Chapter 111: Carrier Pigeon: A child with a mother is a treasure (5)
The second letter is about Guo Li.
[Fengying, please ask Guo Li for me. If he doesn't go back to Baoding for the New Year this year, is it okay for me to go to Beijing to visit him? ]
【Cuckoo~】
Such humble motherly love...
Why do I feel a little sad?
In front of the endless stream of customers lining up to buy donkey meat hotpot, Li Pandi is such a cheerful and generous woman┭┮﹏┭┮
When it came to his own biological son's turn, he felt so humble that he wished he could lower himself to the dust.
That brat still doesn't appreciate it...
There must be something pitiful about a hateful person. If there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. The Guo family was unwilling to support Guo Li's studies, and he almost couldn't even get a junior high school diploma.
In addition, after meeting Li Pandi that day, he mentioned his biological mother's name in front of the whole family, which embarrassed his stepmother and younger brother. He was kicked out of the house by his angry father that day and left to fend for himself.
Guo Li inherited Li Pandi's stubbornness. He picked up the two hundred yuan that his stepmother threw on the ground like a beggar, went to the station, bought a train ticket, and headed straight for the capital.
Where is the best place to make money in Baoding?! It is better to go to the capital to broaden your horizons!
Fortunately, the journey was short and after more than an hour, the train finally arrived at the terminal.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of Beijing West Railway Station, he was stunned when he looked at the crowd.
Well, I don't know how to describe it because I haven't read enough books. He was shouting in his heart, "What the hell?" Why are there so many people, so many cars, and so many buildings? Even the old lady sweeping the street with a red armband looks like someone you can't mess with.
The auntie said proudly: The little brat has some good sense. We Beijing aunties are all very skilled!
If Li Pandi had not received the news in time and quickly borrowed a phone to contact Wang Fengying, Guo Li would have been kidnapped by the kidnappers.
Don't think that there are no bad people in this big capital. There are many dark places and dirty things happening among the lowest classes.
Wang Fengying still remembers that after she hung up the phone, she got on her electric bike and ran to the West Station. At first glance, she saw a frightened little boy in the corner being pulled and pulled by several men.
She yelled [Guo Li! ]
The boy immediately turned his head to look at her, and she knew she had found the right person. She swung her helmet and beat those men with bad intentions to a pulp.
There was a special police jeep parked at the exit of the West Station. It should have been a deterrent to the scoundrels. These people were really bold...
From that day on, Guo Li truly realized his own identity and understood how reckless and ignorant he was to go north alone at the age of fifteen.
Wang Fengying talked about her relationship with Li Pandyi. He just listened with his head down and said nothing, but his tightly clenched cheeks still revealed his inner unrest.
Wang Fengying brought the child back to her own courtyard house, where there happened to be a guest room, so she cleaned it up and let him stay there first. She would send the child back to his hometown when she had convinced him.
After several days, Guo Li made up his mind that he did not want to go back to Baoding. He must find a job in the capital to earn money and support himself.
His powerful words, spoken like an oath, shocked the little fat boy who had just finished his homework and peeked over.
Wang Fengying didn't know whether to laugh or cry. [Guo Li, you are only fifteen years old, which is considered a child laborer. No company, big or small, would dare to hire you. You will be fined a large sum of money!]
Guo Li was stunned!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ, they didn't even want the cheap labor that was delivered to their doorstep, what were those big bosses thinking? !
[Then...then I can be an apprentice without any salary, right?! ]
[Haha, you still know about apprenticeship. In a place where you are unfamiliar with the place, even if you dare to offer yourself to be an apprentice, you still have to see if the other person is willing to teach you the skills to make money. If you teach your apprentice, the master will starve to death. Not to mention wages, even if you kowtow to the master and give him money, he may not necessarily accept you. Child, you still think the problem is too simple...]
[But my grandfather was recruiting apprentices in the village. He had good skills, so people from all over the village sent their children to work for him. Those people worked for free in the first three years and had to pay a monthly living allowance. After three years, they started to pick up the chisel only after my grandfather gave his approval...]
As Guo Li spoke, his voice became lower. Apparently, he himself had figured out the twists and turns.
[Xiao Li, why didn't your grandfather teach you carpentry? ]
The little fat boy suddenly interrupted and got a cold eye from his mother.
[My stepmother wouldn't let me. She said I was being cunning and treacherous and couldn't bear the hardship. Her son had to carry on the Guo family's business...]
After that, the three of them fell silent, speechless about the partiality of two generations of the Guo family.
[Mom, otherwise, you can ask Xiaoli to help you carry the vegetables. He is stronger than you anyway! ]
The fat boy poked Guo Li's arm with his short, fat finger, and there was an obvious bulge of muscle there.
Good boy, whenever he was upset, he would go to the wood warehouse in the backyard to move some things around. Over time, he developed a body of muscular muscles.
It's a pity that he is still a little short. He is fifteen years old, but looks only eleven or twelve. He must not have gotten enough nutrition during puberty.
This awful stepmother, the blind father, and the stingy and mercenary grandparents of the Guo family who live in the same old house with their son's family and pretend to be deaf and dumb, are not good people.
Guo Li looked up shyly, with a light shining brightly in his eyes. Wang Fengying couldn't bear to see the child suffer with her, but she couldn't say no.
So, at three o'clock in the morning of the next day, Guo Li followed Wang Fengying to go to the wholesale market to buy goods and sell vegetables. The kid was also tough. He was so sleepy that he fell off the tricycle but didn't cry out. He persisted for three years.
Li Pandi thanked Fengying for helping her discipline her son and taking such good care of him. She sent almost all of her earnings from the stall to her, except for enough money to buy rice, flour, oil and gas, saying that she wanted it as her son's living expenses.
How could Wang Fengying possibly accept this money? She put it all on a separate card and gave it to the stubborn Guo Licun.
After turning eighteen, Guo Li also became a delivery rider. All his knowledge came from following Wang Fengying who was selling vegetables. Seeing that she worked part-time as a deliveryman in addition to selling vegetables and earned a lot of money, he had been tempted a long time ago.
In the past two months, he went to Xicheng and lived in the staff dormitory provided by the rider station manager. He rarely came to the front gate.

At the police station, Wang Fengying filled out several applications and handed them over to the household registration police along with photocopies of all her documents. The mother and daughter met to discuss and drew lots for a name, which was Wang Xin.
When the police officer was inputting the information, he couldn't help laughing, [This name sounds like it will bring fortune and luck!!!]
[Really? Haha. I wonder how many people in the country have the same name...]
Wang Fengying really wanted to climb onto the table and squinted her eyes to look at the contents on the computer.
[Of course, there are quite a few. There are more than 110 of us with ID cards starting with .]
The new little fat boy Wang Xin was just one head taller than the table. He leaned his two fat paws on the edge of the table, shocked and regretting that he had cheated when drawing lots and did not choose the Wang Jian written by his mother. Maybe the chance of having the same name was not that high.
