In the hustle and bustle of the city, there is a girl named Lin Wan, her heart is as gentle as water, she is always habitually thinking about the people around her, and this kindness is often praised as her unique charm. However, just as everything in the world has two sides, Lin Wan's soft-heartedness has also become a double-edged sword at some point.
Lin Wan's parents run a small restaurant, and although the business is not prosperous, it is enough to make ends meet. His younger brother Lin Hao is in college and is the only boy in the family, so he is naturally pampered. Lin Wan has known humility and dedication since she was a child, and she always tries her best to meet her family's requirements.
One day, Lin Wan received an acceptance letter from her favorite university. She was ecstatic and dreamed of being able to enter this university to further her education and lay a strong foundation for her future life. However, when she brought home this joy, her parents' reaction was unexpected.
"Wan'er, this college tuition is not cheap, you know the current situation at home, we really can't afford it." The father's voice was full of helplessness.
"But that's what I've always dreamed of." Lin Wan's eyes flashed with tears.
"Can dreams be eaten? Your brother is still in college, and he will buy a house and get married in the future, so the family needs more money. Mother's words pierced Lin Wan's heart like a needle.
Lin Wan knew that her parents' words were not unreasonable. However, she was unwilling to give up her dream. She tried to find other ways to raise money for her tuition. However, the reality is always cruel, and she runs into walls everywhere and finds nothing.
At this moment, a familiar voice sounded in Lin Wan's ears: "Wan'er, I heard that you were admitted to the university, congratulations." "This is Lin Wan's friend Xiaoli, she has a solid family and has grown up with Lin Wan since she was a child.
"Thank you Xiaoli, but ......" Before Lin Wan's words were finished, she was interrupted by Xiaoli: "I know you are in trouble now, but don't be discouraged." I have a relative who runs a company in the city, and they are hiring, and the pay is good. If you'd like, I can introduce you to the past. ”
Lin Wan's heart moved, she knew that this was a rare opportunity. However, it also meant that she had to give up her dream and go to work to earn money. She hesitated, not knowing what to choose.
At this moment, Lin Hao's phone called: "Sister, I heard that you were admitted to the university, it's really good!" However, I heard that the tuition fee is very expensive, and my parents are worried about it. ”
When Lin Wan heard her brother's words, she felt even more conflicted. She didn't want to see her parents worry about her tuition, and she didn't want to see her brother give up on his future because of her. She gritted her teeth and made a difficult decision.
The next day, Lin Wan told her parents that she had decided to give up the opportunity to go to college and go to the city to work to earn money. When her parents heard her words, they were first shocked, then moved. They knew that Lin Wan had made such a sacrifice for the sake of her family, and their hearts were full of guilt and gratitude.
Lin Wan found a job in the city, and although it was hard, she never complained. She used her hard work to earn a salary, bought a house for her younger brother, and solved the family's urgent needs. However, there is always a regret in her heart - the unfulfilled dream of college.
A few years later, Lin Wan's younger brother Lin Hao finally graduated from college, he found a good job, and married a virtuous wife. Their lives are getting better and better, but Lin Wan has always been paying silently.
Until one day, Lin Wan received a letter from the university of her choice. In recognition of her selfless dedication and perseverance, the letter said, the school decided to provide her with a free opportunity to attend school. Lin Wan looked at the letter in her hand, tears welling up in her eyes. She finally has a chance to make her dream come true!
However, just as she was about to embark on a new journey, an unexpected news came - she had physical problems due to long-term overwork. The doctor told her that she needed to rest well for a while and not overexert herself. This news made Lin Wan fall into a deep entanglement. She didn't know whether to continue chasing her dreams or give up the opportunity and go home to recuperate.
At this critical moment, Lin Hao stood up. He told his sister that he was willing to give up his job and go home to take care of his parents and sister so that she could go to school with peace of mind. His words moved Lin Wan and made her regain her courage and confidence.
In the end, Lin Wan chose to pursue her dream. With the blessings and expectations of her family, she embarked on a new journey. She knows that this road will not be easy, but she believes that as long as there is love and faith in her heart, she will be able to overcome all difficulties.
