Zhao Yuejun's singing voice seemed to be the reincarnation of little Teresa Teng, Lin listened quietly without speaking, and when Zhao Yuejun finished singing the song "Story of a Small Town", Lin Ping pressed the play button again to stop the playback of the tape recorder, and then applauded and praised: "The singing is so good." ”

"Really? Thank you. Zhao Yuejun said with a happy smile.

Lin Ping looked at the somewhat dirty bed bedding again, and the smell in the room also made Lin Ping dare not let go of his breath, and then walked out of the room and sat in front of the grandfather of the two sisters and brothers.

The grandfather of the two siblings poured a cup of tea for Lin Ping and the others with a teapot full of tea stains and dirty marks, the teacup was cracked and chipped, and it looked unclean, and the wooden table was also jet black, giving people the feeling that a thick layer of mud could be scraped off with fingernails.

Lin Ping, Ma Zhongguo and Zhao Zhongyi didn't mean to drink the cup of tea in front of them. It's not discrimination, it's just that in this family environment, except for his own family, a normal person is unwilling to hold that teacup in his heart.

Lin Ping was a little thirsty, but he couldn't have the courage to hold it up after staring at the cup of tea with the ups and downs of tea.

"Zhao Wuji, you go to the house with your sister first, close the door, I have something to talk about with your grandfather. Lin Ping said to the brother and sister.

Zhao Wuji looked at Lin Ping, then at his grandfather, and under the nod of his grandfather, Zhao Wuji took his sister's hand and returned to their room and closed the small wooden door.

After the two siblings entered, the room was silent for a while, no one spoke, and everyone just sat like that.

"Principal Lin, what are you here this time ......?"

Before the grandfather of the sister and brother finished speaking, Lin Ping suddenly opened his mouth and asked softly, "How long will their father come out?"

Hearing Lin Ping's sudden question, Ma Zhongguo and Zhao Zhongyi both looked at Lin Ping in surprise.

The grandfather of the sister and brother raised his head nervously and glanced at Lin Ping, then lowered his head and said, "There are ...... Eighteen years. ”

Zhao Wuji in the house snuggled in his sister's arms, Zhao Yuejun gently leaned against the wall and gently hugged him, and the sister and brother were silent and didn't say a word.

"Has their mother contacted you and seen these two children?" Lin Ping asked again.

The grandfather of the two siblings shook his lowered head: "That woman ran away with someone not long after she was born without illness......

The grandfather of the sister and brother sighed softly and said: "This can't be blamed on others, the family is poor and still owes debts, and I am like this, Liwu has been sentenced for more than 20 years, and no woman can stand it." ”

And their family is indeed sorry for the mother of two children, because the first child was born of a girl and was still blind, and Zhao Yuejun's mother was not less discriminated against and domestic violence in this rural family.

Lin Ping looked at the ups and downs of the tea stalks in the cup, and said in a deep voice: "It's not okay for these two children to do this, and living like this is not a good guarantee for their health and future." ”

The grandfather of the two siblings raised his head and glanced at Lin Ping, and then said, "I know, I can't help it." ”

Zhao Zhongyi followed Lin Ping's words and said: "Actually, it's okay to have no disease, after all, you can still receive a good education when you go to school." It's just that this uncle, your family, Yuejun, is very problematic. ”

The grandfather of the sister and brother lowered his head and held his hands, his waist was arched very low, almost sticking to the table, and he didn't say a word.

"Yuejun is sick, and you can't take care of your eyes. Zhao Zhongyi opened his mouth and said, he had already figured out what Lin Ping meant.

Lin Ping opened his mouth at this time and asked, "Zhao Wujian doesn't live in school now?"

Zhao Zhongyi nodded and said, "Yes, I don't live in school." ”

Lin Ping looked at the grandfather of the two sisters and brothers and said sincerely: "Let Wuji live in the school in the future." Also, if you can trust the school and trust us, give Yuejun this child to our school. ”

The grandfather of the two siblings raised his head to look at Lin Ping, his brows furrowed slightly, and his flickering eyes showed that his heart seemed to be constantly struggling.

And Lin Ping and the others didn't speak, waiting for the grandfather of the two siblings to answer.

The grandfather of the sister and brother stared at Lin Ping's eyes for a long time, and Lin Ping also looked at his eyes silently, neither of them spoke, but they communicated silently through their eyes.

After a long time, the grandfather of the two sisters and brothers lowered his head, and then said, "Are you going to marry my family Yuejun?"

