Finally, it was Lu Hongjun who spoke up: "Jiandang will go and call your eldest brother back and ask him to bring some money to deal with the emergency.
And you two don't need to go to school anymore. Ask your mother to get you some matchboxes to make at home. I'll see if I can find you two some temporary jobs or something."
Although he promised that person that he would raise them and send them to school, that person must be dead after not showing up for so many years.
Lu Hongjun looked at the faces of Lu Jiandang and Lu Jianmin, which overlapped with the man in his memory. He still remembered the rainy night fifteen years ago when he went out for a drink and was walking back.
He was so drunk that he didn't know which haystack he had fallen into. When he woke up, there was a man sitting next to him. Seeing that he was awake, he lowered his voice and said:
"Your name is Lu Hongjun, right? You are from Xiaoqiaotun. I know your family situation. You have a younger brother who is serving in the army."
Lu Hongjun was confused at the time and asked stupidly, "Who are you? How do you know all this?"
The man continued, "Of course I have investigated your family. Here is one thousand yuan. You help me take care of these two children for three years. I will arrange a job for you and your wife in the city, and then send you one hundred every month. What do you think?"
Lu Hongjun didn't know there was such a good thing in the world, so he agreed:
"Okay, I agree. But why did you choose me?"
The man said, "Because of Luye."
After that, he handed the money and the child to Lu Hongjun, and before leaving, he added:
"Remember, these two children are your own from now on. If you dare to treat them badly, you will die a miserable death! Pack up your things today and go to the city. Rent a house and live there. I'll come find you in a couple of days."
Lu Hongjun nodded rapidly, watched the man leave, and then fell into deep thought as he looked at the two boys in his arms.
After a long while, when it was just dawn, he tiptoed back home with the child in his arms. He excitedly woke up Song Chunfen who was lying in bed, and showed her the child and the money.
While packing up, he told her what happened and finally instructed:
"You stay home and look after the kids. I'm going to go into the city and find a house. We're never going to come back to this damn place again."
Song Chunfen held two "big pies" in her arms for a long time without coming back to her senses. Finally, Lu Hongjun pushed her and she asked:
"He said he knew the second brother?"
Lu Hongjun nodded: "I think he should be a soldier, or a high-ranking official. Anyway, he is someone we can't afford to offend. He just has to raise a child, and he has two jobs, and he can earn 100 yuan a month. Where can you find such a good thing?"
Song Chunfen was also very happy at this time: "Yes. Dad, you are more capable, just leave the child to me!" Isn't this better than farming at home every day?
Lu Hongjun nodded, packed up his things, and walked towards the city without even having breakfast. After wandering around for a whole morning, he finally found a house for rent. That afternoon, he hired a ox cart and moved into the city with his family.
Two days later, the man showed up. Lu Hongjun didn't know how he found him, but he gave him a letter of introduction, which was a formal job at the steel plant.
Seeing that the man kept his word, Lu Hongjun and his wife took better care of the two children and named them Jiandang and Jianmin.
Three years passed like this, and just when Lu Hongjun was feeling sorry that his God of Wealth was leaving, he received a letter.
The general content of the letter was that for some reasons the child could not be taken care of temporarily, and asked them to help take care of him for a while. Attached to the letter was a job offer in a textile factory, which was obviously for Song Chunfen.
The couple was very happy to see the letter and the job offer, so they sent their two children and Lu Xiaoxiao to the red education class, and then the couple began their journey of working...
After Lu Ye died, the couple came out and took over Lu Wensheng and their big house. In the past few years, the couple's appetite has grown bigger and bigger, so naturally they don't care about Lu Ye's pension.
She was also reluctant to let Lu Xiaoxiao do housework, so she kept enslaving Lu Wensheng.
Because of the mysterious man, they didn't dare to treat Lu Jiandang and Lu Jianmin badly. After all, these two were real gods of wealth.
A few years passed like this, until one day when Lu Hongjun went to the post office to get the remittance slip, he found that it was not there. He became a little impatient as he had not had any money deposited into his account for several months.
Gradually, he began to treat the two brothers coldly. Even though he was cold to them, he did not dare to treat them harshly. After all, as long as he gave them food to eat and kept them from starving to death, it was enough.
The two brothers were not very close to them and were rather silent at home. Perhaps it was because they had no blood relationship, so they got along with them in a distant way.
And now, the man hasn't paid for more than two years. Why should he still support these two kids? And send them to school? They are so happy!
Lu Jiandang clenched his fist and replied, "We have both signed up to join the army and will leave in a few days. There is no need to trouble you to find jobs for us."
Lu Hongjun was still reminiscing about the past, and had not yet come to his senses after hearing Lu Jiandang's words. He asked in confusion: "What? What did you just say?"
Lu Jiandang repeated: "I said, Jianmin and I have signed up for military service and will leave in a few days."
After that, he dragged Lu Jianmin to find Lu Jianguo. He didn't want to stay in this house for a second. He didn't know why, but he felt particularly depressed.
After leaving the yard, Lu Jianmin asked excitedly with little stars in his eyes: "Brother, are we really going to join the army?"
Lu Jiandang replied: "Yes, I have already registered and will leave in a few days."
After receiving a definite answer, Lu Jianmin jumped up and down in joy: "Brother, why didn't you discuss such an important matter with me?"
Lu Jiandang rolled his eyes at him and said, "What am I discussing with you? How can you not agree?"
His brother is a fool. He doesn't know if he ate his brain when he was in the belly...
Thinking about it, I feel guilty...
When the two of them walked to the steel plant, they just happened to catch up with the workers getting off work. After waiting at the door for a while, they soon saw Lu Jianguo coming out in work clothes. They hurriedly ran up to him and said, "Brother, Dad asked you to go back."
In fact, Lu Jianguo had seen the two people at the door from a distance. He was already able to remember them when they came to his house. He only knew that his family had become rich since the day his father brought these two people home from outside.
So he knew from a young age that the two were not relatives, and he always kept a distance from them in his heart. He only knew that they could bring endless money to the family, so he just had to be nice to them on the surface.
But I heard from my dad that the child support has also stopped in the past two years...
