Chapter 94: The Last Resort in the Face of Survival
Huo Xiyao saw that Xia Chu obviously felt sorry for himself, and the two tastes of sweet and sour came to his heart in an instant.
He thought for a moment, reached out and took her hand, seeing that she didn't shake it off.
Only then did he smile as if he had obtained some treasure and continued, "Compared with what I did now, I have changed a lot. At that time, I was thin and dark, and my hair was still very long, and I didn't really talk to you, and it was normal that you couldn't think of me. ”
"Especially later, I became a real negative teaching material for the entire Guankou Town. In the beginning, when people talked about me, they would only say 'that wild seed' with sympathy or contempt, and say that I ...... I don't have a father, and I can't be blamed for saying that I was hurt by my mother, after all, if I can choose, I don't want to be my mother's child. ”
"But then I dared to ...... I killed someone, but I was still pulled away by a police car. When people talk about me, they have no sympathy, only contempt and scolding, 'Sure enough, the son born of a mouse will make a hole, and it is not a good thing to be a mother, and it is the same when a son', and they will only say that I am a 'bad seed'. ”
"You have already turned back to the city at that time, even if you still heard about my deeds, since it is not a good person, of course you have to forget it completely."
Xia Chu hurriedly said, "No, I have never despised you and Auntie, and I have never thought you were bad." ”
Afraid that Huo Xiyao would not believe it, he emphasized in an accentuated tone, "Really! I know that my aunt is a last resort, and my aunt also said at that time that it is not easy for her, she has to support herself and her children, in the face of survival, what else is it? ”
"Let me never listen to other people's nonsense, let alone follow nonsense. Besides, I have eyes, and I have my own thoughts and judgments......"
At that time, a few days after I arrived at my aunt's house at the beginning of the summer, I knew that there was a very beautiful aunt living in the same alley.
When I was eating with my aunt, I couldn't keep talking, so somehow, I gossiped about Huo Xiyao's mother.
Only then did I know that his mother's life was very bad, and she lost her father when she was a teenager, and finally the orphan and widow survived until she was twenty years old and ready to get married.
But he met someone unladylike, and he didn't know why he came to Guankou Town, but everyone could see that the other party had a good temperament, and he would have to return to the city sooner or later in the future, and his biological father fell in love at first sight and became pregnant before marriage.
As a result, Huo Xiyao's biological father really lived up to everyone's "expectations", and within a few months, he returned to the city and never returned.
Huo Xiyao's grandmother forced his mother to kill the child and start over after two years.
Huo Xiyao's mother refused to live or die, and insisted on giving birth.
Because of this, his grandmother was so angry that she fell ill not long after.
Huo Xiyao's mother and him are orphans and widows, and they depend on each other for their lives.
It's a pity that the life of their orphans and widows is even worse than the life of Huo Xiyao's grandmother and his mother.
The commissary on which the family relied for survival had a bad reputation because of Huo Xiyao's mother, and few people set foot again;
She has to run the commissary and take care of the children by herself, and she is really too busy.
In addition, a few acres of land in his hometown were also taken up by his uncle and aunt to plant, and he paid a public grain for Huo Xiyao's mother every year, and he felt that he was benevolent and righteous.
It is conceivable how the livelihood of the mother and son has become more and more difficult day by day and year by year over time.
When Huo Xiyao grew up, needed to go to school, and food and clothing became more and more expensive, the family life was even more unbearable.
There was no way, Huo Xiyao's mother had to ...... Quietly earned men's money.
But she also has her own principles, only earning money from single men and widowers, and ignoring those who have wives and girlfriends.
But just like that, her reputation gradually deteriorated.
After all, the entire Guankou Town is so big, and paper can't contain the fire after all.
Huo Xiyao's life was even more difficult, everyone could bully and laugh at him, and everyone took a detour to him, as if he was some dirty thing.
When he stumbled into high school, because his high school homeroom teacher was not as compassionate as he was in junior high school, he always protected him intentionally or unintentionally.
In addition, high school teachers are busier at work, and they really can't take care of too many things outside of teaching work.
Huo Xiyao's malice doubled.
Where is the true view of right and wrong in the minds of half-understood boys, and how can they have the consciousness and patience to put aside prejudice and truly understand a person?
They are instinctively curious about the so-called peachy incident, in a state of ignorance that is disdainful and can't wait to know more.
Moreover, their mothers are also jealous of Huo Xiyao's mother, for fear that their men will not know when they will become her subordinates, whether in front of their own men or sons, of course, there will be no good words.
So Huo Xiyao was humiliated and abused by the crowd, forced to call 'Dad' or light, if he didn't pay attention, it was a severe beating and group beating, the more he resisted, the more he would rather die than give in, the harder the bullies beat and laughed more rampantly.
Huo Xiyao hated those men because of this.
Also...... Hate the.
Finally, it was not a day's cold to freeze three feet, and in the second half of his senior year of high school, a tragedy was caused......
Huo Xiyao believed Xia Chu's words, "Chu Chu, I know you didn't think we were bad, you were different from those people at that time. Your aunt was different, she was the only one who would visit our house at that time, although it was very rare, but she did go and gave my mother the vegetables she planted. ”
"Listen to my mom, she also took you to the door...... I knew then that you and her old man were very good people. ”
When Xia Chu saw Huo Xiyao believe in himself, he was relieved at first.
Then he couldn't help sighing, "Yes, my aunt is really good, but unfortunately she was only over seventy when she went, and I didn't have time to honor her." This is what the son wants to raise but does not treat...... Ahem, that, I seem to have said the wrong thing again, I'm sorry, Xiyao, I really didn't mean it, I just couldn't control my broken mouth today. ”
Huo Xiyao's face wrinkled when he saw her.
I couldn't help but laugh, "I know you didn't mean to. I'm not telling you about the events of the year, it's not to sell miserably, to make you soft-hearted or anything. I want you to know that you are really precious in my heart. ”
"I was really pleasantly surprised when you suddenly appeared in front of me that day and asked me if I had a girlfriend and would I mind getting a certificate with you. I didn't expect to meet you again in such a way, you don't look much different from back then, but you are taller and more beautiful. ”
"After hearing your name and further confirming that it is you, I was even more pleasantly surprised. I hadn't thought about looking for you before, thinking that you must have found happiness, and although I regret it occasionally, it was no more. After getting the certificate with you, at the beginning, I also have to admit that although I have a good impression of you, it is not to the point of deep love. ”
