Chapter 45 Young people have a future(1/2)
Author: Fan Yitong
Jin Shang didn't have any special opinion about Mr. Jin Sancai, whom he had only seen in black and white photos.
The family was in decline, and in order to support the family, he raised his young brother. What the cheap grandfather did was basically understandable.
It is only a pity that he has a narrow mind, loves to think wildly, and has a somewhat sullen nature. After his death, the value of a lot of poems, calligraphy and paintings left behind has also increased a lot out of thin air.
He was tepid when he was alive, but he became a famous figure after his death. His "posthumous works" also began to become popular, and he really portrayed the "hell joke" of calligraphy and painting in a profound way.
As for the idea that his mother, Mei Xinghong, had abandoned Jin Shang and almost never met her, Xiao Jin had no personal experience and could not make an accurate judgment, so he could only speculate on his own.
After Jin Sancai died of illness, Jin Shang was born not too long ago. Mei Xinghong might be venting her anger on Jin Shang, thinking that his existence was the culprit that caused Mr. Jin to be angry to death, or she might have some superstitious ideas that she
Carrying ominous things on your body will bring disaster to your family.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain that as a mother, she would leave her eldest son alone and act as if this person did not exist.
Regarding what happened that year, Jin Shang also listened to other people's reports. He didn't know the details of what happened.
Kintoki, who has experienced the whole process, has shown a strong attitude and tendency to blame himself and try to make amends over the years.
Perhaps, "Aunt Mei" had long wanted to change her mind or even reconcile, but Jin Shang was too lazy to respond and never gave him a chance to reconcile.
If you are not there during the growth period when you need the most companionship, don’t be shy and pretend to be a mother.
Why did the precocious Jin Shang study hard to skip grades and graduate many years earlier than others?
Just to prove that you are a genius?
These are all fake. You can deceive others, but you cannot deceive yourself.
The real reason is that Xiao Jin has been regarded by people around him as the unlucky person who made his grandfather angry and drove away his mother since he was a child. Adults may be more reserved, and they won't have so many scruples about children doing mischief.
Although the mature-minded Jin Shang doesn't care much about those malicious looks, he doesn't want to be bullied for nothing.
It's useless to ask anyone for help with this kind of thing, not even Kintoki can help.
So, he quickly skipped a grade, cut off contact with those brats, and entered a new group relationship network, where there would no longer be those malicious rumors. When Jin Shang established himself as a genius, his life would obviously be much more comfortable.
Already.
Resentment?
No!
To be precise, I probably don't care.
As a time traveler, there is already a layer of separation between emotions. Recognizing a father who is both a brother and a father is already the limit. Jin Shang cannot do it by calling a woman who has no basis for family ties as his mother.
Having been a driver and housekeeper for many years, Lao Bian is well aware of the stubbornness and awkwardness of the Jin family and his son.
"Xiao Jin, you have never enjoyed maternal love since you were a child; your father has never experienced the feeling of having an upright father to protect him from wind and rain. It is precisely because he knows the pain that he feels that he really wants to be a good father. I'm afraid.
, in his heart, there is nothing more fulfilling than preparing a complete and warm home for his son."
When I was young and frivolous, I always felt that I could do anything. Afterwards, I realized that there are really no regrets in life.
No matter how many bad things Lao Jin did when he was young, in Xiao Jin's memory, he can really be regarded as a responsible and good father.
In all these years, I have never brought an unknown woman home, nor has an illegitimate son suddenly appeared to divide the family property. Even if I want to bridge the relationship between my son and his estranged wife, I have only made a few insinuations and never tried to persuade him directly.
Whether he feels guilty or disgusted, for Jin Shang, Mei Xinghong's existence is not even a passer-by in his life. He really has no bad feelings towards her actions and experiences. In life, you will always encounter some things.
It's a bloody drama that can't be done in movies and TV shows, so it's not a big deal.
But if she wants to call herself her biological mother, forget it.
"So, this is the biggest difference between me and my father. He has suffered enough from not having a complete family and living in a turbulent environment, so he is very sensitive to this; while I don't feel that there is any inconvenience in not having a mother, nor do I feel that
Having an additional mistress in the family would be of great benefit. Even if my father wants to reconnect with that woman, I will only treat her as a stepmother and respect her as an elder. Family ties? Forget it!"
In the past, I was worried that the woman would interfere with my private affairs for inexplicable reasons when she came back. Now that Jin Shang is an adult who has started his own business, he no longer has to be manipulated by those with good intentions and bad intentions.
As for the rest, as long as Lao Jin feels more comfortable, that will be all.
When the housekeeper heard this, he sighed slightly and said:
"Starting from Mr. Huang Xiumin, the three generations of your ancestors and grandchildren have not been able to save fuel. Mr. Huang did not catch up with the good times and chose the wrong path, leaving only regrets; your father has been smart since he was a child, but it is a pity that his family is unstable and he missed it.
The best time in your life; you are also very stubborn and seem easy-going, but you just don’t care about the trivial things. The really important things are the ones you have made, and no one can change them.”
