The world is broken, the cubs mend it

"Let's talk it over. The child's schooling is a big deal. You all know that Wang Shuo is a good student, otherwise I wouldn't be running back and forth."

Seeing that he was so angry that he was about to hit the child again, the village chief became stern in his voice and displayed his authority as the village chief, and only then did the other party stop.

After his repeated questioning, Wang Shuo's father finally told the truth, which was about his daughter's schooling.

Wang Shuo advised them to let their sister go to school as well, but he always felt that when a girl reaches a certain age, she just needs to find a man with good conditions to marry, and there is no need to go through so much trouble.

Moreover, the family conditions are not that good. If I have to support two children in the future, the pressure will be greater than a mountain.

"Dad, there is such a huge gap between my sister and I. By the time she goes to college, I will have graduated long ago. I can support her education."

Wang Shuo has been feeling bad these days. He also wants to go to school, but apart from going on strike to force his family to let his sister go to school, he really can't think of a better way.

He didn't want his sister to marry anyone when she grew up. His parents' ideas were too feudal.

If he were to use his sister's dowry money to get married and build a house in the future, he might as well die now.

"What are you capable of? Even the money you are using now is mine!"

The king's father's voice suddenly became sharp, veins throbbed on his dark yellow cheeks, and his ferocious look made people feel creepy.

"..."

Wang Shuo looked at him palely and opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

"Don't get angry at the child. You want him to go to school, too, don't you? The more you do this, the less willing he will be to go. It's not easy for your family to have a child who wants to study. Don't let him be ruined like this."

Village chief Wang was the middleman and knew the root of the problem. He also had some ideas on how to solve it.

"..."

When Wang's father heard this, he sighed deeply, lit up his pipe and started smoking.

He thought he was not bad to his daughter, never hitting her or depriving her of food and drink.

But at that time, girls in the village did not go to school, and the older generation had instilled this in him.

When resources at home are insufficient, he will naturally favor his son.

Besides, my son is a very ambitious person, so I have to let him study hard no matter what he studies.

"It doesn't cost much for Yingying to go to elementary school now. Don't delay the child when she reaches the age. Won't you enjoy the happiness when she becomes famous in the future?"

Village chief Wang knew that it was not so easy to change the thinking of their generation, so he had to persuade them earnestly.

"Village chief, your family is rich! You are not short of money, but you don't know our hardships. It's easy for you to talk without any pain in your waist."

Wang's father waved his hands impatiently. He had used these words to make the village chief very angry that day.

"..."

This time, Village Chief Wang took several deep breaths before he suppressed his anger. He called Wang Shuo out alone, talked to him for a few words, and then left.

When he got home, Wang's father looked at him sternly and asked, "What did the village chief say to you?"

"Nothing..."

Wang Shuo also had a stern face and didn't want to communicate with him. They would end up quarreling anyway.

"How old are you and your wings are already hard?"

Upon hearing this, Wang's father exhaled a puff of smoke, knocked his copper pipe on the ground, stood up, picked up the broom and was about to hit him again.

"Stop hitting him, are you going to kill him?"

The Queen Mother quickly rushed over to protect the child, and her eyes had turned red from crying over this matter for the past two days.

"Dad, please stop hitting my brother..."

Yingying also cried and pleaded with her brother, saying that it was her fault for having implicated her brother.

The king's father became even more angry when he saw her, and he started to scold her: "If it weren't for you, he would be like this? Why would he have given birth to a money-loser like you?"

"..."

Wang Yingying couldn't believe her ears. She stared at him blankly, and after a few seconds she ran out crying.

Although Dad loves my brother more, he has never said this to me before. This sentence is really too harsh to hear.

"What are you doing? Why are you talking about the child like that?"

The Queen Mother was so angry at his words that she pounced on him and hit him hard twice.

"..."

Wang's father put down his hand that was raised in the air, and began to regret after saying that.

When they gave birth to Yingying, they hoped it would be a daughter, so that a boy and a girl would make a good combination.

In his heart, it was more important for his son to carry on the family line, but he also loved his daughter, but relatively speaking, she was the one who was chosen.

Yingying ran out crying, not knowing where to go, and staggered to Chen's house.

Yuanyuan was sitting in the yard feeding the cows. When she saw her crying, she ran over and asked her anxiously what was wrong.

The two little ones came into the house, and Yingying sat on the stool and cried even harder.

"Why did my dad say that to me? He never said that to me before."

In the past, she only thought that although her father favored boys over girls, he still cared about her. But now she felt that her father never liked her.

"Don't cry, he's talking nonsense."

Yuanyuan had also heard Aunt Wang scold her like this, but her father said that she was not a money-loser, and she was not Sister Yingying either.

"What's going on in your family?"

Chen Jiahe was originally sleeping in the room and was woken up by the crying outside.

The news that Wang Shuo was making a fuss about not going to school these days had spread everywhere, and he was a little curious about what was going on.

Yingying told her brother the reasons why he didn't go to school. She didn't want her brother to do that, but her brother said that this was the only way to have a chance.

After listening to her, Chen Jiahe was silent for a while. He didn't expect Wang Shuo to be so courageous as to sacrifice his own future for his sister's.

"Don't cry, I'll help you think of a solution."

He handed Yingying a towel and asked her to wipe her face thoroughly.

"Really? Even the village chief can't do anything about it."

Yingying sniffed, not knowing how long the quarrel at home would end.

"I have no idea…"

Chen Jiahe did not make any empty promises, he could only say that he would do his best to help, which could be regarded as repaying Wang Shuo for teaching the child to read.

Not long after, the Queen Mother came over. Seeing the crying and hiccuping child, she felt sad again and started crying while hugging her.

After seeing the mother and daughter off, Yuanyuan stood at the door and looked up at her father: "How can we help Sister Yingying?"

"Let's go to her house later."

Chen Jiahe pulled the child into the room, closed the door, and opened the iron box under the pillow in the bedroom.

This was where he kept his money. He sorted the money out, counted out twenty yuan and put it in his pocket.

"Dad, are we going to the market?"

Yuanyuan sat cross-legged on the bed. Her father would only give her money when he went to market.

"No, give this to Yingying."

The tuition and miscellaneous fees for elementary school are about six or seven yuan per semester, which is enough for a school year.

Chen Jiahe felt a pain in his heart as he held the money in his hand. This was none of his business, but he wanted to help for the sake of the child.

"it is good!"

Yuanyuan nodded happily. The money could be used to buy things, and it could definitely be used to buy textbooks for Sister Yingying.

The father and daughter took the money and went out. On the way, they met Village Chief Wang, who was also going to Yingying's house and did not look very well.
