She used to feel a lot of pressure when she was studying, and she always felt that adults didn't understand her. It wasn't until she came out of society that she realized how hard it was to be an adult.
Once you leave society, you no longer have the qualifications to act coquettishly or escape.
The difficulties you encounter are not something that can be overcome by crying or being scolded a few times. They are a huge bottomless pit of family, children, mortgage, rent, living expenses, etc.
Once you stop, you will face a desperate situation. There is no saying that you will try harder next time and do well in the exam.
Life will only push you forward, keep moving forward, and never stop.
Listening to her daughter's sweet words, Huang Xiulan's heart softened. She hugged Cen Li and kissed her sweetly, saying, "You are really my mother's sweet baby, and my mother loves you too." Huang Xiulan felt that as long as her daughter was here, her life would be smooth.
Hope means not fearing anything.
Early the next morning, Cen Li carried a large sack and said to Huang Xiulan, "Mom, I see people are here to collect lychee meat again. I will go to the lychee forest to pick up some and I will be back at meal time."
It was only around seven o'clock now, so it was not good to disturb Bai Xuanyuan so early. She planned to go there after lunch, so she would have more time.
"Then just bring a small bucket. What are you doing with such a big bag?" Seeing Cen Li holding a sack, Huang Xiulan was puzzled. A little girl like her couldn't pick up too much and couldn't lift it.
"A bag is more convenient, I'll leave first." Cen Li couldn't explain, so she could only prevaricate and ran away.
"Slow down, be careful not to fall, this kid..." Looking at the retreating figure, Huang Xiulan shook her head helplessly and continued to do her work.
There are many large lychee forests in the south, just near Cen's house. Children often go there to play, and she is quite familiar with the roads.
There were not many people in the forest in the morning, and the sun shone in through the gaps in the leaves, falling in spots on the ground, illuminating the dark forest.
In my ears, I can still hear the chirping of birds, which is very lively.
The early bird catches the worm. She had to speed up and pick up more while there were fewer people around. Otherwise, it was summer vacation and there would be too many children picking up fallen lychees.
Entering the lychee forest, after the precipitation last night, a lot of lychees fell on the ground.
There are also requirements for picking lychees. They cannot be rotten or stale. They must be relatively complete. Otherwise, they are not fresh enough and people will not want them.
Cen Li picked it all the way in from outside, because there was no one there yet and there was no competition, so the picking went very smoothly.
While picking them up, she paid attention to whether there were cicada sloughs on the tree trunks. When she saw them, she quickly packed them in a small bag carefully. Don't look at these small things. Two of them can be sold for a dime, so they are quite valuable.
Along the way, I picked up some bottles and cans along the way.
The lychee forest was so big that it was impossible for Cen Li to pick up the entire forest, and she was also afraid of getting lost, so she almost started walking back.
As a result, we met several children from the Cen family's neighbors.
Seeing them, Cen Li looked very unhappy.
Because her father was not at home all year round and did not protect his children, the children in the neighborhood despised her and often ganged up to bully her.
Whenever the adults were not around, she would lock herself at home and dare not go out.
"Look, he is a little fool!"
Sure enough, as soon as he saw her, a boy who looked like a teenager pointed at her with a branch and shouted her nickname.
