He actually told himself that he didn't want to go to school.

Qiao Shu frowned and looked at Damao: "Da Mao, do you know what you are saying? You finally have an opportunity, others want it but there is no way, but you actually give up?"

Damao looked at Qiao Shu's expression and knew he had said something wrong. He quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Sister Shushu, I............"

Qiao Shu shook his head and interrupted him: "It's okay, I'm not the one you should apologize to. You have the right to make your own choice, but I think it's your loss if you don't go to school. You should know by now that many places require knowledge. If you can't read, you won't get far."

Damao was silent.

Of course, he also knew that he couldn't throw away this opportunity just because he didn't want to go.

But he felt that if he went to school, his future livelihood problem would be solved and he would no longer have to rely on Qiao Shu for support. This feeling was really bad.

He also knew that Qiao Shu was right. After all, this opportunity was rare.

But he had no choice. He couldn't let himself and Ermao starve to death together.

Ermao and Xiaohua have been sent away by Qiao Shu.

Qiao Shu sighed, walked over and patted Damao on the back: "Da Mao, tell me, what's the problem you're having? Let's solve it together, okay?"

What could be so unspeakable about this matter?

Damao knew he couldn't tell Qiao Shu.

Qiao Shu is very kind. If he knew, he would definitely be willing to support him and Ermao.

They are two boys and have nothing to do with Qiao Shu.

Studying is not something that can be done in a year or two.

Qiao Shu can help them temporarily, but he can't help them forever.

They must resolve this matter themselves.

Dashou lowered his head, his voice dejected: "I don't have any secrets to hide. I just feel that I have nothing to talk about with those little guys. There's no need to waste time in school. I think I'm fine the way I am now."

After hearing what Damao said, Qiao Shu sighed, "Da Mao, you're still young and you don't understand. If you really don't want to go to school, then don't go. But you can't deprive me of my obligation to take care of you and Ermao. I know you don't want to be a burden to me and you want to be self-reliant. I have no objection to that, but I still hope you can think it over carefully."

After hearing what Qiao Shu said, Dashou was a little at a loss.

He didn't know what to do.

If he went to school, he and Ermao would really not be able to support themselves, but if he didn't go to school, Qiao Shu would be very disappointed, and he didn't want her to be disappointed in him.

Qiao Shu continued, "Da Mao, let's go to school together. I know what you're thinking, but you have to know that your age is the best time to learn knowledge. If you don't go to school now, you really won't know anything. When you grow up, you'll find these things too simple and mediocre, and you won't be able to master them at all. It may even become a lifelong regret. So, whether you want to go to school or not, you have to learn. Do you understand?"

Damao: “…”

Damao was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at Qiao Shu: "I've decided, I won't go to school."

He has made up his mind, even though this decision will affect his whole life, he has no regrets.
