TGDS Chapter 41.5

Good Dad System (Arc 4) Chapter 41.5: The Eccentric Dad In The Chronicles (25)

After listening to what her husband said, Li Xiuzhi roughly understood what he meant. She was always easy to compromise when she met her third son’s request, but when she thought about it carefully, it was not good to delay the family’s life for the sake of future matters: “Your father is right, we are used to hardship, it doesn’t matter, we can save money again if we lose it, and we can always save it by the time you graduate.” Pei Jiancheng nodded heavily. After hearing what his parents said, his heart, which had always been free and unfettered, became especially heavy. He clearly realized that he was a burden to this family, and it was natural for him to give back to his family, not because of his “willingness to help others”.

 

“Good boy.” Pei Naochun touched the child. He only hoped that the child’s heart would not change at this moment. At least he wanted him to remember that everything he wanted was the result of the family’s joint efforts and price.

 

“Dad, Mom, I’m going out first.” Pei Jiancheng stood up, not intending to stay in the room and disturb his parents’ rest. “I have to go back to the city at noon tomorrow.”

 

“You’re in such a hurry!” Li Xiuzhi felt distressed, “Then go to bed quickly and have a good rest.”

 

Pei Jiancheng left the room, but stopped when he was about to reach his own room. He was standing in his brothers’ room, which was dark inside. He leaned in and lowered his voice: “Brother, are you asleep?”

 

“No!” Pei Jianshe was not asleep. He got up and called his younger brother, “Come in, Jiancheng. I’m chatting with your second brother!” They have been chatting about many topics recently, such as how to please their future daughter-in-law.

 

“Brother, what are you doing…” Pei Jiancheng went into the dark and was about to ask why the lights were not on, but he suddenly couldn’t speak. Why else could it be? This light has never been given to his brother since he was a child! He walked to the bed of his brothers and sat down after groping his way. Although the bed was quite large, it seemed uncomfortable even with two grown men lying on it. It was not as spacious as his room at all.

 

“What’s wrong?” Pei Jianlai also sat up, his hair was very messy.

 

“Brother, I…I want to tell you something.” For some reason, he always felt that he should be the one to speak up about such things.

 

“Well, go ahead.”

 

“After I graduate from middle school, I plan to go on to a technical secondary school.” Although his father has agreed, it seems awkward to say it in front of his brothers.

 

“That’s great!” Pei Jianlai was very flattering, “My brother is the most educated person in the surrounding villages! You will be more successful than the team leader in the future!” In his heart, the team leader is the most capable person except his father.

 

“Nowadays, technical secondary schools in the county may not assign jobs to students, so after a few years, when I graduate, I will probably have to spend some money to find a job.”

 

Pei Jianshe understood what he said. Their village was considered clean. The people in the neighboring village had to give money to the team leader if they wanted to get an easier job. “Of course you have to give it. Otherwise, why would they give you a good job? You should spend it.” He spoke with envy, not jealousy. “Then you will eat commercial grain. I heard from mother that the city gives you coupons every month!”

 

“That’s great!” Pei Jianlai was also envious, “You’re really good, little brother. We don’t have that kind of brains, we can’t study, we can only farm.”

 

“I told my parents about this, and my dad said that you guys have to work hard these years… I spend a lot of money, brother, I’m sorry for you.” He only takes in money and doesn’t spend it, and all he spends is the family’s money.

 

Pei Jianlai smiled: “How can it be so hard? Isn’t it the same for the villagers?” That’s how big a family lives. “It’s okay, little brother. You are so talented, and we are happy too! Tell me, who in the village is as talented as you and can live in the city!”

 

“I’m not sure I can stay…”

 

“It’s definitely possible!” Pei Jianshe said confidently, “If you can’t stay, who can? Our family is good, better than many families in the village! It’s not hard, not hard at all! Your second brother and I can earn full work points! If the family works together, we can always make some money.”

 

This is the standard thinking of the eldest brother. He was taught from a young age that unity is strength, and as long as everyone works together, they can exert great power.

 

In the darkness, Pei Jiancheng was able to vent his emotions. There were tears in the corners of his eyes. At his age, he was used to being carefree. Today, he suddenly realized that he had taken so many advantages from his brothers and parents, but neither his parents nor his brothers blamed him.

 

“Brother, when I make money in the future…” he swore in his heart.

 

Pei Jianshe smiled and rubbed his brother’s head, but the flat head was a bit prickly: “What are you talking about! We are all family!” There are grievances, but they will always pass. He believes that family members will not harm family members.

 

Pei Jiancheng secretly wiped his tears and said, “Brother, I seldom go home now. Why don’t you stay in my room? It’s not comfortable to sleep together.”

 

“No need. I’m always chatting with your elder brother.” Pei Jianlai waved his hand stubbornly, not caring whether his younger brother could see it or not. “Your elder brother can’t get out of bed without me, and he will definitely make mom unhappy again. “He looked disgusted,” I tell you, my brother makes mom angry every day, he really deserves a beating.”

 

Pei Jianshe glared at him: “You’re the one who deserves a beating, mom is mad at you! “He turned to Pei Jiancheng again, “Little brother, it’s okay, I’m used to living with your brother. Dad said that when the new house is built, we will get a big room and wardrobes!” He smiled happily. Dad also said that he would ask a carpenter to make him a new bed, a big one! He has already told Bifang.

 

He said, “I’m so old! I’m so tired! Go to bed, my brother is crazy again!” Pei Jianlai gently pushed his brother and yawned, “I have to go to work tomorrow morning!”

 

“You’re the one who’s crazy!” Pei Jianshe punched his younger brother. Why did he feel that his silly younger brother was becoming more and more disrespectful?

“Jiancheng, go to sleep. You can’t afford to not rest well. You need to study.” He was also a little in awe of his younger brother’s study skills. Anyway, he was not familiar with the words in the textbook.

 

Pei Jiancheng walked out to the room, and the young man’s heart was filled with so much.

 

Someone suddenly spoke in the dark room.

 

“Brother, did Jiancheng cry just now?” They were used to the time when there was no light, so they could vaguely see something.

 

“It seems so, studying is really stressful, fortunately we don’t study.”

 

“Yeah”

 

As soon as the voice fell, he snored one after another, and it was time to rest.

 

The next day, when Pei Jiancheng woke up, he found that everyone in the family was already up. Breakfast was prepared by his brothers. This time Li Xiuzhi did not cook anything special – after falling asleep last night, she was thinking about the extra money she had spent on the snacks in her dreams, and she felt so distressed. Without telling the brothers, the two brothers did not dare to touch their mother’s stored food.

 

He always eats very fast, but not as fast as his family. He had only eaten half of his meal when the others had finished. His second brother had already gone to the kitchen to wash the dishes, while his eldest brother was waiting beside him eagerly for the bowl.

 

“Brother, I can wash it myself .” He could no longer do what he did before, throwing the dishes away and pretending to be the boss.

 

“Okay.” Pei Jianshe didn’t say anything. He stood up and prepared to go to work. He was his brother, so why should he be polite?
