Campus Master Chapter 2559

“By the way second brother, didn’t you pick up both Mom and Dad? Where are they?” Xiao Su Mei suddenly asked.

“This ……”

However, as soon as she asked this, Xiao Guoqing’s two faces were a little unnatural, and the two looked at each other as if they were communicating something with their eyes.

The first thing you need to do is to take a look at your second brother and sister-in-law and you will know that there must be something going on. Is something wrong?”

Xiao Guoqing smiled awkwardly and waved his hand, “Su Mei, don’t worry, nothing is wrong, it’s just that …… father and mother are not at home right now.”

Xiao Sumei immediately asked: “Then where did they go?”

“They ……”

“Second brother you don’t lie to me!” Xiao Guoqing was interrupted by Xiao Sumei as soon as he spoke, “I came back this time, one, because I heard that your health was not good, so I brought Xiao Feng to see you, and two, because I thought that my parents were getting old, so I came back to see them, and if I didn’t see my parents, I wouldn’t leave!”

Although the old father had gone too far in the past and made her and Ji Feng suffer too much, but no matter what, that was still the old father, if not for him where would she be? The old man’s life was not like the old days, so Xiao Sumei’s resentment gradually faded.

The last time she returned home, her mother wiped her tears and pulled herself away from him.

It’s not like she wants her parents to apologize to her first, she has to have this face.

The reason for this visit was to see her parents, but when she saw her second brother, Xiao Guoqing, behaving like this, she instinctively realised that something was going on, so she said something in a hurry.

Xiao Guoqing’s face turned red and he became anxious: “Su Mei, do you think I am abusing my parents? Do you think your second brother is that kind of heartless person?”

Xiao Su Mei immediately asked, “Then where did father and mother go? Second brother, what happened, tell me quickly!”

“This ……”

Xiao Guoqing was a little hesitant, his face was also a little difficult, opened his mouth but did not know what to say.

Ji Feng listened next to him and took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed one to his second uncle, but was slapped aside by Xiao Su Mei.

Ji Feng then couldn’t help but shrink his head, well, the old mother was angry!

“Second uncle, you know what kind of temper my mother has, can’t you just say what’s going on?” Ji Feng said helplessly.

“It’s not that I don’t say it, it’s that what ……” Second uncle stumbled over his words.

“Aiya, it’s better for me to say it!”

Second aunt took over and said, “Su Mei ah, it’s not that your second brother won’t tell you, but this matter, alas, it’s embarra*sing to talk about it!”

There was indeed something wrong!

Xiao Su Mei was immediately shocked and asked in a panic, “Second sister-in-law, what is going on? Is it father and mother’s health ……”

Second aunt hurriedly said, “Su Mei, don’t be anxious, it’s not their health, otherwise we would have told you already?”

Xiao Su Mei then put her heart down slightly, thinking that it was true, if it was parents’ health problems, then there was no reason for second brother and sister-in-law not to inform themselves, so it must be something else?

“Ugh!”

Second aunt sighed and said, “When it comes to this, your second brother will definitely count me out again and say that I’m complaining. But I’m not really complaining, Su Mei, it’s just that you asked, so I’ll tell you about it.”

Xiao Su Mei nodded and said, “Second sister-in-law, you tell me.”

Second aunt said, “This matter also starts from the last time you and Xiao Feng left. Xiao Feng is a kind and righteous boy, he brought us all to the city, bought us a house and found a job for your second brother.

Ji Feng smiled and waved his hand, “Auntie, if you keep talking like that, I can’t even stay here anymore, I’m leaving!”

Xiao Su Mei also couldn’t help but say, “Second sister-in-law, we have said that we are a family, so there is no need to say polite words, just tell us what is going on.”

Second aunt nodded and said, “Thanks to Xiao Feng, our life is better. Your second brother and I thought that our parents were getting old, and father was very sick and almost died. ”

Xiao Su Mei nodded slightly, she knew about this, she had heard about it when she talked to her second brother on the phone.

“But who would have thought that this trouble would start right after dad and mom came to the city!” The second aunt seemed to be full of resentment when she mentioned it, “After dad and mom came, several other families started gossiping somehow, they said that the reason our life was better was because dad and mom had given us all their life savings ……”

The reason why we are doing well is because our parents have given us all their life savings .” Speaking of this, second aunt couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “Su Mei, you know our family’s situation, we are all old people who farm, even if we work hard all our lives, how much money can we earn? Even if our parents had not given us a penny, and we had to pay them back, even if they had given us all the money without eating or drinking for the rest of our lives, how much could we have? Don’t you think that’s a bit offensive?”

