"Huang Jingyang, our class will have a meeting in Teacher 6 at 7:30 in the evening. Please call a few people from your dormitory. By the way, don't talk about the meeting casually. There are some special things to be discussed tonight." The monitor of our class.
Liao Zhuoxin said.
When I arrived at the meeting, I realized why the content of the meeting was special. There were 33 people in our class, but one boy didn't come. The boy who didn't come was named Tian Di. I didn't have a deep impression of Tian Di, and I didn't have much contact with him.
I feel that this person is a bit withdrawn, maybe because his family situation is not very good. He basically works part-time outside on weekends. He seems to also do things outside when he is not in class. He doesn’t have much contact with his classmates, and I am only an acquaintance.
I thought Tian Di was working part-time outside again, but I didn't expect that the meeting would be about issues related to him.
"Students, you may have noticed that there is another classmate in our class who is not here. It is Tian Di from our dormitory. He usually goes out to work part-time, but today he is in the dormitory. I opened this on purpose behind his back.
The meeting of the whole class. Tian Di’s family situation is quite special. Tian Di is usually very difficult, but he is very strong and relies entirely on his own efforts to support everything. Maybe everyone doesn’t know much about him. I just
Let’s talk about his situation. When Tian Di was in junior high school, his father was seriously ill. Their family went bankrupt trying to treat his father, but his father’s illness was not cured. When Tian Di graduated from high school, his mother insisted
He couldn't help but left, and he still hasn't had any contact. It was all Tian Di's efforts to maintain his family's life. After graduating from high school, Tian Di was planning to give up going to college. I heard that kind-hearted people chipped in to send him to college. Last week
, Tian Di took leave to go home to deal with his father's funeral. After coming back, Tian Di's mood has not been very good. I am worried that something will happen to him. So I hope that the whole class will care about our classmates. In order to avoid Tian Di
If a classmate has an accident, no matter where Tian Di goes every day, he must ensure that a classmate is with him..."
When Liao Zhuoxin told the story of Tian Di's family, the whole class was filled with tears. I was also a little touched in my heart.
"For everyone to care about their classmates, it doesn't necessarily require everyone to chip in. What's more important is caring in life. I feel that I, as the monitor, did not do enough. I failed to lend a helping hand to Tian Di in time." Liao Zhuoxin was very happy.
Said guiltily.
Li Chaoyong said loudly: "Old class, I can't blame you. In fact, everyone usually ignores the classmates in the class. They usually play their own things, but I didn't expect that the classmates in the class would be so difficult. In fact, every time Tian Di's
I also saw him running outside after class. At that time, I didn’t even pay attention.”
The classmates in the class expressed their guilt one after another and declared that they would strengthen communication with their classmates in the future.
I didn't say anything because I didn't know how to help Tian Di. It seemed that I didn't have any good experience in this regard. On the contrary, I seemed to see myself in Tian Di. I didn't even know how to help Tian Di.
Deal with my own affairs. Maybe my affairs need greater wisdom. I'm thinking. If I were in Tian Di's position, would I be able to persist longer than him. I originally thought that my parents had to persist for two years.
I chose to give up. Now I find that they may not really give up on me. It’s just that a family wants to live and the family wants to continue, and it seems difficult for them to resist. They once exhausted their family wealth for me, but they never looked back. Tian Di seems
He is exactly the opposite of me. He will take care of his father without hesitation. When his mother chooses to give up, he still persists.
When it was my turn to accompany Tian Di, I felt that the dark clouds in the sky over him had begun to slowly disperse.
"Huang Jingyang, actually I'm much better now. You don't need to accompany me anymore. My classmates take turns to accompany me, just to worry about me doing stupid things. In fact, I won't." Tian Di forced a smile at me.
"We are all classmates. If it is not my turn, I will give up without any principle, right? You have to give me a chance to complete the task. You also know that I am not a very active person in the class. It is not easy to do something.
