Chen Sheng took out a handful of money from his pocket, including some of them, and didn't read much, and stuffed them all into the hands of the child, saying to him very seriously, "Xiangyang, although the books collected from the scrap purchase station did not cost much money, they spent money after all, and selling them backhand will definitely be different from the purchase price. You buy the last book and this book. When your work stabilizes, you can send your sister to school. But such behavior must not be done. You are the child of our Tenghai Scientific Research Base and you cannot discredit the base."

Xiangyang blushed and his heart was beating.

He used to be a child of a scientific research base. He knew it himself, but he also knew that from the day he walked out of the door, the scientific research base had nothing to do with their family anymore.

Xiangyang's heartbeats quickly, "Uncle, I...I..."

He didn't know what to say.

"Okay, don't be polite to uncle. When I first went to the scientific research base, your dad helped me a lot. The money was not given to you, it was considered to be a loan to you. You are going to work now. It's several hundred yuan a month, so I can definitely pay it back. Now, I will return the money to others by listening to my uncle. Can't let someone point fingers behind my back? Did you listen to the sermon?"

Xiangyang's eyes turned red again when he said it.

"Go and go, we should go back to the unit," Qiao Qingyu said in a gentle voice, "There are dormitories in the pig farm and the unit has a commuter car. If you want to take care of your family, you can take a commuter car. If you want to stay, you don't have to take your luggage."

After giving some instructions, Xiangyang wiped his tears and returned to the scrap purchase station. The two of them stood by the roadside and didn't leave. He saw him give the money to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was obviously a little embarrassed. He didn't want these books, but by the way, the textbooks that Xiangyang held in his hand were less than 50 cents.

The reason why he is so tough is that this child's family is too poor, which is really difficult. He has to eat. Every time he struggles to sell waste here, he can earn ten or eight yuan, so he goes to the pharmacy to buy medicine for his father and grandma.

He was worried that this child would be used to stealing his hands, and that he would not only take books but also other things in the future, which would make people very annoying.

But now seeing this, what my father at home said is very right. Stay at the forefront of everything and meet in the future.

There is another saying, don’t bully the young man’s poor!

So the middle-aged man also changed his attitude. He refused to charge money and sent Xiangyang to the side of the road. He was embarrassed to explain his original intention to Qiao Qingyu and Chen Sheng. He was holding a bag of books in his hand and stuffed them to Xiangyang.

But this was said to Qiao Qingyu and the other two, "I heard that Xiangyang's sister is so smart. She can get 100 points by studying at home and then doing school papers. My son, the teacher, has just passed the exam. Xiangyang, will come to the uncle for any books he needs in the future."

However, Xiangyang did not accept it calmly this time. In his selfish thought that these two uncles and aunts who claim to be father and colleagues definitely did not want to read him to take other people's books for nothing, so he owe them this favor.

Xiangyang insisted on paying for takeaway prices according to the price of books in the scrap purchase station. It didn't sound much, only three yuan. But for Xiangyang, who was clean in his pocket, the money was not too much. At least he could buy a bunch of steamed buns for their family to eat for several days.

Chen Sheng gave Xiangyang a few more words, mainly to test Lao Xiang's attitude. If Lao Xiang doesn't want them to come to the door, then there is nothing he can do.

The child walked towards the shanty town in the northeast with a pile of books.

Qiao Qingyu and Chen Sheng are preparing to return to Tenghai Scientific Research Base.

Chen Sheng sighed, "I didn't expect Lao Xiang to be so unlucky, alas..."

Qiao Qingyu, "I hope he can agree to Xiangyang come to work." Then, without waiting for Chen Sheng to speak, "There is Xiangyang's sister, you can't drop out of school, you have to think of a solution."

Chen Sheng nodded, said a few words to Qiao Qingyu, got on the bus and drove towards the base.

...

Xiangyang hugged a lot of books and returned to the shanty town where they now live in dizzyly.

Although it is in the city, it is a bit messy because it is located in the suburbs and because it is a broken house from decades ago.

It is said that it is likely to be demolished, but the relevant documents have not been released yet. Many people rent houses here, and everyone is not concerned about it.

