I went back to 74 and awakened the Godly Rich System

Chapter 222 Asking for Money
Hearing the old man's insincere words, Du Chuan couldn't help but laugh. These words were a bit too fake.

My home is not close to my grandfather's house. It takes at least two hours to walk there.

What's more, Du Chuan had invited grandpa and grandma to stay for a few days, and even invited Ji Nianqing, but none of them wanted to move.

So Grandpa must have come here for something, but Du Chuan didn't ask in a hurry, but said: "You haven't eaten yet, come on, there's no one at home today, I'll treat you to a good meal at the restaurant."

As he said this, he was about to help his grandfather walk outside, but his grandfather pushed him away.

"No need, just make something at home. I'm not hungry." said the old man.

Seeing this, Du Chuan thought for a moment and said, "Then we two can eat at home."

As he spoke, Du Chuan brought the old man into the yard, first poured him tea, asked him to sit for a while, then went into the house and made a phone call to ask the restaurant to send some food over.

Du Chuan is an old customer, and he is generous, so the food was delivered quickly.

After Du Chuan thanked him, he brought the food to the table and opened a bottle of wine.

"This is a thirty-year-old aged wine, Grandpa. It's only because you came here today. Otherwise, even if my dad came, I wouldn't be willing to open it." Du Chuan said.

The old man smiled brightly upon hearing this, but he said, "Just get some wine. It would be a waste to give such good wine to an old man."

Although he knew that his grandson was just saying these words to cheer him up, the old man still enjoyed it very much.

"What you said, there's no waste or not. This is your grandson's gift to you." Du Chuan said while pouring wine.

The old man looked on happily. He believed that his greatest achievement in life was that his children loved each other and were very filial.

It's not just Du's father's generation, it's the same for Du Chuan's generation as well.

Having seen too many brothers turning against each other and fathers and sons becoming enemies over the years, the old man became more and more proud.

Just ask around in the neighborhood and find out which family has such a harmonious atmosphere as the Du family?

But then, as if he had thought of something, his eyes dimmed again and he smoked his pipe even more fiercely.

Seeing this, Du Chuan said, "Grandpa, didn't I give you a lot of cigarettes? Why are you still smoking these dry cigarettes?"

Du Chuan never treated the old man in the family badly, and he would move boxes of good things to the old man's house.

Let’s put it this way, many of Du Chuan’s things now even require special supplies.

This is also a preferential treatment for Du Chuan.

However, these are all limited in quantity, and the quantity given to Du Chuan is not much, but Du Chuan has money, and it is foreign exchange.

When Du Chuan took out foreign exchange to buy these, it really opened up the supply.

Du Chuan also bought a lot, and now some rooms in his house are filled with these.

Du Chuan knew that these were all good things, so he didn't mind spending money and bought as many as he could.

So the old man has no shortage of cigarettes and alcohol, and they are all good stuff.

"Well, those cigarettes are expensive, but they have no strength at all. I'm not used to smoking them." The old man smiled again.

Firstly, he couldn't get used to smoking, and secondly, he felt it was too expensive and couldn't bear to buy it. Usually, he would just carry a pack of cigarettes with him when he went out to show off.

Of course, he was just there to keep up appearances. It was basically impossible to ask him to smoke more because he was reluctant.

Du Chuan smiled and said, "Then I'll find you some foreign cigars. You can try them and see if you are used to them."

"Don't bother. I'm fine with this one. I know you're filial, but you can't waste money like this." said the old man.

Du Chuan said: "This is not a waste of money. It is my duty to be filial to you." The old man became happier and drank a few more glasses with Du Chuan.

When they had almost finished drinking, the old man finally started talking about the reason he came here.

However, when he spoke, he was a little hesitant, as if he was embarrassed.

Seeing this, Du Chuan said, "Grandpa, is there anything you can't say to me?"

The old man sighed, "It's really...ah."

After hesitating for a while, the old man finally said, "Well, Xiaochuan, do you have any money? Lend me some."

Du Chuan was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that his grandfather came here to borrow money. Although he didn't give much money to the old man and others, Du's father gave a lot.

Moreover, they all have pensions, plus the salary of their uncle Du Qixi.

Although Du Qixi is already married, according to Du Qixi's personality, he will definitely not lack for the expenses of the old couple.

However, Du Chuan knew after just a quick thought that this amount of money was definitely not a small sum.

Otherwise, the old man would not have asked his grandson for it. If all else fails, asking Du's father to borrow is much better than asking Du Chuan.

Du Chuan immediately said: "Of course, the last thing I lack is money. How much is it?"

He was not in a hurry to ask the reason, but first gave the old man a reassurance to make him feel at ease.

The old man was indeed a little relieved after hearing this, and then said, "Fifteen thousand yuan."

After that, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will return the money to you anyway."

Although he knew that his grandson was not short of money, he didn't want to take advantage of Du Chuan.

Upon hearing this, Du Chuan immediately said in an aggrieved tone, "Grandpa, you treat me as an outsider? And you're still paying me back? If outsiders knew about this, they would know how unfilial I would be."

The old man said in a panic: "No, everyone knows that you are the most filial, but this is not a small amount."

It is indeed not a small amount. You know, we are not yet at the stage of being a millionaire with an annual income of ten thousand yuan.

Nowadays, anyone who has a few thousand yuan in savings is considered rich.

Fifteen thousand yuan is an astronomical figure for ordinary people.

"That's for others, but to me, it's just a small amount." As he said that, Du Chuan stood up, walked into the bedroom, and took out a stack of money.

Du Chuan's family always keeps some money on hand to avoid trouble when needing to use it.

It’s not much, just a few tens of thousands of dollars.

"Here's 20,000 yuan. Tell me if it's not enough." Du Chuan put the money on the table.

The old man was a little stunned when he saw so much money. Even though he knew that Du Chuan was rich, seeing so much money in front of him was still very shocking.

And he actually didn't expect that after he just said a few words, Du Chuan directly took out 20,000 yuan without any hesitation.

In his opinion, although his grandson was rich, 20,000 yuan was a large sum of money. He was a little surprised that he didn't even hesitate.

"Do you... do you want to discuss this with Qingqing?" the old man said hesitantly.

Now that Du Chuan is engaged, he is no longer alone.

Du Chuan smiled and said, "It's okay. You know Qingqing. She definitely supports me, and this is just a small amount of money."
