30. Withdrawal
Wang Yuandao: "Is there a dormitory?" Zhao Xiaoling's family is not from this town, she can only live in a collective dormitory. β
"Yes! Liu Lin, take your apprentice to the dormitory to have a look. Director Li commanded.
The dormitory, in a remote corner behind the cafeteria, is a row of small bungalows, one for six people, and there happens to be an empty seat at the door of this one.
Wang Yuan said that he would help Zhao Xiaoling bring the covers and daily necessities over at one time, and it would be convenient for him to drive anyway.
Zhao Xiaoling didn't shirk either, she accepted it calmly when people sincerely helped, and she would repay it when she had the opportunity in the future.
When she arrived at school, her classmates were in class, Zhao Xiaoling moved her things to the police car, she asked Wang Yuan to wait for her, she had to go to the teacher to talk.
Fortunately, Teacher Zhang didn't have a class, she was in the office.
Walking into the office, before Zhao Xiaoling could speak, Mr. Zhang hated iron and steel: "Zhao Xiaoling, you are finally here?" I thought you'd never come again? β
"Teacher Zhang, I'm sorry, I had something at home some time ago, and I didn't have time to tell you that I came to drop out ......of school today."
Teacher Zhang scolded excitedly, "I know, you want to drop out of school to find a job and go to business, do you think it's so easy to find a job?" Is it as simple as doing business and making money? Let me tell you, Zhao Xiaoling, real life is not as simple as you think, do you know how cruel reality is? It's not just that you can have whatever you want with your passion...... Now what a great opportunity, the college entrance examination has been resumed, everyone has an equal opportunity to fight for their own chance to go to college, and they can all have the opportunity to pursue their own happiness. If your academic performance is good, you can fight for a good future by going to school. Change your own destiny. β
Teacher Zhang said a lot in a frustrated breath, gritting his teeth at Zhao Xiaoling's naΓ―ve decision and indisputability, so that Zhao Xiaoling had no chance to defend at all, and finally when Teacher Zhang paused to breathe, Zhao Xiaoling said softly: "Teacher Zhang, I have found a job."
"What? Have you found a job? What works? β
"Working in a steel mill."
"Temporary?"
"No, regular employees!"
"A full-time employee of a steel plant?" Teacher Zhang couldn't believe that Zhao Xiaoling, a poor student from the mountainous area, could find such a good job?
The steel mill is the unit with the highest salary and the best benefits in Nanxian County, which is higher than Mr. Zhang's income, and it is a unit that many people want to go to.
"Zhao Xiaoling, is it really fake? Have you found a job? go
Working in a steel mill? β
"Yes, I just went to the steel mill this morning, that is, I just went to the steel mill to report, went through the entry procedures, and now I come to the school to talk to you, go through the withdrawal procedures, move my bed, I go to work in the steel plant, and I will live in the staff dormitory of the steel plant in the future."
Only the regular employees of the steel plant can go to live in the staff dormitory of the factory, which Ms. Zhang knows, but despite this, she is still skeptical.
"Who's doing you this big favor?" Teacher Zhang still thinks this matter is a little incredible, she is afraid that Zhao Xiaoling is young and ignorant and has been deceived, is there such a good thing in this world?
Zhao Xiaoling knew that Teacher Zhang really cared about and worried about herself, so she could only explain things to her clearly.
"It's a favor from a friend of mine, Mr. Zhang has something I want to tell you, I am an orphan, I don't have any relatives in this world, my current grandmother is not my real grandmother, I was adopted by her, my real parents and relatives died in the earthquake, and now something has happened between my grandmother and her biological son, so that the relationship between them has deteriorated, so we can't stay in Zhaojiagou, I can only take my grandmother out of Zhaojiagou, this friend sympathizes with my situation, I happened to be able to talk to the government, and the government also took care of this orphan, so I was lucky to have this job opportunity. β
For a long time, the teachers and classmates in the school only knew that Zhao Xiaoling's parents had passed away, and she and her grandmother depended on each other, but they didn't know that her grandmother was not close, and Zhao Xiaoling did not explain, in her mind, her grandmother was her relative, and there was no difference between her grandmother and her grandmother.
Now, in order to explain the authenticity and reliability of her finding a job, she had to tell the teacher about it.
Teacher Zhang was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
Zhao Xiaoling's background is pitiful enough, and now she knows that she is even more pitiful than she imagined, not only does she have no parents, but even her grandmother, aunt, and uncle are not relatives. She was just an adopted orphan.
"Zhao Xiaoling, in this way, your grandparents are really amazing, you are not her own granddaughter, Zhao Jiagou is in such a bad condition, how difficult it is for her to be able to provide you to high school! I am afraid that only she can understand the difficulties and sadness of it. β
"Yes, I know, my grandmother has suffered a lot for me in her life, and this time she is in danger, do you know how scared I am? Grandma is my only relative in this world, I can't be selfish and let her live a hard life for me, she raised me so big, for me to go to high school, she has done her best, give everything she has, she is old, her physical condition is not good, it is time for me to repay her. β
Teacher Zhang also wants to persuade Zhao Xiaoling to insist on going to school! After all, with her grades, there is no problem in taking the university entrance examination, and after going to college, the future is even brighter.
But this means that her grandmother will continue to suffer and continue to make sacrifices.
And her current situation is indeed very worrying, can she still hold on until her granddaughter graduates from college?
If she can't persevere, Zhao Xiaoling will feel guilty for the rest of her life.
Kindness should be reciprocated, and good people should be rewarded, instead of sacrificing themselves until the last moment.
"Zhao Xiaoling, I didn't misunderstand you, you are good, for the sake of grandma, you made such a decision. As a teacher, I feel sorry for you, but you are right to do so. β
"I am very unfortunate that my parents passed away early, but I am very lucky that I was able to meet people like my grandparents who love me, as well as good teachers who understand me and care about me like Mr. Zhang, and friends who help me find a job, I will work hard, continue to study hard, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I can still be admitted to university. I have to live well to be worthy of your love, care and help for me. β
"Yes, you bring your books, continue to read books when you have time, and when you have a chance in the future, you can also take the university entrance examination, you are admitted to the university during your work, and the cost of your college admission is all paid for by the unit. This will ease the burden on your home. β
