Chapter 12 Patriarchal Mom (12)
“Zhao Di, come here, mom.” Yin Yin beckoned to her.
The little girl came in and defended herself anxiously: “Mom, I didn’t steal money, I’m not a thief.” There was grievance in her words and expectation in her eyes. It doesn’t matter if others don’t believe her, she hopes her mother can believe it she.
Yin Yin pulled her into her arms and gently stroked her hair that was slightly yellow and dry due to malnutrition: “Zhao Di, you are mother’s daughter, mother believes in you, you are not a thief.”
“Really?” The little girl’s eyes suddenly lit up.
“real.”
Yin Yin looked at her sideways and asked softly, “Can you tell your mother, how can you have all that money?”
Mentioning the money, the little girl’s emotions visibly lowered, her eyelashes drooping slightly.
“Can’t you say it? If Zhao Di really doesn’t want to say it, mom won’t force you.” Everyone has little secrets in their hearts, and Yin Yin doesn’t want to get to the bottom of it even when facing a child.
“I bought the bottle in exchange for it.” Jiang Zhaodi whispered, she raised her head, her apricot eyes were misty, and there was a bit of anticipation in her tone, “I want to save money, I want to go to middle school, Mom, I like it read.”
Yin Yin and Teacher Lin were stunned for a moment. They never thought that the money was exchanged by picking up bottles.
Yin Yin resisted the choking in her throat and asked softly, “When did it start?”
Jiang Zhaodi nervously grabbed the white-washed skirt with her small hands, and whispered, “Since last semester, I, I would pick it up for half an hour every day after school, and sometimes I would pick it up when I got up early in the morning.”
“Mom, I know our family is poor, but I really like to study. I can save the tuition by myself. I’ve already saved 128 yuan and 60 cents.” The little girl’s eyes were red, even if she was bullied by Lin Rourou just now. When she was laughed at by the rest of the class, she didn’t cry. When it came to reading, her tears rolled down like crystal water droplets, making Yin Yin’s heart sour.
Jiang Zhaodi has been making mental preparations recently. How to tell her mother that she wants to continue studying, but she has not made up her mind. She is afraid of being rejected. For the sake of paying tuition, she will be able to continue her studies.
Teacher Lin, who was on the side, also gently echoed: “Mom Zhao Di, Zhao Di’s grades are very good, every exam is the first time in the class, she has no problem in the No. 1 Affiliated Middle School in S City. Our teacher also Hope she can keep reading.”
“You stupid child.” Yin Yin gently wiped the tears from her face with her fingertips, “Mom knows that my family is clever, and she originally planned to let you continue to study. The family is poor, but you like to read, then read it. I have already discussed with your father, let him come back to do a small business and make more money, you don’t need to pick up the bottle, just study hard.”
“Really?” The little girl’s eyes were misty, but brighter than ever.
“real.”
The little girl was assured, and she jumped into Yin Yin’s arms with joy: “Mom, I love you so much.”
Yin Yin hugged the little girl in her arms tightly, a slight smile appeared on the corners of her lips, and she couldn’t hide the doting in her eyes.
Teacher Lin also breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that parents support their children’s reading is the happiest thing for their teachers.
After discussing the child’s schooling, Yin Yin remembered another thing, and his face became serious.