Lin Ping was stunned by the words of the two brothers and grandfathers, Lin Ping was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile: "How is it possible? I am more than ten years older than your granddaughter, aren't you kidding?"

The grandfather of the two siblings lowered his head and said, "It doesn't matter if the man is older. ”

Lin Ping shook his head again and again and said with a smile: "Impossible, impossible." ”

"Although Yuejun is blind, she has a good heart. The grandfather of the two siblings said, "You don't plan to want her, why do you take her away?"

Lin Ping and Ma Zhongguo glanced at each other and laughed helplessly.

Ma Zhongguo patted the grandfather of the Zhao family on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother, I brought her to school so that she can be better cared for, receive a better education, and have a better way out." ”

The grandfather of the sister and brother shook the head buried in his chest: "A blind man and a girl, what other way out? Yuejun's only way out is to marry a good family." ”

Not only the grandfather of the Zhao family will have such a ridiculous idea about his granddaughter, but some parents and even the girl herself will have this idea - "A woman's greatest success is to marry a good man." ”

There are also people who say that "a woman is half the success if she finds a good man", then "a man who finds a good woman is definitely half the battle".

But it is undoubtedly quite foolish for both men and women to count their fate on finding a good man or a good woman.

The grandfather of the Zhao family is even more so, as he said, in his heart, the only way out for the blind granddaughter Yuejun is to be able to find a good family, and he has no hope for his granddaughter.

In his eyes, his granddaughter Zhao Yuejun is a waste.

And the social facts seem to be the same.

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Although I won't marry your granddaughter, I can help your granddaughter find a good family." ”

The grandfather of the sister and brother raised his head and looked at Lin Ping, and then said, "What you said is light, how can it be so easy to find." ”

At this time, Zhao Zhongyi opened his mouth and said: "Uncle, let Yuejun, this kid follow Principal Lin and the school, no matter what, it is better than following you." You see you're here, you don't eat well, you don't dress well, your house is dirty, and there's no one to clean it. Yuejun looked sick and sick, and there was no blood on his face. When the time comes, if there is really a disease or a disaster, it will be even more difficult to find a mother-in-law, and those old singles who can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law may want it. ”

The grandfather of the siblings did not speak.

Zhao Zhongyi opened his mouth and said: "Uncle, your family is like this, it's really not a good thing for Yuejun to follow you." Principal Lin is a good person, willing to help your family, seeing that Yuejun is pitiful, he is willing to pull a hand. Otherwise, who would like to adopt Yuejun? Do we have it in the village? Do we have it in the mountains?"

The grandfather of the sister and brother raised his head and looked directly into Lin Ping's eyes: "You are willing to want Yuejun's child, but you don't marry her, you are not married, let a teenage girl follow you, what do you say about Yuejun's innocence? If you do something to Yuejun, she is blind and can't resist......

Grandpa Zhao's words made Lin Ping laugh, but he could understand that Grandpa Zhao's worries were correct. There are always men who are beasts, in case Lin Ping is a beast, then the grandfather of the Zhao family is equivalent to sending his granddaughter Yuejun to the wolf's mouth with his own hands.

Lin Ping smiled and said, "No, no, no, you have to understand that it's not me who wants to adopt, but the school, the Zhongguo Hope School." There are female teachers and staff in the school, for example, Ms. Zhao's wife works in the school, and there are many female students as well. After Zhao Yuejun enters the school, she will live with the women, teachers and students of the school. There is a difference between men and women, and of course I will not let this child live with me. ”

Ma Zhongguo also said at this time: "Our school also adopted an orphan from Liujia Village......

The grandfather of the two siblings nodded and said, "Well, I know, I've heard of it." ”

Zhao Zhongyi also opened his mouth at this time and said: "Uncle, there is no woman in your family now, you are like this, and you are also old, it is not convenient to take care of this girl Yuejun." ”

The grandfather of the sister and brother said stubbornly: "I am her grandfather, and there is nothing inconvenient about it......"

But when it came to the back, the voice of the Zhao family's grandfather became much softer, and he didn't have any confidence in his heart.

There was silence in the house again, and the grandfather of the Zhao family shouted into the house: "Yuejun, you come out, grandpa has something to say to you." ”

The wooden door was gently opened, and Zhao Yuejun walked out of the house, and then groped his way against the corner of the wall with some lost and sad expressions on his face.

"What about no disease?" asked the grandfather of the Zhao family.

