I really don't want to be a teacher

……

"...fourth uncle,"

The middle-aged man led the way to the door of the main room, holding the bag of apples in one hand and fumbling for the key in his trouser pocket with the other.

And at this moment, a crisp voice sounded from the side,

"Yunyun,"

The middle-aged man paused and turned his head in response.

On the side, Lian Ge also turned his gaze to look there,

It was in the yard next door to the middle-aged man's house, and a little girl about seven or eight years old was standing by the side of the yard, stepping on her feet, looking towards this side,

The little girl had some dust on her face, and she was wearing clothes that didn't fit well. It seemed that they hadn't been changed for a long time. They were stained with dirt, and the faded clothes had been re-stained with other colors.

On the feet, one on the left and one on the right, wearing a large and a small, two sandals and slippers, one seems to be his mother's, the other seems to be his father's,

It's just that even the small pair is a bit big for a little girl.

"...Is Yunyun at home alone?"

The middle-aged man looked at the little girl and asked aloud,

"Yeah!" The little girl nodded, "I was in there just now, and I saw a big ant in there. It seemed to have lost its way, and it kept turning around inside."

The little girl stretched out her hand and pointed to the threshing bucket leaning against the outer wall under the eaves, with a happy smile on her face,

"It's so stupid. I told it where to go, but it still got lost."

Lian Ge glanced at the little girl, then at the mixing bucket. Under the leaning mixing bucket, there was a small space, cramped and dark, only the side could see some light.

"...Yunyun, where are your parents?"

"Go out, go out very early."

The little girl smiled and replied, "Before Fourth Uncle went to the mountain, Dad took Mom out just after dawn.

Dad said, I took my mother to see a doctor, and my mother said, I want to give birth to a younger brother... I will have a younger brother to play with me in the future, and then I will take him, hide and seek, and then I will hide there, he Surely you won't find me. "

Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at the smiling little girl again,

The middle-aged man, on the other hand, looked at the little girl, a little silent,

In the yard, there was a sudden silence,

Only the little girl, with a smile on her face, smiled and turned her head to look under the mixing bucket from time to time, as if she still cared about the ant.

"Yunyun, come over to Uncle Fourth, and wait for Yunyun's parents to come back at Uncle Fourth's house."

The middle-aged man forced a smile on his face, and as he spoke, he lifted the bag of dim apples in his hand,

"Look, Yunyun, what is this?"

"apple!"

Looking at the bag of apples in the middle-aged man's hand, the little girl stood on tiptoe, raised her head, and replied crisply,

Immediately afterwards, he turned his head and glanced at the mixing bucket leaning against the eaves, with some hesitation on his face,

"...But, the big ant is still inside, it got lost..."

"It's okay, Yunyun, it will come out by itself."

The middle-aged man smiled and said,

"OK then."

The little girl slowly looked away from the mixing bucket, then trotted over from the next yard,

However, just after running a few steps, the shoes that didn't fit her feet fell off.

Stopping, the little girl went back and put on the shoe,

A little cautiously, he walked over step by step.

Walking to the side of the middle-aged man, the little girl was holding the corner of her clothes, her eyes were fixed on the bag of apples, but she didn't make a sound.

"Yunyun, wait a minute, wait until Fourth Uncle washes up for you, and then you can eat, okay?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said to the little girl,

"En! Thank you, uncle four." The little girl nodded heavily, and said crisply,

The middle-aged man showed a smile on his face, and after a pause, he turned around, took the key, and opened the door of the main room.

……

"...Young man, come in and sit down."

Pushing open the main room door, the middle-aged man turned around, said something to Lian Ge, and stepped into the main room,

"In the past few days, I haven't taken care of the house much, so you will laugh at me, young man."

Lian Ge glanced at the middle-aged man and the little girl entering the main room, then moved away and walked into the main room.

In the main room, it looks a bit shabby,

In the back, there is a dining table, and beside the dining table, there are a few seats scattered.

On the dining table, there are still a few unpacked dishes and some plastic bags,

"Young man, sit down first, I'll get you a glass of water,"

He pulled out a stool and placed it behind Lian Ge. After the middle-aged man said something to Lian Ge, he turned around and bent down to look at the little girl.

