Chapter 536 Helplessness and Despair
Banggeng said disapprovingly: "Just pay, who told them to bully Xiaodang." Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng's unrepentant look, and couldn't help but raise her hand to slap Banggeng, crying and saying: "Why are you so ignorant? Is beating people the way to solve problems? You slapped all the money in the family, how can we live in the future?" Banggeng was slapped and was a little annoyed. He turned and ran, shouting: "Anyway, I'm not wrong, I just want to help Xiaodang vent his anger!" Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng's leaving back, collapsed on the ground, and burst into tears. Over the years, she has been raising several children alone, and life has been difficult. Now Banggeng has caused such a disaster, she feels extremely helpless and desperate. The neighbors in the courtyard heard the noise and gathered around. Sha Zhu was the first to arrive. He helped Qin Huairu up and comforted her, "Qin Huairu, don't be too sad. Banggeng is just a little impulsive, and he also feels sorry for Xiaodang. Let's think of a solution for the money." Other neighbors also echoed and comforted Qin Huairu one by one. Yi Zhonghai said, "Qin Huairu, Banggeng should be educated well, but his starting point is also good. For this money, we in the courtyard can help a little bit." With the comfort and help of the neighbors, Qin Huairu's mood gradually stabilized. Everyone pooled some money to help Qin Huairu out of the urgent need. However, Banggeng still did not realize his mistake. He felt that he was doing it for the good of his sister and should not be beaten and scolded by his mother. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He did not go home all day and wandered around outside. At night, Banggeng was so hungry that he wanted to go home. He sneaked into the yard and was about to go back to the house, but he heard the conversation between Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang from the house. "Alas, how can we live like this? Banggeng has owed a lot of debts because of this trouble." Qin Huairu's voice was full of fatigue and helplessness. "This Banggeng is too ignorant. Why doesn't he think about the difficulties at home?" Jia Zhang also sighed. Banggeng listened to the conversation between his mother and grandmother, and his heart suddenly felt a sharp pain. He realized that his impulsive behavior had brought so much trouble to his family. He walked into the house silently, came to Qin Huairu, lowered his head and said, "Mom, I was wrong. I shouldn't be so impulsive and cause trouble for my family." Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng, and a trace of relief flashed in her eyes. She touched Banggeng's head and said, "Son, it's good that you can recognize your mistakes. Although our family is poor, we can't cause trouble again. In the future, you must be calm when you encounter things, understand?" Banggeng nodded and said, "Mom, I know. I will be sensible in the future." Since then, Banggeng has really changed. He no longer acts impulsively like before, and he will think first when encountering problems. At school, he will also take the initiative to help Xiaodang and protect her from being bullied by classmates. After this incident, Qin Huairu also paid more attention to the education of Banggeng. She knew that children would inevitably make mistakes in the process of growing up, but as long as they could be guided in time, they would always be on the right track. Days passed, and the courtyard returned to its former tranquility. The change of Banggeng made Qin Huairu feel extremely relieved. She believed that as long as the family worked together, no matter how big the difficulties were, they could be overcome. And this storm also became a turning point in Banggeng's growth path, allowing him to truly understand the meaning of responsibility and responsibility. As time went by, Banggeng's performance in school was getting better and better. Not only did his academic performance improve, but he also won the respect and love of his classmates because of his willingness to help others. Xiaodang was no longer ridiculed by his classmates because of his brother's protection, and there were more and more smiles on his face. In the courtyard, Banggeng also began to take the initiative to help the neighbors do things within his ability. He would help the deaf old lady fetch water and help the old man repair the tables and chairs in the yard. Seeing the changes in Banggeng, the neighbors all praised him for being sensible. Shazhu was also very happy to see the changes in Banggeng. He often teaches Banggeng some life skills and principles of life, and Banggeng always listens humbly. However, life is always full of variables. Just when Qin Huairu's family's life was gradually getting on track, the Siheyuan ushered in a new challenge. News came from the street that the Siheyuan would be replanned and renovated. This news made the residents of the Siheyuan panic, and no one knew what the future would be like. Banggeng was a little worried when he heard the news. He was worried that after the Siheyuan was renovated, the family would lose this warm home. So he took the initiative to find Qin Huairu and said, "Mom, I heard that the Siheyuan is going to be renovated, what should we do?" Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng and said, "Son, don't worry. This is the arrangement from above, and we can only cooperate. No matter what, as long as our family is together, anywhere is home." Banggeng nodded and said, "Mom, I know. I will work hard to let you live a good life in the future." Qin Huairu smiled with relief. She knew that after so many things, Banggeng really grew up. In the following days, Banggeng actively participated in the discussion of the Siheyuan renovation. Together with his neighbors, he worked hard to make the courtyard better. Although there were some difficulties and disagreements in the process, everyone worked together to overcome them. Finally, in the expectation of everyone, the renovation project of the courtyard began. As the construction progressed, the courtyard gradually regained new vitality. The new courtyard has a cleaner environment and more complete facilities. Qin Huairu's family and neighbors all moved into the brand new house. Looking at the brand new home, everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles. Banggeng stood in the yard, watching all this, with a lot of emotion in his heart. He remembered his ignorance and the troubles he brought to his family, and also remembered his growth and changes after these things. He knew that the road ahead was still long, and he would encounter various difficulties and challenges in life. But he was confident that as long as he united with his family and neighbors, there would be no obstacles that he could not overcome. And this courtyard full of stories will continue to witness their growth and happiness.
The deaf old lady had always been an elder in the courtyard and was highly respected by everyone. However, she had developed a sleepwalking problem since someone had no idea when. At first, she would just stroll around the courtyard occasionally, and although everyone thought it was strange, they didn't take it too seriously.
But as time went by, the situation became more serious. She often ran out without clothes late at night, which made people in the yard feel helpless and embarrassed.
