Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Orphan's Place
Liu Qingmei did not stay at home for several days to take care of her mother, as Lin Ping expected, and returned to school after only one day at home.
Lin Ping was stunned for a moment when he saw Liu Qingmei coming to school, and asked, "How is your mother?"
Liu Qingmei nodded and shook her head: "Grandma can get out of bed, she said she doesn't need me, let me continue to study with you." ”
"Oh, did you say that you let your mother come to school to cook?" Lin Ping asked again.
"Say," Liu Qingmei nodded, "But my grandmother thinks that 450 yuan is a bit low, and she said that she is afraid that it will not be enough for my living expenses in high school......"
Lin Ping smiled: "Oh, your mother is worried about this, then don't worry, I will help you with your living expenses, I will pay for your living expenses every month, let your mother come to school to cook, and do me a favor." ”
Liu Qingmei's eyes lit up after listening to Lin Ping's words, and she looked up at Lin Ping without speaking.
On the side, Feng Xiao also heard Lin Ping's words, and ran over with an unhappy face and said, "Teacher, why are you helping Liu Qingmei with her living expenses?"
Lin Ping said with a smile: "I didn't say that I wouldn't help you out, I was going to tell you when you were about to go to school, but in fact, it wasn't me, didn't the director of the swimming pool where Liu Dazhu went last time donate 20,000 yuan, it was originally donated to a few of you, so it was used for you." ”
Feng Xiao nodded: "Oh." ”
Liu Qingmei opened her mouth at this time and said: "However, even if the money is only used by the five of us, it is not enough for a year, and after all, it is donated to the nine of us, so it can't only be used by me, Feng Xiao and Liu Xiangqian, but also for Wang Yige and Wang Jianshe to leave theirs." ”
Lin Ping smiled: "It's okay, you still have subsidies for extremely poor students, and the teacher also has money." ”
"Really?" Feng Xiao asked innocently, "Teacher, do you have any money?"
Lin Ping winked mysteriously at the two children: "Of course, the teacher has money." Alright, let's go back to class. ”
Watching the two children return to the classroom, Lin Ping closed his eyes and asked himself: realistically, if there was no system, would he have the money to help these children? No, he couldn't do it.
In the afternoon, Lin Ping, who was in class, was lecturing on the podium selflessly, and suddenly saw a yellow light on Liu Xiangqian's head, and then raised his hand to interrupt Lin Ping's lecture: "Teacher!"
Lin Ping was a little unhappy when he was interrupted from the lecture, but he still asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
"There are people at the school gate!" Liu Xiangqian said, pointing out the window.
"You, you didn't pay attention to the class, did you?" said Lin Ping with a smile.
"The uncle at the door shouted for a long time, but you didn't hear it. Liu Xiangqian said.
Lin Ping looked out the window, and indeed, there was an old man in his forties and fifties standing at the school gate with a child who looked to be five or six years old.
"You're doing self-study in the classroom, I'll go out and take a look. Lin Ping said and walked out of the classroom.
When I got downstairs, I happened to meet Ma Zhongguo, who came out of the big toilet and planned to go back to the classroom.
"What's wrong?" asked Ma Zhongguo.
"There's an old man at the school gate who takes this child, I'll go and see it. Lin Ping said.
Ma Zhongguo nodded: "Oh, then I'll go with you." ”
Lin Ping and Ma Zhongguo came to the school gate, and the old man asked happily when he saw the two of them, "Are you two the teachers of this new school?"
Then he glanced at Lin Ping and said, "You are the Lin ...... in this school I've heard from the people in the village that you, a college student from the city, have taught a few high school students who are very good at taking the exams, and our whole village knows about it, and everyone is praising you. ”
Lin Ping smiled a little shyly: "Thank you for your compliment, is there anything wrong with you?"
The old man sighed and said: "That's the case, I am the village chief of Huailiutang Village on the other side of the mountain, I heard that a school has been built here, so I took this child to see, this child has a hard life, and he is left alone when there is no one at home, and he is of school age again, you can see if you can accept him." ”
Lin Ping looked at the little boy, the little boy looked very thin because of malnutrition, but the little boy looked at Lin Ping without fear of life, his gaze was more mature and firm than that of children of the same age.
Lin Ping smiled and asked, "What's your name?"
The little boy said, "Everyone calls me Asuo." ”
The old man said on the side: "His name is Sima Suo, his grandfather used to escape from the famine and brought his father to this mountain, his father is a doctor, a medicine picker, and fell from the mountain the year before last......
The old man stopped and touched the little boy's head.
At this time, Lin Ping realized that he hadn't opened the door, and hurriedly opened the door to let them in.
The old man touched Asuo's head and continued: "His aunt suffered from illness a long time ago, lying in bed, unable to do anything, and has no money to go to the city for treatment, all relying on his Abba to collect medicine and hang a breath, after the child Abba left, his aunt lay in bed for two years, and the first two months also left......"
The old man said and sighed: "This child has no relatives......
The little boy pouted and said, "I still have an older brother......"
"Yes, he also has a twin brother, lost, his father lost it a few days after his father died, I heard that he was abducted and sold...... the old man put his arm around the little boy's shoulders and said.
The little boy lowered his head and did not speak.
Lin Ping and Ma Zhongguo looked at each other without speaking.
"No one in the village wants to take him in, they all say that he is a lone star, a member of the Ke family. The old man said with some embarrassment, "He has been at home by himself for the past two months, and it is not safe or suitable for me to bring him food, so the new school has been built, and I wonder if I can send him here." ”
The Lone Star?
I don't know why these gossips can spread like a plague, the little boy has been very hurt when his parents and brothers are separated, these words are the second injury to the little boy by sprinkling salt on the knife edge, and now he is still ignorant when he grows up, and when he grows up, he doesn't know how much damage will be when he hears these words.
Lin Ping nodded without hesitation and agreed: "Of course you can, let him stay here in the future." ”
The little boy looked at Lin Ping: "Are you really willing to want me?"
Lin Ping touched Ah Suo's head: "Of course." ”
The old man happily pushed Ah Suo, like throwing off a burden and pushing Lin Ping and Ma Zhongguo: "Ah Suo, go quickly, this will be your Abba and Grandpa in the future." ”
Ma Zhongguo squatted down, stopped Ah Suo in his arms, and touched his head.
The little boy looked at Ma Zhongguo and hesitated for a moment and shouted, "Grandpa." ”
Ma Zhongguo touched his face and replied happily: "Hey, hey, good boy." ”
The little boy looked at Lin Ping and shouted again, "Ah ......"
Before the little boy could speak, Lin Ping interrupted and said: "Call me teacher, in the future, I will be your teacher, don't call me anything else, you are my student." ”
Lin Ping just wants to be a teacher, not a father for the time being.
