For Jian Lu, holidays are often harder than studying - he needs to work part-time to supplement the tuition and expenses of the university.

On top of that, my mother in the far northern countryside called before the holidays.She speaks a thick dialect, and her voice is already loud, not to mention that many older people like to yell when talking on the phone, so not only Jian Lu finds her mother's voice harsh, but also the roommates They also showed disgust.

Jian Lu hurriedly covered the sound hole, smiled and apologized, exited the dormitory, and went to the corridor to answer the phone.

"Mom, what's the matter?"

"If I don't call you, you won't call back, right? If your wings are stiff, you will fly. I think you have been studying for a few years and pretend to be a shit!"

Jian's mother scolded Jian Lu fiercely, and everyone was stunned by the scolding.Jian Lu was afraid of irritating his emotionally unstable mother, so he lowered his volume a little: "Mom, what are you talking about? Didn't I just send back the money a few days ago?"

"What's the use of your pennies? Let me tell you, your sister will graduate from junior high school soon. You know her grades are not good. There is no public high school for her. I asked her to find a private high school in the county. "Jane's mother scolded first, and then said the purpose of the call.

Jian Lu was stunned for a moment, and asked back: "But the family doesn't have that much money for my sister to study!"

How expensive private high schools are, Jian Lu, as a place from that small place, is very clear.The tuition fee of at least [-] yuan per year is enough for a family without male labor to afford, not to mention the expensive living expenses in the county town.

But Jian's mother didn't think so. When she heard that her son had the intention of refusing, she immediately became furious: "Do you have a conscience! She is your own sister! You can't bear to see Xiaoyu just like other girls after finishing junior high school." Go out to work and become an illiterate?"

Jian Lu was scolded bloody by his own mother, and that was a bad feeling in his heart.He endured the sourness and grievance of being misunderstood by his relatives, and patiently explained: "Mom, I didn't mean that, I mean, we don't have to choose such an expensive private high school, we can go to a slightly worse public high school, as long as Xiaoyu Be willing to study hard, it’s the same everywhere. You know our family’s situation best, how can I raise so much money all of a sudden!”

"Who asked you to take the money these few days? If you dare to take it, we dare not use it! What are you doing in summer vacation? I said that you would not be allowed to go to college, and you would have earned a lot of money by working in the mine with Daniel from the next door village. It's all over."

Facing Jian's mother's questioning, Jian Lu lowered his head and whispered, "I want to earn college tuition..."

Before he finished speaking, a sharp childish voice came over: "Brother, what do you mean! You are allowed to go to college and go to a big city to see the world, but am I going to finish high school in the countryside? You are too selfish Already!"

After finishing speaking, he even started to sob and cry.Jian's mother was at a loss for a while, even Jian Lu didn't bother to scold her, and patted Jian Yu's back to coax her.

Listening to her sister's loud cries and her mother's unbearable swearing, Jian Lu felt that her brain was going to explode in pain.He was filled with anger and grievance, but he had nowhere to vent it. The feeling of powerlessness that he couldn't communicate with his family made Jian Lu so sad that he wanted to cry, but he couldn't.

He didn't want to disappoint his mother, but he was also chilled by the huge difference in her treatment of the two children.After struggling for a long time, Jian Lu closed his eyes and said resignedly, "Don't cry, I'll find a way."

As soon as Jian Yu heard it, she stopped crying immediately, and laughed through her tears: "I knew that my brother would not ignore me, don't worry, I will definitely study hard."

Jian Lu gave a casual "hmm" and hung up the phone looking for a reason.Jian Ma and Jian Yu got the result they wanted, so they didn't care too much about it.

He stayed outside for a while before returning to the bedroom with heavy steps.The chubby guy on the upper bunk rolled his eyes, got up and smiled at him, "Your mother asked you for money again?"

Jian Lu nodded and forced a smile: "My sister is going to high school."

"I'm not talking about you. Is the money from your part-time job enough for yourself? You broke your mobile phone at the beginning of school last semester and only got it this semester. I don't know if you can make up the tuition fee at the beginning of next semester." Xiaopang sneered for a while. In a word, turn over and lie back on the bed.

Jian Lu sighed insignificantly, and sat on the bed in a daze.He was originally worried about his sister and his tuition fees, but he couldn't help thinking about the mobile phone Xiaopang said, and unconsciously picked up the PHS and handed it to him when he abducted to Lin Shen.

Jian Lu stared at the white-washed pillow with complicated eyes for a long time, and finally reached in and touched the PHS that had been broken into two pieces, and touched the fuselage directly with calluses—it was icy cold, just Like Lin Shenshi's hand warmth.

"I don't know when I'll see him again..." Jian Lu murmured to himself, his mind flying into the sky.

Alas, what are you thinking? Jian Lu, are you worthy of him?

Jian Lu shook his head, squeezed out the dangling white hands in his head, and stuffed the PHS back under the pillow.Now is not the time to think about these things. What he wants to think about is how to earn enough money.

