Chapter 476 What are you calling me?
The audience's faces were filled with black lines!
They watched the show hosted by An Zhixia, which was very time-consuming. Even the ordinary farm meal was enough to tempt some people so much that they had another meal before going to bed.
After dinner, Zhong Kangle stood by to digest the food, listening to Mother Di dancing and talking about what happened in Kyoto with Uncles Di Er and Di San who had rushed over after hearing the news.
As the audience listened to her description, they couldn't help but wonder if this Kyoto was really that Kyoto?
Kyoto is the capital of Xiahua, and naturally one of the best cities in the country.
But now the economy has not yet developed, right?
At this moment, Kyoto is just a little bigger than other places. The streets are cleaner and tidier, there are some tall commercial buildings, and there are several large supermarkets.
In fact, people’s lives are not much different from those in other counties.
Every family has to be frugal to make ends meet, otherwise they will still be hungry or have to eat dirt at the end of the month. Making one or two sets of clothes for a child in a year is a big event that requires a family meeting.
Even when eating stewed meat, you have to hide it, for fear that the neighbors will smell it and send their children to borrow salt and soy sauce. Even the lives of ordinary people are more difficult than those in other cities. A family of dozens of people live in a house of more than ten square meters. When brothers get married, they draw a curtain and hug their wives to sleep.
But the audience still accepted all of Di's mother's exaggerated praise with a smile. No matter how bad the life in the city was, there was no need to dig for food in the fields all year round.
People should live with dignity. It’s okay to eat less, wear less clothes, and sleep a little more crowded.
As for the city, it is a place that rural people are vying to get into, it is extremely respectable!
The audience was so overjoyed that they were at a loss as to what to do.
Di's mother took a sip of water and waved her hand to adjourn the meeting.
Zhong Kangle slept alone on the spacious kang. The mattress was soft and locked in the warmth of the kang, which would last until the next morning. The quilt was also thick and had the smell of sunshine, which would make people greedily take a breath and be immersed in the ocean of happiness.
He pursed his lips and smiled, looking at the tightly closed window, and said silently: "Dad, my son is back!"
Then, his face suddenly turned pale.
In the past, he followed his mother away in the hope of persuading her to come back, but she seemed to be a soft-hearted person like dough, but sometimes she was so stubborn that even ten cows could not pull her back.
In fact, he also understood that his mother was particularly snobbish. She loved herself the most.
When she remarried, she had another child.
Zhong Kangle wanted to go back to the countryside to find his father, but as soon as he mentioned it, his mother beat him severely with a chicken feather blanket.
She gritted her teeth and said, “What are you going back for?
Do you want everyone to know that I treat you badly and force you to go back to the countryside?
Or should I tell others that I am an educated youth who left my husband and children behind and returned to my hometown like everyone else?
My life has finally settled down, please don't cause me any trouble!
As long as I'm still breathing, you should treat your father as dead and never mention him again!"
Just for her ridiculous fig leaf, Zhong Kangle will have to stay for the rest of his life to repay her for giving birth to him.
He finally found the program crew and came to Shedong Village without telling his mother.
He was extremely excited because the next village was his hometown where he had lived for nine years!
But he was homesick and only now remembered that four years was neither a long nor a short time. Would his father have reorganized his family and had new children like his mother did?
Will it?
My father is in his prime and has a bright future ahead of him. There is no need for him to stay with a selfish woman.
The father who had a new family must be like the mother, with his heart and eyes full of the new children. Otherwise, why didn't he receive any news from his father?
Zhong Kangle, who had never allowed himself to cry since he left, couldn't help but crawl into the quilt and cry silently.
It was a kind of hopelessness that came from being abandoned by the world, a kind of despair that was without hope and light. The faith that had supported him in the past suddenly collapsed, as if there was no reason for him to continue to exist!
"What's wrong?" Di's mother was worried that he couldn't sleep well, so she came over to check.
She lived with her son, and although her son was already thirteen years old, taller than his uncle and strong and sturdy, in her eyes he was still the naughty boy who used to fight with her in the yard when they were little.
So she had no concept of gender. She pushed open the door and looked through the moonlight coming in through the window. She saw a trembling mass and quickly went forward and pulled back the quilt.
Zhong Kangle no longer had the quilt to cover his head, and he raised his head in panic and fear. His red eyes and runny nose could no longer be concealed.
"What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?" Mother Di pulled him all over and pinched him, asking anxiously. She certainly didn't think he was homesick.
Zhong Kangle pursed his lips, and the grievance, sadness, and depression that he could not relieve completely burst out when he met the sincerity in her eyes at such a close night.
He threw himself into her arms and cried at the top of his lungs.
The voices of boys in their voice change period are already unpleasant to hear, and coupled with his crying, it was really heartbreaking.
"Aunt, what's wrong with me? Why don't my father and mother want me anymore?"
Mother Di embraced him without disdain, patted him gently and said, "Our Lele is very good, good-looking, sensible and obedient.
It's not you who is bad, it's them who are bad.
You can't blame yourself for what they did wrong.
Others don’t love you, so you have to live a better life and learn to love yourself.
But with their bad examples in mind, you have to be a good person in the future so that you can win more people's likes.
And when you grow up, you will get married, have children, and start a new family.
Your wife and your children are devoted to you, so, child, you are not lacking in love, it’s just that the time has not come yet.”
Zhong Kangle raised his head, was stunned for a moment, and said hesitantly: "I, I don't know anything, I haven't been to school, I can't even have enough food, which girl will marry me in the future?"
"Silly child, since you know where you are lacking, then work hard in that area!
By participating in this program, you will have one thousand yuan, right? Isn't that enough for you to go to school, eat and rent an apartment?
Or are you going to use this thousand yuan to please your mother?" Di's mother asked with a smile.
Zhong Kangle shook his head subconsciously, then he pursed his lips and clenched his fists and said, "Aunt, you are right, I am different from other children.
After participating in the show, I will have money, and I will study for the university entrance exam.
Once I graduate from university, there will be plenty of companies that will be looking for me!"
The child’s world is very simple, and he has inherited Zhong’s mother’s stubbornness, and he is determined to work hard in one direction.
Mother Di smiled and nodded repeatedly: "That's right, I'll say hello to the nearby elementary school tomorrow, you go and get used to it first, and then study hard when you get home."
He nodded heavily, sniffed sheepishly and said, "Thank you, Auntie!"
"What did you call me?" Di's mother patted his head.
Zhong Kangle shouted loudly: "Mom!"
