she couldn't refuse Lady Zheng so she could only accept it in the end.
They stayed at Zheng Yuanshan's home for a while longer before taking their leave.
Mrs. Zheng walked them to the door, then turned and went back inside.
Seeing that his wife had returned, he couldn't help but ask with a smile, "They've all left?"
"En, they are all gone!" Lady Zheng nodded. She seemed to have thought of something and added, "Old Zheng, don't you think what you said to Ji Feng today is a little …" A little inappropriate? After all, Ji Feng was the direct grandson of the Ji Clan!
Madam Zheng was a little worried. Zheng Yuanshan had told Ji Feng that the relations.h.i.+p between the two families would only get better as time goes by. She could call him 'boy' and speak to him with the att.i.tude of an elder talking to his juniors.
Even if Ji Feng was magnanimous, he wouldn't have any thoughts in his heart.
How could Zheng Yuanshan possibly get drunk so easily when he had immersed himself in the government for all these years?
The reason why he said all these was actually because of the influence of alcohol. However, he believed that Ji Feng should be able to understand the meaning behind his words.
At this moment, Ji Feng, who had already left, was also considering the matter.
"Zheng Yuanshan is expressing his att.i.tude!" Sitting in the car, Ji Feng crossed his arms and leaned against the seat as he closed his eyes to rest. In his heart, he was thinking about what Zheng Yuanshan had said at the dining table.
Zheng Yuanshan had said that the Tong Family and the Ji Family were old friends, and their relations.h.i.+p would get better and better in the future. This was undoubtedly telling him that Zheng Yuanshan wanted to have a good relations.h.i.+p with him, and he believed that their relations.h.i.+p would get better and better in the future.
This point was in line with Zheng Yuanshan's kind reminder in the study room earlier. It was Zheng Yuanshan expressing his att.i.tude.
Perhaps, from today onwards, the suspicion and alienation towards Zheng Yuanshan would cease to exist!
Ji Feng thought.
Zheng Yuanshan must have also made up his mind.
Sitting in the car, Ji Feng slightly smiled. Having one more friend was much better than having one more enemy. Moreover, this friend was the second uncle of Zhang Lei and Tong Lei, who were also second uncle's subordinates!
