[Rebirth to the Future] Diplomacy

"Give you."

A child of eight or nine years old is an age where sympathy overflows.Hearing the little devil's stomach rumbling from hunger, Le Tang broke the bread in half and handed it to him.

The little ghost swallowed his saliva, feeling that his empty stomach seemed to be even hungrier.But seeing that there seemed to be not much food in Le Tang's hands, he still shook his head and rejected Le Tang's kindness: "I don't want it."

Le Tang said: "Brother said it's wrong to be brave! I'm in cultural class this morning, so I don't need to consume too much energy. It's no problem to share half of the bread with you."

Only then did the little ghost awkwardly accept the food that Le Tang handed over.

His name is Qu Ze, and he is from the Qu family in the capital.

He didn't understand why his father threw him so far away. Although the Qu family wanted to come out early and become independent, it was really hard to live in a backward and chaotic marginal city like Yunlaigang.

Moreover, the money he secretly brought out was stolen by the thief as soon as he got out of the car, and now he really has nothing.

He hadn't eaten for a day and a half.

When Qu Ze ate half of the bread, Le Tang asked, "Did you get separated from your family?"

Qu Ze said: "No, I will support myself next."

Le Tang stared at him blankly: "Feed yourself?"

Qu Ze said: "Do you know the way? Take me to Yunlaigang Public School, and I will apply for a work-study program after I finish my report. That's all." That's what his mentor said before he left.

These two days of bumping into a wall made Qu Ze learn to behave. Before he was sure of living his own way, he felt that it would be better for him to follow the normal route obediently.

Seeing Qu Ze's gloomy expression, Le Tang felt that he had asked something he shouldn't have asked.He immediately replied: "I know where the public school is, my brother and I both study there."

elder brother?

This is the second time Le Tang mentioned this character.Qu Ze took a little interest in the person corresponding to this title, and he said politely: "Then please take me there."

Le Tang glanced at him and said, "Actually, the public school is very close to here, just behind the pointed clock tower in front..."

Qu Ze: "..."

Le Tang comforted: "It's okay, you are not a local, and the accent of the people here is very mixed, if you go up to ask for directions, either he can't understand, or you can't understand, it's normal if you don't find it. Go, I'll take you there .”

Qu Ze obediently followed behind him.

After the report, Qu Ze applied for a work-study program, but he was growing up, and the work-study subsidy was not enough for him.

Qu Ze struggled to adapt to the free Datongpu dormitory in the public school and the lowest food in the cafeteria.

Fortunately, Datongpu is full of children who are living a miserable life like him, and there are people who will respond to whatever bitterness he wants to pour out.

Moreover, Le Tang probably felt that he was very pitiful, and often came to tutor his studies, fearing that he would not be able to keep up with the progress.

Qu Ze gradually learned about the other party's family from Le Tang. His father was a lecturer at Yunlai Hong Kong University, and he studied medieval history. If there were seminars in nearby states, it would take half a month to go out.Le Tang also has an older brother named Rong Pei, who usually takes care of the meal when Rong's father is not at home, and he is very good at cooking.

Le Tang said: "After I asked my brother, I will take you home to taste my brother's cooking."

Qu Ze nodded calmly.

In fact, he doesn't really believe that Le Tang's family can have any good food. Think about it, how much can a university lecturer earn?It may be very difficult to support myself, and there are two children in their family!Le Tang also mentioned that their house is rented, which is another expense.

And what did Le Tang say?His father was also a frequent participant in academic seminars.

Le Tang didn't know about that thing, but Qu Ze knew it.Not including the round-trip fare, not including the out-of-home accommodation fee, just looking at the entrance fee is enough to discourage many people.

——In this way, it is not bad for them to have enough to eat.

Qu Ze liked the warm-hearted Le Tang, but he didn't like the brother he talked about.

Le Tang has a good heart and a pure heart, everything is written on his face.Half the time he came looking for him was talking about his brother, apparently because his brother was away.

Qu Ze is still a child, so his temperament naturally has the characteristics of a child.Le Tang is his first friend in Yunlaigang, who likes his friends always talking about someone else?He also praised that guy so much that there is nothing in the sky!

Qu Ze decided not to like that Rong Pei.

What Qu Ze didn't expect was that before he had the opportunity to visit Rong's house, he met the "brother" Le Tang called.

It was a thread held by a friend in the same dormitory, and that guy said this: "Ah Ze, let me tell you, there is a brother who can receive some relatively easy, well-paid jobs, let's go find him together."

Of course Qu Ze would not push the money out, he quickly put on the school uniform provided by the public school, and followed his friends out.

They walked along the school road to the public school's Merlin, where a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy in a public school uniform was chatting with a group of juniors and juniors who were half a head shorter than him.

He had a gentle smile on his face, which seemed a little unreal under the cover of plum blossoms. When he got closer, he could hear his patient voice.

The whole body of this person exuded the warmth of the warm spring sun.

Only those eyes are sparse and pale like the plum blossoms behind him.

Qu Ze hated this person at first glance, because this person gave him a feeling of hypocrisy to the bone.

Qu Ze hates this kind of person the most.

He was about to turn around and leave when he heard his friend say, "Brother Rong came here as a work-study student just like us, but later because of his great advertising ideas, many merchants became familiar with him. If there is a recommendation from him, the merchants will give priority to it." Consider! Compensation and benefits will be better too.”

Qu Ze was taken aback.

Allow?

