Chapter 239: Single Knife Meeting
An agreement was placed on the table, and after reading it carefully, Su Xin was so angry that he stood up directly, and looked angrily at his cowardly mother Su Fangran in front of him.
"What do they mean?" Su Xin's words were cold, which was very different from the lively atmosphere of the New Year.
Su Fangran lowered her head, with a sense of apology in her tone, although this had nothing to do with her, but her submissive attitude always made Su Xin's heart burst into a nameless fire.
Su Fangran raised her head, and her eyes had already begun to redden.
"Last time in the Western restaurant, your second uncle talked to you, about your grades, he specially asked your grandfather to draft this agreement, and the whole family agreed."
"Why do they have to take as high as they ask me to take?"
"Actually...... That's not too much for you. ”
Su Xin understands that his efforts to study at night do guarantee his grades, and many good students in the class lack stamina, and they unload their strength in the second year of high school, and their grades are floating in the middle. And the agreement is written in black and white that he is required to score more than 620 points in the college entrance examination. Su Xin originally set himself a higher goal than this, but he didn't want others, especially the people in Su Mansion, to ask him to do so, as if his grades and future were in their hands.
She angrily picked up the paper, pointed at it, and said, "What is this?" Mom, do you understand? This is not an agreement, this is a unilateral announcement! The high-sounding saying is that it is an agreement, have you discussed it with me? It's as if they just decided I couldn't do it, so they could find an excuse to take back the house! ”
"Yes, but they're wrong, aren't they?" Su Fangran's face showed a smile of happiness, "Xiao Xin, you can get this score, you can show them." ”
Su Xin shook his head helplessly and rubbed his temples, as if he was under tremendous pressure.
"You still don't understand, Mom, this is just the beginning, it's like the first treaty signed in history that humiliates the country, this door is open, and it is impossible to close it."
"How could it be, they say......"
"Whatever they say is a half-truth, and when I get that score, which university do they ask me to go to? What kind of work will you do in the future, these so-called agreements will come one after another, do we all have to sign them, and they will lead us by the nose for the rest of our lives? ”
"No, I'll tell them." Su Fangran held Su Xin and tried to calm her down.
"There's never been such a thing as 'say yes', don't you understand? In their world, there is only profit! ”
Su Xin collapsed on the bench weakly, she was so hysterical because of the guardian column on the agreement, Su Fangran had already written her name, and she was waiting for her handprint. This compromise made me breathless, as if I was alone in the struggle, isolated and helpless, and when I looked up at the front, it was all dark and defeated.
From outside the house, a thick voice shouted, "There's no need to speak ill of us behind our backs." ”
Su Jiamu walked in with two boxes of things, judging from the big red packaging, there is no need to think about it, it is nothing more than a specialty or a health care product or something like that, when visiting relatives and friends during the New Year, this thing should be regarded as a necessity, but it is a little inconsistent with Su Jiamu's hands.
He was wearing a big red cotton jacket, his whole body was warm and festive, and his complexion was not ruddy, but it was much better than when he saw him before, at least he couldn't see his thin appearance.
Su Mu followed him, wearing a slim bright red coat and black thin high boots.
"Fang Ran, bring you something." Su Jiamu put the things on the ground, and then turned her eyes to Su Xin, she still seemed to be unwelcome, as if it was an extremely unfortunate thing to see herself on the New Year's Day.
"You're welcome, sit down first, I'll go see what the dishes are." Looking at Su Fangran's appearance, it seemed that she knew in advance that the two of them were coming.
"Don't bother, Xiao Ran." Su Mu didn't seem to be planning to sit down, "Let's go out to eat, Jiamu and I have already booked the restaurant, and the car is at the door." ”
"Yes, eat first." Su Jiamu said.
Su Fangran was just about to say something, when there was a continuous sound of firecrackers in the depths of the alley, knocking on the walls everywhere, and the echoes came one after another, resonating as if amplifying the sound, drowning out the conversation of the people in the house, and obtaining a unique "silence".
"Bastard." Su Xin whispered a curse in this noisy voice, and she wasn't even sure if she had made any noise.
After the cannon stopped, Su Xin stood up first.
"I'm not too hungry, go ahead."
"Hey! During the New Year, how can you become a family without you, and go to all of them. After Su Mu said this, Su Jiamu waved her arm, Su Mu turned around in surprise, and then realized that he had missed his mouth.
"Family?" Su Xin pulled down the second aunt's arm, and her brows furrowed into a figure, "In other words, it's not just you who came?" ”
Thinking that those disgusting faces of Su Mansion would come to his side, the disdainful eyes of the eldest brother, and the disgusting meat on the sister-in-law's face, as well as the disrespectful Su Luohe (grandfather), they asked questions with bad intentions, and their stomachs were nauseated.
"It's the New Year, get together." Su Fangran played a round game.
"I'm not going!"
"Be good, be sensible."
Su Xin set his eyes on the table: "I won't sign this agreement, you will never abide by the agreement, I really doubt that your business is doing so big, and today's 'single knife meeting', even if I don't have the courage to participate, I don't have an appetite, I can't eat it." ”
"Su Xin, our family is here today for this." Su Jiamu said with a smile, as if he was not moved by Su Xin's words. "You put one hundred and twenty hearts, your second uncle and I swear to God today, if you don't believe it, we will make another agreement, if your college entrance examination score meets our requirements, we break our promise, let alone this house, all my assets will be transferred to you."
Su Jiamu is worthy of being a person who mixes in the wine game, and there is no ambiguity in his bold words, this confident appearance also makes Su Xin's heart shake a little, "Maybe it's true" The thought flashed in Su Xin's mind, and she thought about it uncontrollably.
"Let's go, let's go eat first." Su Mu grabbed Su Xin's arm again.
"No, I still don't want to go."
"What's wrong?"
"It has nothing to do with it, I don't really have much appetite."
Su Fangran's expression became worried, "What's wrong Xiaoxin, is it uncomfortable?" ”
"No, I just don't have much appetite and want to sleep."
Su Xin paced back to his room.
After repeatedly pushing off, Su Xin didn't know how many times she repeated the word "no", she only knew that she was pretending to be tired and lying on the bed until she was unconscious, and when she was about to fall asleep, a muffled thunder woke her up, like a fierce beast that suddenly broke into her room.
Su Xin happily looked at the small raindrops falling outside the window (Su Xin likes rainy days, as described above).
The room and living room were empty, there was no sound, and looking out through the window, the black Highlander sedan at the door was gone, presumably her mother went to this party instead of herself, Su Xin could imagine that the people in the family were scolding herself, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for her mother.
Su Xin walked out of the room, and the agreement was still lying quietly on the table, as if it was her critical illness notice, and she didn't have the courage to read it again.
She grabbed her blue umbrella and stepped out the door.
