But after living in the countryside for so many years, being virtuous does not mean that she cannot curse. Even when her anger burst into the sky, her vocabulary of curses was much richer than that of Lu Li, a student who paid no attention to what was going on outside the window.
Not to mention that she is a strange woman who has managed to stay at home for 11 years without getting married on her own.
At this moment, the gunfire was in full swing, and the words that accused her of being supercilious at first could only be regarded as a bland appetizer.
So much so that Lu Li had no power to resist.
…
Pearl has always disliked her sister-in-law.
Money is money, money is money, education is education. It was because she saw that Dacheng liked him and loved him so much that she could barely hold on.
Besides, she also has a little plan for her new wife--a prospective college student, her life will be better in the future, so she can support her family... Even if she can tutor her own children, she is just scratching her head, and she doesn't expect to reach the sky in one step.
And so on, just hoping that life can be better.
Because of this, she reluctantly gritted her teeth and dug out money from between her teeth to support Lu Li's education.
But in fact, when you don’t look down on it, you still don’t look down on it.
Dacheng's younger brother Daren was so young that when he came back from school he would either feed the pigs or work in the peanut and corn fields. Lu Li lived in school and only came back for three days a month.
During these three days, she basically did nothing. Feeding pigs, chickens, and washing dishes was her daily job.
It is normal for ordinary families to dote on their children, but the problem is that their family is different. They have less labor and more debts...
Okay, I can tolerate all this. After all, scholars have smart minds, so they can’t be tired from work.
Pearl also understands in her heart.
What really changed completely was when she gave birth to her child, I heard that Lili also took 500 yuan back - how much can a student earn by working part-time in school? Being willing to take it back proves that you care about this family and your family.
They have feelings, even if they are just borrowing them.
Over the years, because their father-in-law was sick, because they got married to build a house, because their sister-in-law went to school... they had become numb to borrowing money from relatives, friends and people in the village.
It's all hard-earned money, not borrowing it is a duty, borrowing it is a favor, Pearl can see it very clearly.
Therefore, I accepted Lu Li's feelings in my heart and sincerely planned to be nicer to her.
But now, what does she know?
At this moment, she felt the fire of her ignorant karma rising from the soles of her feet to the Tianling Cap. If Lu Li stood in front of her, she could chop her to death with a knife!
"Are you a human being? Are you a human being?!"
She was like crazy, regardless of the fact that although she was pregnant, she had not fully recovered her health, and she did not care that she was at Aunt Zhang's house. She was filled with resentment at this moment——
"Lu Li, have you lost your conscience? How did your brother treat you? Ah! Dacheng was only eighteen when he was admitted to college, and you were just born. He was an old man. He went out to cut down trees for others during the day and came back at night.
I'll take the shit out of you, my mother has no milk, and your milk powder is all his hard-earned money!"
"When we were walking in the mountains when it rained and snowed when we were in school, when was it that he didn't carry you back on his back? Later, when you got older and couldn't carry it anymore, he would carry your luggage for you——"
"I'll carry it until you enter the third grade of junior high school! It's a two-hour mountain road! You grew up drinking his blood and sweat. You can be ruthless when riding a horse!"
"Do you know why my parents don't agree? Just because they said they will always support you in school... After paying for junior high school, you can go to high school. Yes, there is no tuition fee. Tuition fees, tutoring materials, and living expenses are not money. How much will it cost to support you through college?
, have you calculated it?”
Pearl's family did not agree because the burden on their family was too heavy.
It's so heavy that you may not be able to stand up for half your life.
"Lu Li..."
Pearl was scolding and crying at the same time. Aunt Zhang couldn't help crying outside the door and quickly came in to help her——
"My family is already in debt. Do you know how you borrowed the 7,000 yuan for your tuition? Dacheng wrote IOUs to others and kowtowed to them one after another..."
"Ahhhh——"
Pearl was holding the microphone, crying loudly, and fell to her knees on the ground.
As for his sister, she had several thousand yuan in her hand, but she borrowed five hundred yuan and had to wait two or three hours.
Aunt Zhang was also in tears - they are all from the same village. Who in this village is as blessed as Lili?
Although her family was poor, no one in her family was willing to make her suffer - how could she raise such a white-eyed wolf?
She heard it just now - when Pearl gave birth to her child for surgery, she deliberately withheld the money!
