Return To 1998

When Xu Tongdao came to the bedroom after taking a shower, he saw his younger brother Xu Tonglu already sleeping on the bed as soon as he entered the door.

His house is not big, including the main room, there are only three earthen houses, the east side is his parents' bedroom, the west side... There is a wall separated by bamboo pieces and green leaves in the middle, dividing the whole room into two.

His sister Ge Yuzhu lived in the inner room, and he and his younger brother Xu Tonglu lived in the outer room. The two brothers slept in the same bed since they were young.

Xu Tonglu slept in the bed, and Xu Tongdao slept outside the bed.

The light was still on in the room. When Xu Tongdao entered the door, he saw his brother Xu Tonglu sleeping in the bed motionless.

Fell asleep?

He asked lightly.

Xu Tonglu didn't respond and seemed to be really asleep.

But Tongdao Xu knew that the kid must still be awake, but because he just strangled his neck, this kid is sulking with him now!

Closing the door, Xu Tongdao subconsciously touched the trouser pockets on both sides. Before his rebirth, he had smoked for many years, and he would habitually smoke a cigarette when encountering things. Touching the air, he is now free of cigarettes.

With a faint smile, Xu Tongdao sighed, walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, and looked at the younger brother pretending to be sleeping in the bed with complicated eyes.

The two brothers are only one year apart, and they grew up in the same bed since they were young, and their relationship is naturally very deep.

But the experience of those years before the rebirth...

It made him feel very complicated about his younger brother.

He knew that his younger brother's nature was not bad, and the reason why Yuan Shi-kong took a crooked path and finally tossed himself into prison for three years was mainly because of his father.

The father who eloped with his aunt...not only was very irresponsible, but also made their whole family unable to lift their heads in the village.

Not only in their Xujia Village, but in front of all their relatives, in front of all their classmates and friends who have heard of this, they can't raise their heads either.

This kind of humiliation made Xu Tonglu, who had been arrogant and arrogant since childhood, unbearable. Xu Tonglu, who had been awarded certificates every year since elementary school, has always been proud, but since his father eloped with his aunt, everyone saw His eyes looked like he was watching a joke. Many people pointed and whispered behind him, and even more extreme, even in front of him, made sarcastic words.

This kind of experience, he Xu Tongdao has also suffered a lot.

The only difference is that his Xu Tongdao is not so proud in his heart, and his heart is deeper, so he can bear it, but his younger brother Xu Tonglu obviously can't bear it.

Therefore, in the original time and space, Xu Tonglu's temperament has changed greatly, and he will not listen to anyone, no matter who talks to him, he is very impatient, and he has no thoughts of the book, and he degenerates very quickly.

Xu Tongdao hated his father very much in his heart, but he always felt sorry for his younger brother Xu Tonglu, and even more hated iron.

Tonight, my sister slept with my mother in the east room, so he and Xu Tonglu were the only ones in the west room.

Tongdao Xu felt that tonight was a good time for him to communicate with his younger brother.

Although he was not confident that he could change his younger brother Xu Tonglu with one friendship, he still wanted to try.

He really hopes that his younger brother can become sensible sooner, and that he can continue to keep improving.

Xiaolu, I know you haven't slept yet, shall we talk?

Xu Tongdao looked at the motionless Xu Tonglu and started talking.

But after he finished speaking, Xu Tonglu on the bed still didn't respond, as if he had already fallen asleep.

Xu Tongdao was not surprised, this is the style of his younger brother Xu Tonglu.

So he started talking to himself.

Our dad has no sense of responsibility, he ran away, it's already a fact...

Xiaolu, in this world, we can choose a lot of things, but what kind of parents...we can't choose, it's fate! We can only accept it.

Xu Tonglu in the bed remained unresponsive.

Tongdao Xu sighed softly, leaned on the head of the bed, and continued with half-squinted eyes, I know that such an old man on the stall makes you very angry and makes you very embarrassed... Me too, but what can I do? No matter how difficult it is, we can only face it!

It's like a person who accidentally fell into a cesspool, yes! It's shameful to fall into the cesspool, but the path... If you don't climb out of the cesspool because it's too humiliating to fall into the cesspool, don't you feel more ashamed that you end up drowning in the cesspool?

Having said that, Xu Tongdao glanced at his brother again, but Xu Tonglu still did not respond.

The metaphor of shithole didn't make this kid excited, which was a bit unexpected.

This is to play sleep to the end!

Tongdao Xu smiled lightly, looked up at Cang Ye on the roof, and continued: Xiaolu, we are brothers! Brothers of a compatriot, tell me! Have I hit you since you were young?

no?

Have you ever thought about why I acted on you tonight?

I know, you must still be mad at me now, and even want to suddenly get up and pound me on the bed, I know, you must think so.

If you really want to beat me, get up and beat me! I promise not to fight back.

But... as your brother, I hope you can try to restore your normal heart, and then continue to study hard, I know this is difficult, but this is not the reason for us to fall for it! Because...because our family is now the mainstay of our family!

Speaking of which, Tongdao Xu still didn't hear his brother's response.

Maybe my brother is really asleep.

But Xu Tongdao said here, but did not want to stop there.

So he paused and continued: Our dad is an irresponsible coward! We can't imitate him! We brothers must strive for success, even if it's not for ourselves, we have to think about our mother and Yuzhu, what do you think? ?

Xiaolu, you must listen to your brother, don't argue with me about making money, I'm older than you, don't say a year older, even if it's a day older, it's still older than you, so I can't stand it. Before, you didn't need to think about making money. Your task was to study hard, preferably to go to university. Let's stand up! Can't be looked down upon forever!

Xu Tongdao finished speaking, but the younger brother Xu Tonglu in the bed remained motionless.

In this regard, Xu Tongdao glanced at it, and his expression was a little disappointed.

He really hoped to convince his brother.

but……

If he turned his head to look at Xu Tonglu's face at this time, he would have found that Xu Tonglu had been motionless, his face was already full of tears, and he was biting his lips tightly.

Disappointed, Tongdao Xu stared blankly at Cang Ye on the roof for a while, and finally sighed again, got up, undressed and went to bed, then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

...

The next day was bright, and Xu Tongdao got up early, went to the kitchen to get a shrimp rake and a fish basket, rolled up his trousers, and went out to fish.

The family is having a hard time now. Since there are fish in the field, he doesn't want to waste the opportunity. He can buy some fish and go home, and he can also add a dish.

If there are more, you can sell some money to supplement the household.
