Chapter 104 Metaphysics Live Broadcast + Raising a Child 28
Dad Guo didn't expect that his elder brother would think of this aspect.
He was not involved in the incident either, although he was also in this circle, but the Liu family's wealth was much better than theirs.
To put it simply, the Liu family was not someone they could possibly cling to. At most, they had met before, but they didn't have any close relationship.
According to my brother's idea, it is not impossible.
"I heard the old man from the Liu family is quite active online. Let me check it out, big brother. You should also think about whether you've borrowed anything and forgotten to return it. It never hurts to think about it."
The uncle knew that his younger brother cared about him, but would he not know if he had borrowed things from others?
In response to his brother's concern, the uncle nodded and said, "Okay, I'll think about it carefully. You should also ask around with the Liu family. Be polite and don't offend them."
After hanging up the phone, Guoba searched online and found Mr. Liu’s Weibo account and sent him a private message to ask.
Maybe Mr. Liu was busy, the message showed as unread, so Dad Guo had no choice but to go to Xiao Yan's live broadcast room with the idea of verifying it.
At this time, Xiao Yan had just helped an old lady in her seventies find her lost dog when she went out for a walk.
【Tiantian gave away a cruise ship】
The picture popped up, showing a student who looked to be in the fifth or sixth grade.
Xiao Yan: “…”
"Are you calculating it yourself or helping others?" Xiao Yan asked.
The student's face was filled with anxiety: "Host, my cat is missing just like the old lady just now. Can you help me find it?"
Xiao Yan nodded: "Okay, but as I said before, I don't accept gifts from minors. I will return the gift later."
The students expressed their gratitude again.
After the divination, Xiao Yan frowned.
"According to the hexagram, the little yellow orange you raised was not lost, but your family abandoned it.
Hearing this, the students were both sad and angry: "How could they do this!?"
Tears welled up in her eyes. "They clearly promised me that if I got first place in the exam, they would keep it! Why are they doing this?"
Dad Guo felt very complicated.
If what this master said is true, then the child's parents did something wrong. After all, you shouldn't make a promise if you don't agree. If you agree and then go back on your word and do such a thing, haven't you considered the child's feelings?
Of course, if this master is just doing it for the gimmick of live broadcast, that’s another matter.
While Dad Guo was still thinking about it, the student's family must have heard the noise and walked into the house without even asking.
"Isn't it just a lost cat? Look at how sad you look, it's really unlucky!" The speaker was an old lady with sunken cheeks and a tone of voice that made her seem a bit mean.
"Cry, cry, cry! All you do is cry all day long! Why don't you go and cook? Your grandma and I are already old, do you want to starve us to death? You unfilial thing, wait until your dad comes back, and I'll teach you a lesson!" Another old man's voice came from outside.
The student was feeling sad and upset because of Xiao Yan's words, and he also felt resentful towards the two old men.
At her age, she doesn't care too much, and when she was filmed by the camera, she felt hateful and angry.
Hearing this, she immediately felt rebellious.
The student pushed the old lady standing at the door out, closed the door tightly and locked it.
"This is outrageous! You've raised me to this age, and this is how you treat us? You're just like your mother, both ungrateful. I treated you to all the good food and drinks, and yet you still raised me wrong! If I had known this when your mother gave birth to you, I would have strangled her to death!"
"This is my house, get out! Open the door, open the door quickly, do you hear me!?"
The student sat on the ground, his head buried and his knees hugged, like a wounded little animal.
[A chill comes with every autumn rain: How could there be such a person? Is this something you could say to a child?]
[Discordant: I'm so pissed! I'm sure these two old guys are totally biased towards boys!]
[NUHK: Let's be honest, this kid was also wrong. Pushing the elderly—is that something a younger person would do? What if the elderly person fell? What if the elderly person is in poor health and breaks a bone? Didn't they consider the consequences? To those netizens who criticized the elderly person, I hope you'll have younger generations like this in the future!]
[Candy Crush: This is killing me! Are you the two old guys up there? Hurry up and speak on your main account! Seeing how these two old guys are talking with such vigor, I was worried this kid was going to get beaten!]
[Jerry holding a watermelon: I want to know where the child's parents are. Could this child be a left-behind child?]
[Revisiting the past to learn new things: Speaking of left-behind children, it reminds me of when I was a child, I was often teased by others and told that my parents didn't want me anymore. Every time I saw my classmates' parents picking them up after school, I would be extremely envious. This also led to feelings of inferiority. But thankfully, that's all in the past. Now, I'm incredibly strong mentally.]