But Pearl couldn't help it anymore: "Auntie... I had a uterine incision and I can't have children -"
…
On the other end of the phone, Chen Siyu was close to the tree and was stunned when she heard Pearl's roaring voice at close range from behind.
How much money can Lu Li make per month?
Ding Wei and Bai Shanshan didn't care, but she settled the account clearly for Lu Li.
Although she didn't know that Lu Li had lost three students.
However, according to Chen Siyu's calculation, Lu Li had four students and five classes per week, and the hourly class fee was (3*1002*90)/5=96. She also had to make up extra classes on Saturdays and Sundays.
, a minimum of 10 hours per week... In other words, even if the manuscript fee is not paid, after deducting transportation and meals, she can earn at least 850 yuan per week for tuition fees.
This is still the lowest.
Not to mention her income during the National Day holiday.
The average is three to four thousand a month. This has been more than three months. Apart from buying a mobile phone for 2,700 and clothes for one or two thousand, she has not seen any other big expenses.
Chen Siyu was sure that she had at least 6,000 yuan in her pocket right now.
Even last month, she must have had three thousand dollars in her pocket.
Just this, 500 yuan or two hours spent in someone else’s life-or-death situation?
She shuddered.
…
On the other hand, amid Pearl's accusation, Lu Li wiped her tears and regained her composure.
She's had enough.
In the dormitory, she was pinned down by Ding Wei.
In class, Professor Wang looked at himself as if he were looking at nothing.
There are no close friends among classmates.
I was even humiliated when I took tutoring classes.
——She is no longer poor now and has a mobile phone to dress up. Why is the world still so harsh to her?
Now, even his sister-in-law, who is about to graduate from high school, is pointing at him and scolding him——
She's had enough!
fed up!
She must make these people regret it!
Lu Li took a deep breath:
"Sister-in-law, you mean it's all my fault?"
"You fell down with your big belly. Can you blame me?"
"Everyone else is strong when they are pregnant, but you are in the hospital now and then in the hospital...you still have the nerve to blame me?"
"Then do you know how I live? I am the poorest in the class, and I am always the last to pay for living expenses and materials. Even though it is so difficult, I endured it and passed the University of Ming Dynasty——"
"Yes, my brother comes to pick me up every time - but that's because he happens to be working in the town every time. It's close to my school, so he doesn't come here specially."
"And he came over right after finishing his work. My classmates saw the clothes he was wearing. Do you know how they scolded me? They said I was a picker of rags at home, that I was dirty, and that I didn't wash my hair or take a shower..."
"I've endured all this."
"There is also the matter of paying tuition. Is there anyone in our village who is admitted to the University of Ming Dynasty besides me? Is it so difficult to go to school just because I am a girl?"
To be honest, Pearl was confused for a moment.
What does borrowing money have to do with a girl going to college?
Her family values boys, but they don't prevent girls from going to school! It's because she's not that good at school and can't study well, so she doesn't go to school after graduating from high school.
But this does not affect her combat effectiveness.
Even Lu Li's retort made her wipe her tears and immediately forget the pain just now. At this moment, all she wanted to do was beat this bitch.
"Okay! Isn't it amazing that you got into Mingda University? Let me tell you, your brother got into junior college 17 years ago. Do you think it is easier for you to get into university now, or is it easier for your brother to get into university back then?"
"It's not your brother who's tutoring you. You're so stupid! You didn't pass junior high school math!"
"Why, it's great to be rich now? With just three or four thousand yuan, you have the ability to pay off your debts!"
What Lu Li is most proud of is that she was admitted to the University of Ming Dynasty, and she applied for it from all over the country.
Hearing Pearl's dismissive look at this moment, everyone went crazy——
"Can his shabby junior college compare to my school? If you tell me, it will be embarrassing - besides, how do you know that I can't pay back the money? I can easily earn three to five thousand yuan a month now -"
When she said this, Lu Li felt a little painful in her heart. Just now, her income had dropped again.
However, you cannot lose the battle if you lose.
So she continued: "This is not counting my royalties! The story I wrote will be published soon, and it may cost tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands..."
She looked down on such a woman: "Don't you just want money? I'll give it to you! I don't want family members like you who are focused on my money!"
Pearl: "I——"
There was no sound on the other end of the phone.
After a while, the familiar voice of Dacheng’s mother came:
"Lili, mom doesn't want your money, mom didn't teach you well... If you don't want a family like us, just don't want it, and don't call me again in the future."
"So be it."
