Investment Life

When he woke up the next day, Chen Yuanming was surprisingly quiet. He didn't speak a word, his expression was blank. Even Chen Jianhua, who had always been careless, found something was wrong.

"Doudou, are you sick?" Wang Juan put her hand on her son's forehead, "Is it because I've been too busy studying recently, so I'll get you some eggs later..."

Just like those words of worrying about money last night didn't exist at all, her smile was still so warm, and her eyes were full of care and expectation for herself.Chen Yuanming shook his head silently and lowered his eyes.

He remembered.The youngest daughter of my uncle's family, Wang Hui, was nicknamed Yuanyuan.A gloomy little girl with a limp.In his previous life, he didn't have a deep impression of this cousin, he only met a few times during the holidays, and he vaguely remembered that she had an accident and injured her leg when she was a child.But he never thought that if he had money at that time, the lameness might be cured...

Memories are like a shriveled water sac, if you don't turn it over and tighten it tightly, you won't be able to squeeze out what you need.But it is often sad and sour to find those things back.

In the days that followed, why did the relationship between the parents become more and more indifferent, why did the aunts never come to visit, why did the uncle always treat the family coldly... a pile of bad debts caused the family to fall apart.He once thought that it was because his family had no money and short-sightedness that he didn't want him to go to high school or go to college, and he only wanted him to go to a factory to earn a solid job.But he didn't expect that his parents had hoped so earnestly for him to succeed in his studies and stand out in the world.

And in this life, he could indeed do it.The best high school in the market, and the first-class university in the country.He is not a genius, but as long as he is willing to study hard, these are not difficult.But what about his family... Even if he can make money, thousands, tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions, it will be two or three years later, after he steps out of this closed city.

Far cannot quench near thirst.

In the classroom, everyone is listening intently, for the final sprint for the upcoming final exam, this is their first chance to change their destiny in this life.Chen Yuanming sat on the seat in a daze, looking at the draft book full of words in front of him, the date that was traced over and over again.

In fact, he has always known how to take a shortcut. He has experience, ability, and the most critical foresight.But subconsciously, this plan has never been put on paper.Just because of his longing, because of his full expectation.Live again, why can't he have a better life?A childhood that was not so worrying, being valued by parents, and full of pride, and a period of not so embarrassing, dignifiedly walking on the campus life of the highest institution...

Unfortunately, he can't get it.

"Chen Yuanming!"

A sharp voice interrupted his thoughts, Chen Yuanming raised his head, and saw on the podium, Teacher Han was staring at him viciously, his eyes full of disdain and anger.

"Answer the question I just asked!"

Chen Yuanming didn't move, just looked back straight.

"You're going back to your old ways when your grades go up?" Looking at the other party's expression of no regrets, Teacher Han's voice was a little sharp, "You stand up for me! How dare you be distracted in my class? What are you holding in your hand? What, hand it in to me! Do you think you don’t have to attend lectures? You can do whatever you want? It’s only been a few days, and your tail is on the sky! You deserve it too!”

Chen Yuanming stood up silently, looked around with his eyes, and saw that most of the classrooms were full of gloating eyes, and a few frowned in disdain.He lowered his head, touched the date again, and closed the book.Reaching out to take out the schoolbag from the drawer, and sweeping all the textbooks on the table in, Chen Yuanming simply picked up the schoolbag and walked out of the classroom.

Surprised by this action, there were whispers in the classroom.Teacher Han was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and shouted angrily when the boy stepped out of the classroom. "Chen Yuanming!! Do you want to be expelled? This is a school, not a place where you can come and leave whenever you want!"

Chen Yuanming turned his head, and took a deep look at this bright and clean classroom, those young and young girls with different expressions, the middle-aged woman who was so angry that she lost her composure... so familiar, so strange.He can't go back.

A slightly self-deprecating smile came to the corner of his lips.

"No need to expel, I quit school."

Amidst the uproar, Chen Yuanming stepped out of the classroom with brisk steps.A strange sense of joy suddenly surged in my heart. Now that he is the top three in the school, will Han Qian take some responsibility for his dropout?But this is no longer important, he no longer has to pretend to be awkward among these children.For him now, there are more important things...

"Chen Yuanming!"

With a shout, the door was violently kicked open.Chen Yuanming put away the envelope at hand and raised his head.His father rushed in with an angry face, grabbed his collar, and dragged him from the bed.

"You fucking tell me clearly! What's going on at school today!"

"Just as you heard, Dad."

"You still have the guts to talk to me!" Pu Fan's big slap slapped down, causing Chen Yuanming to stagger. "Apologize to the teacher!"

