After discussing the plan, He Miaomiao stood up and left.
Xue Ling saw her off personally and kept chatting outside the garage.
He Miaomiao suddenly remembered something and asked: "Mr. Xue, why haven't you seen Xue Heng recently? Did he retreat like you?"
"No." Xue Ling smiled slightly and explained: "He has some personal matters to deal with at home recently. Most of the matters are handled by his subordinates and he doesn't go to the branch very often."
He Miaomiao suddenly nodded and smiled: "No wonder... He was not there the last two times I went to the branch to handle tax returns."
"My uncle and aunt are old and not in good health." Xue Ling sighed and whispered: "He is a filial son and does not want to leave all the responsibilities to the caregivers. He insists on staying at home to help take care of the elderly."
He Miaomiao smiled helplessly: "At our age, there are old people above us and young people below, and they are all burdens that we cannot get rid of. My mother got Alzheimer's disease last year, and I am far away in the imperial capital. In addition to sending money to them every now and then,
Nothing can be done."
Xue Ling's eyes moved slightly and said: "As a child, you should do your best."
"I don't want to contribute." He Miaomiao gave an obscure smile and explained: "My office has a lot of things to do every day, and I really can't get away from it. I told them that I can contribute money, but I can't.
Contribution. I have lost contact with my parents in my hometown for many years. My brother and sister-in-law come to me from time to time, and they always ask me to borrow money. Apart from the financial relationship, I seem to have no relationship with my hometown at all."
Xue Ling was slightly surprised and asked in a low voice: "Why is this happening? I've never heard you say that."
"We don't dare to expose our family ugliness." He Miaomiao smiled bitterly: "My hometown is in the countryside. I am the second eldest child in the family, and I have a younger sister. My parents are patriarchal and only want to provide for my brother to study. Who knows that my brother
I was a bad student and couldn't learn no matter how hard I studied. I had good grades in school, but my parents didn't want me to study more. They asked me to go to the city to work and make money after I graduated from junior high school. I insisted on going to high school, but my parents didn't want me to go to high school.
They were willing to pay my tuition and forced me to drop out of school. I could only work in a factory during the winter and summer vacations, working overtime day and night to earn tuition and living expenses for myself. My parents were very angry, but they couldn't do anything about me. They scolded me and kicked me out. Later, I passed the exam successfully.
When I went to college, I thought my parents would be happy and proud of me... but they only gave me a scolding!"
At this point, she sighed: "They said, what can a girl do if she reads so many books? In the future, she will still have to marry someone from her husband's family. They told me not to go to college. They hoped that I would go to the city to work and help.
I make money to build a house for my family. My brother doesn’t make much money from working, and they are all working as farmers at home. I don’t know how long it will take to save money to build a house. My sister’s academic performance is poor, and she has not studied in junior high school, so she went to the city obediently.
I wanted to work as an assembly line worker in a shoe factory. I refused and insisted on going to college, so my parents threatened me not to go back after I left home."
"I was so angry that I took my admission notice, packed a few clothes and left home. When I walked to the entrance of the village, my sister chased me out, crying and stuffed me with hundreds of dollars, saying she had secretly saved it.
My sister and I held our heads and cried. After crying, I took a bus to the city where the university is located in advance and worked as a worker in a fast food restaurant and as a cleaner in a shopping mall. I could only sleep three hours a day and had to run around and work the rest of the time.
.”
"The registration day finally arrived. I advanced half a month's salary with the owner of the fast food restaurant, and finally scraped together enough to pay the tuition. I completed college part-time, and never went home during the winter and summer vacations. I kept applying to live on campus during the day.
I went out to work and stayed in the school dormitory at night. My family never looked for me, and my parents even told relatives and friends that I had died outside. Except for the occasional call from my sister looking for me, I almost lost contact with my family."
"Later I graduated and worked hard to make money, almost desperately trying to exchange money. I worked hard enough, so I was able to stand out among my peers and quickly made my name. Not long after, I received a call from my sister saying that she
She got married. It was a marriage arranged by her parents, to a wealthy family in the next village. She cried and told me that her husband's family was not good to her and she was having a hard time. I encouraged her to divorce and let her
She came to look for me in the city. Unfortunately, my parents found out about it and scolded her severely and told her to sever ties with me."
"I couldn't wait for my sister's call, so I hurried to see her and found that she was pregnant. Her husband's family refused to let her go. My identity as a lawyer frightened the whole family, and her husband promised me that he would be good to her.
, I will change my mind and be a new person in the future. My sister was extremely grateful to me, took my hand and said she would take me home. At that moment, the word home was so unfamiliar to me... I left the tens of thousands of dollars I had saved to
I married my sister and then hurried back to the city by car."
Xue Ling's eyes were slightly red and he murmured: "I must be very tired after walking all the way alone."
"Very tired, very tired." He Miaomiao smiled bitterly: "But I have no choice but to hold on, because there is nothing behind me, only me. In those years, I worked hard, as long as it was
I would take any order that could make money. Later, people in the circle called me the "Desperate Sanniang". My parents didn't know where to go and heard that I had made a lot of money, so they asked my sister to come to me and ask for money.
I had to spend a sum of money to help my family build a new house. They also said that they gave birth to and raised me until I was a teenager, and this kindness must be returned to them... I withdrew 300,000 yuan to them in one breath with tears in my eyes, and told them everything.
Broken off."
"Later I heard from my sister that they used my money to build a three-story building. My brother married his wife the next year and lived a fairly stable life. My parents never mentioned me, only that I was dead.
Outside. In the past few years, they had been sick from time to time. Every time he got sick, my brother would ask my sister to contact me and ask me to help pay for the medical expenses. My sister-in-law heard that I was doing well in the imperial capital and asked me to buy a car for my brother.
They also asked me to send money home to support my parents. I refused, saying that 300,000 yuan had already repaid the kindness of giving birth to me and had nothing to do with my family anymore."
"My ex-husband and I didn't get along, and we finally broke up and divorced amicably. At first, we shared the custody of our children. During those days, I worked hard to numb myself, while taking care of my children. I was exhausted both mentally and physically, and I almost collapsed from depression.
But for the sake of my children, I gritted my teeth and climbed out step by step. My career grew bigger and bigger, and my money became more and more. Later, I heard from my sister that my old father was ill in bed and could no longer work. After all, he was a
The father of my life, I really couldn't bear it, so I secretly sent a sum of money to my sister to take him to see a doctor. Unexpectedly, his illness was too serious and there was no way to treat him, so he passed away soon."
"My mother was hit hard and has been in a daze. She often has to spend money to see a doctor. My brother and sister-in-law call from time to time to borrow money. I try my best to satisfy them and give them as much as they want. I am a mother and I know that I am ten months pregnant.
It’s hard work, and I also know how difficult it is to raise a child to adulthood. No matter how bad the relationship is, she is my biological mother after all, the person who gave birth to me and raised me for more than ten years. I can’t provide for her in her old age, and I can’t contribute anything. I can only insist on doing it.
