Chapter 018: A Letter from Far Away

Didn't he go to Fudan University in Shanghai as he wished?

It turned out that he was Tian Tian's neighbor in the same village, and at the same time, he was also Tian Tian's classmate, named Jiang Fan. When they were in school, they both had comparable grades and were both top three students in their class.

Tian Tian never wrote to him because he went to college, but he went out to work, so it was inevitable that he would have some loss and inferiority in his heart.

Besides, he is a college student, the pride of the sky like the morning star, and he is just one of thousands of foreign girls, the two of them are no longer on the same plane, and the disparity in identity is simply a world apart.

Well, it's strange, how did he know his address? He never told her.

Tian Tian had a stomach full of questions.

Back in the dormitory, Tian Tian couldn't wait to tear open the opening of the envelope, carefully take out the letter, and then read it.

Sure enough, it was Jiang Fan.

Tian Tian couldn't help but be proud of his accurate guess, and couldn't help but smile.

Tian Tian:

You okay?

I'm Jiang Fan. You must be wondering how I got your mailing address?

To tell you an even more unexpected news, I dropped out of school.

You know, Tian Tian? I've been back for five days.

I heard from the people in the village that the factory you entered in S City is good, so I want to go and see it too. It's just that your factory is still recruiting?

Now, you can guess how I know your address, right? Yes, I went to your house that day and asked your mother for it.

Tian Tian, everything is fine in your family, please don't worry too much!

Your mother specially asked me to bring you a message, saying, "Thank you for gradually freeing your family from poverty, and now, your family is getting better and better! ”

Tian Tian, this is your mother's original words.

All the teachers and classmates feel very sorry and sorry for the fact that you did not go to university as you wished, and they are also indignant at this unfair and dark society. Tian Tian, let you be wronged!

……

Seeing this, Tian Tian couldn't cry anymore, and the tears gushing out immediately blurred her eyes, and she couldn't continue to look down.

In order not to let tears wet the letter in her hand, she hurriedly moved it aside.

Tian Tian is a sensual person, whether she is moved, excited, sad, or compassionate, as long as it touches her heart, she will cry like rain.

She sobbed while wiping her tears or snot with a tissue, and at the same time wondered, "Why did Jiang Fan drop out of school?" Tian Tian really couldn't understand why he didn't want to go to such a good university, but he wanted to come out to work?

It's a helpless move to come out to work by himself, doesn't he understand?

After getting off work at ten o'clock that night, Tian Tian sat on the floor in front of the bed and planned to write a concise letter to Jiang Fanyan.

Sails:

Hello!

Today, I am both happy and thrilled to receive your letter. Thank you!

But what I don't understand is why you dropped out of school?

As for part-time jobs, I don't think you need to work if you can go to school, because I don't think working is the best option for you right now.

Of course, you have the freedom of your ideas and choices.

However, I would like to say that part-time jobs, perhaps, are not as good as you think. The outside world is very exciting, but the outside world is very helpless, Fanzi, this is the true portrayal of migrant workers.

Perhaps, the corners of your mouth twitched, and you said disdainfully, "Isn't it just to endure hardships? I'm not afraid! I've been able to endure hardships and stand hard work since I was a child." ”

But, Fanzi, there are some things that are not subject to our will. It's not like we go up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots or chop firewood, and if we want to harvest more, we go early and go back late at night, and even, we don't rest in the middle, and blindly bury ourselves in work.

Do you know how many people in Shenzhen are unable to find jobs? Do you believe that there are people who have no choice but to live under bridges, in cement pipes on the side of the road, or even in graves because they have no job and no help from their fellow villagers? Do you know how many people were brutally arrested by the security guards because they did not "carry the three certificates" and then sent to Shenzhen or Huizhou prisons to be detained for 10 days and half a month?

Fanzi, you must think I'm being alarmist and scaring you.

But that's the truth, the brutal truth.

If you don't believe me, you can ask my cousin, who was once imprisoned.

It's easier for women to find a little bit, any electronics factory, a toy factory, everyone wants women, but men, more precisely, those who don't have a diploma and no skills, it's really hard to find a job that they want.

I can't say a word in the letter, so I'd like to talk to you on the phone. Fanzi, is there a phone installed in that retail store in our village?

If so, I'll give you my cousin's BP machine number, you give him the phone number, and explain when you're waiting there (preferably after work or on Sundays), and then I'll call you. BP number: 2768825

Fanzi, I wish you a happy and happy life!

On October 29, 1995, Tian Tian was on the board

After writing it, Tian Tian first went through it from beginning to end, and after confirming that the sentence was smooth and there were no typos, he folded it into a square shape, and then put it on the envelope that had been prepared next to it. Then, she wrote the address, name, etc. of the recipient on the envelope. Because there is no glue, I have to go to the post office tomorrow to seal it again.

When Tian Tian got up from the ground and habitually patted his buttocks, he found that his buttocks were cold.

Oh, oh, my right foot is so numb, uh! Ouch, it's uncomfortable to death! Tian Tian instinctively bared his teeth and let out a painful moan.

So, she quickly leaned back on the bed, not daring to touch the leg, just silently closed her eyes and bit her lower lip to endure.

From her extremely distorted face, you can see how uncomfortable she is!

After about two or three minutes, perhaps, the discomfort gradually faded away.

Tian Tian opened her eyes and found that the other roommates had gone to bed separately. She looked at the watch on her right wrist that she had bought for twenty-five yuan, and it turned out that it was almost eleven o'clock.

Oh, time flies so fast!Tian Tian couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

The next day was a Sunday, so the whole factory was closed because there was no need to rush the goods.

But Tian Tian still got up at six o'clock, she didn't like to sleep lazy.

She likes to go outside to breathe in the fresh air, to feel the silence of the morning, and to listen to the beautiful music of the birds in a mango grove where she and her friends often walk.

After having breakfast in the factory, Tian Tian walked out of the dormitory, she first went to the post office to send the letter, and then turned back to the village entrance and waited for the bus.

At this time, a minibus came over, in order to pick up passengers, the door was open, and when Tian Tian determined from the driver's mouth that the car would pass through Longgang, she stepped on the car with confidence.
