Chapter 78
"I'm much better already."
Ling Zheng put the dishes and chopsticks in place, and a strand of hair fell from her ears. She had a bad fight last night, and her face looked very haggard.
Cheng Xi looked at her for a while, and suddenly realized that Ling Zheng had lost some weight before the summer vacation, and she didn't seem to be in good spirits. "You can tell me now, I won't go back to Su City quietly any time."
I said, and even ran to deliver takeout."
"Delivering food is hard work, but it's more profitable." Ling Zheng sat next to her. She was obviously still as young as a flower, but she looked tired. "Without money, I won't be able to pay the tuition for the next semester."
Cheng Xi sat up straight at once, "Didn't you save more than 10,000 yuan part-time in the first half of the year, and you also received a scholarship of 7,000 to 8,000 yuan. You usually live frugally, but it's not enough to pay for tuition?"
Ling Zheng shook her head, her eyes turning gray, "When I returned to my hometown, all the money I saved was stolen by my brother and used to recharge games."
"Twenty thousand?" Cheng Xi gasped.
Ling Zheng smiled bitterly.
Cheng Xi was so angry, "You've worked so hard to earn tuition money. If I were you, I would beat him to death."
"I was so angry that I slapped him, but it made my parents feel bad. My mother even beat me up, saying that he was my brother and the family leader raised me so much, why did he spend some money on me?
, and also said that my brother is very good at playing games now, he can earn hundreds of dollars a month, and he will become a professional e-sports player in the future, and he is much more promising than me."
"fart".
Cheng Xi cursed, "There are so many people playing games nowadays. How many of them can become e-sports players? Isn't it amazing to earn a few hundred? You can just sell a few accounts."
Ling Zheng wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, pursed her lips and looked at the ceiling with a weak smile, "They can only see my brother in their eyes. He earns a hundred yuan, so they think their son is awesome. As for me, every time
When I go back for the holidays, buying things for them in large and small packages will only be too little and too inconvenient.
Yi, in their eyes, their daughters are losers. My tuition fees were used by my brother to play games. They never said they would compensate me a penny. They also asked me why I read so many books. Anyway, they are all women.
If you want to get married, you might as well join a factory early and earn money for my brother to buy a house."
Cheng Xi felt extremely distressed.
She had known about Ling Zheng's family situation for a long time. Her parents came from a small place and were extremely patriarchal. If Ling Zheng had not done very well that year and had earned tuition and transportation fees by working on her own during the summer, Ling Zheng would have even continued to study.
There are no university qualifications.
The reason why Cheng Xi and Ling Zheng became good friends was because they met while working part-time. In addition, both of them had unfortunate childhoods, so they seemed like two people with the same problem.
But Cheng Xi is much luckier than Ling Zheng.
At least she has a mother who still loves her no matter how poor she is.
Of course, Lingzheng's father is a steel factory worker in a small county, and he can get a salary of 10,000 yuan a month. With such a monthly salary, he can actually live well in a small place, but Lingzheng's parents are extremely patriarchal, and their son
He can spend extravagantly on his body and dote on him unconditionally, but he will not give up even a dime from his daughter.
Even since Ling Zheng could walk, she had helped with household chores and raising children.
As for Cheng Xi, her childhood was spent in the quarrels and violence of her parents. Later, when her parents finally divorced, she was freed.
"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" Cheng Xi said seriously, "We are good friends. If you have any difficulties, you can ask me for help. If you don't have tuition, I can borrow money. When I got married, from Cheng
I made a lot of money from my uncle, and I’m not short of money now.”
"I just thought that if I work hard, I can still earn tuition on my own."
Ling Zheng forced a smile, "Don't tell me, I almost earned more than four thousand, but after all the trouble last night, the company will definitely not pay me any more. It's close, just close."
"Don't worry, I'll lend it to you." Cheng Xi put her arm around her shoulders.
Ling Zheng smiled with red eyes, "Thank you, I will definitely pay you back in the future."
Cheng Xi comforted, "Don't say that, we are good friends. I believe that the current hardship is only temporary. One day, you will shine with your own glory."
Lingzheng looked back at her and suddenly said: "Xixi, you know, yesterday when I was climbing to the 50th floor, they called me and scolded me while I was walking. I almost cried at the time. I was thinking about the relationship between people.
