A strong young man will be strong, a wise young man will be wise, a rich young man will be rich, a independent young man will be independent, a free young man will be free, a progressive young man will be progressive, a young man will be better than Europe, a country will be better than Europe, a young man will be stronger than Earth, a country will be stronger than Earth—Liang Qichao's "Theory of the Young China"

...

The key to whether a country is prosperous and prosperous is the young generation. But under the same blue sky, how many such children are suffering from the suffering brought by poverty and backwardness?

"Do you live here alone?"

When he entered the door, Yang Yu saw only a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the dusty stove, but he couldn't help asking.

"Um……"

Wang Ergou nodded timidly. Yang Yu saw that his hand was tightly grasping the bulging pocket on his right, and he could basically confirm that the car keys and money were in his pocket.

"What about your family?"

Squatting down, Yang Yu looked at Wang Ergou with gentle eyes. Even though he had already confirmed that it was Wang Ergou who stole something, who would have the heart to hate such a child?

"When I was very young, my father went to the army and never came back. Later, I heard them say they died, but I don't believe it."

Yang Yu was stunned and his heart broke out. In this life, he also had an older brother. In the memory of the original owner before his body committed suicide, the soldier from the same village came back and said that his brother had gone to the battlefield and had no news. In the memory of the previous crown prince, this border war would not end until 1989.

Ergouzi's father also went to the army and had never come back in recent years, so Yang Yu speculated that his father might have also gone to the battlefield and probably had died...

But shouldn’t the country provide preferential treatment to the families of martyrs? Why did the second dog live such a life?

"What about your mother?"

When Yang Yu mentioned Wang Ergou's mother, Wang Ergou took a small step back, and his eyes were obviously angry: "She? I don't know! Three years ago, my father stopped sending money back, so her father and her brother took her home and never came back!"

Yang Yu suddenly realized that no wonder the owner of the food stall outside asked Yang Yu not to make things difficult for Ergouzi.

War means death, and countless families will be broken. Is the dog in front of me not enduring the trauma caused by the war?

The woman was sentimental. Looking at Ergouzi's situation, her eyes were red and she burst into tears.

"How did you live alone for so many years?"

Ling Fei walked forward, took off her coat and put it on Wang Ergou, feeling heartbroken.

"Sometimes, they would give me some food, but it wasn't enough. Later, they learned craftsmanship from Brother Wang Ermazi next door, and sometimes they could have a full meal..."

Ergouzi pointed to other houses outside the door. Yang Yu understood and nodded. Sure enough, distant relatives were not as good as close neighbors.

Everyone has a hard time these days, let alone a small vendor? It is already rare to be able to give Ergouzi some food.

After hearing what Ergouzi said, Yang Yu understood that Ergouzi's technique of stealing things was taught by a man named Wang Ermazi. Children are ignorant and can fill their stomachs.

"Then did you take my stuff just now?"

Looking up at Wang Ergouzi's eyes, Yang Yu's tone was slightly serious. No matter what, stealing was wrong. Ergouzi was a child, but Yang Yu was unwilling to let Ergouzi's mistakes be ignored because of his pity.

"I...I..."

Listening to Yang Yu's inquiry, Ergouzi's eyes dodged and did not dare to look directly into Yang Yu's eyes.

This time, Ergouzi ran home and counted carefully. There were three ten yuan and a handful of loose money, which added up to dozens of dollars. It was enough for him to eat for a long time, but before he could be happy, Yang Yu came to the door.

The dozens of dollars are undoubtedly a huge sum of money for Ergouzi, who cannot eat enough and sleep but cannot sleep. Their temptation is conceivable, but he still took out what he had just obtained from his pocket.

In Ergouzi's reluctance to leave, Yang Yu stood up and put the money and keys into his pocket.

"Yang Yu..."

Ling Fei stood behind Yang Yu, gently pulled the corner of Yang Yu's clothes, signaling Yang Yu to take away the keys and leave the money for Ergouzi.

He waved his hand behind, Yang Yu signaled Ling Fei to be calm and looked at Ergouzi again: "It can be changed if you are poor, but you must have backbone and ambition."

Yang Yu's words touched Ergouzi's heart. He obviously recognized his words, but then he looked bitter: "But I'm hungry..."

"You have to have backbone when you are hungry! You have to earn it with your own hands."

After touching Ergouzi's head, Yang Yuyu was serious about what kind of life values ​​would shape how a person would come out. Ergouzi is still young and formally establishes a correct outlook on life. If he does not do this, it would harm Ergouzi's life.

"Yang Yu, he is still a child..."

Seeing that Yang Yu was so serious to a child, Ling Fei couldn't help but whisper a reminder.

"Would you like to go with me? I will give you a place to live and a job that can eat enough. However, all this is not in vain. You need to exchange your labor for everything I have given you."

"I do!"

Hearing Yang Yu's inquiry, Ergouzi agreed without hesitation.

Not everyone thinks of Yang Yu like this. Ergouzi has been caught by the owners in recent years of theft career. Although he is just a child and even though his neighbors plead with him, he is still beaten. He is afraid of such a life. Now he is extremely excited to hear that Yang Yu can give him a job.

Looking at Yang Yu again, Ling Fei's eyes showed a glimmer. Whether it was allowing Ergouzi to steal or giving him money, it could only be regarded as a kind of sympathy and a kind of charity. It had no meaning and would not fundamentally change Ergouzi's current situation. However, if Yang Yu gave Ergouzi a job and let him support himself, it would be different. Ergouzi could completely change his original life.

Psychology is not an insult or a charity. For Ergouzi, giving him a job that can support him is the greatest help.

"Okay, let's go with me now!"

Yang Yu nodded and glanced around. All the objects were basically broken. Seeing that Ergouzi had nothing to take away, he simply took him back to Hengyu now.

"Wait a minute!"

Wipe your hands clean on your trouser legs, took off your coat and gave it to Ling Fei. Ergouzi turned around and ran into the inner room. After whispering for a while, he hugged an object wrapped in green cloth in his arms, and then followed Yang Yu out of the room.

"His name is Yang Yu, and you can just call him brother in the future."

Yang Yu walked in front, Ling Fei walked behind with Ergouzi, and whispered to Ergouzi.

"Sister, what's your name?"

"My name is Ling Fei."

"Ling Fei? This name sounds so nice. Are you the wife of Brother Yang Yu? It's so beautiful. When I grow up, I will marry a wife as beautiful as my sister..."
