Chapter 151: Never Give Up
"It's good if you know, I'll help you with your sister-in-law, you can prepare with peace of mind, if my mother comes, I'll fight with her! I don't believe it, your life will be ruined by her! The eldest brother gritted his teeth and said: "At the beginning, for the sake of Zhijun, my education was buried, and finally you can have a future, and you can't give up!" β
The eldest brother just went to elementary school and got very good grades, ranking in the top three in the school, his original dream was to be a pilot, but because the family really couldn't afford two, the second brother cursed and swore that he would be able to be admitted to school, and his mother could only cry and beg the eldest brother to come down, but the second brother didn't study bullshit, and he went to junior high school and counted back, so he still wanted to reread, and finally the school teacher told his mother, no need to go on, it was not the material for learning at all, and the second brother was unwilling to come down.
Later, I saw that Du Cheng was going to be a soldier, and the second brother was going to follow.
Mom asked someone to spend money to send him there, who knew that he ran back as a deserter because he was too hard for a few days, and it took a lot of money to settle this matter, and since then the second brother has been the emperor at home, and my eldest brother and I have always been servants.
I sneered and said, "We are stupid enough, if we hadn't listened to my mother so much and resisted, my mother wouldn't have gotten used to squeezing us." She has ruined her eldest brother's life, and now she wants to ruin me again. β
The eldest brother frowned and didn't speak, since he gave up being the pillar of the family, he thought more about his own small family, and the conflict with his mother gradually escalated.
The sister-in-law sighed: "Reasoning, I shouldn't have said this, our family is dragged down by the second family, and there will never be a good one." β
The eldest brother thought for a while and said, "Forget it, I'll talk about this later, let Qiao'er prepare well for tomorrow's exam." β
The two of them helped me dry the books by the stove, and the handwriting in them had already been soaked in a large area, and I didn't know some of the words, but fortunately, I had already read them and only browsed them one last time, so to reassure them, I said I knew them all.
That night, my eldest brother let me eat and go to bed early, and the two of them didn't watch TV, so they also went to bed early.
I closed my eyes and thought about what happened today, no matter what, I have to do well in the exam, I must pass the exam!
The next day, when I got up, I felt that my scalp was still aching, and since I came to the city, my mother has used all her strength to beat me every time, as if she was facing an enemy, and she hated to kill me directly.
It can be seen how much she hates me in her heart. I've long lost hope for her, but it's still chilling to think about her attitude.
I didn't dare to comb my hair too hard, so I just pulled it twice casually and tied it up.
After washing, I saw my sister-in-law coming over: "Wash your hands and eat!" β
She got up early and went downstairs to buy me fritters and two boiled eggs, and she smiled and said, "I heard that you can get 100 points for eating this." β
I smiled and said, "I have to take several subjects, and a hundred of them add up, which is too little." β
"Look at my confusion, then I'll boil you a few more eggs!" She hurried inside.
I hurriedly grabbed her sleeve: "Forget it, sister-in-law, I'm kidding, I can't eat both, if I cook too much, won't I eat a bad stomach?" β
The eldest brother came over at this time and kept looking me in the eyes: "What's the matter?" You've been nervous all night, I'm worried that your eyes are swollen, and it seems to be okay. β
"I'm fine, you can go to work." I laughed and pushed his arm.
"No, I'm on leave. I'm going to take the exam with you today. "Big brother sat across from me and started eating.
My eyes moistened, and I knew that my eldest brother was worried that my mother would continue to cause trouble, so he had to come.
"Brother, you will delay making money like this."
"That's right, there are such important things at home, making money is nothing." The eldest brother smiled: "Besides, isn't your sister-in-law quite able to make money, it's okay if you earn less, let her support me when the time comes." β
The sister-in-law smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you take a good look at Qiao'er, I will support you." β
I also laughed, my eldest brother is not that kind of person, how can he let a woman raise him, I see that they are so good to me, and my heart is warm.
