Chapter 378 If it weren't so mediocre



After Ruan Ruan left, the two old men, regardless of whether it was dark or not, got up, took their guards, and drove off to find their leader.

This matter is extremely important. Even though there are still three months left, there are still many things to deal with in the capital. In Tangcheng, when the earthquake struck, there are issues such as the resettlement and evacuation of the people, as well as the supply of materials and food. All of these need to be considered.

That night, the two old men didn't get home until after 10 p.m.

The next day, early in the morning, a document was sent directly from there to the military region and government where Tangcheng was located.

On the third day, starting from this day, every commune where Tangcheng was located began to build shelters in the suburbs.

Of course, Ruan Ruan didn't pay attention to the changes in Tangcheng. Since she figured out the relationship between the Zhao family, the Xu family and the Poisonous Woman, Ruan Ruan no longer went to sleep on time as usual. Instead, she waited for Huo Haojie and the kitten to come back and explain the day's events to her.

The sisters Luo Yufeng and Luo Yufang woke up after lunch. The Zhao and Xu families, who were waiting in the ward, were overjoyed to see them awake.

"Mom, Auntie, you're finally awake! That's wonderful!"

"Mom, Aunt, you're awake! That's wonderful!"

When Xu Youwei and Zhao Xingzhong saw that their mother had woken up, they were both happy to stand up from their stools and quickly went to their side.

"What happened to us?" After waking up, Luo Yufeng first heard her son's excited voice, then looked at their current surroundings and asked in confusion, "We just took a nap, how did we end up in the hospital?"

“Mom, you've been sleeping since last night. This morning, when it was time for breakfast, I saw that you and Dad hadn't woken up, so I went to call you, but no matter how we called, you just wouldn't wake up. We were so worried, so we brought you to the hospital. The doctor's examination results showed that you've been overworked lately, and the anger overwhelmed you, causing a problem with your bodily functions, which is why you're like this.”

Xu Youwei explained to them why they were at the hospital: "Mom, I'm sorry, we're useless. You and Dad have to worry about everything. If we were more capable, you wouldn't have to..."

From a young age, Xu Youwei was told that he would inherit the Xu family business when he grew up, and the Xu family had always raised him according to the standards of an heir. However, whether he was in school or studying at home, he always showed only mediocre abilities.

Especially at school, the Ruan brothers, Ruan Chuanji and Ruan Jia, the Gu brothers, Gu Wenpeng and Gu Wenpeng, and the Lan brothers all consistently achieved top grades, constantly vying with each other. In contrast, the Xu brothers and the Zhao brothers consistently achieved average grades.

In addition, everyone is in the same circle. Ruan Chuanji and his friends have been close since childhood, and their families are related. So no matter what they do, they are always together. Xu Youwei and his friends have never been able to fit in. Whenever the aristocratic families have an opportunity, they will compare them. Of course, Ruan Chuanji and his friends get all the good things. On the other hand, everyone describes Xu Youwei and his brothers as having mediocre talent.

Gradually, they resigned themselves to their fate. However, their parents, after hearing such comments, would never say anything in front of others, but would constantly mention at home that they believed their brains were no less capable than those old men from the Ruan, Gu, Su, and Lan families, so why were their children so much worse than theirs? Not only that, they also always thought it was because their supervision was insufficient. Every time their children came home from school, they would take turns supervising their studies, and when they got angry, they would use a ruler. If they made a mistake, they would get a whack on the palm of their hand with the ruler.

At that time, they would have a stress reaction just hearing the names of Ruan Chuanji and Gu Wenpeng.

As time went by, they grew up and could only accept their mediocrity.

However, when he learned that Luo Yufeng had gone to the Gu family to propose marriage, wanting Xu Youwei to marry Gu Wenzhen, Xu Youwei was actually resistant. He accepted his mediocrity, but he also had his pride. Since childhood, he had always been used to highlight the children of the Ruan and Gu families, and he had never been able to remove the thorn in his heart. He hated Ruan Chuanji and Gu Wenpeng.

Now they want him to marry his enemy's sister? He just can't do it. Besides, he's witnessed firsthand how ruthless Gu Wenpeng and his gang are. He knows what kind of person he is. If he really marries Gu Wenzhen, his life with her will be a complete mess. Given the doting brother Gu Wenpeng's personality, he'll definitely suffer the consequences.

He was still thinking about how to stop the marriage when he received the news that the Gu family had refused. He should have been happy, but when he actually heard it, his heart still ached.

I can't describe the feeling.

After hearing the news of Ruan Chuanji and Gu Wenzhen's engagement, Luo Yufeng, in order to vent her anger, quickly arranged for him to marry Song Ying of the Song family.

His marriage to Song Ying, like him, was uneventful and uneventful.

As he got older, he became more accepting of life, but now, because of his mediocrity, his elderly mother and father still had to worry about the family. Xu Youwei felt that he had let his parents down.

"Youwei, this is not your fault. Get up now, I have something to ask you." Hearing her son say that he felt guilty, Luo Yufeng felt bad too. Who wouldn't want a child who can shoulder heavy responsibilities? But alas, they didn't have that blessing.

"Mother, what do you want to ask?" Xu Youwei wiped away his tears, straightened up, and tidied his clothes before asking after hearing Luo Yufang's words.
