my return to life

"I've heard that someone is going to send us textbooks, desks and get us back to school."

Fang Nian nodded: "Yes, they said they would send [-] sets of desks."

"Little sister, what are you cooking?"

A large pot was placed on the firewood stove, and the lid was covered, and steam came out of it. According to Fang Nian's judgment, it should be cooking pig food.

Lu Weiyu had never seen this kind of thing, but Fang Nian had seen it a lot.

Sure enough, the little girl with bare feet replied: "Cook pig food."

"Big brother, are you from the city?"

The little girl chirped.

Maybe it was because they saw outsiders like Fang Nian and Lu Weiyu that they suddenly started talking more.

"Our teacher said that the city is very beautiful. There are no dirt roads, but concrete roads. Is that true?"

"Our teacher also said that if we study hard, we will have the opportunity to go to the city in the future."

"..."

Fang Nian replied one by one: "Yes, even if you go barefoot in the city, you won't step on gravel."

The little girl sighed vaguely: "But we don't have classrooms for classes now."

"Will you help us build new classrooms?"

Fang Nian didn't know the details, so he had to tell the truth: "I heard that there are, but if you have desks, you should have a place to go to school."

Just as he was talking, an old woman came out of the thatched cottage, probably hearing voices from outside.

He spoke a few words to the little girl in the local dialect, then looked at Fang Nian and Lu Weiyu, and said something.

The little girl said: "This is my grandma. Grandma is asking you, are you thirsty?"

Fang Nian waved his hand and said with a smile, "Grandma, we just happened to pass by."

Lu Weiyu also quickly bent over to say hello.

"Grandma asked if you want to sit in the house?" the little girl asked again.

Fang Nian waved his hand again and said with a smile, "No need to bother you, let's go now."

The old woman said something again, and the little girl relayed: "Grandma said that's not what she meant, you can be here if you want."

Then the little girl quickly ran into the house and brought out two small benches.

"Hey, sit down." The little girl smiled.

This time Fang Nian didn't refuse, he took the initiative to sit down, and asked Jiachang: "Little sister, tell your grandma, we are just curious about what you are doing, we haven't seen it before."

The little girl said: "Haven't seen this before? We have it here, don't you need to cook pig food in your city?"

This child's words made Lu Weiyu stunned.

She really hadn't seen it.

And I really don't know the process of raising pigs, let alone the process of "pig food" that is occasionally mentioned.

"Maybe it's not cooked with this kind of stuff." Fang Nian replied.

The little girl is very talkative, chatting about a lot of things.

Occasionally, he would use his black feet to draw on the ground while talking: "I just finished the first semester of the first grade and didn't go to school."

"I don't know if the next semester will be directly in the second grade."

Sometimes I think that a sentence is a sentence, and then I talk about other things.

Maybe it was Lu Weiyu's affinity, or Fang Nian's gentleness, or the sheer freshness that made the little girl want to say anything.

"The second baby next door is the same as me. At first he had no books to read, but after his mother took him to the county, he started to read again."

"If my parents are still there, maybe I can go to the county to study."

"Erwa hasn't come back for a long time. Look, there are spider webs on the gate of his house."

"..."

Lu Weiyu finally spoke, but asked, "Little sister, what's your name?"

The little girl blushed and said, "My name is Wu Chen."

"It's Dust of Dust, my grandfather gave me the name."

Lu Weiyu asked cautiously, "Then why don't you wear shoes?"

"It's summer now, you don't need to wear shoes." Wu Chen stretched his little feet when he said this.

Fang Nian interjected: "Just like when I was a child, I don't like wearing shoes in summer."

Wu Chen laughed 'goose': "cool off."

Fang Nian sighed: "I didn't like reading when I was a child, but I regretted it later. When the new classrooms in your school are built, you have to study hard."

Wu Chen pursed his lips: "That's for sure, I really like reading."

The clothes she wore were dirty for many years, and the original color could not be distinguished.

The hair is not long, and the whole body is dirty, looking like a tomboy.

These fall into Fang Nian's eyes without much feeling, this is the life of many rural children.

For example, Fang Xin was dirtier than Wu Chen two years ago.

