Chapter 306 Heartbroken
Lin Xiao has always thought of herself as kind, hasn't she? Then she should just give up this position.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi walked up to Lin Xiao and said directly, "Little sister, I also want to be a commune teacher. You can give me this position. I really like doing this, and I think I'm more capable than you."
Lin Xiao was clearly taken aback by the request and hesitated for a moment before shaking her head and saying, "I'm afraid that won't work. Aunt Qian specifically asked me to go. If she finds out that someone else has been replaced, it might not be good."
That's the truth. She didn't fight for this opportunity or just give it up. It was Aunt Qian who pulled some strings to find her the job. If she just gave it to someone else, she would be letting Aunt Qian down.
Lin Xi frowned and said, "Lin Xiao, you are such a selfish person. You are my sister, but you keep all the good things to yourself. I think your usual generosity is just an act."
Lin's mother scolded, "Lin Xi, how dare you speak like that? This is Lin Xiao's chance, why do you want everything?"
Lin's father also frowned and said, "It is indeed Lin Xiao's good fortune to have a benefactor help her. You shouldn't envy her for everything."
Lin Xi finally snapped: "You all favor her. If that's the case, then I'll just leave."
She ran out in anger.
Lin Xiao watched her retreating figure and said with some concern, "I'll go check on her."
"Don't worry about her. There's still a lot of work to do. I think she's just making an excuse to do less work. She'll be back soon," Lin's mother said.
These days, Lin Xi has indeed made many excuses not to work. They have more work than they can finish, but they still have to help Lin Xi with her work. However, since they are all family, no one criticizes her and they all help her finish her work.
Lin's mother's guess was correct. Lin Xi ran away this time partly because she felt it was unfair, and partly because she didn't want to stay here and work.
Even a dog wouldn't do such tiring work.
She inquired about the location of the commune primary school and gradually arrived at its entrance.
The environment here is really nice; it's so much better than the cowshed.
After Lin Xiao starts working here, she can stay in the dormitory and eat in the canteen.
In the past, Lin Xi would not have looked down on such a place, but now the conditions where she lives are too poor, and a place like the commune primary school is out of her reach.
Just then, a man walked over to the entrance of the commune primary school. He was about forty years old, wearing a long gown and round-framed glasses, and looked very cultured.
He looked at Lin Xi and said with a smile, "Little girl, are you here looking for someone?"
Lin Xi shook her head: "No, I just wanted to ask if this school is still hiring? I'm a vocational school student, so I can apply to be a teacher there too."
She was feeling irritable, and seeing that the other person seemed to be a teacher inside, she made this inquiry.
The man in the long gown glanced at her, scrutinized her closely, and asked, "Are you a vocational school student?"
Lin Xi nodded: "Yes."
The man laughed: "Isn't this a coincidence? I am the principal of the commune primary school. Our school is currently short of people, especially people like you. It would be great if you could come and be a teacher at our school."
Lin Xi's face was full of joy: "Are you serious? Can I really do it?"
The man nodded: "Of course, vocational school graduates are a rare breed these days. It would be wonderful if our school could have more vocational school graduates."
Lin Xi's face was full of excitement.
She knew she was no less capable than Lin Xiao.
What Lin Xiao can do, she certainly can do too.
Her family doted on Lin Xiao, giving her all the good things, but there were still people who appreciated her excellence.
Look.
The principal of the commune primary school understood her. He knew that she was a rare vocational school graduate, and that she could easily teach these primary school students, and that she could do it much better than Lin Xiao.
Lin Xi wanted to compete with Lin Xiao, and she wanted to do better than Lin Xiao in every aspect.
She just couldn't understand why she received such different treatment just because she wasn't as pretty as Lin Xiao.
At home, everyone always praises Lin Xiao.
"Then, Principal, when can I go in and teach?" Lin Xi asked impatiently.
A glint flashed in the eyes of the man in the long robe: "You can come now."
Now?
A hint of doubt flashed in Lin Xi's eyes: "It's getting late now, they'll all be getting out of school soon. How about I come back tomorrow? I still need to inform my family about this."
At this point, Lin Xi felt a surge of joy, and she couldn't wait to show it off to her family.
She can also be a teacher in the commune; it's not just Lin Xiao who can do it.
Lin Xiao was just lucky; she happened to have someone help her, which is why she had the opportunity to enter the commune school. But she was different; she got this opportunity entirely through her own abilities.
She felt that she was indeed capable, after all, she had gotten into a vocational school on her own merit. Although Lin Xiao's grades were higher than hers, she was not bad either.
The man in the long robe immediately said, "There are still many procedures to go through. You still need to enter the data. Let's finish the data together today, and then you can go back and inform your family."
Lin Xi thought it made sense: "Okay then."
She was in a hurry and wanted to finish the process quickly, so she followed the man in the long robe.
But halfway there, she felt something was off: "Aren't we going into the school?"
The man in the long robe laughed and said, "The school's offices haven't been repaired yet, so we're leaving the documents outside."
"Oh, really?" Lin Xi found it a bit strange.
The commune primary school clearly looks like it's been repaired for a while now, so how could the office not be finished yet? But right now, all she can think about is becoming a teacher, and she has no time to think about anything else.
So she followed the man in the long robe.
When they arrived at a courtyard, another man suddenly appeared and subdued Lin Xi.
Lin Xi realized she had been tricked: "What are you going to do?"
The man in the long gown smiled and said, "This one is a vocational school graduate, so we can sell it for a higher price."
Lin Xi shouted loudly, but the other party already knew what she was going to do. They gagged Lin Xi with a rag and then tied her up.
Despair instantly filled her eyes.
The man in the long robe changed her clothes again, then cut her hair short, completely changing her look, and no one recognized her anymore.
Then he locked Lin Xi up again.
Lin Xi then discovered that there was a basement with two girls of similar age to her inside. They had obviously been tricked into coming here as well, and their eyes were lifeless.
Her heart died completely.
