On the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, most people who had been making a fuss for a day and a night took a nap at home. Wang Jingyi sneaked out of the house and walked east along the road.
She didn't know where she was going, but she knew clearly that she didn't want to stay at home. If she couldn't go to school after the New Year, she would definitely go out to work. If she went out to work, her insomnia would definitely be more serious; if she continued to sleep, she would definitely go out to work.
If you can't realize it, it's better to...
There was joy everywhere, but Wang Jingyi kept thinking about how to get to a dead end.
Walking across the Fuchuan River and standing on the bridge, Wang Jingyi closed her eyes and felt the cold wind from the river. If she jumped down, it would definitely be even colder than now, right?
Two days ago, she went to her aunt's house to deliver New Year's goods. She was taking a task. She wanted her father to go with her, but Wang Yuchun was smoking a cigarette, flipping through his philatelic album, and said, "Just go by yourself."
.”
"But... Dad, I have to borrow the tuition fee from my uncle for the next semester..."
"Then he will give it to you if I go?" Wang Yuchun said calmly: "I won't go to borrow money."
Although he had expected such an ending, Wang Jingyi still couldn't accept it.
Wang Yuchun spitted out the smoke ring and said, "You go and ask him first. You are a child, and even if you don't lend it to you, he won't say bad things. But it's different to me, and he won't be polite to me.
”
Wang Jingyi really doesn't want to go to her aunt's house. But for the next semester, she bit the bullet and wants to go there. Without her parents' support, she can only be strong by herself. Fortunately, her younger brother, who is doing her homework, took the initiative to ask,
You have to go with your sister. It is better to be companionship with two people than to force yourself alone.
Holding two boxes of pastries and a roast chicken, Wang Jingyi took her brother to her aunt's house. Her aunt planted a greenhouse two kilometers away from Wang's house. Winter was originally slack season, but their family was still busy.
.
Wang Jingyi found her aunt in the field. Her aunt was carrying two buckets of water to the greenhouse. Seeing this, Wang
Her behavior seemed to be pleasing, and she was too diligent.
Bang...
My uncle kicked the stool at the door of the greenhouse and spat deep, and said angrily: "Who put this thing here? It's really blocking the way, and I'll be annoyed when I see it!"
The Wang siblings were connotated and stood there immediately, not daring to show off.
The aunt complained to her husband: "What kind of temper can you get in front of the child? You are not happy, go home to sleep! - Jingyi, Haochuan, the tomatoes in the greenhouse are not growing well, this crop is not yet ripe, probably
You can't sell it before the New Year. Your uncle is anxious and doesn't speak well, so don't take it to heart."
"Yeah, aunt, you and uncle have worked hard, we know."
"Hey, I hope this year will pass smoothly!"
My aunt was worried, and she shouldn't have pretended to show it to the brother and brother. Wang Jingyi's mood became heavier. If the harvest was good and the uncle was in a good mood, it would be easy to borrow money; if the harvest was not good... Wang Jingyi didn't dare
Thinking about it again, since you are here with a tough bullet, then give it a try!
My uncle's attitude made Wang Jingyi feel humiliated, but she couldn't give up easily. She kept telling herself that she must be patient, and that only by enduring can she have the opportunity to go to school.
At lunch, my uncle used the excuse of working in the greenhouse to ask them to eat first and not wait for him. My aunt had a fight with him again, and Wang Jingyi vaguely heard my aunt say, "Don't overdo it, they are children.
, but they are also guests. Is it a way to treat guests like this? Are you not afraid that Xiaobin will learn from you?"
"Guests? They are debt collectors! When did they come here to ask for money? This time, they will come to ask for money before the New Year! When will the money they asked for will be paid back?"
Wang Jingyi was explaining math problems to her cousin. When she heard these words, she couldn't raise her head. My cousin was quite sensible and pretended not to hear it. She turned around and went to play with Wang Haochuan.
When no one saw it, Wang Jingyi bit her lips tightly, and the joints of her hands were pinched and clattered.
Lunch was very depressed. Aunt's embarrassment melted into sighs. Wang Jingyi didn't say a word. She couldn't say - Auntie, if you are in a dilemma, don't lend it to me - she is too eager to go to school
, Auntie was her last expectation. If Auntie voluntarily refused, she would really have no hope of going to school.
