Chapter 363 - 8 Impatient
Lin Xiaoguai couldn’t help but want to laugh upon hearing this, as a somewhat blurry image of that classmate flashed in her mind. She hesitated to ask, "The day after, didn’t he also bring a raw egg for me?"
"Right." Jiang Xiaomei’s laughter, unable to contain her amusement, came through the phone, "He was afraid of postponing yet another day and not daring to give you anything, so he brought a raw egg that wouldn’t spoil."
Lin Xiaoguai’s memory started to clear up. Ah, so it was Chang Chunji.
Speaking of which, Lin Xiaoguai did not have a shallow memory of Chang Chunji. If it had been her previous life now, she definitely would have remembered him.
As a child, Lin Xiaoguai actually harbored some resentment towards the wealthy; although she didn’t show it, she truly detested the homes of the supposedly well-off peasants in the village. This was normal considering she had faced discrimination all her life due to her family’s poor "class status," and her father continually impressed upon her the importance of education. At the time, she felt that those peasant families, despite being the least useful, not bothering to study hard and get ahead, just content to live off their tiny plots of land without taking any risks, cowardly settling in a small corner, yet it had somehow become something to flaunt?
Everyone has their rebellious phase, and Lin Xiaoguai was no exception; she just expressed it more quietly than others.
Seeing her nephews and nieces struggling daily, eating sweet potatoes until they wanted to vomit, drooling at the sight of a captured sparrow, skinny as rail-thin skeletons. Meanwhile, her older brothers, burdened by their inferior family status, did the most physically demanding and heaviest work in the production team, yet only earned the same work points as everyone else.
How could Lin Xiaoguai not feel resentment? How could she not feel heartache?
