Mei Baoping really didn't dare to live in such a beautiful big house, he also felt that it was unrealistic.

The decoration alone costs 1.8 million, and the purchase of a house is not worth a million, and it is better to keep it for the elderly with so much money, and it is not possible to eat when buying such a big house, and there is a big house in the countryside.

So Mei Baoping didn't take Mei Lan's words too seriously, but nodded and said: "Yes, yes, Lan Lan is right, usually I and your mother and mother-in-law are in the city, and I will go back to the countryside on vacation, I also mean to buy a set of three bedrooms, enough to live and practical, there is no need to put on a score, there is still more place to use money at home, where is this villa where we countrymen live?" ”

"Dad, you are really old-fashioned, now there is no distinction between city and country people, only the poor and the rich, whoever can afford to buy can afford to live, a villa here is no more than two million, much cheaper than the house Lan Lan bought in Beijing." Meizhu was a little unwilling.

Of course, Mei Zhu also tried to find out what Mei Lan meant, wanting to see how thick Mei Lan's family background was.

In the past few days, I have silently calculated at home, Mei Lan will cost six or seven million to buy a house in Beijing, and I heard that it will cost 1.8 million yuan to open a company for Deng Jianwu, and the Deng family's ancestral house is almost one million for building a house with decoration and furniture, and Mei Lan has spent eight or nine million dollars.

Even if Mei Lan won a five-million jackpot, the money would not be enough to spend, and Mei Zhu was very curious about where Mei Lan's money came from, and how much it was.

"The eldest sister's tone is so big, the house does not exceed two million, what about the decoration? What about furniture? What about the cost of living in the future? If you don't think it's too expensive, buy a set for your parents when you have the ability in the future. Mei Lan scolded her.

"That's it, your mother and I can't earn 20,000 yuan a year, if it weren't for Lan Lan, you wouldn't be able to afford to study, and you still want to live in a house of 2 million? If you can have a house of 200,000 yuan to live in, let's be content, let's go and see elsewhere. Mei Baoping glared at Mei Zhu.

Deng Hongying was slightly disappointed, she still wanted to be the first to move into the villa, so that the concubines of the Mei family could take a look at her.

Mei Lan also saw the loss on Deng Hongying's face, and was just about to speak, when the mobile phone rang, it was Gu Lei who called, saying that he had arrived at the Shanshui Inn.

"You wait, I'll go right over." Melan said.

Putting down the phone, Mei Lan said to Mei Baoping and Deng Hongying: "Parents, I have to go to Jinggangshan in a bit of a hurry, you can decide the matter of the house yourself, and I will give you 100,000 yuan to buy furniture for decoration when I go back." ”

Mei Lan herself also tacitly calculated, 200,000 yuan is indeed only enough to buy a house, and it is really difficult to let the family come up with this decoration fee, because they also have to set aside Mei Ju's college expenses, Mei Lan said that she doesn't care.

Also, the reason why Mei Lan is willing to pay this money is because she has already decided that she will not come back to the Mei family in the future, the house, shares, restaurants, Mei Lan has already arranged for them, and whether they can live a good life in the future depends on their own efforts and creation.

It's just that Mei Lan didn't plan to take out these words now.

"Okay, okay, if you have something to do, Dad will send you over." Seeing that Mei Lan promised to buy furniture for 100,000 yuan for decoration, Mei Baoping happily pushed Mei Lan to go out, and pulled Deng Hongying, who was still gloomy.

Mei Lan refused Mei Baoping's send-off, stopped a taxi from the side of the road, sent her to the highway intersection, and got into a bus, when she found Gu Lei, Gu Lei was sitting alone on the lawn by the Rucui Lake.

Mei Lan found a few small stones from the lawn, stood beside Gu Lei, and said, "Your level is too low, look at me." ”

After Mei Lan finished speaking, she took a pose, took a small stone and brewed it twice, and the small stone rose and fell on the surface of the lake four or five times before sinking into the water.

"You're still not a girl, are you?" Gu Lei was a little unconvinced, and stood up to compete with Mei Lan.

"Why am I not a girl? Who rules that girls can't play water rafting? I sue you, don't look at you as a boy, but there are some physical jobs that you definitely can't do with me. ”

"No way, you say." Gu Lei put on a posture to theorize with Mei Lan.

"It's very simple, you will definitely not be able to pick me, because you have never picked it, and there are hoes, and throwing seedlings, and grinding, and ......" Mei Lan counted them one by one with her fingers.

"Stop, stop. I said Merlan, are you here to comfort me or to hit me? Gu Lei sat down again.

Merlin sat next to him, "Do you need comfort?" ”

"Of course I need to, otherwise why would I come to you?" Gu Lei muttered.

"Okay, from now on, I'm going to comfort you, Gu Lei, listen carefully, you're so pitiful, what should I do? Abandoned by his parents, he has no food to eat and no money to spend in the future, and since then he has become a poor child with no father and no mother's pain, it's okay, my sister sues you, if you have your sister's food in the future, there will definitely be your porridge to drink, be good, don't be afraid, my sister will not abandon you......" Mei Lan said while trying to squeeze out a bitter and hateful look, but unfortunately, there were no tears to cooperate.

