Chapter 15: Waiting for You to Come Back
When Montaigne got up in the morning, he went to the town to pick up some goods, and when he came back to the village, he saw several people gathered there talking about something, and these people did not pay attention to Montaigne passing by. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I've heard that this mine isn't that simple?" A villager said.
"What have you heard, tell me?" Another villager asked.

Hearing what the villagers said, Montaigne was so angry that he put down his burden and rushed forward and asked, "What are you guys talking about here?" Do you have a conscience, now that people are like that, you still say that. β
One of the villagers was unconvinced and stepped forward to reason with Montaigne, and without saying a few words, Montaigne, who had a fiery personality, picked up the flat pole behind him and threw it at the villager, and the villagers did not show weakness, and several people scuffled together.
A few minutes later, he was pulled away by a few villagers who passed by, and then he stopped, and tomorrow and those villagers were slightly injured, Montaigne picked up the flat pole that had been knocked down, picked up the goods and walked away, and at noon the aunt asked Montaigne to send some more food to the cuckoo's house, and Montaigne came to the cuckoo's house.
It was only after Cuckoo's repeated questioning that Montaigne told the reason for the fight, and Cuckoo asked those people what they said about his father, but Montaigne refused to say anything when he died. The cuckoo couldn't help it, so he didn't ask.
From this day on, as soon as the cuckoo walked in the village, she always felt that the villagers were looking at her with strange eyes, which made her feel very uncomfortable. Now in this village, it seems that only the cousin Montaigne's family is good to them.
More than half a month has passed, my father's injury has improved a lot, and I see that my second brother is about to start school, but there is not much money left in the family. Although my father's injuries were healing, my father began to refuse to take medicine in the past two days, because my father was distressed about the money for medicine.
The idea of going to school in Du Juan's heart has been completely dispelled, and she is also trying to comfort her parents that there will be many ways out if they don't go to school, and they can also make money, and after thinking of making money, Du Juan began to have an idea in her heart, she wants to make money, she wants to support this family, this family that she is willing to give everything.
On this day, Cuckoo came to her cousin Montaigne's house, she told Montaigne about this idea, Montaigne did not agree after hearing it, Cuckoo patiently told Montaigne her reasons, now the family only has a little income, how can this money not support such a family, plus the mother is weak, the little brother is also going to school. In the past, my father would earn some money by doing odd jobs every year, but now it is no longer possible, and now Du Juan must support the family.
Montaigne listened to the cuckoo's story, which he did not know in his heart, but he had a private message, which was also a secret, a secret that he had never told to a second person, and today he was going to tell this secret.
Montaigne watched as the cuckoo finally mustered up the courage to tell the secret that had been hidden in his heart for so many years.
"Cuckoo, don't, go somewhere else, I'll raise you, I'll raise this family." After speaking, the tall man lowered his head.
After listening to Montaigne's words, Du Juan was shocked, how could she not understand the meaning of Montaigne's words. This cousin, who has played with him since she was a child and has always taken good care of her, has this idea for her. Du Juan was silent for a while, she didn't complain about her cousin, she knew that her cousin Montaigne was a good person, but her cousin hadn't read anything, he probably didn't understand that close relatives like Xiang couldn't be together, but she also knew that her cousin's idea was not wrong, but they couldn't be together.
The cuckoo looked at Montaigne, who lowered his head, and said calmly: "Brother, I understand your thoughts, but you must know that I want to go out to work and make money because my father made it like this because he raised money for me to go to school, and I want to go out to make money because I want to contribute my strength to our family, do you understand?" Elder brother? β
In the past, Cuckoo called Montaigne Meng Ge or cousin, and these two "brothers" were the first time that Cuckoo called him that. Montaigne listened so warmly, so kindly. Tomorrow knows the cuckoo's personality very well, she is a very strong girl, Montaigne was finally moved by the cuckoo.
Since this day, Montaigne has used various methods to help Cuckoo find a way to work, and Montaigne has to do a good job in this first hurdle, he wants to help Cuckoo find a reliable and safe job. The day is finally in the news.
