Chapter 45: The Past

Xi Xi and Xi Ze grew up in Bihu City, and they can be regarded as pure locals of Bihu City. Don't look at the children who were born and raised in the big city that everyone envies, but their families are not well-off at all, and their lives are not very good.

Even on some levels, Xi Xi's home is far less good than Qiao Mingjue's.

Qiao Mingjue's family is not only the impure father, even if he and his mother have a hard life, they at least have a warm home, at least they can rely on each other and give each other the strength to survive.

The situation of Xi Xi's family is completely different from Qiao Mingjue's family, it can be said that her childhood is simply gray.

I have the impression that when Xi Xi was still in elementary school, the home was very warm. Their family has always lived with their grandparents, and the family of five is crammed into a small house, but they are also happy.

But I don't know when the family has changed, and at that time, Xi Ze had not yet been born.

Xi Xi's parents somehow suddenly became addicted to gambling, and the gambling began to get worse, and even quit their jobs, counting all their financial resources on playing cards, and their lives became a mess in an instant.

At first, there was still money to earn at home, but later it was even impossible to get in and out. In addition, Xi Xi's father loves to drink, and it didn't take long for the family's savings to be wiped out.

The grandparents kicked them out of the house in a fit of rage, and raised Xi Xi to grow up in person, and the days finally passed.

But no one expected that when Xi Xi turned nineteen years old and started to work to make money to repay his grandparents, his parents came to the door again with Xi Ze in their arms.

They added a younger brother to her, but they didn't want to raise the child.

This is also where Xi Xi feels most sorry for Xi Ze. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with the child, Xi Ze doesn't understand anything, he shouldn't have been born under so much pressure, and he shouldn't have been let live such a life that is looked down upon.

At least Xi Xi still felt the love of his parents, but Xi Ze, he didn't have anything.

Xi Xi didn't study well in school, and his favorite thing on weekdays was singing. Not only did her grandparents force her to study, but also strongly encouraged her to cultivate her own interests and hobbies, and saved money to help her sign up for music, which made Xi Xi have a skill.

Xi Xi's first job was odd jobs at a 24-hour convenience supermarket, which didn't pay much, but at least the job was stable and the salary was enough to support the family.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and when Xi Ze was three years old, his grandparents passed away one after another.

Xi Xi was twenty-two years old at that time, she never disliked Xi Ze, she took Xi Ze with her very sensibly to take care of her, pulled Xi Ze to grow up day by day, and poured all her love and warmth into Xi Ze alone.

She didn't want Xi Ze to feel the indifference of this world, and she didn't want Xi Ze to suffer and be wronged like her.

Xi Ze is also very sensible, children can't remember a few people very well, and because Xi Xi has always accompanied and taken care of him, he is now only six years old and very attached to his sister, and no one can be bullied and slandered Xi Xi.

As Xi Ze grows up day by day, the financial burden on his family is getting heavier and heavier.

In order to rent this house and give Xi Ze a better life, Xi Xi had to borrow money everywhere and began to plan to find a more lucrative job.

I heard that the bar singer made a lot of money, Xi Xi came to the Blue Charm Bar without even thinking about it.

She loves to sing and hopes that her voice can be heard by more people. With her strength and talent, Xi Xi was hired by the Blue Charm Bar, and she would be given the cost of the performance after each performance, so that Xi Xi and Xi Ze's lives stabilized a little bit.

But who would have thought that Mom and Dad would come to the door again.

They kept asking Xi Xi to support them, and after learning about Xi Xi and Xi Ze's current living conditions, they began to ask Xi Xi to pay a fixed monthly living allowance to the bank card.

Forced by helplessness, and also forced by that insignificant family affection, Xi Xi agreed.

She wanted to emotionalize her parents with affection, hoping that this shattered home could be restored to the way it was before, but she didn't think that her parents had already fallen into the quagmire of gambling, and they were getting deeper and deeper.

Outside in debt, and having to pay his parents' huge gambling debts, Xi Xi's life has become unrecognizable again.

Something like today's has happened more than once or twice.

When Xi Xi lost all the money she gave to her parents, she would come to her to ask for it, and if she didn't give it, she would make a fuss, which made Xi Xi a little unable to raise her head in front of her neighbors, which completely disrupted her life.

At first, Xi Xi gave it and tried to persuade them, but it was useless.

They are like a bottomless pit with no end in sight, and all the money is wasted. But even so, instead of waking up, they kept persecuting Xi Xi and putting pressure on their daughter.

At this point in the story, Xi Xi took a deep breath and closed his eyes in some pain.

"You know what? I love singing so much, and my biggest dream is to make a lot of money through my own efforts, and how happy it would be for our family to live in a big house and enjoy high-quality living conditions......

"Xixi ......"

"It's a pity that my dream was shattered before it could be realized. ”

"That'...... Do you hate them, and if you do become the singer of your dreams after many years, will you still choose to forgive them when they come to you?"

Hearing Xi Xi's story made Lin Wenxuan's heart sour, and she couldn't say the uncomfortable feeling.

She never thought that there would be parents in the world who would treat their children like this, like Yin Xinyan's parents was enough to surprise Lin Wenxuan, Xi Xi's matter made her feel extremely heartbroken.

Xi Xi smiled helplessly with tears in his eyes.

"What can be done? After all, they are my parents, and my family will always be family. ”

Xi Xi's answer undoubtedly hit Lin Wenxuan's tears, and her eyes instantly turned red.

