Chapter 854: Empathy
There is no doubt that for many children from ordinary families, reading is the only way to change their fate, especially Yang Jingya's family, although it is better than some ordinary families, but if Yang Guanjie wants to live a better life in the future, it is undoubtedly the best way to change his fate in reading.
Just now, Yang Jingya's mother talked to him about the mortgage, but Ye Chen didn't say anything else. However, when it comes to Yang Guanjie's reading, Ye Chen will definitely help.
When he was in the village, Ye Chen only finished elementary school, but he also studied Chinese medicine with his grandfather for many years and read many, many Chinese medicine books. Therefore, he is also very clear that reading books can really make a big difference in a person.
Now that Yang Guanjie wants to enroll in a public school in Shanghai, he needs to enter the household, and Ye Chen is willing to give him the money.
When Li Yangmei heard this, she naturally laughed on her face, looked at Yang Guanjie and said, "Guanjie, why don't you thank Ye Chen?"
"Thank you, Brother Ye Chen. Yang Guanjie said.
Now Yang Jingya is looking at her mother, but she doesn't know what to say. However, she knew that if this continued, her family would only owe Ye Chen more.
Maybe because of this incident, Yang Jingya's parents seemed more enthusiastic about Ye Chen, and when they made lunch, they also let Ye Chen sit in the main seat in the middle, Ye Chen just sat aside and ate lunch, these meals were very ordinary home-cooked dishes, just because Ye Chen arrived, three meat dishes were added.
However, Ye Chen still likes to eat this kind of family meal. Therefore, when eating, Ye Chen would occasionally talk about other things.
At eleven o'clock in the morning, Ye Chen and Yang Jingya's family finished lunch, Ye Chen rested on the sofa, and Yang Jingya and her mother put away the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen.
It's just that in the kitchen, there seems to be a quarrel between Yang Jingya and Li Yangmei. Ye Chen didn't know what the two were arguing about, but he already knew Yang Jingya's love-hate personality very well.
When Yang Jingya came out of the kitchen, her expression was still a little unrecoverable, she looked at Ye Chen and said, "Ye Chen, let's go back to the university town!"
Looking at Yang Jingya's expression, Ye Chen said, "Sister Jingya, you go down first, wait for me in the car, I have something to say to your parents." ”
Yang Jingya sighed, didn't say anything, and went down with the key to Ye Chen's car.
Yang Guanjie saw that Ye Chen was going to say something to his parents, so he didn't stay in the living room, went back to his room, closed the door, and now there was only Li Yangmei with an embarrassed smile on his face in the living room, and Yang Lei who was standing aside and didn't know what to say.
"Auntie, Uncle Yang, I have something to say to you. Ye Chen said.
"Ye Chen, you can say it. Li Yangmei said.
Ye Chen sat there, took a sip of tea, thought for a while and said, "Do you know why Yang Jingya always goes against you?"
"This, this, this child understands what we adults mean, and what we do is not for her good in the future. ”
There is no doubt that many parents will put this sentence on their lips in whatever they do.
Whether it is right or wrong for what you are doing, you feel that you are thinking about your children.
Actually, is that really the case? Maybe part of it, but part of it is definitely not like that.
"Then let me ask you again, what are you raising children for?" Ye Chen asked again.
"It's normal to pass on the lineage, if you don't have children, other people will laugh if you know it. Li Yangmei said.
"Auntie, that's not what I said, I'm asking what is the real purpose of raising your children?" Ye Chen asked. He knew that there was a meaning in it, but he wanted to say that it was definitely not the meaning.
Moreover, he knew that Yang Jingya's parents must have understood what he meant.
"This is for the sake of pension and old age prevention in the future. Li Yangmei said. When the other party said it, Ye Chen's expression was still like that.
He knew that what the other party said was right, and 90% of parents thought so, otherwise, what was the purpose of working so hard to raise children? It was not for the sake of providing for the elderly in the future, and when they couldn't do it in the future, they could have children who could help.
Of course, this has been passed down like this since ancient times, and Ye Chen won't talk about this.
"You're right. However, do you think you usually do the right thing?" Ye Chen asked again.
"Yes, what's wrong? Yang Lei and I worked hard to sell fruits, and we didn't work hard to make money for this sister and brother to study? Jingya, this child doesn't understand our hard work, and when she graduates and works by herself, she will know that it is hard to make money in the future." Li Yangmei said. As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes seemed to be a little red.
"Auntie, you're right. However, have you thought about Grandpa Yang Jingya?" Ye Chen asked.
At this moment, Li Yangmei didn't know how to speak out? Yang Lei shut up even more. Ye Chen said so much just now, but in the end, he talked about Yang Jingya's grandfather.
Actually, the principle is the same. Back then, Yang Jingya's grandfather and grandmother raised Yang Lei, wasn't it the same to pass on the family lineage and prevent old age?
However, now that Grandpa Yang Jingya is old, have Yang Lei, Li Yangmei and his wife done it?
It can be said that the two did not do it at all, and they did not even really think about those things. If Ye Chen was asked to talk about it, when he went back to his hometown and saw what those adopted children did to their adoptive father, he really didn't know how to describe the nature of some people?
"It can be said that what Grandpa Jingya did when he was young, you are the same now. However, what you are not as good as him is, so to speak, that you have forgotten your roots. Ye Chen said.
This time, the faces of Li Yangmei and Yang Lei were even more unsightly.
"You said that Grandpa Jingya was originally sick, even if I cured his illness. However, if an old man in his sixties or seventies is in his hometown, and there is no one else in his hometown to help take care of him, if he is sick or faints or something, who will know? Moreover, you even used his little compensation money to buy a house, but you indirectly drove him back to his hometown, such a thing, not to mention that Jingya has an opinion on you, and if it spreads in the future, other people will laugh at you. Ye Chen still looked at them lightly and said.
"Ye, Ye Chen, you listen to us, this, this is not like that. Li Yangmei didn't expect Ye Chen to be so strict now, it was obvious that from Ye Chen's words, she had a very bad impression of him and his wife.
A person can have no money, but he must have filial piety, or from the heart, which is the most basic principle of life. If you don't do it at this point, no matter how much money a person has, what's the point of living?
"Actually, you are all my elders, much older than me, and know more than me. There are some things that I really don't want to say to you. However, if you continue like this, you will regret it in the future. Although you are still middle-aged, you can still earn money to support yourself. However, if twenty years later, when you enter the age stage of Grandpa Jingya, then Yang Guanjie or his wife will also drive you back to your hometown like you did today, what do you think?" Ye Chen said.
In fact, in Ye Chen's opinion, what these two people did was because they were short-sighted, and they only thought about the present, but they didn't think about the future.
