Chapter 233: The Elven Prince's Secret 2
"Does your brother know all this money?" Watching Mante sort out his money one by one, and then count it several times, then put the money in the cupboard with confidence, Wood couldn't help but quip.
"Don't talk to me about this guy, he's tougher than my mother. You don't know my mother, she's so sharp-eyed that you can't hide anything from her. So this time I was very careful, and I finally hid it from my mother, but I didn't expect to be discovered by my younger brother. Until my mother found my coins, I had to move places. As long as my mother can't see my money, even if my brother betrays me later, as long as I bite the bullet and refuse to admit it, they can't do anything about me. Mante said.
Although the money earned in the past few days has made Mante very happy, it is also very troubled, and it has always made him feel that he is worried about living every day. If his mother knew that he was secretly earning money behind her back and didn't tell her, God knows what would have happened to Mante.
Hearing Su Rui say that he was coming to Wood, Mante thought that he would bring all the money with him.
"I think you can give it to your mother, and she will be happy to see that you can make money on your own. Wood sighed how much he wanted to use the money he earned to win his mother's smile. However, he can only see his mother in his dreams, and he doesn't know if his mother knows that in this world, there is another child who misses her very much.
"Leave it to her? No, I won't do that, unless I'm in some danger, and it's the kind of life crisis that has no hope. Mante exclaimed, exaggeratedly, thinking that Wood's proposal was ridiculous to the extreme.
"Why don't you think of your mother like that, is it so easy for her to raise you?" Wood felt that Mante had only been a little slower to react at times, but not so much that it would give the impression that there was anything wrong with his character. But through this incident, Wood is really a little disappointed in Mante, and he doesn't understand why Mante is so resistant to his mother.
"You say that because you don't understand the special situation of our family, and if you did, I don't think you would think like that. Mante was also a little depressed at this time, he rarely mentioned his family and his parents in front of others.
However, Wood obviously misunderstood himself at this time, and if he didn't explain it clearly, Wood would probably disown him as a friend in the future. Mante also knows that Wood's longing for his mother is very strong, while his friends are so cold and even impersonal to his mother, which makes everyone dissatisfied.
In order to clear up Wood's misunderstanding, Mante decided to tell Wood his family's secrets, hoping that when Wood found out, he would not underestimate himself or pity himself.
"Our family doesn't look very rich, well, to be precise, very poor. But the worst impression we give is nothing more than that, but only we know that our difficulties are more than that, much more. Mante seemed to be in a bad mood at this time, but since he had decided to tell Wood all this, Mante would definitely do it.
It turned out that Mante's mother had indirect psychosis, and her condition had not been controlled. Because the family really didn't have the money to treat their mother's illness, their father, in order not to let outsiders know their mother's status, was also to prevent their mother from suddenly falling ill outside the home and causing harm to others. Their fathers limit their mother's range of activities, and their mother's daily range of activity can only be at home.
When my mother is well, she will do some housework within her ability, and once she gets sick, she will break everything valuable or worthless in the house. Their room looked very shabby, and that was because their mother had broken them. In order to prevent this from happening, it is also because they really don't have the extra money to buy those things. Because it is not commonly used, it is no longer bought if it is broken.
Mante's father, as I said before, worked under Mark's father and was an inconspicuous little man. But even so, Mante's father forbade Mante and Mark to have any analysis.
Mante's father knew that Mante had never had a good impression of Mark, so he would often tell Mante during dinner that he was usually in the same class as Mark and that he must not offend Mark. Because he didn't believe Mante's assurances, Mante's father even considered letting Mante go to school a year later, so that he could stagger the school time with Mark.
This request Mante was naturally unwilling to die, so under his repeated assurances, Mante's father agreed to Mante's request.
Regarding his father's indifferent education, Mante still hopes that his mother can get better soon, so that he doesn't have to face his father's oppression alone. Ever since he learned of Wood's plans for the summer vacation, Mante has secretly made up his mind that he must scrape together enough money for his mother's treatment this time. As long as the mother's illness can be cured, the whole family will be able to return to the joy and laughter they used to have.
In order to prevent his mother from discovering his plan, Mante hid the money very hard. But in the end, he was discovered by his younger brother, and this matter can't fail no matter what. Mante originally planned to tell his brother about this, but Mante also knew his brother's personality very well. They are twin brothers, but their temperaments are very different.
Mante's younger brother Manchi is a man who can't hide secrets, and if you tell him about your plans, it means that you will reveal your secrets to the world, and it will work out perfectly.
So Mante doesn't tell anyone his secrets until he has saved enough money. Wood was the second person to know, and Mante didn't want to tell Wood, but who made Wood misunderstand Mante.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner, if I had known sooner, I wouldn't have needed the money, it's important to treat your mother, how much money are you missing now?" Wood asked, he never thought that Mante's family situation would be like this, and Su Rui didn't know the specific situation of Mante's family before. All they know is that they don't have a lot of money, that's all.
