C42 The Dream of Being Poor at Home

Li Ying held the book in his hand tightly and looked at Su Jianguo. "Comrade, if you continue to be so absent-minded and careless, you will indeed become a scrap metal. However. . . If you can choose to work hard and persist, the light will come back. Although I do not know what you have encountered. . . But. . . "

Li Ying's eyes were filled with hope and determination," If I were you. . . Even if I can't achieve my goal in one go, or achieve my dream, Even if it's a gradual process, even if it's a curve. . . I'm willing to get closer to my dream bit by bit. Even if it's poverty, as long as I can still eat. . . As long as I have a roof tile to cover my body, I won't give up on my initial dream. "

Li Ying looked at Su Jianguo with a resolute tone. "When people say that they will not change their initial heart, they will always be able to do so. They will only know what they want. Only when one understands what one needs to do will one be happy. Those who knew how to do it, even if there were thousands of obstacles ahead. . . Even if there were thousands of mountains and rivers, they had to keep going. This was the spirit of Mountain Mover. Only by not changing one's original heart can one obtain the answer from the beginning. "

Li Ying looked at Su Jianguo and said earnestly and expectantly, "I see that your school emblem looks like a student from a railway technical school. It's a very good school. I also want to take the exam for this technical school. But my home is not rich. I am a girl, Even though my parents support me in my studies, I am unable to get into university. My parents chose my brother to study. But. . . "

Li Ying cheerfully waved the book in his hand," But even if I work in the factory during the day, I will still study at night, and it took me a year. When I paid my parents, I also used my pocket money to buy the railway technology book that I wanted to see the most. This comrade. . . If I were to say that I was poor, it would take me a year to buy a book. I'll have to bear the daily expenses of my parents and brother, and I might be even poorer than you. But I don't blame the heavens for what I've done. And I don't cry for what I've done. "

Li Ying proudly hugged the book in his arms, "I believe that there are miracles in the world. And this miracle is the me who grinds the iron pestle into a needle. I believe that as long as I persist, I will not give up. . . One year, two years. . . Ten years, I persist. I will eventually realize my dream. Even if my dream is very slow, as long as I think about it, it will eventually come true. I will be happy. "

Li Ying handed "How to Refined Steel back to Su Jianguo. So, comrade, please accept my book. I feel that it is fun to help others, but more importantly, if you are willing, can you exchange it with the books you have read for me?"

Li Ying bared his teeth and displayed his clever side. "I think it won't be difficult for you, right?"

Su Jianguo looked at the delicate looking girl in front of him. Her cheerful attitude, her sunshine, and her encouragement to him made him feel as if his heart, which had come to an end, had suddenly been rekindled, and he became moved and bright.

At this moment, Su Jianguo was a little shy. Because a girl was stronger than him.

It was even easier. Because this girl was clever enough to ask him if he was willing to share the books, he seemed to see hope.

Perhaps it was just as this girl had said, his life wasn't that bad, perhaps he still had a chance, a chance to persist in his heart, and a chance to realize his dream.

So, it was foolish to give up now. It was cowardice.

Yeah, he was sad for a few days, but he didn't expect to be easily convinced by a girl.

Although it was surprising, even a rational man like him couldn't believe it. However. . . Sometimes, a hope was like a ray of hope, always inadvertently entering one's life, making one suddenly wake up and suddenly wake up.

"What. . . What is your name?" Su Jianguo looked at this girl. He thought that he wished to know this sun-like girl, the girl who brought him light.

"Li Ying, Tong Lu. " Li Ying smiled cheerfully. "Did you agree?"

"Tong Lu?" Su Jianguo looked at the girl and recalled that she seemed to be a girl from the neighboring village.

The last time he went to the neighboring village for a blind date, he had seen this girl before. She seemed to be friends with Wei Fang?

However, he remembered that among the people his mother had arranged for him, there was a girl who happened to be called Li Ying.

"What a coincidence, I'm also Tong Lu's. " For some reason, Su Jianguo was actually looking forward to it.

Could it be that. . . After he lost his soul for a day, the girl he met by chance was the person he had decided to meet?

Could it be that the coincidence happened to him so accurately and accurately?

"Ah? Such a coincidence? Then can I learn railway technology from you? " Li Ying grinned.

"Sure. " Su Jianguo tilted his head and looked at Li Ying. "Are you planning to go home now?"

"Mhm, I'm planning to go home. Are you going back to Tong Lu as well?" Li Ying asked curiously.

"Yes, I'm going back to Tong Lu today. Let's go together. " Fortunately, Su Jianguo was preparing to stay for the next few days, so he could go home and prepare.

"That's great. I can ask you as I walk?" Li Ying asked without any hesitation.

"Sure. " Su Jianguo nodded. This was the first time he, who was not good with words, was anxious for himself. He did not know what to do. He was talking to a girl.

"What's your name?" Li Ying asked curiously.

"Su Jianguo. " Su Jianguo's words caused Li Ying to open his mouth wide.

"Ah. . . It's you. . . " Li Ying's quick-witted eyes rolled around. "I've seen you before. "

"Where's Wei Fang?" Su Jianguo asked without thinking.