"Jingyi, let me tell you the truth. Our family is really difficult this year. There was a flood in the summer, and most of the vegetables that had just been planted died. Your uncle and I felt so distressed that we hadn't eaten for several days. Our family
I contracted a fish pond, and I was cheated of the fish fry I bought and nearly half died. Your uncle went to ask for money, but the other party broke his head... I was not crying with you, but I was really in trouble..."
My aunt had no obligation to borrow money. But she apologized for this, which made Wang Jingyi even more sad.
It seems that I can't go to school anymore!
The dream was shattered, Wang Jingyi smiled bitterly and said, "Auntie, I know it's hard for you..."
"I'll drink two cups of vegetables. I'm so tired."
My uncle suddenly came back. He still smelled of fertilizers and pesticides on his body, and his clothes and shoes were covered with dirt. Wang Jingyi hadn't eaten at all, and when her uncle came, she didn't dare to move her chopsticks.
My aunt heated the dish up in anger and muttered, "I just know how to drink it. When you get a problem, you will have to spend money again!"
My uncle was exhausted, so he took a few sips of wine and took some strength. He clamped peanuts and stared at the Wang siblings, and asked, "Why don't your parents come?"
"They...all have something to do."
"hehe."
My uncle saw through Wang Jingyi's lies at a glance, and raised his head and drank another glass of wine. "You come to my house to borrow money, your dad knows?"
"...Hmm." Wang Jingyi agreed embarrassingly.
"You are still a child, and if you borrow money, he doesn't care?"
After being told by my uncle, Wang Jingyi could no longer control herself and tears burst out from her eyes.
My uncle said, "I didn't say you, don't cry. I said, you are a child, you come to my house to borrow money. If I don't lend it to you, then I'm too ruthless. If your father is a man, he should be a big man.
Fang Fangdi came together and told me, brother, the family has no money and the child still has to go to school. Can you help me? Make a document and set a time to repay the money. I will lend him money, so I will borrow it.
The money looks like. If he does this, can I not lend it? But why didn’t he come? Why did you two stand pitifully in front of me? Is this borrowing money from me or begging me? Force me to give it to you for nothing
money?"
Thinking of her parents' appearance of being unrelated, Wang Jingyi burst into tears again. She was not pretending to be pitiful, but she was really sad. Her uncle wanted to talk, but was blocked by her aunt: "Jingyi is pitiful enough
, What's your temper at the child?"
Wang Jingyi said, "Auntie, uncle, my parents are not responsible and can't hold on, but I can. According to my words, I can make a deposit, and I will pay back all the money I borrow, and the interest is the same as the bank's... As long as you
If I can lend me the money, I will definitely pay it back... I will repay you after graduating from college in the future."
"Oh, when you go to school, the tuition fee is on us." My uncle smoked and sneered: "Graduated from college... there are two years left in high school, four years in college... Could it be that we have to support you?
”
"No, as long as I get into college, I can go to work! I will study hard and get scholarships... I will find a way, but at the moment, I really have no way..."
"Oh, going to school, going to school is a bottomless pit!" Uncle extinguished the cigarette butts, his face full of sorrow. Finally, he took out his wallet and slowly ordered three big bills. He was so cruel that he added two more and handed them to him.
Le Wang Jingyi. He didn't say a word, didn't continue to eat, and walked out of the house again.
Wang Jingyi could only say thank you to her aunt constantly. Her aunt sighed and said, "Apart from your parents, I am the closest person to you. I feel sorry for you, you don't have to be polite to me. You are the most talented in our family.
Child, I hope you can go to a good university from the bottom of my heart... OK, don’t be too burdened, study hard!"
"And..." Aunt said angrily: "Jingyi, your parents are really not worthy of a child like you."
...
Wang Jingyi whispered: "Maybe, they are not that bad, it's because my ambition is too great."
Helping my aunt tidy up the kitchen, Wang Jingyi is about to take her brother home. Before she left the village, she was stopped by her aunt again. My aunt hurriedly caught up and stuffed her ten yuan into her hand: "You are at noon."
There was no meal, you go to the store with Haochuan to buy a hotpot, and then buy a ham sausage to eat! People are iron rice and steel, you are too thin, you have to eat well - go quickly, go quickly, don't let your uncle see it
