My son lacked 9,000 tuition fees, and I couldn't borrow 4 friends, so I called my second aunt, who had not been in touch for many years
Speaking of this topic, I was deeply touched. I am an ordinary salaried man, and although I have not lived too richly, I have always attached great importance to my son's education. I firmly believe that education is the greatest asset for children, so I will do my best to ensure that my son can get a good education.
However, a recent dilemma left me confused. My son was about to go to college and lacked $9,000 in tuition, and I couldn't raise that money. So I started borrowing money from a few good friends, but they were all rejected. It made me feel very frustrated and helpless, and I really didn't know how to solve this problem.
At this time, I suddenly remembered my second aunt, who had not been in contact for many years. She is my mother's sister, and there is some distance between us, and there is still very little contact. However, for the sake of my son's education, I decided to give her a call, maybe she would be willing to help me.
I dialed my second aunt's phone, a little nervous, full of anticipation and hesitation. A slightly jerky voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, who are you?" "I was stunned for a moment, then told her I was her nephew's father and hadn't seen her in a long time. The second aunt was silent for a moment, and I nervously spoke out about my predicament.
After listening to me, the second aunt did not answer immediately, but was silent for a long time. I was anxious, wondering if she would help me. Finally, she spoke: "I know that you lack money, but I also have my difficulties and can't help you." ”
I was immediately disappointed, and my heart was filled with helplessness and frustration. Just as I was about to say goodbye, she suddenly said, "But I can find you a way to solve the problem." ”
I asked suspiciously, "What way?" The second aunt said thoughtfully: "I have a job, although it is not good, but I can guarantee a stable income." If you want, you can borrow your son's tuition as a loan, and I deduct a portion of my salary every month until it is paid off. ”
I couldn't believe that my second aunt, who had not been in touch for so many years, was so kind. I was moved to tears and said thank you. The second aunt said comfortingly: "Relatives should help each other, especially when the relationship is not good, we should prove that we are a family with actions." ”
After that, my second aunt helped my son pay for his tuition, and I didn't let her pay for nothing. In addition to repaying the loan on time every month, I often called my second aunt to no longer distance her, but to confide in her about my troubles in life and work. Gradually, our relationship became intimate.
Through this incident, I deeply understood the importance of mutual aid between relatives. Sometimes, even if there is some gap between us, we should let go of our preconceptions and understand and help each other. Relatives are a family, no matter how difficult it is, as long as we work together, we will be able to overcome all problems.
