Chapter 038: Donations
Li Xiumei thought of the past, and then thought of her parents who had passed away for many years, and her heart was full of mixed feelings and melancholy.
"Mom, I don't want to do it before, and our family will live happily in the future. ”
Xu Ning saw the sad expression on her mother's face and understood that her mother remembered the past again. Knowing that her mother's maiden home was in another city, but she never went back, her mother said that she was kicked out at the beginning, and her uncle never wanted to see her again, and he didn't let her go back to drag them down, so he could meet Father Stone later.
But people have to look forward in life, just like her, if she always thinks about what happened in her previous life, she will definitely live a very painful life.
Li Xiumei also understood after listening to Xu Ning's words. After leaving the school, the three of them went to the nearby elementary school to pay the tuition for the stone. Shi didn't study in the village primary school this semester, and Li Xiumei found a school closer to home.
Entering the campus, Xu Ning looked around and confirmed that there was no problem with feng shui, the school house here looked better than the one in the village, after all, there were many rich people in the county, and the focus on education could not be compared with the village. I heard that there are more than 20 villages around the county, and this small county town is equivalent to a city.
The head teacher who found the stone signed up and paid the tuition, and like Xu Ning and them, the class will officially start tomorrow.
Li Xiumei watched most of the money in her wallet go, and she couldn't help but feel lost. After the two children paid the tuition, the family didn't have much money, and they had to make more money in the future.
"Mom, when I go home, I don't feel sorry for the money, and I will earn it back in the future. ”
Xu Ning knew what her mother was worried about, it was indeed not easy for a woman to raise two children, and she had to provide for them to go to school.
"Mom is not distressed, it is for you to study, learn things and grow ......knowledge," Li Xiumei sighed, in any era, illiterate and uneducated, it will be inconvenient to do things everywhere, not to mention that the country has already resumed the college entrance examination, and it is said that you can still arrange a job after graduating from university. So no matter how hard you work, you can't make the children suffer, and you can't stop them from studying.
After paying the tuition for the stone, Xu Ning and the others went to the orphanage not far from their home.
The orphanage takes in disabled children in the neighborhood who are fatherless, motherless, or unwanted. In those years, even in the county, there were relatively few wealthy families, and few people would donate, so the orphanage barely survived on the little money allocated from above. Xu Ning once passed by and felt that they were very pitiful, in her previous life, after her father passed away, she also felt lonely, and she could feel that these children sometimes felt lonely and hopeless when they were abandoned. So after she passed through that time, she thought that if she had money, she would want to donate here, which could be regarded as accumulating good deeds.
Just as they were about to enter, Xu Ning looked at the back of Brother Dong who had just left on the opposite road, and wondered why he appeared here?
After entering, I found the dean and explained the intention, the dean was very grateful to Xu Ning, and wanted to say that someone had come to donate just now.
"Dean, is it Brother Dong?"
"Yes, Brother Dong and the young master of the Gu family often help us, so the orphanage can support until now. The dean sighed. At the beginning, some people objected to her taking in these children, and some people thought that she took in some disabled and parentsless children, thinking that it was unknown, but fortunately, there was a young master of the Gu family, so that they could always live here, but Young Master Gu rarely came back, and then Brother Dong often came to visit the children and helped a lot.
Xu Ning didn't expect that those two men would also have such kindness, and it was reasonable for Gu Yichen to do good deeds, but Brother Dong, she couldn't understand that person, obviously a ruffian, a gangster's head, and often took a few of his younger brothers to swagger around. She really didn't expect that man would do good deeds.
Even Li Xiumei was surprised, but she thought she had heard it wrong.
When the three of them went home, it was almost noon, and the store was opened, but within a few minutes, a parent came to buy two pots of carnations, which had just started, and they looked at the flowers that were going to be given to the teacher.
When Li Xiumei saw it, she thought that when she had a chance in the future, she would also send it to the homeroom teachers of the two children, and parents hoped that their children would study well and have a good homeroom teacher to take them.
"Mom, I'll accompany you to Boss Chen's side in the afternoon to pick up some goods and come back, otherwise we will start school, I'm afraid you won't be busy alone." Xu Ning proposed.
Li Xiumei thought for a few seconds and said: "Okay, let's buy more small pots of flowers this time, although the profit is less, but it sells the best, and then you can also take more flowers for flower arrangement." "Now it's cooler and the flowers can stay for a few more days.
Xu Ning suddenly thought of what he saw a few days ago and said: "Mom, I think that if I have money at home in the future, I will install a phone, if there is a shortage of goods, call Boss Chen directly and tell me that the goods will be delivered, and I will save a trip." ”
As long as there is a phone at home and someone else's number, the two of them can talk when they call, which makes Xu Ning feel very strange, which is better than them using spiritual power to talk to people.
Li Xiumei's eyelids jumped, and she was so frightened that she immediately vetoed: "Don't think about it so much, how much does it cost to install a phone! The phone bill is very expensive every month, I would rather run one more trip, and it doesn't take much time, and besides, there is a tricycle at home, which is much more convenient than before." "The main thing is that there is not much money at home now, and it is too expensive to install a telephone, so it is not that poor people like them can afford it.
"It's okay, I'll mention it casually, hehe......"
Xu Ning didn't expect her mother's opposition to be so fierce, she saw that it was very convenient for someone else's home to install one, so Xu Ning wanted to install it for herself, so that her mother could reduce the burden, but with the current situation of her own family, she must not be able to install it. Even if she has the ability to pretend, her mother is reluctant to pretend.
In the afternoon, Xu Ning accompanied Li Xiumei to pull the goods again. The next five-day class was going on, and Xu Ning was afraid that her mother would be too busy to visit the store and buy goods by herself, so she asked Shi to stay and watch the store. And there are not many goods in the store, this time I have to take some goods, my mother doesn't have to get old to buy goods, and it is very tiring to run around.
"You're here! A lot of tweed came from the base just in the morning. As soon as Chen Chen saw them coming, he hurriedly greeted them, and asked people to bring the snacks in the store to Xu Ning to eat.
"Hello Uncle Chen, thank you!" Xu Ning shouted obediently as soon as he arrived.
Fortunately, you showed my sister-in-law's house last time, and my sister-in-law said yesterday that she was much better, and praised you for your good skills. "People are small but very powerful, and he really didn't see the wrong person.
"Hehe, it's normal, by the way, Uncle Chen, if anyone needs help in this area in the future, they can come to me, as long as they don't dislike me for being young and unreliable. ”
Xu Ning decided, the family was too poor, and Aunt Xi'er was right before, if she had money to make money, she could share the burden of supporting the family for her mother.
"Okay, uncle promises you. "Boss Chen understood what Xu Ning meant, and said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and this child has the ability and filial piety, which is very rare.
After the three of them finished speaking, they went to pick up the goods.
