Although Yan Zhen's words sounded a little hasty, in fact, it was his plan after careful consideration.
Yan Zhen was very clear that he was not a very suitable person for studying. Even if he went to work after graduating from junior high school, the best result would be nothing more than a junior high school diploma.
Although most people would say that a diploma was better than nothing, in this society where people who graduated from college could barely find a job, what could a junior high school diploma do?
Could he tell others that he was not illiterate?
Since he had to take this step sooner or later, why not take this step earlier?
Since the result would be the same if he continued to study until the third year of junior high school, he might as well start to give up studying now and go to work directly. At least he could make some money to prepare for his future career.
After Yan Zhen said this, Jiujiu was stunned. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said to Yan Zhen, "If you don't want to go to school, then don't. No matter what you do, I will support you."
Yan Zhen felt that Jiujiu was his goddess, and Jiujiu was the same. In Jiujiu's eyes, Yan Zhen was her Prince Charming. No matter what Yan Zhen did, she felt that he would be successful. Even if he was not successful now, it would be sooner or later.
Yan Zhen had been prepared for Jiujiu to oppose him dropping out of school, but he did not expect that Jiujiu would agree with him. Yan Zhen was stunned in an instant.
When he came to his senses, he was ecstatic.
He knew that his woman must be the best woman in the world. No matter what he did, she would always support him silently. No matter whether he wanted to continue to study or drop out to make money, she would support him unconditionally.
Because he was moved, half of Yan Zhen's eyes turned red. He held Jiujiu's soft little hand and solemnly said as if he was making an oath, "Lili, don't worry. I will be good to you."
In the future, he would work hard to make money so that Jiujiu could live a carefree life like the wives of rich families on TV.
Looking at Yan Zhen's red eyes, Jiujiu smiled and continued to discuss with Yan Zhen what they were going to eat the next night.
Hearing Jiujiu's words, Yan Zhen immediately remembered the food he bought for Jiujiu. He hurriedly took the food he just bought for Jiujiu.
She looked at the bag full of snacks. She looked at the colorful bags inside, especially those sweet and greasy desserts. Although she didn't like them, since Yan Zhen gave them to her, she would try her best to like them.
Jiujiu took the bag from Yan Zhen and whispered that she liked it very much. Then, she smiled and told Yan Zhen about the future.
Seeing Jiujiu talk about the future with a look of longing, Yan Zhen couldn't help but smile. He casually tore open a bag of chips, and from time to time, he would take out a chip and stuff it into Jiujiu's mouth.
The two talked for a while, and it was almost time, so Yan Zhen and Jiujiu went to sleep separately.
In the following days, Jiujiu and Yan Zhen basically maintained the same routine. Jiujiu went to make up lessons during the day, while Yan Zhen prepared to find a job because of his promise to support the family.
Yan Zhen was only 14 years old. Even some illegal restaurants weren't willing to hire him. After all, it wouldn't be good if he was found out.
Because of this, Yan Zhen directly found a gangster who had a good relationship with him and bought him a drink with money. Then, he used his connections to change the age on his ID card to 18 years old.
When he was done with the ID card, it was almost the Chinese New Year.
Because of the Chinese New Year, Jiujiu didn't let Yan Zhen continue to look for a job. She directly asked Yan Zhen to wait until after the Chinese New Year.
Yan Zhen also felt that Jiujiu was right, so he agreed.
It was very cold when the Chinese New Year was coming, and Yan Zhen was worried that Jiujiu had to take care of him every day when she went home, so he took care of the cooking work.
The first time she had eaten Yan Zhen's cooking, Jiujiu drank several bowls of porridge because of the saltiness.
Fortunately, Yan Zhen's cooking skills improved little by little as time passed.
Soon, it was Chinese New Year's Eve. Although a family member had just passed away, so they couldn't decorate the house with lanterns and decorations, they still needed to have a festive atmosphere.
Jiujiu told Yan Zhen that she would go to her uncle's house on that day. When she came back, they would watch the Chinese New Year's Gala together.
Yan Zhen had spent many Chinese New Year's Eve in the past, but at that time, his father was either a gambling addict, or his mother was always talkative. Therefore, Yan Zhen didn't look forward to the Chinese New Year at all.
However, if the person who would spend the Chinese New Year with him was Jiujiu, he would look forward to it.
Jiujiu didn't have money, so when Jiujiu went to her uncle's house, she only carried a few fruits.
Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang, who originally didn't like Jiujiu, didn't even lift their eyelids when they saw that Jiujiu only carried a few fruits. They just glanced at her and continued to talk to Zhang Mei, who was carrying bags of various sizes.
Although Zhang Li's uncle wasn't an evil person, he was definitely the kind of person who would sweep the snow in front of his own door.
To put it bluntly, he was cold-hearted.
Otherwise, why didn't he take the initiative to raise Zhang Li when her parents were dead?
Even if his family wasn't well-off and couldn't raise Zhang Li, half a year had passed, and he didn't even look at her. It was really cold-hearted.
Therefore, when Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang didn't like Jiujiu's behavior, Uncle Zhang only pretended not to see it and continued to talk to Zhang Mei's husband.
Jiujiu, who already knew that Family Zhang was cold-hearted, didn't have any expectations. After staying in the house for a few minutes, she used the excuse that she had something to do at home and left.
As soon as Jiujiu left, Grandma Zhang spat, "What the hell? She doesn't even know how to call me Grandma."
In response to Grandma Zhang's words, Zhang Mei just smiled and said that Jiujiu was still young. Then, she turned to Grandma Zhang and said, "Mom, let me ask you. Have you heard about Lili selling her house recently?"
Ever since she and Xiao Tian left Jiujiu's house in a sorry state, Zhang Mei hadn't been to Jiujiu's house.
This time, after seeing Jiujiu, Zhang Mei remembered that Jiujiu mentioned selling her house last time.
After hearing her daughter's question, Grandma Zhang was stunned. She frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head slightly and said, "I haven't heard about it. What's wrong? She wants to sell her house? "
"No, I'm just asking." Zhang Mei didn't want to tell Grandma Zhang that she wanted to sell the house in Jiujiu's hands, so she answered vaguely, "I just feel that Lili is the only one left in Third Brother's house now. I'm worried that Lili won't be able to live on and will have ideas about the house."
"She dares? She's just a good-for-nothing. How dare she touch the house? Your father and I asked for that house. We should be the ones selling it. "
Grandma Zhang said it so confidently and confidently.
