Confession of Rebirth

When Gu Chen went downstairs, the Gu family had already set up the table and set up the dishes.There were three tables full of people, but Gu Chen didn't see Yang Fan.

Gu's father said: "... I got up early and left. I said I was worried about my wife and children. I left after breakfast. Your mother also brought fifty eggs, half a rib, and two bags of dried beans, cucumbers, money and potatoes. People will send you back at night, and it’s still Chinese New Year’s Eve, so you can’t let them go away empty-handed.”

Gu Chen nodded and found a seat to sit down.

Mother Gu and Gu Xiu also came down.Gu Xiu walked behind Gu's mother, looking aggrieved.When sitting down, he still refused to sit at the child's table, and refused to leave by Mama Gu's side.

Aunt Gu Chen didn't like to look at Gu Xiu like that, so she picked up the bowl and chopsticks and went to sit next to Gu Chen.

After breakfast, Mother Gu said calmly, "Shen Chen, Xiu Xiu, you two come to the study."

The cousin of the Gu family was excited, and went to Gu Chen's side and whispered gossip: "What's the matter? Why did I see the aura of our class teacher in the aunt? Are you and brother Xiuxiu making my aunt angry?"

Although Gu's mother has a gentle temper and is easy to talk to, the younger generations of the Gu family have always been afraid of Gu's mother.It's because Gu's mother, as a primary school teacher in Gu's Village, really has the dignity of being a teacher when she becomes serious.It can be called the "childhood shadow" of the Gu family's juniors.

Gu Chen didn't speak, and followed Mother Gu to the study on the second floor.

Gu's mother poured a cup of tea for each of the two children: "I always thought that the two of you were brothers who grew up together. If there is any misunderstanding, just let it go—"

"There is no misunderstanding!" Gu Chen interrupted Gu's mother, and said forcefully: "I said, I don't care if you are willing to treat him as your own son, but I will not harm my own interests because of him."

"Shen Chen!" Mother Gu looked at Gu Chen helplessly.Knowing a son is like a mother, of course mother Gu knows what kind of personality her son has.It's not that Gu's mother is bragging, but Gu Chen in her impression has never been a person who particularly cares about personal interests.Now he keeps emphasizing that he will not harm his personal interests because of Gu Xiu. It must be that Gu Xiu did something first to anger Gu Chen, so that Gu Chen has such an idea.

But in Gu's mother's heart, Gu Xiu is also a very well-behaved and sensible child.Although occasionally squeamish, her disposition is still good.Gu's mother didn't believe that Gu Xiu would do something that deliberately harmed her brother's interests.There must be some misunderstanding.

One is Bao, who was born in October of her own pregnancy, and the other is a child who has been carefully raised for 18 years.The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat.Of course, Gu's mother persuaded her if she could, but she couldn't just watch the two brothers turn against each other.

"Xiuxiu. Tell me first." Gu's mother said, "What did you do that harmed my brother's interests and hurt my brother?"

"I didn't." Gu Xiu was particularly wronged: "I really didn't do anything to offend my brother. It's because my brother misunderstood me."

"Really?" Gu's mother took a look at Gu Xiu, and then asked Gu Chen: "Then tell me, what did Gu Xiu do that dissatisfied you and felt that it harmed your interests?"

Gu Chen didn't want to say it at first.But he also knows the character of Gu's mother. If there is no answer, this matter will not end: "He reported on the first day of school, and he went around the school to promote that he is the adopted son of the Gu family. What he said was me as a brother I usually bully him and abuse him, lead students to misunderstand me, and gain sympathy for myself."

"I didn't!" Gu Xiu immediately retorted: "I never thought of this. They misunderstood. I have always said that my brother is very good to me, and my parents are very good to me. I have never complained about the Gu family. It's not good for me. I just feel that my life is bad, and I haven't seen my biological parents since I was a child. But even if I am the adopted son of the Gu family, my parents and brother are very kind to me. "

"...But we never regarded you as an adopted one." Gu's mother looked at Gu Xiu, a little hesitant: "Why do you mind such things?" Still talking about it in the school with great fanfare?

