Good Dad System [Arc 1] Chapter 13.1: Father, He Is A Great Man (25)
The temperature in the village seemed to be lower than that in the city. After all, there was no shelter around. The cold wind came in waves, and the ground beneath her body was also chilly. It was obviously a serious occasion, but Pei Chuqing almost laughed out loud. She suddenly realized that, the behavior of the three of them who came here in winter was a little silly. She covered her mouth and was seen by her mother. If her father hadn’t been in the middle, she might have been brutally attacked, and her mother had to give her a lesson.
“I know I’m stupid in the eyes of many people.” Pei Naochun said quietly.
The two mother and daughter clearly did not discuss, but they reached an agreement inexplicably in their hearts. It is not that he is stupid in the eyes of others. He is really stupid, the kind that makes people angry and uncomfortable.
“Including the two of you, you should feel the same way.” Pei Naochun sat relaxed, with his hands behind him, leaning his body slightly to look at the sky that was not blue due to industrial pollution, “Actually, I have never been a good person.”
His words immediately made Su Xiuzhen take action. She wanted to speak, but she held it back in her heart. If her stupid husband was not a good person, then there are probably no good people in the world!
“What I said is true. I’m not a good person.” Pei Naochun smiled, “You ask me why I donate money? In fact, more often, I am helping people who were once in trouble and couldn’t see hope.”
He looked Into the distance and seemed to feel the original mood of the original owner. He bowed to life in pain, but was unwilling to succumb to fate. When he was so powerless and about to give up, someone suddenly reached out to him, and his fate changed.
Even if it is the leukemia student in the school that the original owner helped, the prerequisite is that the other party has good grades and needs some help and treatment.
Is it realistic? It’s actually quite realistic.
“I once carried my bag, wiped my tears, and wanted to leave school.” He said softly that the past events no longer caused waves at this moment. “I heard the sound of others reading, and I was so envious. To be honest, I was really thinking, do you like reading much? No, I just know that reading can change your destiny.”
At that age, he simply knew that if he wanted to work in the county, he had to have an academic degree. If he didn’t have an academic degree, he would just go home and farm or prepare some money at home to learn a trade from others. That was the only way to escape from his original life.
“The teacher came to me, and he told me that if I wanted to study, he could help me. I knew from a young age that I couldn’t take advantage of others, but at that time, I couldn’t think about it at all, so I told him aloud okay. Since then, I have worked hard to study and I have got to where I am today.”
“I know clearly that the money I give is like a hand reaching out to pull people, but it can change their entire life. Until now, I don’t remember how much I gave out, and I don’t even remember what it was. As for the people I help, some of them dropped out of school quickly and went home, some couldn’t adapt to big cities, and some left here and started wandering for themselves in another place…”
Pei Chuqing’s mood was complicated after hearing this. Her eyes were a little sore. She was so angry that she wanted to stand up and yell at her father, scolding him for not telling her and her mother clearly. However, after she calmed down quickly, she realized that even if her father said it, she probably wouldn’t accept the other person’s behavior.
Even if it is wrapped in the maple sugar coating that “changes other people’s lives,” the suffering of her family is still engraved in her heart.
She cannot be like her father, who is harsh on himself for the sake of others.
Su Xiuzhen’s nose was a little red, either from the cold or because of her emotions. Her voice was as cold as the weather: “No matter what you say, I still don’t think you did the right thing. You can be a good person, but what about life? What about our lives? What I want is not survival, but life!”
Her husband had apologized before, but the emotion in her heart had never been expressed: “Life is about enjoyment. I don’t want luxury. I want my children to be carefree and happy like other people’s children. When I grow up, I want myself to not have to worry about ten cents every day, and I want my husband not to eat rice bran every day just to help others. Is this too much to askSh
She took a deep breath: “You don’t tell us anything, you just do it, we are family, not friends, I can try to understand your dreams and your kindness, but have you tried to understand me. What about the difficulties of life?” It is said that women like to turn over old accounts, but in fact, more often, when the sadness is unbearable, the pain and sadness that have been endured in the past will be poured out. But now she don ‘t want to forget it anymore.
She was so angry that she immediately wanted to stand up and walk around twice, but her left hand by her side was suddenly firmly grasped by someone. Su Xiuzhen looked over in surprise and saw her husband grabbing her left to right. Holding her and his daughter’s hands, there was pleading and comfort in his expression, asking her to take a deep breath and sit up slowly. Yes, if you want to live your life, you must open up your heart.
“I have apologized to you before, but Chuqing was not there after all.” Even if Pei Naochun was talking, he would not let go of his hand, holding the two of them tightly, “As a husband and a father, I have been a failure for so many years. I ask you to forgive me and give me another chance.”
“Xiuzhen, I’m sorry, Chuqing, I’m sorry.”
Pei Chuqing was a little flustered when she heard her father’s apology. The warmth that flowed from the hand she held with her father made her heart faintly warm.
“I’m not making excuses when I say all this. Over the years, I haven’t even explained to you or applied for it in advance, so I just went my own way. During this time, I tried to show with actions that I have room for improvement.” He said sincerely, “I don’t want you to always be afraid and worried about when I will change back.”