"Okay, okay, shut up, you know that you didn't have a good word, and your parents abandoned you." Gu Lei interrupted Mei Lan.

Gu Lei, who lowered his head and was immersed in his own world, didn't see a trace of sadness flash in Mei Lan's eyes.

"You see, your father and mother have not abandoned you, life is still the same as before, what do you have to be sad about, the grievances of the elders are a thing of the past after all, maybe they also had their own hardships at that time, and you, neither a judge nor the presiding judge, you have no right to judge their rights and wrongs." The optimistic Merlin quickly squeezed out another smiling face

"Of course what you said lightly, the matter didn't fall into your head."

This stopped Merlan.

Yes, if one day their life experience is exposed, they can also say so lightly that they had a last resort at that time, forgive them.

Can you? Can you do it yourself?

Merlin shook her head.

"It depends on how to say it, if he had been really kind to me before, and he really helped me, and he did have a last resort to leave, I think, I will forgive him, and I did it." Mei Lan is talking about Xu Yan.

This time when she came back, she went to the town to inquire about Xu Yan's mother's condition, his mother did have lung cancer, went to Beijing for surgery, and now I heard that she was taking a kind of imported medicine from the United States for maintenance treatment, and the cost of this medicine is said to cost two or three hundred thousand a year, and it is impossible for Xu Yan's family to come up with this astronomical amount of money.

Mei Lan is distressed that Xu Yan is burdened with such a heavy economic and psychological debt, can there still be pure joy and happiness in this life?

"Hey, I'm talking about family affection, family affection, not love." Gu Lei patted Mei Lan on the head.

"Love and family affection have something in common, of course, there are differences, the biggest difference is that love betrayed can not turn back, but family betrayal can turn back."

Gu Lei turned around and looked at Mei Lan after hearing this, "Why do I think what you said today seems to be motivated, you said that you are so young, where do you have so many sad and sad life insights?" ”

"Cut, you think everyone is like you, the little kid in the greenhouse, I can't grow up, I came out to work at the age of fifteen to make money."

"Damn, fifteen, what am I doing at fifteen?"

"When you're fifteen years old, you're definitely worrying about which girl to pursue."

Gu Lei smiled when he heard this, "It's true." ”

Merlin gave him a "I know" look.

"Mei Lan, you are really smart sometimes, and you are like a god." Gu Lei paused and spoke.

It turned out that Gu Lei and Gu Pu's father Gu Rusong were really half-brothers, and this test result not only surprised Gu Lei, but also surprised Gu Rusong, because Gu Rusong said that his father Gu Runhe died when he was ten years old, that is, in the spring of 1978.

Back then, Gu Runhe went back to the city to visit relatives, and it didn't take long for the bad news to come, saying that the car had an accident on the way back and fell into the river.

After Gu Rusong's mother learned the news, she rushed to Shanghai with her two sons and one daughter to mourn, but she only saw an urn, and she didn't even see her husband for the last time.

At that time, Gu Lei's grandmother attributed Gu Runhe's death to her daughter-in-law Gu Rusong's mother, and not long after the funeral, she drove Gu Rusong's mother and three young children back to her hometown, saying that she would think of her son when she saw these children, and the old man couldn't be stimulated.

Gu Rusong's mother later took her three children to visit her in-laws in Shanghai during the Spring Festival, but she was given a cold reception every time, and after three years in a row, Gu Rusong's mother also gave up.

Later, the two families broke off contact.

"This is what Gu Pu's father said, what about your father?" Merlin asked.

"My dad?" Gu Lei sneered, "I met Gu Pu's grandmother, a rural woman in her sixties, when she heard that my father, who was his husband, was still alive, she couldn't speak for a long time, and after coming to her senses, she pulled her son back and forth to ask why, Gu Pu's father also wanted to ask my father why, and I also wanted to ask my father why, but unfortunately, I didn't dare." ”

Later, Gu Pu's grandmother said a past story, in 1978, most of the educated youths returned to the city, and Gu Runhe had three children because of his wife, and the time to return to the city was delayed again and again, not only reluctant to his wife and children, but also reluctant to the prosperity of Shanghai, and the parents in Shanghai were also urging again and again.

At that time, the old man in Shanghai put forward the idea of getting a divorce first, letting Gu Runhe go back to Shanghai, and then slowly considering the issue of his wife and children when Gu Runhe settled down in Shanghai, otherwise, no one would be able to go back.

But Gu Rusong's mother didn't do it, this is about to be gone, people have returned to Shanghai, can they still remember the wife and children in the small ravine? What is not a good woman in Shanghai is that they are all younger, more beautiful than her, and more educated than her, so Gu Rusong's mother resolutely disagrees with the divorce.

But no one thought that Gu Runhe would die on the way back, and the Gu family pushed Gu Runhe's death on Gu Rusong's mother, thinking that she was dragging her husband down and killing her husband, so she refused to leave her children, and promised to send them away with a sum of alimony every year.
