Chapter 12 His Broken Dream

Fang Suixue stared blankly at Ye Suichen, then dropped the pole: "No, no. I..."

Ye Suichen tilted his head: "Or, are you afraid of earthworms?" He suddenly raised the small jar containing earthworms in front of Fang Fanxue, and ugly reddish-brown annelids squirmed before his eyes, scaring Fang Fanxue Stand up immediately.

"Brother Chen!" Fang Suixue glared at him angrily, but Ye Suichen had a teasing side.

"Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore. If you think it's dirty, I'll help you hang the earthworms." After finishing speaking, Ye Suichen picked up Fang Suixue's pole and hung up the bait for him on his own.

Fang Suixue watched, and couldn't help pursing her lips into a small smile.

The two-week vacation passed in a blink of an eye, and Ye Suichen flew back to England to continue his studies.

During the period, he received a letter from Fang Suixue from China, which contained nothing too practical, but mainly about his reading experience.

Fang Suanxue wrote: "Rereading some books recently, I found that my previous thinking has been overturned by myself."

People like him in block letters are upright.

Ye Suichen held the letter paper to admire, and suddenly found that the Chinese characters were very beautiful, especially the characters next to the female characters.

The characters next to the female character are all good characters, such as mother, such as dislike snow.

The letter paper is a thin sheet, and through the sunlight, you can see the flowers and leaves embedded in the paper pulp. Ye Suichen curiously put it to his nose and smelled it. There was a faint fragrance of flowers and plants and the fragrance of pen ink.

It smells good, but the body fragrance of the unbelieving master smells good.

After scrutinizing it for a while, Ye Suichen put the letter away, and sent Fang Suixue a postcard of Big Ben, writing in italics: "Timeworkswonders."

While stuffing the postcard into the envelope, he thought: Maybe he can play ball with this kid again when he goes back from summer vacation.

Before the end of the semester, Ye Suichen received a call from his cousin Ye Suizhu, saying that Ye's family was in a business crisis and told him to return home immediately.

"I can't explain it to you for a while, anyway, come back and help my uncle and aunt, the sooner the better." Ye Suizhu's voice sounded like crying, which made Ye Suichen feel that if he asked one more question, Ye Suichen would Sui Zhu's psychological defense would immediately collapse.

Ye Suichen called his parents, but they couldn't get through, and no one answered the landline at home.

He asked for leave and caught the earliest flight overnight.When boarding the plane, he found that the seat next to him was a woman with a white flower pinned to her chest.

A "widow" whose husband died.Ye Suichen frowned, disliking this inexplicable bad omen.

The plane flew too slowly and wobbled. Ye Suichen felt dizzy during the whole process and rubbed his temples.

No one picked him up when he got off the plane.

Back home, Ye's living room was set up as a mourning hall, and the couplets and white flowers hurt Ye Suichen's eyes.Ye Suilu knelt on the ground and cried, while Ye Suizhu stood aside in a black dress to receive the people who came.

Ye Suichen stood there in a daze for a while, not knowing whether to step with his left foot or his right foot.

When he reacted, his body had already stumbled and rushed over, tearing at Ye Suizhu's clothes with bloodshot eyes: "Didn't you say it was just a crisis?"

Ye Suizhu's eye sockets were swollen like walnuts: "Xiaochen, I lied to you. In fact, Ye's family went bankrupt. When I called you, my second uncle and aunt had been declared invalid. I'm afraid you are too worried about accidents on the road , did not tell you the truth."

"It's only been two months!" Ye Suichen roared in disbelief. What he was angry with was Ye's fragility, but also his own powerlessness.

He thought he was coming back to help, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even see his parents for the last time.

"In fact, the Ye family has been going downhill since grandpa left. In the past few years, he has been in debt a lot, and his appearance is glamorous, but in fact he is nothing more than an empty shelf. A while ago, there was a problem with the freighter carrying the export goods, and all the tens of millions of goods were lost. , Ye is facing huge claims and liquidated damages." Ye Suizhu said.

"How much do you owe?" Ye Suichen heard his voice trembling.

"6000."

Ye Suichen's eyes darkened.

Ye Suizhu helped Ye Suichen arrange the funeral and went home.Ye Suichen knew that his uncle was obsessed with playing cards, and his family's savings were almost wiped out, and his aunt was angry because of this incident a few years ago, so it was impossible to count on their family for help.

Mr. Fu lost his beloved daughter, and the Ye family and his wife entered the intensive care unit on the night of the accident. They managed to transfer 2000 million to Ye Suizhu before they fell into a coma, but it was still not enough compared to the 6000 million owed.

After all, the Ye family is not the property of the Fu family. Grandpa has done his best in doing this, and he really doesn't want to disturb the Fu family anymore.

Ye Suichen sent his parents' remains to be cremated, and stood outside waiting alone.Mother Ye and Father Ye were put into a drawer, lying side by side as if in a dream.

After a roar, green smoke rose from the chimney, and Ye Suichen's tears almost welled up in his eyes.He stood in the open space and wailed loudly, his throat was dry and his legs were weak from crying.

For the first time in his life, he knew his incompetence. He was incapable of saving the family business and supporting him and his sister, just like no matter how reluctant he was, he couldn't catch the wisp of smoke that rose into the sky.After taking the metal canister containing the ashes from the staff, Ye Suichen felt that something had been crushed together.

He went home with two jars in his arms and stayed overnight.

His decent, fastidious parents didn't even have a safe cemetery.

