Reborn since 2005

Chapter 1 Rescue Uncle

Chapter 1 Saving my uncle

June 28, 2005, sunny.

After finishing lunch early, Yan Xin took the fishing rod he made and went to the small river outside the village to fish.

In the summer afternoon, the temperature was very high. Even though he was sitting under the shade of a big poplar tree by the river, he still felt very hot and depressed, thinking:

"Why isn't that guy here yet?"

"The weather is so hot, doesn't he know how hard it is to wait for someone?"

It looks like he is fishing, but in fact he is waiting for someone.

Waiting for a short-lived person.

Yan Xin is a reborn person who returned to 2005 from the future more than ten years later, to the summer when he was eighteen years old.

If the world still runs according to the trajectory in his memory, then on this afternoon, a young man who failed the college entrance examination will commit suicide by jumping into the river here.

He wanted to prevent this from happening.

The boy's name was Feng Chen, and he was his classmate from elementary school to junior high school. However, the relationship between the two was very ordinary. They could only be considered acquaintances, not good friends.

But this Feng Chen has a sister named Feng Xi.

In Yan Xin's memory of the future, it was a woman who had been entangled with him for several years. She was his wife, and later became his ex-wife.

That was an unpleasant memory.

It's not that Feng Xi is not good, Yan Xin thinks that this woman has a hard time. After getting married, she took care of his bedridden father for several years and provided for his father to die in old age. She suffered a lot and suffered a lot of grievances.

He has always felt guilty about this woman.

It was precisely because of this feeling of guilt that he was waiting here on this hot day, waiting for the short-lived ghost he should have called uncle-brother in his previous life to appear.

After confirming that he was reborn, he returned to 2005. At that time, Yan Xin was quite happy. He felt that with the memories of the next ten years, he would live better than in his previous life.

There is also a chance to make up for some things that make you regretful when you think about it.

I originally thought about going out to work right away, but suddenly I remembered that Feng Xi's brother Feng Chen committed suicide by jumping into the river on June 28th, so I changed my mind and rescued this short-lived ghost first.

It’s not even that short of a few days.

His marriage to Feng Xi was not happy in his last life. In this life, he did not want to have anything to do with Feng Xi, especially the father-in-law and mother-in-law.

But he still hopes that the woman who has been his wife for several years can live a happier life.

By rescuing Feng Chen, Feng Xi no longer needs to shoulder the burden of providing for his parents in this life alone.

Even if she and her brother shoulder half of the burden, her pressure will be much less and her life will not be so hard.

He heard from Feng Xi that Feng Chen committed suicide by jumping into the river on this day.

The specific time is not known.

All I know is that they had dinner together at noon and seemed to be in a very depressed mood. I went to his room in the afternoon and saw no one but a suicide note.

Then many people were called to look for him, but they only found a pair of his slippers under a big poplar tree by the river, and knew that he jumped into the river here.

In the evening, they picked him up, but by that time there was no way to save him.

Yan Xin is now sitting under the big poplar tree. There are no slippers under the tree, which means that Feng Chen has not jumped into the river yet.

In order to avoid being late, Yan Xin finished lunch at 11:30 today, and it was not yet 12 o'clock when he came here.

Not knowing the specific time for Feng Chen to jump into the river, he could only wait like this.

It was really unpleasant to stay here on a hot day. Even if he knew that he was saving a life and the happiness of a family, he still felt unhappy.

I don't know how long I waited before I heard footsteps coming this way.

I poked my head out from behind the tree and saw a boy of eighteen or nineteen years old walking toward the big poplar tree like a zombie.

Their eyes met, the two of them were stunned.

Yan Xin looked at this face, compared it with Feng Chen in his memory, and finally matched it.

This is Feng Chen, his classmate from elementary school to junior high school.

Yan Xin did not do well in the high school entrance examination and went to No. 2 Middle School, while Feng Chen was admitted to No. 1 Middle School, so the two did not go to high school together.

Feng Chen recognized Yan Xin and asked, "Yan Xin, what are you doing here?"

He was also quite depressed.

He made up his mind to commit suicide by jumping into the river, but there was a person here by the river.

He remembered that this guy named Yan Xin knew how to swim.

Moreover, there are people on the other side of the river embankment. It is not a problem to call a dozen people for help with a roar.

If you jump at this time, you will most likely die.

It wouldn't be like committing suicide, but performing suicide.

Yan Xin raised the thin bamboo pole in his hand and said, "I'm fishing here, what about you? What are you doing here?"

Feng Chen said depressedly: "If you don't do anything, I'm in a bad mood. Come here and sit for a while."

"What's wrong?" Yan Xin asked knowingly.

Feng Chen squatted down, held his head in his hands, and sighed:

“If you don’t do well in the college entrance examination, you won’t be able to go to university.”

Yan Xin disagreed: "If you can't go to college, you can't go to college. How big a deal is this? I didn't do well in the exam either."

Feng Chen glanced at him and thought to himself: "Can I compete with you? You are a student of No. 2 Middle School, and I am a student of No. 1 Middle School."

There is a huge difference in teaching quality between No. 2 Middle School and No. 1 Middle School. Yan Xin, a mere scumbag from No. 2 Middle School, dared to compare with his outstanding students from No. 1 Middle School, which made him feel a little ashamed.

But the fact is that both of them did not do well in the exam.

This made him feel even more ashamed.

Still couldn't help but defend, saying: "Originally, I shouldn't have gotten this score. I could get over 500 points in several simulations. But I was under too much pressure during the college entrance examination. I had insomnia for several nights in a row, so I ended up passing

My head was buzzing in the examination room..."