Xi Xi understands them so well and has never given up on this family, do her parents know this?

They did this, Xi Xi didn't blame them, how could they still bear it?

Just when the two were immersed in grief, there was a knock on the door of Xi Xi's house.

Lin Wenxuan and Xi Xi glanced at each other, got up and went over to open the door. Outside the door was not Xi Xi's parents as they imagined, but Qin Jiaxi.

"Jiaxi, what's wrong?" Lin Wenxuan frowned.

Qin Jiaxi should have understood the look in her eyes just now, otherwise he would not have left Xi Xi's house in such a timely manner. Xi Xi hadn't even seen Qin Jiaxi in person, so she naturally wouldn't say what was in her heart in front of strangers, which was why Lin Wenxuan asked Qin Jiaxi to leave.

Now that Xi Xi has finally opened his heart and poured out his heart, the atmosphere is so sad, why did Qin Jiaxi come back?

Qin Jiaxi shook the mobile phone in his hand, and said helplessly: "Your boyfriend, you don't answer the phone when he says to call you, you don't reply to the WeChat message, and I can't find anyone at your house, and the calls are all called to me to ask for someone." ”

"Ming Jue didn't quarrel with you, did he? If he said anything unpleasant, I apologize to him. ”

After listening to Qin Jiaxi's words, Lin Wenxuan hurriedly took out her mobile phone from her pocket, only to find that there were really many missed calls on it. All of them are from Qiao Mingjue, and there are even two phone calls from Yin Xinyan.

The phone was silently put in her pocket, and Lin Wenxuan was fascinated by Xi Xi's description of her story, and she didn't even look at it.

However, Qiao Mingjue was in such a hurry, shouldn't he have said anything ugly to Qin Jiaxi?

Qiao Mingjue's temper Lin Wenxuan couldn't be clearer, he had a suspicion with Qin Jiaxi, and now he couldn't find Lin Wenxuan no matter how he looked for it, so he directly called Qin Jiaxi to ask for someone, which obviously showed that Qiao Mingjue was angry.

Qin Jiaxi smiled: "You don't need to apologize, he didn't say anything nasty, he just asked me if I was with you, and let me return you to his side as soon as possible." ”

"Then what did you tell him?" Lin Wenxuan swallowed nervously.

Qiao Mingjue had clearly told her not to interact with Qin Jiaxi too often. If he knew that Lin Wenxuan was still with Qin Jiaxi as usual, and he didn't tell him while he was busy with work, wouldn't it be a big trouble!

"I told him that I hadn't contacted you in a long time, but I could call him to find you. Miss Lin, dare to ask me if you are satisfied with my answer? If you are satisfied, should you reward me with a dinner?"

The corners of Qin Jiaxi's mouth rose, and he smiled very happily.

On weekdays, he had few opportunities to threaten Lin Wenxuan, but now that he was finally caught, he had to make good use of it.

Lin Wenxuan nodded helplessly, "Okay, okay, it's okay to reward me, but at least I should be asked to call Ming Jue back and then promise you, right?"

Xi Xi stood up and walked over, and said with a smile: "Okay, thank you for today's matter." I'm fine here, you go and get busy with yours, don't let your boyfriend wait, we'll call another day. ”

Xi Xi said this, which shows that she really regards Lin Wenxuan as her good friend in her heart.

Lin Wenxuan also smiled: "Okay, then we'll call another day, I'll ask you out to go shopping!" Xi Xi, promise me, don't think about today's incident anymore, work hard for your dreams, I believe you will succeed!"

Xi Xi smiled and nodded, and said, "I'll go and ask Xi Ze to come out and say goodbye to you." ”

"Don't be so troublesome! Xi Ze shouldn't be unheard of what we say, he is so clever, he has to run out early in the morning, it is estimated that he is tired of playing and falls asleep, so let's not disturb him." You wait to go in and spend more time with him, today's events really scared him a lot. ”

"Okay, I know, then you go slowly, I won't send it. ”

After speaking, Xi Xi closed the security door, watched the two of them walk out of the building door through the door mirror, and then turned around and walked into Xi Ze's room.

Knocked lightly on the door twice, but there was no movement in the house, Xi Xi pushed the door open and walked in.

Sure enough, as Lin Wenxuan speculated, Xi Ze curled up on his small bed, holding a toy puppy in his arms, sleeping soundly.

Xi Xi shook his head helplessly, covered the quilt for Xi Ze, and did not take away the toy in his hand.

She knew that this toy was Xi Ze's baby, and it was also his only delicate little toy.

Looking at Xi Ze's sleeping face, Xi Xi couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch his skinny little face.

After doing this, Xi Xi got up and planned to cook something delicious for Xi Ze.

On the small table next to the door, there was plasticine that Xi Ze had just kneaded, which was delicate and cute, and Xi Xi couldn't help but stop.

This is what she bought for Xi Ze with the money from her first singing, and he has always treated him as a baby, sitting in the house every day and playing with all kinds of small animals. Gradually, it became very delicate, and even Xi Xi sometimes couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Today, he pinched a large villa, and two people holding hands came out next to the house.

Xi Xi can see at a glance that these two people, one is her, and the other is Xi Ze himself.

It can be seen that Xi Ze pinched it very carefully, and he even drew this painting with a crayon, with a few crooked characters written on the paper.

"My sister's home and I. ”

His nose was sore, and tears poured out uncontrollably.

"Ozawa, I'm sorry...... My sister will work hard to make your dream of living in a big house a reality......"
