He raised his head weakly and looked at Xia Shige, a thin layer of tears in his big eyes, and he looked a little helpless.
Sun Yuegui on the side also said: "Yes, Ziqi. You knew your father gambled, and you didn't stop him, but how could you gamble with him! You are a student, you are an educated person, didn't the school teach you the harm of gambling?"
Xia Ziqi couldn't help shedding tears when he heard this. With deep regret in his eyes, he knelt down in front of Xia Shige and Sun Yuegui.
The teenager's face was full of regret. He cried and said, "Cousin, aunt, I was wrong! I shouldn't have gambled with my dad. I promise, I will never gamble again!"
Xia Ziqi now really knows that he was wrong and he really regrets it. If he is given another chance, he will definitely not follow his father to gamble, and he will definitely stop his father from gambling!
Thinking back to what happened yesterday, Xia Ziqi felt as if he was possessed by an evil spirit.
He didn't know why he got so carried away at that time. He stayed in 1105 with his father for a whole day. They gambled so hard that they not only lost the last box of coal, but also owed a lot of supplies until they could no longer recover...
Thinking of this, Xia Ziqi felt his heart ache! If they hadn't gambled, they would still have a lot of supplies, enough to survive this winter, and they would never be like this, with nothing and heavy debts.
Seeing the regret in Xia Ziqi's eyes, Xia Shige said in a deep voice: "Xia Ziqi, if I remember correctly, you are now 16 years old. You should be responsible for what you have done..."
After hearing what Xia Shige said, Xia Ziqi cried even louder.
He threw himself at Xia Shige's feet, buried his head deeply in the floor, and cried bitterly, "Cousin, I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! I swear, I will never gamble again! I will never touch these harmful things again in my life!"
Looking at the scene in front of her, Sun Yuegui felt a little dazed.
She looked at Xia Ziqi, who was kneeling in front of her and crying bitterly, and felt that his figure gradually overlapped with Xia Guozhang...
Xia Guozhang was like this before, kneeling on the floor and crying bitterly, constantly confessing, and making all kinds of promises to this family...
The little bit of sympathy that had just risen in Sun Yuegui's heart disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Seeing Xia Ziqi's regretful look, Xia Shige said in a deep voice: "Ziqi, aunt, we can't help you pay off the debt owed by Third Uncle, and we don't have that much supplies here."
Xia Shige lied because she knew that she should never help a gambler pay off his gambling debts - because this was a bottomless pit!
If she helped Xia Guozhang pay back two hundred kilograms of rice, ten boxes of sausages and one hundred kilograms of coal today, then her third uncle would owe her two thousand kilograms of rice, ten boxes of sausages and one thousand kilograms of coal tomorrow!
Once gamblers start gambling, it’s no joke!
Hearing Xia Shige say this, Ruan Jiayu's eyes suddenly became extremely desperate.
But the next second, Xia Shige continued: "But I can give you two choices now."
"The first option is, aunt, you take Ziqi and sever your relationship with Uncle San. From now on, don't worry about Uncle San. We will give you some mattresses, and you two can take temporary shelter on the 23rd floor."
"There is food and charcoal in the temporary shelter, which is enough for you to get through the winter. When the snowstorm is over, I can help you find a job so that you can support yourself."
"The first choice is, I will give you 100 kilograms of rice and 100 kilograms of coal, but from now on we will sever our relationship. No matter what happens to you, it has nothing to do with us. We will just treat you as strangers."
"It's up to you to decide which one to choose."
