chapter 17 All kinds of things yesterday

Following my childhood memories, I walked from the fields to the river outside the village, and then returned from the river. Wei Wei regrets that so many things have changed in ten years. The familiar village has changed its appearance, and there are not many traces of yesterday.

There is no going back.

When I got home, the sky darkened, and the not-so-bright moonlight illuminated the village.

"Brother, you're back."Solene Ingalls, who had just entered the field and was guarding the door, came over in surprise.

Sigismond Ingalls smiled lightly, "Well, I'm back."

Looking at the bright lights in the room, he knew that his mother and Asmodeus didn't want to talk to him and were too lazy to care. He also didn't want to deal with Asmodeus Ingalls and Crepuscula, the mother.

Sigismond Ingalls has known since she was little that her mother favors Asmodeus, which is okay, but she can just use her sister's engagement in exchange for a gift of one million yuan to give Asmodeus Ingalls a down payment on a house. Solene Ingalls has no such obligation.

Solene Ingalls carried two low stools out of the house, placed them in front of Sigismond Ingalls, and sat down on his own. Sigismond Ingalls also sat on the low stool, looking at the field facing the house and the old locust tree that was still there after ten years.

"Brother, you must have suffered... a lot in these years."

Solene Ingalls looked sideways at Sigismond Ingalls's profile, which didn't look like a young man's. It's hard to imagine what he has gone through to make a young man who is only twenty-seven years old look like a middle-aged or even elderly man on his face.

"It's okay."Sigismond Ingalls said nothing about his ten years of experience.

Ten years in the north was not something he needed to show off deliberately. His current identity is not the youngest marshal of Dahua who is respected as the young marshal. He is just Solene Ingalls's eldest brother. It's that simple.

Seeing that Sigismond Ingalls didn't say anything, Solene Ingalls didn't ask any more questions and changed the subject, "Brother, actually, don't blame mom and brother Malachi for the engagement the Dixon family ."

These words undoubtedly admitted in disguise that Solene Ingalls married Beelzebub Dixon not out of his true intentions, but really for the one million gift. Although, whether he admits it or not, Sigismond Ingalls is already very aware of this fact.

He looked sideways at Solene Ingalls and said nothing.

"Actually, it's quite difficult for the brother Malachi. A countryman wants to take root in the city, and the salary is not high. Just relying on yourself, in this life..."

"Is this the reason why mom asked you to marry Beelzebub Dixon?"Sigismond Ingalls interrupted calmly, his tone was calm, and there was no emotion or anger.

Life in this world is not easy for anyone. This is not a reason to sacrifice Solene Ingalls in exchange for Asmodeus Ingalls life.

Solene Ingalls was silent for a moment, smiled forcedly, and exhaled, "Brother, it's actually good to marry Beelzebub Dixon. His family is so rich. If you marry him, at least you will have a worry-free life. This is not a life that everyone in the village aspires to."

I don't know if these words were meant to please Sigismond Ingalls or to comfort himself.

"Did Beelzebub Dixon really marry you?"Sigismond Ingalls asked sharply.

Without Sigismond Ingalls's current status, marrying a young master like Beelzebub Dixon might be a good choice. But the first question that must be considered is, have the Dixon family ever thought about having this daughter-in-law?

Sigismond Ingalls has found the answer from the unreasonable request of trial marriage.

The threshold for a wealthy family is a bit high for a girl who grew up in a village.

The smile on Solene Ingalls face froze. The Huang family was worth tens of millions, and Beelzebub Dixon had an uncle who was a five-star commander. How could a village girl like herself be worthy of him?

She is not Cinderella, and Beelzebub Dixon is not her Prince Charming.

She already knew the answer, but she never said it out loud.

Sigismond Ingalls smiled and took out a check from his arms, "This is a check for 10 million from Huarui Bank. If you are willing, you can give this check to mom and ask her to cancel the engagement with the Dixon family."

This check was prepared for the family, or in other words, for Asmodeus. But now Sigismond Ingalls changed his mind and gave Solene Ingalls the decision-making power.

"..."

Solene Ingalls was stunned, handed over the check in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, you, you said this is a check from that bank that only serves the rich and powerful?"

Huarui Bank, also known as the Noble Bank, serves the rich and powerful in China. Ordinary people, no matter how rich they are, are not qualified to be Huarui Bank's customers.

Sigismond Ingalls smiled and nodded.

After only a second of hesitation, Solene Ingalls immediately put the check back into Sigismond Ingalls's hand, "No, brother, this is your money. You just came back and needed money to buy a house and get married. You had already taken the blame for your brother Malachi back then. For once, you don’t owe brother Malachi anything, so why should you give him your money?!”

Solene Ingalls did not doubt the authenticity of the check, as long as Sigismond Ingalls said it, it must be true. But she knew that if the ten million were given to her mother, it would be equivalent to giving all of it to brother Malachi.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that only the brother Malachi Asmodeus Ingalls owes the eldest brother, and the eldest brother doesn't owe the brother Malachi anything.

My thoughts go back to my childhood. As far back as Solene Ingalls can remember, her mother Crepuscula has been partial to brother Malachi Asmodeus Ingalls. She gave Asmodeus Ingalls everything good, including toys, snacks, and new clothes. The eldest brother and her could only watch.

Not only that, after graduating from junior high school, the eldest Sigismond Ingalls was asked by his mother to work as a busboy in his uncle's restaurant in the city, helping the family to support his brother Malachi Asmodeus Ingalls's studies. It should.

Until one night ten years ago, when Solene Ingalls was only thirteen years old, she was doing homework at home with the help of dim light. The brother Malachi Asmodeus Ingalls stumbled back home from Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School, his face full of horror, his clothes stained with a lot of blood, and he was muttering in despair, "I killed someone, I killed someone." '

Solene Ingalls screamed in fright, but her mother Crepuscula covered her mouth and was thrown into the house.

Hiding in the door and listening to the brother Malachi intermittent narration, I realized that the brother Malachi had gotten into trouble.

He had a girlfriend at school, but her girlfriend was snatched away by a rich second-generation man from the school. The brother Malachi, who was feeling aggrieved, wanted to take revenge. At night, he picked up a brick in an alley outside the school and wanted to smash it. The rich second generation vented his anger and did not intend to kill anyone, he just wanted to vent his anger. Unexpectedly, the footsteps alerted the second-generation rich man. The second-generation rich man mocked Asmodeus Ingalls for being a country boy with muddy legs. He told him to smash his head if he had the ability. You're welcome.

Asmodeus Ingalls head was filled with blood, and he actually hit the rich second generation's head with a brick. The rich second generation lay down on the spot.

Waking up from the daze, Asmodeus Ingalls was so frightened that he did not dare to go back to school and could only run home.

After hearing this, her mother Crepuscula was also frightened out of her mind. How could such a big matter be solved?

In the end, she made an unbelievable decision. She called her eldest Sigismond Ingalls in the city overnight and asked him to take the blame for brother Malachi.

Finally, Sigismond Ingalls agreed after her mother begged her.

He made a request. As long as Crepuscula agreed, he would take the blame for Asmodeus Ingalls.

Solene Ingalls would never forget those words and that request.

'Mom, as long as you promise me to let Solene go to college, I will take the blame for Asmodeus. '

Before she knew it, Solene Ingalls's face was already wet with tears.

If her mother hadn't been worried about her eldest brother who was sent to the army in the north and was afraid that he would talk nonsense, she wouldn't have let her go to college. Basically, it was the same as the eldest Sigismond Ingalls back then. At most, after graduating from junior high school, he dropped out of school to earn money to help the family support brother Malachi Asmodeus Ingalls's education.
