I have ten trillion licking dog gold

"Am I not old enough yet?"

Jiang Chen lazily tossed out a sentence and continued walking forward.

Fang Qing looked at his not-so-imposing back and followed him.

The little boy, Wei Wuji, turned around and grabbed his father's hand, gripping it tightly as if afraid of getting separated again.

The moat shimmered with golden light.

The setting sun hangs on the ancient city wall and tower.

The two sides met on the arched bridge.

The bricklayer Wei Wuji pursed his lips tightly, his lips trembling, his chest heaving with turmoil, yet he was at a loss for words.

Jiang Chen looked at the little boy, his peaceful smile bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if coated with a warm light filter.

"Tomorrow is Monday, remember to go to school on time."

Bricklayer Wei Yuntao's eyes trembled. He was not discouraged when he lost the lawsuit, he was not hesitant when he stood on the street holding up banners, and he was not panicked when he was taken away by the police. But at this moment, the eyes of this man, who was exceptionally great in his son's eyes but actually lived at the bottom of society, glistened with fragile tears.

Fortunately, the child didn't see it.

"Thank you, thank you."

All those words can be summed up in two outdated and tired phrases.

Yes.

Weekends are always too short.

If we can't get out today, who will take the boy to school?
Jiang Chen looked up, nodded, and calmly accepted the other party's sincere gratitude.

"You didn't suffer, did you?"

It's all just acting on TV.

Anyone who's been to the police station often knows that officers aren't exactly civilized when dealing with criminals.

Wei Yuntao shook his head, took a deep breath, controlled his emotions, and said succinctly, "The inspection team arrived just in time."

Jiang Chen hummed in agreement.

"Dad, it was Uncle who saved you, right?"

The little boy looked up at his father, his small hand holding the big hand tightly, unwilling to let go for even a second.

"Ok!"

Wei Yuntao nodded vigorously, "Uncle and Aunt are our great benefactors."

He went to Greenland Phase II in the morning, went to the police station at noon, and was taken away for questioning by the inspection team in the afternoon... Traveling to many places, this day felt like a dream to him.

"Uncle, you're amazing!"

The little boy looked away, his eyes filled with admiration.

Jiang Chen smiled proudly, "Didn't Uncle say that he would never lie to children?"

The little boy beamed, "Uncle is a true man!"

The three adults were amused by his sycophantic flattery.

"Don't take him out in the street anymore."

Fang Qing said.

"Definitely not."

Wei Yuntao firmly assured that he took to the streets because he had nowhere else to turn, and now that the inspection team had arrived in Shacheng, everything would definitely be explained.

His insistence was not wrong.

Justice may be delayed, but it will never be denied.

"Take him home."

Wei Yuntao held his son's hand and said, "Say goodbye to your uncles and aunties."

"Goodbye, uncle and aunt!"

The little boy waved goodbye.

"Goodbye."

As he was leaving, Wei Yuntao took one last deep look at the young man, who was no more than twenty years old. He knew that his life and the young man's life might only have one point of intersection, and then they would be completely unrelated. The young man did not need his gratitude or repayment, but that did not stop him from keeping his benefactor's image firmly in his heart.

After being led around by his father and taking a couple of steps, the little boy Wei Wuji suddenly stopped.

Wei Yuntao stopped as well.

The clever little boy turned around and looked at the uncle and aunt who had transformed his nightmare into a beautiful dream. This afternoon would surely become a lifelong source of nourishment for him, and he would never forget it.

"uncle."

He called out to Jiang Chen, and despite his young age, his eyes seemed to hold a thousand emotions.

"Ok?"

"Wishing Uncle and Aunt a lifetime of love and happiness!"

Jiang Chen chuckled.

Fang Qing stood beside her, her expression warm. What does it mean to be a match made in heaven?

That's it.

"I also wish you to realize your dream, surpass your father, and become an even greater bricklayer."

Boss Jiang is really not afraid of getting beaten up.

Ok.

The father didn't get angry at all. Instead, when his son was wished to follow in his footsteps and become a bricklayer, he laughed, a particularly relaxed and cheerful laugh.

"I will definitely work hard!"

The little boy waved his hand vigorously.

"Goodbye, aunt!"

This time, they didn't linger. The father and son turned around, walked down the Kowloon Bridge, and disappeared into the distance.

"You must always remember the kindness your uncles and aunts have shown you. Do you understand?"

Wei Yuntao walked down the street with his son in hand, giving him earnest instructions.

"Dad, is there any chance we can get our house back?"

"We can get it back."

This wasn't the first time his son had asked this question, but Wei Yuntao's answer was more resolute than ever before.

Is it because of your uncle and aunt?

"Ah."

Although he still doesn't know the identities of the young couple, Wei Yuntao understands that he is just a bricklayer and not worth the inspection team's trouble.

in fact.

He had a deep question.

Why would someone with no family or friends extend a helping hand to a nobody like him?

"Did you stay with your uncle and aunt all day?"

"Yes, my aunt and uncle took me to the amusement park and treated me to McDonald's. Dad, my aunt and uncle are such kind people!"

Good people.

Hearing his son's innocent words, Wei Yuntao suddenly understood.

Why does it have to be a reason?

There's an idiom in the textbook that says "helping others brings joy."

Perhaps, they are just kind-hearted.

"Yes. Kind people like Uncle and Aunt will surely live a long and healthy life, free from illness and disaster."

Since I am unable to repay the debt...

All I can offer are my heartfelt wishes.

"I'll never see my uncle and aunt again, right?"

The little boy suddenly asked.

Wei Yuntao paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "No way, your aunt and uncle are from Shacheng. Who knows, we might bump into each other on the street someday."

The little boy nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation again. "Dad, if I become a bricklayer, can I become a great person like Uncle?"

Wei Yuntao was taken aback and looked at his son in surprise, "An important person?"

"Yes, Uncle said he's a big shot who can get Dad out, and that he'll see Dad after we finish eating McDonald's. He's telling the truth."

Wei Yuntao gave a complicated smile, but hesitated to speak.

"...Being a big shot like my uncle is much harder than being a bricklayer."

He said slowly.

“I know, because I have never met such a good person as Uncle.”

Yes.

In this world, there is no shortage of wealthy and powerful "big shots," just as there is never a shortage of petty people who strive to survive by scheming and underhanded means.

For example, Greenland's executives can simply refuse to pay for ordinary people's houses, and even lose lawsuits against them. What kind of incredible power is that?
For ordinary people like them, there are countless important figures, but those who can maintain a kind heart are extremely rare.

Just like being a bricklayer.

Some work diligently and honestly, while others shirk their duties and try to cheat.

Even among great people, there are differences.

"Whether or not you can become a great person like your uncle, as long as you learn from your uncle, you will definitely be able to become a good person like your uncle."

"Ok!"

The boy shook his father's hand, jumped up, and told his father about the pleasant afternoon he had experienced.

"My aunt treated me to popsicles today, they were so delicious!" (End of Chapter)
