Chapter 4: Uncovered
Bai Jianguo pulled the old lady in embarrassment, "Mom, don't talk about it, it's all a family, and I, as an uncle, can't watch the child starve to death." If I can help, I can help, anyway, I also paid for this child to graduate from high school, but it is worthy of my eldest brother and sister-in-law. This child is not sensible, and we adults can still deal with her. β
A generous look turned his head. Bai Xiao said: "Xiao, I know that you didn't get into high school, and your grandmother asked you to go out to work, and you were unwilling, but your uncle has tried his best, and he can't let you repeat your studies for a year." Our family is a farmer who lives by farming, your uncle only has a few dozen yuan a year in the field, and your brothers and sisters in the family are also older, and they should start a family, and those who should marry should also prepare a dowry. Uncle really doesn't have the ability to help you anymore, I believe your parents will not complain about me if they know underground. β
The righteousness of these words was awe-inspiring, standing on the commanding heights of morality, Bai Xiao immediately saw the surrounding people sitting and watching, and the villagers couldn't help but nod when they listened to it.
You must know that Bai Jianguo is a well-known and honest person in the village.
Li Chunhua's eyes narrowed, and he stepped forward and pinched Bai Xiao's arm fiercely.
"Look, look, this is raising a white-eyed wolf, eating his uncle's and drinking his uncle's, but it's not for her to go to school, and he also throws us face, I just beat you up yesterday, even if your own father and mother have parents who don't beat their children, don't say that I'm your grandmother and hit you twice on the head, that's not right, what do you have to say today to go to the infirmary to get medicine, don't you just want the village people to point at our backbone and scold, saying that we are sorry for your parents and didn't take good care of you! Why is your heart so poisonous?"
The grandmother immediately helped her son to start smearing her granddaughter.
The eyes of the people in the village looking at Bai Xiao began to be wrong, and Bai Xiao, a child, has no influence in the village since she was a child, and others' impression of her has always stayed in the role of a quiet little girl who does not speak, no one knows what kind of character she is, and no one is a friend of her, you will not defend yourself, of course, what the Bai family says is what it is.
Someone has begun to persuade Li Chunhua, "Auntie, don't be angry, this child will be taught slowly when she is young, and when she grows up, she will know that you and she are good, and if her parents are not there, no one will teach her." β
"Yes, you know that we all know that although it is said that the package has been delivered to the household, there are two young men and a big girl in Jianguo after all. It is not easy to support yourself, children, not to mention that your eldest brother and sister-in-law are raising a daughter. Everyone knows the hardships involved. β
Li Chunhua was proud, lowered his head and sighed, wiped his eyes, pretended to be sad, and immediately won the sympathy of many people, and someone had already persuaded Bai Xiao: "Xiao, you can't be like this, this is your grandmother, your parents are gone, no one cares about you at home, it's your grandmother all these years, your uncle takes care of you, you can't lose your conscience." β
"That's right, even if your grandma beats you a few times, it's for your own good, even if it's someone's parents, the child is disobedient and beats twice, your grandma is sorry for you, you are 18 girls, you look at the few people in our village who can go to high school, it's you who didn't get into college, and you can't blame your grandma and uncle. β
"That's it, that's it!"
Bai Jianguo smiled innocently, "Don't talk about it, big guy, after all, this is my niece, no matter how I say it, it is also my brother's daughter, even if my own children can't afford to go to school and eat." I can't lose my eldest brother's children. β
Immediately, everyone was full of praise, all there, praising Bai Jianguo as a kind person.
Bai Xiao sneered, lowered his head, was silent for a moment and said, " Uncle, grandma, it turns out that the money I went to school was saved by my uncle, it seems that I was mistaken, I will go to my eldest sister now, uncles and aunts are not right for me today, I misunderstood grandma and uncle, that is because when my eldest brother came back, and when my eldest sister came to see me, he clearly told me clearly, eldest brother, I sent an allowance of fifteen yuan to my grandmother every month, and my eldest sister and second sister also tried to save two yuan from my mother-in-law's house every month to send it over, and my brother clearly told me that from the day he began to entrust me to my grandmother and uncle, he sent money back to my grandmother and uncle on time every monthγ
I just feel that I have let my grandmother and uncle take care of me, it is a drag on others, I can't eat and drink at home for nothing to go to school and others have to pay for it, my eldest brother and eldest sister and second sister said that even if they are tired and tired, they will save money for me to go to school, this time the admission letter has not come down and I don't know where my grandma got the news, I didn't get in, I didn't force me to go out to work.
When my eldest brother came back this time, he also told me that I must take the exam with peace of mind, and when the results come out, he will make arrangements. I didn't expect that the eldest brother and sister didn't give money to my grandmother and uncle at all, so I went to ask my eldest sister what was going on, and who the money was given every month. As soon as Bai Xiao's words came out, the whole village was stunned.
Li Chunhua and Bai Jianguo were also dumbfounded, they didn't expect Bai Xiao to know about the money.
When Li Chunhua and Bai Jianguo knocked Bai Xiao several times, Bai Xiao didn't say anything, they thought that this dead girl didn't know the money at all, but they didn't expect this dead girl to wait here.
The aunts who were still on Li Chunhua's side just now, this time, they feel uncomfortable, in the countryside, unless there are soldiers and workers at home, it is possible to have some foreign income subsidies every month, or just scratch in the ground, in addition to being able to eat enough, only by raising and selling eggs at home, and killing pigs in the New Year can they get back some money, and the family is tight all year round, so they rely on this little money to get by.
I didn't expect Li Chunhua's family to be so rich, and his grandson and granddaughter would give him 19 yuan a month, my God! That's 228 yuan a year, but this is a rich family in the village?
To say that, the high school that Xiaobai went to was provided by his brothers and sisters, of course, this is a matter of course, you must know how much Bai Xiao's parents cared about her at the beginning, and then think about Bai Xiao's days at Bai Jianguo's house over the years, even if she goes to school during the day, she has to get up early for breakfast and go up the mountain to chop wood, cut pigweed and feed the pigs, come back from school, clean up with water, cook for the family, and wash clothes, which is obvious to all.
Don't say that there are usually Saturdays and Sundays off, or winter and summer vacations, Bai Xiao is called by a strong laborer in the field.