Zhao Yuejun squatted on the ground, holding his knees with both hands, resting his chin on his knees, and whispered, "I fell asleep without illness." ”

The grandfather of the two sisters and brothers asked very bluntly: "Yuejun, I know you have good ears, and you heard what we said just now, right?"

Zhao Yuejun squatted at the base of the wall like an injured kitten, and then nodded.

Indeed, what Grandpa and Lin Ping said was heard clearly by Zhao Yuejun in the house, and there were some words that she couldn't understand, but she knew the content of their conversation.

The grandfather of the two sisters and brothers continued: "Then Yuejun, you make a decision, what Principal Lin said with your loyal uncle and this teacher Ma is quite right. I'll take you two brothers and sisters with me......"

As he spoke, Zhao Yuejun's grandfather choked up: "...... It's also very hard, you have no father and mother now, your brother is so young, and you are like this, I can't give you too good living conditions. Seriously...... After all these years, I don't starve you two to death, and I think I've done enough. ”

Saying that, the grandfather of the Zhao family couldn't help but shed old tears, over the years, no one can understand the discrimination and grievances he has suffered, only he knows that he has experienced many more tribulations than any normal person. No matter what he does, he has to sneak away from others, no one wants to talk to him, and he doesn't want to talk to others.

He felt like a plague god, everyone was afraid to avoid it, and this state was also transmitted to his granddaughter and grandson, the two children were isolated by their peers around them since they were children, not to mention Zhao Yuejun, she had no friends at all, and she almost never left the house.

Sometimes, he wondered what he would do with the siblings if he suddenly died, so he kept telling himself that he had to survive, at least to see the day their father was released from prison.

Today, he may want to send his granddaughter away, the grandfather of the Zhao family suddenly couldn't help crying without knowing how, he also knew that Lin Ping was right, Zhao Yuejun would not get better with him, it would only get worse.

"Grandpa, don't cry. Zhao Yuejun heard her grandfather's crying, her face became even more sad, and then those empty eyes also left tears, tears crossed her face from the corners of her eyes, she raised her hand and wiped her tears with her sleeve, and then said, "Yuejun knows that grandpa is difficult, and Yuejun doesn't want to leave grandpa and younger brother, but Yuejun listens to grandpa." ”

At this time, Zhao Yuejun knew in her heart that although her grandfather pushed the choice to her, she actually had no choice at all.

Seeing his grandson crying, Ma Zhongguo couldn't help but sigh, and there were a little tears in the corners of his eyes.

Zhao Zhongyi also sighed and said: "Uncle, Yuejun, don't be so sad, the school is not far from us, and Yuejun is not the water spilled by the girl who got married, what, you want Yuejun, or Yuejun misses you, you can tell me, I will bring Yuejun back from school by the way." Moreover, it is the right to be Yuejun and Wu Ji, and go to school in school. ”

The grandfather and grandson nodded while wiping their tears.

Zhao Zhongyi said again: "You can also see your brother often, anyway, he is in school." ”

Although Zhao Zhongyi's words played a role in comforting the grandfather and grandson, the grandfather of the Zhao family and Zhao Yuejun both knew in their hearts that some things were easy to say, but it would be difficult to do when the time came. Once Zhao Yuejun leaves this family, she can no longer get along with her grandfather and younger brother, and from the moment she enters the school, she is actually like a girl who has been married.

Lin Ping looked at the pair of grandchildren and grandchildren, and also said: "Grandpa Zhao and Yuejun, don't be too sad, just like Teacher Zhao said, on weekends and holidays, you grandparents and grandchildren can still see each other at any time, and spend the New Year at home, and then come to school after the New Year." ”

The grandfather and grandson wiped the tears from their faces and nodded.

The grandfather of the sister and brother said: "Then it is decided, after this year, let Yuejun go to your school, you must treat her well." ”

Lin Ping nodded and said, "Of course." ”

[System: Zhongguo Hope School adopts a blind girl Zhao Yuejun. 】

Grandpa Zhao glanced at Lin Ping: "If you can, I hope you can fulfill your promise, Principal Lin." ”

Lin Ping was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Of course, we will take good care of Yuejun, and try our best to let her receive an education and have a good way out and future." ”

"No, just find her a good family. "The grandfather of the Zhao family still remembers the matter of finding a good family for his granddaughter.

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Yes." ”

"Otherwise, you will have this child, although Yuejun has bad eyes, he is still very good-looking. "The grandfather of the Zhao family still hopes that Lin Ping can become his grandson-in-law.

Lin Ping smiled helplessly and shook his head: "No, but don't worry, I will help her find a better one than me." ”