The sister-in-law walked to the back room and took out a pencil case: "I went shopping with your eldest brother during the Chinese New Year, and he bought it for you and wanted to give it to you when you took the exam." β
The pencil case was pink with a butterfly on it, the most fashionable double-layered design of the time, and when I opened it, it was full of sharpened pencils, erasers, rulers, two pens, and even carbon pens, which were expensive at the time.
"Actually, I think the pencil case is a little too naΓ―ve, but he thinks the style is pretty good, can you take a look?" She laughed.
I couldn't help but choke up a little: "Thank you, big brother and sister-in-law!" I've never used such a good pencil case. β
The eldest brother smiled and said, "Don't cry, take the exam well, by the way, the admission ticket is in your hand." β
"Yes, yes." Fortunately, I have always kept the admission ticket and money close to me, otherwise I would have burned it directly in the book.
My eldest brother and I went to the exam room together after dinner, because the distance was not far, so we walked there, and there were already bustling crowds outside, and there were also those who drove their own children to take the exam.
At that time, the technical secondary school was genuine, with high scores, and it was difficult to get in, but once you were admitted, you could be assigned a job, so many students regarded the secondary school examination as a good way out. In addition, because agricultural schools do not charge tuition, they give some hope to children from poor families, and more people come to take the exam.
The eldest brother saw that these people were all reading books over there, ready to use the last minute to review, and asked me how I was.
"Would you like me to borrow their books?"
"I don't have to look at it." I smiled at my eldest brother: "Don't worry. β
At this time, someone behind me patted me on the shoulder, and it turned out that Gao Yue came with Yaya.
Yaya changed into a red cotton jacket, which was of good quality at first glance, lining her fair skin, and looked beautiful.
Gao Yue said with a smile; "Qiao'er, you're here early!"
"yes, you came early, too."
Yaya was obviously a little surprised when she saw me: "You really came to the exam!" β
I nodded and smiled and said, "Yes, although you specifically sued my mother and my second sister-in-law, I still make my own decisions, and no one can stop me from coming to take the exam." β
Although I can't beat you up in front of Gao Yue, I can't let you block me for nothing.
Gao Yue was stunned: "Qiao'er, what are you talking about?" β
The eldest brother said: "Yesterday, my mother came to make trouble, burned Qiao'er's books, and beat her, almost not letting her come to the exam." β
The girl hurriedly said: "Look at what you said, it seems that I made it on purpose, who knows what kind of people they are!" β
Gao Yue was also flustered, and hurriedly apologized to me.
I smiled and shook my head: "It's okay, didn't I come?" β
"Yaya! You've gone too far, hurry up and say I'm sorry! Gao Yue took her daughter's arm.
She said aggrievedly: "That's what I said, how did I know that their family would treat Qiaozhen like this?" β
"It's not a big deal, but it's not a small matter, Yaya, I hope you can get in, and you don't have to worry about my affairs. Every family has a way of doing it, don't you say? "What kind of person my mother is, Yaya will not know that the teacher and principal who went to junior high school went to my house in person, hoping that I could continue to take the high school entrance examination, but my mother kicked me out.
Yaya is in the same class as me, and she knows very well that her mother doesn't want me to take the exam, so this time she deliberately cheated me.
Gao Yue was angry in her heart, but seeing that the exam was coming, she couldn't talk deeply about her daughter, so she could only apologize to me.
"You forgive her, I'll go back and let her pay for it!"
"We have a good relationship, and I'm willing to have a relationship with you, but forget about your daughter, I don't want to see her. It's almost time for the exam, and I'm leaving. I glared at Yaya and left with my eldest brother.
The girl over there said: "What are you pretending, the poor in the family are going to die, and they still want to go to secondary school, it's really a dream!" β
"Shut up, read well, and wait until the exam is over!" Gao Yue took out the textbook and gave it to Yaya.
Yaya will not be affected by a poor man like me, and she will soon talk and laugh with Gao Yue.
"How can this be reasonable, her daughter can still laugh when she does such a thing!" The eldest brother was angry.
