After eating, the mother and son took a nap on the mat and went down the mountain after resting their legs. The basket behind Song Hongguo contained half-dried fish and two rabbits, while Ling Zhi carried yams and wild vegetables and dragged For some firewood, Ling Yuan didn't leave his hands empty. He picked a basket of mulberries along the road and ate them as he walked.

This trip can be said to be a rewarding experience.

Not long after returning home, Qiao Yonghui came to the door suddenly, with a panicked expression, his face turned pale, and he seemed to be unable to speak when he opened his mouth to speak, "You, can you lend me some money first? I will definitely pay you back when I have it..."

Song Hongguo didn't even ask the reason, just nodded and said, "Yes, how much do you need?"

Qiao Yonghui didn't expect her to be so straightforward, or, thinking about it, he was still a little dazed. It's too difficult to ask for money these days, even close relatives have to hesitate, let alone, with his unpopular status, If he hadn't been desperate, he would never have opened his mouth...

Opening your mouth means throwing all your pride on the ground.

Fortunately, things were not as bad as he thought, even, they were much better.

"Thirty, okay?"

He asked anxiously, and then quickly added, "As much as you want..."

Song Hongguo has already ordered Lexus to help her go back to the house to get the money. She usually has dozens of dollars in her wallet, which seems unbelievable to others. After all, the monthly salary of the current workers is only more than 20 dollars. It's a lot to bring three or five yuan, who can bring one or two months' salary with him?But she feels insecure when she has less money.

When Ling Zhi came back, she took out a few from her wallet and handed them to him, "If it's not enough, tell me again."

Qiao Yonghui lowered his head, barely able to look directly at her, and said two words in his hoarse voice, "Thank you..."

Seeing this, Song Hongguo calmed down a few words, "Neighbors are supposed to help each other, who doesn't have any problems? Don't worry about it, and don't rush to pay back the money. When you have more money Besides..."

Qiao Yonghui didn't say a word, took a few steps back, bowed to her, turned around and strode away with the money in his hand, his back straightened, as if only in this way could he feel better.

Song Hongguo couldn't help but feel a little downcast.

The system teased, "Is it distressed? Or sympathy?"

Song Hongguo shook her head.

Seeing this, the system said in relief, "For him, this small setback is nothing, since the heavens are about to place great responsibilities on people, don't they all have to work hard on their minds, muscles and bones, and starve their bodies first?" He will be a local tyrant in the future, and everyone looks up to him with envy and regards him as an idol who succeeded in a counterattack in adversity. Looking back at the present at that time, he just laughed it off. Who would despise him?"

"Besides, since he met you, the gears of his fate have changed, and he is much happier than the original track. Just like now, if he needs money for an emergency, it will be much more embarrassing if he finds someone else. When you come here, you don’t even need to ask for it, you just give it happily, maintaining his self-esteem and pride, isn’t that good enough? Why do you need sympathy? Even if he fell into the dust, he wouldn’t do it with you around Terrible."

"You are his nobleman."

Song Hongguo said flatly, "No matter how successful a person is, the misfortune and pain he has suffered in the past can never be eliminated, and he needs to heal continuously in the rest of his life."

The system is puzzled, "So?"

Song Hongguo didn't have the heart to explain it any further. Can she say that Qiao Yonghui sees the epitome of many people in this era?This special era has created this special group of people. Even if they become famous in the future, they will still be hard to let go of what they have encountered, and it will eventually become a scar on their hearts that can never be erased.

When she read such books in her previous life, she didn't feel much, and some of them were only sympathy and regret, but now she faces it intuitively, although she still can't empathize with her, but it is no longer superficial and only sympathy and regret.

She wants to do more.

I don't expect to change history, but I want to be worthy of my heart.

So, after dinner at night, Song Hongguo asked Ling Zhi, "Would you like to visit Dad?"

Ling Zhi was stunned, looking at her, speechless for a while.

Ling Yuan asked nervously and expectantly, "Is it okay?"

Song Hongguo smiled and patted his head, "It's not possible intellectually, but emotionally, we can think of a way. Most things in this world are just what we want to do and what we don't want to do."

Ling Yuan bit his lip, "I want to see my father."

"Xiaoyuan!" Ling Zhi came back to his senses, and scolded him with a sullen face, "Don't be willful."

Ling Yuan's eye circles turned red all of a sudden, and he pursed his lips tightly, with an aggrieved but stubborn expression.

Seeing this, Ling Zhi immediately softened his heart, and coaxed softly, "I'm not stopping you, it's because the situation doesn't allow it now, have you forgotten what Dad told you at the time? He told us to take care of him, don't miss him, let's live well, He can feel at ease now, the place where he is staying is not safe now, if we go to him, not only will we be in danger of being exposed, but also our father will be in danger, as well as mother, we need to take risks..."

He turned his head to look at Song Hongguo, and said seriously, "You don't have to worry about us. Since we chose that path, we won't regret it, and Dad won't allow us to regret it."

Song Hongguo pondered, "I can find a way to avoid the risk and let you meet..."

Ling Zhi shook his head, with a firm tone, "No need."

Song Hongguo asked suspiciously, "Why? Don't you miss your father?"

"I want to, I really want to, but more than missing my father, I don't want to go against my father's wishes and disappoint my father's expectations..." Ling Zhi's voice was lonely and firm, "Dad's decision like that was a desperate gamble. I can only win and dare not lose, so I don't want to try any risks and dangers."

"Not to mention, you and Grandpa Zhou are involved in this matter, so I can't even gamble. If we are found out, my brother and I don't care, but what about you and Grandpa Zhou? I must not implicate you, my father I must think so, so when we go to see him, he will not be happy or relieved, but will only be worried, so what's the point of meeting like this?"

Song Hongguo, "..."

She finally wanted to do something, but when she thought about it, she was drowned by the cold water of an eight-year-old child?

The system popped up and said with emotion, "Your eldest son is quite sensible."

Yes, it hurts people who are sensible.

Song Hongguo asked again, "Aren't you afraid of regretting it in the future?"

Ling Zhi only hesitated for a few seconds, and said loudly, "I don't know if I will regret it in the future, but now, I don't regret it. Dad once said, take every step well, even if you find that you have made a mistake in the future, then It was only because of my limited knowledge and ability at the time, and perhaps I was forced to make a choice due to the circumstances at that time, so there is no need to regret it, the choice at that time was the best arrangement.”

Song Hongguo, "..."

Although she had never met Ling Zifeng, his bowl of chicken soup made her really fragrant.
