Chapter 415: Teacher Ran: He Yuzhu, you've ended up like this, it's all your own doing
Teacher Ran smiled and didn't speak.
Shazhu let out a sigh, then said:
"You don't know, Liu Haizhong in our courtyard is the Second Elder, the Second Elder in our courtyard."
"He and Second Aunt have three sons, but not a single one is filial."
"Actually, I also quite understand his children."
"As for the Second Elder, when he was young he believed that using sticks produces filial children."
"His second and third sons, he beats them at the drop of a hat."
"Either beating or scolding."
"Second Aunt is the same, following the Second Elder, breathing out of the same nostril."
"You don't know, when I was young I also didn't have a good feeling toward them."
"But now I'm older."
"Seeing them so pitiful, if I don't take care of them,"
Saying this, he patted his left atrium, then said:
"I can't get past this."
"After all, they're neighbors we've lived together for many years."
"Can I abandon them and not care?"
"No."
"Oh, I've gone off topic."
"Let's get back to the point."
"The Second Elder and Second Aunt treat their second and third sons like this."
"Then their second and third sons being unfilial toward them is understandable."
"If it were me, I might also end up like those two sons."
"But."
"What shouldn't happen is their eldest son."
"Their eldest son, from a young age, can be described as the kind held in the mouth for fear of melting."
"Anything tasty is always kept for him."
"From childhood, not a finger has been laid on him."
"But this eldest son is really unacceptable."
"Just like his two younger brothers, he's also unfilial to the Second Elder and Second Aunt."
"This person, sigh, man does, heaven watches."
"This eldest son is just a damn bastard."
Hearing this, Teacher Ran couldn't help but frown.
Shazhu hurriedly said: "Sorry, sorry, I cursed again."
"But he really is a bastard."
"You say this person, since he started working,"
"since he started a family and lived separately."
"After all these years, it's just... damn... oops, I cursed again, sorry, sorry."
"You say after all these years, he's only come back to see his parents once."
"Just once."
"You say, should this person be cursed?"
"Then the second and third sons need not even be mentioned."
Teacher Ran: "You just said something very right."
"Man does, heaven watches."
"This is the retribution for your so-called Second Elder."
"The pitiful inevitably have hateful aspects."
"If it were before, when I was young, I would still sympathize with him, even want to help him."
"But now I won't."
"People like this really have nothing worthy of sympathy."
Shazhu, somewhat unhappy, said: "Teacher Ran, you can't say that."
"Even if the Second Elder has a thousand faults, his children are still his children, right?"
"How can we treat him like this?"
Teacher Ran: "How can it not be allowed?"
"How you treated your children initially, you should think about how they will treat you in the future."
"Only with effort will there be reward."
"Getting something for nothing is impossible, you know?"
Shazhu: "Yes yes yes, I also know it's impossible to get something for nothing."
"But......"
Teacher Ran interrupted: "There are also cases of getting something for nothing; I know people like that."
Saying this, she hesitated a moment, then said:
"You also know this person."
Shazhu frowned, thought, shook his head, and asked:
"Who are you talking about?"
Teacher Ran laughed and said: "You seem to be thinking."
Shazhu thought again, still shook his head, and said:
"I can't remember who it is."
Teacher Ran hesitated a moment, then asked:
"What do you think of Bang Geng's mother?"
Shazhu: "Very good."
As his words fell, he suddenly slapped his forehead and asked:
"Are you referring to Qin Huairu?"
"You're saying she's someone who gets something for nothing?"
Teacher Ran: "What do you say?"
"He Yuzhu, I had people investigate you, investigate your courtyard."
"Of course, I want to apologize to you here."
"Without your consent, I had people investigate you, investigate your courtyard."
Shazhu: "Wait, wait, wait."
"Teacher Ran, you said you had people investigate me?"
Teacher Ran nodded seriously.
Shazhu: "Why?"
Teacher Ran: "After returning from Gangdao, I wanted to find a man to spend the rest of my life with."
"So I investigated you."
Shazhu stared, then asked: "So you like me?"
Teacher Ran smiled faintly, shook her head, and said:
"It's not really that."
"Saying I'm curious is more accurate."
"Because you were single back then."
"I think our meeting again is a kind of fate."
"So I want to give us both a chance."
Shazhu: "Then what happened?"
Teacher Ran: "After that?"
"I finally realized that Bang Geng's mother is a scheming person."
"Over the years, you could say his whole family has been leeching off you."
Shazhu: "This, this is getting a bit serious, right?"
Teacher Ran: "Not serious at all."
"How many years have you been supporting them?"
"I also know Qin Huairu has ruined your relationships several times."
"What is her goal?"
"She just doesn't want you to marry anyone else."
"She wants you to be a long-term meal ticket for her family, an everlasting meal ticket."
"Later she quit the factory and only took half her wages."
"Why?"
"I think the only explanation is that she loves to eat and hates to work."
"Because with your support, she doesn't want to work so hard anymore."
"And you, regarding her demands, can be said to grant every request."
"She took your salary, put all your money into her business without consulting you first."
"I think this is really excessive."
"What's more excessive is that her business failed, she lost everything, and she still had you borrow money."
"And you, your apprentices, and Liu Lan all borrowed a lot of money."
"You used to not be short of money, your salary was high, and you've always been single."
"But you now have no money at all, right?"
Hearing this, Shazhu stared, then shook his head and said:
"I have no money now, but I can ask Qin Huairu for it, and she'll give it to me."
Teacher Ran laughed: "How could she not give it?"
"Because all the money she has is yours."
"To be honest, at first I was very curious about you."
"But after having people investigate you, I'm not curious at all."
"Because I know you can't leave Qin Huairu, can't leave her few children, and can't even leave the elderly in the courtyard."
"Even if I married you, you would keep giving them money endlessly."
"That's something I can't accept."
"Don't rush, listen to me finish what I have to say."
"He Yuzhu, you are very pitiful."
"Really, I think you're very pitiful."
"A man with such good cooking skill."
"The salary is that high."
"In the end, you have not a single cent of savings, and you are also burdened with a lifetime of debt."
"But you are not worthy of any sympathy at all."
"To put it bluntly, your current situation is self‑inflicted; you deserve it."
