Chapter 4: Returning Home

With her memory, Nancy walked out of the school gate of Sixian No. 1 Middle School and walked in the direction of home. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

When she left the school, the elderly doorman Lao Zhang stared at her for a long time.

Nancy knew that this old Zhang knew her, and the original Nancy transferred this pain to people who were inferior to her because of her low self-esteem and the ridicule of other students, such as the school gatekeeper who had no culture.

Every time Nancy saw him before, her head was raised high, she looked arrogant, and she always seemed impatient when she entered the school gate to register at an irregular time, as if it was a waste of time to stay around someone like him at the bottom of society for a while, and she always habitually muttered, "What a trouble!" Do you know how much study time I wasted when I registered? ”

After coming and going, Lao Zhang also got to know Nancy, who was dressed plainly and had a bad temper. Listening to the words of the students in the school after school, I slowly learned that this Nancy is not to be seen by everyone.

Lao Li's ridicule of Nancy is because she knows what this little girl thinks in her heart, and when others bully her, she wants to take this anger out on herself, an uneducated old man.

Lao Li has lived for most of his life, what kind of person has he never seen, he only thinks that such a little girl is really sad.

Today, I saw her walking wet all over, her hair was messy and had some mud, the corners of her skirt were torn and the edges of the threads were torn, and the occasional water slid down her calves to her heels, leaving dirty marks, and even the eyes that she always wore were lost, and I guessed that she was probably bullied by other students.

With such an embarrassed appearance, it is estimated that she will not dare to see people on the street after a while, right?

But today she looks a little different, I used to see her from a distance with her head down, her steps flying, for fear that other people's eyes would stay on her for a second, but today she is looking straight ahead, and she walks forward with a big fall.

is obviously so embarrassed, the steps taken are still not hurried, and the temperament exuded by his body is like the rich daughter of the upper class society that Lao Li went to the big city when he was young and saw it.

He's so old, and he's dazzled to feel this way. Lao Li stopped looking at Nancy, lowered his head and flipped through the newspaper in his hand, and took another sip of tea from his teacup.

"Hello Grandpa Li."

The sudden familiar voice said unfamiliar words, which made Lao Li almost squirt out a mouthful of tea.

Nancy didn't notice Lao Li's gaffe, smiled politely at him after he raised his head, and walked straight out of the school gate without stopping.

The whole action was smooth, not pretentious at all, Lao Li looked at Nancy's back in a daze, is the sun coming out in the west today?

Nancy didn't know that her polite demeanor would cause such a big reaction in Lao Li's heart, in her previous life in the United States, she was like this to the domestic servants and drivers at home.

Dad has taught her that since she was a child, for the politeness shown by a person who is lower than her own status and the politeness shown by someone who is higher than her own status, the former can better improve a person's upbringing.

Walking out of the street, some passers-by looked at her intently, as if it was strange how a girl on the street could look so embarrassed.

Nancy ignored these gazes, and even though it was the end of September, the sun was still a little hot, and the sun had dried her whole body in the moment she walked like this.

She walked into a trash can on the street and threw the material on her body into it, without the shawl of the fancy fabric, which made her look much more refreshed and less embarrassed.

After rounding a few streets and passing through a few alleys, Nancy finally saw her home. Compared to the bustling plot of land near the school, which is developing, Nancy's family is a little lonely and backward.

Most of the houses in this area are bungalows, and only a few wealthy people have built high-rise buildings. Several neighbor aunts who were washing vegetables at the door saw Nancy coming over and said hello.

"Sissi, why did you come back so early today?" Seeing Nancy's messy hair and the thread at the bottom of her skirt, she asked, "Why is her hair so messy and her skirt is torn?" Did you get bullied again at school? ”

"Hey, what a group of kids in middle school, why do you always bully us Sissi." Another aunt said.

"If you are bullied again, your aunts will go to school to support you, your mother is too busy every day, and the aunts will help you."

The aunts chattered that in the old days Nancy didn't like such scenes, and even if the aunts were all for her good, she thought it was talking about her, and then ran into the house at a trot ignoring anyone.

"Thank you, aunts, I'm fine, I wasn't bullied, I accidentally fell into the pothole." Nancy made a gentleman's courtesy and responded to everyone with a smile.

Because she inherited the memories of the original Nancy, Nancy found it very interesting to jump out of her mouth some words with a very Chinese charm. She couldn't help but laugh again.

When Nancy entered her house, several middle-aged women began to babble again.

"Sissi is sensible today."

"yes, people feel a lot more lively."

"I hope it's not sensible for a while, otherwise her mother should be so pleased."

When Nancy opened the door and entered the house, there was no one in the house. According to her memory, her mother would not be able to return home until after six o'clock, and her younger brother Nan Zeyang, who was in his third year of junior high school, was boarded in a remote city key middle school, and was taken care of by his aunt who lived there.

