Quick Travel System: Age Strategy

Chapter 613: Strategy for the ruthless adjutant of the governor 19

His father wanted to save up forty dollars to redeem her early, so he didn't send his younger brother to school in the first few years and the family didn't eat well.

It took him almost three years of working day and night to save up forty dollars. His father took the family's money and went to the brothel to redeem her.

But the people in the brothel not only refused to hand over the person, but also kept asking her father for eighty dollars.

This is doubled!

His father only had forty dollars in his hand and couldn't afford the price, so he wanted to wipe his face and kneel on the ground to beg for mercy.

But the madam called her thugs to throw him out and beat him up.

After that, he did not give up on going to the brothel to redeem her. The next few times, the brothel owner got tired of him and sent people to watch near the brothel. Whenever Tang's father went there, he would be beaten.

Gradually, he had to go to more and more hospitals for treatment, but he was reluctant to spend the money on medical treatment, which resulted in his leg injury getting worse and he had trouble walking.

But he still didn't give up and would still come over to ask for his daughter.

Only then did the madam tell him that his daughter had died long ago.

It was said that the customer had killed him when he was sent there, and that she had thrown him into a mass grave.

Tang's father went there again to search, but found nothing. He thought he was too late and the child's body had already decayed.

My hair turned completely white overnight, and I felt extremely guilty.

He bought a tablet for her at home, and he also kept the forty dollars carefully.

Even though his leg injury healed in the next few months, he still worked, but he didn't expect that he would suffer from a chronic illness that would make it impossible for him to recover.

Since he could no longer work as a laborer and was no longer needed, he had to go back to his old job as a barber.

I bought some tools and went out to set up a stall. I made some money but my leg injury did not get better and became more serious.

The last time he shaved someone’s head was in a crowded street. When he was shaving seriously, a passerby accidentally bumped into him. He lost his balance and shaved a bald spot on the customer’s head.

Fortunately, the blade was held in his hand and did not cause serious harm to the customer, but this time the customer asked him to pay for it.

When he wanted to find the passerby, it was too late. The person had already slipped away.

In the end, it was Tang's father who filled the hole himself. The fall aggravated his leg injury, causing his legs to sometimes become disobedient and unable to stand up.

My hand was injured and I couldn't make any money for the time being, so the family relied on my two younger brothers to sell newspapers to support us.

Tang's father never touched the money and used the remaining money.

If you live frugally and spend every penny you earn, you will eventually run out of money.

He has been exercising a lot recently because he wants to go out and earn some money to support his family.

Chengcheng felt unhappy after hearing what Tang's father said.

Hua's mother actually fooled her father and lied that she was dead, but in fact she was secretly transferred to Hai City. What's even more outrageous is that she dared to hurt Tang's father.

This also indirectly led to his father mistakenly believing that she was dead and refusing to touch the money.

The injury delayed his recovery and led to his current situation.

The two younger brothers were forced to grow up and support the family.

It can be said that all of this was caused by her. If Hua's mother had told the truth and let her go, would her family be better off now? !

……

In the afternoon, Chengcheng gave all the money Zhou Shaoren gave her to Tang's father and took him to see a doctor.

The leg injury was unlikely to heal, and coupled with the fact that his body had been suffering for many years from overwork, a host of minor ailments had also arisen.

Tang's father didn't expect his leg to heal all of a sudden. During the years when he took care of Tang's mother's illness, he had heard what the doctors said many times, and none of them liked to hear it. In the end, they just poured cold water on her.

He was used to hearing these words and didn't care about them.

Even if he is diagnosed with incurable disease, he will not stop exercising at any possibility.

What's more, now that his daughter is back alive, he will not surrender easily.

He also had to save money and find a way to get his daughter out. If forty dollars was not enough, he would save more. This time he must protect his daughter.

It was dark when the patient finished seeing the patient, and Chengcheng knew that he didn't have much time left.

I bought some food for my family and had a good meal together. Just as I finished the meal, I heard the sound of a car outside.

This might be because Zhou Shaoren came over and said a few words to Tang's father, meaning that the younger brothers' studies had to be focused on and they could not be allowed to continue selling newspapers.

If she continues to sell them, her two younger brothers will become illiterate forever.

Tang's father agreed to this matter, but what he disagreed with was his own medical treatment.

For him, the medicines dispensed from the pharmacy were too expensive and had little effect.

It was not worth spending so much on his medical treatment, so Tang's father said it would be better to save the money for her.

Chengcheng advised him not to think like that, and to focus on the present and lead a good life with his younger brothers. Nothing would happen to her at Paramount and her family wouldn't worry about her. She would come back to see them if she had the chance in the future.

Tang's father sighed, took out the forty dollars and handed it to her for her to keep.

Chengcheng refused the money, said a few words to Tang's father and then said goodbye.

Tang's father wanted to send her off but was stopped by her because of her serious leg injury, so he had to send Hongwen to send her off.

On the path that Hongwen took her out on, she was chatting with her brother.

Knowing that the family can only survive with Hongwen's leadership, from the way he saw the little boy protecting his younger brother during the day, he could also get a glimpse of their situation.

How can you not be bullied if you go out to work at such a young age? I guess I just didn't want to worry Tang's father so I kept it to myself.

Cheng Cheng stroked his hair, held his rough hand and said, "Hong Wen, you must study hard. If you have any difficulties at home, write to your sister."

Hongwen looked at her, smiled shyly and nodded heavily.

"Sister, I know."

"You have always been sensible, but sometimes you don't have to force yourself to grow up. An elder sister is like a mother. Even if your mother is gone, your elder sister will protect you."

"Sister..." Hongwen felt a surge of sourness in his heart, and grievances also came out.

He couldn't hold back his tears and burst into tears. In the quiet alley, Chengcheng hugged his little body and patted him in the way he remembered from Tang's mother.

"It will be better to cry out your pain. Children shouldn't think too much."

After crying for a while, Hongwen felt a little embarrassed again.

When Cheng Cheng heard the crying stop, she held his face and looked at him. Seeing that he was in a better mood, she thought that he really had the temper of a child and would change his behavior after a while.

He scratched his brother's nose, smiled, took out a piece of candy from the bag and put it in his hand.

"I'm leaving now. Hongwen, you should go back and go to bed early."

"Sister, when will you come back next time?"

"It won't be too late. I'll be back after you finish your delicious food." Chengcheng said this deliberately. When she gave them the gifts in the afternoon, she could see that no one was willing to eat them.

It was not uncommon for ordinary people in that era to save food and not eat it, but that was not her usual style.

After talking and saying goodbye to his brother, Chengcheng got directly into the retro car.
