"Sister Liang? She and I are neighbors. We live downstairs from each other. She is a widow with four children. It's really hard for her.
"You don't know, when I was off work, I saw them picking up trash, their hands were so cold..."
Li Qinghe talked about how miserable the children were, and finally concluded: "The four of them are very sensible, but because of family reasons, they have suffered so much since childhood. I really can't bear it, so I just want to help as much as I can."
This successfully aroused Ding Qiunan's sympathy. "These kids have it so hard. Liang Ladi is so naughty in the factory. I didn't know she was under so much pressure."
"Qinghe, you are such a good person, but you must also act within your ability and don't drag yourself down."
Although she is kind-hearted and sympathizes with Liang Ladi's family, she is not a saint. She has experienced suffering and understands that everything should be done in moderation.
Even if it was her, how good could it be?
Her parents were under supervision and unable to work, so the family of three depended on her salary alone. If the old couple had not been so greedy, they would not have stewed the chicken that Li Qinghe sent them.
Don’t these two old people know that this is not good?
Of course they know that as intellectuals, they naturally know how to save face, but life has taught them that saving face is useless and is not as real as a chicken.
Li Qinghe could hear the worry in Ding Qiunan's tone and laughed, "I know, don't worry. Although I don't have any special abilities, I can still get some food."
He secretly took out three pieces of candy from his pocket, and seeing that everyone around him was eating seriously, he quietly put them in the other person's hand. When their hands touched, Ding Qiunan trembled.
"Here, eat one when you're hungry in the afternoon."
Ding Qiunan was a little at a loss. She had never been held by the hand like this before, and she couldn't help blushing.
But when she felt the thing in her hand, she knew she had misunderstood. The other person was not trying to take advantage of her, but was giving her candy.
I wanted to refuse, but there were so many people around me that I couldn't say it directly, so I whispered, "Take it back, I can't have it."
"You can take it. I don't mind that." Li Qinghe whispered, "I still have some connections. I can get a lot of food. Just eat it with peace of mind."
Ding Qiunan hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you."
Then carefully hide the candy in your pocket.
Now she has very special feelings for Li Qinghe. She would not object if they really started a relationship, but she wants to go to college. If she goes to college, she will have to leave here, which means she will have to separate from Li Qinghe. She doesn't know how to handle their relationship.
After thinking it over, she still felt that she had to make it clear, because she could feel that Li Qinghe liked her.
"Qinghe, I have always had a goal, which is to go to college, and I am preparing for it."
Li Qinghe said as he was eating: "This is a good thing. Going to university will allow you to learn a lot of advanced knowledge, which will be more beneficial for your future."
Ding Qiunan showed a hint of surprise. He didn't expect the other party to say that. Then his expression became complicated.
"You want me to go to college?"
"Of course. If our country wants to develop, it will definitely need many high-level talents. We can't just rely on those with only junior high school or high school education. Although we are not very friendly to intellectuals now, we are destined to be inseparable from these people. So, if you want to go to college, go ahead and take it."
"If I get into college, I will leave here." Ding Qiunan whispered, staring at Li Qinghe's reaction.
"I'm going to leave for sure. What can I learn here?" Li Qinghe said as if it was a matter of course.
Then, as if he had thought of something, he said, "You are worried about your parents, right? Don't worry, I told you that I will send more food to them after they are finished. I will definitely not let them go hungry. I will also help you find a way to pay for your college expenses. You just need to study hard."
Ding Qiunan had a complicated expression, "What are you doing this for?"
Li Qinghe looked into her eyes and said seriously, "Because I like you, is that reason enough?"
Ding Qiunan looked confused. "You like me, so shouldn't you try to keep me by your side? Why do you support me leaving?"
"Because this is your dream. If you like someone, you don't have to keep him/her by your side. Otherwise, it would be a torture for both of you. Supporting each other and fulfilling each other's dreams, don't you think it's romantic? And even if you keep the person, can you keep his/her heart? Life is too short. You have to be willful for your dream once, right?
"If you encounter any difficulties, tell me and I will help you find a solution."
Ding Qiunan looked at him and smiled brightly, "Can you help me get a letter of recommendation?"
Li Qinghe knew her difficulties long ago and shrugged, "I can't guarantee it, but I have to give it a try. What if it works? At least when I talk about it in the future, I can confidently say that I tried my best and I don't regret it."
Looking at the man in front of her, Ding Qiunan felt that he was glowing, and being next to him, she felt warm.
Li Qinghe sighed in his heart that the chicken soup for the soul in later generations is really powerful, especially in this simple age, its power is terrifying.
Ding Qiunan bit her lip with emotion, "Thank you."
"Eat quickly, or it will get cold." Li Qinghe smiled.
He knew Ding Qiunan's character quite well. If he just targeted her parents and attacked them with sugar-coated bullets, he could get her, but that was not what Li Qinghe wanted.
He not only wants people, he also wants their hearts.
In the play, Ding Qiunan actually lived in a daze in the later period of his life. He kept compromising with life. He could not get recommendation from the factory, could not go to college, and his dream was out of reach.
The early Ding Qiunan was the real her. Her determination to go to college was unbreakable and she would not let anything stop her.
And Li Qinghe wanted to take advantage of this. Don’t you want to go to college?
No problem, I fully support you.
I will not only support you ideologically, but also materially. I will solve all your worries and help you support your parents.
Even if the factory doesn't give you a letter of recommendation, I will still try to help you. Whether it will succeed or not is another matter, but I will definitely help.
I've treated you like this, how can you not be loyal to me?
As for what happened in later generations, when she went to college, she looked down on her boyfriend who had always supported her and wanted to kick him away.
This is courting death. What era is this? Not to mention that the storm is about to begin.
Even if there is no storm, no one would dare to do this, otherwise their spine would be broken, their whole family would not be able to hold their heads up, and their college education would be in vain. No one would hire them after graduation, and they might even have to stay in prison for a few years.
In the afternoon, in the cafeteria, Nan Yi was directing everyone to work, especially with the pork, and no mistakes could be made.
Now the menu is listed and all the workers are watching here.
"Nan Yi, let's go. I have prepared everything. All I need is your craftsmanship."
Li Qinghe stopped at the entrance of the cafeteria, propped up the bike with one foot and shouted.
"I'm coming, I'm coming. Remember what I told you. Don't make any mistakes. I'm going to go out first. Liu Minggan, you stay here and watch."