He remembered that Rachel said before that if she died, someone would take a cruise ship and scatter her ashes into the sea so that she could dissipate freely with the wind.And his loving and benevolent father said that he wanted to be buried under the tree and continue his life as the sapling grew.

I have no money to rent a cruise ship, but fortunately there are wind and trees in the yard.

After dealing with the ashes of his parents, Ye Suichen was confused for a while, and had no time to think about it, because there were still too many things waiting for him to do.

He borrowed money from door to door, promising to double the repayment, but he kept getting rejected.

In less than a month, all the relatives and friends of the Ye family separated from them.

Only Yuezhou gave him all the pocket money and said to him: "Here is 10,000+, you take it. My parents won't let me come to you, I sneaked here."

Although it was just a drop in the bucket, Ye Suichen had a sore nose and couldn't say anything.

In the past 18 years, Ye Suichen has always been supported by others. He has never worried about the trivialities of life, and he has never bowed his head to others.

He sold his cherished violin and exchanged all his mother's books for money.

He was standing at the door talking with the buyer, and Ye Suilu ran over and pulled his clothes, telling him not to sell them.

Ye Suichen pulled her fingers away from her body, pointed to the title page of the book and sold it to the book buyer with the most flattering smile in his life: "Look, this is the seal of the Royal Library of Prussia, and it's genuine."

The buyer called more than a dozen people to the Ye family's study to move the books. It took several days and many trips by car to take all these precious books away.

Ye Suichen stood at the door and watched the car go away, feeling numb in his heart.He even thought resentfully, if his parents read less books and learned more practical things, wouldn't the Ye family not collapse.

Thinking about it this way, the book seems to be an enemy.Pulling away all the enemies, out of sight and out of mind, how relieved.

"Brother, you are a bad person! Mom will be angry!" Ye Suilu bit her lip, tears rolled in her eyes, and reached out to hit Ye Suichen.

Ye Suichen turned around and let her beat him, Ye Suilu was getting harder and harder, but Ye Suichen stood still as if he didn't know the pain, it seemed that the more pain in his body, the less pain in his heart.

When Ye Suilu was tired, he grabbed her hand and said: "Lulu, listen carefully, from now on, we don't need these torn papers. We need money, and money can save lives."

Ye Suilu didn't understand: "Then how can I get rich?"

Ye Suichen twitched the corners of his mouth: "This is not something you need to worry about. You just need to be with brother, trust him, and leave everything to him."

"Okay, I'm obedient and trust my brother." Ye Suilu nodded.

A few days later, Ye Suichen's father's former business partner came to collect the debt and chased him all the way to Ye's house.He called a bunch of big and rough people to surround the living room of his house, brought a pile of IOUs and put them on the table, and sat on the chair his father used to sit on to put pressure on his siblings.

Ye Suilu was out of breath from crying, and went straight into his arms: "Brother, I'm afraid."

"Don't be afraid, brother is here."

Ye Suichen is also afraid, but he is the only man in the family now, if he is afraid, no one can protect his sister and Ye Shi.

Ye Suichen squeezed his palms and looked directly at the man, forcing his voice to sound calm: "What do you want?"

"I don't want anything, I just want you to pay back the money. It's only natural to pay the debt. I don't want to take you to court. I'll have a fight with your father and brother anyway. It's not good to have a fight."

"But there is nothing left in my house. Look, it's all sold out." Ye Suichen scanned the room, his tone flat to despair.

"Then give me the house."

Ye Suichen stared at him, his teeth were about to bleed his lips: "This is my home!"

"If you don't give it to me, the court will take it back. Why do you make it cheaper for others?"

It took Ye Suichen a long time to let out a deep breath from his throat.

"In three days, move out, hear?"

Even if he disagreed, Ye Suichen could only follow through.

Early the next morning, Ye Suichen packed his things and stood in the living room in a daze.In fact, there is nothing to clean up, just a few old clothes and plush toys that Lulu is reluctant to sell.

He closed his eyes in the empty room, hoping it was just a dream.

After waking up from the dream, he can still see his parents dancing ballroom dancing in the room, his sister lying on the ground doing handicrafts, and the whole family waiting for him to come home happily.

"Lulu, have you packed your things? We're leaving."

"immediately."

There was a knock on the door, and Ye Suichen walked over to open it.Under the white magnolias in the courtyard, a young man stood at the door and handed him a letter.

Ye Suichen didn't answer.

"Fang Suixue. What's the matter?" He said lazily, with no emotion in his eyes.

He remembered that on the day of the funeral of the Ye family's parents, the Fang family came and sent a few elegiac couplets, without saying a word the whole time.

"Brother Chen, my condolences. This is for you." Fang Suixue's voice was unsteady.

Ye Suichen opened the letter, the words were still so beautiful.Parallel prose with thousands of characters, the literary talent is outstanding and eloquent.

Fang Fanxue compared him with the most beautiful metaphor, expressed her love to him, and told him: no matter what happens, she will firmly accompany him and help him.

help him?What can Fang Suanxue do to help?Just relying on the Fang family's floor tiles that are whiter than their faces?

Can the Fang family make up for the Ye family's shortfall for him, or can they redeem the Ye family's house?

No one can help him, only himself can help him.

Except for things that are helpful to Ye Shi, he has no energy or interest in everything else.

In front of Fang Suixue, Ye Suichen tore the love letter into pieces, stepped on his feet with a sneer, and said lightly, "Go back, bro, I'm not underage."
