"Is the matter done?" Wu Lingyu saw Zhang Yang smiling in the box and asked happily.
Unknowingly, Zhang Yang's joy, anger, sorrow, and joy have already affected Wu Lingyu's mood. After coming out of that community just now, Zhang Yang's expression has been very serious, which made Wu Lingyu very nervous. Now that Zhang Yang is smiling, her mood has also followed.
Getting better.
Zhang Yang nodded and said: "It's done. Come and try the specialties here. This Sichuan restaurant is very famous. I made a reservation for lunch."
Wu Lingyu hummed, and after her mood improved, her food tasted even more delicious.
The two of them were eating happily when Wu Lingyu's cell phone rang. Wu Lingyu glanced at it and became a little nervous. After picking up the phone, her voice was lowered unconsciously and she said: "Mom, is something wrong?"
After saying a few words, Wu Lingyu hung up the phone with a gloomy expression.
Zhang Yang asked: "What's wrong?"
Wu Lingyu said hurriedly: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a family matter."
Zhang Yang reached out and grabbed Wu Lingyu's hand and said, "For us, family affairs are a big deal. Let's see if I can help you!"
Wu Lingyu didn't want to tell Zhang Yang about her family affairs, because her family was in the countryside. After she went to college, the last thing she wanted people to know was that she was a rural child. For this reason, she didn't even ask anyone from her family to send her off. She was frugal.
I use online shopping to buy clothes just to make myself more like a city dweller. After hesitating for a long time, Wu Lingyu whispered: "I didn't go home during the Chinese New Year. My mother asked me how I was doing!"
Zhang Yang said in surprise: "Why didn't you go back during the New Year?"
Wu Lingyu smiled bitterly and said: "It's not just to save some travel expenses! You can earn more by working during the holidays. My family is from a rural area, and I have two younger sisters at home who are also studying. They all need money, so just save what you can!"
"
Zhang Yang said oh and patted Wu Lingyu's thigh with emotion. He had also lived through hard times and knew how sad it was to have no money.
Speaking of which, Wu Lingyu didn't intend to hide it anymore and continued: "My family is very poor, with less than ten acres of land in total. My parents are both farmers. I have known since I was a child that there is only one way out if I want to change my destiny.
That is studying. So my grades have always been very good and I have never fallen out of the top three. You know, studying is actually very tiring. I feel like vomiting when I look at those textbooks every day."
Hearing Wu Lingyu pouring out his heart like this, Zhang Yang fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to do.
Wu Lingyu was immersed in memories and said: "Other girls wore beautiful clothes, but I could only wear old clothes from my relatives. Others were playing on the computer and holding mobile phones, and I could only watch them from a distance. For me,
Even an ordinary mobile phone is a dream. They order the best food in the cafeteria and throw it away after a few bites. They go to the supermarket to buy snacks. I didn’t know what potato chips tasted like before I went to college. Do you believe it?
? When I earned my first salary as a tutor, the first thing I did was buy potato chips because I had never eaten them. Why am I so thin and my legs so long? Because I have to walk more than ten miles hungry every day.
I have to go home through the mountains and I can’t afford the accommodation fee.”
Zhang Yang sighed and said: "You are suffering more than me!"
Wu Lingyu shook his head and said: "You and I are from different worlds. These things are just like jokes to you. City people and rural people are like two parallels. I want to be a city person and I have to pay more than others."
It took a lot more effort. Finally I succeeded and I could walk into the city. But when I got here, I realized that everything here requires money. You can't live without money. So I didn't go home during the winter vacation last semester.
I stay and work to make money. Do you know what I do?"
Zhang Yang shook his head.
Wu Lingyu said: "I don't want my sister to work as hard as me. She has to study until midnight every day. Children in the capital can definitely go to college if they study casually and take any exams. But here, we are not among the best.
I can't pass the exam at all. I think my sister can live a life like a city dweller without having to go to college."
Zhang Yang opened his arms and said, "Come here!"
