Er Ya is the second child in the family, a baby girl, so the family named her Er Ya. She has an elder sister above and a younger brother below. There is a saying circulating in the village platoon: "The boss is painful, and the young and the old are painful." In other words, because the oldest child in the family is the first child of parents, parents will naturally love him, and the youngest child is the most distressed and doting child of parents. Children in the middle are often easily ignored by their parents. Er Ya is in this embarrassing situation. She knows that she is not as good as her sister and brother in her parents' hearts, so she will be very clever and sensible from an early age.

Sister is the first child in the family. Before Er Ya and her younger brother were born, she was a little princess in the hands of her parents, proud and willful. When Er Ya began to remember, her sister was already wearing new clothes and carrying a new schoolbag and went to school happily. Er ya's friends of the same age also cried out to go to kindergarten. Although Er Ya envies her little friend that she can play games with the children and listen to the teacher's stories in kindergarten, her mother says that her father is a teacher and she goes out early and comes back late every day. She has to take care of more than 65,438+00 mu of land and feed pigs and cows. Sister can't delay her study. Anyway, she didn't learn anything in kindergarten, so she let Er Ya stay at home to see her brother.

Every day after breakfast, my father takes my sister to school and my mother goes to work in the fields. Er Ya leads her 2-year-old brother to play at home or under the big buttonwood at the entrance of the village primary school. After all, his brother is still young, so he is very tired when he walks. He opened his little hand and let her hug him. Er Ya is less than 6 years old, and her younger brother is over 20 Jin. He can't hold his brother for a few minutes, so he has to carry him on his back and walk along the village path, looking here and having fun there. Sometimes because my brother accidentally touched it or knocked it, he burst into tears and couldn't coax it. At this time, Er Ya will take out 1 20 cents from her mother and carry her brother to the village supply and marketing cooperative to buy colorful fruit candy for her brother to eat. This method was very effective. Her younger brother gradually stopped crying, opened his mouth and took Er Ya's peeled candy, laughing and began to play. Er Ya doesn't want to take a bite, because such pocket money is not common, and she wants to coax her brother with the only candy.

In a blink of an eye, Er Ya reached the age of primary school. Mother and father discussed that kindergarten can not be attended, but primary school must be attended. Er Ya wears her sister's little clothes and carries her old schoolbag to school. However, when her parents are really busy, she still has to take time off to take care of her brother at home, but even so, she feels good. She cherishes her school time and studies very hard. Although I often ask for leave, my grades have always been among the best in my class.

One year, the village was particularly dry, and it didn't rain for a long time, so the villagers' drinking water became a problem. The only ancient well is at the easternmost end of the village. Every morning, the villagers queue up to fetch water there, and so does their father. There is a long ramp from the old well to Erya's home, which just passes by the entrance of Erya's village primary school. When Er Ya was reading a book in the morning, she accidentally glanced out and happened to see her father plodding along with his back hunched. Er Ya rushed out of the classroom without hesitation and quietly helped her father push the cart with all her strength behind her. Father pulled the car and suddenly felt a lot easier. My father smiled with relief when I saw that it was the second ya in the future. That kind smile makes Er Ya feel warm. She didn't go back to school to continue her study until she walked up the slope and on the flat road and saw her father stand up straight. From then on, every morning when studying, Er Ya would look out of the window from time to time. When her father appeared in sight with his back hunched, he would hurry out and try his best to help his father push the cart.

From time to time, cuckoo calls from the sky came from the Woods, and frogs in the pond cried happily, reminding people that it was time to harvest wheat. The golden waves of wheat are rolling higher and higher, and the fields are full of busy people. On that day in June, the doll's face is always changing. While the weather is fine, grabbing the harvest is the first priority, and I can't even attend to going home for dinner. When Er Ya came home from school and found her parents away, she knew that she must still be busy in the field, so she quickly cooked some simple meals and sent them to the field with a big pot of water. My parents are thirsty, hungry and tired. When they saw Er Ya who came to the farm with food and water, they showed a gratified smile.

