214: Write a letter back home
At night, after Yu Erye fell asleep, the family of three returned to the space yacht.
Since Yu Erye came back, the family has been going back to the yacht less often. Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying can basically only come back for a short while at night when they wash up.
After washing up, Yu Jiahui fell on the sofa with his hands covering his liver, still unable to recover from the blow.
Yu Erye's academic level was like a sharp knife stabbing into Yu Jiahui's heart, almost piercing his trachea.
Oh my god, how can there be such stupid people in the world?
This person is actually his biological son?
How the hell is this guy any better than that stupid Anzi from the next company?!
Xu Ying also finished washing and walked over, rubbing her freshly washed hair.
Seeing the old man lying there with a dull look in his eyes, he walked over and was about to say something.
Yu Xiaoye also came over and said first:
"Dad, Mom, I have something to discuss with you."
Yu Jiahui then turned his stiff gaze to look at his daughter:
"What is it?"
"I want to write a letter back home."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jiahui sat up from the sofa.
Xu Ying also stopped wiping her hair.
The old couple looked at their daughter together.
"Which hometown? Do you mean, Dongyang Province?"
"right--"
Yu Xiaoye told Cuihua that her second brother had asked her to write a letter.
Yu Jiahui immediately spat:
"Hey, why are you writing a letter for him? When he learns to write, he can write it himself. Don't write it for him!"
Seeing that his father was still so irritable, Yu Xiaoye did not try to persuade him. Instead, he said with an attitude of indifference:
"Okay then, but I have to tell you this first. Second brother is obsessed with marrying Cuihua, and it won't be long before her mother will marry Cuihua off to someone else. After Second brother found out about this, he was heartbroken and tried to hang himself several times. You better keep an eye on us when the time comes, otherwise there might be another hanged man in our house."
Xu Ying didn't think the matter was serious at first, but when he heard the word "hanged ghost", he shuddered and got goose bumps.
Yu Jiahui cursed, "What bad luck!"
Seeing that her parents were frightened by her, Yu Xiaoye continued:
"Also, even if you can stop Second Brother from hanging himself, he'll be devastated and become a small-time thug, stealing and robbing all day long. Even if you cut ties with him and kick him out, you can't be sure he'll still come looking for you. After all, you're still his parents in name only."
Xu Ying's frown was as deep as the furrows in the fields:
"He's really blackmailing us. We have to find him a wife!"
Yu Xiaoye said:
"Mom, what I mean is that instead of facing troubles in the future, we might as well cut off this trouble now.
Doesn’t second brother want to marry Cuihua? Although we don’t have the conditions to marry her now, we can write a letter back and inform their family first.
Just say that my second brother has settled down here and will go back to marry Cuihua when he earns enough for the bride price.
However, words alone are not enough, and Cuihua's parents may not believe it, so I came up with an idea.
Mom, do you remember that before we came to the Great Northern Wilderness from our hometown, we borrowed money from half the village to raise 60 yuan for the journey?
Xu Ying nodded vigorously.
She remembered this incident very clearly. It took the whole family's efforts to borrow money. After a lot of effort and borrowing for half a month, she was able to barely get enough money for the trip.
Yu Jiahui has no memory and doesn't know what happened.
However, Xu Ying had already told him everything, so Yu Jiahui also knew about it.
During this period, they had just settled down and had just received their first salary. They were not able to repay the money for the time being, so they never mentioned it.
Yu Xiaoye continued:
"Dad, when you borrowed the money, you promised the other party that you would pay it back when you come here and earn a salary.
People believe that you will make a name for yourself here and want you to come and try your luck, so they are willing to lend you money.
Life is hard back home. Every household is extremely poor and it is not easy to lend out a few dollars.
So this money must be returned to them. Why not take this opportunity to send some money back? By then, the whole village will know that you have made money here, and Cuihua's family will definitely know too. Wouldn't this prove that we are living a good life?"
Yu Xiaoye paused deliberately, looked at Yu Jiahui and said:
"Dad, didn't you just get your salary? Now I will be responsible for the food, clothing, and daily expenses of the family. Dad, you can use your salary to pay off the debt.
This month, take out ten yuan from your salary and send it back. This way, you can pay off part of the debt and prove to others that you have settled down here. This will give them peace of mind and they don't have to worry about you running away.
Of course, the most important point is to prove to Cuihua's family that the second brother is no longer a penniless pauper, and that he will have a job and earn a salary in the future.
Will their family still despise my second brother? They might even try to curry favor with him. As long as we help my second brother and Cuihua get together, he won't become so desperate and depraved in the future. We can change his fate and he won't be a burden to us anymore."
The old couple understood it completely.
It turns out that my daughter's actions have several meanings.
I have to say, this is really thoughtful!
"But..." Yu Jiahui began to worry again, "Xiao Ye, your arrangement is indeed good. However, your second brother is a hopeless case. He can't even read a single word. What job opportunities will he have in the future? Without a job, how will he support his wife and children?"
When he said this, Xu Ying also came to his senses:
"That's right, that's right. We can't let him get married. If he does, how will the whole family live? Will you have to rely on selling fish on the black market to support them? No! Absolutely not!"
Yu Xiaoye explained:
"We definitely can't let him get married now. It doesn't make sense for us to support him and
And help him support his wife and children.
We are just writing a letter to Cuihua first to let Cuihua's family know our current situation, and also to let others know that Cuihua and the second brother are together. This may prevent Cuihua from marrying someone else.
During this time, let's work hard and try to find a job for our second brother."
Yu Jiahui thought about it and nodded with appreciation:
"Well, I think Xiao Ye's considerations are correct - but, with your second brother's personality, I'm afraid it will be useless no matter how hard I try. He's just a blockhead!"
"Dad, maybe being a blockhead has its uses. My second brother will definitely have his own uses, but we just haven't discovered it yet."
Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying looked at each other:
What use can that stupid son have?
For the old couple, they were used to their daughter being well-behaved and smart, and it was difficult for them to accept the fact that they were suddenly given a stupid, dumb and illiterate son in a short period of time.
So the old couple thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what use their stupid son could make?
However, they still agreed to their daughter's plan.
