Originally, Meng Zhaodi wanted to change her destiny by going to school, but now, this way is not feasible, so he can only go to work in the city. Anyway, she doesn't want to stay in the village, and waits like her sisters At a certain age, she will marry into a nearby village and be a farmer all her life.

At this time Meng Qingqing came out, and Meng Zhaodi said excitedly: "Qingqing!"

When Meng Qingqing saw Meng Zhaodi, she knew that she must have something to say to herself. Yesterday, Meng Zhaodi had been following Meng Qingqing, as if she was full of thoughts and hesitated to speak.

Meng Qingqing pulled Meng Zhaodi aside, "Zhaodi, you seem to have something, tell me! What's the matter?"

Hearing Meng Qingqing's direct question, Meng Zhaodi couldn't help shedding tears, "Qingqing, my mother gave birth to a younger brother, and my father won't let me go to school."

Although what Meng Zhaodi said was illogical, Meng Qingqing still understood the cause and effect of it. People in the village have a serious patriarchal thought, and it is normal for them to ignore their daughters when they have sons. Meng Zhaodi's family already has The four girls have been looking forward to having a boy, but there has been no one, so they put their hopes on Meng Zhaodi and let her go to school, but now they have a younger brother, so they don't let Meng Zhaodi continue to go to school, and save the money Sending her younger brother to school, marrying a wife, etc., anyway, her parents' thoughts will only be on her younger brother.

It's also a girl, but grandma and father treat Meng Qingqing as a treasure, so Meng Zhaodi can't do without envy.

At this moment, put yourself in Meng Zhaodi's position and think about it. Meng Qingqing still felt very sorry for her. She felt that girls living in the village were compared to girls in other places. Fate is too unfair to them. But Meng Qingqing is still a child herself, and she doesn't know what will happen to her father's illness, so she can't even protect herself! I can't help Meng Zhaodi either.

"Zhaodi, please persuade your father so that you can continue to go to school. Didn't you say that you don't want to stay in this place for the rest of your life? You can only go out if you go to school."

Meng Zhaodi shook her head, "Qingqing, it's useless. My father will not agree to let me go to school again. I also give up. The way to go to school will not work. Just think of other ways."

"What method?"

"Qingqing, didn't your father go to college? He also went out, and now he lives and works in peace and contentment in the provincial capital. He is doing well, and I think I can also go to work. But I am not familiar with Qingqing, can I Can't take me to the provincial capital.

I'm going to the provincial capital to work. "Meng Zhaodi plucked up the courage to speak out what was in her heart.

Meng Qingqing knew that Meng Zhaodi was a very thoughtful person, but she didn't expect her to say that. Meng Zhaodi and her are good friends on the surface, but Meng Qingqing knows that Meng Zhaodi's mother is a jealous and small-minded person. Her father is also a grumpy one. Growing up in such a family environment, Meng Zhaodi will be more or less influenced by her parents. So the news of the death of Meng Qingqing's father in the previous life came back, and Meng Zhaodi became her good friend. On the surface, she sympathized with her, but secretly she was a little gloating. Later, Meng Qingqing's grandmother also passed away. When Meng Qingqing's uncle took Meng Qingqing away, because Meng Zhaodi had a younger brother, her family stopped letting her go to school, and she was very jealous of Meng Qingqing. , why Meng Qingqing is better than her even if she is an orphan. It seems that all her misfortunes are because of Meng Qingqing.

So for a narrow-minded person like Meng Zhaodi, Meng Qingqing no longer regards her as a friend. Because she didn't hurt Meng Qingqing, Meng Qingqing still maintained a relationship with her on the surface. For what happened to Meng Zhaodi at this time, Meng Qingqing sincerely sympathized with her, but she didn't want to have anything to do with her, and brought her to the provincial capital. I can't bear the responsibility, not to mention that Meng Zhaodi has a mother who is very snarky. Meng Qingqing didn't want to cause trouble for no reason.

"Zhaodi, you are only thirteen years old now, so you can be considered a child laborer! No one dares to use child labor now, because it is illegal. If you want to work, you must be at least sixteen years old. Besides, everyone says I am Dad has earned money by working part-time, but you don’t know how my father suffered for it, my father was exhausted from working so hard, who knows and who can experience this?”

