"Mom, I want to participate in the competition. I have discussed it with you before, but you don't agree. What else can I say? I just have to find a way to go. Even if you stop me, I will go. There is no room for negotiation on this matter." Li Wei said Liu Chunzhi was tough in front of him.

"Okay, now you know how to yell at me. Is this how you teach talking to mom in your school?" Liu Chunzhi said and tried to pull Li Wei's ears again.

Li Wei said in pain: "Mom, why don't you want me to go?"

"Besides wasting money, tell me what benefits can you get? What if I get first place? Can I make a living?"

Li Wei felt that Mrs. Liu Chunzhi was short-sighted and only knew how to farm. She stood up, retreated to a corner, and said to Liu Chunzhi, "I want to be famous."

Liu Chunzhi's eyes widened. What did her daughter just say? Want to be famous? What's the name? In Liu Chunzhi's mind, these things are all false. Only students with good grades are the last word. Everything else is crooked and money should not be wasted.

"Then tell me what you can do when you become famous?"

"What can I do? Isn't it just to have one more path for the future? Mom, please don't stare at what's in front of you, okay? My second brother is right. You can't cultivate the land for a lifetime anyway. Think carefully about how to take the future path. . I need this fame to pave the way for the future.”

What Li Wei said made a rural woman unable to turn around for a long time, but she figured out that this daughter was completely different from the previous one. The changes were too big. If she didn't look exactly the same, she would really worry about whether she was being raped. The bag was dropped. But she quickly found an explanation, and thought that Jian Bo must have led this sister to evil. Li Wei's tone was no different from Jian Bo's.

She couldn't control her daughter when she was older, so she had to say: "You can do whatever you want, but I won't pay you a penny anyway." Liu Chunzhi slammed the door hard when she went out, and Li Wei shivered in fright. .

The ears that were pulled by Liu Chunzhi still hurt. That woman was really capable of doing this. Li Wei sat down on the stool and turned on the radio.

A bright and clear female voice came from the radio broadcasting the news. She was not interested in listening to the content of the news. All she could think about was the future.

She held out her hands to see. Once upon a time, she had a pair of slender, white and well-maintained slender hands. Now her hands were covered with large and small calluses, and they had long been tanned by the sun, but she understood that the only thing she could rely on in this life was these calloused hands.

She took the mirror again and looked at it. The face in the mirror was as dark as the skin on her hands, and was completely unreadable. She used to pay great attention to her appearance, but for the future, she has been exposed to wind and sun, and there is no trace of delicateness in her body. It was life that had made her look like this. Although it was a bit harder, Li Wei felt that she was living a solid life.

What can be done in the future? She has been studying in this era for one semester, and her experience is naturally different from when she first entered this era. She knew that Li Jianbo wanted to be a doctor, and she could also choose her own career. She could be a doctor, a salesperson, or even a driver, or she could be an announcer like the woman broadcasting news on the radio. But she knows that no matter what career she chooses in the future, she must work hard for it. Only by working hard can she live her own wonderful life.

Li Wei's eyes turned to the pair of tanned hands. These hands could wash, cook, and do housework, and they could also write and draw. Writing and drawing are her specialty. Only by developing her specialty and making herself more eye-catching will it become easier in the future.

She has always been a person who is good at seizing opportunities. When the opportunity arises this time, no matter how difficult it is, she will never give up.

Because Liu Chunzhi took action and Liu Chunzhi did not support Li Wei in the first place, the mother and daughter had no communication since dinner. Li Wei rode out the door after breakfast the next day. The two of them still didn't say a word before going out.

Li Minghua was still kept in the dark: "Where are Weiwei going on her bike? We expect her to go with us to fertilize the corn."

"Count on her, forget it. I think she has a lot of opinions, and I won't care about her from now on."

Li Minghua wondered, are the mother and daughter really in conflict

As long as it doesn't rain, Li Wei will definitely go out to do business. She shouted at the top of her voice outside, but she became increasingly silent when she returned home. Soon, July passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was the beginning of August.

After working hard these days, Li Wei took out the money he had saved over the past few days and counted it. Putting it together in bits and pieces, it was exactly ninety-one dollars and two cents.

This money is not even enough for the registration fee, and the couple at home cannot count on it. Liu Chunzhi had already let it go and said she would not take out a penny.

Seeing that the day of the competition was approaching, Li Wei had to find someone to borrow money. Although Wang Yulan was on good terms with her, she probably didn't have much savings. Li Mingguo's family still owed money to their family, and he was a very picky person. Li Xia was a strange flower, so she couldn't count on it.

All Li Wei can think about now is her maternal uncle's house. Her uncle treats her well, so she might as well ask her uncle if it's okay.

Li Wei made up her mind and planned to go to her uncle's house after breakfast tomorrow, but before she could go out the next day, Li Jianbo came back. This is the first time since the summer vacation that I have gone home.

When Li Jianbo arrived home, he briefly greeted his parents, then pulled Li Wei into the room and closed the door. The brother and sister were discussing in the room.

"The day after tomorrow is the match day. We have to go to the city early tomorrow morning. Are you ready?"

Li Wei lowered his head and said: "There's nothing else, except for the money. My parents don't support me, and I've shed so much sweat these days, but it's still not enough. How about we go to my uncle's house together and ask Uncle, can you lend us some?"

"Are you short of money?" Li Jianbo said as he dug into his trouser bag and took out a black wallet. He took out all the money in it, handed it to Li Wei, and said to her: "I have two hundred dollars here." "Is it enough?"

"More than two hundred? Where did you get so much money?" Facing the sudden huge sum of money, Li Wei's eyes widened.

Li Jianbo smiled and said: "Don't worry, it wasn't stolen or robbed, it was earned hard by me. Just in time. Now that the money matter has been resolved, we should be able to set off smoothly. You pack your things." "

"What big business did you do? Can you earn this in less than a month?"

Li Jianbo smiled and said: "I teach people, I have four tutoring jobs."

Tutor? what is that
