Chapter 6 Poverty is the original sin

Xu Mo's home and Xiao Min's home are not far away.

With the spring breeze of reform blowing, the place of Jinghai is changing with each passing day.

Slightly capable families, such as Wu Yong and Gu Yuxin's family, have already moved into high-rise buildings.

Only Xu Mo's family is like this, his parents don't want to be motivated, or Xiao Min's family, who is at the bottom of society, is still cowering in a corner of the city.

Xu Mo and Xiao Min walked on the sidewalk one after the other.

Both of them belong to the marginal elements of the class.

Xu Mo is because he didn't like to contact people since he was a child.

And Xiao Min was looked down upon because of family reasons.

Xu Mo didn't look down on her.

also because of the proximity of the family, I went home with her.

It's a good classmate in the class.

But it doesn't stop there.

For today, Xiao Min suddenly said that he wanted to leave with him.

It made Xu Mo a little surprised.

"Do you have any money?"

Just when Xu Mo walked behind suspiciously.

Xiao Min in front suddenly mustered up the courage to look at Xu Mo and asked seriously.

At this time, Xu Mo suddenly realized.

Xiao Min did have an unclean disease in high school, and this disease needs money very much, as if he needs to go to the hospital for lasers, which is 500 yuan at a time, and 12 times for a course of treatment, that is, 6,000 yuan.

That's a lot of money for an average family.

What's more, it's this already crippled family.

Xu Mo remembered that because he didn't have the money, Xiao Min had no choice but to go to that kind of unscrupulous small clinic, but he was seen by the girls in the same class and began to make pornographic rumors, and then Xiao Min became a street rat that everyone in the school shouted at.

Originally, with Xiao Min's conditions, he could have run for student loans for poor students.

But when it came time to vote, no one voted for her.

And the teacher took it for granted.

Then another student got a student loan.

Over there, he laughed and scolded with other classmates.

"Hee-hee, let's say, I'm going to invite you to dinner tonight!"

Looking at Xiao Min again, seventeen or eighteen years old, still wearing the blue and white school uniform of the previous generation, a little shabby, short hair, and a pair of big determined eyes.

Xu Mo is not a virgin, but going back to ten years ago, Xu Mo still feels that he can help or help.

"Not now, you'll have to wait for me for two weeks." Xu Mo said.

Xiao Min was a little surprised: "What are you doing without asking me for money?" ”

"If you don't want to say it, I won't ask, but you'll have to wait for me for two weeks." Xu Mo said firmly again.

I don't know why, listening to Xu Mo's firm words, Xiao Min was a little moved, only to feel that his nose was sore, but his tears couldn't help but fall.

"Thanks, thanks,"

"Thank you!"

At half past six in the evening, it was already dark, and the road was full of traffic.

Eighteen-year-old Xiao Min couldn't hold back any longer, leaned into Xu Mo's arms and cried.

She didn't like Xu Mo, but she really couldn't hold on.

An eighteen-year-old girl secretly ran to the hospital alone, and it turned out that the disease was found.

The girl who said the result of the doctor, Xiao Min felt that the sky was about to fall, she didn't dare to say anything, she could only hide this matter in her heart, on the one hand, she was desperate for the future, and on the other hand, she was a high school student, where to get 6,000 yuan?

When I came out of the hospital.

Gu Yuze has been chattering endlessly.

However, from beginning to end, Xiao Min ignored Gu Yuze.

Because she knows what she's facing right now.

Gu Yuze couldn't help at all.

until he mustered up the courage to ask Xu Mo to borrow money.

She didn't even say how much.

But Xu Mo's firmness made her feel that Xu Mo would definitely borrow herself.

She couldn't hold back, and finally cried.

But Xu Mo didn't say a word, standing there quietly, letting Xiao Min cry.

Xiao Min's home is in two alleys in front of Xu Mo's house.

Xu Mo sent Xiao Min home first, and then took two more steps to go home.

Ten years ago, the health bureau's family home was like a vegetable market.