"Doudou!" Wang Juan also rushed into the door, "What are you thinking? It's almost the graduation exam, how can you talk back to the teacher! You! Go and admit your mistake, I will be with you..."

It seems that the call was made directly to the factory, and there was a burning pain in the corner of his mouth. Facing the frightened parents, Chen Yuanming shook his head slightly, "I really don't want to do it anymore, don't..."

"You bastard!!"

Chen Jianhua kicked over, and with a loud crash, the tables and chairs beside him were knocked to the ground. Chen Yuanming was kicked and lost his balance. He stepped back and knelt on the ground, holding the ground with one hand.

"Don't go to school?! What can you do if you don't go to school?!" The trembling hands quickly untied the belt, and the leather belt was tightly held in the palm of the hand, "How old do you think you are? What do you think you are doing?! You fucking Make it clear to me!"

"I won't go to school anymore, I want to go out and make money..."

With a whoosh, the belt swung down, and a bloodstain appeared on his cheek. Chen Yuanming twitched in pain, but he didn't dodge it.

"Make money?! Make a fart! Where do you, a 15-year-old brat, go to make money? What kind of money can you make?!" With the roar, the belt smashed down his head and face, leaving bloodstains on every line.

"What kind of madness is this..." Wang Juan sat down on the bed next to her in a daze, her voice was full of tears, "What are you crazy about?! Ah... Could it be that bitch Liu Yun! It must be her !!"

"No..." Chen Yuanming gritted his teeth violently as a whip hit his neck, and shook his head vigorously, "I don't like her little money!"

Chen Jianhua laughed angrily, and stopped panting heavily. "I don't like it?! Do you have hard wings and think you can! Make money? Is making money as easy as you think?! I'm 30 and I only have a monthly salary of 80 yuan. How can you make money? ? Because you haven’t even finished junior high school?!”

Bloodshots slid down Chen Yuanming's cheeks, he smiled, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, "Since I helped Aunt Liu with an idea, she earned more than 1 yuan a month."

These words were like a thunderbolt, causing the two of them to freeze together.Chen Yuanming didn't pause, "I already have a plan and bought a train ticket. The train will leave at 7 o'clock tomorrow. I'm going to work in the south."

"Train..." Wang Juan's lips trembled. She had never been on a train in her life, and she had never even been around the train station. "How old are you, do you know...what will the neighbors say about you?" ...Do you know, if you don't go to school, you will... Mom, please, don't go crazy, okay? Let's go and apologize to the teacher, you can get into the first high school, Doudou, you can pass the exam ..."

Tears rolled down Wang Juan's cheeks, and Chen Yuanming felt choked in his throat. He wanted to tell his mother that in their previous life, they could not save enough money to pay back to their uncle. disabled.He wanted to tell his mother that years of overtime work had broken her spirit a bit. Three years later, she would fall into a deep sleep when she was on the night shift. A group of thieves would steal important materials from the factory and lose her job. Live half your life.He wanted to tell his mother that because of working overtime all year round, his father eventually suffered from overuse disease, and every time the weather changed, he would suffer from a sore back and suffer terribly...

There were so many words in my heart, but what finally came out of my teeth was, "I want to make money, a lot of money. Even if you break my legs, I will go out and see."

Seeing his son kneeling straight on his back and what was shining in his eyes, Chen Jianhua's hands trembled, and the belt slipped from his fingers.His back was hunched, and he seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.Looking at his crying wife and his blood-stained son, he shook his head and walked out the door.

"Jianhua! Jianhua!" Weeping twice, without calling back her husband's back, Wang Juan threw herself on her son, "Why can't you think about it? Why do you ask me and your dad to raise their heads in front of others... It's all about my mother's fault, it's all about my mother's fault... Why can't our family live a good life, why can't you go to school! Doudou, why are you so overwhelmed..."

Something warm slid down the neck and dripped on the bruised wound, causing a burning pain.Chen Yuanming endured it for a long time, and finally put his arms around his mother, "I will make a lot of money, mom...don't worry, I can..."

There was something rolling in his eyes, which made his heart ache.But compared to the entanglement before, he felt a certain peace in his heart.He is no longer that innocent child. He has memories and experiences far beyond his age. He should carry the family on his back instead of letting his parents fall into poverty and despair again.

He can do it again.

Early the next morning, with a small bundle on his back, Chen Yuanming walked into the green leather carriage with more than 200 yuan and an ID card, and embarked on a journey to the south.

Behind him, there were no relatives or friends seeing him off, only a letter lying quietly in the mailbox.On the beige envelope was written a few fair pen characters: Sun Lang, Class 2, Grade [-], No. [-] Middle School, L City Bearing Factory (admitted).
