Chapter 189 A surprise is achieved
In fact, Li Yu was in a trance, thinking about what Tao Huayu said when he sent him to the gate of the community: "Your father probably hasn't told you something yet."
What could his father be hiding from him? Li Yuyu couldn't figure it out.
What's more, this matter is actually related to his decision whether to accept a job offer from abroad. Li Yu is even more confused.
He had been thinking about this matter in his mind, and his conversation with Lao Li from the moment he entered the door was completely a subconscious reaction.
It wasn't until Lao Li asked him that he seemed to come to his senses.
"Dad," Li Yu decided not to think about it for the time being, "I do have something to tell you."
"You go ahead." Old Li even put down his chopsticks, as if he was listening attentively.
Old Li listened to what Li Yu said, his expression changed several times, but all of them were different degrees of joy, and finally his mouth corners were almost grinning to his ears: "Oh, my son is excellent!"
Old Li felt more and more that it was the right thing to do to bring Li Yu over when he was renovating Liu Wangxue's courtyard.
Li Yu not only made new friends, but also changed as a person, and even started to have good career luck.
Old Li patted his thighs with both hands, rubbed them, and thought, thanks to Brother Liu's daughter, friends help friends, one by one, and his son has become the biggest beneficiary.
When Liu Nanshan comes back, he will definitely treat everyone to a good drink.
"Dad——" Li Yu shouted, "What are you thinking about?"
"Of course I'm thinking about my son's bright future." Old Li's face was almost frozen with laughter, but he couldn't stop. "By the way, you haven't applied for a passport yet, so I'll take a day off tomorrow and take you to get your passport first, and then we'll check how to apply for a visa."
"ah?"
"What?" Old Li's expression changed in an instant. How could he not know what kind of person his son was? "Don't tell me that you are worried about this or that and plan not to go. I tell you, you have to go, no discussion!"
"ah--"
Li Yu was stunned, thinking inappropriately that it was a pity that his father didn't perform face-changing in Sichuan Opera.
Old Li was serious for only three seconds before a look of joy appeared on his face. He stood up, touched Li Yu's head, then went back to his room and got out a passbook.
"Dad has something I haven't told you yet." Old Li handed the passbook to Li Yu, "Take a look first."
Li Yu held the book in his hand, and his eyes widened as he turned the pages. When he reached the last page, he even suspected that he was hallucinating. How could this light little notebook be so hot?
"Dad, why do you have so much money?"
"I saved it up," Old Li ate the food calmly, but his eyes were full of love when he looked at Li Yu, "It's all for you."
"For me?!"
"Ah, for your study abroad."
"Study abroad?!" Li Yu's voice rose a pitch. He stood up suddenly and moved back with the chair. The sound of friction with the floor and his heartbeat rushed straight to his brain.
Mr. Li felt that his son's performance was what he had expected, and it was a pleasant surprise!
Old Li stretched out his hand, pressed it down, and motioned his son to sit down: "Don't get excited, don't get excited, sit down, and let's talk slowly."
Li Yu pulled the chair back and sat down, and asked: "So, Brother Huayu said that you didn't tell me something, that is, you planned to send me to study abroad?"
Li Yu looked at Lao Li's expression and knew that he was not joking: "Dad, I never said I wanted to study abroad." No, he had never thought about studying abroad at all.
"Listen to me first," Lao Li put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "You were too hasty in choosing your major after the college entrance examination. It's also my fault that I didn't pay much attention to your studies..."
"Dad, what are you talking about?"
In fact, Mr. Li has always felt guilty towards his son.
Lao Li is an optimist who doesn't have much pursuit in life. As long as he has enough food and clothes and everything goes well, that's enough.
When he was in his teens, he learned bricklaying from a master from the same village. After he became an apprentice, he was helped by his master to find jobs. Later, when his master died unexpectedly, he was the one who took care of his funeral.
After the matter was settled, he followed the people in the same village to work outside, and slowly saved some money to build a house for his family. When he went home for the Spring Festival the next year, someone introduced him to a partner, and he got married and had children.
The girl was from a neighboring village. She graduated from high school but did not get into college. Her family asked someone to find her a job in town.
At that time, many people said that Lao Li was marrying above his station.
The two did live a happy and fulfilling life after marriage - at least that's what Old Li thought. But after Li Yu was born, everything slowly began to change.
She seemed to be upset about failing the college entrance examination, so she blamed Li Yu for her unfulfilled life goal.
Not only do they hope Li Yu can get into university, but also expect him to be admitted to a top domestic university.
Since Li Yu started kindergarten, he has been strictly required in all aspects.
In fact, there was no kindergarten in the village at that time, and few parents were aware of sending their children to kindergarten.
She enrolled little Li Yu in the only kindergarten in the town, and sent him there when she went to work every day and picked him up when she got off work.
Li Yu also attended primary school in the town.
No matter whether it is a major or minor exam, 98 points is equal to failing, and you will be punished to stand when you go home; you cannot make friends with students with poor grades, and anyone with a lower test score than Li Yu is considered to have poor grades;
No snacks, no TV, no extracurricular reading;
In addition to completing the homework assigned by the teacher every day, I also have to do extra homework assigned by her; I have to write a diary every day to practice my writing skills; I have to wear my clothes cleanly the same way I wear them out, otherwise I will be scolded...
There are countless examples like this.
Mr. Li was also a first-time father and thought she was too strict. However, his son behaved very well and did not express any discomfort, so he did not take it too seriously.
In addition, the construction team he worked for would take a long time to come back if the work he took was far from home. Every time he came back, his son would hug him and call him "Dad" happily, and then with her permission, Lao Li would take the child out to play happily for a day.
When Li Yusheng was in the fourth grade of elementary school, she told Lao Li about her plan to send her son to junior high school in the city. She asked Lao Li to buy a house in the city on the grounds that the child was too young and adults had to go with him to take care of him.
She even took a fancy to a residential community, a newly opened real estate project in the district where the city’s No. 1 Middle School is located.
Old Li patiently explained to her: "You know our family's financial situation. All our money combined is not enough to buy that one toilet."
She didn't listen and said that she could borrow it and even get a loan.
After a few words, Lao Li got a little angry: "Don't you have to pay back the borrowed money? Don't you have to pay back the loan? With my salary and yours combined, it's so little that it will take forever to pay it back!"
That was the first quarrel that broke out in this family.
Little Li Yu was so scared that he covered himself with the quilt, tears streaming down his face.
About "She"
The "she" here has no name, because "she" is stereotyped. I personally think that "she" can be "he" or all parents who are self-centered in their demands on their children.
These chapters are about Xiaoyu's growth experience. It was very painful for me to write them. I deleted some of them after thinking about them/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~ I hope every child can grow up in love. If not, they should learn to love themselves! (End of this chapter)
