Because there is tomorrow, we can survive the long night. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
If it weren't for the hope ahead, some people might not be able to survive.
Many people may not be able to understand how stressful life is, but there really exist in this world a family that does not work for a day and the whole family cannot eat, and there really exists a family where the wife is about to give birth to a child, but the husband only has a hundred yuan in his hand and needs to go to a relative's house downstairs to borrow money.
Life is far more difficult than we can imagine.
For Duan Xu, the truth of life was so cruel that he felt a sense of tension all the time, which was the huge pressure brought by the sword of Damocles hanging above his head, and it also forced him to work hard to make money and go up, so that the fate of his adoptive mother and sister would no longer develop towards a tragic ending according to the established trajectory.
In the memory of the dream, Duan Xu remembered clearly, when he died, he felt as if he had sunk in the bottomless deep sea, and the boundless darkness enveloped him, which was a feeling of loneliness and despair.
In this world, many depictions can only be solved by experience, and although the expressions of many situations are similar, there are still some differences, because without experience, they can't be said clearly after all.
For Duan Xu, the desperate experience is enough for him to be unforgettable.
Before Shao Shuai mentioned doing group performances, Duan Xu didn't take it to heart, because he felt that his mother's income from setting up a food stall would be very good, plus the money he earned from his part-time job, which was enough for living expenses.
But he never expected that things had changed, and Duan Xu had to face a reality, that is, his plan was actually not so perfect.
He can even imagine that if the family does not have an economic source within half a month, I am afraid that he will not be able to live for a year.
Therefore, Duan Xu had no choice.
After pacifying his mother, Duan Xu returned to his room, and the homework to be reviewed was actually almost already reviewed, but it was just repeated and consolidated.
Sitting at the desk, Duan Xu's thoughts couldn't be calmed for a long time.
He believes that there must be the existence of karma as mentioned by Buddhism in his previous life and in this life, and that all his opinions, shortcomings and regrets, joys and pains in this life are all meant and arranged, and what he needs to do is to take all this steadily and face it safely.
Some people say that life has a long way to go, and only by forgetting the past can we have the future.
For Duan Xu, no matter how he walks the road of life, whether he is standing or kneeling, he has to keep walking, because this is the life he chooses.
Taking a deep breath, he lifted his pen and began to write on the paper.
"Brother, have you slept?"
At this time, Liu Shiyu's voice sounded outside the door, very soft, but enough for Duan Xu to hear that it was her.
Duan Xu was stunned, put down his pen and stood up and walked to the door, and when he opened the door, he saw Liu Shiyu standing there.
"What's wrong?" Duan Xu asked strangely.
Liu Shiyu swished into Duan Xu's room, and then said in a low voice: "Be quiet, don't let our mother hear it." ā
Duan Xu rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that you girl is simply a stupid person, you got up in the middle of the night and disappeared, I really thought that our mother didn't know anything.
But since Sun Shuxia didn't say anything, he wouldn't stop it, but he was just curious about what Liu Shiyu was looking for him.
"Say, what's the matter with me?" Duan Xu closed his notebook, sat on the chair, and looked at Liu Shiyu who was sitting on the bed.
Liu Shiyu hesitated for a long time, and whispered to Duan Xu: "That's the case, I want to go to work during the winter vacation......
"Why?" Duan Xu frowned and asked, before his sister could answer, he already knew the answer, it seemed that this girl knew the family's predicament, so she planned to go out to work to help subsidize the family.
Gently rubbing it on the little girl's head, Duan Xu smiled softly: "You, don't think nonsense." ā
"There is an elder brother in the family, you don't have to worry about anything, just study hard honestly, take a good high school, grow beautiful, and let me and my mother be proud of you in the future." Duan Xu said to Liu Shiyu, his face was full of spoiling.
He is telling the truth, for him, Liu Shiyu is a treasure that he cherishes incomparably, and Duan Xu's heart is quite uncomfortable when he thinks that his sister who he raised since childhood will marry a stinky boy who doesn't know where to hide now.
The eldest brother is like a father, and the relationship between him and Liu Shiyu is definitely not something that can be explained in one or two sentences.
When Liu Shiyu heard Duan Xu's words, her eyes were slightly red: "Yes, but I also want to help you and your mother ......"
She has never been the kind of child who is ignorant, she knows from childhood to the situation in everyone that her brother has been out to do odd jobs since junior high school, and when other peers play football all day, her brother has to go to work after school.
But even so, he never lacked pocket money.
The more this is the case, the more Liu Shiyu wants to help her mother and brother share the difficulties of the family.
"Silly girl. Duan Xu laughed, he naturally understood Liu Shiyu's thoughts, and also knew that the little girl really felt sorry for herself and her mother, but some things could not be solved with enthusiasm alone.
But......
Duan Xu's heart suddenly moved, he looked at his sister's beautiful face, and suddenly thought of one thing, if his sister wanted to help the family, it was not impossible.
"Xiaoyu, are you really willing to do anything?" Duan Xu looked at Liu Shiyu, smiled meaningfully, and asked Liu Shiyu.
Liu Shiyu was stunned for a moment, blinked her eyes, and nodded her head again and again like a chicken pecking rice: "Of course, I just want to help you and our mother share some things." ā
The children of the poor have long been in charge, and she knows the situation at home too well, if she has the opportunity to help the family, Liu Shiyu will definitely have no hesitation.
Duan Xu nodded: "Okay, you go back to sleep now, and when the exam is over, my brother will give you a task, and when the time comes, as long as you do what I say, you will definitely be able to help the family." ā
Liu Shiyu blinked and looked at Duan Xu: "Brother, you didn't coax me, right?"
After all, he is about to take the high school entrance examination, and he still has basic judgment, Liu Shiyu doesn't want his brother to be happy now, so that he will no longer pester him.
Duan Xu smiled: "Don't worry, I'm definitely not coaxing you, I really have something to ask you to help with, and besides you, no one else really can't help me." ā
He is telling the truth, if the plan in his heart is implemented, except for Liu Shiyu, Duan Xu will really not be able to find other suitable candidates to help him for a while.
After all, what I want to do is actually an adventure.
