The class she teaches has more than half of the poor students in the school. She feels that even if she is exhausted, 80% of the bonus will not go into her pocket. However, the principal said that as long as she can make a little progress, she will get the bonus. Although the bonus is not too much, it is still a piece of meat no matter how small it is, and it can always last for a while.
She felt around herself, took out a few dollars and put them on the table.
"Jingjing, Mom won't be home for lunch today. Here's the money for today's meal. Leave it here."
Liu Liang did not answer, but Zhou Lanping knew that she had heard it. She hurriedly picked up her bag and rushed to the school.
After she left, Liu Jing walked out of the room. She picked up the money and counted it. It was five dollars, one dollar at a time. Maybe later on, these five dollars could not even buy a meal, but now, for a bowl of rice that cost a few cents, it was enough for an average student's food expenses for a week.
She clenched the five dollars in her hand and put it on herself.
She opened the door again and walked into her room, then opened the wardrobe, which was full of clothes, all of which she brought back from the Xu family. It has to be said that in such an era of material scarcity, the overall living standards of the residents were not high, but the Xu family was the first group of people to go into business because of their ancestral foundation, so it was no wonder that their family business was very large. In her previous life, she would be dazzled by these things, and even if she had to be a servant or a dog for others, dependent on others, and barely survive, she still wanted to go back.
However, she didn't know that when the prosperity was gone, what she gained were indeed these superficially glamorous things, but what she lost was even more. She lost her time, her youth, her life, and finally her own life.
She took a deep breath, picked out some high-quality clothes, found a snakeskin bag, and stuffed all the clothes into it.
Then she simply carried the bag on her shoulders and walked out while it was still a little dark outside.
She wouldn't tear down Lan Ping's house, would she? A neighbor poked his head out of the house and said, "Such a big bag, I don't know what's in it, is it money?"
With a slap, the person who spoke was slapped by his own mother.
"What money? What money does their family have? All the money was taken away by that heartless Liu Zongguang. If they really had money, would that little girl still want to go back to the Xu family?"
"That's right." The person who spoke touched his aching head and said, "The Zhou family is extremely poor now. Teacher Zhou is unlucky, and so is the girl in her family. She was a good rich girl, but now she has been reduced to her original state." However, if it were him, he would not want to do that either.
"What's wrong with Teacher Zhou?" The old lady slapped her son again. "You're a scornful person who loves wealth. God is watching. If that girl has a conscience and knows that her mother is a good person and has had a hard life, her future won't be too bad. Teacher Zhou is a teacher. How can the children she taught be bad? But if someone is heartless and abandons their own mother and doesn't support her, he will be punished by God sooner or later."
She said it unintentionally, but if Liu Jing was there, she would listen with intent.
At this time, Liu Liang, who had already suffered divine punishment, had already walked to the station carrying a snakeskin bag.
"Little girl, why are you carrying such a big bag?" When the ticket seller saw Liu Jing carrying a bag that was almost taller than himself, he hurried to help.
"No need, sister. This is too heavy."
Liu Liang hurriedly grabbed the bag and didn't dare to let go. It was really heavy.
The ticket seller, who was in his thirties, was so happy to hear the word "sister" that he was even more enthusiastic and wanted to help Liu Liang with the bag. As a result, she lifted it up.
The bag didn't even move.
It must be because she didn't move her posture just now. She didn't believe it, so she reached up with both hands again. This time she managed to lift it, but she used all her strength, but the bag was still heavy and she couldn't lift it.
This is embarrassing.
"Sister, let me do it. We are from the countryside and have more strength."
Liu Jing picked up the snakeskin bag with one hand and walked into the car.
The ticket seller squeezed her wrist. It seemed that she was too weak. Such a small girl was stronger than her.
Liu Liang put the snakeskin bag at the back of the car and sat in the last parking space. The ticket was not expensive, and it only cost two yuan to get her to where she wanted to go.
Not long after, all kinds of people got into the car, and next to her sat a woman holding a child. The child looked a little listless and not in good condition.
Is this a disease?
You can tell from his face.
The woman couldn't help but smile embarrassedly when she saw Liu Jing looking at her from time to time. "The child is sick, so he might be a little noisy."
"It's okay." Liu Liang smiled at the woman, but the curve of her lips was a little stiff. She touched the corners of her lips. In fact, she had forgotten how long it had been since she had smiled sincerely. Not to mention her previous life, she had never been happy for a single day. Perhaps her real happiness was when she was back to Zhou Lanping. She was like this at that time, willful, wanton, and prone to temper. She let out the temper of a young lady to the fullest. Compared with Xu Jiajia, the real young lady, she was more like a young lady.
Later, she lived a humble and self-abased life. No one smiled at her sincerely, and no one she wanted to smile at sincerely.
The woman held the child and coaxed him from time to time. The child's face was a little red, and even his crying was very hoarse. The ticket seller kindly poured some hot water for the woman and asked her to feed the child.
People at that time were simple and innocent. They were not as crooked as those people in later times. They did not dare to help an old man lying on the ground. There were not so many extramarital affairs. People were still simple and lovely.
The woman carefully fed the child water. After the child drank a few sips, he stopped making noises. His little face was rosy and his eyelashes were very long. However, his little mouth was very dry, not as rosy as other children's.
Suddenly, Liu Jing felt a warmth in her hand. When she looked down, she saw the child stretching out a small hand, which was very small, soft and warm.
She gently touched the little hand, and the child instinctively held her fingers tightly, just like when she was in the hospital, whenever she felt pain, she would grab her mother's hand. She was afraid that she would never wake up after falling asleep, and she was afraid that she would never be able to open her eyes again after falling asleep, so she needed warmth and the strength to pull her back from hell.
