Chapter 24: Bad Taste
Her voice was small and thin, and a wisp of breath was as long as silk.
Tan Jingyun inexplicably felt that all her internal organs were smoothed out by her coquettish voice, and all the strength of her body was unloaded in an instant, so she was so comfortable that she couldn't help but let out a low sigh, and promised again and again: "Okay, don't ask, so as not to cause trouble for you." ”
Between the words, there is a sense of indulgence.
Xu Sirou didn't know what went wrong, which made a simple greeting call between the two of them change, but the softer and accommodating he was, the more faintly uneasy she became.
"Silky?"
"Brother Yu." The voice on the other side of the earpiece recalled her wandering thoughts, "I, I haven't finished my meal yet, I want to eat something more, is it okay?" ”
Tan Jingyun didn't doubt him, and after a few more instructions, he hung up the phone.
*
It has been nearly two weeks since Tan Jingyun left. If he doesn't come back, Xu Sirou will be free.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the mall cleared and the merchants closed one after another.
Xiang Tian asked Xu Sirou to come out, and hurriedly stopped her: "Sisi, the mutual aid association starts classes today, let's go?" ”
Xu Sirou nodded and followed his footsteps.
Xiang Tianwen, a mutual aid association, had mentioned to her that it was founded by Zhenhua School and the mysterious patron, mainly to help oppressed women, teach them literacy, arithmetic and other courses.
Although the money is not much, Xiang Tianwen and Xu Sirou both feel that this work is very meaningful, and it just so happens that one of the teachers who was originally here has moved out of Ningzhou, so Xiang Tianwen recommended her to replace her.
The event address is not far from the mall, and the two walked and chatted all the way, and it didn't take ten minutes to arrive.
The blue-gray courtyard door was pushed open, and the door of the small tiled house was not closed, and a room full of people was already sitting inside.
When the door rang, they turned their heads to her.
Xu Sirou came for the first time, and so many people looked at her at the same time, which made her feel a little uncomfortable, and her hand holding the bag tightened quietly.
Fortunately, an eldest sister in the crowd stood up first, and greeted her warmly with a smile on her face: "This is Miss Xu introduced by Xiao Xiang, right?" Come on, come on, we've wanted to see you for a long time! ”
As he spoke, he pulled her into the house with a smile on his face.
"Xiao Xiang said that your knowledge is good." The eldest sister's expression was a little cramped, but she still grinned and continued, "He said that you can teach us more culture. If we learn everything you have taught, we will be able to earn money to support ourselves like you, without looking at the faces of the men in our families. Miss Xu, I just don't know, are you willing to teach us rough people. With that, she lowered her head a little embarrassed and rubbed her hands.
Xu Sirou also lowered her head, and her gaze slowly moved up from the eldest sister's cracked hands in front of her, falling on the red and simple face.
The person in front of her was just an ordinary woman on the street, but somehow, she saw that Xu Sirou's heart was hot, and a wave of water came up in her eyes, which made her eyes a little swollen and painful.
She tried to calm her emotions and gently hugged the eldest sister's shoulder: "Eldest sister, there is no rough person who is not rough." We're all women, it's the same. If women still devalue each other, the way of the world will only look down on us even more......"
Although Xu Sirou's voice was low, she raised her eyes and silently glanced around, and her eyes were still staring at her.
It seems to agree, and it seems to be cheering her up.
She continued: "We don't have anyone to teach anyone, we can only do our best to help each other." With that, she let go of the eldest sister and walked slowly to the podium.
