Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Bolt from the Clear

"Mom! I am back. ”

When he returned home, Su Lin screamed very proudly, but found that his mother was not at home.

"Dad, are you back?"

I looked at the bedroom and bathroom, but there was no one, it was already six o'clock today, and my parents hadn't come back yet, what was going on?

"Really, my parents didn't leave me alone and go to the world of two, right?"

Su Lin smiled secretly, and then took out a note from his school bag, which was the transcript of his mock exam. It records Surin's scores in each subject of this mock test, as well as his ranking in the class and the entire grade.

"When you usually scold me, you find a quasi-one. Today, we finally made some achievements, but none of them were at home. ”

Su Lin scratched and placed the report card on the table in the living room. Her stomach was already rumbling, but her mother didn't come back, and Surin could only turn on the TV and watch and wait.

After a while, Su Lin's mother Liu Aizhen came back, but she had a sad face, worried, and the whole person seemed to be ten years old.

"Mom! What's wrong? ”

Seeing his mother like this, Su Lin couldn't help but pinch his heart, he had never seen his mother so troubled.

"Huh! Xiaolin, Mom...... Mom was laid off. ”

Choked for a long time, Mother Ye looked at her son, tears rolling in her eyes. Liu Aizhen used to work as a processing worker in a state-owned enterprise workshop, and although her monthly salary was not much, only more than 2,000 yuan, it was enough for the family's regular expenses.

However, for several years in a row, the efficiency of state-owned enterprises has been declining. Many state-owned enterprises have begun large-scale layoffs, and this time, it is finally the turn of Ye's mother's work unit.

This afternoon, the workshop supervisor suddenly came to Liu Aizhen and directly asked her to prepare for the formalities and be laid off.

"Mom laid off?"

Su Lin's head also slammed, which was a big blow to their family. Now, my father is the only one who works in a transportation company, and with a salary of more than 3,000 a month, he can barely support the family.

And Surin still has to go to college next, where is not the place where you need to spend money? The family's savings were not much, and now they are even more constrained.

"Huh! Xiaolin, forget it, I won't tell you. This is an adult's business, and your father is still supporting you at home, so you can study hard now. As long as you can get into the second school, your parents will let you continue to study even if you borrow money. It's so late, hungry! Mom went to cook, strange, why hasn't your dad come back yet, is he working overtime? ”

After talking, Ye Mu wiped her tears, then rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen to cook, leaving Su Lin to sit alone on the sofa in the living room, full of taste.

"For so many years, it has been difficult for my parents to provide for me to go to school. And I've always been so ignorant, I don't know how to study, and those tuition fees are all earned by my parents' hard work, blood and sweat. ”

Sitting on the sofa, Su Lin's mood was a little heavy, and he was very annoyed, why was he so ignorant, he didn't know how to help his family share the financial burden, and he didn't study all day long, and he was messing around.

"No! I've grown up, and in two months I'll be eighteen years old. I am a member of this family, and I can no longer let my parents worry about this family and for me. I also want to support this family, my parents are old, they shouldn't be tired anymore, it's time to enjoy the blessings. ”

Su Lin clenched his fists, frowned slightly, and secretly swore in his heart with remorse.

Perhaps, it was very unrealistic for Su Lin to think and swear like this in the past, but now he has such a magical ability as time-out, as long as Su Lin uses it well, it is not too difficult to just help his parents share the financial burden of the family.

Bang!

The door of the house was pushed open, and Su Lin looked coldly at the door, it was his father Su Guorong who had returned. But today, Father Su came back in a very wrong state, and he was full of alcohol, and he walked crookedly into the living room.

"Dad, why are you drinking? Isn't it forbidden to drink alcohol at work? ”

Su Lin hurriedly stepped forward to support his father, it stands to reason that his father drove a long-distance transport truck in the company, and he was not allowed to drink alcohol at ordinary times, unless he didn't need to go to work the next day.

"You dead ghost, and you're drinking!"

Hearing the movement, Su Mu, who came out of the kitchen, was still holding an iron spoon in her hand, and when she saw Su Guorong like this, she was angry, and she scolded, "I told you not to drink, don't drink, you still have to go to work tomorrow, can you still go to work and drive like this?" ”

"What a class! No class. Lao Tzu didn't want to suffer from that bird's anger, he worked hard to give you a car for ten years in a broken company, and he didn't raise his salary for a few dollars, and now he said that he would be fired, such a company, Lao Tzu didn't stay......"

