"Can I call your family now?" The village chief asked Lu Youxi helplessly, "Such a big thing cannot be left untold to your family."
Although I know that the Lu family is somewhat patriarchal, but if the child is injured, the family will not just sit there and do nothing.
Lu Youxi was waiting for the driver to leave before letting his family know. At this moment, he nodded and said to the village chief gratefully, "Thank you, uncle. Please tell my family."
"Okay." The village chief finally breathed a sigh of relief. When he took his cell phone and went out to call the Lu family, he was still thinking that Lu Youxi was a girl with her own ideas.
Lu Youxue sat beside the bed and looked at Lu Youxi, his eyes red and hesitant to speak.
After a long while, he called out, "Sister, you..."
Unexpectedly, before she could finish her words, Lu Youxi pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
Lu Youxi hugged Lu Youxue tenderly, and tears as big as beans rolled down Lu Youxue's ears and neck.
Lu Youxue felt the warmth on his neck turn to a damp coolness, and heard Lu Youxi say, "Luckily you're okay, and fortunately we made it in time."
This time he finally made it in time, and Lu Youxue would no longer be lame.
Lu Youxi's nerves had been tense before, and only now did he relax.
She hugged Lu Youxue for a while before letting him go.
Lu Youxue wiped the tears from his face and said, "I thought... you didn't like me."
"You are my brother! How can I not like you?" Lu Youxi's eyes were red, and he was crying and laughing.
Lu Youxue pursed his lips. He always thought that Lu Youxi didn't like him.
He knew that his grandparents favored boys over girls, and it was difficult for his parents to disobey them on the surface, so he could only be nice to Lu Youxi secretly.
But the good things that come from being secret are definitely limited, as there are many things that he has that Lu Youxi doesn't have.
So he also wanted to secretly share his things with Lu Youxi.
But Lu Youxi didn't want that. She was heartbroken by her family and started to hate herself.
After a long time, he knew that Lu Youxi hated him, so he stopped getting close to her.
Only now did I realize that Lu Youxi had always liked him.
No matter what, he is her younger brother, and she still treats him well in her heart.
Lu Youxue thought, in fact, if he were Lu Youxi, he would hate himself just as much.
"Sister, thank you." Thank you for saving me.
"Sister, I'm sorry." I hurt you.
Lu Youxi hugged Lu Youxue again and sniffed, "I was wrong before, and I'm sorry for you."
Lu Youxue's ears turned red from being hugged by Lu Youxi. He felt a little embarrassed. In order to hide his embarrassment, he changed the subject dryly, "Sister, why didn't you let Hu Zi and the village chief tell our family before?"
Lu Youxi let go of Lu Youxue and said to him, "When I came out to look for you, my second uncle and second aunt were asking my grandparents for money to pay for my cousin's tuition and living expenses."
Lu Youxue pursed his lips and said in a muffled voice: "No matter what grandpa and grandma ask for, it's still our family that pays in the end."
This was also the reason why she dared to delay and did not tell her family about her car accident right away.
For the time being, there is no need to worry that the money will be taken away by Lu Zhen’s family immediately.
Besides, there is not that much cash at home. I have to go to a credit union to withdraw it, which takes time.
Lu Youxi said, glancing towards the door.
There was a figure at the door, hiding outside.
Just now she caught a glimpse of the corner of the clothes of the person outside the door, and judging from the color, it should be the village chief who came back after making a phone call.
I guess he didn't come in because he heard what she said.
Coincidentally, Lu Youxi also hoped that the village chief could hear what she said next.
"The reason why I didn't let my family know about my car accident right away was to prevent them from knowing that my medical expenses had been reimbursed by the driver. I have to wait until the driver leaves before telling my family." Lu Youxi ignored the village chief outside the door and instructed Lu Youxue, "Someone will come to my house later. No matter who comes, don't let my family know that my medical expenses have been reimbursed by the driver, including my parents. You can't let them know. Just say that I need treatment and my family has no money to give to my cousin."
In the previous life, it was because the money was given to Lu Youbang that the family had no money to provide Lu Youxue with medical treatment.
Although Lu Zhenguo later raised enough money, the treatment had already been delayed, and Lu Youxue's life was delayed.
Fortunately, such a thing will never happen again in this life.
"Okay!" Lu Youxue nodded. Now he would listen to whatever Lu Youxi said.
The village chief came in after seeing that Lu Youxi seemed to have finished speaking.
But in the end, I couldn't pretend that I didn't hear it, and I couldn't help but say, "Youxi, I heard everything you said to Youxue just now."
Lu Youxi looked at the village chief and said nothing.
The village chief saw this and said, "Yuki, this is your family's affair, but I have to say that you can't be so petty. We are all family, shouldn't we help each other? Besides, Youbang is the only college student in our village, and he is not studying in an ordinary university, but the best university in our country, Kyoto University."
"With talents like Youbang, wouldn't any family do their best to support him? If Youbang does well, your family will surely do well as well." The village chief kindly advised, "You have to take a long-term view."
Lu Youxi knew that the village chief had good intentions, but he didn't know that in his previous life, his family had given everything for Lu Youbang.
But what about in the end?
Even Lu Youbang's biological parents did not receive any care and stayed in Hexing Village all their lives.
On the contrary, Lu Zhenguo's family was brought into the city by Lu Youxi, but they did not receive any care from Lu Youbang.
"Village chief, I know you are saying this for my own good." Lu Youxi first complimented the village chief.
Sure enough, the village chief smiled, obviously pleased that Lu Youxi understood that he had good intentions.
"But you don't know that our family has emptied out all our savings for our cousin. And we gave him all the tuition for his four years of college. When my second uncle came to ask for money, he also said that he would not ask for money again after paying it once, and he knew that our family really had no money." Lu Youxi said, "We have already paid him four years of tuition, but I didn't expect that my second uncle would come to us again today to ask for tuition."
"It's true that family members help each other, but my cousin is my second uncle's biological son. My second uncle doesn't pay for it himself, but he always asks us for money, but we don't have any money." Lu Youxi sighed, "Besides, I haven't told anyone about this, not even my family. I told you because you are a good and sensible person, the village chief."
