Chapter 161 The last straw is now.
Xu Laoer reluctantly agreed, "Thank you, brother, I'm relieved. I'll listen to you!"
But my heart was filled with despair.
He is really hopeless!
With no money and no connections, Xu Darong was the last straw for him and his old Xu family.
However, this straw didn't work at all.
Xu Laoer's heart was severely hurt by Yuanshi, and his last hope was severely cut off by Xu Laozi.
He is hopeless!
He can only lie in bed for the rest of his life.
What's the point of living like this?
He eats, drinks, and defecates in bed. Not only does he suffer, but he also injures his juniors. His dignity is gone. Living like this with nothing is worse than death.
Xu Laoer's mental state suddenly became even worse.
He can't die either. How much panic did the last suicide cause to the children?
Forget it, that's it, live one day at a time, and if you can't survive anymore, it will be over.
The heart is as gray as death.
Xu Laoer was in low spirits and lost the desire to talk to Boss Xu, "Brother, stop talking. I know what to do and won't embarrass you. You don't have to worry about your parents. Dad will be here soon.
I told my father that if I die, you can’t waste money like this if you have money, let alone if you don’t have money. You can listen to me and do what Yuan asked me to do, brother, I am already very grateful."
"Second brother, that's not what I meant..."
"I know, brother, there is nothing you can do. It's not that you don't want to cure me. Okay, let's not talk anymore. I'm tired. Brother, please let me rest for a while."
"Okay, you have a good rest."
At this moment, Erya's voice came from outside the door, "Uncle, I asked you to go to the bedroom. I have something to say."
Xu Darong was worried about the awkward atmosphere with Xu Laoer. Hearing this, he immediately got up and left.
***
In the upper room, Mrs. Xu Zhang sat on the Kang, while Xu Jiaojiao stood beside her and massaged her.
Standing next to him are Luo Shi, Yao Shi and Daya.
When Erya led Xu Darong into the house, she saw Mrs. Yao looking anxious and winking at him.
There was also Daya who held onto Mrs. Yao's hand tightly and stared at Mr. Xu Zhang with a guarded face, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Xu Darong's heart tightened, feeling that something might have happened. Otherwise, Yao had always been so calm, so why did he look like this?
And Da Ya, how many times have you told her? You have to be calm, don’t be overjoyed, and be respectful to your elders. Even if it’s just a show, you have to do it...
Xu Darong glanced at Daya with a displeased expression, then withdrew his gaze, and first made a bow in the direction of Mrs. Xu Zhang.
"Mom, why did you call your son here to tell him something?"
Mrs. Xu Zhang said, "It's nothing important. I just want you to have a good talk with your father. Your father has great expectations for you. In your father's heart, you, the eldest son, are the most promising and the most promising."
Yes, his lifelong hope is on you, hoping that you can shoulder the burden of our old Xu family and lead everyone in our old Xu family to live a good life..."
Xu Darong lowered his head and said, "My son has failed his parents' expectations. My son is terrified."
"I'm not blaming you, but I'm afraid your dad feels bad. Nothing happened at home before, and everything is pretty normal. Although life is difficult, he doesn't usually reach out to you or anything. Your dad also considers that it's not easy for you to live in the county.
, and let us try our best not to hold you back in big or small matters, so that you can teach with peace of mind, study by the way, and maybe there is hope of passing the exam. There is really nothing we can do this time. If something happens to the second child, the family will be in trouble.
It looks like it's collapsed. Your fourth brother has never studied in any school. He needs to be educated but has no knowledge. He has been in poor health since he was a child. He is weak and can't handle heavy work and look down on light work. He is a person with no ability, so naturally he can't be counted on. Old man
The third is having an even harder time. To be honest, we didn’t even notify the third child because we were afraid that he would not be a good person at home. The family doesn’t know where the fifth child is now, and they can’t even count on him. Except you.
, your father and I really had no choice but to count on you, but you gave up the burden... Not to mention your father, even me, my heart is filled with despair."
Xu Zhang said this in a calm tone, but the accusation was quite obvious both inside and outside the words.
Regarding this topic, we talked about it during the meal. Xu Darong already had a countermeasure. Anyway, just be shameless and pretend to be scared.
You survived the first time, are you afraid of the second time?
Xu Darong's head hung lower, "It's not that my son doesn't want to shoulder the burden, but it's really impossible for him to do it."
When the two of them were talking, the room was very quiet, and no one else interrupted.
Xu Chengfeng wanted to open his mouth several times but endured it.
Mrs. Xu Zhang raised her hand and wiped the non-existent tears with a handkerchief, "I also know that I am not your biological mother, I am just your father's second wife. Your biological mother died in childbirth, but when I came in, You are only a little over two years old, and I love you as my own son, or even better. You know that our old Xu family is just a humble family. Our ancestors were all poor people in the mountains, and we didn’t have much property. It’s still you. My father is hard-working and works around, so he has a better life than other families. He has some money left over, but not much. The family can only support one person to study. Your second brother is my biological son, and he is only more than three years younger than you. Yes, he was smart when he was a child, but after discussing with your father, I still sent you to study. If I were like that kind of stepmother, it would be great if I didn’t waste your time, and why I sent you to study? For this reason, I Mrs. Xu Zhang treats you well, right?"
When Xu Darong heard this, he had a vague premonition in his heart.
Xu Zhang's homely way of talking is exactly the same as what he just said to Xu Laoer.
Let’s talk about feelings first, then business matters.
It's definitely not a good thing if this continues.
Xu Darong quickly lifted up his robe and knelt down in front of Mrs. Xu Zhang, "Mom, it is better to cultivate kindness than to give birth to kindness. In my son's heart, you are closer than my own mother! My son can be admitted as a scholar in this life, and it must be your contribution, mother." For the first time, to be honest, my son has basically no impression of his biological mother. He only recognizes you as his mother. He will definitely be filial to his mother and let his parents live a good life in the future..."
"It's hard for you to have such intentions, and it's not a waste of our fate as mother and son in this life. This time, something happened to your second brother, and it can't be cured. The Yuan family is also gone, and life at home is not easy. Your father and I My body is getting worse day by day, especially after this sadness. I feel like nothing is right. I feel very tired. It’s thanks to your sister holding me down every day. Otherwise, I don’t know what I can do. How many days to live?" Mrs. Xu Zhang rubbed her old waist and said weakly.
