"Mom, I'm almost fine, you better let me help! I can't sleep anyway. "No matter what Zhao Chen said, he is also the only man in the family, how can he watch his mother tired.

Wang Ya glanced at Zhao Chen carefully, and didn't speak again, which was regarded as acquiescing to Zhao Chen's help.

In this poor home, the natural stove is still the original, and Zhao Chen skillfully adds firewood to maintain the temperature with his fusion memory.

The summer temperature in Xiangjiang is very high, and you will sweat when you move it casually, let alone in front of the stove, and the temperature will rise even more. Fortunately, this body may be used to farm work, although the hot sweat is constantly flowing, but it is not too uncomfortable.

In the work, Zhao Chen did all the heavy work in order to take care of his mother with inconvenient legs. Wang Ya didn't object, she seemed to be used to it, because Zhao Chen did this before.

It didn't take long for Zhao Chen to put the old hen in the pot in a basin and put it on a simple table, which was where they usually ate.

When eating, Zhao Chen always clips the fattest part of the old hen to his mother, but he was pushed off by his mother, in her opinion, this old hen is specially used for her son's body.

shirked it several times, and Zhao Chen had no choice, so he had to decide in his heart that he wanted to make money as much as possible, so that he could provide his mother with a worry-free life.

"Chen'er, when the restaurant owner sent you here yesterday, he had already settled the wages of these days!"

When Wang Ya said this, she sighed in her heart, this world is really hot and cold, and her son is obviously like this because of him; But the restaurant owner was good, when he saw that he had a serious head injury, not only did he not sympathize with him, but instead made a move to settle the salary and drive people away, which was too chilling!

"Chen'er, you take it well, this money is just enough to pay for your tuition for next semester! Aim for a good grade. ”

Looking at the Hong Kong dollar that Wang Ya took out from his pocket, Zhao Chen was overjoyed, what he lacked was the money to buy tools!

Zhao Chen took the money, and when he got it in his hand, he was suddenly shocked, it stands to reason that with his temporary worker's salary, he will not have so much, after all, he knows very well how long he has only been working, not even half a month, with the stingy personality of the restaurant owner, it is impossible to give so much, and he will definitely not give the so-called medical expenses and nutrition expenses.

He suddenly felt heavy in his heart, looking at his mother's tired and aging face, his heart was very moved, he knew in his heart that the extra money must have been put in by her, just to not let himself worry, go to the restaurant owner to theorize, afraid that he would suffer a loss.

"Mom, I know, don't worry, I will definitely work hard." Zhao Chen solemnly accepted the money, and his slightly childish face was covered with a rare look of perseverance.

Wang Ya didn't speak, but put a chicken leg in his bowl, and everything was silent.

After eating this warm and unusually warm breakfast, Zhao Chen immediately washed the dishes and chopsticks, during which it was naturally accompanied by his mother's complaints, complaining that this kind of thing should be done by her.

"Mom, I want to go out!"

Wang Ya was shocked, and subconsciously said: "Chen'er, your injury is not healed yet, don't go out, rest at home for a few more days." ”

"It's okay, my injuries are almost healed, just go out and come back in a while!"

"That'...... Well, be careful on the road. ”

"I see!"

Zhao Chen went out and turned his head to look at his home, which was a dilapidated two-story bungalow, his hands were clenched, as the only man in the family, a layer called a sense of responsibility prompted him to work hard.

After reading half of the salary, Zhao Chen turned around and left, he still had to buy tools for painting.

Now Tseung Kwan O is a fishing village, very poor, not even a few shops, these shops are basically selling some food, farm tools or fishing gear, at most there are only some paper and pen for students, it is impossible to buy painting tools. If you want to buy painting tools, you have to go to a prosperous area.

Tseung Kwan O belongs to Sai Kung District, but unfortunately the current Sai Kung District has not yet opened, let alone prosperous, and Zhao Chen does not know where in Sai Kung District there are shops specializing in selling painting tools.

He had no choice, so he could only go to the most prosperous places in the entire Xiangjiang; After thinking about it, in order to save costs, he had to take a bus to Mong Kok, which is known as a good price and a good price!

Mong Kok is a bit far from Tseung Kwan O, and it took a few bus changes along the way before finally arriving.

