He believed that he would succeed with the skills he had in his dream.
"Forget it, you're just a little kid, what do you know? Just study hard, get into a good university, and find a good job."
What the old lady hates most now is her grandson's unrealistic ambitions.
What time is it now? You're already thinking about starting a business. You're so young and you're not learning anything good.
You should do the right things at the right age.
"Grandma, you need to know that's my child support. If you don't give it to me, I can sue you."
Finally, Zhou Bu said these words.
The old lady was shocked for two seconds, then grabbed a feather duster from the side and started whipping.
"You brat, you want a beating, don't you?"
Although he believed he had the memories from his dream, he was just a little kid now and couldn't beat the old lady at all. The old lady beat his bottom until it was covered in red and blue welts.
Zhou Bu didn't even dare to touch his butt anymore, and cried loudly.
The old lady was about to hit him again, so he quickly ran away and went to call the police.
When the police brought him back, the old lady was cooking.
Seeing the police officer, my heart skipped a beat. Could something have happened to my son inside? I quickly came out to ask.
"Officer, what happened?"
“The old lady’s child said that you took his child support money but didn’t give it to him, and that you were trying to take his child support money.”
What the police didn't mention was that the child also told them that the old lady was abusing him.
The old lady was so angry that her veins were bulging. She wished she could drag Zhou Bu over and give him another good beating. This brat really needed to be taught a lesson; he was really going to take advantage of her.
The old lady glared at Zhou Bu.
"You come here right now!"
Zhou Bu quickly hid behind the police officer, "Uncle police, look, this is how my grandma bullies me and beats me! You must stand up for me!"
The old lady was furious; that brat had gone too far.
"Officers, don't listen to his nonsense. His father got into some trouble and went to jail. Now it's just him and me."
At such a young age, he said he wanted to learn how to do business, and when asked, he always said he needed several thousand or tens of thousands.
Now, I'm just an old woman with a child to raise. How could I possibly hand over the money to him like that? I'm afraid he'll be scammed.
His mother is a doctor in a remote area, and I can't contact her even once a month. What if something goes wrong if I give him the money?
The police understood the situation and realized the old lady was alright, so they patiently explained to the child.
After a long time, Zhou Bu had to accept the reality that he was now just a child, and not many people would believe what he said.
If he wants to change all of this, he'll either have to grow up overnight or find another way.
It's impossible for him to go back to school now. He's a very intelligent person, and he can't possibly be stuck with those little kids studying those awful math and Chinese subjects every day.
Most importantly, he is a very patriotic person, so he doesn't like English.
"Alright, little one, you must listen to your grandma. Remember, she's your grandma, she wouldn't hurt you, understand?"
"I understand," Zhou Bu said sullenly.
After the police left, the old lady closed the door, grabbed a feather duster from the side, and beat him severely again.
"You brat, if I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know what rules are."
"You dare to go to the police? You've got some nerve! I'll beat you to death today."
"Help!"
Zhou Bu kept running around but still got beaten up. He was so badly beaten that he couldn't get up from the bed, and his buttocks hurt terribly whenever he moved.
He stayed in bed for several days and didn't want to go to school anymore.
When the homeroom teacher called, the old lady said that this brat was completely disobedient and she couldn't control him anymore.
The old lady just didn't want to get involved.
The old lady used to live such a carefree life. She would get up and have breakfast, then go downstairs to do square dancing, practice Tai Chi, and sometimes even go out for morning tea.
These days, let alone having morning tea, even having time is a problem. There's just too much work to do every day, and I also have to find ways to earn some pocket money.
The old lady used to look down on those who did handicrafts, but now she has to do some handicrafts herself, and she can earn a little money, even if it's just a few cents.
And all of this was because his son went in.
The old lady wasn't unwilling to continue taking advantage of her daughter, but they had already fallen out long ago, and turning back now was impossible. Besides, the girl wouldn't let her keep scheming against her.
The old lady had no choice but to rely on herself and keep her grandson close to ensure she could receive child support every month.
A few days later, Zhou Bu was finally able to get out of bed. The first thing he did was to look for the card, but the old lady had already hidden it. No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find it.
He could only go out and call Mo Yan again and again, but without exception, he couldn't get through.
The child support payments were made on time every month, and he could see the text message notifications every month.
He was furious as he watched the money in his card dwindle away, even though it had nothing to do with him and was all spent by his grandmother.
That day, he finally couldn't hold back anymore and started arguing with the old lady.
"Grandma, why do you transfer all my child support payments every month?"
“You’re just a kid, why are you putting so much money in your card? I don’t feel comfortable putting it in my card; it’s the safest place. Besides, I don’t need to explain so much to you. Since you’re free these next couple of days, just go to school.”
