Chapter 558 The boy is my white moonlight (17)
The Chu family sent Chu Xu to study abroad, but kept Xu Shiyi, who was taken in, to study in China, which caused heated discussions among relatives and friends. Li Ling thought that the recording she released to her aunt had worked.
Her brother went abroad to study, so she naturally did not want to be left behind. She started to prepare application materials and prepared to go abroad after the end of her senior year. She thought that she and her brother were the only ones abroad, and they used to be so close, so her relationship with her brother would definitely be further improved. When she returned to China after finishing her studies, some things would be done, and the relatives around her would have to recognize them whether they recognized them or not.
Because Li Ling was going to study abroad, her mother Ying Xinxin had countless quarrels with her husband. Ying Xinxin saw that her husband was really pedantic, so she finally took Li Ling out of the house and separated from him.
Father Li called his eldest sister-in-law, hoping that she could persuade his wife. Mother Chu talked to the third sister Ying Xinxin several times. Ying Xinxin agreed verbally, but she was still the same in private and didn't go home at all. Later, Father Li simply ignored his wife Ying Xinxin and only asked his daughter Li Ling to go home every weekend.
Everyone in the family and friends knew about Li Ling's little thoughts. They said too many unpleasant things in private. Cousin Zhuang Yue even came to complain about Li Ling's little thoughts. It was also because of this that Li Ling unilaterally decided to break up with Zhuang Yue.
Chu Xu's going abroad was also a happy thing for Shi Yi. Chu Xu was still young, and he would definitely be more mature after seeing more new things abroad.
Because Li Ling was studying hard on weekends, Mrs. Chu was embarrassed to invite her to church to worship together, so Shi Yi, who took the initiative to drop to the first grade of high school to repeat, replaced her.
Every time Shi Yi went to church, she didn't go in. She just waited in the garden outside the church from a distance. Sometimes she would sit under the wisteria trellis and read a book, sometimes she would go to the lake and quietly watch the fishes swimming, and sometimes she would stand upright at the door and bask in the sunshine.
After many times, Mrs. Chu finally couldn't resist her inner curiosity and took the initiative to speak on the way home.
"Every time you accompany me to church, you don't go inside. Is it because you don't believe in religion?"
Shi Yi sat upright, with his hands respectfully placed on his knees, and gently looked into the eyes of the old lady in the front mirror and said, "It's not that I don't believe in religion, but religion can't help me."
"The Bible says that you should walk towards the light, so that darkness will not come upon you. If you don't take the initiative to approach the 'light', how can you walk out of the darkness?" Mrs. Chu, who was wearing a dark green dress and round pearl earrings, half lowered her eyes and looked at her through the front mirror.
"The Bible also says that everything done under the sun is meaningless and a chasing after the wind. The Bible also says that what has been will be again, what has been done will be done again, and there is nothing new under the sun. If that's the case, why should I still believe it?" Shi Yi slightly lowered her eyelashes, and her hands unconsciously grabbed her legs.
Old Mrs. Chu is the real backbone of the Chu family. If she can win the favor of her old lady, she will definitely have much greater freedom in the future.
Old Mrs. Chu closed her eyes, and suddenly the words in the Bible "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God" rang in her mind.
Xu Shiyi, this child, is actually more intelligent than her, an old believer for many years. This is a good thing. She tried hard to suppress the smile at the corners of her mouth, making herself as dignified and upright as usual.
On the weekends, Shi Yi was called away by Old Mrs. Chu. He was often not seen at home during the day, and Chu's mother was a little dissatisfied.
She had worked so hard to raise a child so that he could keep her company, but someone else took him first. How could she feel good about this? She complained about this problem as soon as her husband came back.
Father Chu pointed his finger at his wife's forehead and said with a smile, "You are silly. Mother is a person who, except for doting on her grandson, is always majestic and difficult to approach towards other people. When you first got married, didn't you also find her difficult to deal with and always complained to me. Now Shi Yi is standing in front of you. You are so free on weekends and can do whatever you want. What else do you have to be unhappy about?"
"Oh." Mother Chu patted her forehead and said belatedly, "I am really confused."
"Be nice to children." Father Chu hugged her in his arms and said with concern, "The little girl has suffered so much to accompany her son to finish high school and then go back to high school again. If you cause her more trouble, you will be wrong."
Mother Chu slammed his chest heavily, "Am I that kind of person! I treat Shi Yi as my own daughter."
Father Chu shook his head and said casually, "If you really treat her as your own daughter, you wouldn't let your son go abroad alone. It's not like our Chu family can't afford the cost of studying abroad."
Mother Chu turned around and went to Shi Yi's room to clean up. Her painstaking efforts were too heavy, and it would be bad to tell anyone about it now.
"Look at you, you're old, you can't say a few words." Father Chu took off his coat and walked towards the study.
It's rare to stay at home for a few days a year, and during these few days, he, as a boss, has to work from home.
Two years passed quickly, and Li Ling was finally able to go abroad.
At the airport, Ying Xinxin cried while carrying large and small bags for her.
"Daughter, when you go abroad, remember to live with your brother. You are a girl, and your mother is so worried about you. I heard that those men abroad are not good people. You must not be with them. Mom doesn't like foreign sons-in-law."
"Mom, I know. I will go find my brother." Li Ling reached out to pat her mother's back to comfort her, while checking her boarding pass and paying attention to the boarding time.
"Tell me about you. If your relationship with your brother was still the same as when you were little, your brother would definitely not choose to go abroad alone, but take you with him." Ying Xinxin was about to continue talking, but Li Ling slapped her on the shoulder, "Mom, it's almost time to board the flight. I'll go to the security check first."
"Lingling, Lingling, remember to get along well with your brother when you go abroad. Try to make your relationship better than before." Ying Xinxin watched her daughter's back as she went away, and her eyes were blurred by tears.
If it weren't for the Chu family's resources, she wouldn't have sold everything she had to send her daughter to Chu Xu. She just hoped that when her daughter came back again, her elder sister could find a good job for her daughter in the Chu family company. For girls, the most important thing is to get married. With the Chu family backing their daughter, their daughter Li Ling will not have to worry about not having a good family in the future.
"Okay." Li Ling wiped her tears, waved her hand and said goodbye to her mother, and the dawn of victory appeared faintly in front of her.
People always have to be brave once in their lives. She chose her brother and hoped to get what she wanted.
I'm begging for subscriptions, recommendation tickets, and monthly tickets by acting cute. I feel like I'm being humble every day. Cry.
