Traveling through time as a goblin, just wanting to live a leisurely life

"Brother, give me half a year. Although I can't free us from this shackle, I can carry it with you."

Looking at his brother who was in deep thought and very confused about his future, the younger brother continued to speak.

"I will help you share the weight of this yoke. You can have your own private time occasionally, and I can also enjoy my life occasionally. Only in this way can we get rid of the tragedy of our original family and prevent it from affecting our future lives."

My brother said this with light in his eyes.

The elder brother looked at the light in his younger brother's eyes, and sighed that his younger brother had grown up, and at the same time sighed that his younger brother still had dreams, which was great.

The elder brother is only two years older than his younger brother, but he cannot find a glimmer of brilliance in himself.

"Just hearing your words is enough. I'll help you carry the load for the past six months. Do well in your exams. Remember to come home after you finish."

The elder brother patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said.

He didn't tell his brother that he couldn't find the sparkle in his eyes anymore, and that it didn't matter what happened to him in the future, as long as he could see his brother happy. He would control himself, otherwise this expectation of happiness would become a desire to control his brother.

"Thanks, brother."

My brother also replied sincerely.

He never told his brother from beginning to end that he was actually very afraid of his mother and running away from home was his way of escape.

He did not tell his brother that he was actually feeling suffocated. If he stayed in this family any longer, he would probably do whatever it took to end this meaningless life that was meant to satisfy his mother's desire for control.

He was not sure that after finishing the exams in half a year, he would be able to return home and pick up the shackles and carry them. He might try to escape again, or he might try to bear it and then commit suicide. He was actually very confused.

Some of the words the two of them said made me feel a lot more relaxed, but there were still many words that I couldn't say that were stuck in my heart, and I kept swallowing them back.

"You two, here is your menu."

Xiao Chen brought two plates of fried fish, a plate of vegetables, and two bowls of rice.

"The boss said that today's menu includes plenty of rice. Call me if you want more rice."

Xiao Chen left after saying this.

The fried fish smelled delicious. The two brothers didn’t say anything else and started frying the fish first.

"good to eat!"

The brother who ate a piece of fish first said.

"This one is delicious too, it tastes like my mom's..."

The younger brother ate a piece of salted fish first, which immediately reminded him of the slightly burnt aroma that had been engraved in his memory since childhood.

Memories in the heads began to emerge as the chewing mouths began to emerge, and scenes from the two brothers' childhood flashed through their minds.

Before my parents divorced, the whole family would hang out together.

After her parents divorced, her mother began to learn how to cook.

During the most difficult days for our family, we didn’t even dare to buy a toothbrush.

At the same time, my mother’s cooking skills are getting better and better.

Life stabilized and their mother took them traveling again.

Someone was pursuing their mother, but she was hesitant. She couldn't let go of her child and didn't dare to agree to the other party. She even asked for the opinions of her two brothers.

Since when did my mother's desire for control become so strong?

The two brothers ate and thought, but they had no answer.

However, this did not prevent them from remembering how much their mother loved them under the influence of salted fish.

Comparing it to the present, they feel that their mother does not completely stop loving them, but compared to this love, her desire for control seems to be stronger.

If they could awaken the love their mother once had for them, would they be able to live happily with their mother and permanently free themselves from the shackles that shackled them?

The sadness in their hearts gradually faded away, and the smiles on the two brothers' faces became more and more intense.

"Next time, should you bring your mother here to try this fried fish?"

My younger brother asked.

"I thought so too. Let's see if my mom thinks the boss copied her recipe."

My brother laughed.

My brother laughed too.

"Maybe it would be better to take Mom out for a walk when you have time?"

My younger brother gave his opinion.

"Okay, I'll make some arrangements. But don't even think about traveling. Study hard for your exams in the next six months!"

My brother said.

The younger brother stuck out his tongue and agreed very much with his brother's arrangement.

"Now that we're full, let's go. I have classes tomorrow morning."

My younger brother said.

The elder brother nodded, put down 20 yuan and left with his younger brother.

Although he earns tens of thousands of yuan a month, he really doesn't have much money left for himself.

As the two left, Xin Chen floated over again.

"Wow! These two have a lot of heart dust!"

Yi Gan watched the Xin Dust floating, and hurried to the grilled fish stall to help take out a small bottle to hold the Xin Dust.

These are all its banknotes, and any loss would be a loss.

"The power of family affection is so great that it can pull people out of the abyss, but it can also push people from the top of the mountain into the valley. If these two people had not been released this time, perhaps they would both commit suicide in a few days."

Boss Tao said from the side.

Looking at the bottles of Heart Dust in my hands, a full 2 ​​kilograms!

"Is it that serious? I was used as a test subject before and I wasn't so desperate."

Igan said.

"It's different. At least you still have your brothers and sisters to accompany you, and you also have a clause that allows you to redeem yourself if you collect enough money. Although it's slim, it's at least hope. If your parents are the people who hurt you the most in your life, do you have any hope of getting rid of this hurt?"

Boss Tao asked.

Igan understood immediately.

This may be difficult for others to understand, but as a goblin driven by instinct, Igan has a deeper and more sensitive understanding of fear and despair. With just a little thought, he understands the huge difference between the harm that cannot be escaped for a lifetime and the harm that can be escaped, although the chance is slim.

“It’s not easy for ordinary people to live.”

Yigan concluded with one sentence.

On this day, Yi Gan witnessed the sadness of ordinary people, and also witnessed the mastery of Boss Tao. When he bought seafood from Yi Gan, he spent 2 kilograms of heart dust, and today the customer gave him 2 kilograms of heart dust for this meal, no more, no less.

The only thing missing was that Boss Tao only sold 2 mullets and 2 local carps, and he still had star grouper, mullet and local carp left unsold, so he could still make more.

"How did you know that 2 kilograms of Heart Dust would be sold today?"

Yigan seriously doubted this matter. He had long suspected that Boss Tao had the ability to predict the future. He had seen what would happen several times. Everything seemed to be natural, but everything seemed to be under his control.

Even compared with the big guys in the fairy world, only You Youzi can approach Boss Tao's harmonious and satisfactory state!

"I don't know? How do you know their hearts are so exhausted?"

Boss Tao denied it.

Yi Gan felt that Boss Tao was playing dumb.

"This Boss Tao..."

Unfathomable!
