Chapter 79: Old Dog
"Xiao Xu, your father lost so much money, do you complain about him with your mother?" On the phone, Zhou Ling asked cautiously.
"My mom used to complain, but I don't complain about my dad. But to be honest, now I really resent him, no matter what, he shouldn't have accepted the money that his grandfather gave him! If I lose this life-saving money and my grandfather suddenly falls ill again, what will my grandfather do? In front of his grandmother, Ding Xu would not hide it, so he said his true words.
"Silly boy, don't blame your dad, he's all for you. I remember that the year before last, he came to see us and said one thing, saying that the boss of a company Zhou joked with him, saying that although the country has now reformed and opened up, the country does not talk about any classes, but in fact, there are still rich and poor classes. For example, his son can go to the United States to study in the United States after graduating from high school and get the best education in the world, but you can't. Your dad is a strong person, and after hearing this, he didn't fall asleep all night, and not long after, he started trading stocks. ”
On the other end of the phone, Zhou Ling spoke softly and slowly talked about the past, "Your father said that he will be like that in his life, but no matter what, you must get ahead and not be looked down upon." Even if he works hard, he has to make enough money to send you abroad, so that you can be some kind of returnee, and glorify your ancestors! ”
Hearing this, Ding Xu was stunned, his father's wish to let him study abroad was occasionally mentioned by his mother when the stock market was at its hottest. At that time, he just listened to it as a joke, and didn't take it to heart, but he didn't expect his father to be serious, and he didn't expect that there was such a story behind this sentence.
"Your dad used to always give us money, but we wouldn't ask for it, saying we don't need it, and you still have to go to college, so let your dad leave the money to you. Later, your father made a lot of money in the stock market, and he was so happy that he told us that he would earn one or two million in the future, and after sending you abroad, he would take us all to Huairen and buy a house for us in Huairen, and it would be convenient for everyone to live together and take care of it. He also said that he would operate on your grandfather to cure all the problems on his body, including cerebral infarction and lumbar disc herniation. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Ling fell into painful memories, and her voice was a little choked, "Your grandfather and I were so happy when we heard that he made so much money." We waited and waited, but we waited for a letter that your father sent to us after he went to Hangzhou, saying that he had made a big mistake and could not live, lest even the house be sold by the creditor, leaving you and your mother homeless. He told us to take care of our bodies and not be too sad. Only then did we know that your dad had lost so much money and was going to a dead end. ”
"And then?" Ding Xu's nose was a little sour when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked.
"When we received the letter, we all panicked, thinking that this son was gone. I urged your grandfather to call your father's mobile phone quickly, but your grandfather was useless, his hands kept shaking and shaking, and he pressed the wrong number several times. Later, the phone actually got through, and your father also spoke, and we only knew that you rescued him from the ghost gate. Xiao Xu, it's really thanks to you. Otherwise, we'll have to send whites to blacks. ”
Zhou Ling said with emotion, "Later, your grandfather called your father to Xiangtang, and after asking him about it, he had to ask him to take the 100,000 yuan, go to business, make money, and pay off his debts." Your father refused to accept it, and your grandfather was in a hurry, so he played tricks and wanted to kneel him. Your dad panicked and accepted the money, it was really not him who cheated us out of the money. ”
"Grandma, I see." Ding Xu's heart was a little dull, and he didn't know what to say.
"Really, don't blame your dad. Parents can't wait to take out their hearts and livers for their children. From the time you were younger, whether it was food or play, your dad always wanted to give you the best. In order to let you enter a prestigious school, as soon as he gritted his teeth, he smashed the iron rice bowl and went to the current private company. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Ling's voice was a little hoarse, "In the first two years, your father took so many risks to speculate in stocks, and he also wanted you to study abroad, get ahead, and be a good person." It's just that he made a big mistake and didn't succeed. Xiao Xu, think about it, he doesn't even want his life for you and your mother, just like a seriously ill old dog who runs to Hangzhou alone, and would rather die outside than die at home. He is genuinely good to you two, don't hate him. ”
"Well, I don't hate him." Listening to his grandmother's words, especially hearing the word "old dog", Ding Xu felt a sudden pain in his heart, and his throat was choked, unable to say more.
He remembers that when he was a child, he had a big yellow dog at home, and he always liked to play with it, and the big yellow dog always followed him like a nanny. Later, the big yellow dog got old, got seriously ill, and refused to move all day long, and its eyes were really like people, full of nostalgia.
Later, the big yellow dog suddenly disappeared. A few days later, the grandmother found its body by the river.
Grandma said that dogs are spiritual creatures, so it is natural to go out when they know that they are dying, find a hidden place and wait for death. I heard the old man say that this is to keep the owner from being sad, and the general wild and very psychic dog will do this.
"That's good. It's almost ten o'clock, I have to help your grandfather go to sleep, don't talk about it. After Zhou Ling said this, she put her mobile phone on the coffee table and prepared to help Ding Bo go to sleep in the bedroom.
When Ding Bo went to the street to pick up bottles today, the disc on his waist protruded a little, and he didn't walk very neatly. Zhou Ling didn't worry about his wife, she was afraid that he would fall, so she had to support him to feel at ease.
Zhou Ling habitually forgot to hang up the phone, and Ding Xu was not willing to hang up, his ears were still close to the phone, so he heard a few words of conversation between his grandfather and grandmother.
"Old woman, you're too wordy. Since Huaiguang is unproductive, what's the use of you saying such good things for him? ”
"What's wrong? Huaiguang is bitter in his heart, and he refuses to say it, I can't say a few words for him? ”
"What is he suffering for? Was he hungry? Has he ever picked up a bottle of mineral water? Hum! ”
"I said it, he was bitter in his heart!"
"Even if it's hard, he deserves it, he brought it on himself!"
"But he just earned 70,000 yuan!"
"That's not as much as Xiao Xu! He has been strong for a lifetime, and in the end, he can't even compare to Xiao Xu, so I said he is unproductive! ”
"Dead old man, I'm too lazy to tell you!"
"If you don't say it, you won't say it, who is rare?"
"Hey, old man......"
"What are you doing? Aren't you talking to me? ”
"You say...... Xiao Xu and Huai Guang have made so much money, won't we have to pick up rags in the future? Don't go to the vegetable market to pick up vegetable leaves in the afternoon? ”
"You think beautifully! No matter how much money there is, it will be left for Xiao Xu! And they still owe a lot of debt, and they will continue to pick it up tomorrow! ”
"Oh, got it. Dead old man, just talk, why are you so loud? ”
The footsteps gradually faded away, and the words of the old couple gradually blurred, but Ding Xu still listened to the faint movement in the mobile phone in a daze, and never hung up.
Unconsciously, Ding Xu fell into memories of the past.
