Shu Guobing was released from prison early, and Shu Lu ran away alone, leaving her parents behind. Shu Guobing and his wife called the police to look for him, but the police criticized them harshly, asking them why they didn't rely on their 16-year-old daughter to work and support them when they had hands and feet.
Wen Ying learned about this big drama after New Year's Day.
"Shulu ran away?"
"I ran away and bought a train ticket to the Magic City!"
Wen Dongrong looked strange when he said this.
Lao Wen, who works in an office, has never been a fan of feudal superstitions or fate. If he had to follow fate, he should be farming in the countryside instead of sitting in an office.
Believe it or not, the Wen family has been continuously deepening its ties with the Magic City.
Wen Ying went to Shanghai to participate in the New Concept Competition. Chen Ru resumed contact with her old Shanghai classmate Wu Chunqin. Wen Ying intended to go to Shanghai to study at university. Her family took out a loan to buy a house in Shanghai. Now even Shu Lu ran away to Shanghai... There seemed to be some mysterious connection.
Wen Dongrong was puzzled: "There are so many places in the country, why did she choose to go to Shanghai instead of anywhere else..."
"Just go."
Wen Dongrong didn’t know, but Wen Ying could probably guess the reason.
The Magic City must be special to Shulu, because Zhao Dong is there!
Wen Ying felt that this was not a coincidence. Shu Lu had dropped out of school for some time. She didn't leave earlier or later, but left as soon as Shu Guobing was released from prison.
"Dad, how did you know? Could it be that my aunt came to see you?"
Wen Dongrong was anxious: "Don't talk nonsense, I have no contact with your aunt's family now. It was Shulu who ran away and they wanted to chase her to the Magic City and asked your grandma to borrow money for the trip. Your grandma knew about it first!"
Lao Wen, who passed the postgraduate entrance examination, was hit hard by the rejection of his manuscript. He did not act like a Versailles as before. Seeing that he was never idle after get off work, Chen Ru acquiesced to Lao Wen moving the bedding back to the bedroom.
Chengdu has now entered the coldest period of the year. Compared with the cold and hard balcony, the bed in the master bedroom is so warm and soft. Wen Dongrong cherishes the opportunity to lie in the same bed with his wife again!
Wen Ying was curious: "Did my grandma lend money to my aunt and the others for the trip?"
"Of course not!"
Wen Dongrong chuckled, "Your grandmother asked them in return, 'How could they be so shameless as to squeeze the old man's living expenses when they haven't contributed a cent to the old man's support over the years?' She caught them and scolded them severely."
This incident was enough for Wen Dongrong to show off in front of his wife Chen Ru.
——Look, our mother is not confused!
Grandma Wen has some money, which is given by Wen Ying's family and her third son Wen Changlin. She usually relies on Wen Ying's uncle's family for food and accommodation.
The three sons are very filial to their old mother and support her without any complaints. This is everyone's obligation and no son shirks the responsibility.
On one side is a filial son, and on the other side is an unfilial daughter.
Wen Hongyan has offended all three brothers. Now Grandma Wen wants to use the money given by her sons to secretly support her daughter. The sons can probably only endure it. What will the daughters-in-law think?
People are not afraid of being poor or uneducated, but they are most afraid of not being able to empathize with others.
Chen Ru is willing to pay all the rent to her mother-in-law privately. But when Grandma Wen has enough money, she wants to use it to support people Chen Ru hates. Such behavior will chill Chen Ru's heart!
Wen Ying found it very novel.
After living a new life, everyone has really changed.
In her previous life, Grandma Wen was not so decisive. She was a clingy old lady who favored boys over girls and used her rich son to support her poor children... Now she has changed so much!
"My grandma didn't lend me any money. Is she really worried about Shulu running off to a place like Shanghai where she's unfamiliar with everyone?"
"I'm a little worried. But your grandma said that Shulu herself didn't want to study. If she didn't study, she would have to go out to work."
In fact, the old lady is not that hard-hearted.
No matter how happy she is, Shulu is still her granddaughter.
A sixteen-year-old girl who goes out to work on her own is really easy to be deceived.
Grandma Wen did not lend money to Shu Guobing and his wife, but asked Wen Dongrong to find out the situation.
Wen Dongrong asked the police station and learned that Shu Lu had indeed arrived in Shanghai and could be contacted. No one was restricting Shu Lu's personal freedom. She just didn't want to live with her parents and was not missing!
There are many teenagers like Shu Lu who drop out of school early and go out to work. She is not missing or abducted, and not living with her parents is a family conflict. The police station in Chengdu will not travel thousands of miles to kidnap Shu Lu just because Shu Guobing and his wife are crying.
Shu Lu said she went there to work. What should we do if she is kidnapped? Should we ask the police station to take care of this family of three?
Of course that's impossible!
Because of Shu Lu's "letter", the police also gave Shu Guobing and Wen Hongyan a lecture, asking them to work hard to earn money and become self-reliant as soon as possible to ease family conflicts!
Shu Guobing and Wen Hongyan were both confused.
To be honest, neither of them were good people, but before Shu Guobing went to jail, they were very nice to Shu Lu. Most of the money that Wen Dongrong gave to the Shu family was spent on Shu Lu.
Later, Wen Dongrong came to his senses and stopped providing subsidies. Wen Hongyan was defrauded of tens of thousands of yuan and had to return to the countryside. Her life became worse and worse, which led to Shu Lu dropping out of school.
Shu Lu's "letter" completely erased the kindness her parents had shown her with just a few simple words. Shu Guobing and Wen Hongyan had no way to defend themselves at the police station and could only bear the grievance and be criticized and educated by the police.
This girl Shulu is really an ungrateful little girl. She is so mean to her parents, so don't even expect her to remember the kindness of others.
What is the meaning of favor or not? Being able to always give to Shulu is "favor". If you are not good enough, then the "favor" will turn into "hatred"... I am afraid that all the members of the Wen family are now Shulu's enemies.
