Chapter 710: Chapter 0710: Eager to Help 3_1

The young boy was so frightened upon seeing the money and grain ticket that he didn’t dare to accept, continually waving his hands, "Sir, Sir, this..."

"Take it! Child." Father Lu repeated, "I don’t know what your family situation is, or why the three of you are left on the streets in heavy snow, scavenging for rotting vegetable leaves and potato skins to eat. I figured, since we’ve met, if I can lend a hand, then it would be good karma for my child."

The young boy gratefully choked out, "Thank you, Sir, thank you, I am Xing Minshan, Sir, may I have the honor of knowing your name and where you are from? If the opportunity arises, I will definitely pay back your kindness."

After some consideration, Father Lu responded, "My family name is Lu, Lu Zhiyuan, this is my grandson, Lu Tianmao, we are from Huaibei City."

If he didn’t reveal his name and origins, judging by the boy’s demeanor, he definitely would refuse his help. Based on respect for the other party, Father Lu chose not to conceal his situation.

"Baby, Big Baby!" Xibao cried out loudly.

"Yes, yes, yes, it’s Xibao, our happy Xibao."

Xibao, completely satisfied, nodded and took a bite of the meat bun that Xing Minshan had declined.

Xing Minshan, clutching his younger brother, bowed deeply to them, "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Lu, for your life-saving favor!"

"Go home quickly, it’s very cold outside, we also need to get going."

At lunch, Father Lu mentioned the incident, and Feng Qingxue’s eyes widened instantly, "Xing Minshan?"

"Yes," Father Lu responded, then hesitated, "You know him?"

"Not acquainted." Feng Qingxue quickly shook her head in denial.

Xing Minshan became a very famous tycoon decades later, and not just any wealthy man but the leading wealthy man in the country, ranking at the top of the wealthy list. In his interviews, he’d mentioned that his family was impoverished when he was young. One winter, his parents donated all their grains and winter-stored cabbage to a few elders who had come to ask for help. As a result, he and his siblings had to search for rotten vegetable leaves and potato peels on the streets for food, barely surviving until the next month’s grain allocation. Once he took over the family’s grain supply, he never encountered that situation again.

It was widely spread on the Internet that Xing Minshan’s parents were soft-hearted and cared about their public image. There was no end to people knocking on their door, begging for help. In their inability to refuse, they would give away their grains or other supplies. Their children went hungry, never had a good meal, and didn’t own decent clothing. This resulted in a very weak bond between them and their children. After Xing Minshan became wealthy, he only bought property for his parents, hired a nanny for them, and gave them living expenses. His two younger brothers seldom appeared before their parents.

From this, it can be seen that Xing Minshan is determined and distinguishes clearly between gratitude and resentment.

Feng Qingxue hadn’t expected her son would give the bun to a stranger like Xing Minshan, although Xing Minshan didn’t eat that bun that Xibao had nibbled into an unrecognizable state.

"Xibao is such a good boy, come on, mommy will reward you with a piece of meat!" Feng Qingxue picked up a piece of well-stewed meat with her chopsticks.

She was about to put the meat straight into her son’s bowl, but her chubby son opened his mouth wide, then ah’ed, chewed and swallowed, and opened his mouth again, whining, "Mommy, more, want meat!"

"Alright, alright, mommy will feed you, here."

The harmonious atmosphere was broken with the arrival of Guo Yan, who brought along a boy about the same age as Xibao but much thinner.