During the short vacation before the final exam, Jian Lu went to almost all the stores around the university town that were recruiting part-time workers.In fact, he is tall and big, with quick hands and feet, and it is easy to find a job. Unfortunately, Jian Lu needs too much salary, and it is far from enough to just be a waiter or something.

On the last day, he came to the construction site and signed a contract with the contractor.As soon as the exam was over, Jian Lu packed up a few clothes and lived on the construction site - non-junior students are not allowed to stay in school during the summer vacation.He works diligently and rushes to do everything. Not only the contractor is satisfied, but also the workers in the same group are satisfied. They often ask him to run errands, or push their own work to him.

In summer, the sun is bright and the weather is hot. Even old farmers can't stand it.Jian Lu has only been working for a week. He turned out to be a pretty fair guy. His arms and neck peeled off from the sun. Every night when he took off his clothes in the shower, everyone around him would laugh at his huge skin color difference.Jian Lu often smiled at them shyly while hugging his clothes, resisting the burning sensation on his arms.

Only the heavy workload can make Jian Lu temporarily stop thinking about the exhausting family members and... the people he can only secretly like in his heart.

On the tenth day of moving bricks at the construction site, at three o'clock in the afternoon, as soon as Jian Lu came out of the greenhouse, he was so hot that he was sweating, and his vest was soaked in no time.

Jian Lu wiped off his sweat, bent down and started laying bricks.The strong sunlight hit his back directly, burning it hot and painful.Jianlu put a lot of effort into her legs, hugged the brick with a "hey" sound, straightened her waist, and stared at the stars in front of her eyes, dizziness rushed to the top of her head from the soles of her weak feet, and there was still a faint feeling of vomiting in her stomach.

Jian Lu shook his head, and took a while to stand still.The man next to him saw him walking staggeringly, and shouted at him, "Son, I'll get you a bottle of oral liquid, don't suffer from heat stroke!"

Jian Lu turned her head and gritted her white teeth, said with a smile: "No, I'm fine."

As if to prove that he was in good condition, Jian Lu picked up the speed while holding the brick, walking like flying under the scorching sun.The uncle saw how energetic he was, so he relaxed his mind and his cement.

When Jian Lu finished moving the bricks and went back in the shade, he heard a commotion in front, a group of people wearing safety helmets—there were contractors in the past few years, and they didn’t know what they were doing, forming a circle of seven Walking towards this side with a tongue.He grabbed the worker who was about to watch the excitement, and asked him, "What's going on?"

The worker shook off his sweaty hand, raised his chin towards that side, and said, "I don't know too well. I heard from the contractor this morning that someone from the developer is coming. I won't tell you. I have to go and see the developer." What do you look like, maybe I can be a developer in the future."

Just as they were talking, a bunch of people walked over.Jian Lu is tall, tiptoed to explore inside, and nearly fell while holding on to the wall.

It was Lin Shenshi who was wearing a simple white shirt. Surrounded by a group of people, he pursed his lips and said nothing, occasionally nodded at someone's words, and walked forward quietly.Someone around him held an umbrella for him, but from time to time, a few rays of sunlight still penetrated under the umbrella, passionately kissing the skin leaking out.

Jian Lu's eyes were almost hotter than the sun in midsummer, sticking to the few inches of Lin Shen's skin that was exposed to the sun and turned slightly pink.Lin Shenshi sensitively noticed this unusual gaze. He raised his head and looked along the direction of his gaze. The small bright red mole at the end of his eye also jumped with the movement of his eye.

"!"

He looked over!

Jian Lu let go of the hand holding the wall for a second, and was unstable for a moment. He took a few steps outside and was exposed to the scorching sun.

The familiar feeling of dizziness surged up again, and before Jian Lu had time to smile at Lin Shen, he fell straight down.

When he knocked his head on the muddy ground and raised a puff of dust, what Jian Lu thought was that he would lose face in front of the person he liked again.

In a coma, Jian Lu felt that someone was moving him, and he entered a cool place after a while, and the unbearable vomiting in his stomach was soothed and calmed down.

When he opened his eyes again, he was on the hospital bed, and what he saw was a pure white ceiling.

Jian Lu sat up abruptly, feeling extremely panicked—if she goes to the hospital once, let alone losing her ten-day salary, it's still unknown whether she can save money this month!As soon as he made a move, he wanted to pull out the needle, but the uncle who was dozing beside him trembled in fright, and quickly held him down: "You son of a bitch! Don't move around, don't you want to die?"

Jian Lu cried with a mournful face: "Uncle, I can't even bear to buy Huoxiangzhengqi Liquid. Where can I get the money to pay for the medical expenses!"

Just as Jian Lu was crying, a cold voice came from outside the ward. To Zhong Xia's sweltering heat and irritability, it was like a gurgling mountain stream, which made people feel refreshed.

"I have already paid for the medical expenses, so you don't have to worry."

Lin Shenshi carried the fruit basket, changed his clothes, and stood cleanly at the door, looking at Jian Lu with crystal clear eyes.
