"Wu Zhixun, it's nothing. You should go back to school." Wu Dibao said to Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan was stunned, then nodded, "Okay, teacher, uncle, aunt, I'll take the first step. Li Qingtong, you take good care of yourself and I'll come see you tomorrow."
"Well, be careful on the road." Li Qingtong said quickly.
"What...child, I will pay you back the money tomorrow." Li Wusi shouted.
"Don't worry, uncle." Xiang Nan smiled and then returned to school.
"This kid is so good." Liu Qiuxia said with emotion. He is smart, handsome, generous and decent, unlike other children who have frizzy hair, swishing dogs, and lack of stability.
"Yes." Wu Dibao nodded, "I have taught so many children, and this is the first time I have encountered such a student."
Li Qingtong was secretly happy when he saw them all praising Xiang Nan.
…
Suddenly, Li Jinjin handed over two thousand yuan to Xiang Nan.
"Wu Zhixun, Li Qingtong's parents asked me to give this to you. Thank you for helping Li Qingtong pay for his medical expenses yesterday," she explained.
"You're welcome." Xiang Nan took the money and said, "By the way, what kind of job does Li Qingtong's father do now? I don't think he looks very good."
"He seems to work in a cement factory." Li Jinjin thought for a while and said, "I really forgot which one."
"We don't have many cement factories in Tiewon. If you think about it carefully, are you going to leap into a cement factory?" Xiang Nan asked.
"It seems so." Li Jinjin nodded after hearing this.
"That's not right. Yuejin Cement Factory declared bankruptcy in January this year." Xiang Nan frowned.
"No way?! How is it possible? Then he didn't mention it at all, and he still went to work as usual every day, even later than usual, and he looked even more tired." Li Jinjin asked in surprise.
"Definitely, it was all published in the newspapers." Xiang Nan explained, "When he goes out every day, he must not go to work in the factory, but do odd jobs on his own. The reason why I don't tell you is probably because I'm afraid you will worry, so I took it on myself. ."
When Li Jinjin heard this, he felt it made sense.
The Li family used to stew chicken and fish every now and then, and they were never stingy in their meals.
In the past six months, there have been less meat dishes on the dinner table and more vegetarian dishes. She didn't take it seriously at first, but now that she thinks about it, it might really be because she was laid off.
"What should we do?" Li Jinjin asked worriedly.
She didn't care about money at first, but now she really started to worry. Grandpa's job is gone, and Li Qingtong is sick again. It can be said that the house is leaking and the rain is pouring, and the boat is broken and the wind is blowing.
Upon seeing this, Xiang Nan handed the two thousand yuan back to her, "Give this money to Li Qingtong's parents in your name. You can make up for whatever you can."
"..." Li Jinjin was stunned and asked in surprise, "How can this be possible? This is your money."
"It's useless to keep my money now. Since Li Qingtong needs it, let's give it to her first." Xiang Nan explained.
"But..." Li Jinjin still hesitated.
This is not more than ten or twenty yuan. I borrowed it today and can pay it back in two days. This is two thousand yuan, I'm afraid it won't be repaid in a few years. She really couldn't bear such a big favor.
"No need," Xiang Nan advised, "Take it and help reduce their burden. Otherwise, I'm worried that he won't be able to hold on."
Li Jinjin thought for a while and finally accepted the two thousand yuan.
…
At noon, Xiang Nan went to the hospital to visit Li Qingtong and brought her favorite canned yellow peach.
"How's it going? Are you feeling better today?" he asked with a smile.
"Much better." Li Qingtong smiled and nodded.
"That's good." Xiang Nan also smiled, "Have you eaten yet?"
"My mother is going to get food. I'll eat it soon." Li Qingtong explained.
"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded, "You asked for the canned yellow peach yesterday, but you can't eat it now. Let's eat it in the evening."
"Yes. The nurse also said that no raw or cold food is allowed within twenty-four hours." Li Qingtong said with a smile.
"Do you need some water?" Xiang Nan asked again.
"No, just sit down and I'll just talk to you." Li Qingtong waved his hand.
Xiang Nan nodded, sat down beside her bed, and talked with her for a while.
Just as he was talking, Liu Fengxia had already returned from cooking.
"Hey, kid, you are here." She was surprised to see Xiang Nan.
"Yes, Auntie, let me take a look." Xiang Nan stood up quickly and said, "If you have any help, just ask."
"It's okay, it's okay, you sit down." Liu Fengxia greeted.
"I won't sit down anymore. Since there's nothing else to do, I'll go back." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Li Qingtong, take good care of your health."
…
Three days later, Li Qingtong was discharged from the hospital. A week later, I officially returned to school.
"Oh, Li Er, you are finally back. Then we have to make arrangements to catch you in the evening." Wang Xiaomin smiled immediately when he saw it.
"Come on, save some money." Li Jinjin refused.
"Yeah, I just know how to spend money. Have you made money?" Li Qingtong also refused.
"What's going on? We never show mercy when it comes to eating." Wang Xiaomin said in confusion.
"Okay, let's do your questions." Fan Shuishui patted his head and said.
"Wu Zhixun, thank you." Li Qingtong whispered to Xiang Nan after sitting down.
She already knew about her father's layoff, and she felt very guilty about it.
In order to protect her, her father never said anything about it, and she was so heartless that she never noticed it and kept spending money. Now that I think about it, I feel really sorry for my parents.
"I will return your two thousand yuan to you as soon as possible." Li Qingtong said again.
"There's no need to rush to pay back the money. I'm not in a hurry anyway, and you don't have to think about it all the time." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "The most important thing you should consider now is to study hard and get into a good university in the future. . That way after you graduate, you can find a good job and make money to support your parents."
Li Qingtong nodded.
She has also thought about it these days. She did not work hard enough or be motivated enough before, and she will make changes in the future. In the future, I will get into a good university and find a good job so that I can repay my parents well.
…
Under such motivation, Li Qingtong has been studying very hard in the next few months.
Even during the winter vacation, she was not lazy and kept learning from Xiang Nan.
Hard work paid off, and with her unremitting efforts, her grades improved to the top ten in the class, and her highest score even exceeded 600 points.
With such a score, it would be more difficult to get admitted to Qingbei, but it should be no problem to get admitted to Yanjing's 985 University.
In addition, Fan Shuishui, Wang Xiaomin, Duan Xiao, and Li Jinjin also studied with Xiang Nan during the winter vacation, and their grades also improved to a certain extent.
Time flies, and April is here in the blink of an eye. There are only three months left before the college entrance examination.
At this time, the school suddenly wanted to hold a cultural party to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the founding of the school, which suddenly disrupted everyone's hearts.
