rebirth of cataclysm

"Brother, I think you are a bit gossipy. Why do you care about that?" Hu Yujiao asked doubtfully after Xiong Xiaolin ran away.

"Because she is your classmate. Didn't I tell you just now? Classmates should care about and help each other. Why have we forgotten so quickly? If a person wants to have many friends, he must think about others. Otherwise, he must take care of himself.

If you do, there will only be fewer and fewer friends, and even if you have some, they will hardly be the kind of close friends." Hu Mingchen withdrew his gaze from Xiong Xiaolin and looked at Hu Yujiao.

"Then just ask me. If you ask her about these things, she won't tell you. Xiong Xiaolin is just that kind of person." Hu Yujiao said.

"Do you know the situation of her family?" In Hu Mingchen's view, Hu Yujiao and Xiong Xiaolin are not friends, so there is no reason for them to care about and understand the situation of her family.

"Look at what you said, you think I'm a fool. It's true that my relationship with her is not good, but don't forget, several classmates in our class are from Ganhe. I don't know that they know, but they know

Can't you tell me?" As she spoke, Hu Yujiao lowered her voice deliberately: "I'll tell you.

Let me tell you, Xiong Xiaolin’s father ran away with her younger brother and a girl, and did not want them mother and daughter. Therefore, her family’s life was actually not very good, and sometimes they could not eat meat for a month. I heard that her family did not kill Nian.

Pigs, you have to sell them to feed them. If you don’t sell them, Xiong Xiaolin won’t have tuition..."

It's hard to tell that Hu Yujiao really knows a lot about the situation of Xiong Xiaolin's family in quite detail.

After listening to his sister's story, Hu Mingchen fell into deep thought.

Hu Mingchen can understand that kind of living situation very well. His family used to be similar to Xiong Xiaolin's family, and sometimes it was even worse. At least they were poor, but they were ambitious and extremely poor. Hu Mingchen's family often asked people to borrow money.

, the house is also in a mess.

Looking back, Hu Mingchen wondered if he could help their family. Although Hu Mingchen was still very limited in terms of ability, he could still help Xiong Xiaolin's family. After all, in the past year, the businesses Hu Mingchen had handled were,

If everything goes well, you can make money.

However, Hu Mingchen would not give money directly, not to mention that even if he gave it to others, he would not ask for it. Even if they wanted it, Hu Mingchen would not adopt that method.

Giving money directly, Hu Mingchen found it difficult to be accepted with dignity, and it was also difficult for him to pass the test of his parents.

My family is not so rich that if I give money to unrelated outsiders, why not give it to relatives and friends? This must be the truth for them, and it makes sense.

Whether it's Hu Jianjun's family or Jiang Yucai's husband's family, there are so many people in need of money that they simply can't get it, they can't afford it, and there are no suitable reasons or excuses.

The best way is to teach people how to fish rather than teach people how to fish. If you can introduce a way to make a living to his family, it will not be out of the ordinary. Moreover, the family has dignity and can accept it naturally.

Xiong Xiaolin's mother was very efficient, or maybe it was because of Xiong Xiaolin's help. Hu Mingchen and Hu Yujiao only chatted in the yard for more than ten minutes, and they were already served with bowls and chopsticks, and they were invited to eat.

There are four very simple dishes on the table. As Hu Yujiao said, none of them has meat. Except for one fried potato, the other three are seasonal vegetables that can be easily found in the vegetable garden or in front of and behind the house, such as melon tips.

, edamame and corn kernels.

The food is indeed not a good one, but it tastes delicious, at least that's what Hu Mingchen thinks. Seeing how delicious Hu Yujiao eats it, I guess she also thinks it's delicious.

Not only was Xiong Xiaolin's mother happy to see Hu Mingchen and Hu Yujiao enjoying their meal without any sign of disdain, but even Xiong Xiaolin felt happy and proud.

At least Hu Mingchen and Hu Yujiao not only did not dislike it, but also enjoyed it and were satisfied. This is more valuable than the ten nice words they said.

Hu Mingchen and Hu Yujiao finished three bowls of rice before putting down their bowls.

"Xiaolin, go pour some vegetable soup for them to drink." Xiong Xiaolin's mother ordered Xiong Xiaolin after she tried to persuade the Hu Mingchen brothers and sisters to have some more.

This time, Xiong Xiaolin didn't resist at all. She stood up and went to the kitchen to serve soup to them both.

Hu Mingchen did not refuse further. After eating a full meal, it was indeed more comfortable to drink some light soup, so he drank a small bowl, and Hu Yujiao also drank half a bowl.

"Ma'am, your cooking skills are really good. You make simple things so delicious." After putting down the bowl, Hu Yujiao and Xiong Xiaolin cleared the dishes together, while Hu Mingchen chatted with Xiong Xiaolin's mother.

.

"It's so good, haha, it's just a fool's errand. As long as it can have a full stomach these days." Xiong Xiaolin's mother said modestly with a smile.

"Ma'am, do you usually do things for others? I mean the kind of work that makes money." Hu Mingchen asked.

