The conditions at ho are really a bit basic.
In fact, after Lin Fan got money, he always thought of bringing his parents to the city to live. The two elders have worked hard all their lives, it’s ti for them to enjoy a good life and not toil anymore.
But when he tentatively asked, the answer the two elders gave was that they would rather stay in the village, they are not used to living in the city.
So Lin Fan never confessed to them, although Lin Shanshan once told the two elders that Lin Fan is now quite wealthy and has bought a villa in the city.
The two elders didn’t believe it at all, simply thinking Lin Shanshan was joking.
Besides joking, what else could it be? Their son is a delivery boy, can he afford a villa?
"Little Fan, you ca back just in ti; in a few days, Brother Xiaohai is getting married. You can stay and attend," Father Lin said.
Lin Fan acknowledged, knowing who Brother Xiaohai was. It was Chen Hai from next door. His relationship with Chen Hai wasn’t good, but they were sowhat related as cousins, although this cousin relationship had already beco very distant.
Lin Fan casually said, "Is that so? That’s good."
Mrs. Lin sighed, "Your Brother Xiaohai is doing well now, for this wedding he invited the whole village. He’s been doing well in the city, built a new house for his family so ti ago, and even bought a new car. I heard the bride is also from the city."
It must be said that Mrs. Lin was a bit envious because soone like Chen Hai is quite outstanding in the village.
Because Chen Hai is doing well, his parents walk upright in the village, and Chen Hai’s father, Chen Datou, walks around the village with his hands behind his back, looking smug.
Lin Fan chuckled, "I didn’t expect it; I haven’t seen Brother Xiaohai in years, he’s really doing well. I just passed by his place, that new five-story building is his, right!"
Mrs. Lin said, "Yes, the inside and outside are decorated, intended as a wedding house. It’s said to have cost hundreds of thousands."
Lin Fan smiled faintly. Hundreds of thousands, this is really nothing to him, but indeed it is quite good for this village.
Father Lin couldn’t stand it anymore and criticized, "Look at you, woman, what does it matter to you how much people spend? No need to envy others, Little Fan, the most important thing in life is to be down-to-earth, it’s okay to be poor!"
This has always been Father Lin’s guiding principle to Lin Fan, greatly influencing him. Lin Fan wasn’t good at navigating through deceit, so after graduating from university, he was unwilling to go with the flow and was forced out of the company due to sabotage and exclusion, leading him to deliver food instead.
Now, Lin Fan was increasingly troubled, not knowing how to reveal to the two elders that he is now wealthy.
And it’s not just any wealthy, but the richest man in Yun City with a company valued at 200 billion.
"Oh, having a al?"
A voice ca from outside the door, followed by the sight of a dark-skinned uncle carrying a big bag coming in.
Lin Fan saw that it was Chen Datou, Chen Hai’s father, who had arrived.
Father Lin politely said, "Datou is here, co in and have a al."
Chen Datou waved his hand, "No need, I’ve just eaten. I ca mainly to give you an invitation, as I said, inviting the whole village requires thorough courtesy."
Saying that, Chen Datou took an invitation out of the big bag, handed it to Father Lin, and smiled, "Be sure to co!"
Father Lin smiled and said, "We will surely co."
It seed then that Chen Datou noticed Lin Fan, "Oh, Little Fan has co back, when did you get back?"
Lin Fan smiled and said, "Just got back today."
Chen Datou seed intrigued and said, "Where are you working now?"
Lin Fan said, "In Yun City."
Chen Datou said, "Yun City, Yun City is a good place. My son Xiaohai is also in Yun City, do you brothers usually keep in touch?"
Lin Fan said, "No, I didn’t even know Brother Xiaohai was in Yun City."
Chen Datou laughed and said, "He just went to Yun City recently, said he’s appreciated by his boss and is a regional manager there now."
While Chen Datou spoke, he was very proud. His son really made him proud, ntioning it wherever he went, wishing the whole world knew how successful his son was.
Next ca the soul-searching question.
"By the way, Little Fan, what work are you doing in Yun City?" Chen Datou inquired
Lin Fan chuckled and said, "I deliver food, and sotis also parcels."
What?
Chen Datou was montarily stunned, almost burst out laughing, he barely held it back, Lin Fan actually delivers food in Yun City!
Oh my, this feels so satisfying.
Lin Fan, who was one of the few college students in the locality, when he got into university, so many in the village were envious and jealous, all thought Lin Fan would definitely do well in the future.
But who could have thought, the college graduate Lin Fan ended up delivering food!
Back then, when Chen Datou’s son, Chen Hai, failed the college entrance exams and quit studying, the villagers laughed at him, and Chen Datou walked with his head down, afraid of sha.
How the tables have turned, the once gloried university graduate Lin Fan is doing so poorly!
His son, who didn’t attend university, ended up doing well, allowing Chen Datou to swagger around the village with pride!
In comparison, Chen Hai was much more successful than Lin Fan.
Chen Datou truly felt great.
"Delivering food, oh, delivering food is good. Do you earn 10,000 a month?" Chen Datou asked.
Lin Fan said, "Approximately, the more work, the more money."
Chen Datou said, "So basically no different from assembly line workers, all earn based on labor, but you have to run around, must be hard?"
Lin Fan smiled and said, "It’s okay."
Chen Datou said, "If it’s hard, why don’t you consider changing your job? After all, you’re a college graduate, doing sothing else isn’t impossible. If nothing works out, I can ask Xiaohai to recomnd you a job, shouldn’t be a problem."
Lin Fan said, "Thank you, I think being a delivery guy is pretty good, free and easy."
A trace of disdain flickered in Chen Datou’s eyes, this kid Lin Fan really is too unambitious, but this made him even happier because it ant his son Chen Hai had surpassed Lin Fan in every way, Lin Fan wasn’t even qualified to compare with his son!
"Well, do as you like." Chen Datou stood up, "I need to send more invitations, won’t chat much now. Since we’re inviting the whole village, so many invitations, I’m almost worn out. Do co for the big wedding, Little Fan, you too!"
Chen Datou announced proudly, then carried his big bag and left.
When Chen Datou was outside, he imdiately showed a face of disdain, "This Lin Fan, isn’t even qualified to hold my son’s shoes, doing so poorly, is a complete good-for-nothing!"
After Chen Datou left, Father Lin said, "Little Fan, there’s no need to bother with your Uncle Dato, he’s just like that, eager for the whole world to know how impressive his son is, boasting everywhere. Just rember one thing, stay grounded."
Lin Fan smiled and said, "I’m fine, won’t be affected by him."
Father Lin said, "That’s right, nothing about others is worth envying, living your own life well is most important."
Mrs. Lin said, "You can’t completely say there’s no envy, Xiaohai is indeed successful, I also want my children to live well."
Lin Fan smiled slightly, originally, he planned to keep a low profile this ti when he ca back, now the situation is a bit different, afraid it won’t be kept low-key...
