Chapter 178

Su Yuwei took a look at Zhang Qianxiu and said, "if you don't donate part of it, leave some for your aunt."

If Zhang Qianxiu thinks about it, he can keep some money around him. If he has something urgent in the future, he can also have money to use: "Auntie, look at this, how about keeping half and donating half

But Zhuang Hongmei shook her head: "if it's Zhiwen who left it, give it all. If it's not him, take it away!"

Zhang Qianxiu was puzzled: "this is what Kong Zhiwen left you. Why do you have to donate it?"

Zhuang Hongmei was silent for a moment, choked and said: "I can't discredit their family."

"Money is a disgrace?" Zhang Qianxiu couldn't understand the logic.

Zhuang Hongmei gave a bitter smile and said, "wait a minute."

Zhuang Hongmei said that and turned to enter the room. After a while, she held a cloth containing something about 40 cm in width, one meter in length and 10 cm in thickness, with a delicate wooden box on it.

Zhuang Hongmei put down the things, took away the box, and took apart the cloth on the big thing. Inside was a well-made plaque with the four characters of "home of meritorious service".

Zhuang Hongmei said: "this plaque was sent by the leaders of the county. It was hung at the gate of my house at that time. I have always been proud of it, because it was the life of three generations of the Kong family."

Zhang Qianxiu and Su Yuwei are silent.

Zhuang Hongmei opened the wooden box again. There were a lot of sewing bags in the wooden box. One by one, they were all decorated with medals and certificates.

When Zhuang Hongmei spread out these things one by one and put them on the plaque, there were more than 20 medals in the place where half of the plaque was laid.

Zhang Qianxiu and Su Yuwei don't know about these medals, but when they see the five pointed star above, they know that every medal, without a certificate, is bought by countless sweat, blood and even life.

Zhuang Hongmei looked at the medals with tears and said: "Zhiwen didn't leave a son and a half girls. I don't know who to leave these things. But as long as I'm alive, I will give them the Kong family and keep these... Glory, as Zhiwen said, glory."

Zhang Qianxiu respected the three generations of the Kong family and admired them, but he still did not understand what it had to do with donating money: "Auntie, these are worthy of inheritance and respect, but it has nothing to do with money?"

Zhuang Hongmei was silent for a few seconds and said, "yes, everyone else has to pay agricultural tax. Considering my situation, the county has exempted all my taxes. Other people have worked hard to grow the fields for one year, but the family is not enough to eat. I grow them for one year, which is enough for two years."

"The county pays me money every year. They built this house for me, and I didn't give a cent."

"In fact, I'm not short of money. I can give some subsidies to my mother's family every year."

"But I'm the only one in my family. There are many widows and many people are jealous of me. Whenever I live better, someone will chew my tongue and say what I am like."

"If I suddenly have so much money and wear gold and silver, those people can't tell me what to say behind my back."

"Now all three of Zhiwen's grandparents and grandchildren are dead. No one dares to say that they are not. If the money is known, I'm afraid Zhiwen's reputation will be ruined."

Although Zhuang Hongmei didn't say it directly, Zhang Qianxiu probably understood that it was the rumors of those people outside that made Zhuang Hongmei dare not accept the money.

This made Zhang Qianxiu a little angry.

"These people are too much!" Su Yuwei, who is seldom angry, talks with a little anger.

Zhang Qianxiu didn't say a word. He used to think that those gossipy women in the village didn't matter, but after his sister's affair, he knew how deadly this kind of gossip is for people who care about reputation.

Zhuang Hongmei sighed and said, "I also told the leaders of H county that the leaders of H county are kind-hearted and take good care of me. The leaders of all levels are very good, but they can't stop the people in the village!"

"Besides, I don't worry about food or clothing, and I have a place to live. It's no use asking for so much money."

Zhang Qianxiu and Su Yuwei were silent.

It's really hard to deal with.

"Give it all to the county!" Zhuang Hongmei said again.

Zhang Qianxiu thought for a moment and said, "don't donate it to the county. Set up a charity foundation."

"What's that?" Zhuang Hongmei is puzzled.

