Chapter 23
Huang Guihua was holding a heavy cloth bag in her hand.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she put down the things in her hands and pretended to help Wang Mengmei put on clothes: "Oh my, why do you have to wash so many clothes at once?"
Wang Mengmei said nothing, just slapping the sheets fresh out of the washing machine. Huang Guihua didn't really want to help, she just stood there with her five fingers open and touched once or twice, just for show.
Jian Feng also kept his head down and asked his mother to come in and sit down.
Huang Guihua looked at the house where she had lived for several years and licked her lips: "I'd better not go in. I'll go pick up Lao Si's family later..."
As soon as she entered the house, she would think of that dead man, so Huang Guihua refused to go in.
Jian Feng brought out a small armchair from the house, and Huang Guihua sat on it.
Huang Guihua looked around and said, "You guys added a washing machine."
Jian Feng: “Yes.”
The home he took over was a bare house.
At first, he didn't even have a bed. Later, when he started working, he filled up the house little by little like a swallow picking up mud everywhere. When he had his own little swallow, there were more things in the house, but he never had enough money for the big things.
Until now, there are only two big items in my home: a TV and a washing machine.
Huang Guihua: "It looks quite new. Did you buy it not long ago?"
Jian Feng: “It’s not been long since I bought it.”
Huang Guihua: "You are doing some small business now, which is better than your two younger brothers. The third brother is now a doctor. Not only is he busy all day long, but he also doesn't make much money. The fourth brother is even worse. He says he makes money, but in fact, all he makes is debt. He has to go to collect the debts in the second half of the year..."
How refreshing! In the past few decades, Jian Feng had never heard a good word from his mother.
Huang Guihua used to often say that he was not smart and could not read, so he had to be nice to his younger brothers and sisters so that they could help him in the future.
Now he comes to borrow the light.
Huang Guihua talked about a lot of difficulties faced by each family. In her words, the third son Ge Changyuan worked as a doctor in the city hospital, but he did not earn as much as Jian Feng did in a month as a worker. The fourth son Ge Changjun was even more of a debtor in business! The two bright and beautiful sons were about to go out to beg for food.
"You said you wanted to learn how to drive a big car. I think you should just forget it."
The dagger is revealed.
Huang Guihua said, "That guy over there, Ge Changfeng, the eldest son of Old Ge, isn't he just a bus driver? He was out all day long, and his wife ran away later. I'm not saying Xiaomei would definitely do such a thing, but think about it, isn't this the truth?"
Jian Feng's face turned red, and Wang Mengmei was also very angry.
Huang Guihua was slow and deliberate, making the accusation one thing after another. Who couldn't see that she was trying to find excuses for her other two sons?
Sometimes Wang Mengmei admired this old lady, who could say harsh words and also save face. In the early years when she was chasing Jian Feng, she was very harsh in her words, but now she can come to his house with a smile on her face.
Wang Mengmei smiled wryly: "I'm not the kind of person who would abandon my man and children and go live with someone else."
Huang Guihua seemed not to understand the blatant sarcasm in these words. She was able to remain calm and composed: "You scared me when you came to see your two brothers yesterday. I thought you had encountered something serious, so I hurried over to see you. When I saw that you were doing well, I felt relieved."
When something big happens, it’s not a big deal unless your family is destroyed and everyone is killed.
Come and have a look—just to show your face.
Seeing that you're doing well, I feel relieved - let's just forget about borrowing money.
We are all adults. Who can't see the purpose of Huang Guihua's trip today?
Jian Feng's face turned livid: "Tell the third and fourth brothers that the money is no longer needed."
Huang Guihua smiled widely: "Look at you, why are you so suspicious? Your two brothers didn't say that. I just wanted to come and see you."
It's finally here, and she still wants to hate Jian Feng.
It's not me who said I wouldn't give it to you, it's you who said you didn't want it.
Huang Guihua knew everything about her son and had a firm grasp on him.
After completing her goal, she quickly said goodbye, leaving Jian Feng and Wang Mengmei feeling very angry.
Jian Feng walked into the house without saying a word. If he felt it was boring to be tricked by Liu Xiangdong, then the behavior of his two younger brothers undoubtedly made him discouraged.
There was a voice in his heart saying, "Now that things have come to this, should I still ask my little sister for a loan?"
My younger sister Ge Yaqin is a teacher. She married into a wealthy family, so a few thousand yuan should be no problem for her.
But Jian Feng smiled self-deprecatingly.
If his younger sister was like this, he was afraid that he really wouldn't be able to bear it.
He didn't dare to explore the result.
Why not just forget it?
