Chapter 40 Drink This Bowl of Chicken Soup for the Soul
Bai Ansheng clenched his fists, his face was sullen, and his eyes were gloomy beyond his age.
"The family property that my parents had worked so hard to earn was stolen like this, and my father died for it. My son could only watch helplessly as Jin Hong enjoyed the position that belonged to his father, but we... Being poor and worrying about three meals a day is hard for my son to swallow. "
Bai Yunxi looked at the angry Xiao Wu with an equally serious face.
"Don't talk about you, Mom can't swallow it. Don't talk about anything else, that old house was left by your grandfather, your father expanded it, and it was supposed to be passed down as the old house. If you make a mistake, everything will be lost, Mom. More heartbroken than you."
Baiyunxi said, pulling him to sit on the edge of the field.
"There is no regret medicine in the world. It's over. We can't blame everyone. We can only work hard to live, look for opportunities to make a comeback, and if possible, redeem the old house. Even if not, we must build a bigger house than the old house. To comfort the ancestors’ spirits in heaven.”
Hearing his mother's tone, Bai Ansheng was startled. Thinking of the mess at home, how easy would it be to restore the former glory?
‘My brothers at home can’t hold up the wall, so how can we count on them? Thank God if it doesn’t hold you back,’
Baiyunxi was stunned when he heard Xiao Wu's voice. From the first day he came here to now, this was the first time he heard Xiao Wu's voice.
But this kid looks down on the older ones.
Yes, the oldest ones do stretch their crotches, so it’s no wonder that the bullies in elementary school look down on them.
"The family has suffered a sudden change, and no one can accept it, including mother. The life your father created for us is too comfortable. He only wants you to study and be sensible, but he ignores moral guidance."
"But you are not bad in nature. You will naturally change as you get used to it. I believe this."
You have to believe even if you don't believe it. If you can't do it, you'll be beaten. It's popular in this period that a filial son will appear under the stick. If you don't change, you'll be beaten to death.
All the bear babies are selfish and only know how to consider themselves, huh.
Bai Ansheng listened to his mother's tone and looked at her doubtfully. How easy is it to change a person?
I don't know if it's an illusion or the weather has changed, but I always feel a chill in my back.
Looking at Xiao Wu's disbelieving eyes, Bai Yunxi ignored it. She didn't believe it at the moment anyway.
"Mom knows that you are good at studying, so take advantage of your filial piety period to work hard to improve yourself. It may not be bad to be quiet for a while, but you must be prepared to stop making noises and make a big splash."
"A blockbuster?"
Hearing this word, Bai Ansheng's eyes widened suddenly.
‘Ever since his father died of illness, his mother has also started to talk nonsense? Have you never seen her like this before? ’
Bai Yunxi pursed her lips and looked at him, "Xiong Wazi, I'm not illiterate. Not only can I read words, but I can also recite poems. Keep your eyes wide open and wait for me to take action."
"That's right, it's a blockbuster. Your father once mentioned a word to me, which is called accumulation of knowledge, which means that only by accumulating a lot of knowledge and being fully prepared can you do things well. If you want to get ahead, these three years are your chance."
Good boy, I finished this bowl of chicken soup for the soul.
Bai Xiaowu stared blankly at his mother in front of him. He had heard his father say before that his grandfather loved his mother.
Xi Niang was taught how to read and write since she was a child, and later her father took over. Both grandfather and father were knowledgeable people. They had always known that Xi Niang was literate, but they had never seen her show it.
'It turns out that my mother is also a knowledgeable person, but she was just overshadowed by my father's light before. ’