Su Yuwei also doesn't quite understand that such institutions are not common in China. After all, there are not many rich people and few people donate.

Zhang Qianxiu explained: "it's just to do good things. For example, if a poor family has no money for their children to study, the money can be used to study for their children; Those lonely old people, who are not satisfied with food and clothing, buy rice and clothes for them. "

"But the foundation is not so simple. It has to have a source of funds."

"Otherwise, no matter how much money there is, it will be used up one day."

Zhuang Hongmei said: "I don't understand these, but it sounds very good. If I can do it, I have no opinion."

Su Yuwei also said: "if Auntie doesn't want it, you can do it."

"Auntie, how about that! The name of this foundation is more direct. It's Kong Family charity foundation, or Kong Family charity foundation. " Zhang Qianxiu explained: "you can't afford to be a hero. We don't make it too complicated for the foundation. I'll go through all the procedures. We can deposit the money in the bank. Now the annual interest rate of the bank is about 13% to 15%. If you deposit 100000 yuan, you can get 13% interest. Here, there is no problem with 60000 to 70000 yuan a year."

"We never move the principal. We only use the interest to do something. We will do as much as we have money."

"Auntie, when you are in the village, you recommend some people who are in difficulty to come out. The foundation provides their children with schooling, including tuition fees, school fees and miscellaneous expenses. They solve their own meals, and the money is not directly given to them. We directly connect with the school."

"When you talk to them, you say that you can only recommend, but you can't make a decision. Otherwise, some people will gain an inch. If they take advantage of it, they will also remember your feelings."

"The foundation announced to the public that it was the money you donated by your aunt, who was acting as an agent, and you served as the honorary chairman, regardless of anything. In a word, you donated all the money, and you can't manage it later. As for the specific amount of money, don't mention it, so as not to make people guess."

Zhang Qianxiu thought so much, but he just wanted to make a last name for the Kong Zhiwen family.

Zhuang Hongmei naturally has no opinion: "yes! sure! Then I won't do these things. I'll trouble you. "

The reason why Zhuang Hongmei believes Zhang Qianxiu is very simple.

The money is in Zhang Qianxiu's hands. If Zhang Qianxiu doesn't come, she won't know the existence of the money all her life. But when Zhang Qianxiu comes, it means that Zhang Qianxiu won't use the money. It's just a simple truth.

Zhang Qianxiu nodded: "there is no trouble. We can do these things simply."

After chatting for a while, Zhuang Hongmei went to cook for her.

Not to mention, Zhang Qianxiu and Su Yuwei both felt hungry and polite.

"Auntie, please." Zhang Qianxiu said politely.

"Hard work, I have nothing to entertain you." Zhuang Hongmei said, put away all those things, and then took away the box in the money bag, but the money didn't move.

Seeing that Zhuang Hongmei was busy, Zhang Qianxiu sighed: "seeing so much money, I'm not excited. Ordinary people can't do it."

"Are you praising yourself?" Su Yuwei asked with a smile.

Zhang Qianxiu was stunned, then gently laughed, shook his head and said, "I'm different. I can't take the money. If I was in aunt Zhuang's position, I might not be like him."

In fact, Zhang Qianxiu knew very well that the biggest reason why he could not pay attention to the money was that he had the confidence to earn more.

If you are just an ordinary person and earn hundreds of yuan a month, you can't refuse such a big temptation.

Just like an ordinary person, can you refuse the five million grand prize?

Su Yuwei is also a smile: "now you find yourself a job, the foundation, although the work is not difficult, but also take time to do."

"These are small things. Just pay on time." Zhang Qianxiu said.

"It's easy for you to say that it takes more than half a day for you to come from TJ county. If all the people funded by your foundation are here, I'll see what you can do then." Su Yuwei said.

Zhang Qianxiu thought about it, as if it was true. Then he said, "please help me when it's a big deal."

Just as they were talking, a voice came from outside: "sister in law, are you at home?"

When he heard that someone was coming, Zhang Qianxiu quickly zipped up the bag, and then put the bag beside him to avoid the money being seen.