Being a worker doesn't seem so bad. Isn't that what everyone does? Who around him doesn't live like this? How many people in the factory are cheating and slacking off? They say that going to the toilet can take half a day. Everyone is fooling around, so it's clear that fooling around can make a living. After all, he still has Wang Mengmei's small stall in his family. At worst, he can help his wife do it...
Wang Mengmei came into the room and poked Jian Feng who was lying on the bed.
"What your mother just said was really disgusting."
Jian Feng didn't say anything. Wang Mengmei slapped him on the arm and said, "Don't tell me you don't want to study now!"
Jian Feng was extremely tired: "I didn't say I won't learn. Let's wait a little longer."
What can I do if I can’t borrow money?
Wang Mengmei was also feeling angry. When people reach middle age, apart from making a living, they often face such bad moments.
Jian Feng's mother is usually mean to people, and her mother is very competitive, wishing that she could compete with her elder sister until they are bloodied.
Like Jian Feng, she has her own terrible mother.
Wang Mengmei said in a choked voice: "Learn! Wait for me for two months, I will make sure I can earn enough money to let you learn to drive!"
Without the help of her parents, the couple had struggled to get to where they are now. It was such an uphill road, and she, Wang Mengmei, had to hold on!
Jian Feng turned over and sat up: "I plan to talk to the factory and give up my position as team leader."
Being a team leader may earn a few dozen bucks more, but his time is not as flexible as others. It is a thankless job to deal with the superiors and subordinates, and most importantly, he cannot leave his post often.
Jian Feng: "I'll go with you!"
His wife trusted him so much and protected him, so he couldn't let his family down.
Wang Mengmei let out a breath: "It's really difficult."
It's so difficult.
"...By the way, where's Xiaoli?"
Jian Feng: "I just saw her here...where has this girl gone now?"
****
Jian Li was lying in ambush on the roadside at this time.
She had just quietly followed Huang Guihua out of the door, and then secretly watched Huang Guihua walk for about ten minutes until she arrived at the Children's Palace.
Huang Guihua walked into the Children's Palace and leaned on the window of a room to look in. Seeing that school was not over yet, she went outside the Children's Palace to wait for her grandson Ge Ming.
Jian Li walked past her and Huang Guihua didn't even notice her.
Although she had just met her granddaughter, Huang Guihua was so focused on how to stop her eldest son from asking for money that she didn't pay much attention to Jian Li.
Jian Li entered the Children's Palace and lay on the window of the Olympiad class.
Inside, her fourth uncle Ge Changjun's son Ge Ming was taking tutoring classes with a teacher.
Ge Ming was a fat and strong boy, and Huang Guihua's favorite was the grandson born to her youngest son.
Ge Ming Ge Ming, this name was chosen to express Ge Changjun's best wish that his son would be as smart as Zhuge Kongming.
But Ge Ming is almost ten years old, and the biggest difference between him and Zhuge Kong Ming is that they are both men.
Over the years, Ge Changjun has been worried about his son, but he is busy making money and can't really care about the family affairs. Therefore, under the care of his grandmother and mother, Ge Ming grows up to be more and more domineering.
Since he was a child, he had to get what he wanted. He bullied his classmates at school and made a lot of noise at home. In his previous life, he relied on his family's money to do whatever he wanted.
Ge Ming grew up recklessly until he was over 30 years old, and was finally imprisoned for being involved in organized crime. Unfortunately, Huang Guihua did not see this scene with her own eyes. She lived happily until she was 80 years old, and died happily in her sleep. She never saw the child she raised go to jail because of wrong education...
What a pity.
Jian Li touched the scar next to her ear. This scar was caused by Ge Ming using firecrackers during the Chinese New Year when she was a child.
The doctor said that if the position was a little more wrong, Jane Li would lose hearing in her left ear.
But what did Huang Guihua say at that time?
She protected Ge Ming: "Dabao didn't do it on purpose! Isn't Jian Li fine? If you want to explain, I will give her my ears as compensation."
Jian Li's fourth uncle also looked guilty and bought her a set of Barbie dolls.
Jian Feng and his wife swallowed their anger for Ge Changjun's sake.
Jian Li clenched her fists.
Although Jian Feng and Wang Mengmei have strong opinions about Huang Guihua, if Jian Li scolds Huang Guihua, Jian Feng and Wang Mengmei will only punish her by making her stand in the corner.
That’s why Jian Li didn’t say anything just now, but she was thinking in her heart, she couldn’t do anything about Huang Guihua, but what about Ge Ming?
In the cram school, Ge Ming, who is only twelve or thirteen years old, is tall and fat, with a slit in his eye on his face. He doesn't study himself, and he slacks off so much that his deskmate can't learn either.
The teacher at the podium frowned and called out Ge Ming's name every three to five minutes.
But Ge Ming was just laughing and not afraid at all, and was even harassing his deskmate vigorously.
