Chapter 8 Fight
When eating in the morning, Jiang Hongjing said, "Mom, I want to go to the city to learn sewing."

Wang Lirong put down her chopsticks, surprised: "What?"

"Learn to sew? Mom, why did you have such a big reaction?" Jiang Hongjing was puzzled.

"After the summer vacation, you go to school and learn sewing." Wang Lirong pulled her face down.

"Mom, I think it's better to learn some skills."

"What's the good of learning technology? In the past, when you got married, you still found workers. Look at the benefits of finding workers. Now those who are laid off are laid off, and those who don't have jobs don't have jobs."

"Look at Er Zhou's house next door. His mother is such a nice person. She married a worker back then. Look at him now, Er Zhou's father, who is laid off and doesn't do anything at home. His family is almost out of control."

"You see, your second uncle studied well at the time and passed the technical secondary school exam. Now, in the bank, how stable he is."

Here her tone softened: "Dad and Mom can earn a lot of money a day by delivering groceries. Listen to Mom and go to school after the summer vacation. Then you can get into a good university. Let Mom look good."

Jiang Hongjing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she dared to say that her mother hadn't given up on this idea yet. "Mom, it's not like you don't know that my brain is not good. There are Hongying and Hongzhi. They are smart and good at studying. It's enough to have them go to college."

Putting the bowl away, Wang Lirong said angrily, "It's their business for the two of them to go to college. In the future, they will live well. Both father and mother are dead. Who cares about you?" After speaking, he got up and left.

"Mom, don't be angry. If you want to be angry, you have to finish your meal first." Jiang Hongjing said loudly from behind.

"You've made me so mad, what are you eating?" Wang Lirong had already left the gate.

Jiang Hongjing hurried to chase and grabbed Wang Lirong's arm: "Mom, don't be angry, I know you are doing it for my own good."

Wang Lirong shook her arm, ignored her and continued walking.It was still early, and there were not many people on the street, and no one saw the mother and daughter who were arguing, otherwise someone in the village would have to talk again.

"Mom, don't be angry. Being angry is bad for your health." In her previous life, Wang Lirong's health was particularly bad, because she was angry when she was young.

"Then be obedient and go to school after the summer vacation begins."

Jiang Hongjing was silent. Do he really want to listen to his mother and go to school again?If I really went to school, the tuition fee of several thousand a year is still unaffordable based on my current income, and I will soon have to go to university. I'm going to fall into the vicious circle of borrowing money and paying back money.

She looked at the back of her mother in front of her, her hair was tied up in a mess behind her head, and it was still oily. She was busy at home these days, and she hadn't bothered to wash her hair.

No, no, absolutely can't go on like this, if it goes on like this, what's the point of her rebirth?

There is a river in front of the vegetable shed at home. Jiang Hongjing stands on the bridge and looks forward along the river. March is just the season for irrigation. The Yellow River has opened its gates. The khaki-colored water of the Yellow River rushes from east to west. All the rivers run from west to east and flow into the sea, but their river flows upstream from east to west.

Jiang Hongjing suddenly laughed at himself, even the river can go upstream, why can't he fight for it once?
On both sides of the river, the willow trees have sprouted and are green.

Jiang Hongjing's heart was also green, full of vitality and hope.

I originally planned that this life would be better than the previous life, if I just gave up like this, then what's the point of reliving it again?

Jiang Hongjing entered the shed, but Wang Lirong was not working, she was sitting on a stool in a daze.Jiang Hongjing breathed a sigh of relief, indicating that his mother's mood is still calm now.

"Mom." Jiang Hongjing called out.Wang Lirong looked up, but did not speak.

"Mom, I know you feel guilty that I didn't go to school, but I don't want to go to school. Do I?"

Wang Lirong's expression moved, but she didn't reply.

"Mom, it turns out that scholars, farmers, businessmen and commerce belonged to the lowest category of business, but that was the old society, and now it's a new society. Every time during the Chinese New Year, uncles and grandparents come to see grandma first, not aunts and grandma. Why? It's not because the second uncle is in the bank and the aunt is in the electricity bureau."

"If you think about it, when they came back, they said that the job in the bank or the electricity bureau was better. They were all talking about how much money my second uncle makes a month, and how much my aunt earns a month."

"Those grandpas and uncles are willing to visit grandma. When they leave, don't they take back more than they brought back?"

"And my aunt, obviously my father is my elder brother, why does she never come to see my father, instead she always goes to see my second uncle in the county, because every time she goes, she can do things that my second uncle can't use at home, clothes that he can't wear Take it back. It's not for money, what is it for?"

Wang Lirong's expression gradually eased, but Jiang Hongjing continued.

"We are all rural people. We don't care about the unit. As long as we can earn money, it is a good job."

"There are also people in the village. It turns out that our family is borrowing money. Who gave us a good face? Look, now, we bought a tricycle, and Dad delivers food every day. How long has it been? Who is not smiling to you and Dad? Greet you. Have your status and your father's status changed?"

"No, you and your father didn't go to work in the bank or the government. Just because our family's income has improved recently and we bought a tricycle, they changed their attitude."

"Then you said, this is in the countryside. They have no culture and don't understand anything. But what I want to tell you is that living is not just about saving face, it is about letting yourself buy clothes when you want, When we want to go to the restaurant, we go to the restaurant, even if someone is in trouble, we can reach out to help when we want to help."

Jiang Hongjing has been watching the changes in his mother's expression, from the initial unhappiness to the later thinking, and now the relief.

Her tone couldn't help softening: "Mom, you gave birth to me, don't you know what kind of person I am. Although I am not very smart, I am willing to work, capable and able to endure hardships."

In her previous life, her grades in the college entrance examination were not good, and she only went to a junior college, and the tuition fee was [-].At that time, the family had no savings.Just after the wheat harvest, three thousand catties of wheat were sold.At that time, the wheat was only [-] cents a catty, and all the three thousand catties of wheat sold were not enough for tuition fees, and the rest of the money was borrowed.

That would lend money to people, and whoever came up would say a blunt sentence, what kind of school do girls go to, and they don't do well in the exams.

Even the second uncle who usually helps them said, why not.

At that time, my father was shaken, and he also said that he should not go to it.

At that time, I was so stubborn that I wanted to go to this college no matter what.At that time, my mother supported me unconditionally, and all relatives and friends borrowed it and tasted all the ridicule.

Later, Jiang Hongjing regretted it very much. She thought many difficult nights, if she hadn't been so persistent in going to this college, would her life be different now?
