Chapter 117 The Past
"Student Shen, I meet you again."
As soon as the two walked into the cafeteria, they ran into Wu Jie.
Wu Jie pushed his glasses, greeted Shen Xiaoyue, and smiled at her, ignoring Lu Pingan next to him the whole time.
"No? Why is this person haunting us?"
When Lu Pingan saw him, he instantly got furious, quickly shortened the distance between them, and very deliberately took Shen Xiaoyue's hand.
After Wu Jie left, he immediately looked at Shen Xiaoyue angrily, grabbed her hand and asked her to give an explanation: "How did he know your name!"
Shen Xiaoyue held her forehead with her hand, forgetting to mention this: "He is also an English major, a classmate of mine, and the monitor of our class."
Lu Pingan:! ! !
classmate? ? ?
Doesn't that mean we have to be together day and night? ? ?
Or the squad leader? ? ?
Isn't it unavoidable? ? ?
Lu Ping'an looked resentful, as if he wanted an explanation.
Shen Xiaoyue was silent, raised three fingers, and tried to open her eyes wide to appear more sincere: "I try not to contact him."
Lu Pingan looked at her angrily, reluctantly: "Can't we not contact each other?"
He knew he was being unreasonable.
But they are all men, and he knew what the man was up to the first time he saw him!
How despicable!
Men who attempt to destroy other people's families should be thrown into a pig cage!
…
A week passed peacefully. When Shen Xiaoyue and the other two returned to the dormitory, they found that Liu Ting, who usually stayed in the classroom, not only arrived at the dormitory before them, but was also lying on the bed sobbing quietly.
Fang Feifei froze in place, not knowing what to do.
Ever since I accidentally read Liu Ting’s subsidy application last time, she has become more silent. She doesn’t talk much in the dormitory and stays alone every day.
Although she was a little rounder than when school started, she was still thin and small, with rough yellow hair ends.
"Come in, what are you doing here?"
Su Mingzhu was blocked outside the door by her, so she simply pushed her. The moment Liu Ting heard the sound, she seemed to react and her sobbing stopped instantly.
"Oh, no."
Su Mingzhu scratched her head and glanced at Shen Xiaoyue. Shouldn't she have come in just now?
"Um, Liu Ting, what's wrong with you?"
Su Mingzhu asked cautiously.
She hardly spoke to Liu Ting.
When Liu Ting said she wanted to return the money for her quilt, she waved her hand and said, "It's not worth much. It's okay. Don't mind it."
Liu Ting's expression changed instantly, and she never took the initiative to talk to her again.
Liu Ting buried her face in the quilt, silent, only her slightly trembling shoulders proved that she was not asleep at all.
Several people looked at each other and gathered around Liu Ting's bed: "Liu Ting, if you don't mind, tell us and we will try our best to help."
"Yes, even if we can't solve it, tell us and we can find a solution together."
"Yes, yes, we are all roommates, so please speak up if you have any difficulties."
I don’t know if it was the word “difficult” that touched her.
Liu Ting suddenly became sharp, straightened up, covered her face and broke down crying: "What's the point of me telling you, you don't understand at all, you have never worried about food and clothing since you were young, what problem can I solve by telling you?"
"You, Miss Su, just say you don't want such an expensive quilt. This quilt can pay for my food for several months, but in your eyes it is worthless."
"You should have been laughing secretly when you saw me building it. Something you don't want is being held as a treasure by others."
"Whatever you want, your parents will arrange it for you. How can you understand how I feel?"
"Have you ever experienced the feeling of having no food to eat and having to eat only tree bark?"
"Do you know how cold it is to cover yourself with a thin blanket in a temperature of several degrees below zero?"
"This 25 yuan may not be worth much to you, but it is life-saving money to me! With this money, I can bring my grandma to the city!!!"
“You just don’t understand!”
Liu Ting was only concerned with venting her emotions, even though she knew Su Mingzhu didn't mean that. But her inferiority complex was like a balloon filled with air. If it was poked just a little, her inferiority complex would collapse and vent everywhere.
Su Mingzhu, who was named, was at a loss and looked at Shen Xiaoyue as if asking for help.
Shen Xiaoyue's heart sank. From what Liu Ting said, it seemed that she did not receive the hardship allowance. The general allowance was a full ten yuan less than the hardship allowance. Many families might not even have ten yuan for food in a month.
The last time she heard Wu Jie talking to another boy, she paid special attention to it. Although the boy's clothes were not luxurious, they were clean and tidy, and there were no patches on them, so it should not be his turn.
"Don't worry, just tell us slowly, okay? If there is any unfairness, we will go with you to report it to the teacher, okay?"
After Liu Ting vented her anger, she regained her sanity.
Seeing the concern in the eyes of her three roommates, and even the Su Mingzhu whom she had just mentioned did not have any bad emotions in her eyes, she felt that she was a very bad person again.
She should obviously be grateful to Su Mingzhu, but she couldn't help but compare and hate her.
Why are some people favored from birth?
Why can some people live every day without worries?
But these ideas went against what her grandmother taught her.
She felt guilty towards her grandmother, but she couldn't control the negative emotions growing in her heart.
Just stay away from people in the dormitory.
She had just received the news that the college entrance examination had been resumed. While selling vegetables, she heard others say that there were subsidies for universities, so she studied very hard, sleeping only three hours a night and getting up before dawn to go to the market to sell the vegetables she grew.
Finally passed the exam.
She asked around and found out that because the college entrance examination had been resumed, many people with families would privately contact others to rent a house. If she just saved a little more money, she could bring her grandmother over as well.
She stared at the three roommates in front of her, with whom she had hardly spoken a word since the beginning of the school year.
She had no other choice but to believe them.
"I...my parents died a long time ago."
Liu Ting's life was bitter, but she was able to taste some sweetness because of her grandmother's company.
When she was very young, her parents died unexpectedly. Her grandmother raised her alone and sent her to school. In that era when education was optional, her grandmother insisted on sending her to school.
She often heard her grandmother say: "Nannan, girls must study. Don't listen to others saying that girls without talent are virtuous. That's all nonsense."
While her grandmother was braiding her hair, she was humming a ballad softly.
She heard from others that her grandmother used to be the eldest daughter of a wealthy family.
Her grandmother was different from other people in the village. She could read and embroider beautiful flowers. She kept the house clean and tidy, and she would wear a flower on her head. She was keen to accept new things and could even speak a few foreign words.
Others call her grandma witch.
They said that my grandmother's family background was not good, so they looked at her in a rude manner.
It was clear that her grandmother had never hurt anyone. She only knew that she and her grandmother had lived in this village as far as she could remember.
She thinks her grandmother is the most amazing and special person in the world.
