A few days later, Qian Aishu told Daddy Qian that he wanted to work in a brick factory to earn some tuition.

"No, I can't do it, let alone you." Daddy Qian said.

"I'll go find Brother Dog tomorrow and ask him if I can do something." Qian Aishu does not give up, he knows that his tuition fees for the new semester have not yet been settled. Take advantage of this winter vacation to earn some money, which can reduce the burden on Daddy Qian.

"Don't go and make trouble for your dog, their factory is just starting, and they can't afford to raise idlers."

"No, I'll do it. I can move bricks, with little strength, I can move less at a time. Qian Aishu said.

Qian Aishu went to the brickyard to find Goudan and told Goudan what he wanted to work. Dogan said, you're too young to do it. I know you can't bear to see your dad working too hard and trying to make some money. But you don't have to worry. I'll give you the tuition and living expenses for next year.

"We can't use your money all the time, you should save some money yourself." Qian Aishu whispered.

"What money do I have to save when I'm alone? Don't fight with me, as long as you read your books well and be admitted to university in the future, I won't be busy in vain. The dog patted Qian Aishu on the shoulder, looking like a loving father.

"I'll try my best to go to school, it's winter vacation, and I won't miss my homework." Qian Aishu lowered his head.

"That's it, you go home. I've got the money ready, so you don't have to worry about it. ”

Someone came to look for Dogdan, and Dogan went to get busy. Qian Aishu had no choice but to go back.

The rest of the days, in winter, there was no farm work to do. Qian Aishu had to stay at home and review his homework.

The days go by quickly, these days, Daddy Qian and Aunt Qian have sold all the living things in the family that can be exchanged for money, but they still don't have enough money to pay for the tuition of the book. Daddy Qian's face became darker and darker day by day. Qian Aishu felt distressed.

Goudan came to Daddy Qian several times, and wanted to give the money to Daddy Qian, but Daddy Qian just didn't accept it, and finally Goudan said, I lent you this money, and now I don't spend money, it's important to read to the child.

Daddy Qian refused to accept anything.

Soon it was the Chinese New Year, and only Xiaobao and her mother did not go home for the New Year in the whole village. After the fifteenth, it is time for Qian Aishu to go back to school in the city. Daddy Qian's face was still gloomy, and Qian Aishu knew that money was not enough.

That night, the dog came again. He pulled Daddy Qian out of the house, and Qian Aishu quietly followed behind them.

Goudan said to Daddy Qian: "Uncle, for the sake of the children, please accept the money, it is important for the child to go to school, if you have any grievances, it doesn't matter if you send it to me, but you must ask for this money today, all the sins are caused by me, I will go to hell, but if you don't accept the money, what will the scholar take to school?" ”

Father Qian didn't say a word, stood quietly, and finally, he finally took the money handed over by the dog.

Xiaobao and her mother never returned to the village. Qian Aishu has been feeding the puppy that Xiaobao gave him very carefully, almost a month. When the puppy first came, it was just a little bit, and before going to school, Qian Aishu specially weighed that the puppy was already 10 pounds.

"Xiaobao, I can't take the dog away, I'm going to school, and the school can't have dogs." The roof tiles of Xiaobao's house have been blown away by the wind in some places, and it looks even more dilapidated. When it rains, the rainwater runs down the earthen walls, leaving deep grooves. The roof of the wall was also covered with thatch, and through the tiles, it was placed on the roof, and it seemed to creak like the broken door.

Jiangbei Middle School opened on the eighteenth day of the first month. Qian Aishu took the money that the dog "lent" to his family and reported to the school on time.

Last semester's results, Qian Aishu only learned that he was the first when he arrived at school, although Li Hongdou was not the first from the bottom, but not much from the first. Fan Yan was the second place, so when he came to school, Fan Yan was full of energy, and his short hair was full of energy. When Qian Aishu met him at the school gate, he greeted Qian Aishu loudly, "Qian Aishu, Happy New Year!" Qian Aishu hurriedly agreed, "Happy New Year, Fan Yan." "It seems that Qian Aishu is not as energetic as Fan Yan.

"It's so boring for the Chinese New Year, so I'm looking forward to starting school soon and playing football." After saying a few words, Fan Yan began to mention football, and football is always indispensable in Fan Yan's conversation. "You watched that game during the winter vacation...... Fan Yan looked at Qian Aishu very seriously.

Qian Aishu knew what he was going to ask, so he quickly changed the topic, because he knew that when it came to football, Fan Yan would definitely be endless.

"Did you go to Mr. Xie's house for New Year's greetings during the winter vacation? Li Hongdou went. Qian Aishu asked Fan Yan, in fact, he didn't know if Li Hongdou had gone, but he guessed that Li Hongdou would definitely go, and if he was from the city, he would also go.

"Go." Fan Yan replied, "Have you heard, Mr. Xie will be our homeroom teacher this semester." ”

"What about Mr. Li?" Qian Aishu was a little surprised.

"It looks like I'm going to be transferred to the Provincial Writers' Association." Fan Yannunu mouthed, "You know, my relationship with Teacher Xie has not been very good, so ...... Hehe. Fan Yan smiled, "Life is not easy." ”

"Where?" Qian Aishu was a little uncomfortable when he heard it, "Teacher Xie is not that kind of person. ”

"I hope so." Fan Yan snapped his knuckles to "gurgle".