It was only about two o'clock in the afternoon, and she was idle, and she was not in a hurry to change her clothes, and began to look at the little bungalow.

Although it is a three-bedroom, a living room, a bathroom and a kitchen, the area is not large, and there is not much spare space in the bedroom, with a bed, a desk and a wardrobe.

There is no bathtub in the bathroom, only a shower head, because the area is too small, it is estimated that there is a bathtub that cannot be placed.

The kitchen is also small and pitiful, after putting the tableware and cooking utensils, there is no place to eat, so I can only move to the living room that is not much bigger but not much furniture seems empty to eat.

The whole house has a refrigerator in the living room, a color TV, an electric kettle, a rice cooker in the kitchen, and a desk lamp in her and her brother's room.

The simplest decoration, the ground tiles have not been done, or the cement floor, only the wall has a simple white paint. Fortunately, Nancy's mother is diligent in cleaning and tidying up. The whole home looks very clean and tidy.

Maybe it's because there is no man in the family that they end up so poor, right?

Nancy didn't think much of it and went to her bedroom, intending to change her clothes. I opened the wardrobe and flipped through it a few times, but the clothes were not very eye-catching, and when I flipped it, I saw the school uniform thrown in the corner.

When I was a student, the spring and summer school uniforms were short-sleeved and long pants, the color of the top was single, the color of the pants was pure black, and the sides were embedded with strips of the same color as the clothes, extending from the waistband to the hem of the pants.

Except for raising the national flag on Monday, the original Nancy basically didn't wear a school uniform, because in everyone's eyes, she usually wore such an ugly school uniform if she didn't have beautiful clothes.

Although Nancy's own clothes don't look good, she doesn't want to be told that she is poor and has no clothes to wear.

Nancy is different now, she thinks Nancy's clothes are a little tacky, and they are not as simple and atmospheric as the school uniform.

Without even thinking about it, he took out the school uniform, took his underwear and underwear, and went to the bathroom to take off his clothes and take a shower.

There was a mirror in the bathroom, and Nancy was looking at her current self in the mirror.

This girl is not ugly, but her skin has never been maintained, and she looks a little dark and rough, and her foundation is okay, and she even feels that she will be more beautiful than her original self if she takes care of it.

The second is that the body is a little thin and a little malnourished, which is easy to solve with money.

Originally, the most beautiful thing about her was a pair of big eyes with long eyelashes and watery eyes, but she always wore a pair of black-framed glasses to cover herself, and her eyes were not confident, so she didn't release the beauty she should have.

There are also tacky clothes and a short temper, which made her earn the title of "ugly girl".

But the main reason is her inferiority, and the ugliness is not her appearance, but her soul.

Nancy poured the cheap shower gel into the palm of her hand, frowned, and pressed it on herself without hesitation.

The shampoo is also a messy brand she has never heard of, she is really not satisfied with everything here, the most important reason is the economy, she thinks that the economy of this place should be changed first.

In her previous life, when she was abroad, she never had to worry about money, but her father gave her a branch, and she tried to run it for a month and made a profit of five million. I didn't think it was challenging, so I didn't bother to do it.

This area is a bit backward, even if you open a company, because of the economic limitations of the blockade of the area, you can't make much profit, and she doesn't have the capital to open a company, 50,000 yuan is definitely not enough.

And she's a middle school student, and she can't linger outside of school for a long time, she takes over Nancy's identity, and she can't let her mother worry.

If you are a student, you can only earn money through part-time jobs on the Internet and holidays, and she won't do part-time jobs, it's not that she can't afford to suffer and dislike part-time jobs for fear of losing face, she never discriminates against any profession, but that money is too little for her.

For her, who graduated from Harvard University with a major in computer science, it is still easy to use the Internet to write websites and make programs to earn 20,000 or 30,000 yuan a month, but she still feels that it is too slow to make money in this way.

Twenty or thirty thousand is not enough to buy a few sets of high-quality clothes, in her previous life, she couldn't even afford to buy a piece of underwear she wore, but now she can't be so picky.

There is also a mother and a younger brother in this family and grandparents from the hometown, it was Nancy who gave her a second life, and she will take good care of them.

There is still a father who has been missing for several months and has not returned, and since God has given her a second chance, she must also find her father. Her mother in the U.S. doesn't know what's going on? You must be in a hurry to know that you are missing, right?

So she also had to prepare money to go to the United States to find her mother.

Thinking about it has been washed, Nancy sighed and stopped thinking about it, the top priority is to work hard to earn money, if you earn slowly, then take your time first, it's useless to be eager, then take it step by step.

After drying her hair and putting on her school uniform, Nancy went to her room to get all her pocket money and went to the vegetable market to buy groceries, which was the first thing she could do to repay Nancy's family.
