Chapter 6: Dreams
Everyone has a strong side, whether it is a good person or a bad person, once they make up their minds to do something, they will show a persistent mental state. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Duan Xu knows his adoptive mother very well, Sun Shuxia is the kind of person who can sacrifice everything for her children, even if she herself does not hesitate. So he cleverly tied this new job to himself and Liu Shiyu's future.
A lie doesn't necessarily need to deceive everyone, it is enough to deceive the people you want to deceive.
How much suffering can be endured, how much happiness can be deserved, in Duan Xu's opinion, as long as he survives this time, the life of the family will definitely be better.
Liu Shiyu came back quickly, although she was happy to take the money, but she didn't spend much, just spent two yuan to buy a meat bun.
"Mom, you taste it, it's delicious. Liu Shiyu said to her mother with a smile.
"Mom is not hungry, you can eat. Sun Shuxia waved her hand and looked at her daughter kindly, but her eyes were staring at the group of food stalls, obviously her mind was not here.
Duan Xu smiled when he saw this, pulled Liu Shiyu and said, "Xiaoyu, do you want to see the university?"
Liu Shiyu was stunned: "Think, what are you going to do?"
Duan Xu pulled her and walked towards the school of Normal University, and said as he walked: "Let our mother wait for us here, brother will take you around......"
As he spoke, he pulled Liu Shiyu into the school, leaving Sun Shuxia standing there alone.
"Brother, what are you going to do?" Liu Shiyu is not a fool, although the family conditions are not good, but the brother and sister are both top students in school, and this girl is the one who has won the top three in the Olympiad competition, how can she not see that Duan Xu clearly deliberately left her mother at the school gate.
Duan Xu pulled his sister to enjoy the scenery of the school in winter, and when he heard Liu Shiyu's words, he restrained the smile on his face and said seriously: "Xiaoyu, what do you think, how is our mother's body?"
Liu Shiyu was silent for a while, since she was a smart child, of course she could see that her mother's body would not last for a few years at all, and if she continued to work like now, she would collapse sooner or later.
"Brother, otherwise, I wouldn't be studying. After a while, Liu Shiyu said slowly: "I want to go to work, after you are admitted to university, our mother can rest." ”
Duan Xu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and rubbed Liu Shiyu's head: "Stinky girl, even if you don't study, you won't be a brother anymore, so it's not your turn to go out to work." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the high-rise buildings not far away, and said leisurely: "You wait, it won't be long before my brother will let you and your mother live a good life." ”
Liu Shiyu didn't speak, I don't know why, she suddenly felt that today's brother seemed to be different from usual.
No, to be exact, he's not the same as he used to be.

He said that he was taking his sister to go shopping, but in fact, in the winter, even the campus of Beijing Normal University, there was nothing to see. After pulling Liu Shiyu around, Duan Xu took his sister back to the school gate.
There, Sun Shuxia was standing there with an excited face.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Liu Shiyu looked at her mother strangely, and found that she didn't know what she was muttering in a low voice.
Duan Xu smiled slightly, he knew that his plan should have been half successful.
I have to say that the biggest impact of dreams on Duan Xu is that his current mentality is more like an adult, reading the prosperity of the world and not stagnation in his heart, many times, as long as he looks at it, Duan Xu can guess what others are thinking in their hearts.
Sun Shuxia didn't speak, just raised her head and looked at Duan Xu: "I'll do it again tomorrow." ”
Liu Shiyu was stunned: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Duan Xu understood that his adoptive mother should have seen what the way was coming.
Sun Shuxia ignored her daughter's doubts, pulled a pair of children and turned around and left, but her mind was recalling everything she had just seen.
Sitting on the bus back, Sun Shuxia didn't speak all the time, her face was calm, and sometimes her eyes were half-closed, as if she was estimating something.
Looking at her mother's abnormal appearance, Liu Shiyu pulled Duan Xu with a strange look and muttered, "Brother, what's wrong with Mom?"
Duan Xu smiled slightly and touched her head: "Silly girl, it's nothing, our mother is thinking about the future of the family." ”
"I hate it, don't touch my head!" With a look of disgust, he removed his brother's hand from his head, Liu Shiyu glared at Duan Xu: "I found out why you are like an old man now, and you always talk in a foggy manner, just like the old man in our academic affairs office." ”
"Really?"
Duan Xu touched the little stubble on his chin disappretently, revealing an inexplicable smile.
Back home, Liu Shiyu was rushed by Sun Shuxia to review her homework, but Duan Xu was stopped by Sun Shuxia.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Duan Xu didn't wait for his adoptive mother to speak, and took the initiative to ask Sun Shuxia.
Sun Shuxia hesitated, but nodded: "Xiao Xu, you say, this food stall can really work?"
In all fairness, although Duan Xu has always been very sensible since he was a child, in Sun Shuxia's eyes, he is still a child. It's just that there is no one in the family other than Duan Xu who can let her discuss. The husband's relatives have not been in contact with her since her husband's death. As for the relatives on her mother's side, Sun Shuxia knows very well that they are all ordinary people and have no ability.
Thinking about it, only Duan Xu could discuss with him.
Duan Xu naturally understood what her adoptive mother meant, she was obviously moved by her proposal, but she was still a little hesitant in her heart, after all, this was not a trivial matter, it might be just a thought for other families, and it might not be disdainful for those rich people at all, but for her own family, this is a decision that will affect the future.
As Márquez described in One Hundred Years of Solitude, life is a permanent ticket, and death is a destined end. Duan Xu is very clear about the future development, he just wants to make some changes, so that the life journey with limited time can be happier.
The adoptive mother had a hard time in Duan Xu's dream, so Duan Xu did everything she could to change her fate.
It is actually nothing for people to live materially, because everyone is a layman, and the desire and pursuit of money are just from our dreams of a better life.
Duan Xu remembers that he watched a movie in which a man who became a top comedy star step by step from a young actor said a sentence: If there is no dream in life, what is the difference between it and salted fish?
