Chapter 212: Life Experience
Walking on the way home, Xia Qing's eyes swept over Xia Yang from time to time. She couldn't believe www.biquge.info pen "Fun" that the brother who had been away from home for many years, who was only in his early seventies and was only in his early seventies in her memory, and had an ordinary appearance, had now become so tall and handsome. If it weren't for the contours on her face, she really couldn't overlap the person in front of her with the brother in her impression, and she didn't dare to recognize each other at all.
However, although her brother's image and personality have changed greatly, the resentment that has been pent-up against him for a long time, as well as what has just happened, all make her extremely irritable, and she has always kept a cold face, and she has never said a word on the road.
Xia Yang was also a little surprised by his sister Xia Qing's current appearance and dress, he remembered that when he left, she was just a little girl in junior high school, but he didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, she had become a big girl.
After seeing Xia Qing, he unconsciously felt a strong sense of guilt and regret in his heart, especially after what happened just now, he could imagine that a lot of things must have happened in his family over the years. Not only did he not take on anything, but he also missed the most important years of her growth, and for a while, he didn't know whether his decision to run away from home was right or wrong.
Xia Yang could feel Xia Qing's indifference to him, but he didn't complain at all, but took the initiative to break the silence and asked, "Xiaoqing, what's going on at home?"
"You can't help if something happens, will you care...... Uh, sorry. Xia Qing's face was like frost, and she subconsciously replied in a mocking tone. But after she raised her head and saw the complicated look of guilt on Xia Yang's face, and when he shocked Kong Yuandong just now, the terrifying momentum on his body was still in her heart, and she couldn't help but say sorry.
Xia Yang didn't expect her to apologize to herself, so she couldn't help but shake her head, stroked the top of her head again and said, "Xiaoqing, don't say that, the person who said sorry should be me." ”
Hearing his words, Xia Qing's heart suddenly softened somehow, and the resentment against him suddenly turned into a strong grievance and sadness, her eyes were red, and she felt like crying.
It's just that out of self-esteem, she didn't want to forgive him so quickly, so she couldn't help but push the hand on her head and pouted, "I hate it! Don't touch people's heads and rub my hair up." ”
"Haha. Seeing her cuteness in her dissatisfaction, Xia Yang couldn't help laughing.
Between brothers and sisters, the feeling of blood dissolving in water cannot be erased no matter what, and the strangeness and estrangement between the two of them almost dissipated in Xia Qing's words.
Xia Yang looked at his sister's hair mixed with several colors, a wide hoodie with huge English letters printed on it, a pair of eight-point jeans full of holes, a smoky face, and colorful nails, with shiny jewelry hanging around his neck, and the huge earrings on his ears were only worn on one ear, he couldn't help but half-jokingly complain: "Xiaoqing, why are you now taking this kind of route of killing Matt at the junction of urban and rural areas? It's really ugly!"
"You're ugly, this is called a trend, what do you know?" Xia Qing snorted: "It's you, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you're so much higher...... People can't even reach your shoulders now, it's really annoying!"
Xia Yang was amused by her, but then gradually smiled, slowly turned her shoulder, and said in a condensed voice: "Xiaoqing, my brother has never taken care of the family's affairs outside all these years, it's me who is wrong." But now that my brother is back, I will settle all the affairs of the family, and my brother will definitely not let you be wronged again in the future. ”
His words made Xia Qing choke up suddenly, and after calling "brother", he threw himself into his arms and cried loudly. It's been four years, and the brother who has taken care of and loved him since he was a child finally came back after suddenly running away from home and having no news!
Xia Yang hugged his sister who couldn't stop crying, and his heart was also extremely complicated. With his state of mind, he couldn't control it at all, and all kinds of emotions and memories came to his heart for a while.
He and Xia Qing can be said to have grown up in a broken family since childhood.
His father, Xia Jianguo, was in business when he was young, and he also accumulated some capital at first, and when Xia Yang was young, his family was quite prosperous. But since he became a gambling addict and became a gambler, Xia Jianguo no longer had the intention of running it, and as he gambled more and more, he soon lost his family.
For as long as Xia Yang can remember, his father has spent most of his time at the poker table, and his mother has been arguing with him all day long. It's just that for the sake of their two siblings, their mother has always chosen to swallow her anger and did not divorce him.
After losing his family to nothing and owing a lot of foreign debts, Xia Jianguo had no choice but to take his mother out to work. It wasn't until he and his sister grew up that their parents were away from home all year round, and they would only come back during the New Year's holidays.
For a long time, Xia Jianguo's gambling habit has never been changed, and the money he and his mother earned from part-time work, except for a small part sent home, was all lost by him. Therefore, Xia Yang has almost no feelings for his father who caused all this, and his heart is full of disgust for this family.
Due to his perennial patience, he couldn't see any hope in Xia Jianguo, and his mother suddenly broke out in the year he was about to take the college entrance examination, and with a little money he had secretly saved, he followed a sister she met outside to the south to start a pyramid scheme.
Also that year, my grandmother suddenly became seriously ill and relied on him and his sister Xia Qing to take care of her. And his parents, after receiving his notice, did not rush back to visit him once until his grandmother died of illness, but only came back with a little medical expenses.
But that pitiful amount of money was a drop in the bucket, and his grandmother soon died because she looked down on Bing, and it was not until her grandmother died that her parents rushed back from out of town when other relatives were already helping to organize the funeral.
That was arguably Xia Yang's most angry and painful period. It was precisely because of this incident that after a big quarrel with his parents, he didn't even take the college entrance examination, only brought an ID card and two hundred yuan borrowed from his classmates, and ran away from home directly, and he didn't come back once for four years!
For so many years, the only thing he knew about his family was that when he was paying back his classmates' money, he heard that his mother had left the MLM organization, and then he did not go out with his father again, but returned to his job in Pengcheng's hometown when he was young, and became a primary school teacher again.
In fact, over the years, Xia Yang has no feelings for his father Xia Jianguo, and he is basically no different from a stranger in his heart. But for his mother and sister, he has always had a heart of concern.
It's just that he chose to give up his studies and leave the home that he hated so much, if he couldn't mix up outside, what face would he have to go back?
Over the years, he has changed countless jobs and endured countless hardships outside, and when he was most depressed, he also set up a stall and slept on an overpass, but he has never been able to make a name for himself. This is also the reason why Xia Yang has never looked back.
The road is chosen by himself, so even if he is kneeling, he will continue to walk!
Later, after getting the Ten Thousand World Beads, he has been fighting to change his destiny and rarely has time to think of his family. And since embarking on the path of cultivation, his concept of home has become weaker and weaker, if it weren't for Nie Xiaoqian's matter, which made him think of his future destination, which aroused homesickness, I am afraid I don't know how long it will take before he has the idea of returning to the real world.
But it's okay, Xia Yang knows very well that in his mind, his family has always been an obsession hidden deep in his heart and can't let go. As his cultivation deepened and deepened, he faintly realized in his heart, and finally understood that it was no wonder that the cultivators in ancient times all emphasized monkhood and cut off the mundane, and if the roots were not pure, it would only be detrimental to cultivation.
Because of this, Xia Yang came back this time to deal with this obsession that he had been unable to let go, and only by completely solving his family's problems could he practice with peace of mind and march to a higher realm!
But if you want to cut off mortal dust, how can it be done easily? Even with Xia Yang's firm martial arts heart, after seeing his sister Xia Qing, he no longer has any certainty.
