Chapter 19: Hope and Disappointment
After having a barbecue with Du Yucheng, he sent me home, didn't stay, and left.
I didn't keep him either, let him go.
Some people are destined to be passers-by in your life, and they are simply two stars on different trajectories, and even music intersect but do not coincide on the same track.
Mom was on the phone in the living room, and when she saw me coming back, her face was white, she put away her phone, turned around and walked into the kitchen.
My brother ran out of the room, saw the meat skewers in my hand and cheered, stepped forward and snatched it away, but did not enter the room, but twisted his buttocks in front of his two sisters' rooms, shook the meat skewers in his hands, and showed off: "Two ladies, meat skewers, delicious meat skewers, there is no share of yours......"
The third sister screamed, ran out, and grabbed it.
The younger brother took the meat skewers into his arms and ran into his room with a grin, and in an instant the sound of a wolf crying ghost after he had been beaten could be heard in the room.
I walked into my room to change my clothes.
The second sister looked up at me: "Why didn't you bring the little fresh meat home?"
"Broke up. "I'm.
She took it seriously, and her eyebrows turned yellow: "Gu Xiaobei, you are good at growing snacks? It's not easy for us to meet a rich person in this condition, what do you care about him to be rich, wouldn't it be good if you are willing to support you? Can love be spent as money? Can it be eaten as food? Don't be naΓ―ve, okay!"
"Nannan, I have never taught you that you can sell your dignity if you have no money, and you have to rely on others for charity if you have no money, how can you have such an idea?" I stared at her in surprise, I couldn't believe that these words came from my quietest and most obedient second sister.
She sneered, stopped looking at me, and turned back to her desk to do her homework.
"Gu Xiaonan, you can't have this kind of thinking, although we don't have money, but we are also human beings, and we can't give up our dignity as a person because of money. "I got a little angry and went up and shook her shoulder.
"You've drunk too much, take a sip of wine, go brush your teeth. She didn't raise her head, and her pen was writing her homework quickly, in an indifferent tone.
I walked out, walked back again, and said in a dry voice: "I will give you back your scholarship." β
"No, you haven't worn a new dress for the New Year in several years, go buy a new dress. Her expression remained cold, and her voice was cold.
I went out and went to the bathroom to shower.
After taking a shower, they all slept, only the light was still on in my mother's bedroom, and there was a whisper from inside, and I pushed the door in.
Mom put down her phone and looked at me in a panic.
"Is it Uncle Liang's phone?" I asked her as I sat down in my chair and brushed my wet bangs on my forehead.
"No, it's not, dead girl, don't think about it, go back to sleep. "She scolded me.
"Mom, I'm sorry for you, if you really want to go, let's go, I think, I think I can fight this family. I said.
She glanced at it, hung her head, and muttered a few words that I didn't hear clearly.
"Uncle Liang is still single, still running a restaurant, is business good?" I asked her.
She sighed and waved her hand to chase me away: "Let's go, go to sleep, I just hate your dad again, it won't help, you are all my own child, and I can't give up on you." β
My heart settled a little because of her words, and I said goodnight to her and went back to my room to sleep.
I slept very unsteadily all night, and my knees hurt so much that I couldn't lie down anymore, so I had to get up in the dark, and I planned to go to the living room to find a warm water bag to warm up.
As soon as I opened the door, I heard a soft "creak" of the door outside.
The conversation that was deliberately muffled floated into the ears.
"Packed up?"
"Hmm. β
"Let's go, then. β
"A little reluctant, Beibei she, she's only eighteen. β
"Meifeng, this is the last time I beg you, if you don't go with me again, I really have to find another one, I can't be a bachelor for a lifetime, right?"
β¦β¦
After the conversation, there was silence, then there was a final knock on the door, and there was a deathly silence all around.
I sat on the sofa, staring closely at the security door that reflected the faint light, hoping that it would suddenly open, and Chen Meifeng walked in.
However, things in the world are often like this, the greater your hope, the greater the disappointment, and when this hope rolls into a huge snowball and you are almost out of breath, the disappointment is like twice its size, and it directly slaps you to the ground.