Tomorrow I came to Du Juan's house and called Du Juan out, and Du Juan knew that he must have found a job. Montaigne told Du Juan that one of his distant relatives' children worked in a restaurant in a city in Shandong Province and had heard that he could earn more than 1,000 yuan a month and take care of food and housing. Without waiting for Montaigne to finish speaking, Du Juan excitedly held Montaigne's hand and said, "Great, brother, you can earn more than 10,000 yuan this year, the family's debts can be repaid, and Dad's medicine expenses are enoughγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Looking at the cuckoo's happy appearance, although Montaigne was reluctant, he was also happy. Montaigne touched the cuckoo's head, pretended to be serious, and said, "Don't be too happy first, you can go if you want to, but promise me one condition?" β
Hearing the "condition", Du Juan's face immediately became embarrassed, she didn't dare to look directly at Montaigne's gaze, and lowered her head.
Seeing Du Juan's expression, Montaigne continued: "My condition is that you take the time to read more books while you are working, I will only give you one year, and you will continue to take the university entrance examination when you come back tomorrow, understand?" β
After listening to Montaigne's words, Cuckoo couldn't believe her ears, she raised her head to look at the man she had grown up with, and her heart was full of feelings, Cuckoo hugged Montaigne and buried her head in his arms and cried bitterly, Montaigne patted her head and said, "I'll wait for you to come back." β
That night, Cuckoo told his parents what he thought, and both his father and mother strongly objected, no matter what kind of pleading Cuckoo pleaded. That's when Montaigne "coincidentally" came. After coming in, Montaigne also helped Cuckoo plead with his aunt and uncle, and said that it was absolutely no problem for him to contact him, and also said that he wanted Cuckoo to continue to take the university entrance examination next year.
Du Juan also followed and said that she also wanted to continue to go to college, and the money she earned this year would not only make her family better, but also fulfill her desire to go to college.
Hearing this, the father and mother were finally shaken, because Cuckoo's college attendance has always been a piece of their hearts that they can't erase.
The next day, Montaigne brought news that the hotel where the relative was located was now in dire straits, and the boss had raised his salary, and that if he didn't go earlier, the opportunity might be gone. After discussing with his family, the cuckoo decided to leave tomorrow.
At night, the cuckoo was reluctant to leave his father's mother's house for a long time, and the daughter, who had never been by her parents' side, was about to leave them for a year, although her parents had also considered this issue some time ago, but it was because her daughter was going to college, and all she was worried about was full of joy. But this time, my daughter went out to make money for this family, how could she feel the same.
The father leaned back on the bed and kept silent, and the mother kept talking to the cuckoo to be careful when she went out, although the mother had never been far away. It was already the middle of the night, and my father looked at the time and told my mother to let the cuckoo rest early, and took out 500 yuan from under the pillow for my mother to hand over to the cuckoo.
Du Juan heard Montaigne say that the city fare from here to her job was more than 200 yuan, so he helped take out two hundred yuan and pushed it to his mother, and the mother and daughter pushed back and forth, and then the father on the bed spoke and said: "Take it, it's not easy for a girl to be outside, rest assured at home, wait for you to earn money, just come back in the mail." β
After listening to his father, Du Juan reluctantly took the Wu Bai yuan that his mother didn't know where to borrow.
The next morning Montaigne arrived early at the cuckoo's house, and the cuckoo had already been cleaned up, and perhaps she had not slept all night. She carried the three hundred dollars in her pocket, because she had quietly put them back under her mother's pillow.
The cuckoo took one last look at his father sitting on the bed, the father didn't say anything, the mother hugged the little brother, and led the second brother to send the cuckoo and Montaigne out, and when he couldn't see the cuckoo, the father pulled the quilt over his face and cried, he didn't dare to make a sound, because he was afraid that his daughter would hear it.
The mother and brothers sent the cuckoo and Montaigne to the entrance of the village, because Montaigne insisted on putting the cuckoo on the train. At this time, the cuckoo hoped that the bus that was often later would arrive more slowly, so that she could take it with his relatives for a while. But today's bus came surprisingly punctually, and less than five minutes after they arrived at the entrance of the village, the bus to the provincial capital had already come to them.
The mother had not cried, she knew that she would see her daughter in a year, and that crying now would only add to her worries. Cuckoo and Montaigne got into the car, and the mother kept looking at the back of the car in the distance, knowing that the car was gone, and she knew that this time it was a farewell to her daughter.