Is it really like what Gu Chen said, that in Gu Xiu's heart, she has always been thinking about finding her biological parents?

Gu's mother hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Xiuxiu, are you unhappy in Gu's family? Do you really want to find your biological parents?"

Looking at Gu's mother's eyes, Gu Xiu was inexplicably flustered: "I, I, I..."

"This is also very normal." Seeing Gu Xiu's panicked face, although Gu's mother felt a little lost in her heart, she still smiled and comforted Gu Xiu: "Everyone wants their own biological parents. This is human nature. In fact, at the beginning I picked you up, and I called the police as soon as possible, trying to find out where your parents are. But we really have no clue."

The police even suspected that Gu Xiu was an abandoned baby who was deliberately abandoned.It is guessed that there is something wrong with Gu Xiu that he was abandoned by his parents.In order to verify this, Gu's father and Gu's mother took Gu Xiu to the hospital for an examination.The final diagnosis was that Gu Xiu was a healthy baby boy.

"At that time, the opinion of the police station was that we should hand over the child to the orphanage." But Gu's parents and Gu's mother had been raising Gu Xiu for more than 20 days.When Gu Xiu was young, she was very cute, like a piece of dough.About the same age as Gu Chen.The two babies were placed in a cradle.Gu Chen grabbed Gu Xiu's little quilt every day.When I woke up from sleep, I cried when I couldn't see my brother.Cry heart-piercingly.My voice is hoarse.

Gu's father and Gu's mother had no choice but to adopt Gu Xiu in the end.

Hearing this, Gu Chen sneered, "It turns out I did it myself."

Gu Xiu clenched his fists a little hurt, and lowered his head sadly: it turns out that his parents didn't really love him.It was because Gu Chen was adopted that he would not cry.

Sure enough, they are not biological parents, love is different.

When Gu's mother mentioned these old events, she intended to say that the two brothers had a fate since they were young, but she didn't expect that it would be self-defeating, which would make the two of them even more jealous.

Gu's mother was a little helpless, so she had to change the subject immediately: "Is there anything else? You won't be born like this because of such a trivial matter, right?"

Gu Xiu felt wronged by herself, with a look of despair.Gu Chen had no choice but to say: "I went to work part-time in the sales office, and he spread rumors that I was drinking with dubious people, and that I was being taken care of by a client."

"I didn't say that." Gu Xiu immediately explained: "It was all Wang Miao and Xia Tian's guess. I didn't say anything."

Gu Chen sneered.

Gu's mother glanced at Gu Chen, and then asked Gu Xiu: "Then did you clarify for brother?"

Gu Xiu nodded immediately: "Of course I helped my brother—"

"He told others that I have been liked since I was a child, and the elders in Gu's Village often gave me food and drinks. Success makes people think that I have been used to receiving things from others since I was a child." Gu Chen said lightly.

Gu Xiu was speechless for a moment.After thinking about it, he explained with some lack of confidence: "That's the way it is! How did I know they would be biased."

"Then you are quite good. Every time you make a speech that seems to help me, the result is very clear." Gu Chen said.

Listening to the confrontation between the two brothers, Gu's mother didn't speak for a long time.

"It's all these trivial things." Gu Chen said, "I didn't want to tell you. I was afraid that you would think I made a fuss over a molehill. But it was these trivial things that almost turned your son into a violent and arrogant character. A little bit of profit is taken care of by a rich woman, bullying roommates, and bullying the bad guys who adopted younger brothers."

"Even so, I just wanted to keep a respectful distance at the beginning, as long as everyone does not violate the river water. But he doesn't know what kind of crazy, because of that shameful calculation, he calls you every day, trying to put pressure on me through you ...He was the most diligent in calling you at that time, right?"

Mother Gu didn't speak.