Meng Zhaodi showed a disappointed look, "Qingqing, we are good friends, right? Can you help me? I'm not only thirteen years old when I'm looking for a job, but I'm seventeen years old. Others don't know the truth. You are taller than you, and someone should believe that I am seventeen years old. I have done everything at home since I was a child, and I am no worse than those older ones when I go to work."

"Zhaodi, it's not that simple, it doesn't matter what you say, people want to see the ID card, and you don't even have an ID card!"

"Qingqing, please help me! I don't want to stay in the village, I don't want to stay for a day. I heard that your family is hiring a nanny, so I will go to be a nanny for your family! I don't need wages, as long as I have food and shelter. I also eat very little, so I won't eat much from your family." Meng Zhaodi almost begged pitifully.

If it was Meng Qingqing from the previous life, Meng Zhaodi had already asked for this, and she would definitely agree. Even if she was unwilling in her heart, she couldn't refuse, but now Meng Qingqing once watched her father become a good person for most of her life, and she gave so much for her brothers and sisters. Not only was she not grateful, but she also repaid her kindness, so Meng Qingqing knew that sometimes her kindness might actually hurt herself. Sympathy for untrustworthy people is undoubtedly a reprint of The Farmer and the Snake, and I can live my life again, so I can't make such a mistake again.

"Zhaodi, my family hired a nanny before because my father and grandma had just undergone surgery and needed someone to take care of them. I had to go to school and couldn't take care of them, so I had to hire a nanny. Three months later, grandma After recovering physically, I quit the nanny, never hired a nanny again, and now I don’t need to hire a nanny, so I’m sorry, but you still have to think of other ways, I’m just a student, I can’t help you much. There’s really nothing I can do.”

"Then leave me your home phone number." Meng Zhaodi did not give up.

"I don't have a phone at home." Meng Qingqing lied and refused directly.

Seeing Meng Qingqing's resolute words, Meng Zhaodi was saddened. Meng Qingqing had really changed, not only her dress, her manner and her speech, but also her ideas. Most importantly, her heart was much harder than before. Meng Qingqing used to be A person with a very soft heart, she just listens to herself if she says a few nice words, but now, no matter what she says, Meng Qingqing is not moved. Can't control her. Has she suddenly become so smart after living in the city for half a year? It is said that people in the city are smart, is that true?

Meng Zhaodi was very disappointed. She thought about it all night and thought of everything, including putting down her face and preferring to work as a nanny at Meng Qingqing's house, but she never thought that Meng Qingqing would reject her so righteously. And it left her speechless.

Meng Qingqing took out a light blue wallet from her pocket, took out a hundred yuan bill and handed it to Meng Zhaodi, "Zhaodi, I'm sorry, I can't help you, this is my own pocket money, you can use it ! Others, I really can't help."

Meng Zhaodi wanted to refuse, but she didn't have the courage. The living expenses her family gave her to go to school did not exceed ten yuan a week, let alone any pocket money. In her impression, she had never seen any pocket money, but Meng Qingqing casually You can just take out a hundred-dollar bill and say, this is my pocket money.

So this piece of money was very tempting to Meng Zhaodi, she took the money without any refusal, and held it tightly in her hand. The joy of getting this money temporarily offset the disappointment of not being able to work in the city, so that Meng Qingqing turned and left, but she still stood there blankly.

Ling Yunfeng looked at Meng Zhaodi from afar, "Who is that? Why are you looking for me?"

"She used to go to and from school with me, but now, she's out of school."

"why?"

"It must be because the family can't afford it!" Li Yahui looked around. "If I hadn't seen such a backward place with my own eyes, I would not have believed it. So it is inevitable that the children here will drop out of school."

"Aren't primary and junior high schools compulsory education? How much do they cost?" Ling Yunfeng was puzzled.

"Compulsory education can't provide you with the living expenses of living in school!" Meng Qingqing said.

Thinking that the middle school in the town is still so far away from the village where Meng Qingqing lives, it is impossible not to live in the school. As long as you live in the school, you will incur expenses. Ling Yunfeng didn't say anything more. (To be continued.)
