chapter 2 sister-in-law

Of course Philip Lu didn't know what the beautiful landlady was thinking, so he sent her downstairs with a lot of gratitude. He happily looked forward to the days of making money, touched his empty trouser pockets, and secretly swore in his heart that no matter how dirty or tiring this work was, I must grit my teeth and keep working. As long as I can make money, my sister-in-law won't have to work so hard.

For Xu Qing, whose parents died when he was young, his eldest Elder Brother Leon Xu and sister-in-law Celeste Qin are his closest relatives. Since his eldest Elder Brother was diagnosed with uremia the year before last, all the burdens have fallen on Celeste Qin not broad shoulders. , uremia is the most tormenting disease.

Dialysis treatment alone is an expensive expense for sick people. Celeste Qin quickly spent all the couple's small savings and borrowed everything they could. However, Leon Xu's condition still entered an advanced stage and he needed a kidney transplant. , is the only chance of survival, Philip Lu decided to give one of his kidneys to his eldest Elder Brother without hesitation, but the development of things is often unexpected.

Match, damn match, the doctor actually told Philip Lu that the match was unsuccessful. In other words, the two brothers who had lived under the same roof for more than ten years were not actually brothers.

This unexpected news hit Philip Lu like a bolt from the blue, shattering the couple's last hope. Leon Xu left. Before leaving, he held his wife's hand and told her to treat Philip Lu well and at least let her He finished reading.

Celeste Qin agreed with tears in her eyes. After simply handling her husband's funeral, she was heavily in debt and resolutely chose to take her unrelated brother-in-law south to work. At the same time, she rejected Philip Lu request to drop out of school and make money dozens of times, and went through all kinds of hardships. Finally, he became a senior transfer student in Jiangcheng First Middle School) Middle School.

Promise is just a tongue-in-cheek thing for some people, but for Celeste Qin, it means a kind of responsibility, another burden on her shoulders, even a few strands of white hair on her temples, and the corners of her eyes. Two wrinkles.

Philip Lu grades have always been top-notch, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have to pay tuition. On the contrary, Celeste Qin put in more unknown hardships to get him to join the class.

After a day's work, Celeste Qin dragged her exhausted body back downstairs to the rental house. It was already one o'clock in the night. She habitually looked up at the window upstairs and frowned. The light from the window indicated that Philip Lu hasn't rested yet.

Usually, Philip Lu has a very stable schedule. No matter how tight the homework is, he will go to bed on time before twelve o'clock. It is undeniable that this kid really has a talent for reading. Basically, he will not study for more than two hours a day, and he will spend most of his time reading. Other books taught me a lot of miscellaneous things, such as home appliance repair, computer programming and repair, cooking skills, and bartending.

To paraphrase Philip Lu himself, he is like a super storage box. If you store too much stuff, you will need it sooner or later. When the time comes, all these items can be turned into money, allowing your sister-in-law to sleep with a lot of banknotes on her pillow.

Going upstairs, Celeste Qin opened the door gently, and her frown deepened because she found Xu Qing holding a computer on the floor, and there was a penguin wearing a red scarf jumping up and down on the screen, jumping so happily that .

Philip Lu lowered her head and typed on the keyboard, unaware that her sister-in-law Celeste Qin was slowly approaching behind her, and the chat on the screen came into focus.

Philip Lu's name is Gentle Breeze, and he is talking about love and values ​​​​with a guy who Seeing Through the World but Not Shaving My Head.

Seeing Through the World but Not Shaving My Head: "Brother, what do you think a man can do in his life?"

Gentle Breeze: "What men pursue is nothing more than career and love."

Seeing Through the World but Not Shaving My Head: "Haha, these two things are too low-level, even more common than being a monk."

Gentle Breeze: "Vulgar? Then what are the vulgar ways to talk about career and love?"

Seeing Through the World but Not Shaving My Head the world of mortals: “Career is about making money, and love is about making love. Aren’t these two things vulgar?”

Gentle Breeze: "You are so awesome."

Seeing Through the World but Not Shaving My Head: "(smirking expression), a good career means making a lot of money, and a perfect love is nothing more than having a perfect wife. This is what men are like, and they will never be able to escape these two vulgar things even if they work hard all their lives."

Gentle Breeze: "Second brother, you are so awesome."

puff

Celeste Qin behind him finally couldn't help but squirted. Philip Lu was so frightened that he turned his head violently, and there were suddenly a few black lines on his forehead.

"sister in law?". Philip Lu had the urge to dig into the ground. He rarely surfs the Internet and practices one-finger meditation while typing. His sister-in-law caught him because he was too absorbed in searching for the keys with his head down.

A touch of displeasure appeared on Celeste Qin thin face. He frowned and pointed at the computer on the table: "Where did this come from?"

Computers were undoubtedly a luxury item for her. brother-in-law in-law suddenly moved a computer, which made her feel a little uneasy.

"The man named Liu on the second floor moved in and asked me to repair it for him." Philip Lu rubbed his hands and replied. In fact, this was the first business that sister Zhu arranged for him. Computer repairs were a very simple problem. There was an oxide film on the memory stick and the computer couldn't be turned on. I unplugged the memory stick and rubbed it back and forth on the interface with an eraser a few times. Everything returned to normal. I pocketed thirty dollars easily and made a profit.

"Has it been fixed?" Celeste Qin Bing looked at the beating red scarf penguin in the lower right corner of the screen and asked a very silly question. If it is not fixed, can he talk freely about men's views on love and values?

"Well, I made thirty yuan." Philip Lu responded subconsciously. As soon as he said the words, he immediately began to regret it and wished he could slap himself for such a mean mouth.

"Yeah." The displeasure on Celeste Qin face became even stronger. Seeing that Philip Lu couldn't hide it, he simply told the story of collecting rent today, and also omitted some of the details.

Just when Philip Lu took out the ten yuan advance payment from his pocket and was about to hand it to Celeste Qin Bing, he didn't expect that there was a loud thunder in his ears, and then Celeste Qin eyes turned red and he started to cry.

"Who wants you to make money? Who wants you to make money?" Celeste Qin's eyes were filled with tears, and her voice suddenly raised an octave. All the grievances and sorrows in her belly burst out at this moment. Philip Lu was completely confused, holding ten yuan paper in his hand Bi stood there blankly.

"Sister-in-law, am I wrong? Please stop crying. Stop crying." The eloquent Philip Lu turned into a complete idiot at this time, clumsily comforting his sister-in-law. Unexpectedly, Celeste Qin Bing cried even harder.

"Who cares about you making money? Who wants you to make money?" The cry was so harsh in the quiet night. Philip Lu, who was overwhelmed, began to turn pale. He understood that his sister-in-law had been under too much pressure in the past two years. I shouldn't have to continue to bear the pressure for his brother-in-law in-law whom I am not close to. I shouldn't.

Philip Lu felt very guilty and annoyed. All the negative emotions poured into his mind at this moment, and his mind went blank. By some mistake, he clenched the banknote tightly and ran out.
