Road to Rebirth

Chapter 5
Gu Xiaoqing raised her head and stared at Gu Ruhai, feeling so angry.

After all, my father can't change the attributes of that steamed stuffed bun.

The atmosphere suddenly cooled down.

Gu Ruhai sat there with his head in his arms, took two hard puffs of the cigarette, and choked himself to cough violently.

Gu Xiaoying ran over in a hurry, patted Gu Ruhai on the back, and anxiously urged Gu Xiaoqing to say, "Xiaoqing, don't embarrass our dad, you just stop."

Gu Ruhai stared at his reddened eyes and said to Gu Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, it's dad's fault. Dad has no ability. He doesn't have money for the two of you to go to school. It's because dad has no ability."

He punched himself hard twice, startled Gu Xiaojie who was squatting next to Gu Xiaoqing, stood up straight, and murmured: "Dad, Dad, I won't go to school anymore, you can pay for my second sister. I don't want to go to school anymore."

The child's words hit Gu Ruhai's heart hard, and the tough man suddenly burst into tears like rain.

Gu Xiaoying looked helplessly at her father, who had never been like this before, and was anxious, but she also knew that Gu Xiaoqing had to speak up about this matter, and it was useless to say anything.

Turning her head to look at Gu Xiaoqing, "Xiaoqing, you are so cruel, seeing our father so sad, is going to school really that important?"

This is the first time that Gu Xiaoying has spoken of Gu Xiaoqing in such a strong tone. Since she was a child, Gu Xiaoying has always cared for her sister, who is five years younger than herself. She is the only one who is willing to give anything good to her sister.

But this is the first time that Gu Xiaoying feels that she can't understand what her sister is trying to do.

Do you want to force Gu Ruhai to death?

Gu Xiaoqing spoke.

But it was not what Gu Xiaoying and Gu Ruhai had imagined in their minds, but the words still smashed Gu Ruhai to death: "Sister, do you think our family can't afford the two of us? My brother and I go to school, and it's only three yuan a year." money.

Three dollars!Is this a lot?

Can't our dad afford it? "

These words hit Gu Ruhai's heart like a stone.

Yes, three dollars!

Only three dollars!

I can't get it out myself.

Gu Ruhai, who was full of sadness, raised his head and said: "But, Dad will prepare twenty yuan for your second uncle at the end of the year. Our family's income is only so much. I lent it to your second uncle, and the rest is only ten yuan, and I will give it to you." The old-age pension for grandparents is five yuan, which is the annual expenses of the family, if you go to school, the family will be in trouble."

Suddenly, Gu Ruhai felt something was wrong.

It seems that what I said is really not right.

Gu Xiaoqing laughed, laughed loudly, pointed at Gu Xiaoying and said, "Sister, you heard it. You heard it. I gave 20 yuan to my second uncle, but I have no money to teach my own children. The two of us can't add up." Three yuan, even if the tuition fees are high for middle school, high school, and university in the future, but if the money is given to the second uncle every year, then even if Xiaojie grows up, will he have money to study?
Those colleges are admitted, what do you use to study, three yuan?Dad, are Xiaojie and I your children, or is Second Uncle your son? "

These words hit Gu Ruhai's head hard like thunder.

Yes, who is your child.

What kind of father is Gu Xiaocheng who doesn't let his children go to school but has money for his second brother's family?

How could I be such an asshole.

Or my 12-year-old daughter can understand.

I'm a lot of age, and I'm still such a jerk.

If this is said, the villagers will probably die of laughter. Who would give all the money to the younger brother to support the younger brother's children regardless of their own children, how can I say this.

Gu Ruhai was embarrassed. This is not the case. Didn't his parents say that as long as Xiaoqing doesn't study, he can save money for Xiaojie's education, but according to Xiaoqing's words just now, he can afford two personal child's.

why?

Why do I feel that what my parents said is so correct.

It's because I haven't thought much about it all the time. What my parents say, I think it's for my own good and for my family's life to be prosperous, so I listen to my parents in everything.

There is also filial piety.

I have always been filial, as long as my parents say I am filial, I am always happy to find Bei, and I have no time to think about whether it is really reasonable?Really right?
Now that Xiaoqing has opened it so nakedly, everything inside seems to be wrong.

Gu Ruhai squatted down bitterly, smoking the cigarette fiercely, until the hot cigarette burned his finger, and then threw it on the ground.

With the cloth shoes with thumbs exposed, he smothered the cigarette butts on the ground.

His face flushed red with shame and burned badly.

Gu Ruhai suddenly felt uncomfortable when his niece said this and broke all this, tore all this apart.

The mask of family affection for so many years has been torn off. Whoever feels so foolish for so many years feels uncomfortable and cannot accept it all at once.

Not to mention such an honest man.

Gu Xiaoying stopped talking, yes, my family has some surplus money at the end of each year, at least those grains are paid to the public rations, and the rest are sold, and there is still 30 yuan left.

That's 30 yuan.

Xiaoqing and Xiaojie only spent three yuan, but three yuan didn't even account for the 30 yuan.

Speaking of this matter, there is no way to justify it.

Gu Xiaoying stood aside, didn't dare to say anything, sat silently on the side of the basin, and continued with the peanuts in her hand, this matter was wrong with her father, she couldn't help her father to persuade Xiaoqing, but she couldn't help her to say Xiaoqing is wrong.

So the best thing to do is to keep your mouth shut.

Li Xuemei stood up, threw down the clothes in her hand, walked up to Gu Ruhai and said, "Okay, the child is his father, Xiaoqing is right, there is no one who refuses to let his own child go to school, but wants to lend money to his younger brother's child." Going to school, that is to say, going to school, there is no such reason.

After so many years, the child's father, we have done enough, and filial piety is what we should do, but I have never heard of filial piety to the younger brother and the younger brother's children.

I won't say, it's not that I don't argue, it's that you feel uncomfortable every time and get splinted in front of your parents, but it's different now. Xiaoqing is right, the two of them are capable and promising, let's do it Parents can't be so cruel.

You think about it.

Anyway, I’m not going to give the money to the second uncle. Their family borrowed money and paid it back when she was younger. After so many years, Gu Xiaocheng is about to graduate from his studies, but I haven’t seen your brother pay back a cent. money.

Whether they have money, I dare not say, anyway, their life is not like ours, and they don’t know how to eat steamed buns with black noodles. It’s unreasonable for a younger brother who is eating black noodles to borrow money. Bar. "
