In the dimly lit room, the light bulb above the head that has been used for a long time and has not been changed, spilled little light in the room.

The fifteen-year-old child was sitting at the table, looking dullly at the heavy snow outside the window.

Her father was sitting on the sofa and watching TV reports about this year's heavy snowfall, while her mother was sitting opposite her.

The family remained silent, only the reporters on the TV kept making voices.

The sound is a bit harsh. The worn-out TV speakers should be retired long ago, and sometimes they make a piercing sound, but the people here have never considered buying a new one, even a second-hand one.

Because...poor.

Being poor is not a shameful thing, because many people in this world are very poor.

But being poor is a very hurtful thing. Because of being poor, many small things that may be inconspicuous in the eyes of others have become big things, just like changing to a new TV.

It's like... paying the child's school expenses.

The toilet in the bathroom made a sound of pumping water, and then the door opened, and a boy who was a little older than a girl walked out in a daze.

He hid in the toilet for a long time, half an hour or longer, but still couldn't hide from this conversation.

"Come here, sit down..."

The man stood up, walked over to the table and sat down, the boy walked over hurriedly, glanced at the girl guiltily, and sat down quietly.

"Heavy snow this year... The factory decided to start construction after March, which also means that we have no income for more than two to three months."

"But the school's notice has come. We must pay the money by February, otherwise they will remove your name from the school book."

"But the money in my hand can only support one person to go to school at most..."

It was still silent, and no one spoke.

This heavy snow that lasted for more than a month ruined the lives of many people. It was obvious that life had just improved, and they encountered such terrible weather.

Continued heavy snow has disrupted road traffic, and intercity highways and interstate highways have come to a complete standstill.

There are also many problems in the city. Many factories and warehouses have been crushed by heavy snow. Before this, no one would feel that the light and fluttering snow would bring such a terrible disaster to the world!

The fact is, they are too optimistic.

The shutdown of factories means that workers cannot get paid through labor, and a small amount of savings can only barely support them.

If you add the tuition fees of two students...many families can't support them at all.

This is not a family’s own problem, but a whole society’s problem.

At present, federal education is basically monopolized in the hands of the education group. They have never considered reducing the burden on student families. They will only ask for more.

Each student's tuition fee ranges from tens of dollars to hundreds of dollars per semester, plus the cost of buying various books, more than two hundred dollars, this is a trouble for families with money problems. .

Just like the family in front of them, they couldn't afford more than 400 yuan to continue their schooling with their two children. One person must be left behind.

This fall will stop for a year.

They won't give that child a new grade, they will definitely have to wait until this time next year.

But at this time next year, a difference of one year, how can the child's study be maintained?

Regardless of the fact that the federal middle and lower education is not so concerned about students' performance, at least you have to prove that you are not a fool and have some understanding of what you have learned.

Missing a year may mean that you will not go to school again.

The girl's expression was very cold, her hands tightly pinched the corners of her clothes and pinched hard.

The pain of fingernails embedded in the palm is not as pessimistic as her pessimism. The future of life is like this dim room, with no light in sight.

She has a hunch that the person who cannot go to school will be herself.

The boy also has a hunch, his hunch is that he can go to school, but his sister can't.

The man tilted his head and glanced at his wife, "So we made a very difficult decision...", he called out the girl's name, "Can you suspend school for your brother for a year?"

"We are still discussing, the result is not necessarily like this..."

Everyone knew that this was a lie, and tears suddenly accumulated in the girl's eyes. She bit her lip stubbornly, a trace of red blood spreading outward along the texture of her lips.

She did not say no, nor did she agree, but just looked at her father.

Maybe her gaze was too "fierce", maybe it was her inner guilt, and the room fell into silence again.

The man did not exercise the power of the head of his family to require it to do that. He felt that he had no ability to cause these problems.

But in fact, he has worked very hard. He goes to work every day at 8 o'clock and finishes work at 7:30 in the evening. He has 11 hours of work a day plus a half-hour break at noon.

He has never been lazy, and has not been deducted from his salary for not working seriously, but he still can't pay so much money to the two children now.

