Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

"This is your third aunt's house? This is really... well, isn't it?"

Park the bicycle in a place that could barely be called a house.

Guo Miao was dumbfounded.

Chen Dong looked up and couldn't help but sigh.

This house in front of me doesn't look like a home for anyone to live in.

It wasn't even a broken shipping container; it was just a pile of dirt about half a person's height.

Then they stuck random pieces of wooden planks of varying lengths into the wall, and finally covered it with some sticks and pig feed.

There isn't even a single piece of land!

Without needing to analyze, Chen Dong already understood one thing.

That means my third uncle, Liu Dazhu, must have become addicted to drugs.

We've sold everything we could in the house!

"Mom, I'm hungry."

"Honey, there's still some cornbread left. You can eat it."

A weak, childish voice rang out from inside the mud, wood, and thatched hut.

And the voice of Chen Dong's third aunt, Chen Guilan.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look."

Chen Dong sighed again and strode forward.

Guo Miao scratched his head and followed.

Chen Dong raised his hand and gently knocked on the door.

"Quick, eat it! Your father is back!"

Upon hearing the knock on the door, Chen Guilan seemed quite flustered and hurriedly urged them on.

Then came the smacking sound of my cousin eating a few bites of cornbread.

"...Third Aunt, it's me, Dongzi."

"I've come to see you."

Chen Dong was silent for two seconds before sighing and speaking.

The wooden door suddenly opened.

Chen Guilan's expression was one of utter surprise.

how many years?

Since her second daughter turned three, no relatives have visited her home for five consecutive years.

"Dong, Dongzi, you, what brings you here?"

"Come, come in and sit down."

Chen Guilan was very happy, even flattered.

They greeted us warmly.

After Chen Dong went inside, Chen Guilan awkwardly tidied up the bedding.

Chen Guilan blushed and said in a low voice, "Well, the place is small and there are no chairs, so just sit on the edge of the bed."

"it is good."

Chen Dong glanced around and found that besides a few burlap sacks, a bed, a table, and two kettles,

This dilapidated house doesn't even have a stove.

"Third Aunt, this is what my mother asked me to bring to you."

Chen Dong did not sit down directly, but instead held up the apple he was carrying.

It was placed on the only place on the table where I could put things.

"Oh dear, you're here, but why did you bring gifts?"

"Dongzi, this is your first time here, you should...you should..."

Chen Guilan was smiling happily at first, but her smile gradually stiffened.

According to rural custom, this is the first time a relative visits.

They usually prepare a slightly more substantial meal, with some meat included.

But now, let alone meat, even the place to sit is for my nephew to sit on the edge of the bed.

There wasn't even a single grain of rice in the house.

The scene fell silent.

"Mom, what's that? Is it something to eat?"

"Those are apples! Apples that my brother brought!"

Chen Guilan has two daughters, one is 8 years old and the other is 12 years old.

He stared intently at the apple on the table.

Seeing this, Chen Dong smiled, picked up two apples, and placed them in the hands of his two adorable cousins.

"This is an apple, you can eat it. If you're not full, it can fill your stomach."

"Thank you, big brother!"

The two younger cousins ​​smiled happily, squinting as they ate their apples.

Chen Dong didn't bother to correct the way they were being called; his two cousins ​​weren't even getting enough to eat, so there was no point in worrying about it.

After patting his two younger cousins ​​on the head, Chen Dong turned to look at Chen Guilan.

"Third Aunt, didn't you just borrow a hundred yuan from my dad a couple of days ago?"

"Why is there still no food in this house?"

"When I first came in, you were rushing to finish even a small piece of cornbread."

"What exactly happened here?"

Chen Dong started the conversation, wanting to hear about his third aunt's current life situation.

"Well, life is a little difficult now."

"I borrowed it a couple of days ago, bought some things, and then the neighbors saw it."

"Then they came to our door demanding repayment, and that was it, that was it."

Chen Guilan avoided eye contact with Chen Dong.

"Auntie, how can you repay a debt like this? Isn't this going to kill someone?"

"We're already starving, what will we eat if we pay it all back?"

Guo Miao scratched his head, completely bewildered.

"Well, kids shouldn't worry about such things."

Unable to explain, Chen Guilan had no choice but to change the subject.

"By the way, Dongzi, what did your mom send you here for?"

"Is this some kind of pressure to make me pay back the money?"

Chen Guilan seemed rather uneasy and hesitant.

"No, my mom just asked me to come over and bring some fruit."

Chen Dong shook his head.

Just as Chen Guilan was about to say something about when...

The wooden planks at the door rattled again.

It was very different from the knocking sound; it seemed as if something had directly hit it.

"Open the door! Open the door! I'm back!"

"You jinx, open the door for me right now!"

Chen Guilan's expression changed repeatedly.

"Dongzi, look at you. You've already seen it all. Your aunt's family is poor, so they don't have much to offer you."

"I won't keep you for dinner. Why don't you go home first?"

Chen Guilan looked at Chen Dong with great difficulty, her eyes full of pleading.

After a two-second silence, Chen Dong stood up, nodded, and replied, "Okay."

But Chen Dong slowed down his movements slightly.

Before Chen Guilan could even open the door, the wooden door was kicked open.

"You jinx! I've been calling you for ages, but you still won't open the door."

"Do you want me to die out there?"

Liu Dazhu staggered in, drunk.

He was also holding a bottle of loose liquor in his right hand, and he poured the liquor into his mouth again.

As the last drop entered his mouth, Liu Dazhu, still not satisfied, turned his gaze to Chen Guilan.

To be precise, it was in the pocket behind Chen Guilan's buttocks.

"I, I know you. You have a few dollars left. Quick, take it out."

"Here, buy me some wine. I haven't had enough!"

Liu Dazhu shook his head and bossed Chen Guilan around without any politeness.

But Chen Guilan clutched her pocket tightly and shouted angrily, "That's the money for the whole family's meals these past few days!"

"If you use this to buy alcohol, what will we eat? We'll starve!"

"The child is still so young..."

"Don't mention the children to me!"

"You do not deserve!"

Upon hearing this, the drunken Liu Dazhu became like an enraged lion, suddenly turning fierce.

"How dare you talk about the child! You jinx! Two pregnancies in a row, I'll make you give birth even if it means paying fines and facing pressure!"

"You gave me two such money-losing brats!"

"If you have no food to eat, then go sell it!"

"All I care about is having alcohol!"

Liu Dazhu roared and pounced on her, trying to snatch the few dollars that Chen Guilan had left in her pocket.

My two younger cousins, who were just happily munching on apples, were now terrified and hiding in a corner, tears streaming down their faces.
