The books selected by Li Jinfeng can be considered progressive books of that era, including "The Gadfly", "The Biography of Marx", "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" and "How the Steel Was Tempered".
Zhou Yu didn't have these books at home, and he was immediately attracted to them.
Only after Li Jinfeng finished cooking did Zhou Yu look away with a lingering look.
Li Jinfeng cooked a sumptuous meal at noon, so it was a little late when the meal was ready.
But just in time, when the meal was ready and everyone was seated, Xiaobao and Zhou Cheng arrived.
Li Jinfeng went to the kitchen to get bowls and chopsticks for them, and everyone sat down to eat together.
After dinner, Xiaobao pulled Li Jinfeng aside and told her about his trip to find some gangster kids.
"Sister, I have tied them up now, but I don't know what to do next! They said that unless I kill them, they will continue to steal, rob, and cheat. I can't really send them to the Public Security Bureau. They have done so many bad things, they will definitely be sent to labor reform.
Rehabilitation isn't necessarily a good thing for them. Without proper guidance, they'll continue to cheat and deceive people once they're released."
Xiaobao told Li Jinfeng his thoughts.
Li Jinfeng didn't say anything else, only asking, "Are you sure you want to get involved in this? Sometimes, if you don't take action, others won't mind. But if you do a good thing, even if it's only half done, it might be a bigger blow to them than if they had never met you. You know, the hardest thing in this world isn't getting something, but getting it and then losing it, or not getting it completely."
Li Jinfeng did not stop Xiaobao from helping others.
But she wanted to explain some things to Xiaobao.
Sometimes, doing good things does not necessarily bring good rewards.
"Besides, even if you help them, they may not appreciate it. They might even think you are meddling in their affairs."
Xiaobao has considered everything Li Jinfeng said.
"I don't just want to do good things, I just feel... I'm luckier than them! If I hadn't met my sister, I might have ended up like them..."
"No, Xiaobao, you are different from them. Even if you hadn't met me, you would not become like them."
Although the situation forces us to do so, not everyone will survive by bullying the weak like those children.
There is nothing wrong with wanting to live, but if you have to use that method, even if you are alive, you will not be comfortable.
"Sister..." Xiaobao didn't know what to say at the moment, but deep down, he felt warm, a feeling of being trusted.
"Whatever you want to do, just do it. Just remember, you should be on guard against others, but you should not have the intention to harm others. Just don't think that everyone is too kind!" Li Jinfeng said.
Xiaobao nodded heavily: "Okay!"
"By the way, Xiaobao, do you...want to go to Tianjin?"
Xiaobao has a three-month vacation. He came back on New Year's Day and his vacation will not end until the end of April.
Li Jinfeng has been hesitating whether to let him go to Tianjin to take a look.
Maybe, if she's lucky, she can meet Zhang Lianfeng. If that person is Xiaobao's relative, then it would be like fulfilling Old Lady Zhang's wish.
Xiao Bao said, "I will do whatever my sister says."
"Then let's go after the New Year. I haven't found a job yet and the children will go to school again. You can ask Zhou Cheng if he wants to go back with you. His hometown is Tianjin." Li Jinfeng said.
"good!"
In the afternoon, Li Jinfeng and Zhou Yu continued to knit sweaters, while Xiaobao took Zhou Cheng to find those children.