After drinking, Su Guorong reversed Su Lin's image of being strict with his father, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he swore again and again, scolded and danced, but his body lost his balance and he couldn't stand steadily, and with Su Lin's support, he fell on the sofa all of a sudden, and fell asleep.

"What? Lao Su, what did you say? You were also fired from the company? ”

Father Su's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, Mother Su's face was instantly dead, and she didn't care that Father Su was asleep now, she stepped forward and shook Father Su's body, and kept asking, "Old Su, you speak!" Why did you off too? Isn't the boss of the company your former comrade-in-arms? How can you say that if you don't want it, you don't want you? You speak! ”

asked several times one after another, but Su's father drank wine, and now he sleeps on the bed, and his snoring is so loud that he can't wake up no matter how he screams.

"Mom, could Dad be talking nonsense after drinking too much? You also said that the boss of the company is Dad's former comrade-in-arms in the army, and it is impossible to fire Dad's so suddenly. It must have been Dad who was drunk and talking nonsense. ”

Su Lin also had a sad face, looking at his mother's anxious appearance, he could only open his mouth to comfort his mother.

"You know what! This is the ...... I can't get past it! ”

Sadly, if it is really a husband and wife who are laid off, the Su family will have no financial resources at all, and only rely on the tens of thousands of yuan in the family's savings to provide for Su Lin to go to college. Money money, money money, money is needed everywhere, how is this good?

A heavy burden, a hopeless future, and an apology for your son! Su Guorong is still drunk to death, and all this pressure has surged into Liu Aizhen's heart. Although she usually behaves relatively strongly, how can she bear so much pressure as a woman?

"Mom! Don't worry, I'...... I'll be angry. Even if my father is laid off, and I am still there, I will support this family. ”

Su Lin stepped forward and hugged his mother, watching his mother actually sobbing in his arms, his heart was sour, it was not a taste at all.

It turns out that it is not easy for parents to do the same.

It turns out that there are so many troubles for adults.

It turns out that the mother is not as strong as she seems.

……

At this moment, Su Lin felt as if he had understood a lot, understood a lot. How ridiculous the childish ideas of the past seem to be now.

Yes, Surin has matured a little, and people have learned that to live in this world is to take responsibility. In the past, his parents were on top, and when something happened, his parents helped him deal with the aftermath. But now, this home has fallen into a state of turmoil.

It's time, Su Lin feels that his shoulders are instantly much heavier, it is a responsibility, and he also has to shoulder this family.

"Mom, you take care of Dad first! I'm going to stir-fry. ”

Patting his mother on the back, Surin took the iron spoon from his mother's hand, went to the kitchen and scooped out the soup that was boiling in the pot.

"Kobayashi ......"

The steam in the kitchen was hazy, and Su's mother looked at the back of her son's busy work, and her heart was slightly comforted. Anyway, his son seems to have really grown up. Even if Su Lin can't be admitted to college, he will honestly find a job in the future, as long as he is sensible and diligent, his family is not hopeless.

Finding a trace of comfort from Su Lin's body, and also finding the only hope, Su Mu perked up. That's right, I can't do it, my husband can't do it, and I have my son Su Lin.

Su Lin is all the hope of the couple, but unfortunately, Su Lin's grades are not good, if he really can't get into college, how can he gain a foothold in this society with a high school diploma?

Liu Aizhen knows very well that now young people are looking for jobs, and a diploma is a stepping stone, even if you have a diploma from secondary school, it is better than those who only have high Chinese.

But on the other hand, Liu Aizhen is now afraid that Su Lin will be admitted to university, especially the kind of university with three high-priced tuition fees. And there is a high probability that Surin will be admitted to this kind of university, so that the quality of the school is not very good, but he has to pay a large amount of tuition every year.

Where do college tuition fees come from? This is another headache for Liu Aizhen.

"Huh! Old Su, old Su! I hope you were really just talking nonsense just now, and if you were really laid off, how would our family live! ”

Shaking Father Su, who was lying on the sofa like a dead pig, Liu Aizhen climbed up again with a sad face.

"Huh? What is it? Is it the result of Kobayashi's last mock exam? ”

Suddenly, Su Mu saw the results that Su Lin had previously placed on the living room table.

"Why did you finish the exam this time, and this transcript came down so quickly? And in the past, this little rabbit's report card came down, and I couldn't wait to hide it, how could it be so obediently placed on the living room table today? ”

Su Mu picked up the report card and didn't take a serious look at it. It's okay not to look at it, but I was shocked when I saw it, yes, it was the score score on the report card and the class ranking of that digit and the double-digit grade ranking.;