"Give it to Yunyun too, wash the apples."

"I'm tired."

Lian Ge glanced at the middle-aged man, thanked him,

"Don't bother, don't bother... There is nothing to entertain at home..."

The middle-aged man shook his head,

"Thank you, Uncle Four."

The little girl turned her head to look at Lian Ge and the middle-aged man, and then said to the middle-aged man.

"No thanks, no thanks, we, Yunyun, will sit too."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man turned around with a smile, looked at the little girl and responded.

"Young man, please wait a moment."

After saying something to Lian Ge, the middle-aged man paused again, then carried the bag of apples into the backyard.

……

in the main room,

The little girl supported the stool with her hands, looked at Lian Ge with some curiosity in her eyes, but said nothing,

Lian Ge randomly found a stool, sat down, smiled slightly at the little girl, turned his gaze, and glanced at the main room.

Then he turned his gaze to the door leading to the backyard from the main room.

Chapter 312 Apple

The door to the backyard is open,

Through the backyard door, only a part of the backyard can be seen,

The roof of the backyard is covered with tiles, and only some light penetrates from the top of the courtyard wall.

On the top of the eaves, there is an incandescent lamp, the bulb is stained with smoke and dust, and along the wire, there are some cobwebs wrapped around it, and it has not been turned on.

The entire backyard seemed a bit dark.

After the middle-aged man stepped into the backyard, he walked to the side and disappeared within the range that could be seen through the backyard door.

Immediately afterwards, along with the breeze, the sound of water rang in Lian Ge's ears through the backyard door.

It seems that the middle-aged man is rinsing the water glass, or the half-stained apple.

……

"Brother, did you come from outside?"

The little girl supported the stool with her hands and did not sit down. Looking at Lian Ge, she asked timidly,

Hearing this, Lian Ge turned his gaze back to the little girl, smiled and nodded,

"Correct."

"Is it in the county?" The little girl straightened up,

"Last time, I went to the county town with my parents. There are so many people in the county town. It's so lively. Everyone wears new clothes for the New Year... It's just that I went there once, and my parents didn't take me there afterwards. ...but I remember it clearly, I dreamed about it a few nights ago."

The little girl smiled happily and said, with longing in her eyes,

"Brother, are you from the county?" Looking at Lian Ge, the little girl looked forward to it and asked again,

Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at the little girl, paused,

"It's farther than that."

"Is it farther than the county seat? Where is that? Brother, is the place where you live as lively as the county seat?"

The little girl raised her head with anticipation in her eyes,

"The place where I live is relatively quiet, but there is also a county town in my place."

With a slight smile, Lian Ge said to the little girl,

"Where is that... Is it as far as the other side of the sky?"

The little girl stood on tiptoe and looked out of the open main room door,

It's just the end of her sight, and it's just a mountain not far away,

"... Last year, an uncle passed by here, and he told me that as long as I study hard and go to school, when I grow up, I will be able to go farther, farther than the mountains. It's even farther." The little girl turned around and said,

He raised his head again and looked at Lian Ge,

"But what is school?"

There was doubt in the little girl's clean eyes, she looked at Lian Ge suspiciously,

Looking into the little girl's clean eyes, Lian Ge didn't answer.

"...The other day, I heard my parents say that when I was older, they would send me out to work,"

She didn't seem to want to get an answer either, the little girl continued talking, but her eyes became more and more confused,

"What is a part-time job? Can you go to a far away place, to a place as lively as the county town?"

"My father also said that if I go to work, my brother can go to school. Is school really that important?"

"If it's really that important, let my brother go to school."

The little girl said, her voice echoed in the main room,

……

"Yunyun, don't think that way, if you can go to school, you must go to school."

Holding a plate of washed apples and a glass of water, the middle-aged man re-entered the main room, and at the same time said to the little girl,

"...But Dad said that I will marry into someone else's family in the future. I am from another family. I don't need to go to school. My brother is from our family."

"Nonsense! You and your brother are the same, you know?"

"Is it really the same?" The little girl raised her head and asked with doubts in her eyes,

Hearing this, the middle-aged man opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

Just kept silent, put the plate of half-stained apples on the dining table,

"...Yunyun, eat an apple."

"Ok!"
