Forbidden place in mountain village: I taught children to catch ghosts and was exposed

"Mom, Goudaner, Goudaner is still young, if you ask him to work in the city, he won't dare to take him."

"Ms. Wu, I know you are doing it for the good of our dog, it's not that I don't let the dog go to school, look at my house, where can I support a child to go to school, just food and drink, it's almost not enough..."

"But even if the child goes out, he can only show his strength to others. Besides, he is only 12 years old, so he doesn't want it."

"Then ask him to help the family, his father has bad legs and feet, let him help, at least he won't be hungry, wait, let him go out to work hard for others to earn money"

"..."

In a barren mountain village deep in the mountains, Wu Nian stood outside an adobe house, talking earnestly with an aunt about his son going to work.

This is the seventh house he went to today, but none of them succeeded.

It is difficult for him to accept that the child will drop out of school and work in his teens.

In his opinion, children of this age should study happily in the classroom.

It's too early for them to work to earn money.

But he visited so many families in the past two days, no matter what he said, he couldn't persuade those stubborn parents to come down.

Even if their children cannot work, they still want their children to help at home, such as farming, chopping firewood, or herding sheep...

Originally there were still eighteen students, but in the past two days there are only ten left, and there may be fewer in the near future.

Looking at the eyes of the children who are eager to go to school, Wu Nian always feels like a knife is twisting in his heart.

He also knew that the villagers in the mountains were so poor that their children could only eat two meals a day, and they could only eat black-faced steamed buns for the two meals.

But he still feels that going to school is the way out for these children.

Wu Nian really wanted to help them, but he was just a small supporting teacher, and there was no way to keep them to study.

Walking out of Goudan'er's house, Wu Nian no longer had any desire to visit the next one.

Because it must be the same.

"Professor Wu……"

Just as he was about to leave, a few childish voices came from behind him.

"Goudaner, Mao Ni, Er Wazi... why are you here?"

Seeing the children who hadn't gone to school for the past few days, Wu Nian hurried forward to ask.

"Teacher, it's not that we don't ask you for leave, but... we can't go to school anymore..."

The children lowered their heads as if they had made a mistake, not daring to look at him.

But Wu Nian knew that this was not their fault.

"I know……"

Wu Nian squatted down and looked at a few people who were tanned, wearing gray cloth clothes that had been washed many times, and their eyes were red.

Although these children are naughty, they are very studious and sensible.

Similarly, they are full of desire to go to school.

But the poor Dashan had to let them take charge of the family early. Few people outside could understand their bitterness.

"Can you not go to work?"

Wu Nian patted the heads of Goudan'er and Mao Ni, and asked in an almost begging tone.

Several children just lowered their heads, but did not answer.

Wu Nian knew that he could no longer persuade them.

"Do you trust the teacher?"

Wu Nian thought about it, as if he had made some decision.

The children didn't know what Wu Nian meant, but they nodded firmly.

"You tell other students not to go to work recently, trust the teacher, the teacher will let you continue to study"

Wu Nian stared straight at the children, and spoke to them in an orderly tone.

"Well... we trust Teacher Wu, we won't leave"

Several children looked at each other, then nodded firmly.

They trusted Wu Nian even more than their own parents.

"You go back first, wait for me for a month, no, a week... After a week, I will be able to convince your parents to let you go back to school"

Wu Nian stood up, hugged the children, and let them go back.

Seeing the children turning their heads every three steps, he forced a smile.

Afterwards, Wu Nian walked out of the mountains and begged his parents.

I hope that I can take out the money my parents gave him to marry a wife and use it to help the children in the mountains.

Unsurprisingly, his request was rejected by his own parents.

But Wu Nian was not discouraged, instead he was soft and stubborn, and even forced himself to die. Finally, he managed to collect 5 yuan and brought it back to Dashan.

"Mom Goudan, you have to believe me. In less than a year, I will definitely let your children earn money while studying. This is regarded as a deposit. When your Goudan earns money, I will make money from it." buckle"

"Mao Ni's academic performance is very good, she will be useless as a part-time job. She can only earn 1 yuan a year at most. I will give you 5000 first, and give me a year. I will definitely let her study. make money on the side"

"Er Wazi, follow me, don't worry, if you don't make any money after a year, I won't take the money, and I will give it to you, how about it, give me a year..."

"..."

Wu Nian took the money and stuffed it one after another.

Almost every family received a payment of nearly 3000 yuan. In this way, Wu Nian insisted on keeping one after another children who were about to be dragged to work in the mountains.

Afterwards, Wu Nian was even more frugal, because he had to take care of the children's food and accommodation.

In addition, not only to teach them cultural lessons every day, but also to teach them to catch ghosts.

Time became even tighter.

This also caused Wu Nian to have no extra time to go outside to earn money.
