Uncle said: "Ruoyu, you see that your parents died early, but in fact, there was an accident at the time of the part-time job, and there was not much compensation, and it was spent a few years earlier." Then a family like ours really can't afford to send you to high school or college. We don't have the skills. But it can't delay you. In fact, it is useless to study now, college students do not earn as much as workers, and many unemployed people cannot find jobs. Or learn a technology, compare insurance. We're all for your good. There are quite a few people in the town who work in a factory in Xiangcheng. I heard that it was opened by a fellow villager in our county. You can go with them next month. I heard that there are three or four thousand a month. When the time comes, remember to send it home, don't use it indiscriminately! We have it all for you. ”

Liu Ruoyu was silent.

Uncle and aunt exchanged glances, and the aunt said: "You child, you just don't miss family affection at all, and you don't usually make love to us." Am I not like your mother? You were raised by us! Will it hurt you? This opportunity was missed, and there will be no more! Gotta go, do a good job there. Earn a future. ”

Liu Ruoyu's face was already red: "But I'm only fifteen years old!" ”

The uncle said, "That's okay, it's because you're worried about this." When the time comes, it's okay to say that you are older, they are all acquaintances, and you can get by. It's that the money may be a few hundred dollars less than others. That's not bad, either. We raised you so big, you should also make money to repay us! The most important thing for a person is to remember to be grateful, if he is not grateful, he is a rich wolf, tiger and leopard, and has no conscience! ”

"Just go!" Liu Ruoyu put down the cup with a "bang", got up and walked into his room, and slammed the door.

Uncle and aunt looked at it, scolded and said a few words, and ignored it.

A few days later, Liu Ruoyu took a backpack and left with several young people in the town. When he left, his uncle didn't know that he had gone, and his aunt was playing cards at the neighbor's house. Liu Ruoyu went to say hello to her, and she smiled happily at the card table: "Oh, our family Ruoyu is also going out to earn money, have a good trip." "The man didn't get up.

The mothers-in-law and mothers next to them were also laughing. Liu Ruoyu felt that they looked at their eyes and smirked, but they were all full of pity and sarcasm, as if to say: Such a big child is also sent out to work. The heart is ruthless, and the child is pitiful.

Liu Ruoyu turned his head and left.

His junior high school graduation examination results entered the top 20 in the county and the first in the town.

At first, Liu Ruoyu was looking forward to a new life in the factory. In any case, he left the village and the cold house. And you can earn your own money and read a lot of books. The trapped teenagers are a little anxious to grow up. He is no exception.

But a few days later, the freshness brought to him by the extremely extensive factory workshop disappeared. He realized that the environment in which he lived was no different from before. A remote urban-rural area, living in a township. In addition to the workers, there are villagers. He originally longed for Xiangcheng, the capital of Hunan Province, and heard that there are very good schools, hospitals, and many celebrities, but Chu is talented and has been yearning for a long time.

So after paying his first month's salary, he first bought himself a mobile phone, and then took the bus to the city, and went shopping all day before returning. Even if he walked around alone and didn't say a word to anyone, the swarthy country boy was very happy.

The first month's money to my uncle and aunt was less than the cost of the mobile phone. They were not very happy on the phone, Liu Ruoyu didn't say a few words, so he excused himself to go to work and hung up the phone.

He doesn't plan to pay his full salary next month, as they hoped. The money is only going to get less. He counted the living expenses he had spent on them over the years. He planned to pay them again when he had enough.

He was finally free.

But the boy gradually realized that life is like climbing a mountain. You have climbed to the top with great effort, carried the darkness, and carried the wind and rain. But you see that there is another mountain waiting for you.

You'll never get to the level.

At first, he didn't realize how different he was from the adult workers. Occasionally, there will be a few workers in the factory who look very small, and everyone will not be nosy. On the first day he walked into the dormitory, the three of them were stunned when they saw him. Maybe it's not just his age, but also the extremely ill-fitting middle-aged T-shirt worn by his uncle, and the woven bag in his hand. Xu Jiayuan smiled and said, "Which little doll ran out of the mountain, did it go wrong?" ”

The two people next to him laughed, Liu Ruoyu has never been an argumentative and flexible person, he just silently put the woven bag on the side of the bed, his face was red.

may be the first confrontation that established an unfair position between him and his roommate, especially between him and Xu Jiayuan.

Gradually, everyone found out that this young man didn't talk much, and he didn't know how to defend himself, so he just did things silently: cleaning the dormitory, picking up couriers for everyone, and letting him help run errands without saying a word. This kind of obedience makes Xu Jiayuan proud; But there is still a feeling that this kid may not really be tame. Besides, Liu Ruoyu is only a big person, what's wrong with adults calling children around? Isn't that a matter of course?

Just like inertia, everyone also enjoys the feeling of superiority, and their attitude towards Liu Ruoyu is becoming more and more casual and bad.

"Hey, go wash my clothes for me."

"Go buy me a pack of cigarettes."

"I have something to do tomorrow, go and take my shift."

"It's only ten o'clock in the trough, what book do you open the curtain to read, don't sleep, it's closed!"

"Why did you come out to work before you were eighteen years old? I don't think my family treats you very much, or maybe your kid did something, didn't study well, and was sent to work? Most of them are. It's just that what can a redneck cause trouble? What can you cause trouble? Well? ”

……

Liu Ruoyu didn't think about refusing. But once something starts, everyone seems to be addicted, and he is not allowed to refuse. There are three of them, all of whom are taller than others and have deep seniority in the factory. They know a lot and have a lot of friends. When he said something he didn't want to do, they told him with their eyes, with sneers, and even with body language, that he was not worthy of refusal.

"Be obedient, you're fine anyway, why don't you help?"

"The one from the township is stupid, you are not yet an adult, except for us, who cares about you?"

Xu Jiayuan was the most ruthless one, looked at him, and said, "Go." I really have to wait for Lao Tzu to expose you as a child laborer and be kicked out of the factory. A little self-aware, okay? ”

Sometimes it's hands-on.

Xu Jiayuan sometimes moved his hands and feet, patted him on the head, pushed him, and kicked him.
