The next day, I only had half a day of classes, and the school was on holiday to prepare for the third model tomorrow.

Luo Pengxu's home is in the city, but in a relatively remote place. It takes more than an hour to get home by bus.

Today is his father's birthday. As usual, relatives at home will come to the house for a meal.

Luo Pengxu has two uncles, but they are both forest rangers in the mountains. They usually only see each other during the Chinese New Year. There are only two aunts who often interact with each other.

The conditions of his family are not very good, so he doesn’t have the spare money to make arrangements at a hotel.

Both my parents were ordinary workers, and they were laid off one after another a year later.

Luo Pengxu didn't have a good life in college. His family was frugal in order to study for him. It was impossible for him to have spare money to squander like other students.

It was during this period that my father went to the south to work hard at construction sites, while my mother stayed in her hometown to take care of the elderly while doing odd jobs.

Although their living conditions became more affluent later on, the two elders still suffered from chronic illnesses and had to go to the hospital every now and then.

He was sitting on the bus and secretly vowed that he would not let his parents suffer so much this time. He was an adult and should shoulder the important responsibilities.

When I got home, my mother was busy in the kitchen, and my two aunts were helping.

My father was sitting on the sofa, puffing away smoke with his two uncles.

Luo Pengxu said hello and went to help his mother with work. However, he was pushed out by three women.

"Come in and read a book. I'll call you for dinner later!"

He didn't want to communicate more with his two uncles, one of whom was a snobbery and the other a miser. He had no choice but to hide in his room.

I found a tape and put it into the tape recorder.

Before I had listened to two songs, my mother’s voice calling for dinner came from outside.

Although the Peng family has average conditions, they are never stingy when entertaining outsiders. Today's meal is as sumptuous as a New Year's Eve dinner.

"Brother-in-law, please think about it carefully. The places for my classmates are also limited. You decide early so that I can help Xiaoyu reserve a place in advance."

The person who spoke was the second uncle, who worked at the Municipal Power Supply Bureau and usually didn’t like to talk to the Luo family. He didn’t have any other reason except that he disliked being poor.

But this year, he went to Luo's house frequently because he had a classmate who set up a private vocational school in another city. If he recruited a student, he would be given five hundred yuan in benefits.

After pondering over it, Luo Pengxu, who took the college entrance examination this year, became his first target.

Luo Pengxu became angry when he thought about this. The Pheasant School run by his classmate was closed down within a few years because this person set up a KTV in the school and forced the female students in the school to work part-time. Reporters reported him

.

This news caused a huge uproar at the time, and the whole country was abhorred.

My second uncle wanted to sell myself for only five hundred yuan.

If it weren't for the kindness of his second aunt, Luo Pengxu would have wanted to kick this person out right now.

Before Luo's father could speak, he heard the third uncle next to him echoing,

"Brother-in-law, what are you still hesitating about? If our children go over there, the principal will protect them, so you won't have to worry much anymore."

Luo Pengxu thought about it for a while and understood the reason.

If I really get into college, I will have to hold a banquet. But if I go to a vocational school, with how much my father loves face, there is a high probability that he will not hold a banquet for college entrance.

In this way, the follower will save money. When he sets off, he can buy some instant noodles, ham sausage, mineral water and so on, and then spend it.

Luo Pengxu was furious when he saw his two uncles who had their own evil intentions. His aunt was also unlucky, how could she marry such two weirdos!

Dad Luo drank a glass of wine and said calmly, "The child is older and has his own ideas. As long as he wants to take the exam, even if he has to repeat the exam for a few more years, your sister and I are willing to provide it."

"Tch, brother-in-law, you have a good idea. Don't look at Xiaoxu's brain. If he can get into college, unless there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave of your old Luo family."

The second uncle said with a curl of his lips while picking up the vegetables with chopsticks.

"There is no point in going to college. Let me tell you, my classmate's school is full of high-level talents. Big companies in the south are all rushing to get them. They are much more popular than ordinary universities!"

Luo Pengxu saw that he was becoming more and more arrogant in his speech, openly and secretly bullying his father to be honest, so he said in a strange way,

"Second uncle, your classmate's school is so good, why don't you let my cousin go? Why do you let her go to college?"

After his second uncle heard this, he didn't know how to reply for a moment. He held it in for a long time before he managed to say, "Speak as adults, and children don't get involved."

At this time, Peng's mother also spoke, "This child is already 180 years old. How can he talk to your uncle? He is so ignorant?"

Although he was talking about his son, he was clearly scolding his second uncle secretly.

Luo Pengxu couldn't help but give his mother a thumbs up.

Although my mother is a kind-hearted person, she is also a ruthless person who can spare no effort when it comes to her own family. When she was young, her personality was also very fierce.

It seems that my father was attracted by this.

The second uncle also organized his language and began to persuade again. "Sister, that's not what you said. Xiaoxu is young and ignorant. Then you and my brother-in-law are not sensible? This is a major event in a child's life, so we don't dare to be careless.

!"

Luo Pengxu tilted his head, stared at him closely, and asked, "Second uncle, I haven't taken the college entrance examination yet, how can you be so sure that I will not pass the college entrance examination? If I pass the college entrance examination, you will be in trouble.

Disappointed?"

"You don't need to brag. Your head teacher is Yaoyao's teacher. Do I still know your grades? If you can get into college, I can eat your desk."

He wanted to continue speaking, but Luo Pengxu did not give him this chance, and said directly, "It's a deal, gentlemen, every spit and nail. Everyone here is a witness. If I pass the exam, I will be the first

I’ll tell you when the time comes to come to my house for a table banquet!”

Seeing that Luo Pengxu was talking as if he had eaten gunpowder, his third uncle quietly put down the raised wine glass, along with the words that had already reached his lips.

The meal ended unhappily. The dishes on the table were not touched much, so the two uncles excused themselves and left one after another.

Father Peng's face was a little confused, and he wanted to get angry, but everyone had already left. Even if the people didn't leave, according to his character, the anger wouldn't come out.

Luo Pengxu is so happy. Eating for a family of three is called harmony and beauty!

In my previous life, I was extremely busy with work. In order to catch up with the progress, I worked overtime every three days, but I lacked time to spend more time with my parents.

"You have also seen that if you don't speak up, our old Luo family will not be able to hold our heads up."

"Dad has no ability, so I'm counting on you to honor our ancestors. I don't expect anything extra. As long as you do better in the exam than your cousin Yaoyao, dad will be satisfied."

Father Peng said and drank the wine in one gulp. This scene made Luo Pengxu feel extremely distressed.