, you have to let me finish it properly." I smiled.
"Huang Jingyang, are your parents healthy?" Tian Di asked.
I was stunned, then nodded.
Tian Di was surprised by my reaction and gave me a strange look.
"Actually, my situation is quite difficult to describe." I don't know why, but I actually had the idea of telling Tian Di about my family situation.
"Aren't you going to stay with me all day today? Let's talk slowly. I have a lot of experience in this area. Maybe we can communicate and it will be helpful to you and me." Tian Di smiled slightly.
We found a quiet place to sit down, and I revealed the secret that had been buried in my heart.
"Huang Jingyang, do you know? A few days ago, when I heard the news of my father's death, I actually felt a sense of relief. In fact, I don't blame my mother, I can understand her pain. She supported our family all by herself.
It is too difficult to have a broken home sooner or later. When the pressure fell entirely on me, I once resented her. But when I took on the burden, I no longer hated her. I thought maybe
She is free now and can live a more relaxed life. My father did not die of illness, and he does not want to drag me down anymore. I know it..." Tian Di also said what was buried in his heart.
"Huang Jingyang, I know you are different from other classmates. You are the most special one in our class. I don't know why I feel like this. In fact, your parents may have the same difficulties as your parents. Really, theirs
I can feel that pain personally. In fact, when they alienate you after you wake up, it’s not that they really give up. It’s that they feel ashamed to face you. Have you ever thought about communicating with them properly?
?It’s been so many years, why can’t I let go? Blood is thicker than water. I know this feeling best. My dad knows that it is impossible for him to recover. He would rather give up his life than continue to drag me down. In fact, I would rather give up
I am determined to persevere in my studies. However, I don’t have this opportunity now.” Tian Di’s words sounded somewhat contradictory. But I seemed to be able to understand his mood, which itself was contradictory.
After chatting with me, Tian Di announced at the class meeting that he had really recovered and thanked our classmates for their concern for him. And because I lent him a sum of money, he would not work part-time again in the future.
Spend all your time studying and strive to be a good doctor after graduation. Once you have a salary, you can slowly pay back the money you borrowed from me.
Tian Di's words touched me a lot, so I would go to that market often. My parents' grocery store business was good. Maybe it was because it had been in business for a long time. It already had many regular customers. But I never heard it again.
Until they talked about me.
"The purchase price has increased so much, how about we increase the selling price? Otherwise, if this continues, there will be no profit at all." Mom said with some worry.
"How can this work? We are all doing business with old customers. Even if they don't say anything about the sudden price increase, they must have opinions in their hearts. Although the profit is a little lower, it won't be a loss. After all, the storefront is our own home.
If you make less, just make less. Let's put in some new products. If we can sell a little more every day, that's enough." Dad said.
"If we make more money, we can buy a house in a nearby community. In this case, Jingdong's study environment will be better," said his mother.
Speaking of this, Dad stopped talking. The two of them were busy with their own things.
"I'm back." Jingdong was still so carefree.
"Wash your hands. We'll have dinner soon." Mom put down what she was holding and walked toward the front.
I looked at it from a distance for a while, then turned and left.
But I never thought that Jingdong would come to school one day.
When I saw him, he was standing at the door of the dormitory. He said nothing, watching the students coming and going. I stopped as soon as I saw him.
"Brother?" Jingdong hasn't seen me for many years. Even though we met last time, he didn't recognize me.
"Jingdong, what happened?" I asked worriedly.
"It's okay. I just came to see you. You are my brother. But I don't know you." Jingdong's eyes stared at me.
"It's fine. Let's go to my dormitory." I pulled Jingdong towards the dormitory.
Li Chaoyong was very surprised to see Jingdong. "No way, Huang Jingyang, you have a younger brother? Why haven't I heard you mention it?"
I ignored Li Chaoyong, asked Jingdong to sit down in my seat, and went to pour him a glass of water.
"What grade are you in now?" I asked.