Xiao Su Mei nodded slowly, and the anxious look on her face faded away, she knew what it was probably about as soon as she heard it, it was obvious that the ‘other few sons’ that second sister-in-law was referring to were the other few siblings.

It was this kind of mess again!

It was no wonder that Second Brother was reluctant to talk about it, it was indeed a shame to make a scene about such things, especially since Second Brother’s instinctive and straightforward character seemed even more reluctant to mention it.

“Second sister-in-law, you go on.” Xiao Su Mei said.

“Originally, your second brother and I planned to explain to them, but who knew that they wouldn’t believe it at all.”

Second Aunt said, “Later on, Old Fifth proposed that he wanted to join us in the contract work, but you know what the men in Old Fifth’s family are like, so your Second Brother didn’t agree. At this time, other people also offered to take part in the work, and even father followed suit!”

“Su Mei, you also know that the contracting of work is not something that can be done by just a few people, there are many things involved.

At this time, Xiao Guoqing couldn’t help himself and complained, “I told father this, but he said that I had no conscience, that I didn’t know how to take care of my siblings when I was well off, and I don’t know what they told father, but as a result, father and mother looked at me unfavourably, and even some time ago, father directly moved back to the Xiao family estate.”

Second aunt immediately said, “Father even left word when he was leaving, saying that when we agreed, they would come back again, otherwise, even if they died in the Xiao Family Village, they would not let us care.”

Xiao Su Mei heard this and felt very uncomfortable, she couldn’t help but sigh and asked, “Then what is Mother’s opinion?”

Xiao Guoqing said, “What opinion can Mother, an old woman who can’t even read or write, have? In fact, she also wants to involve others. But it’s not that I’m eating alone, they’re just not cut out for it!”

Xiao Su Mei’s eyebrows knitted slightly: “Then don’t let them get involved! Although we don’t have any buildings with dozens of storeys, no matter how tall they are, the quality must be up to scratch!”

Although Xiao Su Mei did not know anything about engineering, her eyesight was extremely broad, and she was often able to come into contact with things that many people did not know about, and she often heard about some tofu-dreg projects, and even things that resulted in heavy deaths and injuries happened from time to time. Therefore, Xiao Su Mei attached great importance to the quality of the project and specifically urged Xiao Guoqing to do so.

Xiao Guoqing said, “Su Mei, don’t worry about this, your second brother is working with conscience and earning money with conscience.”

“That’s good.”

Xiao Su Mei was relieved, she also knew that her second brother was an honest man, not bad in nature, and it was not a big construction company, just a small engineering team, there was no harm.

Xiao Guoqing and his family complained for a while and said nothing more. Second aunt was busy preparing the meal, while Xiao Guoqing talked about some of his other siblings and also about some new things happening in Mang Shi County.

“Su Mei, father and mother are there ……”

“I’ll go see them tomorrow.” Xiao Su Mei said.

“Then if dad and mom bring up the matter of participation, you can’t spit it out easily.” Xiao Guoqing said, “It’s really not that I’m not willing to help, it’s really because none of them are material for this, even if I have to take out some money every year I’m willing, my parents there I’m also willing to raise alone, and I don’t want a single mu of the family land! Moreover, apart from the oldest three, several other families are still living OK ……”

“Second brother, I have a measure.” Xiao Su Mei said.

Xiao Guoqing was only slightly relieved, but couldn’t help but sigh, other families’ siblings could all get along well, but how come their old Xiao family was in this mess!

In the past, when the family was poor, the eldest and his siblings were doing well, but when the old man was sick, they didn’t even ask him, let alone help him, and now when they saw that he was making money from the project, they all came around like sharks who had smelled something fishy, and even encouraged his parents to force him.

“Then I’ll go back with you tomorrow and see if I can get my parents back.” Xiao Guoqing said, saying he couldn’t help but shake his head again, “I’ve gone to pick them up three or four times, but every time I’ve been chopped up and counted ……”

“Tomorrow I will go and talk to them.” Xiao Su Mei said, she was also a little angry in her heart, these people’s behavior, more or less unbecoming.
