Chapter 11 The Past

Reality proves——

No matter how conceited and arrogant a person is, he still has to bow his head for reality.

When there is a way out, or when you are young, you always want to fight for everything.In the days that followed, because there was no room for choice or time, the only way to go was "compromise".

At a young and vigorous age, of course there will be times when you are not convinced.

But being unconvinced is of no use.

If time went back three years ago, I would not have thought that one day I would step into the entertainment industry.

I grew up in the backcountry and graduated from college before my 21st birthday due to early school start times.By the time I was 22, I had given up further academic studies and had been working for more than a year.

At that time, I always thought that the future would be better.

At least it's better than it used to be.

When I was taking the university entrance examination, I deliberately chose Beicheng University, which was far away from home.

During school, I worked as a part-time student and worked as a part-time job while studying. I worked as a tutor and waiter. Because of my excellent grades, I was able to get a lot of scholarships every year.In this way, I relied on student loans for my tuition fees, and my living expenses were maintained by various scholarships and part-time jobs. Gradually, I had more money in my hands.

After saving some money, I occasionally transfer a little to my family, and at the same time reached a consensus with them not to go home during the holidays.

In this way, from the four years of university to the year after working, I never went back.Apart from transferring money and the occasional communication with my mother, there is almost no other communication with the family.

Each other is also safe.

After graduation, I joined a well-known large company in Beicheng to work.

Compared with other companies, the salary of the big factory is much higher than that of other companies. My working ability is not bad. After I became a full-time employee, my monthly salary has already reached the level of others for a few years, and the treatment is also very good. I just often work overtime, and I can’t even catch up with the last subway. I often sleep in the company.

I still remember that in the early days of my work, I didn’t have too much money, so I lived in a semi-underground rental house.It turns out that in a city as dry as Beicheng, there will be places like this - the clothes and quilts that have been dried will get damp if you don't pay attention, but at least there are complete beds.

Suffering is bitter, but not hopeless.

At that time, I always thought that I was good enough, that I was one of the best in ten thousand, that I was the best among my peers in both school and work, and I was always praised by people around me, and I was the best in everything I did.Therefore, I don't envy those who are born rich, I don't feel that happy people are different, and I don't long for the attention of everyone.

Even if things are not good right now, I still feel that I will always get rid of the status quo in the future.

I thought that as long as I was worthy of myself, continued to live firmly and self-disciplined, and treated everything calmly, I could live a good life.

For a long time, I have worked hard to study, work, and live, and my future can be described as open and bright.

Until my stepfather called me for the first time, saying that my mother had been in a car accident.

The reason why I am used to calling her "mother" unfamiliarly when referring to my mother is because I seldom call her "mother" after elementary school.There is no other reason--stepfather doesn't like it, and every time he hears me shouting like that, he will sulk all day long.

In order not to make it difficult for my mother, I rarely called her in front of my stepfather, and it became a habit later on.

When I was in college, I used my part-time job money to buy a mobile phone worth several hundred yuan, and I gave the number to my family at that time.Later, after work, I changed to a new mobile phone, but the number was still the same.

But the only person who will call is the mother.

Once a month, no more words.

I was sitting at my desk perfecting a plan when my stepfather called.

Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, I was puzzled for a moment, then left the office area to answer the phone.

The stepfather's voice came over, with a vicious tone, and he said, "Your mother was hit by someone!"

He had a bad attitude. At that time, I couldn't tell whether his aggressive tone was because he was worried or because he felt troublesome.

Because of my mother's accident, I embarked on the road back to Star City after a few years.It's a pity that misfortunes never come singly. The injuries caused by the car accident were not serious. During the physical examination in the hospital, she was diagnosed with uremia.

At that time, my salary was much higher than that of my peers, and I had saved some money, but I couldn't afford the expensive medical expenses after all.However, the income of the small shop opened by the stepfather in the county in the past few years is average, which is only enough to maintain the usual expenses of their family of four. Even if they take out all the savings in their hands, there is not much.

The family of four is the stepfather, mother and a pair of children they later conceived.

"I admit that I'm not good to you, and it doesn't matter if you hate me, but that's your mother." On the other end of the phone, the stepfather was smoking loudly, "Your mother has always been sincere to you. You threw it to that family, but insisted on bringing you to marry me, and later forced me to agree to your going to school..."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, and then gave an order in a rough voice: "So you have to take care of this matter."

In fact, he doesn't need to say it, and I won't abandon it.

Also, I don't really hate or hate him.He didn't want to raise me, but he never beat me or abused me.My nature is becoming more and more tough, and cold violence and resentment can't hurt me in the slightest.

Mother... my mother is very hard.

Of course I know.

I still remember when she sat on the threshold and cried.

She is an illiterate, ignorant woman who can only do housework. After her husband died unexpectedly, she insisted on remarrying with a widower in the village with her son who was a few years old, that is, my stepfather.I know how much she has endured the eyes of her stepfather's family because of me, and I know that she could have left me with my grandparents, regardless of whether those two mean old people like to beat me, scold me, and prevent me from going to school.

