Chapter 232 Twitching
Cheng Yaozu bit his lower lip, showing a conflicted and hesitant expression.
He knew very well that as long as he decided to leave this home, his grandmother and mother would cry until they fainted.
But...does he have to stay here forever?
"Good boy, think it through. No matter how your life goes, we will support you and help you." Liu Kexin said softly when she saw his pitiful face.
This kid still has some conscience.
The most important thing is that Cheng Er’s family will not watch the child they raised starve to death outside.
He always has a way out.
"I'm going to die now!" Old Mrs. Cheng glared at Liu Kexin and ran towards the kitchen in a hurry. Her suicidal look made people tremble with fear.
Old Master Cheng finally came out. He held his pipe in one hand and hit his wife hard on the head twice. His eyes were as cold as ice. "How long are you going to keep messing around?"
After Mrs. Cheng calmed down, Mr. Cheng took out the ticket from his pocket and put it in Liu Kexin's hand.
"Girl, you are a good and responsible teacher, but we are old and we just want our child to be safe and by our side. That's all we need."
"He'll work hard in the future, and he'll have something to eat no matter what. Just give us two old men some face and let our family go."
Compared to the unreasonable Cheng Da's wife and Cheng Lao Madam, the old man's words came from the heart and were sincere, which made the listeners feel a little softer in their hearts.
This was the first time Liu Kexin faced such a scene. She didn't know where to put her hands and feet, and subconsciously looked at the backbone.
"You are the teacher of the school. What's the big deal about looking at outsiders? Does she decide the school affairs?" Old Master Cheng emphasized, and he was better at picking on the weak than anyone else.
Chen Zhu looked at the village chief with a gloomy look: "Village chief, this matter...shouldn't it be handled by you?"
According to current policies, literacy is prevalent and children must be able to read and write.
However, rules are dead, but people are alive. If someone really turns a blind eye, then everyone can only live in confusion.
"Sir, I still want to go to school." Cheng Yaozu answered before anyone else. His eyes were unusually determined, and all his hesitations were gone. "I want to be a cultural soldier."
Literacy is prevalent, which means that children of his age can all read. If he knows nothing, he will naturally be inferior to these children!
"If your goal is to join the army, then you must go to college. That would be the most convenient way." Chen Zhuyi said lightly from the side.
Science and technology are the foundation of a country's development. Cultural soldiers are not only required to read and write, but also to understand some specialized things to ensure a bright future.
Cheng Yaozu widened his eyes and felt that going to college was a very distant thing for him.
"Son, if you leave, what will I do?"
Cheng Da's wife rushed over as if her son had died, throwing a tantrum and rolling on the ground. Even if it meant making a huge fuss, she wanted to keep her son.
"Mom, you will always be my mom. I won't forget you, and I won't stay at my second uncle's house and not come back like before. I've figured it out."
Cheng Yaozu rarely shows some responsibility as an adult man, and is even willing to give up Cheng Er's family to be his own parents.
"I was born by you. Let's make amends to my second uncle and his family in the future. Stop messing around. My second brother and I will study hard, and our family's life will definitely get better and better."
These words were too mature. Even Chen Zhuyi looked at him in surprise, wondering, "Have you figured it out?"
Cheng Yaozu had always been a confused man before, but now he is sober and alarmingly clear-headed.
"Of course, Teacher Shen, Teacher Liu, you are all doing this for my own good, but my mom and grandma also need a grandson at home." Cheng Yaozu's tone still sounded a little lonely at this moment.
Like a gift being sent back.
He walked to Cheng Da's wife and tugged at her sleeve: "Mom, I won't leave, but you must support my studies to compensate my second brother."
When Cheng Er's family heard the news and rushed over, they fell silent for a moment.
They really didn't expect that one day they would be involved with this group of people in their hometown. It is difficult to change one's nature, but it is easy to change the country. How could these people let their family go easily?
"Impossible." Old Mrs. Cheng was so angry when she thought of the second son's family.
When they were at home, neither of them paid much attention to her, an old woman.
He didn't do much but talked a lot. He hid the little money he had for himself and was unwilling to give it to the public. Now, seeing the second son's family living a prosperous life, the old lady almost gritted her teeth when she thought about it.
"Then just pretend that you don't have a grandson like me. I'm the one who let you down." Cheng Yaozu said bluntly and left.
He was so fat now that the fat on his body shook with every step he took.
"You guys deserve to die! You actually come to our house to sow discord!" Cheng Da's wife didn't think there was anything wrong with what her mother said. She kept pushing all the responsibility onto others.
The village chief frowned and looked worried, as if he was paying special attention to this farce, but there was an obvious smile in his eyes. He rolled his eyes at Chen Zhu, and there was a hint of pride in his attitude.
Without him as the village chief, even if Chen Zhuyi is eloquent, he won't be able to get things done!
"Yaozu, I carried you for ten months, but I didn't expect you to be so unreliable. Everything we did was for you!"
Cheng Da's wife kept nagging and saying these moral kidnapping words.
Chen Zhu curled his lips in disgust, then pulled Liu Kexin who wanted to talk, and looked at Cheng Er's wife who was standing not far away.
This kind of family matter should be discussed clearly among the family members.
"Yaozu, I know you have good intentions, but... you'd better live with our family. Some people are ungrateful and won't appreciate your kindness no matter how good you are to them."
Cheng Er's wife snorted and asked her son to pull Cheng Yaozu over. Seeing how abnormally fat he was, she showed a hint of confusion.
Even though he had someone to back him up, Cheng Yaozu felt as if his feet weighed a thousand pounds, and he didn't dare to take a single step forward. He pursed his lips and was about to say something, but an abnormal paleness appeared on his face.
Cheng Putao had just pulled her brother when she saw Cheng Yaozu fall heavily to the ground, his body twitching from time to time. Something was very wrong.
"Son! You are such a jinx! You are the one who killed my son!" Cheng Da's wife screamed and slapped Cheng Putao on the face. Then she rushed over and shook Cheng Yaozu violently, tears streaming down her face.