Wu Lingyu hesitated for a moment and fell into Zhang Yang's arms and said: "Actually, I like you, not only because you are handsome, not just because you are rich, but because you live a good life. I am in your eyes
I have never seen a look of disdain, even if you know that I am wearing clothes worth more than ten yuan, even if I never pay a bill when I go out with you. This is enough for me. "
Zhang Yang said: "Your mother is calling because the family needs money?"
Wu Lingyu shook her head and said: "No, they are afraid that I don't have enough money, so they want to send me money. I can't ask for it. I know how hard it is for them to get the little money. Our family only buys ten thousand handfuls of land a year.
Yuan, after deducting the seed cost, there are still several thousand yuan left. The family of four lives in a tight life. If I want, I will take the money from their mouths. Although I am snobbish and vain, I do this kind of thing.
I don’t want to come out. I know that they have placed all their hopes on me, waiting for me to change their lives after graduation.”
Zhang Yang asked: "Where did your family come from and it was so difficult?"
Wu Lingyu said: "Henan!"
Zhang Yang said, "He knows there are many people but little land there. As a province with a relatively large population in the country, it is really difficult."
"Actually, my family's conditions are also very poor. Do you know why I didn't go to college?" Zhang Yang said.
Wu Lingyu said: "Didn't you say that your health is not good and you have to take a year off from school?"
Zhang Yang said with emotion: "I said that for others, but actually it's because I don't have money to study in college. I don't want my parents to look at other people's faces and borrow money everywhere. It's too difficult. So as soon as the college entrance examination is over
, I told myself that I would never let my parents beg for money again, and I would make money on my own. Although it is difficult to make money, it is much better than asking for money. When you lend money to others and extend your hand, you are like a beggar.
"
Wu Lingyu looked at Zhang Yang in surprise, almost unable to believe what he heard.
Zhang Yang continued: "Just for this, I came out from my hometown to work. In fact, I also knew that going to college can change my destiny, but I didn't feel it deeply at that time. I felt that as long as I could make money, it would be fine, and my parents would not have to work so hard.
That’s enough.”
"Then you're here first!" Wu Lingyu asked puzzledly.
Zhang Yang said: "It's hard to describe in one sentence. In short, we have gone through untold hardships and several life-and-death crises before we are in today's situation. You look at me well, but you don't know the pain behind me. Oh, how can I start talking about everything?
This is coming."
There were already tears in the corners of Wu Lingyu's eyes, and she hugged Zhang Yang vigorously and said, "It feels really good to hear what you say from your heart. I feel like we are so much closer all of a sudden."
Zhang Yang shook his head helplessly and said: "Lingyu, have you ever heard of a saying? If a man is rich, he will be bad, and if a woman is bad, she will be rich."
Wu Lingyu's body trembled. In fact, she had been worried that Zhang Yang would think that she was with him for money. Although this was a reason, if she said it so straightforwardly, her self-esteem would be a little unbearable.
Zhang Yang continued without waiting for her answer: "Now that I have money, I can say that I have learned bad things! You will also learn bad things!"
Wu Lingyu said with a trembling voice: "I don't understand!"
Zhang Yang smiled and said: "If you follow me without any reputation or status, isn't that just a bad lesson?"
Wu Lingyu snorted and said, "Who said I would follow you."
Zhang Yang did not continue and said: "Let's go to the bank while there is still time!"
"What?" Wu Lingyu asked.
"You give your parents the money from your scholarship and part-time job to send home to make their lives easier. If you give them more money, they will have crazy thoughts. You will not be short of money in the future. Follow me and become a bad woman.
, you are considered a bad learner, you no longer have to worry about money." Zhang Yang said.
Wu Lingyu didn't know what to say. Zhang Yang said this, which made her feel a lot better. It left too much room. He didn't support her as mentioned on the Internet, nor did he ask her to be her lover. This was enough. The purpose of her coming out
It is to change the life of a family. Now that we can do it, what is there to be dissatisfied about? Thinking of this, Wu Lingyu hugged Yang Yang's neck hard and said: "As long as you want me, I will never leave you."
Zhang Yang smiled and didn't take it seriously. Whether or not we leave depends on the future.