The doorman is a sixty-year-old man, who has retired, and he reads the newspaper with reading glasses in front of the door every day, and when he saw Xu Mo coming back, he said hello: "Come back silently." ”

Xu Mo greeted Grandpa Qin politely.

Growing up in the family building since he was a child, Xu Mo is very familiar with the grass and trees here.

At this time, it was about seven o'clock in the evening, and every household was stir-frying and cooking there, and the sound of shovels colliding with iron pots could be heard from far and near, as well as the smell of celery stir-fried pork.

I don't know who gave birth to the baby on the second floor, and the doll is crying over there.

In the courtyard, there are elderly people rubbing clothes with a washboard.

"Xu Mo is out of school!?"

"Silently got out of school so late today?"

The Health Bureau, together with the retired employees, has a total of 257 households, excluding those who have already moved out to buy commercial houses, and the resident population of family buildings is more than 100 households.

Nowadays, there are very few young people here, and most of them buy houses and give their family buildings to relatives or parents at home.

These old people, or Xu Mo's father's colleagues, basically grew up watching Xu Mo.

Since he was in college, Xu Mo has basically not returned home.

But when I come back here again, I always feel that every plant and tree must be very familiar.

Xu Mo's home is on the second floor, a small one-bedroom apartment.

That's it, when my father got married, he played a scoundrel and made trouble from the head of the life section.

Before entering the house, Xu Mo heard a familiar noise.

"Am I resentful? Xu Zhiyuan, if you have some ability, can I be so resentful? ”

"You say every day that Wu Yong's education is not as high as yours, and Wu Yong's wife is driving a Mercedes-Benz, look at me again! All day long, you have to take the bus! Xu Zhiyuan, I didn't say that I wanted to be happy when I married you, but you can't let me suffer this sin, I don't care, but what about my son, my son is going to college, and he still shrinks into this house every day! ”

Xu Mo opened the door.

The noise stopped abruptly.

The mother sat in front of the small dining table with a look of grievance.

Xu Zhiyuan sat on the sofa and hung his head dejectedly.

Xu Mo's mother wiped her tears: "Come back so late, eat quickly." ”

In a small house of sixty square meters, in addition to the bedroom where his parents live, there is also a bedroom for Xu Mo.

After Xu Mo finished eating, he returned to the bedroom.

Take a long breath.

Hundreds of days of cheap couples, no one feels more than Xu Mo.

Xu Mo is not married at the age of 28, and there are reasons for Gu Yuxin, but it is more of a problem with the original family.

From childhood to adulthood, I lived in such a small house of sixty square meters.

Father and mother had a small quarrel for three days and a big quarrel for five days.

In fact, with Xu Mo's family, there is no need to mix so badly, even if it is said that his father is not reused, he is also an employee of the Health Bureau, so he can come up with a sum of money to buy a commercial house.

It's a pity that one wrong step is the wrong step.

In the early days, Xu Mo's parents had some savings, but Xu Mo's father, Xu Zhiyuan, definitely wanted to do something else because he was not reused in the unit.

A few years ago, the stock market was good, many people made a fortune in the stock market, Xu Zhiyuan felt that he was a graduate student, and those who had not studied could make a fortune, so he was a graduate student, and he was not like a fish in water in the stock market.

When the time comes, make a few millions, won't you go sideways in the unit?

So he was ruthless and invested all his money in stocks.

In the end, the loss was lost.

At that time, Xu Mo's mother really wanted to cry without tears, and her eyes were about to kill her father.

The money is gone! What will you read to your child in the future?

Say that you can use the money to buy a house? How can I afford to buy a house now?

Faced with his wife's questioning, Xu Zhiyuan could only honestly squat in the corner, saying that he just wanted to change his wife to a bigger house, who knew that he would pay for it?

This was a few years ago, and in the past few years, Xu Mo's parents have saved another amount of money, but this money is for Xu Mo to study in college in the future, and it is impossible for anyone to mess around.

In fact, according to the provident fund in the hands of the parents, it is completely possible to make a down payment of 40,000 or 50,000 yuan, and you can buy a 130-square-meter senior room, and the provident fund can completely offset the monthly payment.