Blame the **** immigrants!

His painful expression was full of anger towards immigrant workers, who lowered their wages in order to get a job.

Originally, his salary was more than three hundred and thirty yuan, but now, he can only get the minimum wage, which is dozens of yuan less every month.

In addition to changes in wages, benefits have also been reduced a lot. For example, the lunch at noon has become a vegetarian diet without meat.

For example, the original only ten hours of working hours have turned into eleven hours under the request of those immigrants to work overtime voluntarily.

You can not work overtime, but when the factory needs to adjust your position, you may be fired.

Capitalists never talk to their employees about corporate sentiments. Only when they need to use employees, will they take this thing out as a sacred mission to promote it.

The woman looked at the family in pain, and her heart was very painful. She took off her pearl earrings, which were left to her by her grandmother.

"Sell this, maybe I can pay for her tuition."

The man glanced at it, "It's only worth twenty yuan at most!" He paused, "And this is your only jewelry."

Sitting in the dim light, the family fell into despair for the tuition fee of more than two hundred yuan.

They will despair for two hundred dollars now, and then despair for other money. This may be an ordinary thing that ordinary families must face.

Do your best to get through one difficulty, and then usher in the next one!

There is no shortcut to a poor life, because the shortcut is money!

If you have money, there will be no trouble.

Without the girl's consent, the girl has no ability to change anything. She can only stand up after a period of silence, silently return to her room, hiding in the quilt and crying secretly.

She knows that she can't blame anyone, this society is like this, the status of women will never be as good as men, and the same is true when facing future choices.

Even if her study is better than her brother, there is no reference value.

Let boys go to school and girls get married. This may be the purest and most basic idea and practice of ordinary families.

You know, a girl will change her surname after she marries, and people will not invest so much in her unless she never marries in her life.

But is that possible?

The next day, the man took the boy and left the house in the wind and snow. They went to school to pay the tuition in advance, and heard that there would be a bigger blizzard in a few days.

It's not good if the traffic in the city is blocked.

The girl looked at her elder brother who kept turning back in the wind and snow, she could only cry silently.

She started to think about doing something. She couldn't do nothing this year. Maybe she would have her first job in her life.

Isn't it normal for teenage girls to go to work?

The woman appeared behind her, stroking her hair, "Don't hate anyone, at least you can still live in a warm room, maybe the food is not so delicious, but it can fill your stomach."

"To learn to be tolerant, this is our destiny..."

Everyone originally thought that the matter was over here, but they didn't expect that when the two men at home came back at noon, things changed.

A smile appeared on the man’s face. He found the girl, a little excited, "Listen, your school problem is solved, and you can go to school with your brother."

The girl stared at her father and shook her head slightly, as if she was saying "Don't be kidding."

It wasn't until her father nodded vigorously again that tears came out quickly.

"What happened?" The woman hurried over, she opened the curtains.

The two days of wind and snow stopped for a while at this time, the sun also came out, and the room became brighter!

"I saw Ms. Catherine, did you know, that commoner flower!" The man's mood was always a bit agitated, he was a little upside down when he spoke, and some of them couldn't express his thoughts well.

"She asked about our family's situation, knowing that we have a child who can't go to school because there is no tuition ~lightnovelpub.net~ is still a girl, so she is willing to help us, free of charge!"

The woman got excited too, she hugged her daughter tightly, "It's great, it's great..."

The man also nodded and said, "Yes, that's great. This year, many students have had problems. This Blizzard came at an untimely time. Fortunately, Ms. Catherine appeared in time."

"Oh, yes, and Mr. Lynch, I saw Mr. Lynch too!"

The man looked at his sons and daughters with emotion, "They are the real big people going out in Sabine. Few people can be like them, and they can remember us poor people when they are developed."

His feelings are justified. Not all donations for charity evenings can be used by those who really need it.

Sometimes, those fundraisers don't tell people that they generally only spend some percent of the total donation on certain groups of people, and more are the maintenance funds of foundations or other institutions.

At the end, the man looked at the girl, "Maybe you will still see them in two days..."