There are many people here, and there are really everyone.

There is a thatched house in the bottom of the house that has been disrepair for many years. The dilapidated door was hanging next to it. The yard was swept clean. A girl of seven or eight years old pushed open the door and saw her brother coming back. The girl ran forward happily, her eyes bright like stars in the sky. She looked at the books in her brother's hand with joy, and her voice was very excited, "Brother, do you give them all to me? Are they all for me?"

Xiangyang looked around and then at the book in his hand. He was sure that he was not dreaming. It was true. He nodded heavily, "Xiaoxing, this is all bought by my brother for you."

Xiang Xing is shorter than the children of the same age, very thin, and his eyes are getting bigger and bigger. Although his body is worn in a worn, it is also very clean. His expression of joy faded away little by little. She was a little uneasy, "Brother, have you spent money? Didn't you buy medicine for grandma and dad for the money for selling waste? We have to return it. You can't use this money to buy books. It's too wasteful..."

Xiangyang felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to pat his sister's head, but unfortunately he was holding a bunch of books in both hands. His heart was undulating and moving quickly into the house. He said as he walked, "Xiaoxing, brother has a job."

"Really, brother, you have a job, what are you going to do? Will they want you? Didn't you say you are young and don't accept it?"

Although many children now go to work directly after graduating from junior high school, Xiangyang has never found a suitable job, and there are fewer and fewer places to recruit apprentices. There are many work on construction sites. After he went to work for a few days, people drove him back. It was really thin. When he saw that he was malnourished, the work on the construction site was really tiring and hard, and he was working hard. If something happened, the contractor and the contractor would have to do it.

In recent years, he has been making a living by picking up waste and selling waste, and occasionally he goes to do odd jobs for others.

He said in a brisk voice, "It is the pig farm of the Agricultural Group of Tenghai Research Base. After working for three months, it will be transferred to the official position. It is a formal establishment, with wages and benefits, dormitories and commuter cars..."

Maybe someone will think that this is a dirty and messy place when he hears the word "pig farm" and that this is a place to fool children.

Actually, it wasn't the case, it was a big mistake.

The pig farm in Tenghai is scientifically farmed, with large scale and good conditions. The employees are formally organized by the base and are sister units with the meat-related factory.

It's not that easy to go to work here.

Because there are several units of the agricultural group, only the pork farm meat factory was established in recent years. Then, with the approval of the superior, it is given a formal employee and enjoys the same treatment as other employees at the base.

Therefore, this is also a place that everyone is rushing to.

At this moment, Xiang Xing was stunned for a moment. The little girl stood foolishly at the door, looking up at her brother in disbelief. She covered her mouth. She knew vaguely that because of her own reasons, her parents were fired by the scientific research base.

What a good unit that was. She had seen it from afar with her brother. She envied the children who could enter and exit there. It was a sacred place that was out of reach for her.

Now my brother actually told her that he was going to work there.

Is it true or false?

Did the brother deliberately say this to comfort his grandmother and father?

She quickly entered the house, and at this time, Lao Xiang had already heard the conversation between the two children in the yard. He was stunned for a long time before he realized, "Xiangyang, what's going on? Come in quickly."

Xiangyang put the book on the table and quickly entered the room where his father lived.

Standing at Lao Xiang's bedside, Xiangyang's bright eyes and face were also red. He was excited. In Lao Xiang's suspicious eyes, he told his father everything he had just experienced.

Lao Xiang sat blankly on the head of the bed, his expression changed. He didn't say anything, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Xiangyang was very excited and happy, but as he spoke, his voice became weaker. He looked at his father's face nervously, and then the next moment he found that his father was crying.

Then Dad turned his face away, Xiangyang was scared, his voice trembling, "Dad, is this wrong? Then I... Then I won't go tomorrow."

Xiangyang said this, for some reason, felt very sad, as if he had lost something very important. He knew that this might be the only chance to change his destiny. Not everyone is so lucky to meet the person in charge of the base.

How could a child like him meet them?

But if his father is unhappy, he will think of other ways. In short, he will grow up day by day. When he raises him a little longer, he will not have to work hard for his mother. He will definitely be able to treat his grandmother and father and send his sister to school.