"Mhm, there. In other words, you are truly capable. Fangfang is our village's flower. You actually didn't even look at her, making her so angry. . . Hehe. . . " Li Ying covered her mouth and laughed as soon as she thought about it.

"What's the use of being beautiful?" Su Jianguo liked Li Ying's smile very much. It was refreshing and cute at the same time.

"Of course it's useful. Fang Fangfang had been praised by the boys since she was young. There's still a lot of candy. " Li Ying said enviously, "How nice would it be if I could be the center of attention too? Sigh, fate is different. I don't think too much about it. "

"Are you really envious of her?" Su Jianguo looked at Li Ying doubtfully. He did not understand the mentality of a girl.

"I'm really envious of her. You don't know, if a boy complimented me, I would be happy as well. I would be happy for the whole day. Sigh, since I was young, I could only hug my book and sit by the side. I watched Fang Fangfang talk to the boys. It's really interesting to watch the boys laugh and say nice things. " Li Ying laughed.

"That's quite a lively scene. You're not bad looking. Don't you have any boys to flatter you? " Su Jianguo did not know why, but after saying this, his heart started beating faster.

"Me?" Li Ying smiled as he hugged his book tightly. "I want to find a boy with the same ideals. Different paths do not work together, and there are not many words to say. I am an unusual person in our village, and they don't like girls like me who only study. "

" Really? They don't have good taste. " Su Jianguo smiled. It seemed like he still had a chance.

Opportunity? Su Jianguo blushed. What was he thinking? The girl he had met for the first time actually had such an idea.

"That's right. I always felt that they had no foresight. On the walls of our village, it's written that you should learn mathematics and physics well. You won't be afraid even if you travel the world. People say that reading can change one's fate, it's because they don't understand the importance of knowledge. However. . . Our family is poor. . . Our younger brother is about to say that he's a wife. . . " Li Ying sighed.

Her younger brother was nineteen years old. She was only twenty years old. Even if she was only one year older than her younger brother, she still had to tell her younger brother a wife and get a wife.

"My parents want to give me a good family, earn some betrothal gifts, and marry my brother. Sigh. . . I guess I'm like this. There aren't many boys in our village and the neighboring village who value me. " Li Ying swung his ponytail. "But who cares? As long as I'm happy on my own. "

"Is the price of the betrothal gifts your parents want very high?" Su Jianguo's heart started beating faster. This time, it was not because he was moved, but because he was nervous. After all, the last time he had an argument with Wei Fang, it was because of the betrothal gifts.

"Mhm, I want more than Wei Fang. " Li Ying stuck out his tongue. "Sigh, I don't even think I can sell that much. "

The two of them sat on the bus and said with smiles on their faces.

Su Jianguo looked at Li Ying. This girl was even taller than Wei Fang's betrothal gifts. But why was it that this time, he did not reject her at all?

"You. . . Like the new string 300 series?" Just as Su Jianguo was in a daze, Li Ying curiously asked.

"I've seen this before. What's the matter?" Su Jianguo looked at Li Ying doubtfully.

"You should have seen a lot in Hangzhou's railway technical school, right? Can you tell me?" Li Ying took out a big candy from his pocket, "This is my gift, how about it?"

"You like trains?" Su Jianguo looked at Li Ying and asked curiously, "Yes, I like trains. Although my mother said that it's very low for a girl like me to rely on a railway technical school, I still like it. "

"Then do you know electricity?" Su Jianguo asked doubtfully.

"Electricity? My dad is an electrician. Since childhood, I have been following my dad everywhere to help people repair electrical wires. I know a little about this. " Li Ying's words caused Su Jianguo's eyes to light up.

Old electrician? Coincidentally, he still had some knowledge on theses that he did not understand. Maybe. . . He could ask Li Ying's father.

But how could he ask Li Ying's father? From what Li Ying said just now, her father didn't like her reading about railway technology.

"Wait a minute. . . I remember who you are!" Li Ying's eyes lit up. "I heard from Fang Fangfang that you're going to be a teacher at the railway technical school soon! Is that so? "

"Mmm. " Su Jianguo turned his head and looked at this cheerful girl. He was still thinking about his matter. Unexpectedly, this girl changed the topic so quickly.

"Then you must be a student of a lot of professors. Am I right?" Li Ying had a look of anticipation.

"Yes. " Su Jianguo asked, "What's the matter?"

"Then. . . Can you. . . Teach me?" Li Ying said in embarrassment.

"Teach you?" Su Jianguo looked at Li Ying curiously.

"Mhm, I will pay your tuition fees. Do you think it's okay? " Li Ying was really excited. If there was such a good teacher, perhaps her chances of getting into the railway technical school would be even higher.

"Use sugar?" Su Jianguo shook the sugar in his hand.

"No, I'm saying that I will pay the tuition fee. Really. " Li Ying wanted to take out the money, but Su Jianguo stopped him with a book.

"We'll talk about it when we reach Tong Lu. " Su Jianguo's eyes shifted. Perhaps he had a way to make both ends meet.

"Ah?" Li Ying had a puzzled expression.
