He wanted to ask these words for a long time, but Zuo Yucheng had a higher status in his heart than his parents, and he was afraid that his eldest brother would turn his face when he said these words. So it was delayed until this time.

Zuo Yucheng knew that Liu Ming's Internet addiction was much smaller now, and his family was more lenient with him in terms of money, and there was no need to ask for relief from him.

"Why did you suddenly talk about this, when did you start thinking about telling me this?" Zuo Yucheng asked without answering.

"I've thought about it before, but I don't dare to tell you, big brother, I know you're unhappy. Even after so many years, I still can't get over that hurdle in my heart. If I were in your position, I would be just as uneasy. ”

"Oh, then why did you want to tell me today?" Zuo Yucheng poured him a glass of water, and did not put tea leaves, Liu Ming did not drink tea.

"I went to see my grandfather on National Day, and I went over on the second day, and my third uncle and aunt went back to see him together on the afternoon of the first day. When I went on the second day, my second uncle and aunt were there, and my grandfather didn't say anything, but I think he was obviously old, and he didn't talk much in front of a few of us, but he had a lot more gray hair than before. Pathetic, really. ”

Zuo Yucheng put his elbows on his knees, crossed his hands and ten fingers, sat on the sofa with his head bowed and was silent, and did not respond.

Liu Ming knew that this matter was not something that could be easily moved, otherwise it would not have been stalemate for so many years.

Then he tried to persuade again: "Big brother, when the eldest uncle and second uncle had an accident at the same time, they needed a large sum of money, and grandpa probably felt that even if the uncle's illness threw money in it every day, in the end it was just a delay for a while, and he had to suffer a crime." So he chose to help the second uncle, if he didn't help the second uncle plug the hole at that time, the second uncle's life would be over. Grandpa, he actually felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and he didn't want to do this, but there was no way, you forgive him. ”

Liu Ming finally said what he had been holding in his heart for a long time, and he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Zuo Yucheng rubbed his face with his hands, and was silent for a while, and then told Liu Ming: "There are some things that make sense in reason, but in reason this hurdle is very difficult, do you understand? At that time, I watched my dad lying in the hospital, getting weaker and weaker day by day, I was looking for money everywhere, but your grandfather gave up, do you know the despair that I and my mother have? Now it's not a matter of forgiving or not forgiving, it's hard to face, you know?"

Liu Ming wanted to say, he knew, probably this feeling was embarrassing! But he didn't say it in the end, he only patted Zuo Yucheng on the shoulder, and then said: "Okay, I've said everything that should be said, you can decide for yourself how to do it." I'll go first, you be quiet. ”

If Liu Ming came in normal times, he would have to be here for a while, and then he would have to have a meal before leaving, so forget it this time.

After Liu Ming left, Zuo Yucheng came out to take a look, and saw that Ye Xiaochi was still coiling the jade pendant, so he took the jade pendant over and coiled it himself.

"Did you wash your hands?

"I washed it just now, it's okay, my hands don't like to sweat, it's quite dry, I don't believe you try it. ”

Ye Xiaochi refused to try, if she touched his hand, she could let him catch it. What he said is true, Zuo Yucheng is not sweaty, and his palms are always dry and refreshing.

"What did I hear Liu Ming say just now, grandpa? Isn't his grandpa your grandfather? Didn't you go over to see him on vacation?" Ye Xiaochi said as he chattered.

"I didn't go, I don't know what to do. I hated it before, but now I don't hate it, I still have a grudge. ”

Zuo Yucheng also planned to let Ye Xiaochi know about his family little by little, so he explained to her: "More than ten years ago, my father had kidney failure and wanted dialysis. Dialysis you know, it costs a lot of money, and my parents both work in factories, so they can't come up with that much money. ”

Ye Xiaochi nodded and took the initiative to pat him on the back of the head to express comfort.

"Originally, my grandfather had some money in his hand and some antiques, but my second uncle was the head of the procurement section of the state-owned store at that time, and he was too greedy and greedy for a lot of purchases. At that time, when the East Window incident happened, my grandfather was running around, and the leader of the store promised not to pursue the money if he made up the money, otherwise he would let my second uncle go to the bureau. In the end, my grandfather chose to help my second uncle and sold all the antiques, but it was not enough, so he borrowed some more. As for the money he took on my father's side, heh, it's too little, it makes no difference whether he takes it or not. I begged him, begged him to help my dad, even if I earned money to pay him back in the future, but it was useless, hehe......"

No wonder Zuo Yucheng never wanted to associate with Second Uncle Zuo, nor did he go to see his grandfather......

Ye Xiaochi took the initiative to hug his shoulder for the first time and said, "You must have had a hard time at that time, right?"

"Well, it's difficult, at that time, my mother was taking care of me in the hospital, and my third uncle and my aunt went to the park to take pictures of people during the day and set up a stall at night. All the money I earned was used to treat my dad. At that time, others thought that the stall was not a good person, but for the sake of my father, my third uncle, especially my aunt, survived. ”

"No wonder you have such a good relationship with your third uncle and aunt. So what were you doing?"

"I was in my third year of high school, and my family was like this, what kind of books did I study? It's a pity that I didn't have enough skills at that time. By the time I was able to make a lot of money, my dad was dying. ”

At this time, words were pale, so Ye Xiaochi became a listener and listened to Zuo Yucheng tell his thoughts.

"That's when I felt that money was too important. When I used to go to school, I read the poems of those literati, and I thought that to be a human being, you must have a backbone, and money is something outside the body, and life does not bring it to death. But since then I haven't thought so much. If you don't have money, your family has something to do, you have something to do, you have to use money, you use a lot of money, but you can't get it out, that's how desperate it is. So I'm making more money now. ”

Zuo Yucheng said, put his hands on Ye Xiaochi's shoulders, looked into her eyes and said.

"Of course, I'm the same as you think. But then again, how much money do you have now? Can you tell me about it?"

Ye Xiaochi looked at Zuo Yucheng with a smile, wanting to see if he dared to tell her.

"Yes, of course you can, isn't there an account book in the store? Just that blue book, that account you know, and there are other things you don't know, you can tell you about it. ”

Zuo Yucheng didn't want to hide it from Ye Xiaochi, but after he finished speaking, Ye Xiaochi was in a daze for a while and didn't speak.

"What's wrong? Silly, why don't you speak?" Zuo Yucheng stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes.

"No, I'm not stupid, I knew you were very rich, but I didn't expect you to be richer than I thought! ”

"Isn't it good to look good? When the time comes, head to head and face to face every day, of course it must be pleasing to the eye. ”
