Ji Zhouzi's words shocked Ji Xi's heart. He wanted to refute Ji Zhouzi, but he was speechless when he spoke.

If he were the leader, he would probably want a college student who graduated from college, not a high school student.

Ji Xi looked at the girl in front of him with a complicated expression, and after a while, he whispered: "Zhouzi, I didn't understand this principle before. You are three years younger than me."

Ji Zhouzi was extremely calm, "Well, I grew up all of a sudden today."

Ji Xi thought of his father who was still hospitalized, patted Ji Zhouzi on the shoulder and sighed: "I would rather you not grow up so quickly."

Ji Zhouzi took a step again, lowered his head, and said in a faint tone: "People always have to grow up. If I had grown up before, don't be willful, my grandfather would not have suffered a car accident."

When talking about his father's injury in a car accident, Ji Xi's initial hesitant expression became firm again, "I know you're right, but I still decided to go out to work after graduating from high school."

"Why?!" Ji Zhouzi turned around suddenly, stared at Ji Xi slightly, and looked at him in disbelief. Since he understood the truth, why are you still stubborn?

Ji Xi hesitated for a while, and finally revealed the real reason: "Your grandpa's leg is injured, and I'm afraid he can't work anymore in the future. I don't want to continue studying anymore. The tuition for college is very expensive. It's better to go out to work early and reduce the burden on the family early."

If it weren't for not being able to go to high school and get a diploma, Ji Xi wouldn't want to continue studying now and would want to go out to work.

Ji Zhouzi never expected that it was this reason. She was shocked and blamed herself. Only then did she realize that her willful behavior in her previous life not only harmed her grandfather, but also her uncle indirectly harmed her future.

When I thought about the younger uncle going out to work, I encouraged her to study hard. In her senior year of high school, I promised that if she could get into college, I would buy her a Little Lingtong for her...

At that time, Xiao Lingtong also cost four or five hundred yuan, which cost my uncle half a month's salary.

Tears began to surge in my eyes again, and Ji Zhouzi bit his lip tightly, so that he did not let himself cry.

"Uncle, you don't have to worry about money. I will find a way to make money." Ji Zhouzi looked sincere and begged unconsciously, "Uncle, please study hard. You are only in your second year of high school this year, and there is more than a year before the college entrance examination. When you get into college, you don't have to worry about the tuition fee."

Ji Xi laughed and rubbed Ji Zhouzi's head, "What are you saying? How can you make money by being a junior high school student? Don't think too much. You are the elders at home. You won't have your turn to worry about money."

Seeing that his uncle didn't take his words seriously, Ji Zhouzi didn't say anything more. Anyway, as she said, it was 1996 now, and it was not until 1998 that my uncle would take the college entrance examination. More than a year has been enough for her to make money.

Ji Xi took two steps, and when Ji Zhouzi didn't follow him, he turned around and urged, "Zhouzi is quick, he has to go back to have a meal. Don't let you Azu and grandma wait for us."

"Okay, let's go quickly." Ji Zhouzi quickly caught up with Ji Xi, and the two of them accelerated their pace towards their homes.

"Mum, mom, Zhouzi and I are back." Ji Xi shouted before he entered the door.

"I'm back, come and have a meal quickly. I just heated up the dishes again." A refreshing voice responded.

Ji Zhouzi walked into the house, looked at her grandmother who had just served the food from the iron pot, and called out: "Grandma, I'm back."

Looking at the old man sitting on the table again, Ji Zhouzi smiled from the bottom of his heart, rushed towards the old man, and hugged her gently, "Azu, I miss you so much."