After saying that, the phone beeped.
Lu Li held the phone, her eyes full of disbelief——
What is her mother doing?
She is already making money...does she think she can scare herself?
But at the same time as this incredibly absurd feeling, a deep sense of exhaustion and loss welled up in her heart.
Lu Li knelt down, buried her head in her arms, and didn't make a sound for a long time.
Chen Siyu leaned against the big tree, covering her chest and exhaling silently.
It's so exciting.
This kind of family ethics drama.
I never expected that a person like this, who usually doesn't like to talk and keeps things in his mind, could have such a weird brain circuit and do such horrible things - he would dare to delay giving birth to a child and have an operation. I don't understand
Or don’t you take human life seriously?
Also, the voice on the phone was so loud, but she clearly heard how Lu Li's brother and sister-in-law treated her, and that alone could make her do such a thing——
People should not be judged by their appearance.
Chen Siyu's heart was pounding, and she couldn't wait to go back and share this gossip with everyone. At this moment, the phone in her trouser pocket suddenly vibrated. Although it was not obvious, it was vague around the big flower bed in the cold wind.
Sounds can be heard.
Lu Li suddenly raised her head from her arms and said warily: "Who!"
Chen Siyu covered her chest and thought to herself - right? You can hear the voice at such a low level?
The shock mislead me!
She took a deep breath and was even prepared for a quarrel when Lu Li found out. But at this moment, a boy slowly walked out from the other side of the flower bed.
The other person had a gentle smile, was thin, about 1.75 meters tall, and was gentle and polite.
The boy sighed: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hear it. I was sitting there before you came."
This voice - why does it sound so familiar?
Chen Siyu endured her doubts and listened patiently.
…
Lu Li was a little panicked when she saw it was a boy.
In her limited life, she had only a handful of encounters with boys in a quiet space alone.
Not to mention, the other party looks very elegant.
It just... seems a little familiar.
"you……"
Lu Li blushed in embarrassment for a moment.
Part of the reason is that I'm afraid that the other party will hear something that they shouldn't hear. Another part of the reason is that I'm afraid that the other party will think that I'm wrong. And part of it is that it affects the girl's thoughts.
However, the boy opposite sighed:
"Don't worry, I won't tell this matter. Everyone has their own difficulties. Just like me, I am from a poor family and am looked down upon by others."
The other party frowned melancholy, with a distressing look in his eyes:
"Besides, I have also been misunderstood and ostracized. Right, junior sister."
The boy laughed good-naturedly, with no trace of the past in his eyes: "When I had a conflict with Xie Yan before, I saw you there - your name is Lu Li, right? I'm Zhou Wenkang."
…
WTF, WTF, WTF!
Behind the big tree, Chen Siyu's heart started beating again.
What kind of wind is blowing today? It can bring these two people together!
She now sees clearly what a scumbag Zhou Wenkang is - he can't afford to start early if there is no profit, but whatever he wants, he must have a plan.
Also proud and picky.
According to Chen Siyu's analysis, Lu Li's style...should not be within the scope of Zhou Wenkang's interest, right?
It’s not like they both come from poor families, so they feel the same way and have a special understanding?
Chen Siyu's gossipy heart was so excited that it almost stopped beating. At this moment, leaning against the big tree, she completely forgot about the text message just now.
That was sent by Ding Wei——
There are still fifteen minutes until class starts.
It takes at least ten minutes to walk from this flower bed to the classroom.
…
In fact, Chen Siyu's analysis was originally correct.
but--
Who made Zhou Wenkang break up?
He and Cui Yu had been in love for so long, and for the first time they broke up for no apparent reason - is this woman mentally ill?
He just had hemorrhoids, as if his halo was broken - haven't you heard that nine out of ten people have hemorrhoids?!
So insulting!
But after all, Cui Yu has a bright future. She has a house and a salary. He can't give up just for a while. Zhou Wenkang decided to give her up for a while so that he can handle it better, so he hasn't found that Cui Yu's bank card has been hacked yet.
Reported lost.
However, this incident also gave rise to Zhou Wenkang's sense of crisis.
You can't put all your eggs in one basket.
There is no chance to contact Ding Wei when she is alone. Who can say that this classmate who can earn three to five thousand a month and will earn tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands in copyright fees in the future is not his cup of tea?
…
But do it reluctantly!
Facing Lu Li's glowing eyes, Zhou Wenkang smiled softly.
