At Xu Lang's request, Xia Teng's mother still asked Xia Teng to get up and enter the house.
After entering the house, Xu Lang realized what poverty really meant. The dark and crowded room was full of corn cobs, and there was no place to go. The stove beside him was burning with firewood, making a crackling sound.
Xu Lang suddenly remembered the previous life, the previous life, until Xia Teng's death, her family was still her black spot, and many people scolded her for being unfilial.
It was not until after her death that it was revealed that all her money was donated to the Hope Project. At that time, all the media began to dig deeper, only to find that almost all of her income was used to build Hope Primary School and help children in mountainous areas. .
Some people say that Xia Teng worked so hard to improve other people's lives because, deep down in her heart, she also hoped that someone would give her a hand.
"Teacher, you have seen the situation in our family..." Xia Teng's mother began to speak, "She is the only one in our village who is in high school, and the other girls have already gone out to earn money."
Xu Lang came back to his senses. Hearing this, he nodded, "Xia Teng is a good boy. I can tell from a glance that you teach very well."
Xu Lang was in the shopping mall, how could he not say anything on the scene.
When Xia Teng's mother heard this, she immediately became proud, "She is stubborn, if only she were as filial as her brother."
Xia Teng blushed next to her, not because of her mother's rudeness, nor because of her own embarrassment. She was extremely afraid, afraid to hear her mother say that.
Her family thoroughly implements the policy of "no matter how hard you are, you can't suffer your son, and no matter how poor you are, you must be poor". This time, she was deceived and came back because her brother fell in love with a girl in the town, but the bride price money Too few, her brother felt ashamed, so he played her idea...
Since elementary school, she has known that in such a family, being a woman is the original sin. She is also used to the scolding from her parents and the discrimination and ridicule from her classmates, because she knows that one day, she will get rid of these. So she never cared about other people's eyes.
But now...
"We are different from those outside," Xia Teng's mother began to say, "how can there be so much money to study, it is better to marry a good family."
When Xu Lang heard this, he was very surprised. He suddenly understood why Xia Teng was so stubborn in his previous life.
"What's wrong with the village chief's son, the gift money has been given a full 10,000 yuan, this dead girl is stubborn! Teacher, you help me persuade her, what a girl can do when she reads so many books, and honestly marrying a person is better than marrying someone. Anything is strong."
Xu Lang didn't look at Xia Teng's expression, but said earnestly, "Fortunately, I'm here. Otherwise, you will lose big because of small things."
"The school has launched a new subsidy program for poor students. Those poor students who meet the requirements will receive a monthly subsidy of 5,000 yuan. It's only November, and by June next year, there will be a total of 40,000 yuan." Xu Lang saw Xia Mama Teng's eyes suddenly lit up.
"You...you mean..." Xia Teng's mother stammered.
Xu Lang nodded, "The main reason for my visit this time is to make sure that Xia Teng does not meet the requirements, so I will give you the subsidy for November and December. It will be issued once a month in the future."
As he said that, he took out the fruit from the bag, as well as the wrapped cash.
Xia Teng's mother's eyes straightened, "School is too good..."
Xu Lang continued, "But I have to bring Xia Teng back to school. If I miss classes again, if Xia Teng is expelled from the school, I won't be able to get this subsidy."
Xia Teng's mother took the cash and pinched Xia Teng, "Don't hurry up and pack up, go back to school with your teacher, and chatter!"
Xia Teng was very fast, Xu Lang said a few words to Xia Teng's mother, Xia Teng dressed and walked out.
Xu Lang is a natural businessman, and the businessman's ability to capture information is different from ordinary people. After only chatting with Xia Teng's mother for a while, he basically figured out everything before and after.
Xia Teng's mother finally happily sent the two away.
Ride the car at the entrance of the village.
Xu Lang and Xia Teng were walking on the muddy path.
"I will repay you, and I will pay you back the money." Xia Teng said softly, she didn't know why the other party helped her.
"I'll wait." Xu Lang replied.
The car came, and the two got into the car one after the other.
Xu Lang sat next to Xia Teng.
He knew why his previous life, Xia Teng, would rather go to court than go private.
He remembered that time, when Xia Teng stood at the door of the court, as proud as a queen, and said to the reporters who frantically interviewed her, "I have never been sorry to anyone."
Suddenly, there was a heavy weight on the shoulders.
Xu Lang turned his head and saw the person who had already fallen asleep, with big dark circles under his eyes. From this point of view, it is really fragile.