Except that Wu Chen didn't have parents, and suddenly he didn't go to school, everything else was the same...

Chapter 164

After saying goodbye to little friend Wu Chen, Fang Nian and Lu Weiyu walked back to school.

She wishes there were books to read.

This hope is being realized.

Fang Nian will remember this little girl who is just like Heitan Fang Xin, but he will not have any thoughts of interfering in her life for the time being.

Because the current kid Wu Chen doesn't need extra help.

Although she has no shoes...

On the way, Lu Weiyu was a little silent. Things that seemed ordinary to many people had an impact on her.

She remembered some words, when people think that shoes are not good-looking, some people have no shoes to wear.

Although Lu Weiyu heard Fang Nian's conversation with Wu Chen nearby, she still felt the impact.

Fang Nian on the side could see that Lu Weiyu's mind was colliding sharply, but he had no intention of enlightening him.

Fang Nian wouldn't talk to Lu Weiyu about "reasons" and "appearing to be correct views".

Lu Weiyu, who has almost finished her university studies, has the ability to think independently.

If she thinks she can't get the answer and seeks Fang Nian's help, Fang Nian may say a word or two appropriately.

But if not, Fang Nian wouldn't care, even if Lu Weiyu looked uncomfortable.

What Fang Nian wanted to spend his whole life with was not Lu Weiyu who was influenced by him and eventually became what he wanted.

When he was about to enter the school playground, Lu Weiyu let out a long sigh: "I feel inexplicably sad."

Fang Nian groaned, but did not express the same emotion or relief.

Lu Weiyu didn't say any more.

…………

Soon after returning to the school playground, Wu Shufen began to arrange new things.

Volunteers like Fang Nian need to create a temporary donation site on the playground.

On the one hand, it is for documentary.

On the other hand, it is also for publicity.

Public welfare activities also need material to be reported.

After listening to the arrangement, Fang Nian waved to Lu Weiyu: "Xiaoyu, let's finish this side first."

Everyone is busy.

The morning passed quickly.

Lunch was arranged by the village head. Although the branch staff repeatedly emphasized, the lunch was still a bit rich, with chicken, duck and meat.

Ate in a classroom at school.

The conditions are much better than the bento boxes in Shanghai...

Two thirty in the afternoon.

On the simple donation platform in the school playground, large cards made in advance were moved up one by one, and the leaders of the branch and others donated them to the village head and the principal respectively.

Fang Nian finally knew the name of this elementary school——

Tangyang Primary School.

The end of the donation is a matter of course summary.

"...Our China Charity Shencheng Branch's public welfare activity to help out-of-school children return to school has been successfully completed with the help of people from all walks of life."

"Donate RMB 36 to build a new school building."

"There are a total of [-] sets of desks and [-] sets of stationery bags..."

"A few other supplies."

"Another 10 yuan will be used as a reward for poor students..."

"..."

The overall donation situation is better than Fang Nian imagined.

He didn't have the idea of ​​making extra preparations. If charitable organizations dare to take on this matter, they will usually be successful.

Moreover, the money and materials needed by Tangyang Primary School are not much, and it is not Fang Nian's turn to make unnecessary efforts.

Finally, the principal of Tangyang Primary School made a brief speech.

"This autumn and September, the new classroom of Tangyang Primary School welcomes everyone to come to unveil, thank you..."

"..."

Amidst the clapping applause, the donation activity came to a successful conclusion.

After the leaders left, Fang Nian and his volunteers cleaned up the scene.

It was obvious that Lu Weiyu was in a much better mood than in the morning.

Perhaps it is because of hearing these donation data.

Then there is the return trip.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the bus stopped at Shencheng People's Square.

After getting out of the car one by one, Wu Shufen said: "It's a bit late, I'll say a few more words."

"Thank you for your hard work for this event, see you in the future."

"I hope you kind-hearted children will have a good future."

"Thank you."

"..."

Amid the clapping applause and hustle and bustle, everyone dispersed.

Yes, as early as when she left Tangyang Primary School, Wu Shufen had already said that this volunteer activity has come to a successful conclusion.
