Before Chen Weiguo could say anything, Qin Huairu spoke again.
"Xiao Chen, since I took care of you back then, let's just let this matter go…"
She spoke in a resentful tone and looked at Chen Weiguo as if he was an ingrate.
It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned this, but Chen Weiguo was even angrier now!
In this era, everyone's standard of living was not high, but the benefits of a planned economy were egalitarian, social unity, and more care for the weak.
For children like Chen Weiguo who did not have parents, the country had a policy that favored them. They would give out subsidies and money tickets every month.
Whether Chen Weiguo needed it or not was one thing. Whether these subsidies were given to Chen Weiguo was another matter.
Logically speaking, Chen Weiguo's subsidy should have been reported to the neighborhood committee that the Siheyuan belonged to, and then distributed by the staff of the neighborhood committee.
In this era, there was no internet or computer, and the household registration system was not perfect. The staff of the neighborhood committee did not know the specific situation of Chen Weiguo.
Of course, Chen Weiguo did not tell the people in the courtyard house that he had an incredible uncle.
Therefore, the people in the Siheyuan thought that he had at most recognized a poor relative in the countryside. The people in the neighborhood committee also thought so.
They felt that Chen Weiguo was young and could not take care of the supplies he distributed. His relatives must be in the countryside and it was difficult to enter the city. It was also not convenient for them to take care of Chen Weiguo.
He found someone who could handle things in the courtyard house and was responsible for receiving the food subsidies for Chen Weiguo on time and sending them to his place of residence.
At that time, the person who took on the job was the most reliable and most in charge of the department, Yi Zhonghai.
A few years later, not long after Qin Huairu married into the old Jia family, First Master hurriedly passed the job to Qin Huairu.
In the beginning, Qin Huairu had handled this matter well.
After all, it was the First Uncle who instructed her, so she showed the gentleness and thoughtfulness that a woman should have.
Not only did she send Chen Weiguo the allowance he deserved, but she also often invited him to her house for dinner.
It was just that Chen Weiguo had never been there.
Later on, things started to go wrong.
Chen Weiguo realized that as he got older, the amount of subsidies he received became smaller and smaller.
Logically speaking, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child was growing up. His appetite was as big as a cow, and he was studying. The allowance should be relatively more. How could it be decreasing?
However, the amount of food he received was less than two-thirds of the original amount. He did not say anything.
After another half a year, he only had half of it.
Because of this, Chen Weiguo had gone to confront Qin Huairu and asked her about the situation with the food subsidies.
At that time, there was no famine. The grain production was abundant, and the amount of grain given was sufficient. The quality was also good. Moreover, the staff of the neighborhood committee were like injected with chicken blood. They wanted to contribute to society every day, so there was almost no deduction.
Chen Weiguo knew this very well, but he could not believe that the person behind all this was Qin Huairu.
This was the person he trusted and relied on.
Qin Huairu was actually not much older than him. She had a beautiful face, just like the actors in the movie magazines.
Chen Weiguo had always felt that if he had an older sister, she might be just like her.
However, this woman, who he thought was a good person, took away more than half of the most important food for him at this time.
Food in this era wasn't food, it was life!
Although he was not lacking in food, Qin Huairu did not know that!
Since Qin Huairu was able to deduct his rations with a clear conscience, it meant that she had never cared about his life at all.
Before Chen Weiguo could say anything, Qin Huairu burst into tears. She pointed at Chen Weiguo and scolded him for being heartless. All her good intentions for so many years had gone to waste.
This dog was Chen Weiguo.
At that time, Chen Weiguo had yet to wear it, and he was still facing Qin Huiru with his introverted and taciturn original self.
The image of an elder sister in the original body's heart was shattered into pieces. Before she could feel uncomfortable, Qin Huairu burst into tears again. She cried until her heart was in a mess. She was unwilling to be entangled with Qin Huairu for too long, so she could only bear this loss and run away while covering her ears.
After that, the original body was still thinking about the little sister in his heart, so he was soft-hearted and didn't tell anyone about it. He didn't even tell his uncle.
What he did not expect was that his soft-heartedness would make Qin Huairu even more greedy.
Chen Weiguo was still underage, and Qin Huairu had cut off his allowance in advance.
If he was really an orphan, he would have starved to death on the eve of adulthood!
After Chen Weiguo transmigrated, he spent a lot of time adapting to the environment. He did not have time to organize some of the memories of his original body.
However, he clearly knew that in the memories of his original body, other than the memories related to his uncle's family, which were warm, the other times were filled with contempt and indifference.
Everyone in the Siheyuan seemed to be friendly and cared for him. In fact, they were secretly plotting against him and even looked down on him, an orphan.
Yi Zhonghai wanted to adopt him at first, so he was willing to treat him well.
Later, he found out that Chen Weiguo had relatives, so he could not fight for custody.
At that moment, First Uncle wanted to throw him far away immediately.
When the others in the courtyard saw that First Uncle's attitude towards him had changed, they also knew that the Host, an orphan without parents, was easy to bully. They had given him a lot of face!
The people in the courtyard had always looked down on him and looked down on him. It was only when he entered the grain station that everything changed.
At that time, he had just graduated, and his uncle had not arranged a job for him yet. Every day, he spent his time playing, and he was almost on the streets.
Chen Weiguo still remembered that everyone in the courtyard house was there that morning.
He carried a stool and basked in the sun in the courtyard.
Anyone who passed by the courtyard house would turn their heads and laugh at him. They despised him for squatting at home and calling him a parasite of the society.
Amid the mockery, Chen Weiguo received two letters.
One letter, rejected by the university.
Everyone's mocking laughter became even more intense.
The other was a notice of employment at the grain station.
The people in the courtyard could not believe it. They read it one after another. Amidst the uproar, their attitude towards Chen Weiguo changed drastically.
