Zheng Bajin could tell at a glance that this little girl looked very innocent. She was probably still a student. She had never been in society and had not been beaten up by society. Therefore, she yearned for the courageous act of justice.
During the conversation, Zheng Bajin's guess was confirmed. She was really a student, her name was Wanqing, and she was from the Chinese Department of the Teachers College. However, she would graduate soon and was now in the internship stage.
The school ended the internship at a middle school on the edge of the city, allowing everyone to participate in social practice.
It just so happened that Wanqing's home was in the countryside, not far from the city. She planted an acre of land and some cabbage, so Wanqing took over her mother's burden and came to the city alone to have a try.
Her mother was not worried about her showing up alone in the city, but she had been ill for the past two days, so Wanqing ran out secretly.
Speaking of her mother, Wanqing looked gloomy: "My father can walk, but it's not easy for her to take me alone and support me in studying all these years. She gets up early and stays late, and has become sick from overwork. However, she never lets me know, I was not allowed to participate in growing and selling vegetables. Until now, I fell down from exhaustion, but I didn’t want to spend money to see a doctor. I had no choice, so I thought of taking advantage of the fact that the school wants me to participate in social practice activities. I took the opportunity to sell some food, which not only completed the tasks assigned by the school, but also sold some money to treat my mother's illness."
"Who else is in the family? How much did you sell it for now?" Zheng Bajin listened with great sympathy, and at the same time, he also had admiration for Wanqing's mother.
If this matter were placed in Shili Village today, Wan might have dropped out of school early in the morning or found someone to marry.
"There is no one at home anymore, only my mother and I depend on each other. If something happens to her, I really don't know what to do?" Wanqing said, with tears in her eyes, she suddenly said in embarrassment, "Not a single cabbage was sold. They all said the price was too expensive, but I only said it was a dime a pound."
Zheng Bajin took over the burden and said with a smile: "Look, the side leaves of this vegetable have not been removed, so it will definitely not be sold. Moreover, the current market price is really not worth a dime."
Wanqing smiled awkwardly and said, "It seems that I still participate in too little social practice and am almost out of touch with life. By the way, how come you know everything?"
"Haha, I've been collecting vegetables these days." Zheng Bajin said with a smile, "By the way, let's go to your house and see how many vegetables there are. Then you don't have to pick them out on the street. I'll have someone pick them up."
"You're still buying groceries, can you eat so much?" Wanqing was a little happy, but then said worriedly.
"To be honest, I raise hundreds of pigs in the countryside and need a lot of vegetables every day." Zheng Bajin said, "Let's go and have a look at your house."
It can be seen that Wanqing's mother is an expert at growing vegetables, and the cabbages she grows are large and tender.
Zheng Bajin suddenly had a bold idea. He took her to Haizi Village and rented a piece of land to start farming. By then, he would not have to worry about the vegetables from his pig farm, and maybe he could supply the city and achieve vegetable freedom in advance.
When Wanqing heard that Zheng Bajin was going to her house, she was very happy and stepped forward to lead the way.
At this time, the people in Nancaiyuan were still discussing what happened just now. They really couldn't understand it. Suddenly there were a few more chivalrous and righteous characters, which was hard to adapt to.
Not far in front of the Gaoxing Inn, Wang Yan also came back from get off work. She looked at the people discussing together with confusion. However, she did not dare to get involved in anything. Instead, she walked through the crowd and entered the inn. She heard the boss talking. When talking to other beaters, they said that a tall man could knock down an arrogant bastard with one punch.
The boss is like a storyteller, he speaks with joy and excitement. Their store is full of people who work or are honest people who come to the city to see a doctor. When hearing such stories, they just laugh along and wash away the tiredness of the day. and uncomfortable and didn’t really take it seriously.
The same goes for Wang Yan, who has no idea who this person is? He never thought that Zheng Bajin had looked for her in the city. She was so tired, she just wanted to wash her face, have a good rest, and make some food for herself.
She worked on the construction site all day and was exhausted. Apart from accommodation and living expenses, she didn't have much left over, so she didn't dare to think too much.
Fortunately, the person who leads the job is nice and has a good heart. She has invited her to live with her daughters at home several times, but she has always declined. She should not trouble others too much if they are not relatives.
Of course, she never thought about finding someone to marry again one day.
In her consciousness, there has never been a double plum blossom.
…
Zheng Bajin was too busy and had temporarily put her down. He had already left the city, followed by Wanqing.
Not long after leaving the city, by coincidence, I met Tang Zhengwen, driving a carriage and pulling a bucket of water.
Tang Zhengwen didn't expect to meet Zheng Bajin here. I was planning to go home and take a rest, and leave for Shili Village before dawn tomorrow.
Zheng Bajin was busy introducing Wanqing, saying that he came just in time and wanted to go see her mother together.
As he said that, he saw a canteen and Zheng Bajin bought some biscuits as a meeting gift.
It’s never a good idea to go to someone else’s house empty-handed for the first time.
Tang Zhengwen heard that Wanqing's house was growing vegetables and wanted to take a look.
It turned out that the two families were not far apart, only ten minutes' walk away. However, Tang Zhengwen never thought about bringing the food from the city back to the countryside.
Since ancient times, people have only been brought from rural areas to cities. How can it be the other way around?
Wanqing said embarrassedly that there was no need to buy anything, Zheng Bajin had already saved her, and she didn't know how to repay her, so how could she let him spend money again?
Tang Zhengwen looked at Zheng Bajin with a half-smile, his meaning was obvious, are you attracted to this little girl?
Zheng Bajin rolled his eyes at him, meaning, you old bachelor, you think too much, she is still a student, I just treat her as a talent, can you put away that dirty heart?
"By the way, what are your plans after graduation?" Zheng Bajin changed the topic, not wanting to talk dumbly with Tang Zhengwen, let alone making up his own mind with him.
"What else can I plan to do? I'll teach in the mountains after graduation! Teaching and educating people is my ideal and my mother's biggest wish. She said that teachers are inseparable at any time, and the country must develop education. "
Zheng Bajin nodded: "Teaching is good, especially for girls. Teaching is very simple. But, why do you have to go to the mountainous area?"
"I like mountainous areas. The people there are simple and honest. Moreover, our class is a targeted enrollment. When we enrolled, we signed a contract and must teach in mountainous areas for 15 years." Wanqing did not think there was anything wrong with going to mountainous areas. Instead, it feels like a challenge.
Zheng Bajin took a slight breath of air. 15 years! It doesn't matter whether it lasts long or not, it's gone in a blink of an eye. It's not too short to say the least. How many 15 years are there in life?
These are a girl's most beautiful years!
It is conceivable that in a few years, like other female teachers, she will take root there, have children, and start another reincarnation!
Of course, Zheng Bajin had no right to make the decision for her, let alone let her abandon her lofty ideals and the most glorious career under the sun to help a small businessman like herself who had not yet started.
