“...... What else did you say to let Xiaoya go to the town to study in junior high school, where did she get so much money to go to the town to study...... Outside, it doesn't cost anything to eat and stay......"

“...... When you talk about things, you talk about things, and what do you talk about......"

“...... Why was I blind in the first place, and married a man like you......

“...... What do you call me this man, you make it clear to me, you make it clear to me today......"

The little girl stood in the yard, at the door of the house, clutching the stack of money in her pocket tightly, silent, pursed her lips, and looked at the hidden door.

The sound of quarrels still rang out through the door.

“...... What do you mean, it means that you are useless with the surname Chen...... What's the matter, the old lady has a sentence that is wrong......"

“...... I'm useless? I'm useless......."

“...... Bang!"

A crash sounded heavily, and the quarrel in the house fell silent,

There was a lot of noise in the house, and a middle-aged couple with red faces turned their heads one after another and looked at the door of the house.

The little girl pushed the door open hard, and the door was smashed against the wall next to it.

With her head buried and her hands still tightly clutched, the little girl walked into the house with her head bored.

“...... Xiaoya is back, why is it so early today...... Are you hungry, your mother said you didn't have lunch today and went out. ”

The man in the middle-aged couple barely squeezed out some smiles, smiled at the little girl, and said out loud,

The little girl kept her head and walked up to the couple, still with her head down, and she didn't make a sound.

“...... What did Teacher Xun teach you today?"

The man smiled reluctantly and continued,

“...... Come, Xiaoya, sit down and rest. ”

As he spoke, the man pulled out a stool and placed it next to the little girl.

The little girl stood with her head shut, still silent, nor sat down.

The man looked at the little girl, the smile on his face gradually converged, and he was silent,

“...... Xiaoya, you told me yesterday that you wanted to go to the town to study, and I discussed it with your mother......"

As he spoke, the man paused again,

“...... You're not too young, you should be sensible, right...... You also know that your mother gave birth to a younger sister to you a few years ago, and your sister needs to spend money on food and clothing, and it also costs money in the house...... It's all about spending money......"

The man spoke, and some couldn't continue, looked at the little girl, opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything,

“...... Xiaoya, Dad is incompetent, Dad is sorry for you......"

“...... After finishing your studies at Mr. Xun, you will stay in the house for two years, and then you will ......."

As the man spoke, his voice stopped abruptly, and he couldn't continue.

Because the little girl took out the stack of money from her tight pocket.

Although the stack was flattened, it still looked a little wrinkled, and it was neatly arranged one by one, ranging from a hundred yuan a piece to a small five cents, which looked a little old.

Raising her head and pursing her mouth, the little girl stretched out her hand, took the stack of money, handed it to the man, and looked at the man stubbornly,

"Xiao Ya ......"

The man called out, opened his mouth again, and didn't know what to say.

“...... This is what my teacher gave me, and he said, I went to junior high school with the money, and he gave it. ”

The little girl stretched out her hand, pursed her lips again, and took a breath,

“...... The teacher also said that this money is for me to study, and if you spend it elsewhere, he will come to you and talk to you!"

The little girl said crisply, her hands still outstretched, her eyes stubborn, looking at her parents.

“...... Lesser. ”

The man opened his mouth, looked at the little girl's stubborn present, looked at the crumpled pile of money again, opened his mouth, called again, and nodded again,

“...... Dad got it. ”

Stretching out his hand, the man reached out and took the stack of money,

The little girl looked at her father, pursed her lips again, and then let go of her hand.

......

“...... Lao Chen, Lao Chen......"

At this moment, a somewhat anxious voice sounded outside the door of the house with the sound of hurried steps, and a villager pushed open the hidden door, looked into the house, and hurriedly walked in.

“...... Old Xu, what's the matter?"

The man put the stack of money in his pocket, turned around and looked at the anxious appearance of the visitor, and hurriedly asked.

After the visitor entered the house, although his face was still eager, he did not speak directly, but turned his head and looked at the little girl standing next to him.

“...... Xiaoya, you go and pour a glass of water for Uncle Xu, and boil the kettle in the kitchen. ”

The man turned his head and said to the little girl,

The little girl turned her head to look at the man and the comer, but turned and walked towards the kitchen.

Seeing the little girl walk into the kitchen, the visitor quickly turned his head again,

“...... Teacher Xun is going to die, if you want to go over and have a look, hurry up. ”

Somewhat anxious, the person who came said to the couple in a loud voice,

Hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the couple also became a little more anxious.

“...... Wasn't it okay yesterday...... Aren't you going to give your children back lessons in the morning......"

“...... Eh, that's how old you are...... Before, I estimated that I was relying on one breath to hold on, but now I can't hold on...... If you want to go, hurry up...... I'll go first, and I'll have to inform the other family...... Don't tell the little doll in the house...... The teacher ordered, saying don't tell these little dolls yet......"

The man hurried a few more words, then turned and walked out of the house again.

When the man saw the man leaving, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

Turning around, he touched the stack of money in his pocket again, and looked at the folded and old money, the man was silent again,

“...... Xiaoya, if she wants to go to junior high school, let her study...... When the time comes, I'll go to the town to find some more work, and by the way, I can take care of her. ”

Raising his head again, the man said in a voice to the woman,

The woman heard the sound and nodded.

“...... Yes. ”

“...... Then let's go over now......"

“...... Xiaoya, you stay in the house by yourself, I'll go out with your dad, some things ......"

The woman shouted again to the little girl who was pouring water in the kitchen, and hurried out with the man, trotting past the old man in the village.

The little girl put down the water glass, followed her out of the house, put her feet on the mat, and looked over there with some doubt in her eyes.

......

Village's mouth,

Along the village road, Lian Ge moved his steps, and then walked to the entrance of the village, on the ramp that extended on the mountainside road,

Turning his gaze, Lian Ge glanced at the village, paused for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and looked outside the village, on the slope,

On the slope, a young man in his twenties, carrying a large bag of luggage, was walking down the slope.

It seemed that there was too much luggage, and it was a little heavy to carry, so he stopped again, gasped, put down his luggage temporarily, and rested his feet.

Lian Ge moved his steps, went up the slope, and continued to walk forward,

Walking to the young man's side, Lian Ge stopped, turned his gaze, and looked at the young man,

"Let's go faster. Your teacher is waiting for you. ”

In a calm tone, Lian Ge said something, raised his hand and waved it lightly, and then moved his foot,

was panting, looking at the young man in the village who was resting his feet, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Lian Ge, with some doubts in his eyes,

opened his mouth and wanted to ask, but saw that Lian Ge had already walked away, so he could only turn his head again,

However, the young man still stopped to rest, picked up his luggage again, and walked towards the village with a somewhat fast pace.

This time, along the way, the young man did not feel tired again, nor did he stop.
