Chapter 18: Heart-to-Heart (for the alliance leader Huang Gua Elder Uncle)

Xu Tongdao took a bath and when he came to the bedroom, as soon as he entered the door, he saw that his younger brother Xu Tonglu was already sleeping on the bed.

His house is not large, including the hall, there are only three earthen houses, with his parents' bedroom on the east and this one on the west...... In the middle, a "wall" is separated by bamboo slices and leaves, dividing the whole room into two.

His sister Ge Yuzhu lives in the inner room, and he and his younger brother Xu Tonglu live in the outside room, and the two brothers have slept in the same bed since they were children.

Xu Tonglu slept in the bed, and he Xu Tongdao slept outside the bed.

The light was still on in the room, and when Xu Tongdao entered the door, he saw his younger brother Xu Tonglu sleeping motionless in the bed.

"Asleep?"

He asked lightly.

Xu Tonglu didn't react, and seemed to be really asleep.

But Xu Tongdao knew that the kid must still be awake, but because he had just choked his neck, this kid was sulking with him now!

Closing the door casually, Xu Tongdao subconsciously touched the trouser pockets on both sides, before he was reborn, he had been smoking for many years, and when he encountered things, he would habitually smoke a cigarette, which was a kind of psychological dependence, but at this time, he was naturally empty, and he had no cigarettes on his body now.

With a faint smile, Xu Tongdao sighed, walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at his younger brother who was pretending to be asleep in the bed with complicated eyes.

The two brothers are only one year apart, and they grew up sleeping in the same bed since they were children, so their relationship is naturally very deep.

But the experience of those years before being reborn......

Let him have mixed feelings about his younger brother.

He knew that his younger brother's nature was not bad, and the main reason why the original time and space went down the wrong path and finally tossed himself into prison for three years was because of his father.

The father who eloped with his aunt...... Not only is it very irresponsible, but it also makes their whole family unable to raise their heads in the village.

Not only in their Xujia Village, but also in front of all their relatives, in front of all their classmates and friends who have heard about it, they can't raise their heads either.

This feeling of shame makes Xu Tonglu, who has been arrogant since he was a child, unable to stand it at all, Xu Tonglu, who has won awards every year since elementary school, has always been proud, but since his father eloped with his aunt, everyone looked at him like they were watching a joke, many people pointed and whispered behind his back, and even more excessively, even in front of him, he made sarcastic remarks.

He Xu Tongdao has also suffered a lot of such experiences.

The difference is that he Xu Tongdao is not so proud in his heart, and his heart is deeper, so he can bear it, but his younger brother Xu Tonglu obviously can't bear it.

So in the original time and space, Xu Tonglu's temperament changed greatly, he didn't listen to anyone's words, no matter who talked to him, he was very impatient, and he didn't have the heart to read the book, and he degenerated very quickly.

Xu Tongdao hated his father very much in his heart, but he always felt very sorry for his younger brother Xu Tonglu, and he hated iron more than steel.

Tonight, my sister slept with her mother in the east room, so there were only him and Xu Tonglu in the west room.

Xu Tongdao felt that tonight was quite suitable for him to have a heart-to-heart relationship with his younger brother.

Although he was not confident that he could change his younger brother Xu Tonglu with a heart-to-heart meeting, he still wanted to try.

He really hopes that his younger brother will be sensible soon, and that he can continue to be motivated.

"Xiaolu, I know you haven't slept yet, let's talk, shall we?"

Xu Tongdao looked at Xu Tonglu, who was motionless, and started talking.

But after he said this, Xu Tonglu in the bed still didn't react, and seemed to have slept soundly.

Xu Tongdao was not surprised, this was his younger brother Xu Tonglu's style.

So, he began to talk to himself.

"Our dad is irresponsible, he ran away, it's already a fact......"

"Xiaolu, in this world, we can choose many things, but what kind of parents do we have...... We can't choose it, it's fate! We can only accept it. ”

Xu Tonglu in the bed still didn't react.

Xu Tongdao sighed lightly, leaned against the head of the bed, and continued with half-squinted eyes, "I know that having such a Lao Tzu in the stall makes you very angry and embarrassed...... Me too, but what can I do? No matter how embarrassing and difficult it is, we can only face it!

It's like a person who accidentally falls into a manure pit, yes! It's humiliating to fall into a manure pit, but the path is ...... Don't you feel even more humiliated if you don't climb out of the pit because you are embarrassed to fall into the pit and end up drowning in the pit because you are embarrassed?"

Speaking of this, Xu Tongdao glanced at his younger brother again, but Xu Tonglu still didn't react.

The metaphor of "dung pit" didn't make this kid excited, which was a bit unexpected to him.

This is to carry out the pretending to sleep to the end!

Xu Tongdao smiled faintly, looked up at the leaves on the roof, and continued: "Xiaolu, we are brothers!

Didn't you?

Have you ever thought about why I did it to you tonight?

I know you're still mad at me, and you want to get up and pound me on the bed, I know, you must be thinking so.

If you really want to beat me, get up and beat me! I promise I won't fight back.

But...... As your brother, I hope you can try to get back to normalcy and continue to study, I know it's hard, but that's not a reason for us to be willing to fall......! Because our family is now the pillars of our family!"

Speaking of which, Xu Tongdao still didn't hear his brother's response.

Maybe my brother was really asleep.

But when Xu Tongdao said this, he didn't want to stop there.

So he paused, and continued: "Our father is an irresponsible bastard! We can't learn from him! Our brothers must fight, even if it is not for ourselves, we have to think about our mother and Yuzhu, what do you say?"

Xiaolu, you must listen to my brother's words, don't fight with me about making money, I'm older than you, don't say I'm a year older, even if it's a day older, it's older than you, so, before I can't hold on, you don't need to think about making money, your task is to study hard, it's best to be admitted to university, let's stand up!

Xu Tongdao's words were finished, but his younger brother Xu Tonglu in the bed was still motionless.

In this regard, Xu Tongdao glanced at it and looked a little disappointed.

He really hoped to convince his brother.

But......

If he poked his head out at this time and glanced at Xu Tonglu's face, he would find that Xu Tonglu, who had been motionless, had already crawled with tears on his face and bit his lip tightly.

Xu Tongdao, who was disappointed in his heart, looked at the leaves on the roof in a daze, and was stunned for a while, and finally sighed lightly again, got up and undressed and went to bed, and then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

......

The next day, Xu Tongdao got up early, went to the kitchen to get a shrimp rake and a fish basket, rolled up his trouser legs, and went out to fish.

The family is having a hard time now, and since there are fish in the field, he doesn't want to waste the opportunity to get some fish and go home, so that he can add a dish.

If there is a lot, you can also sell it for some money to supplement the family.
