The boy next to her was her so-called younger brother. They had met only a handful of times. He was tall and handsome, and he was wearing the clothes of a delivery rider.
He held her mother in one hand to comfort her, and held his cell phone in the other to send a message. After a few seconds, a message was displayed on Gu Ruan Ruan's cell phone, which was sent by this so-called younger brother.
"Sister, don't be angry with your mother. Just let her make trouble and it will be fine. Don't worry, I won't ask for your money. I will work hard to make money to support my parents."
An unexpected text message forced her to take another look at her brother, who was three years younger than her. In her impression, every time her mother came to see her or called her, it was either to say that her son was fighting again, or that her son was fighting again.
My son is at the bottom of the exam again, or he has graduated from a vocational high school, has nothing to do at home, and is not working properly. Now he wants to force his parents to buy a house and get married.
There will always be endless suffering and endless complaints.
So Gu Ruanruan's impression of this younger brother was that of a ignorant little gangster who only knew how to cause trouble. The impression was not good, which was why she had not looked at him once since she entered the house.
So she was not to blame for being suspicious. When she saw this text message, she even suspected that it was a double act between his mother and son, one playing the red face and the other the bad side.
Is she soft-hearted? Not necessarily.
Do you have deep feelings for your mother? Not necessarily.
But during those years abroad, she often thought of how Gu Ruandong wanted to send her abroad when her grandfather passed away after graduating from junior high school. When she was at the airport, no one from the Gu family came to see her off. Only her mother came with her younger brother and held her in her arms.
She cried so hard that her heart was broken. She couldn't bear to let her go. When she was impulsive, she said:
: "Ruan Ruan, you go home with your mother. We are not going abroad. As long as your mother has something to eat, you will have something to eat."
Her younger brother also grabbed her by the hem of her clothes and was reluctant to let her go. They all thought that the Gu family had thrown her abroad to fend for herself.
This was probably the pinnacle of her mother's maternal love for her, and it was also the first time Gu Ruanruan truly felt what maternal love was.
She asked: "Can that man agree to go back with you?"
In fact, at that time, she was already very realistic. Only by going abroad could she have a future. If she followed her mother back home, her future fate would probably be in the dust and she wouldn't even be able to go to school.
After hearing her words, her mother's face slowly turned pale and she let go, but the younger brother kept holding on to the corner of her clothes, and finally her mother opened them bit by bit.
She never looked back.
But the scene on that day was one of the few warm scenes of her mother and daughter.
At this time, her mother stood beside her bed and still didn't leave. After she finished complaining, she said
: "Ruan Ruan, I have discussed it with your uncle. You are too shy to ask Gu. Ruan Dong wants the things your grandfather left for you. It's fine if I go and ask for it with your uncle. Let's spend some money to hire a few people to go to Gu's house."
Do you think it's okay to make a scene in the group? The Gu family wants to save face, and it won't look good if it makes a scene. This store means nothing to the Gu family, so maybe I'll give it to you."
Gu Ruanruan is actually feeling very unwell today. She went to school alone from Lu Kuo last night and got caught in the rain. She probably has a fever and has a bit of a headache. Now that she heard her mother's idea, she has a splitting headache.
She said: "Okay, you can find someone to make trouble, but in the end, don't let me go to prison to rescue you."
Her mother cried again: "Then what do you think we should do? We ask you to go but you don't go, and there is nothing we can do."
Gu Ruanruan lost control of his emotions for the first time and shouted: "How do I know what to do?"
She sat on the bed, lowered her head, covered her forehead with her hands, her temples were throbbing, her black hair was scattered on both sides, and her face was pale.
Her brother grabbed her mother at the right time: "Mom, let's go, let my sister have a good rest, and don't disturb her this weekend."
After saying that, he dragged his mother away.
Gu Ruanruan lay back on the bed and fell asleep. Her physical condition was not good. Colds and fevers were common. She slept until the afternoon when she felt a little more comfortable. She ate some bread to cushion her stomach, then took some cold medicine and continued to sleep.
