Chapter 116: The Past
Zhou Fan is a little strange, he shouldn't have ordered takeout now, how could someone knock on the door?
I haven't told a few people about my address, so Du Ruoxue and Pei Bei know.
Zhou Fan was so inferior and unsociable before, and it was impossible for him to tell others that he was renting a low-rent house.
Who could it be?
Zhou Fan explained to the sailors, and then ran to open the door.
After opening the door, there was a middle-aged man with a short figure standing outside the door, with a mediocre appearance, belonging to the type that can no longer be found if thrown into the sea of people.
But his facial features look a little similar to Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan asked, "Hello, who are you looking for?" ”
The man froze for a moment, as if he had been struck by lightning, "Xiaofan, you, don't you know me?" ”
Looking at Zhou Fan's puzzled eyes, the man's eyes instantly turned red, and he muttered:
"It's all because my uncle is useless, I haven't been able to take care of you all these years, I don't blame you for not recognizing me as my own uncle......"
"I shouldn't have let Xiaomei do that in the first place......"
"Hey......"
The middle-aged man exhaled a long breath, as if he was about to vent all the resentment in his chest, and then took out a card from his wallet and handed it to Zhou Fan.
"Xiaofan, it doesn't matter if you don't recognize me as an uncle, my uncle is really useless. was looked down upon by his wife and children at home, and he couldn't even take care of his own nephews. I'm sorry for your parents! ”
"This is the money I have secretly accumulated over the years, and I originally wanted to wait for your grades to come out, fill in the volunteers, and then use it for you to go to college......"
"I'll leave it to you now!"
"I know Xiaofan, you have always been very sensible and obedient, I believe that you will be able to be admitted to a good university, I'm leaving!"
Zhou Fan's body stiffened a little as he heard these words. He didn't have the memory of Zhou Fan before, and he knew everything from his diary.
Thinking about it from the perspective of a child, it is natural that he can't understand the thoughts of all adults, so he simply treats everyone equally and treats them as bad people.
I didn't expect this uncle to be the opposite of what he thought, maybe over the years, this uncle didn't dare to disobey the in the family, and he was also struggling and wronged.
Zhou Fan was exquisite, and he restored the events of the past few years from just a few words.
Although he is reborn in an appendage, there seems to be a residual regret in this body, and now when he hears Zhou Fu's sincere confession, he can't help but have a sour nose.
Zhou Fan restrained himself and said slowly: "I don't need this money, I can afford the college tuition myself." ”
"Forget about the previous things, I don't blame you anymore."
Hearing this, a trace of joy flashed on Zhou Fu's haggard face, and he wanted to put his hand on Zhou Fan's shoulder, but he felt a little rash and hesitated.
Zhou Fan continued: "You don't owe me anything, I've lived well alone for so many years." ”
"You should go back and sign that agreement, I don't want to have anything to do with your family."
Only then did Zhou Fu understand what Zhou Fan meant by "don't blame them", this is not a release of the past, but a complete ignorance and forgetfulness!
The spirit that had just started collapsed instantly, and Zhou Fu's whole person withered, and he suddenly aged dozens of years.
He looked at the dark and thin nephew in front of him with a stubborn expression, just like he looked at his younger brother who stood in front of him decades ago.
"Brother, I want to go to the city to work!"
"Isn't it good to be at home, these fields are almost out of planting."
"At home, always be a farmer facing the loess with his back to the sky, relying on the sky to eat, barely making ends meet."
"But there are so many opportunities in the city, and I believe I can come across a chance to get ahead!"
"Brother, just let me go, and then I'll take your family to the city together, and we'll still live together!"
“…… Okay, since you've decided, go ahead and I'll take care of the house. ”
For more than ten years, my younger brother married a daughter-in-law in the city with his hard-working and a little ingenuity, and he realized a lot of connections.
also fulfilled his promise, took Zhou Fu and Li Mei to the city, and also helped them introduce jobs and make friends, and the life of the two families was getting better and better.
But who knows, that trip, the sudden bad news directly destroyed his younger brother's family, leaving only Zhou Fan, who was less than 10 years old.
He really wanted to bring Zhou Fan back to his home, treat him as his own, and raise him.
But Li Mei forced her to die and threatened him that if she wanted to bring Zhou Fan, a mourning star, home, she would kill Zhou Fan first and then commit suicide.
Zhou Fu didn't know why Li Mei had such a big resentment towards her younger brother's children, if it wasn't for Zhou Gui who brought their family into the city, where would they have a good life today.
How could he take over Zhou Gui's business, get bigger and bigger, and even live in such a high-end community.
Not only Li Mei, but also other relatives who had been absorbed on Zhou Gui over the years, like leeches sucking blood, turned a blind eye to such a lonely child.
Have they forgotten how Zhou Gui helped them gain a foothold in the big city little by little?
Zhou Fu's heart hurts like a knife, but he is cowardly by nature, he can't control the power of housekeeping at all, let alone send money to Zhou Fan, even secretly take him to eat, and when he goes home, he will be quarreled with by Li Mei.
It was also in these years that Zhou Fan rarely appeared in their sight, and Li Mei relaxed his vigilance, so that he had the opportunity to secretly save this amount of money for Zhou Fan to go to college.
But why did human nature become like this, dou Mien bear the hatred?
Zhou Fu couldn't figure it out.
Zhou Fan looked at this uncle standing in front of him, his face was constantly changing, and his eyes were full of sorrow, and he was a little unbearable in his heart.
He had already thought that the things of these years might not really be what Zhou Fu had thought, and he should not even know about Li Mei's phone call this morning.
But this kind of cowardice and incompetence is actually more of a connivance.
Because he was unable to prevent others from doing evil, he covered his eyes with his hands to prevent him from looking, and blocked his ears from listening.
will even look aggrieved, feeling that he is kind-hearted, but he is forced to be helpless.
It's no different from helping to do bad things.
Zhou Fan didn't enlighten this uncle's mind.
The previous Zhou Fan had already left in the indifference of these relatives, and he was taken over by him.
He had no qualifications to replace the previous Zhou Fan to forgive these relatives for the evil they had done to him.
The world is as short as a spring dream, and human affection is as thin as autumn clouds.
Zhou Fan can understand, but he will never understand.
Seeing Zhou Fan's pale face and the appearance of not saying a word, Zhou Fu sighed and turned to leave.
The card was finally placed at the door of Zhou Fan's house.
Maybe this is a kind of redemption for Zhou Fu's heart.
Seeing that there was still a password on it, Zhou Fan couldn't throw this card at the door at will, so he had to pick it up.
"Find a time to go back to their house, and all grievances will be settled."
Zhou Fan returned to the computer, and in a trance felt as if something was missing from his body, his soul was more compatible with this body, and the whole person had a sense of completeness.
