Before Wang Xiaohong could speak, Hu Fangfang burst into tears.

"Xiao Xia, you are the smartest, what do you say I should do. ”

Tian Xiaoxia was a little confused, how could she be smart? Why didn't she know.

Still, she asked, "What's wrong, what to say." ”

As if she had grasped the backbone, Hu Fangfang walked up to Tian Xiaoxia and sat on Tian Xiaoxia's bare bed, regardless of the fact that there was a large layer of ash on the bed.

"Xiaoxia, my mother is laid off, my parents are in the factory, the factory is going to be laid off and restructured, our two families in the factory will bear the brunt, only one can be left, my mother will be laid off, if my mother is laid off, my father can go to work well. ”

Tian Xiaoxia nodded, a worker's salary of two hundred yuan, even if there is only one worker in the family, that life can go on.

"But just a few days after my mother was laid off, my dad and the others began to take turns to work, and they could only wait for two and a half days a week at most, and their monthly salary was only more than 60 yuan. ”

When Tian Xiaoxia heard this, she probably understood what was going on, Hu Fangfang's father was the boss, and he was the factory that took over her grandfather's class, and she spoke before, because her father took over the shift, so her two uncles basically didn't care about their grandparents, that is to say, Hu Fangfang's family had to be fully responsible for the old couple.

Even if Hu Fangfang doesn't spend much money now, it will be very difficult to support a family of four for more than 60 yuan.

They are all urban hukou, unlike rural areas, how to find rice in the field is enough to eat, and from time to time there can be some small vegetables in the field, at least they don't starve to death, let alone small vegetables, as long as they open the fire, they will ask for money.

"Xiao Xia, I know you have a way, you can set up a stall as soon as school starts, can I let my mother come to work on your stall, I ...... I really don't want to see my mom go to the market to pick up leaves. ”

Tian Xiaoxia looked at Hu Fangfang in surprise, not surprised that she wanted her mother to work at the stall, but just surprised that she needed to go to the vegetable market to pick up leaves. Seeing that it's cold, don't you still have to pick up cinders?

If it was an ordinary poor family, Tian Xiaoxia would not feel that there was anything about it. However, this man used to be a worker.

In this era, the workers of state-owned enterprises used to be such a proud and proud group, they lived a decent life, the workers walked with their chests up, the work clothes issued by the factory were their pride, and even the labor protection gloves issued were bright and enviable.

However, the workers used to be probably the most enviable in this era, but now, Hu Fangfang's mother can actually put down her head to pick up vegetable leaves, and in the face of life, all pride and pride have become useless.

At this time, laid-off, in fact, is not necessarily a bad thing, at this time, laid-off, think a little more can take advantage of the east wind of reform, it is not difficult to get out, it is better than to survive to 2000, the last batch of people who have to be laid off.

Tian Xiaoxia patted Hu Fangfang's hand, "Fangfang, don't worry, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." ”

Hu Fangfang is not in a hurry, she heard that Tian Xiaoxia found an aunt on the stall, and then she remembered to ask Tian Xiaoxia for help, she really felt sorry for her mother.

"Xiao Xia, my mother is very capable......"

"Fangfang, have you thought about it, it's very inconvenient for my aunt to come over to work, it's okay to come over in the afternoon, but in the evening, there are no buses after ten o'clock. What to do?"

Hu Fangfang sobbed: "That... That... Let her live in my dorm and sleep with me. ”

"Fangfang, it's not a matter of one or two days. ”

Hu Fangfang looked helpless, probably begging her classmates was her last resort.

"Don't worry, think about it, I'll help you think about it, it's not a way to help at the stall. ”

Tian Xiaoxia's words were like a spark falling into hot carbon, which ignited Hu Fangfang's hope in an instant, "Xiaoxia, you really want to help me, you are the most powerful around me, study well, and you can do business, no one can help me except you." ”

Bill, that's awesome? That's a lot of people.

Xu Promise snorted and did not speak.

Tian Xiaoxia looked up at her, she just waved her hand, "My throat is uncomfortable." Then he coughed twice.

You appeased Hu Fangfang, "Okay, I must think of a way, you also have to relax, don't affect your studies." ”

Hu Fangfang nodded and returned to her seat.

Wang Xiaohong saw that he was almost finished talking here before saying, "Xiao Xia, how are your feet, I see that you are still using crutches." ”

"It's a lot better, but it's still not okay to throw crutches. ”

Wang Xiaohong nodded, "Okay, then I don't care about you." Manman, the academy literacy ball in the evening, Xiao Xia can't go, you have to go. ”

Gu Raoman who was named stretched out his head from the bed to look at Wang Xiaohong, "What literacy ball?"

"The school has a New Year's Day dance, and the college is worried that most of the new students will not be able to, so they will eliminate illiteracy in advance and find seniors to hand it in. ”

Tian Xiaoxia felt that the impact on himself in the past ten minutes today was a bit big.

She almost forgot that she was back in her youth, when there were no computers, no mobile phones, and no rich club activities. The dance party is one of the few entertainment activities that students can look forward to.

Boys, girls, and even teachers, ballroom dancing together during the semester, and even competitions, Tian Xiaoxia couldn't stand the instigation and mandatory requirements of the college in his last life, even if he was bored to study, he couldn't stand the instigation and the mandatory requirements of the college to go there a few times.

As soon as he talked about the ball, Gu Raoman was interested, "Is it just literacy tonight?"

Wang Xiaohong nodded.

"I won't go to literacy, I can ballroom dance, why is the dance going to New Year's Day, it's still more than a month. ”

"It's said that this semester will take care of the new students, let the new students learn first, and there will be more in the next semester, and there will be competitions if you don't get it, and there will be dances on weekends or festivals. ”

Gu Raoman's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Wang Xiaohong nodded, "I heard that this is the case, if you can jump, you can not go to literacy, but you can go over and play." ”

"Well, let's see how it goes in the evening. ”

After Gu Raoman and Wang Xiaohong finished speaking, they said to Tian Xiaoxia, "Xiaoxia, can you jump?"

Tian Xiaoxia shook his head.

She really can't, she went twice in her previous life and watched silently, and in later words, it was "the little princess of the fruit plate" is not right, there is no fruit plate, only melon seeds, that is the "little expert of melon seeds". You can eat melon seeds until you get on fire overnight.

"Hey, hey, hey, when you're ready, I'll teach you, no, I'm learning women's steps, and I have to find a man to practice with you, hahaha. ”

As soon as Gu Raoman finished speaking, Tian Xiaoxia unconsciously made up the scene of himself and Zhuo Hang dancing.

Tian Xiaoxia slapped Gu Raoman on the head with a red face, "What crazy things are you talking about." ”

Gu Raoman didn't think much about it, after all, when it comes to the relationship between men and women, it seems normal to blush.

"Eh, Xiaoxia, the skirt I bought in Shanghai can be worn to the ball, bring the shell curtain you gave me, hehehe, it must look good." ”

Tian Xiaoxia ignored her.

"However, it's the New Year, it may be cold in that dress, Xiao Xia, let's go to the mall again when we have time. ”

Tian Xiaoxia ignored her, and she could also talk happily by herself.