Lao Xiang touched his face, looked at his son with guilt, and then looked at his little daughter standing timidly at the door.

The couple felt guilty about Xiangyang, really. If they hadn't insisted on leaving Xiaoxing behind back then, Xiangyang would have been in high school in the middle school of the scientific research base. The couple also lived in the base. He was still driving a big truck and his wife worked in the cafeteria.

The two people's salary now totals more than 1,000 yuan. If he didn't leave Tenghai Scientific Research Base, he wouldn't have a car accident, nor would he let his father die prematurely and his mother seriously ill.

But there are not so many assumptions in life, and he doesn't regret it.

Their youngest daughter is cute, sensible and smart. His wife is not at home. He and his mother rely on the child to take care of him. The eight-year-old child can stew rice, steam mixed grains, and stir-fry vegetables.

The little daughter is busy every day, like a little adult, but the more sensible the child is, the more uncomfortable he and his wife are.

In this era, such a big child is always treasured by his parents. He goes to school at this time. He wears flower skirts in summer and beautiful down jackets in winter. His little star wears all the shoes that others don’t want. He took a look at the shoes on the child’s feet. They were given to her by his neighbor’s sister, and they were two sizes older.

Although it was very warm, Xiaoxing was dragging and dragging when wearing it, just like a little beggar stealing adult shoes.

They had implicated two children.

Lao Xiang felt very uncomfortable and reached out to cover his chest. Why did he live like this?

He was not the only one who was dismissed from public office because of his extra child. Maybe he was the only one who lived so miserably. He waved, "Come here."

Xiang Xing moved slowly over, stood beside Lao Xiang's bed, and thoughtfully stuffed a pillow behind his waist.

The room was a little cold, and I tucked the corners of the quilt for Lao Xiang, which is something this child often has to do.

The little girl leaned softly against Lao Xiang, looking up at Lao Xiang, who was both obedient and cute.

Lao Xiang wanted to slap him twice. How could the couple be qualified to blame Xiaoxing? If they hadn't insisted on giving birth to her, Xiaoxing would have been reborn in another family, and he would have been the little princess at home.

Why did we have been wandering with them since birth and suffered so much sin?

He finally spoke, his voice hoarse and some choking, "...that aunt is Qiao Qingyu, she is very good. When Chen Sheng first went to the base, I took him for a while and was also good. Dad was wrong, but he made you suffer so much."

He wiped his face and continued, "When your mother comes back and tells her this good news, the household registration book and photos are ready. I will report early tomorrow and ask your mother to send you there. Work hard and strive to become a regular person, and don't let your Aunt Qiao down on your trust."

After hearing this, Xiangyang's heart was in his stomach.

He spread a big smile, cheered happily in the room and jumped around in the room several times, holding his eyes with his hands, "Dad, I must do it well. Don't worry, I won't embarrass you, nor will I disappoint Aunt Qiao and Uncle Chen."

Lao Xiang seemed to have put down some burden, and felt that his mood was not so depressed. He smiled and said, "Go and tell your grandma."

Xiangyang jumped out and ran out, and Lao Xiang's mother lived in another room.

As soon as he walked to the door, the child remembered something and hurriedly walked over and took out the money in his pocket and put it on Lao Xiang's quilt. "Dad, this was given to me by Uncle Chen. I just counted it, and it happened to be 128. I spent three yuan to buy these books, and the remaining 125 are here. Uncle Chen said that the money was lent to me, and I can pay it back when I get my salary."

Lao Xiang also let out a long sigh. He had to accept Chen Sheng's kindness. He had to have the backbone of human beings, but he had to know his good intentions.

If you pay back the money, it will really ruin Chen Sheng's intentions.

Qiao Qingyu, who returned to the base, called the factory manager of the pig farm and told him that a new temporary worker would come tomorrow.

The factory manager responded happily, and there were only one or two people missing. Now many people are coming in, and there are almost more than one hundred people who use their relationship to go through the back door.

This is the first time Qiao Qingyu has arranged someone here, and the leader must give him the face.

And Qiao Qingyu really wants to help Xiangyang.
