Zhou Can didn't see Zijun for a few days after school, he was in the next class, he looked for it outside the classroom a few times after class, but he couldn't see it once. Xiao Ping came out of the classroom with a smile like a flower, thinking that he was looking for her, so he didn't know how to answer, so he had to squeak and squirm.

All kinds of speculations are spinning in my heart, and I don't know where to find a breakthrough for a while, and the feeling of loss can be imagined. Later, I simply asked Xiao Ping directly, isn't Chen Zijun your classmate, why didn't he come to school?

Only then did Xiao Ping know that he was looking for Chen Zijun from time to time. His face almost didn't stop, and when he thought that there would be no more Chen Zijun in the future, his heart became happy again. She knew it, of course, but she wouldn't say, she just said that I didn't know and ran into the classroom, and she had time for him to see only her.

After a half-day holiday during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Can went home to say hello to his parents and went out.

Chen Zijun suddenly didn't come to school like this, and he was always worried about it. There are only about a dozen people in their school who were admitted to Longcheng No. 1 Middle School together, and there are only two classmates in the same class, Zijun and Xiao Ping.

Xiao Ping said he didn't know, and he didn't know who to ask about it. Coupled with the shyness of the young man, he was embarrassed to inquire about her all over the world. But Mr. Hu, the homeroom teacher of the first (sixth) class of high school, came to him that day and asked, you are classmates, do you know why she didn't come to school?

For an excellent student like Chen Zijun, the teacher is naturally very concerned. Xiao Ping is a dance student, and Teacher Hu doesn't know which junior high school she graduated from.

Teacher Hu's question gave him a legitimate reason to go to her.

He had been to Zijun's house once, and they were not very familiar with each other at that time. On that spring outing, more than a dozen classmates rode bicycles to the suburbs for spring together. I was thirsty and tired from playing, and I don't know who said that Chen Zijun's family lives nearby. So a crowd of people crowded around her and went to her house. Zijun was sitting on the steps to wash clothes, and when he saw his classmates coming, he hurriedly moved the stools.

She was alone at home, and she was pleasantly surprised when her classmates came. Warmly entertaining everyone, she was a little scrambling at first, but finally made a table of meals for them by herself.

He thought at that time, how can there be such a girl, who is humble, smart, beautiful, kind and so capable!

When he came again, Zhou Can's mood was completely different. He didn't pay much attention to the scenery around him at all, he just wanted to meet her quickly and ask her why she didn't fulfill her promise and why she didn't go to school.

The courtyard door was slightly open, and Zhou Can pushed his bicycle into the courtyard. The yard is quiet, the door is open, there should be someone in the house.

"Chen Zijun, Chen Zijun—" Zhou Can shouted twice at the top of his throat. At this moment, a clear and bright voice came from behind, "Who?"

Zhou Can was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that he hadn't run in vain, and he happened to be at home today. But a wave of doubts arose, why didn't she go to school at home? Was she sick? As soon as this doubt flashed out, I saw a young girl with a ponytail and a suit of shorts and shorts holding a small shovel and wearing a pair of sandals came through the back door, and the shovel and hands were covered with fresh dirt.

This girl wore a long ponytail, and her figure and appearance were somewhat similar to Zijun, and Zhou Can from a distance thought it was Chen Zijun. When I saw the person clearly, I felt a wave of loss again. This girl is younger than Chen Zijun, she is also smaller, and her face is more childish.

"Who are you?" is this voice, at first he thought it was Chen Zijun, but now when he hears it again, it is still different, it seems that he really misheard.

"I was Chen Zijun's classmate, and our teacher asked me to ask her why she didn't go to school. He had already thought of this reason, otherwise a male classmate of his would suddenly come to her house single-handedly, just to care why she didn't go to school, and why others would think it was not normal.

"My sister went out to work. ”

"What?" his voice rose a few degrees, and his eyes were full of disbelief: "Let her go to work, let her go to work, you are not mistaken, right? What do your parents think, and your sister agrees? You are really too much, you are really ......" He felt unfair and angry, and his anger was blocked in his heart, and not saying it could drive him crazy. He was so angry that he was a little incoherent.

He had heard that many rural girls went out to work after graduating from junior high school, but he never thought that this would happen to Chen Zijun, either the first or second in the school, and the parents of such girls are also willing?

"Who, piece?" Chen Zijun's mother, Wang Lanfang, also came out of the back door carrying a bamboo frame with mud.

"Sister, Mom. ”

"Auntie. The teacher asked me to ask Chen Zijun why she didn't go to school, and the teacher said that she was a good seedling, and it was a pity not to go to school. Zhou Can hopes that her words can change the fate of Zijun going out to work, it has only been half a month since school started, and it is not a problem to make up for the missed courses with her cleverness.

"Meimei, go and help this classmate move a chair. Zimei answered, and quickly ran into the inner room and moved two chairs out.

That anger still hasn't dissipated, "You are so irresponsible, you will delay her for the rest of her life!"

"Well, we can't help it. Wang Lanfang burst into tears when she said that, although she also felt that it was useless for a girl to read too many books, but she had never left her for so long when she grew up so big, and she didn't know if she was doing well outside, so she couldn't stop thinking of these tears.

Now the farm work and housework are all on her as a woman, and she has to face the man who needs to be taken care of in bed every day, but no one mentions that she has to hide and secretly shed tears a few times every day. Today, I listened to the words of my daughter's classmates, and remembered that my man had always said that he wanted his two daughters to go to school well, and he was sad for a while, and he couldn't help it in front of a child.

"Mom, don't cry. Zimei's voice was also choked, she missed her sister no less than her mother, the two sisters had been sleeping together before, except for not reading the same grade, they did everything together. Now that my sister is out, she is alone at home with her mother, and my father is not good, and this family has long lost its former happiness.

Before he could accept Zijun's mother's words and tears, he heard an irrepressible cry coming from the house. That was the first time he saw Zijun's father, a middle-aged man who was not tall and majestic, with a thin and pale face, lying on the bed crying like a child, pounding the bed, and saying sorry for his daughter.

"Dad, don't be sad, sister, she won't blame you. ”

Looking at the crying family of three, Zhou Can's eyes were also red. Thinking of his merciless questioning just now, he felt guilty.

He felt sorry for Zijun, but what right did he have to question them? He couldn't do anything!