Jin Shang chuckled and said:
"The pride and arrogance inherited from our family are engraved in our bones. The expressions are different, but the degree of concealment is different. We, father and son, both attach great importance to family, but Lao Jin hopes for reunion, harmony and beauty, while I,
They pay more attention to each family member and don’t care about the superficial harmony and perfection.”
Because of this, Jin Shang didn't want an inexplicable woman to break into his life and point fingers from the top of his biological mother.
"A wise son is like a father. Perhaps your father has guessed what you are thinking. He will not mention this issue much until you become an adult! Speaking of which, Ms. Mei and Master Jin are not very old. I hope that the grievances and grievances in their youth will be resolved.
It can disappear and have a good ending."
While the two were talking, the car turned into the garage. Later, Lao Bian carried Jin Shi, who was in a daze, and entered the house with Jin Shang.
"Xiao Jin, you have to get up early tomorrow to wash up and go to bed early. I will take care of your father."
"Then... I'm sorry to trouble Uncle Bian."
After saying that, Xiao Jin walked into the bathroom with his tired body, while Lao Bian carried Jin Shi upstairs and into the bedroom, then gently laid him down on the bed, poured a glass of cold boiled water, and placed it on the bedside table.
"Master, do you want some water? I put it here..."
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from Lao Bian, he knows I'm awake."
"I have been with the young master for so many years. I can tell if you are pretending to sleep by the changes in your snoring."
Old Bian Yun smiled lightly and said,
"Xiao Jin has grown up and knows how to care about others. But... he is even more stubborn than before."
Jintoki, who struggled to turn over and sit up, picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp.
The effect of Pixiu paperweight is indeed very good. Its ability to relieve physical discomfort and prevent hangover damage is getting stronger and stronger.
"It was like this before. It's just that when I was a child, I would assess the situation and not suffer the immediate disadvantages. Now that I've grown up, I don't pretend anymore."
With such a precocious and smart son who has very good ideas, it is normal for him to feel a lot of pressure as a father.
"Fortunately, I'm not bad either. I've done a good job these years."
At least, Jin Shang himself recognized this father very much, which made Jin Shi breathe a sigh of relief, but also felt melancholy about what would happen in the future.
"What do you think about Mrs. Mei?"
After hearing this, Jin Shi was silent for a while and then replied:
"Remorse and guilt, as well as deep fear. Ashang is a person with a clear sense of grudges..."
"Didn't Xiao Jin say that there is no resentment?"
"Old Bian, the most estranged emotion is not grudges, but indifference. Xiao Jin didn't take Xing Hong seriously at all. Ever since he was a child, he never expressed any active concern or greeting. He was either called 'that woman' or 'Mei'.
Auntie, do you know what this means? If I get back together with Xinghong, Ah Shang won't have any discomfort or special reaction. Xinghong... I guess she won't be able to accept it."
From being a biological mother to being a stepmother, it is even worse. No one can stand it.
When talking about this matter, Lao Jin couldn't help but complain.
"I really never thought about angering Mr. Jin to death and risking breaking the law just to embarrass my stepfather? I'm not that superficial! I didn't expect him to be so useless..."
At that time, many things happened that I dare not even think about now.
The social atmosphere is conservative and the tolerance for many things is very low. If you get pregnant out of wedlock and something goes wrong, it will not end well.
"Why would I take her to meet her parents if she wasn't aiming to get married, have children, and start a family? No one wants a happy event to turn into a funeral."
The story of the Jin and Mei families was dug up by evildoers and spread everywhere. Jin Shi and Mei Xinghong were criticized one after another. After Jin Shang was born, there was another "little broom star".
A few months ago, Jin Shang subconsciously touched the golden broom and activated the "golden finger", which was probably the result of the environmental impact that year.
Mei Xinghong could hide back in her hometown and have her brothers to protect her from wind and rain. Lao Jin and Xiao Jin couldn't even find a reliable relative. It was not easy for them to stumble up to this point and keep the family business.
The old man lamented:
"What happened back then, if either party had made different choices, the outcome would not have been so bad."
"I don't care whether it will be better in the future. It's best not to get worse. Xinghong's temperament is totally incompatible with Ashang. As a genius son of mine, what I hate the most is the so-called care and kindness imposed on me."
Jin Shi, who was nagging and complaining, lay down on the bed and fell asleep again. Old Bian took off his shoes, covered him with a quilt, walked out of the room, saw the light in the bathroom, and walked to the door of his house.
room, and then sighed unconsciously.
"Old madam, your son and grandson are really difficult to take care of. In that era, the turmoil might have been even greater. They are all outstanding people who are unwilling to be left alone!"
Are golden scales just a thing in the pond? What can they do if there is no storm?
Although golden scales cannot transform into a dragon for the time being, golden scales are still golden scales after all. As long as there is an opportunity, they will "turn into a dragon when encountering a storm".
I originally wanted to call Mrs. Xian and talk about the current situation, but thinking that it was already late at night, I had no choice but to put it down, sit down at the desk, open the diary, and write down what happened today in a few words.
After that, I went to clean up and get ready for bed.
