Gu Feng has always wanted Gu Lei and Gu Jingrui to go to school. He used to think that going to school was nothing, but since he met Wanwan, seeing her words and deeds and seeing that she knew everything, he suddenly felt that learning was a good thing and knowledge was very useful.
He had never thought about leaving here before, and felt that his current life was good. Later, he had the idea of going to Beijing to develop. If he wanted to leave, he wanted to take his family with him. His elder brother and sister-in-law were already like this, and only Gu Lei and Gu Jingrui could change it.
He had always had this plan. After Wanwan proposed it, he thought it was feasible and immediately discussed it with Gu Lei and Gu Jingrui. However, he did not expect that they all said in unison that they were unwilling to go. This made Gu Feng very angry and disappointed.
"I let you go to school for your own good. Why don't you want to go? Don't you want to learn knowledge?" Gu Feng tried his best to make his tone calmer, but it was still very scary.
"We just feel that knowledge is useless. Brother, didn't you also study hard? You are still living a good life now, so why should we go to school?"
"Yes, Second Uncle, what my younger uncle said is right. We don't need knowledge at all. You are fine the way you are."
"This is the difference between the city and the countryside. People don't care about their children's education at all. Most people think it's useless."
"Don't you want to leave here and go out to the big city?"
"Brother, do you want to leave here and develop in a big city?"
"Yes, your sister-in-law and I are planning to live in Beijing in the future, and I hope to take you with us, so you can decide for yourself whether you want to go to school or not."
"Brother, can you go? Why do we have to go to school?"
"Because I know how difficult it is for me to go out. If I have the chance, I will take you there and you will understand how difficult it is to live without knowledge."
"Does it cost a lot of money to go to school?" Gu Jingrui asked.
"Don't worry about the money. Since I let you go, I must have money. Besides, our family is not so poor that you can't afford to go to school."
"Brother, let me discuss this with Jingrui." Gu Lei said timidly, fearing that he would be beaten, because his brother's face looked horrible.
"Uncle, are you going to live in Beijing for Aunt?" Gu Jingrui asked.
"Partly, I've never seen life outside of this before, and I thought this was pretty good. Ever since I met Wanwan, I've realized life can be even better. When you see how she speaks and behaves, and how her family speaks and behaves, don't you envy her? Don't you want to have that kind of life too?"
When I think about their clothes and the red envelope they gave me, which actually had ten dollars in it, the car they drive, their manners, and their elegance and grace, who wouldn't want to be that kind of person and live that kind of life?
But studying alone doesn't make you that kind of person. My second brother clearly wanted to live that kind of life, and he didn't study either. Why did he ask me to study now? Gu Lei couldn't figure it out. As for Gu Jingrui, he was still young and couldn't think so much. He just wanted to play. Anyway, he had his uncle, so he could go wherever he wanted.
Seeing Gu Feng approaching with a bad look on his face, Lu Wanwan wondered what had happened. Why was his face so dark, as if someone owed him a lot of money?
"Hey, what's wrong? Why are you so upset? Who is trying to steal your wife? Or does someone owe you money?" Lu Wanwan teased.
"Do I look really bad? Go look in the mirror yourself, you'll probably be scared to death."
How could it be so scary? I am already very gentle, isn’t it? Gu Feng thought to himself.
If others heard it, they would definitely think that Gu Feng’s understanding of gentleness was different from others.
"Oh, I told them both about going to school, but they seemed reluctant. Sometimes they said that going to school was useless, and sometimes they said they were afraid of spending money. I don't know what they were thinking." Gu Feng was angry. He was doing it for their own good.
"The family doesn't need this little money from them. Are they so poor that they can't afford to go to school?" Gu Feng continued.
"If you think going to school is useful and your family is not short of money, then why didn't you go to school in the first place?" Lu Wanwan asked.
"Before I met you, I also thought that going to school was useless. Don't I think differently now?"
"Then they haven't met someone who makes them feel that going to school is useful?"
"Besides, with your gloomy face, I guess I don't dare to tell you what I think. Can't you just say it nicely?" Lu Wanwan said with a smile.
"I'm anxious too." Gu Feng felt aggrieved. He felt that he was already very gentle.
"Don't worry about it. I'll talk to him later. I guess Gu Lei will go to Jingrui too. Jingrui is young and doesn't know much, so he will definitely look after Gu Lei." Lu Wanwan said.
"Okay."
"If you don't have a sullen face, they will dare to tell you the truth."
After dinner, Lu Wanwan went to chat with Gu Lei. When he saw his second sister-in-law coming, he knew that she must have told his second brother something. Alas, he couldn't avoid it after hiding for a whole day. Fortunately, it was his second sister-in-law, so he didn't have to look at his second brother's dark face.
"Second sister-in-law, why are you here?" he said guiltily.
"You know why I came here, why do you still ask me?" Seeing the other party's guilty look, Lu Wanwan said directly.
"Now that your second brother is not here, tell me why you don't want to go to school?"
"I think it's fine for my second brother not to go to school. He's no worse off than those who go. Why should I go to school? It costs money to go to school."
"Your second brother wants to take you to live in Beijing. It's different from here. The children there are all in school, learning knowledge, and then finding suitable jobs with their knowledge."
"But your second brother can go even if he doesn't have any knowledge. He also needs to learn, but he doesn't go to school. You can go to school, and your second brother needs to work and study to make up for what he has learned before."