"I studied a year early and am now in the first grade of junior high school." Jingdong said proudly.
"How were the results?" I asked.
"I ranked first in the grade every time," Jingdong said.
"My home is not far away. You can come here often during holidays." I asked Li Chaoyong to go to the store and buy back a lot of food.
Jingdong was not very interested in those snacks, "Brother, you have been to the market so many times. Why don't you meet your parents? What can't you explain to a family? I was not sensible when I was a child, so I was afraid that you would take it away.
My love. Brother, I’m not sensible. Don’t blame your parents. You can blame me any way you want. Don’t blame your parents, okay? Do you think they really don’t care about you? In fact, I often heard my mother mention you before.
Every time I eat something delicious, my mother will always say, your brother is suffering alone at home. Although they don’t mention you in front of me much now, I often see my mother wiping tears behind my back. Dad
Although he didn't say it, he was very worried about you. That year, something happened in his hometown. Many people from the village came to Huacheng, and his parents were very anxious. Later, they heard that you returned to your hometown, and they felt sleepy every day.
Can't sleep."
"Do your parents know that you came to my place?" I asked.
Jingdong shook his head, "If they knew, they definitely wouldn't let me come here. In fact, they knew you went to school here. Mom actually wanted to come and see you. Dad said he couldn't come. He said you are so rich now, we
If we come here, you might think that we are here for your money. Dad said, as long as you live your life well, it will be fine."
I know that my father is still very upset about taking away the money I planned to use to build a house. I don’t know what the situation was like on my parents’ side back then. Maybe there were their reasons, but they should have taken good care of themselves back then.
Told me.
"Brother, are you really not ready to recognize your parents?" Jingdong asked.
"Jingdong, if you want to come over to play in the future, you can come over anytime. My brother will visit his parents one day. It's not that time yet. If you encounter any difficulties, just come and see your brother. Wherever you want to play, my brother can do it.
I'll take you there. Don't tell your parents yet." I knew that once my parents knew about it, they might not let Jingdong come over. But I really haven't figured out what to do in the future.
When Jingdong saw that I didn't agree to his request, he was very sad. He didn't eat anything I bought him, and he didn't want anything I bought him. He ran back from the Medical University with tears streaming down his face.
Tian Di's mentality has improved a lot now. Hearing that my brother had been here, he asked me to go to a quiet place to chat again.
"Huang Jingyang, since your brother is here, why don't you take this opportunity to ease the relationship between you and your parents? I know you are very special and different from ordinary students, but no matter how successful you are, family ties are always indispensable.
Missing. If you don't do some things now, you will have regrets in the future. I regard you as my best friend, so I accept your help. I don't want you, a good friend, to have regrets in the future."
Tian Di advised.
"Tian Di, I know you are right. This is a great opportunity for me to repair the relationship with my parents. Maybe there will be no problems as long as both parties make it clear. But I am not ready yet. Really.
, I never thought that such a day would come. I had no preparation. Because I didn’t know what I might face.” I shook my head.
"Some things might be completely different if we had to do it all over again." Tian Di shook his head.
"Yeah, to put it another way, I'd rather I wasn't so different. I'd rather be an extremely ordinary person." Tian Di's words made me very emotional, and a quick bronze medal suddenly appeared in my hand.
I pinched it gently with my fingers. If I had not encountered this bronze medal, what would happen now?
"Sigh. If I could go back to the past, I would be sensible earlier and care more about my father. Maybe he wouldn't get sick and my mother wouldn't run away because she couldn't bear the pain. In fact, my father is seriously ill.
At that time, I was not good to my mother. Later I figured out that maybe my father just wanted to drive my mother away." Tian Di's eyes turned red when he said this.
"I'm sorry. Tian Di, because of me, I remind you of your sadness again." I felt a little guilty.
"It's okay. In fact, how can you forget this kind of thing?" Tian Di forced a smile. (To be continued.)