Xu Lang adjusted his posture to make the other person sleep more comfortably.
At this time, I also saw the red palm of the other party.
Xu Lang remembered the pile of peeled corn kernels in the middle of the room.
After more than three hours' drive, Xia Teng all fell asleep. It can be seen that she is really sleepy.
When I got there, I was still confused.
Xu Lang took her bag naturally, "Wait for the car to go to the city."
Only then did Xia Teng react. He had been sleeping on Xu Lang, but he didn't know what to say, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
As Xu Lang said, he led Xia Teng in line to buy tickets, "It's okay."
"I'll take the bag myself." Xia Teng took his bag with a blushing face.
Xu Lang remembered that he still had food in his bag, "I originally bought it for the children in your family, but when I arrived, I found out that I was going to bring the children out of your family, so I didn't take it out."
Xu Lang's voice was originally clear and pleasant, and when he said this, he had a slight smile, which made people feel more indescribable comfort.
The heart that was terrified by the signing of a huge human debt was settled down in the other party's tolerant tone.
The other party said she was a child. This was probably the first time anyone thought she was a child. Obviously she was the same age, but Xia Teng felt that Xu Lang was not joking, he really regarded her as a child.
Xu Lang naturally felt the other party's change, and he didn't say much. He directly gave Xia Teng the package of candy he weighed in the supermarket.
Xia Teng has never been a person who doesn't know the current affairs, and will not shirk it. Since childhood, there are very few people who are kind to her. It is precisely because of this that she cherishes every person who shows kindness to her.
"Thank you." Xia Teng took the candy, but it couldn't keep up with the hunger in her stomach. After eating two, it was so sweet that it seemed as if the heavy things in her life suddenly became sweet.
Xia Teng thought that she would definitely try to repay this person.
Xu Lang bought the ticket and was sure that the train would not depart in an hour.
Take Xia Teng to the dumpling restaurant next to it.
While waiting for the dumplings to arrive, Xia Teng took a notebook and a pen from his schoolbag.
Then started writing.
Xu Lang was a little puzzled, what is this writing
Then he saw Xia Teng tore off the piece of paper and handed it to Xu Lang, "I'm a bit stupid, I don't know how to express my gratitude."
When Xu Lang heard this, he thought that the other party had written a thank you letter to him, and then he lowered his head and saw that it was written on the paper, "Contract"
"I, Xia Teng, in order to thank Xu Lang for his life-saving grace and to compensate Xu Lang for his economic losses, I hereby promise that from November 5, 2014 to November 5, 2024, all the money earned during the period, except for my own All living expenses and tuition fees are handed over to Xu Lang. Signature: Xia Teng”
Xu Lang: "..." He's a businessman, but it's the first time he's seen such a foolish person with a lot of money.
If it was him in the early days of his previous life, he would definitely accept it without saying a word, and then put Xia Teng in the entertainment industry to make money.
However, now he is the business tycoon who has countless assets and does not understand the meaning of life until he dies.
For him, the value of Xia Teng lies only in that he cannot bear to see beautiful things destroyed in the world, and for him, it is just a little effort.
Although he is not a good person, he still has compassion for beautiful things.
"Don't dislike me, I earn my tuition and living expenses myself, but I don't have that much time in my senior year... So I couldn't send more money to my family... I will go to college in the future, and I will have more time..." Xia Teng said incoherently said, his face flushed.
Xu Lang's voice was a little hoarse, "I know."
"Let's change it." Xu Lang still couldn't do the same after exploiting the female star with the highest commercial value. "Instead, give me the salary for the first three months after graduation."
"No, no, three months' salary is totally not enough for what you gave today." Xia Teng said quickly, "No change. Just like this, you may not understand how important what you do today is to me. Ten years' salary , of which there are four years in college, which I've earned."
Xu Lang put this piece of paper into his bag. I thought to myself, it doesn't matter if the other party goes back on it later.
During the next drive, Xia Teng didn't sleep at all. He took the biology book and read it carefully.
After arriving at the school, Xu Lang watched Xia Teng enter the school, and then went home.
Xu Lang returned home, bought a few stocks, and checked the recent movie news online to make sure that he remembered correctly.
He thought that he would take a completely different path in this life.
In his last life and the next few years, he also invested in a few movies. Although he earned a lot, he still couldn't compare with the great miracles in the movie box office circle.
