When he was fifteen years old in his previous life, Zhao Shuanzhu listened to the fallacies of the gangster Qiangzi from his hometown and believed that studying was useless. He tore up his textbooks in public and contradicted his father Zhao Jianjun, who had worked hard for half his life. He decided to drop out of school and go south to pursue his career. The young man longed for freedom with a high salary, but in the end he was trapped in the construction site and the assembly line, doing the most tiring work and suffering the most unfair deductions. On New Year's Eve in the cold winter, a sinister foreman took away the whole year's salary, and he was left alone on the streets of a foreign land crying in pain. In middle age, people are trapped in small towns, relying on scattered coolies to support their families, and worrying about daily necessities of firewood, rice, oil and salt. Former classmate Li Kai devoted himself to studying, settled in the city after his studies, and had a stable job; Qiangzi, who tempted him to drop out of school, squandered his life, lived in debt, and lived a life of three kinds, which could be judged at a glance. After half a lifetime full of regrets, I was unexpectedly reborn and returned to the late autumn of 2013. This time, he knelt in front of his father and confessed his mistakes, cut off the circle of useless gangsters, withstood the ridicule of the whole village and the cold eyes of the whole class, and studied hard day and night from scratch. If your foundation is bad, you will make up the basics from scratch. If you don't have enough time, you will give up all fun and study hard with a mature mind that has experienced hardships. In the past, everyone was waiting to see his three-minute popularity revealed, but he slapped everyone in the face with his steadily improving results time and time again. Using pen and ink as a ladder, I can escape from the poverty-stricken countryside, make up for all the regrets I owed my father in my previous life, seize the missed golden age of reading, and walk out of the poor family's beautiful journey home.