[Tick-Tick: You're all much better off than me. My family wasn't well off. My parents worked away from home. My grandfather favored boys over girls and never took care of me. Can you imagine a little old man like me sneaking into the kitchen in the dead of night to find food? And then, during the day, I'd be accused of burglary. Even if it weren't for the nine-year compulsory education and the villagers' persuasion, that old man wouldn't have let me go to school! Forget about my parents. They gave birth to my younger brother in the city and didn't even come home for Spring Festival. I treated them like an orphan anyway! I've already decided: after I finish junior high school, I'll go out to work, and then I'll never come back!]
[Guo Dad: Please calm down, kid. Education is still very important. If what you say is true, I am willing to support you through college free of charge. I don't need anything in return. As long as you can be a person who does not harm society, that's all.]
[Cola Chicken Wings: The Pot Dad Appears!]
[Woof woof woof: @Didada Girl, don't think that. Working might temporarily alleviate your difficulties, but once you finish college, you'll have more options. If you finish junior high, you'll be a teenager, making you a child laborer. No one, except shady investors, would dare hire you. Even if you were accepted, you wouldn't receive the same benefits as an employee. You'd be stuck waiting tables, doing backbreaking work. Of course, you can learn some skills, but that requires someone willing to teach you, and the initial stages will be tough and tiring. Listen to Guo Dad. If you're truly struggling, consider asking him for help. He's also said he's willing to support you through college, no repayment required. Don't miss out on this opportunity!]
Dida is a first-year junior high student living in a small village in southern China. Her situation is exactly as she described: her parents didn't give her grandfather a penny, and he treated her as if she didn't exist. She can only sleep in the chicken coop with the family's chickens.
Because she couldn't afford the accommodation fee, she had to walk to town an hour and a half early every day to study. She ate rice balls stolen from home. Every day before and after school, she would rummage through trash cans for bottles to sell. Sometimes when she was lucky, she could even pick up rags that others didn't want. Even the mobile phone she uses now was earned by helping her classmates write homework for a long time.
Because time and conditions did not allow, her clothes always looked dirty and old, and it was no surprise that she was ostracized by her classmates. Fortunately, these classmates were not too bad. At most, they said bad things about her behind her back and refused to play with her. However, she was not treated violently or the toilet was deliberately closed.
Because of her living environment, she actually hates this world a little, but she has to admit that there are still kind people in this cold world, such as the villagers who secretly help her, the teacher who takes good care of her, and the owner of the breakfast shop on the street. She is very grateful in her heart, but at the same time she also feels the pressure of being helped but unable to repay.
She felt that life was tiring, but she still had to repay these favors, so she thought about dropping out of school and working after finishing junior high school.
It’s not because of the free nine-year compulsory education, but because after she finishes junior high school and grows up, someone will be willing to take her in.
To be honest, after seeing what Guoba said in the live broadcast room, she was very moved, but also had some bad thoughts.
She found it hard to imagine that there would be free pie in the sky.
She had heard that some rich people had bad habits, such as liking minors, but just as this idea came to her mind, she received a private message from someone who claimed to be willing to support her. The person asked her to leave her address and phone number, and someone would come to investigate. If the situation was as she said, the other party would provide free support for her future living expenses, tuition fees, and even interest classes.
While waiting, my heart was in turmoil.
Is this man a liar, or someone who wants to support her?
Or...are there really such kind-hearted people in the world?
Of course, she eventually managed to continue her college education, but that’s another story.
At this moment, in the live video, the student finally stopped crying, but when she saw many people in the live broadcast room caring about her, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes again.
"My parents work in the city, and because the transfer procedures are difficult, I stayed in my hometown to study."
"My mom and dad bought this house. My grandparents moved in here saying it would be easier for them to take care of me, but... they didn't take care of me at all!"
"Every morning before school, I have to prepare meals for them. When I get home at noon, I have to clean up the morning dishes and make lunch. In the afternoon, after school, I have to buy groceries, cook, and do housework. I can tolerate all of this, but they clearly agreed that if I got first place in the exam, they would allow me to get a cat. Why don't you keep your promise!?"
She is very sad.
"Host, where is my cat now? I want to find it. It was just born not long ago and will definitely starve to death outside!"
"Your cat has been picked up by a very loving and kind-hearted couple."
After a pause, Xiao Yan continued, "I personally don't recommend that you bring the cat back. After all, judging from your current situation, it's probably doing better in someone else's home than in yours. At least it won't be bullied intentionally. Furthermore, I personally think that your top priority is to resolve your current predicament."
"Of course, if you really want to get it back, I will help you."
