Damao's eyes were red, and he clenched his fists tightly. He raised his head again and looked at Qiao Shu firmly: "I have made up my mind, and I will not regret it."
If he went to school, it was very likely that he and Ermao would drop out together in the future. However, if he did not go to school, he could earn a lot of money, and at least Ermao could stay in school.
Looking at his stubborn look, Qiao Shu sighed, "Da Mao, I actually treat you and Er Mao as my brothers. I will always be your support. If you have any problems, you must tell me. I will help you if I can. I will definitely help you."
You can say she was sympathetic or that she was a saint, but she saw both Damao and Ermao.
And it’s their attitude towards life.
Even if you haven't eaten for a long time, even if you are extremely hungry, you will never eat food given out of pity, and will only take the part that belongs to you.
She really appreciated it.
Qiao Shu's words deeply touched Damao's heart. He couldn't help but let a tear fall from the corner of his eye.
He didn't know how long it had been since he last cried.
It seemed as if there was nothing worth shedding tears for he knew that shedding tears was a privilege only enjoyed by children who were loved. For people like them, no one would sympathize with them even if they cried till their tears dried up.
From then on, he never shed a tear again.
But today, Qiao Shu's words really touched his heart.
Damao raised his hand and wiped his eyes.
Qiao Shu patted Damao's shoulder and smiled: "Da Mao, since you have made up your mind, then don't go to school. I won't force you."
Damao nodded: "Thank you, Sister Shushu."
Qiao Shu shook his head: "So, can you tell me why now?"
Damao pursed his lips, he didn't know whether he should say it or not.
Qiao Shu smiled and patted his head soothingly: "I know you must have a lot of things in your heart. Today, just treat Sister Shushu as someone you can confide in. Don't worry, I will never laugh at you. I promise, I will forget about it tomorrow."
Perhaps it was Qiao Shu's overly sincere look that made Damao drop his guard. He bit his lip and said, "Ermao and I have been hungry since we were little. My parents seem to have passed away since I was a child. At that time, Ermao was just a newborn and could only eat porridge."
Damao began to talk about his past, things he had never told anyone before.
But I don’t know why, I especially want to say it today.
After hearing what Damao said, Qiao Shu didn't know what he felt, but it felt bitter and very uncomfortable.
When she was a child, all she thought about every day was what color skirt to wear today and how to tie her hair tomorrow.
But many children of her age are thinking about what to do in the future.
Qiao Shu couldn't imagine how Damao and Ermao grew up to be so big, and wondered what difficulties they had gone through.
Damao met Qiao Shu's incredulous gaze and smiled: "I know it's hard for you to believe, but this is all my personal experience. Now that I think about it, I didn't starve Ermao to death. I don't think I'm an incompetent brother."