Perhaps the price of ordinary goods in any part of Xiangjiang is not much worse. It's a pity that painting tools are still scarce items in Xiangjiang, and some of them are also imported items, so the price difference in these places fluctuates greatly, and Mong Kok is far away, but the price is probably the fairest.

As soon as he arrived in Mong Kok, Zhao Chen felt a little out of place with his surroundings, because compared with the brightly dressed passers-by around him, his clothes were too old-fashioned, not much better than beggars. But there is no way, after all, he is a child of a poor family.

At this time, Mong Kok may not be as prosperous as in later generations, but in fact, it is not too much different, at least compared with Tseung Kwan O, the gap is too big, and there is no comparison.

Zhao Chen didn't care about what he was wearing, he naturally wouldn't feel inferior because of his clothes, he believed that he would be able to improve his life soon with his own efforts.

It's just that he walked a few streets when he first arrived in Mong Kok, but he didn't see that kind of large stationery store, in this case, he had only one way, and that was to ask for directions.

"Hello, is there a big stationery store nearby?" A girl who was fashionable in this era twisted her waist and just passed in front of Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen hurriedly asked, her attitude was very sincere, although in his eyes from later generations, this fashionable girl's dress was very old-fashioned.

It's a pity that the girl just glanced at Zhao Chen, especially when she saw Zhao Chen's clothes with several patches, her face showed a look of disdain that could not be concealed, as if she felt that talking to him was an insult, she still walked forward without even saying a word.

The girl's attitude made Zhao Chen angry, he clenched his fists tightly, trying his best to endure the boiling anger in his patience, it is really a dog's eye to look down on people, I am from the countryside, even if there is a gap between the rich and the poor, everyone is not the same person.

Zhao Chen took a deep breath and cleared his mind again. Suddenly, a clear voice like a lark sounded behind him: "Are you talking about a large stationery store?" If yes, I just know one! ”

For Zhao Chen, these words were like a long drought and a rainy day, so he quickly turned his head, and he was immediately stunned at this look.

"What a beautiful billet!"

Behind her stood a beautiful girl about twelve or thirteen years old, although she was dressed very ordinarily, she could not hide the shock of her natural beauty.

The eyebrows on the face of a little baby fat are slender and picturesque, and the eyes are shining like stars; There is a small mouth under the bridge of the nose, the corners of the mouth are slightly curved upward, and the beautiful face is a little sad. The whole face is delicate and picturesque, beautiful and refined, without the slightest smell of fireworks in the world.

Zhao Chen felt that God seemed to be joking with him this time, if Zhao Chen was not mistaken, this girl was likely to be Zhou Huimin, the head of the jade girl in the future, which can be seen from her appearance. Although her current appearance is relatively immature due to her age, she has a very similar appearance.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Huimin only felt that the boy in front of him was so strange, and his beautiful brows couldn't help but wrinkle cutely, didn't he know that it was very impolite to stare at others like this!

"Nothing, you really know where the big stationery store is?" Zhao Chen reacted immediately, and he also knew that his actions just now were very abrupt.

"yes, are you going there? I'm just stopping by and can take you there! Zhou Huimin had a bright smile on her face, and she didn't discriminate against Zhao Chen like the girl just now. In Zhao Chen's words, there is an unusually sharp contrast between the two.

"Then I'm sorry for you!"

"You're welcome!"

The two walked side by side on the road, and Zhou Huimin asked with a little curiosity, "You don't look like you're from Mong Kok?" ”

"Yes, my home is in Tseung Kwan O, Sai Kung District, and the scenery there is very good!" Seeing Zhou Huimin asking, he naturally answered truthfully, in his opinion, there is nothing to be ashamed of, the current Tseung Kwan Ao is indeed backward, but it will be different in a few years.

"Tseung Kwan O, I've heard of it, but I haven't been there. But it's strange, why are you looking for a large stationery store, you should also have school supplies in Tseung Kwan O! Zhou Huimin's eyes lit up, and she expressed the doubts in her heart.

"I'm here to buy painting tools!" Zhao Chen naturally didn't hide it, this was normal for him.

Zhou Huimin's words made her stunned for a moment, and then she took it for granted and asked, "You should be helping your elders or friends buy painting tools, right?" ”

Zhao Chen showed a helpless smile on his face, it seems that his age is a hard injury, if he is a middle-aged uncle, Zhou Huimin will definitely not ask this.

"No, I bought it for myself, I use it for comics!"
