Chapter 1057: Occupy the Magpie's Nest 35
Zhao's mother said, "I heard that the government has issued a document that next year, college students will no longer receive subsidies, and they still have to pay tuition. We have many children in our family, and the expenses are high. Your mother and I are the only ones working at home, and we don't have enough money to pay for your tuition. You might as well stop studying and find a good job in the capital to earn some money for your brother's dowry."
Zhao Hong is a college student, so of course she is unwilling to stop studying after just one year.
She protested, "Mom, my brother is still in college. It will take him a few years to get married. When he starts working, he can save up the money for the wedding gift."
Zhao's mother: "Your brother is about to graduate and is also old enough to get married. How can he wait a few more years? He will be too old if he waits a few more years."
Grandma Zhao yelled at her, "Just drop out of school if I tell you to. You are a money-loser. Why do you need to study so much? You will belong to someone else's family in the future. Your parents have so many children, and they are willing to support you to go to college. They have done their best for you. Don't be ungrateful."
Father Zhao also said, "Xiaohong, if the college student subsidy had not been cancelled, we would not have let you drop out of school. But now the college student subsidy is going to be cancelled, and your mother and I are struggling to pay the tuition for your sister and your brother and sister with our salary. We don't have the money to pay your tuition."
Zhao Hong cried, "Why didn't you let my sister drop out of school, but asked me to drop out? Woohoo... I don't want to drop out of school. I want to graduate from college."
Father Zhao glared at her, "Your sister is already a sophomore and will graduate in one year, and you are only a freshman and you still have two years to graduate. Of course it is more cost-effective for you to drop out of school."
Zhao Hong's older brothers and sisters started school late. Zhao Lan was only a junior at the age of 23, and Zhao Cui was only a sophomore at the age of 20. With three college students in the Zhao family, they used to receive a subsidy of 500 to 600 yuan per month.
Now, the country is going to cancel this subsidy, and the ones who are most distressed are Zhao's father and mother.
"No matter how you make trouble, your family will not pay for your tuition. If you have the ability, you can earn your tuition yourself." Zhao's mother said.
Grandma Zhao scolded, "Why earn tuition fees? What's the point of studying so much for a money-loser? Come back and find a job. You can earn a few hundred yuan a month to save up for Zhao Lan's dowry."
Zhao Hong cried, "Wuwu, I will never drop out of school. You are just partial. There are five children in the family, but you are partial to them. You only dislike me. I am the one you picked up. Wuwu... Just give up the idea of letting me drop out of school. I will not drop out of school. Wuwu, even if I drop out of school, I will not give you the money I earn from work. You want me to make money to marry Zhao Lan. It's wishful thinking."
Zhao Hong cried and shouted for a while, then ran away.
Zhao Hong first ran to a nearby small park and cried. After crying for a long time, she began to worry about her tuition fees.
She suddenly thought of Fu Yuanchun.
Fu Yuanchun had some money in his hands, and if she went to borrow it, Fu Yuanchun would definitely lend it to her.
Although she and Fu Yuanchun had fallen out before, they had been good friends for many years and it was impossible for them to break up completely just because of a few quarrels.
Besides, going to college is a big deal for her, and Fu Yuanchun would definitely not fail to help her in such a big matter.
Zhao Hong thought so, and she also came to the family building to find Yuanchun.
However, Zhao Hong knocked on the door for a long time, but no one opened it. She thought Fu Yuanchun had gone out, and was about to sit on the stairs outside her house and wait for her, when the neighbor next door opened the door and told her that Yuanchun no longer lived there, but lived in her grandfather's ancestral home.
As for where her grandfather's ancestral home is, no one knows.
Yuanchun didn't tell anyone.
Zhao Hong left the family building in disappointment.
After that, every afternoon, Zhao Hong would come to the family building and knock on Yuanchun's door. If no one opened the door, she would leave.
