Love You for the Rest of My Life novel Chapter 269

Chapter 269: Chapter 269: No Meat to Eat

This feeling made these children from Capital City want to shed tears - this was simply too freaking poor!

Seeing this, the village head Gu Qibao really wanted to sing out loud, "How many winds and rains, how many springs and autumns..."

"Since you’re all here, follow me." The village head looked like a simple and honest man who wasn’t much of a talker.

Although the students were a bit scared, they obediently followed the old village head.

Each household received eight students - five boys and three girls. This distribution was due to the belief that boys needed to be stronger.

This result caused a sense of responsibility to explode among the boys, making them feel instantly that as men they should take care of the girls and shoulder important tasks.

Bo Chenghe, Gu Qibao, and Nangong Ran were grouped together, along with four other boys and a girl.

The girl was none other than Lin Wan.

Gu Qibao felt like it was somewhat of a narrow escape, but this was not the time to be concerned about such things.

The current problem was at hand.

The family they were assigned to, to put it bluntly, was hopeless.

It was quite pitiful.

The male head of the household had had an accident at work years ago resulting in paralysis of his lower body; he lost his ability to work.

Fortunately, the wife remained loyal to him.

But their living conditions were extremely poor.

With two elderly people who could hardly work and two dependent children in the household, the labor force was solely reliant on the wife.

Despite being only in her thirties, she looked as old as someone in her forties or fifties. Gu Qibao couldn’t help shedding sad tears at this sight.

Unfortunately, they had no money on them and the only thing they could do now was to help this family with farm work.

However, they, who had never suffered before, were willing to help but simply had no strength left.
