Chapter 621 621. Tian Tian’s little thoughts
Shangtang Village.
At noon in summer, when the sun is scorching, I don’t even scream much anymore. The roar of a motorcycle came from the end of the village. The daughter of Lao Tian's family, wearing a hat and covering her face with a gauze, came back like a gust of wind.
When Tian Tianma heard the noise, she rolled over and sat up, quickly got up from the mat, and rushed out while waving her fan, with a hopeful look on her face:
“How is it?”
Tian Tian took off his hat, his cheeks were all red. He immediately rushed to the faucet to wash his face, and said vaguely:
“Not so good.”
What do you mean by this, can a mother not hear it?
At this moment, his face suddenly looked lonely: "I specifically asked people not to talk about our bodies, why can't I do this?"
Tian Tian wiped the water droplets nonchalantly: "What's there to hide? I didn't know it during the blind date, how can I not know it when we chat later? Don't end up being criticized by others as a matchmaker."
She knew what her mother meant. Didn't she just think that her father's poor health was hindering her in dating?
It is impossible to say that there is no impact, but the problem is that Tian Tian is not in a hurry about this matter.
When she was a daughter, she could take care of the family openly and honestly at home, but after she got married, she would have to be around her parents' house every day. No matter how reasonable people were, they would have objections, so it would be better not to get married yet.
The reason why Tian Tian agreed to the blind date was because Tian Tian also had selfish motives——
Her father was repairing fruit trees for others last year. A branch got stuck in the tree and did not fall off. As a result, someone passed by and accidentally hit his eye.
I didn’t have much money to begin with, but now I lost everything.
Originally I thought that as long as people are good, I can earn money slowly. After he stopped thinking about it, his father seemed to finally feel relieved. His blood pressure soared and he almost had a stroke!
When I go to the hospital, I have to be taken to a large hospital in the provincial capital and have to recover... Even if I have medical insurance, I still owe tens of thousands of dollars after this.
Not only that, Tian Tian took too long to take leave and lost her job in clothing sales in the city.
Finally she got home and settled down. Her mother was exhausted mentally and physically during this period, and she also fell down. She was receiving infusions and recuperating, so she was able to do some small work.
The family lacked two strong laborers, and her father had to be taken care of, so the fields couldn't be cultivated. Tian Tian thought about it and decided to stay at home.
Just before this holiday, Tian Tian went to a parent-teacher meeting at her younger brother’s school in the city.
It was a key high school. Every year, about a dozen students entered the top colleges. The teacher’s words were also very sincere:
“…Those who have very good grades and are ranked in the top 50 in their grades… their English is really poor, parents should think of a solution, otherwise it would be a pity…”
As for rural children, it is normal for them to be exposed to English only in junior high school, and it is also normal for them to fall behind.
Tian Tian’s younger brother Tian Tian was only in his first year of high school and had no time to make amends.
But now, cram schools are no longer allowed, and schools no longer provide make-up classes. If you want to improve your grades, you have to find connections with acquaintances to sneak into such small classes...
Especially for rural children, tutoring during holidays is a big expense, whether it’s food, accommodation or tutoring fees.
One pile at a time…
Tian Tian’s selfish intention is: blind dates in the countryside progress very quickly. If they get along well, they can come and look after the house after three or five dates.
According to the rules, the man has to give ten thousand and one yuan, which means he will choose one in ten thousand.
If possible, she would like to use this money to pay for tutoring fees and living expenses for her brother.
However, just thinking about it, I am not selfless enough to gamble my whole life on this. No, if we didn’t talk about it and achieved it, we didn’t talk about it, so forget it. Think of other ways.
The problem now is that cram schools are waiting for no one!
Where does the money come from? I’m really worried.
The reason why Tian Tian’s mother asked the matchmaker to hide the situation at home was because her daughter was so good. If someone fell in love with her, their parents would definitely not be a drag on their daughter...
Otherwise, many people might not agree when they hear about the mess going on in this family.
Just as he was talking, a boy about 1.7 meters tall came out of the room. He smiled and showed the dimples on his cheeks: "Sister, don't worry about the cram school. I can learn on my own."
“Besides, I plan to graduate from college and go to the junior high school in our town to be a teacher. It will be convenient for me to take care of my parents then. It doesn’t matter whether I have a 211 or not.”
If the tuition for junior college wasn't too expensive, he would have just wanted to go to junior college.
Tian Tian shook his head: "I saw people talking specifically about this application, saying that the teaching industry is very complicated now. There are dozens of normal colleges in one province, and the academic requirements for teachers are getting higher and higher, and it's still tiring..."
Tian Tian’s mother felt sour in her heart and couldn’t help but said bitterly: “If we hadn’t been in poor health...”
“It’s okay! Mom, why do you think so much? Take good care of your body with my dad, that’s better than anything else.”
"Besides, I didn't go in vain today. There is an old Song family in Yunqiao Village. I heard that the girl from that family graduated from college and is very capable!"
“I spent tens of millions on Baoshan when I returned home. Experts who have been on CCTV gave me step-by-step guidance on farming! On a hot day, a pound of watermelon sells for twenty, and some people grab it.”
“Oh my God!”
Tian Tian’s mother’s eyes widened instantly: “Is it true or not?”
"Really! I ate that watermelon. If I have money, I'm willing to buy not only 21 jins, but 41 jins!"
Tian Tian's mother reacted: "Have you eaten? The one who served you? Isn't that very considerate? Why didn't it happen?"
Taking Tian Tian’s mother’s simple thought: The thoughtfulness shown during the blind date proves that his family is very sincere, so why not? Where can't it work?
“People can’t do it.”
“The uncle and aunt in that family are quite nice. They are very warm to me. They are constantly adding food to me during meals. They also take great care in cleaning the house—it’s really nice.”
From a family perspective, such parents-in-law are really good.
but…
Tian Tian told the truth: "That man is not very discerning, he doesn't seem to be very good at work, and he is not very worldly - and he wants to stay in Bay City, so I definitely can't do it."
Tian Tian’s mother was still a little regretful: “Boys, it’s okay to be a little naive and a little honest... The matchmaker said that his family is reasonable and generous, and they are not the kind of picky people.”
Tian Tian still shook his head: "It really doesn't work. It's not a matter of being honest, it's a matter of not paying attention."
“I heard that you can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month in Bay City, and you can also work in sales. However, you don’t have a good look or a person who is worldly... Then you must not care.”
"If he doesn't care about his parents' hometown, how can he think highly of me? Can he take care of his family? I don't think he can even take care of his own family... let's forget it."
Tiantian’s mother sighed.
Then Tian Tian shook her phone again: "I just happened to meet someone driving an excavator today. I left a phone number. I will contact you later to see if I can learn anything and give you some directions. We can make money at home. Point money."
Housekeeping is similar to an engagement. If you get engaged, you will receive this extra red envelope. The betrothal gift is calculated separately.
There are no purely noble people in my book. I hope that everyone will not have higher moral requirements for the characters than ordinary people.
The situation of the teaching industry is based on the analysis of teacher Zhang Xuefeng. Personally, I think it is very reasonable.