One day, Er Ya was sitting in the classroom when it suddenly got dark and there seemed to be a faint thunder in the distance. Er ya feels bad. My parents are drying the newly harvested wheat on the threshing floor. In case it rains, we should bag the wheat and put it in the warehouse before it rains. Where are thousands of kilograms of wheat? My parents definitely need help. Looking at the cloudy sky and listening to the increasingly clear thunder, Er Ya hurriedly asked the teacher for leave and hurried to her threshing ground. Sure enough, parents are scrambling to bag the wheat. She hurried to help, because she didn't have much strength, so she could only hold the bag. Mother poured the wheat into the bag, and father carried the bagged wheat into the car and hurriedly pulled the car into the house slowly. The raindrops as big as beans fell like broken beads, and her parents breathed a sigh of relief and praised Er Ya for being sensible and flattered.

Er Ya studies very hard. When she graduated from primary school, she was admitted to the key junior high school in the town. Three years later, she was admitted to a normal school as a freshman. She originally wanted to go to college in high school like her classmates, but at that time, technical secondary school was the most economical and practical. Being admitted to a technical secondary school is a cadre status, so she changed her household registration and took the imperial salary. After graduation, you can earn money to support your family, which is perfect for families who are not rich and whose younger brother is at school. However, middle school is more difficult to take exams than high school, and it is also difficult for many people who have studied for many years to take exams. Er ya is very competitive. Not only did she pass the exam, but she was also a unified recruit. The tuition fee for three years is less than 2,000 yuan, which saves a lot of money than Wei Peisheng who often has to pay 7,000 yuan or 8,000 yuan, and the school will give living expenses every month. That year, Er Ya was still under 14 years old.

It was in the early 1990s that Er Ya went to study abroad, and the school gave her a monthly subsidy from 35 yuan. Unless she scrimps, the money will not be enough to support her for a month. Er Ya thought of her father's meager income, her mother's hard work, and her younger brother who was studying, so she saved money for food from the only 35 yuan money, and bought some rare snacks for her younger brother at the store at the school gate at the end of the month. Every time I go home, my brother dances and jumps high when he sees the delicious food his sister bought. Looking at his younger brother eating happily, Er Ya felt as if he had eaten by himself, happy and satisfied.

Er Ya is still studying hard in middle school. She always wins the first place in her class in exams, because the first place can get a first-class scholarship. Although the first-class scholarship is only for 30 yuan, it is very precious to her, so she always spares no effort to win it.

/kloc-When she was 0/8 years old, Er Ya was assigned to be a teacher in a middle school in the town after graduation. Although she only has a few hundred yuan a month, she has a steady income. At that time, her father's status as a private teacher had turned positive, and her income was much higher than before. Although there are some human relations at home and my brother's tuition expenses are good, it is still much better than before. When Er Ya first joined the work, her former classmates had just been admitted to the university, and Er Ya was not greatly affected. By the fifth year of work, all the students had graduated. I heard that some students went to the provincial capital, some went to Qingdao, and some even went to Beijing and Shanghai. Er Ya thought that she might stay in this town all her life, and she was very unhappy. Her indomitable spirit is like a mushroom after the rain. She decided to take the postgraduate exam, which was the only way for her to change her destiny. But at that time, my brother had just been admitted to the university, and the annual tuition was not a small expense. If you go to school by yourself, you will not only lose your income, but also have a lot of expenses. But she didn't hesitate. She knows very well that she is 22 years old, and this is her last chance. She put most of the money she had saved in recent years into her brother's account, left enough tuition for her brother, and left a small part to buy study materials for herself. She is very disciplined. She gets up at 5:30 every day, goes to bed at 1 1: 00, and studies at other times, even when waiting for the bus. After many troubles, she finally entered the publicly-funded graduate school of the university she had longed for for for a long time.

At the age of 23, Er Ya stood at a new starting point. ...

Neighbors cooed: "Her parents are really blessed to have Er Ya, an understanding and successful child!" "