His desk mate was wearing a pair of glasses, so Ge Ming took his glasses away. Relying on his tall stature, he turned the glasses from left to right, shouting "Little Four Eyes".
Jian Li: ...
This smell of scumbag has never changed in two lifetimes.
The child who was bullied by Ge Mingba curled his arms, not daring to provoke him, and lowered his head with tears in his eyes.
Ge Ming suddenly felt bored, so he threw his glasses into the trash can at the back, and then went to take the book from the girl on the right.
Jian Li waited outside for twenty minutes, watching Ge Ming harassing everyone, bullying one after another.
When the class was over, the teacher standing on the podium gave earnest advice to Huang Guihua who came to pick up the students.
"Mr. Ge Ming, can you tell Ge Ming after you go back that we are all here to learn, and we should pay attention to discipline in class. If you really don't want to learn Olympiad mathematics, we can explore other interests for your child. Olympiad mathematics courses are not suitable for every child... Of course, you have only been here less than three times. If you choose to drop out of the class, I can also refund all the fees to you."
Because of Ge Ming’s non-cooperation, even the Olympiad teacher didn’t want to teach him anymore.
Huang Guihua didn't know what Mathematical Olympiad was, but she knew that Ge Changjun had used his connections to get Ge Ming into this class. She didn't care whether Ge Ming was smart or not, and she thought that everyone should make way for Ge Ming as long as it was a place that was worth the money and difficult to get into.
As for the teacher, Huang Guihua didn't worry about it at all. Whose son had money? She paid for the service. If the teacher couldn't teach well, it was because he had no ability. How could you blame the child for not listening in class?
"Teacher, what are you talking about? He is so obedient. He even helps me with housework at home. How can you say that he doesn't study?"
"He also harasses other children during class, making it impossible for them to concentrate on their studies." The teacher felt helpless. It was true that there were children with connections in his class, but none of the other children was like Ge Ming, jumping around all day long. In his class, no one who sat next to him would keep quiet.
The teacher has never seen such a naughty student. He won't listen no matter what you say and you can't beat him. His presence has ruined the atmosphere of the entire Olympiad class.
One rat dropping spoils the whole pot of soup.
This means that Huang Guihua is unhappy.
She turned the tables and said, "Who messed with them? Our Dabao was playing with them! Besides, why don't you say that they were the ones who delayed my Dabao's time? Let me tell you, your class agreed to make up for math. If our math scores don't improve in the midterm exam, I will come to find you."
Huang Guihua actually doesn't care that much about grades, but Ge Changjun does.
The third child, Ge Changyuan, was good at studying since he was young, and his son was even better at studying. When there were other families competing with each other, Ge Changjun would always ask about their grades when he got home.
But Ge Ming had only been to school for a few days since kindergarten. When it was time to go to kindergarten, Ge Ming always cried. So Huang Guihua simply didn't send him to kindergarten. During the three years in kindergarten and one year in preschool, Ge Ming spent the whole time at home, eating Wahaha and biscuits.
I was absent from classes every other day when I entered primary school. Now I am in junior high school. Sometimes I can’t even do the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division that I learned in primary school, let alone the original curriculum.
After Ge Changjun asked his son about his grades, he would always get angry and beat him up.
Especially after the fourth grade, after the midterms and finals every year, Ge Minglei would be beaten if he couldn't move.
Under the pressure of Ge Changjun, Huang Guihua had to pay attention to her grandson's education.
She didn't necessarily want Ge Ming to have very good grades. What she wanted was for his grades to improve a little so that Ge Changjun wouldn't beat his son again.
In Huang Guihua's simple view, there is nothing in this world that money cannot do.
If your grades are not good, then send them to the best cram school. Spend some money and you can always improve your grades.
Therefore, she thinks that the teacher is meddling in other people's business. Can't she just teach the children properly? As for how she manages and teaches her grandson, it is none of her business as a cram school teacher!
Even the Olympiad mathematics teacher is not used to seeing such a nail stuck in the teacher's body.
I said directly: "If you say so, I can't do it. Ge Ming's foundation is very poor. If you want your child to have good grades, I suggest you drop out of the class directly."
After saying this, he didn't say any more to Huang Guihua, but turned around and prepared to call Ge Changjun.
This student said he didn’t want anything!
Huang Guihua kept on complaining, but people ignored her.
She spat and cursed, "Stinky old nine!"
While scolding others, he forgot that his little daughter is also a teacher.
Ge Ming tugged at her sleeve and said, "Grandma, give me fifty yuan."
Huang Guihua felt a little pained: "What do you want fifty for?"
Ge Ming said impatiently: "Just give it to me, why bother talking!"
