Chapter 288: Contradictory Combination
As he turned the corner out of the mountain, Chambers glanced in the car's rearview mirror, which had been thrown with a few drops of mud.
The heavy rain overnight painted the entire dirt road out of the mountain with mud, and driving on the road was like sliding, and he had to reduce his speed, otherwise the car shook violently, not only Su Xin who was lying in the back seat, but he was afraid that he would have to vomit it himself.
In the rearview mirror, half of his car was covered with mud.
The first thing I did when I went back was to pay for the car wash.
"Trouble!" Chambers frowned and stopped at the intersection of the traffic lights and pulled his cigarette out of his pocket.
Then came the sound of Suo Suo from the back seat.
Su Xin stretched his waist and opened his eyes, stretched his waist for a long time, under the newly exposed morning sun, it looked quiet and beautiful, it was 6 o'clock in the morning, and he was about to send Su Xin home.
"Awake?" Chambers smiled and put the cigarette back in his pocket. "It's not comfortable to sleep, there are still potholes along the way, you have to react to someone, and the road can be repaired well."
Su Xin rubbed his eyes: "It's okay." Her voice was slightly hoarse.
Last night, after she was tired of crying, she lay down on the bed for a night, and Qian Bo and Su Jiamu chatted all night. Maybe he was really tired, Su Xin didn't turn over from beginning to end, and slept in one position until dawn, until the sky was about to break, and Qian Bo carried Su Xin back to the car.
The thin quilt on her body was taken out by Su Jiamu and covered it.
"Your family hasn't moved, is it?"
"Hmm." Su Xin nodded, as if his consciousness had not yet woken up.
"Why don't you sleep anymore, are you still sleepy?"
"No need." Su Xin lifted the quilt on his body and rubbed his face vigorously.
After the car drove onto the road, it was much smoother, and under the morning glow that gradually sprinkled over the world, the busy people were like a pair of wings printed behind them. You can't fly into the carefree sky, but when you run, you can feel the freedom of lightness.
"Chamber."
"Huh?"
"Say, am I ...... Very excessive? ”
Qian Bo was stunned, in the rearview mirror, Su Xin was meeting his gaze with a serious face, without dodging, her eyes were still slightly red.
"Hmm...... It's too much, you're so good-looking, it's really too much. ”
Su Xin burst out laughing, and Qian Bo felt that he was right. Su Xin's smile is really beautiful.
"Isn't it?" Chambers continued his flamboyant tongue, "Surely a lot of boys are chasing you, right?" You still have to be a little more restrained and leave some opportunities for the other girls around you. ”
"Oh, don't make fun of me, Chamber." Su Xin covered his face.
"Hahaha, you can't say it's good-looking."
The car stopped at another red light, like a dividing line, and this avenue from the mountain road to the city divides the busy and the leisurely, and the opposite side of the road is full of traffic.
Qian Bo thought about it, but still took out a cigarette, Su Xin saw it, and did not show an expression of opposition.
Su Xin actually understands that some words in the adult world can only be revealed with the assistance of cigarettes.
"Xiao Su." Qian Bo comfortably took a puff of cigarette and spit the smoke out of the car, "You know, why did your second uncle take the will away, right?" ”
"Actually...... I still don't know. Su Xin shook his head, "After my father died, the second uncle actually came to my house many times, and he always talked about the house, like he never came because he cared about us, I really ...... last night It's hard to accept. Even if I knew I was wrong, Erberta...... It's really for me and my mother, but the gap is too big. So...... I kept pretending to be asleep last night. ”
Chambers almost choked on a puff of cigarette, and the sound of a horn behind him sounded piercingly, and he slowly stepped on the gas pedal and started.
"You're not asleep?" Chamber's eyebrows furrowed.
Su Xin patted the car seat: "In the second half of the night, I fell asleep, and then I slept in the car for a long time." ”
Qian Bo thought that all the words he talked about with Su Jiamu last night should have been taken into Su Xin's ears. The most important thing is that he also talked to Su Jiamu about some topics between the two, in fact, to liven up the atmosphere, but in Su Xin's ears, what kind of old and disrespectful bastard has he become?
"Your second uncle, you have always been a knife-mouthed tofu heart. You know the recession in Su Mansion, he has to withstand the pressure of supporting the whole family, and he also has to take care of you and your mother. ”
"Take care of me?" Su Xin frowned.
After another puff of cigarette, his mouth was hot, as if a puff of steam had been poured in, and Chambers snuffed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray in the car and spit it out reluctantly.
"Where does your mom work?" Chambers asked.
"Internet café network management, night shift, and a thread factory, half a day shift."
"The Internet café should be the 'Maple Grove' at the east entrance of the alley, that place, I have been to, and if you use the network management for the night shift, it will be 1,000 and 5 a month."
"So low?" Su Xin raised his voice, "No, my mother told me three thousand." ”
"Do you really think that's that? If it were true, I would have stopped being a driver. There is also the thread factory, as far as I know, it should be in the western suburbs of Yunhai City, more than 10 kilometers back and forth, not counting the road expenses, how much can you earn in half a day? So your family only earns 2,000 yuan a month, do you think this is enough for all the expenses of the two of you? ”
Su Xin thought for a while, and she couldn't help leaning towards the side of the car door, seeking some security.
Putting the blanket back on his body, Su Xin asked in a trembling voice, "What do you mean, the extra money was given to my mother by the second uncle?" ”
"yes, it's done."
Su Xin let out a long sigh, his eyes couldn't focus on one place, and he was in a daze.
"I heard, did Su Fuli make an agreement for you recently? Say what...... What to do for college? ”
"Well, I signed it."
"That was proposed by your second uncle alone."
"What?"
"When Jiamu made this suggestion, almost the entire Su Mansion, including your second aunt Su Mu, voted against, that little girl, she was a good person, but she had no courage and was not firm, and the people in the Su Mansion scared her, and the trembling little hand was raised. Your second uncle quarreled with his family for three days and three nights, and then took the shares of his own factory and packed tickets with his family, saying that if you didn't get the required score and couldn't go to a good university, he would lose the shares. ”
Su Xin's eyes were full of incredible shock.
She suddenly felt a burst of retching, to herself, to Su Mu, and to this fickle and hypocritical world. Her own inability to discriminate made her feel helpless and remorseful.
At this moment, Su Xin felt that the people in this world are a contradictory combination of good and evil, selfishness and generosity, courage and cowardice. This is a great achievement, but at the same time it is difficult to fathom. After all, all human beings are authorities, without exception. She knows she still has a long way to go and a long way to go.
"Your second uncle, in fact, has always treated you as his own child." Chamberber said, "Your father is not necessarily wrong, Sufu is his home, his roots." Family harmony is not necessarily right, you are also like his child, he is his pride. But who you want to resent and who you want to be grateful to is your own choice. ”
"I don't hate it." Su Xin's firm voice came.
Outside the window, a golden light shone in, crossed the corners of Su Xin's dry mouth, and a smile that accepted the touch of the light was revealed, upturned in a stubborn but gentle arc. This smile is a rare healing in the world, and it may be able to resist all suffering, it reminds people of the lighthouse on the sea, the sun after the dark clouds, the rainbow after the rainstorm, and the warm spring after the wind and snow.
"They...... I love it all, I love it all. ”
