Happy life of a woman in the space apocalypse

Chapter 200: Mediocrity and Poverty Should Be Accepted

Yi Lingling once again lamented that the temperament these people exuded was different from that of the villagers, but she didn't dare to look at them for too long, as she always felt that the gaze of this person was murderous.

"Snakes are good things. Today I will let you taste some snake soup."

Unexpectedly, the two snakes won the unanimous love of several elderly people, especially Dr. Bai, who wanted to dismantle the snakes on the spot.

Only Ran Ruyi did not dare to get close and was forced to leave the yard. This gave Yi Lingling the opportunity to approach alone.

"Sister Ruyi, do you have any preparation books for the teacher exam?"

Ran Ruyi frowned and turned around. She really didn't want to have any more contact with this person.

"Without books, I probably can't escape the knowledge points in the usual books."

"So do you have high school textbooks? I want to study some in advance, maybe I can take the teacher exam with you."

The smile seemed innocent but the words were not innocent at all. Ran Ruyi simply shook her head and turned to look at the scenery of the mountains in the distance.

"No, that's right. Sister Ruyi has already graduated, so why would she move with her books? It would be great if I could find the textbooks. Since the last time I talked to you, I have an infinite desire to study."

"Very good, study hard and make progress every day."

The other party didn't continue the conversation, which made the atmosphere unharmonious. Yi Lingling rolled her eyes and brought up the topic again.

"Sister Ruyi, I actually want to be a police officer. It's more glorious to be a person who serves the people."

"There are many jobs that can serve the people, such as farming and sweeping the streets. It is better to serve where you are capable."

"But being able to fight criminals is even more powerful. I especially admire the police comrades."

Yi Lingling was a little anxious. Why did she have to farm and sweep the streets?

"You try your best."

"Then can you help me ask about the requirements for recruiting into the police force? That way I can work towards a goal."

Ran Ruyi was almost driven crazy by the questions. If she had to confront someone, she had to confront them directly.

"No, I'm not your relative, I don't have a close relationship with you and I have no obligation to help you."

"Sister Ruyi, do you dislike me?"

Yi Lingling's anger turned into sadness, and she didn't know if the tears that flowed out instantly were caused by anger.

"It's not a matter of liking or not, you're just a stranger I've met a few times."

"But if we spend more time together, we will become familiar with each other. I really want to make friends with you and Sister Jian Wu."

"No, we don't need little sisters as friends, you should just find someone your own age to play with."

This was really unacceptable. There was really no way to deal with a girl of Yi Lingling's age, but this time she had learned her lesson and would never get angry. She just lowered her head and left silently. This scene was also seen by many people who were watching the excitement at the door of Ji's house, but no one dared to say anything openly, but it was hard to say how it would be spread privately.

Jian Wu didn't like chatting with too many people and came out early, so she heard the conversation between the two clearly.

"Are you angry again?"

"Wuwu, was I right before? She has set her sights on my eldest brother."

"Haha, this proves that your big brother has a good market position."

"Forget it. Our family is not so lucky."

Jian Wu also shook her head helplessly. Sometimes she was really afraid of being remembered by others for such matters. There was no need to be too ruthless, but if she was not ruthless enough, it would not work. It was difficult to find the right degree.

"Remind your big brother more often and keep an eye on him in the team. It won't be easy to run into him when he goes to work."

"I hate being remembered the most. In Taki City, my brother and I were remembered by so many people. It was disgusting."

"Sometimes the blessings your family background brings you need to be repaid elsewhere. How can you only gain without losing?"

Just like Ruyi’s troubles are just the simplest “loss”, some children from large families are even deprived of marriage. If you think about it carefully, who should be blamed and who should be complained about? It is still the saying “there is gain and loss”, so just think positively.

Ran Ruyi was very clear-headed, and basically understood everything at once. She held the person next to her in her arms and rested her face on her shoulder.

"So I'm very lucky to have such a good family like grandpa, who never pushes me. I'm even more lucky to have you by my side, like a close sister. I've decided that even if I get married in the future, I want to marry by your side so that I can see you every day."

"Hahahaha, that's great. There are lots of people around to choose from."

Ran Ruyi immediately let go and ran aside, with a look of resistance on his face.

When Yi Lingling ran home, there was no trace of tears on her face, but her ferocious and angry expression was seen by Yi Jiaan and his wife who had just arrived.

"Who provoked her again?"

Yi Jiaan glanced at Fan Meifeng and thought, the family has finally had two days of peace, so she should stop looking for trouble.

"Second brother."

"Well, where are my parents?"

"The new Ji family bought a lot of chickens and ducks from the brigade."

"Well, let's go take a look."

Yi Lingling deliberately made an aggrieved expression but was not questioned. The aggrieved and impatient feeling in her heart made her question it out.

"Brother, you won't care about me anymore in the future? Don't people who make mistakes deserve to be forgiven?"

The question did stop Yi Jiaan in his tracks, and he turned around and calmly asked the same question.

"Being forgiven for making a mistake means you have truly changed. Have you changed?"

"I, I changed and I'm studying hard at school."

"Yi Lingling, I just realized that you are a habitual liar. What you said about studying hard means that you always rank in the bottom 20 in the class, and you don't even have a chance to enter high school?"

"You went to school!"

Yi Lingling was ashamed and angry. It was really embarrassing to have the secret she had kept for several years in junior high school exposed in public.

"Not only did I go to school to meet your class teacher, I also learned how you spend the money your family saves on a daily basis. It's unbelievable that a child from a poor family can live so comfortably and with a clear conscience."

"I, I'm just not good at studying."

"Then accept mediocrity and poverty and put yourself in the right position. Being too ambitious will only hurt you."

Yi Lingling burst into tears. This time she was truly sad and upset. She just couldn't accept it. How could those classmates who were not good at studying get a good job? It was because their family members were capable. Her family was a farmer, so all her current plans were to help her family change their social status.

"Second brother, are you trying to say that all your current income is due to your good studies and hard work?"

"How could it not be? Your second brother is smart and good at studying. He has achieved everything he has now by himself."

Fan Meifeng interrupted, because in her mind she was certain that the job at the county unit was arranged by Mr. Pu, but she must not let others know or misunderstand.

"That's a really lucky thing. How could an ordinary worker without any foundation jump into a government department? Don't ever say that you earned it through hard work. These days, hard work is the least valuable thing."

"Oh my God, it's really hard to find a brother who has a good opportunity but is doubted by his own sister."
