Chapter Ninety-Six: Younger Brother
Sitting down, Zhao Mu sat down quietly and quickly sank down and looked at the book in his hand, ignoring the grimace made by the beauty next to him, making the beauty who showed off to Xiang feel that he had punched the air, which was very uncomfortable.
……
When time passed, Zhao Mu also finished reading the book in his hand, Zhao Mu looked at the beautiful woman who was still sitting next to him, and saw that she was reading quietly, Zhao Mu did not disturb this beautiful scene, but softly took his own out of the study room and left the library.
……
The next time was still so plain, and within a few days, Zhao Mu received a call from his younger brother.
As soon as he saw his younger brother Zhao Yue's phone, Zhao Mu knew that he must have no money when he came, so he called himself to ask for living expenses.
Brother Zhao Yue is four or five years younger than Zhao Mu, and the two have had a good relationship since childhood. When I was a child, my family was in difficulty, my parents were away all the year round, Zhao Mu and my younger brother grew up in my grandfather's house, although my grandfather was old, he still needed to go out to earn money to support his family, and he had to support several children in the family, which was very hard.
Zhao Mu and his younger brother Zhao Yue have been like most rural children since they were children, they are very leather, jumping up and down all day like monkeys, and their younger brother has been led by Zhao Mu since he was a few years old.
When Zhao Yue was one or two years old and just weaned at the age of weaning, his parents went out, his grandfather often went out to earn money, and his grandmother needed to work in the field.
Although he was young at the time, Zhao Mu loved his younger brother very much, and he had to take him wherever he went at any time. Zhao Mu, who was young at the time, had little strength, and every time he carried it for a while, he couldn't carry it, and he had to put his younger brother down and rest for a while before he could continue to carry it.
Although the younger brother will make Zhao Mu busy every time he cries, the younger brother who doesn't cry or make trouble is Zhao Mu's pistachio. At that time, Zhao Mu was in the village primary school in the village, and every time he went to school, his younger brother would cry and refuse to leave Zhao Mu, and in the end there was no way, Zhao Mu had to carry his younger brother to the school and sit in the classroom together.
There are not many elementary school students in the village, only from kindergarten to fourth grade, each grade has a class, a class teacher, and a teacher is responsible for all the subjects of the twenty or thirty students in the class.
The students in the class are all children of the same village, they are all acquaintances of each other, and the teachers are basically former children of their own village or a township.
Therefore, at that time, the teacher who knew Zhao Mu's family situation did not say anything about Zhao Mu bringing his younger brother to school with him, and the classmates in the class were also very interested in this little thing, and they liked to tease this little guy very much, maybe the younger brother's more outgoing and active personality than himself was inseparable from the relationship during that time.
As Zhao Mu expected, his younger brother called because he had no living expenses, and asked him for living expenses.
Zhao Mu still routinely asked his younger brother about his life in school, asked his younger brother where his living expenses were spent, and warned his younger brother to study hard at school, not to divide too much heart for other things, although his younger brother and his former self are not very good because of too many temptations in life and family reasons, and now his grades are not very good, and he is just a secondary school student, but Zhao Mu is still used to warning his younger brother.
Although Zhao Mu's four or five-year-old brother is now seventeen or eighteen years old, and he is about to enter adulthood, but over the years, Zhao Mu has become accustomed to this way of caring for his younger brother. As the saying goes, "the eldest brother is the father, and the eldest sister-in-law is the mother", which is perfect for Zhao Mu and his younger brother in a rural family. And Zhao Mu does need to worry about his younger brother in many things, but his parents are out of the house when his younger brother is very young and rarely at home, so his younger brother's feelings for his parents are not as deep as those between Zhao Mu, and many things in life are also more willing to share with Zhao Mu than with his parents.
Although Zhao Mu was stern with his younger brother and asked a little verbose, when giving money, although he didn't have much money now, Zhao Mu still gave it without hesitation. Zhao Mu also came from his younger brother's age, and the age difference between the two is not very big, knowing that although the living expenses of a few hundred yuan given by the family every month are enough as living expenses, it is still not enough for some other expenses, although Zhao Mu always advises his younger brother to learn to save on these expenses, but Zhao Mu is not against the expenses that should be had.
The money in hand has not yet been hot, and it is a few hundred less all of a sudden, but Zhao Mu doesn't care about it. From the time when his younger brother was young to the present, although Zhao Mu is sometimes very strict with his younger brother, he rarely refuses his younger brother in terms of legitimate expenses. Even if he used to be in the same school with his younger brother, he was in high school, and his younger brother was in middle school, and the two of them ate together at school, although he spent more money on other things because of his grade, but Zhao Mu tried his best to save money and not treat his younger brother badly.
I chatted with my brother for a while, and asked my brother about his studies at school and some trivial things in life. When Zhao Mu hung up the phone, the two chatted for nearly half an hour unconsciously. That is, Zhao Mu can talk to a limited number of people such as his younger brother for so long, and some ordinary phone calls are basically a matter of a few words and less than a minute for Zhao Mu.
……
Thinking about his wallet, Zhao Mu had more motivation, insisted on his current accumulation, and fought for his future.
In the next few days, there was one thing that made Zhao Mu excited, that is, on the second day of his level promotion, Zhao Mu found that his height was indeed as Xiaoxing said, and he found that his height had grown a little taller, and now Zhao Mu's height has reached one meter six or eight, counting his previous height of one meter six, he has grown almost eight centimeters of height since he accepted Xiaoxing's transformation, which can basically be regarded as one centimeter longer for each level. And after asking Xiaoxing, Zhao Mu also knew that the change of his height with the increase of his level only took one night to be enough, and he didn't need to start with the imagination that it would take many days. And in this way, one meter six or eight can be determined to be the height under his current rank. And according to Xiaoxing, his height can also grow by two levels, and according to the calculation of one level of height of one centimeter, his final height should be about one meter seven.