He asked, "This... What's the name of Senior Brother Rong?"

The friend said: "It's called Rong Pei, haven't you heard of it? Brother Rong is a person who receives scholarships every year. This year's opening ceremony was hosted by him... Oh yes, you weren't there when the school started."

Qu Ze looked at Rong Pei blankly.

This is... Le Tang's brother?

Qu Ze stayed where he was by a ghostly messenger.

Rong Pei quickly calmed down the chattering juniors and juniors. He instructed everyone to fill out the application form and told them what to pay attention to. Those who got the job left slowly, and finally only Qu Ze and his friends were left. friend.

Qu Ze's friend pulled him forward and said to Rong Pei: "Brother Rong, we also want to find something to do."

Rong Pei glanced at them, and quickly took out an application form and handed it to him: "You go and fill it out."

Qu Ze's friend rushed to the side of the stone table to fill in various information.

Qu Ze noticed that Rong Pei was examining himself, and subconsciously straightened his back.

Rong Pei paused, then asked with a smile, "Are you Qu Ze?"

Qu Ze nodded.

Rong Pei said, "That Qu Ze from the Qu family in the capital?"

Qu Ze opened his eyes slightly.

Rong Pei raised his hand and patted his head: "You separate from your friends later and then come to me, I have something to tell you."

Qu Ze responded subconsciously: "Okay."

Five minutes later, Qu Ze found an excuse to separate from his friend, and ran back to the Meilin.At this moment, Rong Pei was sitting at the stone table talking with a middle-aged man. The other party didn't know what he said to him, and they both laughed.At the end, the middle-aged man said: "These newcomers look good, and the introduction fee will be credited to your card soon."

Rong Pei got up and sent him away.

Qu Ze listened halfway, but was a little unclear.

But he is from the Qu family in the capital, and he has seen a lot of things. With just a few words, he has already guessed: the so-called good job is a lie, and this guy is just like those hateful headhunters and intermediaries. Trick them into doing something!

When the middle-aged man walked away, Qu Ze walked up to Rong Pei and hummed: "You are really too much, even your younger brothers and younger sisters!"

Rong Pei's expression didn't change at all after hearing Qu Ze's words, he said, "Didn't you get paid?"

Qu Ze said: "Although I got it, but..."

Rong Pei interrupted his questioning: "Is your salary lower than those outside?"

Qu Ze said: "You are obviously taking us for referral fees!"

Rong Pei said: "Without the certificate issued by me at the school, do you think all the shops accept you child labor?"

Qu Ze said: "We can drive it ourselves!"

Rong Pei said flatly: "I didn't force you to come to me either."

Qu Ze looked contemptuous: "How kind you pretend to be, but it's not for money!"

Rong Pei raised his eyebrows and asked back: "You don't need money?"

Qu Ze hesitated.

Rong Pei looked at the time on the wrist communicator, and said, "I still have something to do, so I'll tell you straight." He looked at Qu Ze, "I hope you don't come near Le Tang again, what's the matter?" You can come to me directly for help."

Qu Ze was taken aback.

Although he didn't put Le Tang in an important position, after all, Le Tang was the first friend he made after coming to Yunlaigang...

Qu Ze said: "I don't care for your help! You must be taking revenge for not letting me get close to Le Tang! You are a hypocrite!"

Rong Pei said, "That's up to you."

After speaking, he turned and left without looking at Qu Ze again.

Qu Ze held his breath in his heart.

People of his age love to be against others, and when he heard that Rong Pei wouldn't let him be friends with Le Tang, he wanted to join Le Tang.

Le Tang was very soft-hearted, and took him home under his soft-hearted pampering.

Qu Ze smiled triumphantly, with his chin raised, he showed his might to Pei Yaowu.

Rong Pei never expressed any dissatisfaction in front of Le Tang, but he always spoke honestly to him behind his back.

Qu Ze felt that he hated him even more.

——This guy is really hypocritical, even pretending to be in front of his younger brother!

Grasping Le Tang's weakness of not knowing how to reject others, Qu Ze ran to Rong's house when he had nothing to do.

This situation didn't end until the day Father Rong came back.

Father Rong seemed to know his father. After meeting him, he asked a few words, and after learning about his current living conditions, he said to Rong Pei: "In the future, prepare Ozawa's meal as well. He is exactly When you grow your body, you can't be hungry."

Rong Pei responded, "En."

Qu Ze was very happy.

Although he doesn't like Rong Pei, the food Rong Pei cooks is really delicious, after a few meals, he really wants to hang on.

And he noticed that Rong Pei almost obeyed Rong's father's words, it seemed that he cared about this father very much.

Qu Ze immediately thought of a way to make Rong Pei's life difficult.

It is very easy for eight or nine-year-old children to please adults. Because of the ulterior secret in his heart, Qu Ze, like Le Tang, became Rong's father's follower. pounce on.

On this day, Father Rong came back at sunset as usual, Le Tang rushed forward and hugged Father Rong's arm first, and Qu Ze ran over to ask for a hug, not to be outdone.

Father Rong picked them up from left to right, and asked them kindly what they did today.

Not only do I want to be friends with Le Tang, I also want to snatch your father away!Qu Ze hugged Rong's father and thought maliciously.

After secretly having fun for a while, he couldn't help raising his head to look at Rong Pei.

Rong Pei seemed to be aware of Father Rong's return at this time, he stood up and shouted respectfully: "Father."

Father Rong nodded to him.

The father and son looked like two strangers.
