"How old are you? How much do you earn?"

Li Hui frowned and criticized: "You have to go to school well now and get into a good school in the future. Then you will find a job."

"Brother Dorje had already married someone else at that time!"

Xiaohua cried and argued: "I need to make money quickly to buy a sheep, so that Aunt Lancuo will agree to our marriage."

Everyone: "..."

"You kid... I'm just talking."

Li Hui didn't know how to persuade her, "Even if you save as many sheep as she wants, she won't allow her son to be with you."

"Will not!"

Xiaohua didn't believe Li Hui's words at all, and was very firm, "Aunt Lancuo said, as long as there are fifty sheep, it will be fine."

Everyone felt a headache, this girl was only half-listening to what she was told.

People said that fifty sheep made her quit in spite of difficulties.

The most fundamental reason is that Xiaohua's natal family is in a mess.

Especially Li Jun's father, people don't want to get involved with a slutty in-law.

This kid thought he could get married if he had a sheep.

How naive.

Li Hui persuaded her for a long time, but Xiaohua just wanted to work to make money.

"Okay, you're going to work, right?"

Xia Chutang sat down with a pen and paper and asked the village chief: "How much does a sheep cost now?"

"A live sheep costs 500 yuan," the village chief replied.

"A sheep costs 500 yuan. People say we need 50." Xia Chutang listed the numbers on the paper: "You have to earn yuan."

Xiaohua had no idea about numbers at all. After hearing this, her eyes became more determined, "Then I will earn so much to buy sheep."

The village chief laughed in anger: "With all your ability, do you think it's so easy to earn tens of thousands of dollars?"

"You don't know anything now and you are young. When you go out to work, you either serve dishes or wash dishes and vegetables... You can earn up to 150 yuan a month."

Xia Chutang continued to settle accounts: "Even if you don't eat or drink, it will take at least 14 years to save all this money."

"Ten...fourteen years?"

Xiaohua's eyes widened, completely unable to accept this time span.

"Yeah, this is still the best situation."

Xia Chutang looked at the little girl and said, "If you go to school and get admitted to university, buying a sheep can be realized sooner."

"How many years will it take?" Xiaohua asked.

Xia Chutang scribbled on the paper again and replied, "About seven or eight years ago."

"It's been so long. I've waited until I've bought enough sheep. I don't know if Brother Dorje can wait for me..."

"..."

The policeman on the side couldn't bear to listen and came over and said: "Little girl, if you go to work now, no one will dare to hire you. You are too young and it is illegal to hire you."

"You mean, I can't make any money?"

"You will definitely not make any money, and you may even meet bad people. When the time comes, I will sell you to a farther and poorer place to become someone else's wife."

"what……"

Lu Chengyuan also spoke at the right time, "You can either go to a boarding school in the township, or... stay here. Do you think about it?"

"I won't stay."

Xiaohua immediately rejected this choice and asked: "Then I go to school, will there be food to eat?"

The policeman smiled and said, "Don't worry, the school has a canteen, so you can have enough food."

Upon hearing this answer, Xiaohua almost did not hesitate and immediately agreed: "I will go to school."

"Then you pack your luggage and I'll pick you up in a few days?"

The police thought they needed some time to say goodbye to the children and their families.

Xiaohua quickly grabbed the policeman's sleeve and begged: "Uncle, I have no luggage, please send me away now. When my father wakes up, I won't be able to leave."

"Comrade police, please help me and send this child to school."

Li Hui was already extremely disappointed with her brother, "If my brother wakes up, this child may not be able to go to school happily."

"Officer Du, let's go out and talk about something." Lu Chengyuan called the police outside.

Xia Chutang immediately pricked up her ears, and her extraordinary hearing made her hear what the two said clearly as if she were standing outside.

"Officer Du, here are three hundred dollars."

Lu Chengyuan took out all the money he had in his pocket and "paid the tuition and accommodation fees for that little girl."

Officer Du took the money and said with a smile: "Why don't you give it inside? It can also make people remember your kindness."

"It's a small thing, I don't want to burden them."

Lu Chengyuan chuckled and laughed at himself: "Besides, I told you I didn't bring any money."

When Wang Mazi was returning the deposit just now, the village chief asked Lu Chengyuan to borrow money, but he refused directly because he didn't have any money.

"I understand, I can't help if I have some help." Officer Du understood the man's intentions very well.

I can help the little girl with her schooling.

But that scumbag dad can never help with refunding people's deposits.

Otherwise, scoundrels like Li Jun will repeat their old tricks and ask people to help him cover up without any bottom line or restrictions.

"Just say it's a subsidy given by the school to poor students." Lu Chengyuan warned again.

Hearing this, Xia Chutang sighed secretly: her family owed Lu Chengyuan another favor.

If this continues, she will never be able to repay the debt by making breakfast for Lu Chengyuan for the rest of her life.

"And one more thing."

After Officer Du came in, he asked, "What is this little girl's name? She needs a household registration certificate to go to school."

The village chief shook his head, "This child has always been called Petunia, but I haven't heard of his nickname. Petunia, what was your father's nickname for you?"

"I don't know..." The little girl's eyes were filled with confusion.

"Then get one quickly."

The police said, "Otherwise, my son will not be able to go to school."

Li Hui asked for help and looked at Lu Chengyuan, "Doctor Lu, you are highly educated, why don't you help name the child?"

"Auntie, my name is inappropriate."

Lu Chengyuan declined politely and smiled: "Your literary talent is very good, and you are her aunt. You can choose one."

Li Hui: "This..."

"Auntie, please give me a name."

Xiaohua tugged on Li Hui's clothes and begged pitifully.

Li Hui took paper and pen, thought for a while, and wrote: Li Jiaruo.

"Good luck and good wishes."

Li Hui handed the name to the little girl, "My aunt gave me this name. I hope you will always be beautiful, kind and happy."

"Li Jiaruo?"

The little girl was illiterate, so she muttered and repeated, nodding: "Auntie, I like this name."

This name sounds better than morning glory.

The two police officers took Xiaohua into the car and left, sending her to the nearest boarding school.

Before leaving, Li Hui thought about asking her to say goodbye to her brother at home, but Xiaohua refused.

As for the sleeping man on the stool, the little girl didn't even look at him.

Xiaohua made good arrangements, and the village chief smoked a dry smoke and worried: "Sister, this little flower has been sent to school. Then Li Jun has a baby at home, what do you think we should do?"

Following Li Jun, a lazy guy, that kid named Sui Sui will definitely have a hard time.

"Tangtang, can you go and bring that child over?"

Li Hui glanced at the sky outside and said, "It's almost night, so there's nothing wrong with the child alone."

Lu Chengyuan stood up and stayed with the girl: "I'll go with you."

The two people walked very quickly and arrived at Li Jun's shabby yard in a few minutes.

When they arrived outside the dilapidated courtyard wall, they saw the dirty child leaning in front of the door of the adobe house, sleeping with his head tilted.

He was still holding half-eaten rice dumplings in his hands.

Xia Chutang coughed twice, waking up the child.

He stood up and looked warily at the two people standing outside the courtyard, and asked, "Where is my father?"