"No, hey, we here in Duge don't have anything suitable for women to do, and I don't have any education. Besides, I have to take care of Xiaolin, and I can't do that kind of fixed thing. Haha, luckily I can farm.

Click the ground and feed the pigs." As she said that, Xiong Xiaolin's mother smiled calmly.

It seems that she does not feel sorry for herself about the current situation, but faces it very positively.

"There is such a thing, I think it is quite suitable for you, and there is no conflict with taking care of the children." Hu Mingchen said.

Just now, Hu Mingchen was thinking and searching for a way to help the other party. After much deliberation, he really found a possibility for him.

"Haha, what's going on? It's as good as you said." Xiong Xiaolin's mother didn't believe that a child could tell such a reliable job.

"It's like this, ma'am, my family has opened a movie theater in the town. For a long time, meals have been cooked at home and delivered to the street. This trip is time-consuming and laborious. Sometimes the food is delivered.

It's getting cold. So, my family is looking for someone to help cook the food and clean up the movie theater. But it's just that

I have never found the right person. After eating your meal today, I think you are quite suitable. Moreover, in doing this job, I can also take care of Xiong Xiaolin. We can have lunch and dinner with her, and we can also go to work with her in the morning.

There will be no conflict in going to school, and you can go home together after dinner in the afternoon." Hu Mingchen expressed his idea.

"Does your family really want to find someone to work for? This...will your parents agree?" Xiong Xiaolin's mother did not ask about the salary. Instead, she was worried that Hu Mingchen's decision would not matter.

"Honey, my parents usually won't disapprove of my brother's words. If you go, we can have hot meals and hot dishes at noon every day." Hu Yujiao helped.

After clearing away the dishes with Xiong Xiaolin, their relationship seemed to have changed dramatically.

Hu Yujiao felt that Xiong Xiaolin was not so annoying anymore, and Xiong Xiaolin also felt that Hu Yujiao's straightforward personality was actually quite good. The two of them suddenly felt as if the previous unpleasantness had never happened.

So Hu Yujiao felt that it was a pleasant blessing that Xiong Xiaolin's mother could cook for them every day. At least Hu Yujiao really felt that the food cooked by Xiong Xiaolin's mother was much more delicious than Jiang Yucai's.

"You still have to ask your parents about this matter. Besides, Xiaolin also eats together at noon and evening. Most people are unlikely to agree." Xiong Xiaolin's mother can understand that people who work for themselves eat together, but her daughter doesn't.

Eating together seemed a bit impossible to her.

But if her daughter wants to go home and make food by herself, she is obviously not willing. Perhaps in her heart, her biggest responsibility in this life is to take good care of her daughter and raise her up. Her daughter is everything to her and supports her.

The biggest pillar to carry on in life.

"Don't worry, Ma'am, they won't object. They discussed this before, so I think you are the most suitable, but... the salary may be a bit low, about two hundred yuan a month, I'm afraid

You will feel at a disadvantage." Hu Mingchen comforted.

Hu Mingchen deliberately lowered the salary. She did not want to exploit Xiong Xiaolin and her daughter, but she had a judgment that if the salary was higher, it might make Xiong Xiaolin's mother feel unrealistic and have her own thoughts.

From a practical point of view, two hundred yuan is not low when it provides food for two people. Compared with national civil servants, it is still far behind. However, in Duge Township, where there is a serious lack of job opportunities,

This salary price is indeed quite generous.

"Don't suffer, don't suffer. Two hundred yuan a month and food for our mother and daughter are included. This is already very good. It's already very good. On the contrary, it is your family that suffers." Xiong Xiaolin's mother said hurriedly.

"Ma'am, it's settled. You go to the cinema tomorrow and let my parents talk to you. That way you can rest assured. What do you think?" Hu Mingchen's words were watertight, leaving Xiong Xiaolin's mother to decide whether to accept it or not.

It's all difficult.

"By the way, Ma'am, if you go to the street tomorrow, I wonder if you can stop by the school... Because of today's incident, my sister was kicked out of the classroom by the teacher, saying that no parents went to school, so she

I can't go to class, so I want you to intercede with the teacher... Of course, if you're not free, we won't force you. I'll let my dad go then." Hu Mingchen didn't forget the point of coming to Xiong Xiaolin's house today.

.

When Hu Mingchen said that Hu Jianjun would be allowed to go to school, Hu Yujiao became nervous and angry at Hu Mingchen, feeling that Hu Mingchen was harming her.

In fact, Hu Yujiao didn't know that Hu Mingchen was indulging in lust. Hu Mingchen was very sure that Xiong Xiaolin's mother would definitely help her. Whether it was because she could really work in the cinema in the future or because of her personality, in short, she would definitely go to school.

Although the teacher asked Hu Yujiao to invite her parents, Hu Mingchen believed that the same effect would be achieved if Xiong Xiaolin's parents went there.

"Okay, nothing happened, and Xiaolin didn't do anything either. I'll go and tell the truth tomorrow." As Hu Mingchen expected, Xiong Xiaolin's mother readily agreed.
