A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her
Chapter 341 Studying and Making Money
Money is a good thing. It can at least save you from 90% of the worries in your life.
If she didn't have money, she would have to move so many things by herself and spend most of the day packing. She would probably be exhausted.
But if you have money, you can plan it properly and distribute it out. The people who earn the money will be happy, and she will also feel relieved.
Gu Qinghuan also took this opportunity to instill a certain concept of money into the two children.
You must make money well when it is time to make money. There are too many times in a person's life when you need to use money to defend your dignity.
Money is a person's courage, a person's dignity, and the best medicine.
"Mom, I will study hard and make a lot of money."
Dabao has understood this truth at a young age. To a certain extent, he feels that he studies hard in order to find more ways to make money, just like his mother, who can turn anything into money.
Gu Qinghuan told him: "There is no wasted journey in life, no wasted reading of books, the words you have read will help you understand the world unconsciously, and will quietly help you wipe away the superficiality and ignorance on your face.
Studying may not necessarily bring you success or a bright future, but it can make your words reasonable, your actions more flexible, your words measured, and your actions sensible.
Studying hard may not necessarily make you a lot of money, but it will give you many options and allow you to choose a job that is meaningful to you rather than being forced to make a living.
Your Uncle He Qiang was forced to make a living at a very young age. He sacrificed his own future so that his younger brothers and sisters would have more choices in their future lives. He is very respectable.
In fact, reading and making money are both the best ways to cultivate one’s life. The former helps one to be clear-headed, while the latter gives one dignity. ”
Dabao nodded vigorously.
Beibei has made some progress in the past two years and has understood a lot of things.
After listening to Gu Qinghuan's words, she ran into the room and took out her piggy box.
"Mom, does Uncle He Qiang's family need money? I can give them the money I saved." She remembered her mother saying that Uncle He Qiang had a little brother with a problem with his legs and would never be able to walk properly for the rest of his life.
Gu Qinghuan was touched by the child's kindness.
In the past two years, He Qiang has often sent some toys to the two children, all of which were handmade by his eldest brother. It is indeed not easy for this family to live.
"Not now, it will be better if we help them when they need it."
Gu Qinghuan asked the two children to play by themselves.
When they came back, they saw many children playing the game of pushing iron rings on the roadside. The two children watched them eagerly for a long time.
After getting permission, the two children ran out happily.
Gu Qinghuan shouted, "Take good care of your sister."
"Got it, Mom."
Gu Qinghuan changed into home clothes and cooked with Wang Xiaowei.
After all, today is their first day moving here, so they have to have a warm pot meal. Yun Runtong and his wife will also come over later.
"Xiao Wei, thank you for your trouble today. I will give you an extra ten yuan this month."
Wang Xiaowei waved her hand: "Sister Qinghuan, this is my job, and you have already paid me a lot."
She was a little terrified. Everything that was happening now was something she had never imagined before.
Gu Qinghuan now gives her a monthly salary of 40 yuan, which is equivalent to that of many skilled workers in factories. It also provides food and accommodation, and most importantly, she can take care of her child by herself.
Here, she and her children eat well and live well. As long as she works hard, no one will blame her or complain that she eats too much. There is always fruit and snacks at home, and she is given several sets of clothes every year. Her salary is also paid on time.
Because she had no place to spend the money, she has now saved a lot of money.
Looking back at the scene when she first arrived in Beijing two years ago, she couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate.
"Salary is salary. Moving is hard work and very tiring. You also helped me put my things in place so well. This is the hard work fee you deserve." Gu Qinghuan has no shortage of this now, so he is very generous.
Money is meant to be spent. Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.
"Sister Qinghuan, I'm uneducated and can only do these chores. I hope you don't mind." Wang Xiaowei didn't know why, but in front of Gu Qinghuan, she felt inferior and cowardly from the bottom of her heart.
It was as if Gu Qinghuan was the bright moon in the sky, so far away and out of reach, while she was a blade of grass or a leaf on the ground, small and insignificant.
Gu Qinghuan raised his head and took in her expression.
She probably knew some of her thoughts and understood why she was like that.
Just like she had just educated her two children.
"Xiao Wei, you are only in your early twenties, right? Have you ever thought about continuing your studies?" Gu Qinghuan said casually while cutting vegetables.
"Study? Sister, I'm already twenty years old and have a child. How can I go to school? No one is willing to teach me." A small flame instantly ignited in Wang Xiaowei's eyes, and was quickly extinguished.
The longer she stayed here and saw the lives of Gu Qinghuan and the others, the more she realized her own shallowness and ignorance.
Although she understood that being educated was good, she no longer had the opportunity to study and could only place her hope on the little guy at her feet.
"Xiao Wei, it is never too late to start learning. We cannot expect our fate to be suddenly changed in a certain moment. The power to change our lives is accumulated in every ordinary day.
For me, learning never stops. You see, Yun Jiuzhou and I are older than you, but we are still learning.
No matter what you are learning, as long as you make a little progress today than yesterday, that's good.
I don't mean to despise you, I just want to tell you that if you feel you are not good enough, then study hard, learn hard, and find your answers in books. I believe that one day you will understand.
It’s never too late to start from scratch without a foundation.”
Gu Qinghuan's words gave Wang Xiaowei great encouragement.
"But...but I only know some simple numbers and my name. Is that okay?"
"Sure. I just found a school for them. I heard from the teacher that Huaqing has a literacy class. Anyone can attend the class as long as you love it."
Wang Xiaowei's eyes lit up: "Really? I...can I go? But I...forget it, I still have to work, I don't have time."
Halfway through her speech, she lowered her head again.
Gu Qinghuan has treated her well enough, she can't go too far and use work hours to do her own things.
“It won’t affect my work. The literacy class is from 7pm to 9pm, two hours long, so it won’t affect my work.
You can go there without any worries and learn the basics first. The two children are also learning the basics now, and I think they will be happy to teach you."
"Really? That's great! I'm willing to go!" Wang Xiaowei never thought that she would have the chance to get rid of the label of illiterate in this lifetime.
She wanted to learn! Not for anything else, but to earn a living and to prove herself.
Didn't that unfaithful man Chen Fulai look down on a country girl like her just because he was well-educated?
She wanted to get rid of the label of illiterate, and even more so, she wanted to get rid of her past ignorant and shallow self.
