There were two classes in the morning, one big class in the afternoon, and self-study in the evening. Ding Wei originally thought that she would be unable to sit still - after all, due to her work habits, most of the really efficient study time was more inclined to high-efficiency fragments, and in
Intense and coherent study late at night.
But I didn't expect that I would be so focused on all the classes during the day.
Sure enough, it is better to be young.
Of course, it does not rule out that the content taught by the teacher is really interesting.
The evening self-study ended at nine o'clock. During this period, the monitor proposed to pay a class fee, tentatively set at twenty yuan per person, which made Ding Wei, who was already poor, feel hurt again——
A mere twenty yuan!
twenty dollars!
The one who was more sad than her was naturally Lu Li, which made her determined to find a part-time job tomorrow!
If nothing else, let’s earn back the class fee first...
Back in the dormitory, Bai Shanshan's cell phone rang. Chen Siyu looked at the cell phone she took out, but didn't see that it was the deluxe version. Thinking about it, it seemed that the difference was not big, and she felt much better. No matter how eloquent and eloquent Ding Wei was,
How about it? I’m not a poor guy who can’t even afford a mobile phone.
She smiled proudly and took out her HTC now: "Oh, my phone only costs a few hundred yuan, and the polyphonic ringtones are not as good as Bai Shanshan's... I'll replace it next month."
Ding Wei didn't even realize the boasting of this sentence - how excellent the polyphonic ringtones on mobile phones are these days!
However, social animals only remember their own DingTalk reminders.
She just remembered that she hadn't called home yet.
So I took out the phone card that cost ten yuan, which was quite a memory.
After all, most of them were from out of town and went to college. Even those who did not have mobile phones were arranged to have them. No one paid attention to the public phone in the corridor. Ding Wei entered the first few long groups of numbers in sequence, the phone number.
After ringing several times, the other end was picked up.
"Who?"
"mom."
Ding Wei said calmly.
"Hey, it's different when you go to college. You're so busy and you're still willing to make phone calls? You know you still have your parents at home? I think it's a vacation and I don't even plan to come back."
The tone was neither yin nor yang, like a longing complaint or a loving accusation.
However, Ding Wei was able to calm down.
"Mom, my military training ended only twenty days ago, and I have just returned to school for the second day."
The other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, as if he was not familiar with this style. Then Bai Xiujuan reacted: "In that case, during the National Day holiday, you will only be in school for ten days in total? Then next month I will give you
Two hundred yuan for you."
Ding Wei burst out laughing - she was still working in finance, why didn't she think of these ten days?
She smiled and asked: "Then I don't need to go home on November? I don't have the money for the ticket, and the things in school are very expensive, and the living expenses are not enough...Mom, my classmates all have mobile phones..."
Bai Xiujuan cut her off impatiently on the other end: "Why are you so extravagant? A few hundred dollars are just gone? You have to have one if your classmates have mobile phones? Then why don't you exchange parents with your classmates? We are so poor.
Your parents don’t dare to wrong you.”
Ding Wei didn't say a word, she thought to herself: I would like to change it! But why should my child suffer this injustice?
If I had not been reborn, I would have borrowed company money to buy a house when I returned to the company, and then had to take out a bank loan, and eat steamed buns and porridge to pay off the debt. With my financial level, even if I go to court, I won’t be able to support your second child!
Isn’t this the end of the world? At the worst, you have to pay your parents alimony every month, and you can raise your precious eggs by yourself!
After working for so many years, there is no family in the group, what else can I do?
If it weren't for my poor health...
She thought about it and felt a little regretful, but she thought about how rare and precious time is in youth, and rebirth is mainly about improving herself, so she felt better again, so she didn't hang up the phone for now and waited patiently.
Sure enough, Ding Haiyang came over and spoke next: "Weiwei, you are a girl, just do well in your studies, don't bother with all this nonsense, vanity! A few hundred yuan is not enough for living expenses, how did you spend it? We had
When I was in school, I couldn’t bear to pay five cents for a bowl of pumpkin soup in the school cafeteria. Think about your living expenses, it’s not easy for your parents to make money!”
Pumpkin soup for five cents? Oh, in 2005, you couldn’t even spend five cents!
Moreover, both parents are employed (although one of them took advantage of the restructuring of the company to retire directly, and because he was not satisfied with the retirement salary and made a fuss, he was forced to have his pension reduced...)
However, despite this, Bai Xiujuan and Ding Haiyang, who have five insurances and one housing fund, can still get a combined monthly salary of 8,000 yuan, not counting welfare and bonus performance.
In a small town in 2005, there was no mortgage, the property fee for the unit and community was 10 yuan a month, water and electricity did not exceed 50 yuan, a breakfast was 2 yuan, and 8,000 yuan was enough to survive. How could it be so difficult?
The tuition at the University of Ming Dynasty is only 7,000 yuan a year!
Ding Wei's heart was as clear as a mirror and her heart was as still as water: "Okay, I don't want the mobile phone, but I don't have the travel expenses home. The sleeper berth costs two hundred and thirty yuan."
Ding Haiyang didn't hesitate: "How come you don't have any hard-working and simple style at such a young age? What kind of sleeper does a little girl take? The travel expenses are so expensive, don't come back, study hard in school."
Ding Wei thought to herself, she was just young and inexperienced back then! Otherwise, how could she be so tolerant?
She also interrupted Ding Haiyang: "But dad, after seven days of vacation, it still costs money to live on campus."
Ding Haiyang:……
How could this damn girl spend money today!
Bai Xiujuan quickly took the phone over: "Then you go to work. College students all have work-study programs, so you have to exercise in advance. Weiwei, you can't be too ambitious and too weak!"
Ding Wei finally revealed her ultimate goal: "But Mom, I have no money. I can't even buy a phone card. I only have this one for ten yuan. Eating in the school cafeteria is also expensive, and you have to swipe your card to take a bath... Mom, I really want to
You guys, if you can't get home, can I make a call? Give me some money and I'll buy a fifty-fifty phone card."
Bai Xiujuan breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone was much more relaxed now: "Why don't you buy a phone card? Mom knows you miss us, and we miss you too! But what can we do if we are far away? You are not willing to let you go to school locally.
——Let’s do this, call less when you have nothing to do, save some money, and eat more!”
The love between fists and fists is evident.
Ding Wei sneered and hung up the phone obediently.
There was another girl in the corridor who was about to make a call. She seemed to have heard something, so she hesitated for a long time before suggesting: "Actually, if you don't have money for the phone card, you can make an appointment with your parents and let them call this public phone every day.
…”
Ding Wei thought to herself: I said the same thing back then, but it's a pity...
Bai Xiujuan and Ding Haiyang were not very punctual, and they were impatient to waste phone bills on the phone. After three or two times, there was no response. Ding Wei was so frightened that she thought something had happened at home, so she hurriedly called again...