As soon as his attitude got bad, Huang Guihua softened her voice: "Here, here, here. Grandma is just afraid that you will learn bad things... My dear, don't eat anything carelessly when you have money. What if you get an upset stomach? Come back early in the evening and I will make you some shrimps."
Ge Ming took the money and threw the schoolbag to Huang Guihua: "What do you care?"
Huang Guihua lovingly picked up the schoolbag he had thrown on the ground and scolded him with a smile, "What an enemy."
Jian Li avoided Huang Guihua's sight and followed Ge Ming closely.
Ge Ming walked out of the Children's Palace, turned a few corners, and soon found himself in an alley.
"Hello, brother!"
"Big brother is here!"
Five or six hooligans dressed as junior high school students gathered around Ge Ming.
I don't know who took out a pack of cigarettes, everyone took one and started puffing.
Ge Ming narrowed his eyes and said, "Damn it, what kind of bastard training class is this? They've trained me like my grandson."
The teacher of the Olympiad class was a former public school teacher who had quit to work on his own. He was well-known in the city for his good teaching skills. Such a teacher was a resource in itself. Ge Changjun gave him a few bottles of good wine and two thousand yuan, and then gave it to Ge Ming.
But Ge Ming felt very uncomfortable being controlled.
When he was in school, no teacher dared to discipline him, but now he is being disciplined so strictly by a tutor.
Not only is he strict, but this teacher also calls his father from time to time.
As a result, Ge Changjun has to take time out to come back and beat him up recently.
"I really want to kill him!"
A lackey nearby chimed in: "Brother Ming, why don't we give him a beating?"
"When he comes here, put a sack on him and beat him up so he won't know who beat him up."
Ge Ming rolled his eyes: "This is so boring."
"Does that teacher have a son or daughter? If he scolds you, we will beat his child."
Ge Ming then became interested: "He seems to have a son."
"I know! Brother Ming, that teacher accepted the top student in our class, and his son is in the class next to mine!"
Ge Ming chuckled: "What's the point of just beating him? Let's trick him out, beat him up, and then throw him to a place where no one knows. Let him find it himself."
Lackey No. 2 offered another suggestion: "I know a place!"
"There's a waste well right behind our school!"
Ge Ming was a little hesitant: "Is there water in that well? Don't let anyone get killed."
"Don't worry, don't worry. That well has been there for many years. Someone fell into it before, but the child climbed out by himself. It's nothing serious except that it's scary."
Ge Ming crushed the cigarette butt: "Okay, let's do it this way."
A group of hooligans discussed how to be tricked out and walked away arm in arm.
Jian Li had never thought that she would have such a gain. She had followed him just to see if Ge Ming would be left alone and whether she could put Ge Ming's sack on him.
Who would have thought that I would hear that Ge Ming actually wanted to bully others!
And the teacher's child...
Jian Li suddenly recalled the news from her previous life. This year, there was indeed a news story about a junior high school student who accidentally fell into an abandoned well. The well mouth was too narrow, and by the time he was discovered, a long time had passed. In order to save him, three excavators were mobilized to get him out, but it was too late to save him. Because of this incident, Taocheng launched a special operation for a period of time, asking all units to seal all abandoned well mouths.
Even the cotton textile factory sealed off a dozen wells, and parents warned their children not to go to the wells.
Jian Li could never have imagined that the child was thrown in there on purpose because of a bully!
Her heart sank. No wonder Ge Ming became more and more unbridled and did all kinds of evil things. Perhaps it was because he had never been punished since he was a child!
He can even do something as fatal as this!
Jian Li thought about it and bought a pen and a notebook directly across from the Children's Palace.
Ge Ming and his team’s plans were written on it.
Regardless of whether the teacher believed it or not, she would remind him.
After finishing, she handed the paper to the security guard and said that it was the homework for the Olympiad class that she forgot to hand in, and asked him to hand it to the Olympiad class teacher who was about to finish school.
On the way home, Jian Li was still thinking about the evil thing Ge Ming had done.
After Ge Ming went in last life, his fourth uncle Ge Changjun brought back a little boy from outside without saying a word.
Perhaps Ge Changjun had long seen that Ge Ming was a loser, so he started practicing outside early on.
After hearing this in prison, Ge Ming threatened to go out and kill the illegitimate child.
Of course, he didn't have this opportunity. Ge Changjun didn't even hire a lawyer for him, and in the end, Ge Mingdingge was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Jian Li doesn't care about the love-hate relationship in her fourth uncle's family, but she sympathizes with those people who have been hurt by Ge Ming.
Ge Ming was the last one to go in, and his fourth uncle was just enjoying being a rich man.
Ge Changjun felt no guilt or regret towards others for raising such a child.
He put all the blame on his mother and wife, as if he had played a purely positive role in Ge Ming's education.
Jian Li spat.
What a bunch of scum!