But she didn't, and even though there was no place for me in this new home, it was always better to be redundant than abused.

Later, she won the opportunity to go to school for me.

In those days, it was common for rural children to drop out of school early.

When I entered junior high school, my stepfather didn’t think it was necessary for me to go to school. He didn’t want me to continue studying. He wanted me to work at home and help him look after the shop in his town. In his spare time, he stepped on a small bench to help in his shop.

My mother disagrees.

Just like she insisted on taking me to remarry at the beginning, this time, she also tried her best to make my stepfather agree to my study.

Later, the relatives of the stepfather often said in a mocking tone—your mother was like a shrew at that time, sitting on the threshold and crying, biting whoever pulled her, yelling all day long, saying The new policy requires nine-year compulsory education, and junior high school doesn’t cost money. Why don’t you let my son go to school? !

I sat next to her and couldn't help crying with her.

The principal of Murakami Elementary School found out about this and came to my house specially to give ideological education to my stepfather.

Then I was able to go to school.

When I was in junior high school, my mother and stepfather had a pair of children, and the focus of her life naturally shifted to the younger siblings.After the younger siblings were born, the stepfather's attitude eased a little.

The family of four gradually lived a stable life.

When I was in the town, the downstairs was the pavement, and the upstairs was the dormitory room. Because of the birth of a pair of younger siblings, the already small home space was even more insufficient.When I was sleeping, I could only put together the table on the shop floor downstairs and use old cloth as a bed.

Sleeping with legs bent, cool in winter and hot in summer, is very interesting.

Later, in order to study better and not to obstruct their eyes, I chose to live in school.If I go back on the weekend, I will act as a head in their store.

Fortunately, junior high school is compulsory education and there is no tuition fee; and when I was in high school, I went to the best middle school in the city, and the school waived my tuition and miscellaneous fees.

This allowed me to successfully complete the middle school stage.

When I was admitted to university, because of my excellent results in the college entrance examination, the city and the county awarded me a lot of scholarships.My mother cried all night in front of her stepfather in exchange for 1000 yuan.

The night before leaving that small county town, she handed me 1000 yuan, a scholarship from the city and county, and a small package—the package contained the little money she had saved over the years, bits and pieces, a few dollars and a few cents all have.

She choked up and said: "...You are so good, my son is so good, and he will definitely be promising in the future. Now it's a little bit harder and tiring, just get over it, just get over it."

"I know." I said to her, "I will take you to live a good life in the future."

Hearing this, she cried even harder and couldn't stop.

After I persuaded her for a long time, she cried and panted again: "Xiaozhi, you can live well outside, don't worry about me, don't come back for the first few years... the first few years. I, your stepfather, and your brother younger sister……"

She hesitated to finish her words.

But in that moment, I got it.

Turns out she doesn't need me anymore.

----

Later, I was spotted by a talent scout and entered the entertainment industry for money.

During that time, I seamlessly filmed various online dramas, and I hardly ever settled in the headquarters of Yiyu Entertainment. I always rushed to another crew immediately after a script was over, and I took on any role. Began to have.

Probably due to my outstanding appearance, the first low-budget online drama I acted in was not a male lead, but I gained a lot of fans with a set of moving pictures, and the company also had a clearer arrangement for me.

Despite his busy schedule, I know that Mr. Wei is the boss of Yiyu.

And Yiyu is just one of his companies.

The first time I met Mr. Wei was a chance encounter in the company. When our eyes met, he nodded at me.

His mixed-race appearance with deep eyebrows and a high nose bridge is really impressive.

I took the initiative to say hello: "Mr. Wei."

He looked at me back and forth several times, as if he was confirming something, his pupils hidden in blue and dark green seemed focused and vast.

"Are you a newly signed artist?"

"Yes, Mr. Wei, my name is He Zhi."

"He Zhi..." He murmured again, his thick eyelashes covering his eyes blocked the expression in his eyes.After a while, he said, "The name sounds nice."

"Thank you."

"I am your senior."

He suddenly said this.

I was stunned for a moment, and after a while, I realized that I asked, "Mr. Wei also graduated from Beicheng University?"

"Well, one year older than you." Mr. Wei explained, "I've seen the rookie's resume."

It turned out to be an alumnus, that's why he noticed me. No wonder there are so many people in the hall, he just nodded to me.

I said, "Hello senior."

His mood improved instantly: "He Zhi, work harder."

After speaking, I left here.

In the next few months, apart from meeting him occasionally, and saying hello, senior, when he came over, I had no other interaction, so naturally I couldn't say I was acquainted with him.

Later, my mother's condition worsened and she needed surgery urgently. Mr. Wei found out about my condition from nowhere and took the initiative to find me.He handed me an unlimited bank card supplementary card, asked Lu Zhu to help me pay the medical expenses, and drew up a new contract.

Finally, he asked me if I wanted to follow him.

I say--

it is good.
