Jiang Yang was very happy to have earned five yuan.
Now, every extra cent meant that he was one step closer to his goal. To Jiang Yang, it was something worth being happy about.
He hurried all the way to the edge of the town.
There was a brick factory not far ahead. Even though it was already evening, the brick factory was still operating.
Jiang Yang walked over and greeted the boss before he started working.
Obviously, the boss was already very familiar with Jiang Yang.
Not far away, Meng Meiqi and the other two, who had been quietly following them, were stunned when they saw this scene.
The three of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy and oppressive.
Dumby piled up more than a dozen bricks at once and moved them with difficulty with its thin body. The three of them were already in a daze.
Tears welled up in their eyes, but the three of them held back their tears.
Peng Peng turned his head and pretended to wipe away the tears at the corner of his eyes.
He forced a smile and said,""I want to take back what I said just now. I think I was too naive.”
"I know Adai must be short of money. Last time, I heard him mumble 1,000 yuan." Zhang Zifeng choked slightly.”
After a pause, she adjusted her emotions and continued,"It's just that I said I would give him money, but he insisted on not taking it. There's nothing I can do.”
Meng Meiqi sighed." 1,000 yuan is nothing to us, but to Dumby, it's extremely difficult." If he continued to earn like this, he didn't know when he would be able to gather a thousand yuan.”
Buzz…buzz…buzz…
At this time, Zhang Zifeng's phone vibrated.
She picked up her phone and saw that it was Teacher He.
When he picked up the phone, Mr. He's voice came through."Sister, where are you now? I'll go look for you now.”
"Teacher He, I'll send you the location now." Zhang Zifeng replied softly.”
He Jiong was meticulous and could tell that Zhang Zifeng's tone was a little off. He asked considerately,"Sister, what's wrong? Why do you sound so down? Did Peng Peng bully you?”
Zhang Zifeng shook his head and replied,"Teacher He, I'm fine. I'm really fine.”
"It's good that you're fine. Hurry up and send me your location. I'll pick you up.”Mr. He urged her with a smile before hanging up.
Zhang Zifeng took his phone and sent He Jiong the location.
Then, the three of them fell silent. No one spoke.
The three of them just watched Adai busy himself from afar. They wanted to go forward and help, but it was as if there was an invisible thread that tied the three of them.
Ten minutes later, He Jiong finally found the three of them.
He Jiong and Wei Daxun were very curious when they saw the three of them standing by the roadside in a daze.
He Jiong immediately parked the car on the grass by the roadside and got out of the car with Wei Daxun.
"Hey, what are you three standing here for?”Wei Daxun asked with a smile before he reached the three of them.
As he spoke, he jumped to Peng Peng's side and placed his hands on his shoulders, wanting to liven up the atmosphere.
Peng Peng turned around and forced a smile.”
When Teacher He and Wei Daxun heard this, they were both curious.
"Where does Dumby work?" asked Wei Daxun.”
Peng Peng pointed in the direction of the brick factory and said,""Look, it's right there!"
Mr. He and Wei Daxun looked in the direction of his finger and saw a thin and weak figure. His hands were struggling to move a brick that was nearly one meter tall.
"Did Dumby come to town to earn money by moving bricks?”Mr. He was surprised, and the smile on his face froze.
The smile on Wei Daxun's face gradually disappeared. He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice,""It's illegal to recruit child labor in the brick factory, right?”
"Few people care about these small towns," said Teacher He with a solemn expression.”
After a pause, he continued," Looks like Adai is really short of money. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here to carry bricks after school."”
Meng Meiqi looked at Mr. He and quietly told him about Dumby picking up the drink bottle.
Mr. He was dumbfounded and felt very uncomfortable.
He had always been emotional, but his eyes instantly turned red and his voice became choked.
"Sigh, compared to the children in the city, it's like heaven and earth. Even an adult would collapse if they lived like this!”
Looking at the busy Adai, he was filled with emotions.
At the side, Wei Daxun couldn't stand it anymore. He said bluntly,"No, I have to talk to the boss. It's wrong for them to recruit child labor like this.”
As he spoke, he was about to rush out.
Peng Peng pulled him back and frowned."You'd better not go. Now that you've said that, where will Adai earn money in the future?”
"Earn money?" Wei Daxun said unhappily. How could a student like him earn money? He should study hard and get into a good high school and university. Only then could he change his fate. Otherwise, he could only stay in the countryside and be poor for the rest of his life.”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel excited.
When Teacher He saw this scene, he frowned and said,"The two of you don't need to argue. Let me think carefully. We can't be too rash.”