As he spoke, he started crying:

"Originally I could have been admitted to university...that's not my real strength..."

This was what made him feel the most frustrated.

If you simply didn't do well in the exam, it wouldn't be so hard to think about.

When Yan Xin heard what he said, he felt some sympathy and said, "Then just study for another year and take the exam next year to try to get into a good university."

Feng Chen was even more sad: "My dad said... My dad said that I didn't do well in the exam because I was stupid. I would still fail the exam after another year of study. He wouldn't let me repeat the exam... and he looked down on me..."

Yan Xin can understand this.

They are all from rural areas, and the conditions of the Feng family are not very good. They also have to support brother and sister Feng Chen and Feng Xi to study. Their family already owes some debts.

Feng Chen was able to go to college, with a bright future as collateral, and money could be borrowed for his studies.

Now that I have failed in the exam, it will not be easy to borrow money if I have to repeat my studies again.

Even if his father supports him to repeat his studies, he won't be able to make that much money.

Calling him stupid or repeating the study is useless. He is just looking for a reason not to repeat the study to cover up his incompetence.

But Yan Xin can understand it, because he has lived for more than ten years, knows the hardship of life, and knows that a penny can really kill a hero.

Feng Chen was just a child who grew up under the protection of his parents and knew nothing about the hardships of life. He was already in a bad mood after failing the college entrance examination, and was so denied by his father that he suddenly couldn't think about it anymore.

Looking at the young man squatting on the ground and crying, Yan Xin sighed in his heart: "This is so well protected..."

Said: "Then what are you going to do in the future?"

"I don't know what to do... I feel like there's no point in living anymore..." Feng Chen answered dully with his head buried.

Yan Xin smiled: "You don't want to commit suicide, do you?"

Feng Chen did not answer.

Yan Xin smiled again and said, "You came to the river, didn't you want to jump into the river?"

Feng Chen heard the sarcasm and looked up at him:

"Do you look down on me?"

"Well, a little bit." Yan Xin answered honestly.

"Why do you look down on me?" Feng Chen was unhappy.

"Just because you want to commit suicide," Yan Xin said, "You're such an old man, and you're looking for life after a little setback. You failed in the exam, and you're going to commit suicide if you don't let you repeat the exam. It's weird that people can think of this."

Feng Chen said: "Even if I want to commit suicide, it is my own business..."

"Bullshit about your own business! You are sending your whole family to hell!"

Perhaps thinking of what happened in his previous life, Yan Xin got a little excited, pointed at him and said:

"You only know that you have to repeat your studies and go to college. Have you ever thought about where the money for your studies will come from? How many people will your parents have to humiliate to satisfy your wish to repeat your studies? And, do you think that you can definitely borrow money by humiliating them?

"You only know that you want to realize your dream, but you don't think about the bearing capacity of your family. Even if you sacrifice your entire family, you may not be able to realize it. You are a typical selfish and inhumane person!

"Your parents raised you so much and provided for you to study, and they owe a lot of debt. You are quite free and easy. Just slap your butt and jump into the river, and all your worries will disappear. Have you ever thought about your parents?

?What would they think?"

"I worked so hard to raise you so big just to make you commit suicide?"

"How are they going to bear the pain of losing their son?"

"When the time comes, your mother will accuse your father of forcing you to death for not agreeing to your repeat studies, and your father will live with regrets for the rest of his life."

"If you want to say they deserve it, fine, I won't argue with you."

"But where is your sister?"

"Your parents only have one son and one daughter. Without you as a son, the responsibility of providing for the elderly will be placed on your sister. You are free and easy now, but your sister will be harmed by you for the rest of her life!"

"If she gets married in the future, it will affect another family."

"A man who doesn't take any responsibility when things happen to him, just wants to evade responsibility and throw the burden on others, and still want others to think highly of you?"

"Pooh!"

The more Yan Xin talked, the more excited he became, which made Feng Chen confused.

I didn't expect to be despised by a scumbag.

Moreover, this scumbag still despises him by telling him the great principles of life.

What made him feel even more humiliated was that he suddenly felt that what this scumbag said was so right.

It would be a bit irresponsible to just die like this.

He looked at Yan Xin blankly, trying to find a point to refute, but found that he couldn't.

After a while, he said: "Okay, I admit that what you said makes sense, but that is also my family's business. Why are you so excited?"

This really confused Yan Xin - you can't say that I am another family that was affected by your sister, right?

He was stunned for a moment and said: "Is this the point? Why am I excited? Is this the point that you need to care about? Isn't the point that you shouldn't commit suicide? You can't grasp the key points. No wonder you did so poorly in the exam!"

"What you said makes sense, but, but I have already written a suicide note..."

Feng Chen covered his face with his hands,

"You said that the atmosphere has been heightened to this point. If I don't jump, will I be laughed at? Will people say that I faked suicide to force my dad to let me repeat my studies?"

"Forehead……"

Yan Xin, who had lived for more than thirty years in his previous life, didn't think this was a big deal, but he also knew that it was normal for a young man to worry about this.

So he said: "Then you go back early and tear up the so-called suicide note before they find it. Then everything will be fine, right?"

"oh."

Feng Chen nodded, stood up and prepared to go home.

Suddenly, I heard his mother’s crying voice from the other side of the embankment:

"Chenchen!"

"Chenchen, where are you?"

"Don't be confused!"

Feng Chen looked at Yan Xin and became anxious:

"It's too late, they have already seen the suicide note I left..."

Yan Xin had some surprises - he came here so quickly, why was this uncle in his previous life still dead?

Looking at the anxious Feng Chen, he tentatively said:

"How about you jump down?"
