Chapter 56 The heroine’s cannon fodder sister (8)
Jiang Lai sneered.
"This self-reliant heroine stepped on the flesh and blood of her own sister."
In the early 1980s, every household had paid for the public grain, and the food left in their hands could barely feed the family. At this time, it was difficult to survive, let alone send the two children at home to school.
Even the captain's family cannot avoid this situation.
What's more, Hetang Village is so terribly poor that girls from other villages are unwilling to marry, and girls from their own village are running away without their lives. This has led to the village becoming poorer and more backward, with a large number of people left. The gang's bachelor idled around in the village all day.
Jiang Lai is smarter than Jiang Qu, after all the teachers who have taught them say so.
But Jiang Shansheng's ability is limited. It's already great to be able to support two girls through junior high school. Now that both girls have to go to high school, the family's situation has become even more tight.
In the original work, Jiang Qu’s grades after being reborn were still not as good as Jiang Lai’s, so during the three years when Jiang Lai was in junior high school, Jiang Qu began to borrow novels from classmates, including Jin Yong’s, Zhang Ailing’s, and a lot of books that had nothing to do with study. I lent them to Jiang Lai one by one.
From the second grade of junior high school, Jiang Lai's grades plummeted.
In the third year of junior high school, she was even more addicted to novels and couldn't extricate herself. At the end, Jiang Shansheng said something angrily that she couldn't read it and just stopped reading it.
So Jiang Lai, who was already frustrated, took the initiative to drop out of school.
Now, the only one who can continue studying safely is Jiang Qu.
In the next one or two years, Jiang Qiuhe greatly improved his family's living conditions by doing some small business. However, Jiang Lai, who dropped out of school, had long lost interest in studying and stayed at home reading novels all day long, imagining that he could meet someone like Jin Yong's martial arts novels. The man inside is like a hero.
He Xing's poverty scared her away.
Jiang Qu was admitted to college, and then introduced Zhang Wei, his male classmate who failed in high school and failed to enter college, to Jiang Lai.
The boy was fair and handsome, and he was also the accountant of the village. He was good at talking and coaxing people. Jiang Lai quickly fell in love with him and actively begged Jiang Shansheng to marry him.
Needless to say what happens next.
Zhang Wei's fair skin was violent and cruel. Jiang Lai only found out after getting married that this man had pursued his sister Jiang Qu in high school. Later, because he failed to pursue success, he went around the school to speak ill of Jiang Qu.
However, Jiang Qu was generous and gentle. After he was admitted to college, he generously forgave Zhang Wei for all the despicable things he had done before, and directly introduced his biological sister to him.
Because Jiang Lai and Jiang Qu looked similar, the man was kind to her in the first month or two after getting married, but soon his true colors were revealed, and any unsatisfactory things in work and life were vented on Jiang Lai, until the end He died, and when Jiang Lai thought she could finally regain her life, she never imagined that the real life where life was worse than death had just begun.
From the perspective of the original work, everything Jiang Qu did was reasonable.
The novels brought to Jiang Lai were to increase her literary literacy and improve her Chinese language performance. However, Jiang Lai did not have high self-control.
As for introducing a male classmate to Jiang Lai, if he has a junior high school degree and a high school degree, and the man is an accountant who eats commercial food, that can be considered a good match.
In the end, everything Jiang Lai experienced seemed to be her own fault, but if you look carefully, you can taste the chilling truth hidden behind it.
The original owner envied his sister until his death.
She never understood until her death why she had fallen to this point. She had obviously done very well before and her teachers liked her so much.
She obviously had an encounter with He Xing, so why did he pretend to be poor and pitiful in front of her even though he was so rich.
The man she married was obviously a young talent recommended by her sister, so why did he turn into a jackal and a tiger after marriage?
He obviously had his own children and the closest relatives, so why did he end up with one dead body and two dead ones in the end?
She couldn't understand.
After all, she is just a very small character in the book. No one cares about her fate. Everyone just needs to know that she deserves it and brings it upon herself.
Jiang Lai figured out what she couldn't understand.
When I regained consciousness, I had already arrived at the grain collection station.
Everyone carried their own grains and began to queue up to collect the grains. Jiang Lai followed Jiang Qiuhe, holding a small book in his hand.
After Jiang Qu got off the car, she went to buy a tutorial book. Jiang Qiuhe gave her one yuan to buy the book.
Jiang Qiuhe also gave Jiang Lai a dollar and asked her to play by herself and come back when the queue was over.
Jiang Lai shook his head.
"If I don't go, what if I lose myself again?"
Jiang Qiuhe couldn't help but laugh, and rubbed Jiang Lai's head with his big rough hands. He didn't stop with satisfaction until she hit him again and again, until he was covered in hair.
Jiang Lai finally figured out that Jiang Qiuhe, a future entrepreneur, was still a hidden jerk and would only be happy if he was beaten.
Of course Jiang Qu knew what achievements her brother would achieve in the future, so she was particularly concerned about Jiang Qiuhe at home. After going out to buy books, she went to a restaurant and bought two big buns, one with meat and one with vegetables. After buying, she went to the restaurant with He Xing I had a good meal in a restaurant, which cost five or six yuan, which was equivalent to a day's wages for a capable laborer.
He Xingquehua didn't even blink.
After leaving the hotel, He Xing went to do his own thing. Jiang Qu asked him to be careful. He Xing didn't say anything, but just looked at her thoughtfully.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
"Nothing, I'm leaving."
Jiang Qu felt baffled. There was something wrong with He Xing's eyes just now. It was not as enthusiastic as when he looked at him before, but seemed to be more suspicious.
This made her a little uneasy, but she quickly calmed down.
Anyway, there is still a lot of time. When she is admitted to college, she will have the capital to stand by He Xing's side.
Returning to the grain collection station, Jiang Qu immediately saw Jiang Qiuhe and Jiang Lai standing in front of the team, talking, laughing, and joking with each other.
Jiang Qiuhe grabbed Jiang Lai's pigtails, and Jiang Lai kicked and hit him with considerable force, but Jiang Qiuhe grinned with a row of white teeth and looked at Jiang Lai with soft eyes.
Jiang Qu paused for a moment, then stepped forward to interrupt the two of them.
"Xiao Lai, stop bullying my brother. My eldest brother has been tired all day and didn't even drink a sip of water."
As he said this, Jiang Qu handed the bun over.
"Come on, brother, eat a steamed bun to quench your hunger. I have some water here, so you can drink some too."
Jiang Qiuhe took the bun with a smile. Before Jiang Qu could take out the water, he broke open the bun and handed half of the bun to Jiang Lai.
"I just ate the fried cakes that Sanya brought over. I'm not hungry now. You and Sanya should share this." (End of Chapter)
