Age: My Small World

Chapter 19 Hesitation
At six o'clock in the morning, there was almost only a little light in the whole world, and the moon was still in the sky and not completely hidden.

But some people have already gone out to work.

"Oh, it's Xiaoshan and Xiaoyuer, you guys are going to study."

The person they met was Uncle Fan Xinyi, who was from the Xin generation of the Fan family. This was based on Fan Yuanjie's generation, so in fact he should be considered a grandfather. He was also quite kind and looked at the two young men with a look of satisfaction. After all, in the whole village, they were the only two who went to high school.

As he spoke, he had a pipe in his mouth, smoking it, and wisps of smoke rose up.

"Uncle Shi, good morning."

"Tenth uncle, school starts today." Xiao Yuer replied with a smile.

Her mother is the daughter of the Fan family, so naturally she has to call him uncle.

"Okay, okay, Xiaoyuer, did you bring your dry food? Don't go hungry at noon."

Fan Xinyi also knew about Cheng Xiaoyu's family situation, but unfortunately, it was not easy for everyone, and sometimes he himself was powerless to help.

"I've brought it. Uncle, we'll leave first. We'll be late later." Cheng Xiaoyu smiled sweetly.

"Okay, go ahead." The old man waved his hand with satisfaction.

"Uncle Shi, please slow down." Yang Jun also called out.

"Xiaoshan, please take better care of Xiaoyuer and don't let her get bullied."

"Don't worry, she's the only one who bullies others." Yang Jun had just said that when he felt the corner of his clothes being pulled. When he turned around, he saw a pair of white eyes.

After leaving the village, we headed north on a rougher road, which was almost straight.

"What do you mean I'm bullying others? It's obvious that they have bullied you. I'm helping you out of kindness..." Cheng Xiaoyu was still thinking about his words on the way, feeling extremely indignant.

"How do you say that?"

"You take my kindness for granted?" Yang Jun added.

"That's right, if you get bullied again next time, I will definitely not help you." Cheng Xiaoyu pouted.

Yang Jun couldn't help laughing when he saw this and said, "I was just joking with Uncle Shi. I remember all the times you helped me."

He hasn't forgotten the past.

"Hehe, you just like to lie!" Cheng Xiaoyu curled the corners of his mouth, but still pretended to be angry.

"Okay, okay, okay. I swear I'll never lie to Comrade Cheng Xiaoyu again. Do you think this is okay?"

"It's okay." After Cheng Xiaoyu said that, she couldn't help laughing anymore.

"Brother Xiaoshan, you used to be like a fool, but now you look much better."

She looked at Yang Jun carefully. He still looked the same, but he had become much stronger and his face was even whiter. He looked like a student from a big city.

Yang Jun noticed that the girl was staring at him. He touched his face and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with my face?"

Cheng Xiaoyu felt awkward for a moment, then looked away and said, "Just to see if you're still in a daze."

"I shouldn't do that again in the future." Yang Jun recalled and found that he did like to daydream in the past. In fact, that was a sign of memory recovery.

The two were getting closer and closer to the county town. The sky was already getting brighter and they met more and more people on the road.

At this time, Cheng Xiaoyu suddenly showed her social phobia and hid herself behind Yang Jun.

This habit seemed to have been formed in junior high school, and Yang Jun didn't think it was wrong.

"Brother Xiaoshan, do you think those pear tree seeds you planted will be successful?"

Cheng Xiaoyu suddenly asked curiously.

She had already given all the pear seeds to Yang Jun, and she also knew that he had planted these seeds behind his house. Of course, it was only a part of them, used to conceal his tracks, and more of them had been planted on the hill in the small world.

"You've planted a few too, haven't you? We'll see which one grows first," Yang Jun said casually. Cheng Xiaoyu had just wanted to try it out, and hadn't really thought about what would come out of it.

You have to know that land is very precious nowadays. Every inch of it is used to grow crops, so it is impossible to use it to grow fruit trees. Therefore, everyone is unfamiliar with fruit trees.

"Okay."

Fei County.

As soon as they stepped into the city, they unconsciously quickened their pace.

Compared with the land outside the city full of fields, the city is very different. The occasional restaurants are even more saliva-watering, and the food there is definitely better than at home.

The street is made of dirt, but it is quite flat. People are coming and going on the road, and you can occasionally see bicycles passing by.

Perhaps it is more ordinary than places like the capital, but in the eyes of people in the surrounding villages, this county town is already very lively.

It’s difficult to get a bicycle these days. Besides the ticket requirement, the high price is even more prohibitive.

However, due to industrial development in the past decade, there are more and more bicycles.

Yang Jun wanted to get a bicycle, otherwise the two-hour commute to school every day would be a waste of time and would be very tiring.

Ten kilometers a day is a lot of exercise.

In the northwest corner of the county town, a school appeared in the sight of the two people, and a City God Temple was faintly visible to the east.

The full name of the school is Feixian No. 1 Middle School. It was founded in 1952, but it only started recruiting high school classes the year before last.

Yang Jun and his classmates belong to the third batch of high school freshmen.

Unlike Yang Jun’s impression of the scene where parents sent their children to school, there were only a few students coming in and out.

After confirmation by the security guard, the two walked into the school.

Yang Jun didn't take too long to look at the school environment. After all, it was not much different from a junior high school, and the high school had only been added here not long ago.

"Don't look at it anymore, let's go report and pay the fee first."

Cheng Xiaoyu was still watching curiously, so he called her to follow.

The school is not big, and it is not difficult to find the place to pay the fees because there are people queuing in front.

There were only about a few dozen people, which showed that not many people had signed up.

"Did you bring the money?"

Yang Jun looked at the little tail behind him. She no longer had the domineering attitude to confront others, but instead looked like a little quail.

"I... I brought it." Cheng Xiaoyu held the thing tightly in her little hand, looking very nervous.

She thought about her grades and suddenly regretted coming to school.

If I didn't come to school, my mother wouldn't have to work so hard. She could also help with housework without asking for money.

My younger brother is still young and is in primary school now. What should he do?
The more she thought about it, the gloomier the little girl's face became, and she began to shrink back in her heart. She no longer had the vague excitement she had when she first came.

"what happened?"

Yang Jun saw that her face had turned pale and was a little confused.

"Did you not bring enough money? It's okay, I'll talk to the teacher later and I can make up for it later."

Tuition fees can be delayed for some time, but they must be paid in full in the end.

If Cheng Xiaoyu's family was really in trouble, he would also think about helping if he could.

Cheng Xiaoyu pursed her lips, suddenly tugged at the corner of his clothes, and whispered, "Brother Xiaoshan, what do you think about me going home now? I...I don't want to study anymore."