Gu Xiu looked at Gu's mother's attitude and was a little flustered.Asked Gu Chen: "Why do you slander me so much? Could it be that, as the son of my parents, even calling home has become ulterior motives?"

"Ask yourself!" Gu Chen broke through Gu Xiu's fig leaf unceremoniously: "Apart from that time, have you ever called home?"

Gu Xiu was speechless.After thinking about it, he reluctantly added: "Isn't that because the final exam is coming soon! I'm also busy with my revision—you don't call home too often!"

"I call once a week." Gu Chen said.He will not break the agreement easily.No matter how busy you are, you still have enough time to make a phone call to report your safety in a week.

Gu Xiu stopped talking.

Gu Chen said: "Whether a person has a heart is not just a matter of words. If you really have your parents in your heart, you won't come back empty-handed after the Chinese New Year."

"I didn't!" Gu Xiu said in a hurry: "Don't slander me. I can't carry it! I have to call a car to go to the airport by myself, and I have to carry such a heavy luggage. I can't handle it at all. Come on. Do you think everyone is like you, and there are so many rich friends driving you?"

"If you're willing to ask President Zhongli to give me a break, I won't forget to buy gifts for my parents. I think you did it on purpose. Target me deliberately, and then provoke discord in front of my parents—"

"Xiuxiu." Gu's mother interrupted Gu Xiu's words with a dignified expression: "How can you think of brother so much?"

"Originally!" Gu Xiu looked at Gu's mother very dissatisfied: "He clearly deliberately made things difficult for me. He could teach me to organize data, but he kept his secrets and refused to teach. It caused me to be disgusted when I went to Professor Xing. He knows so many people and is so popular in school, yet he allows me to be looked down upon by other students, and never gives me a hand. He said that I am close to Wang Miao and Xia Tian, ​​and he himself is not with that Cheng Yi who looks down on me Calling him a brother? My friend can't stand Cheng Yi bullying me, and he still refuses to help me get ahead! Double standards are disgusting!"

"He didn't think of me as a brother at all."

Looking at Gu Xiu's slightly ferocious face, Gu's mother couldn't help but feel stagnant.His chest was so constricted that he could hardly breathe.She turned her head to look at Gu Chen.Gu Chen said calmly: "I have a lot of things and I am very busy every day. I don't have time to teach him. In his eyes, it has become my fault."

"Mom, didn't you tell us from a young age that helping others is a matter of affection, and not helping others is a duty. Now that I do my duty, in the eyes of Gu Xiu, I have no affection. Don't you think his logic is ridiculous?"

Gu's mother looked at Gu Xiu, and said with a little difficulty: "Since my brother is very busy, I don't have time to teach you. It's not my brother's fault. You are so sensible, can't you be considerate of your brother?"

Gu Xiu: "..."

Gu Xiu looked at Gu's mother in disbelief: "How can you say that about me? Could it be that in your heart, I want my brother to help me, are you just ignorant?"

Mother Gu frowned: "That's not what I meant—"

"Enough!" Gu Xiu interrupted Gu's mother, with a look of grief and indignation: "I understand it. You are just like them. You don't even think of me as the Gu family. You say that the two sons are the same. See if I will If it affects the interests of your own son, immediately stand on his side and speak for him, no matter how much I have been wronged!"

"Sure enough, the ones I picked up were different." Gu Xiu wiped the tears from his face, feeling his heart was broken: "I have always regarded you as my own parents, but you have never regarded me as your own son. In your hearts, I am completely different from Gu Chen. He is your own."

"I'm really fed up!" Gu Xiu said, got up and rushed out.Back in the room, sobbing, I started to pack my luggage.

Gu's mother followed behind, and when she saw this posture, she immediately became anxious: "Xiu Xiu, what are you doing..."

"I want to leave here." Gu Xiu cried and said, "If you don't welcome me, I'll leave. I won't delay your family reunion."

The noisy sound spread downstairs, and all the relatives of the Gu family came up.
