Chapter 458 Penglai World: Storage Bottle 6
Chapter 458 Penglai World: Storage Bottle 6
This was something Shaya had never heard before.
What she kept hearing was that people in the downtown area kept giving birth because they were uneducated and spent all their earnings on food, so they didn't understand these principles at all.
So when she was young, she would rather starve than buy knowledge to fill her brain, just because she didn't want to become like them.
If what Xiaoxiao said is true, then isn’t the Lower City area the livestock raised in the main city?
Even the livestock in the main city live better than their fellow residents in the lower city.
This might make Shaya collapse.
Before Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she sighed and continued.
“Even if the main city area does not become like the lower city area, a part of the main city area will definitely be separated to become the lower city area. This will never change.
On the surface, the main urban area seems calm and everyone is just a little busy, but in fact there are many injustices and countless discriminations in the main urban area.
So, Xiaoya, can you understand why I would rather be a person from the downtown area? "
Shaya was silent for a while and said, "This is because you have already experienced life in the main city. If you were born in the lower city, you would not think this way. You would think about how to become a person in the main city or even the upper city."
Xiaoxiao did not deny this possibility, but what she said next taught Shaya another lesson.
"At least you still have something to aspire to, but what about the people in the main city? Every day they worry about whether they will be kicked out to the lower city, and at the same time they have to work hard to curry favor with the people in the upper city.
People in the main urban area have no pursuits. Compared to you, they are more like numb robots, repeating the same things every day, and almost everyone has the same goal.
People born in the main urban area are destined to do what they will do in their lives from birth.
Xiaoya, do you know why my family doesn't allow me to go to pharmacy school?"
Xiaoxiao asked the question with a gentle smile.
Shaya shook her head.
Xiaoxiao continued, “Because the Pharmacy College is full of children who have been abandoned by their families in the upper city, their families will take care of them and provide them with food and clothing, but that’s all.
These people from the upper city have no value in the eyes of people in the main city, and are even despised by the main city.
But they are free to do what they want, and their families are well-fed and well-clothed, so I never understand why these robot-like people in the main city have the right to look down on them. "
Shaya didn't know what to say.
She and Xiaoxiao have known each other for a long time, since before they entered the Interstellar Academy.
In her opinion, Xiaoxiao has always been a gentle and sensible person.
In her heart, she had already regarded Xiaoxiao as her sister.
Xiaoxiao saw Shaya's shock and she smiled gently.
"Xiaoya, you don't have to think so much, just continue to do what you want to do. I really hope that one day I can be as free as you."
Shaya nodded silently.
In fact, Shaya didn’t understand, Xiaoxiao looked very free.
【Dear travelers, please note that the time period will be switched soon. 】
As the prompt sounded, the scene in front of Lu Xichen changed.
It is still an interstellar academy, but this time it looks a little different and is sparsely populated.
"Sister Xiaoxiao, are you really going back to the family? You will graduate in a year. Your grades are so good, you can definitely play a better role than marriage."
Shaya was wearing a black battle robe and looked more like a female general than before.
The smile from the heart was no longer on Xiaoxiao's face. She smiled bitterly and reached out to gently pat Shaya's shoulder.
"There's nothing we can do. This is an opportunity my family has finally gotten. They won't give up."
"I will protect you! I'll see who dares to go against me!"
Shaya pulled Xiaoxiao's arm in a firm manner.
Xiaoxiao shook her head helplessly and reached out to pull away Shaya's hand that was holding her.
"Xiaoya, you are not a child anymore. You know very well that you can't fight against them."
"But!"
Shaya wanted to say something, but seeing Xiaoxiao shaking her head, she could only hold her words back.
Xiaoxiao looked up at the bright sky and murmured to herself, "I don't know when I can see such a beautiful sky again."
Xiaoxiao left the Interstellar Academy.
Although she was not the first, she was in the top ten.
She was an outstanding student at the Interstellar Academy, but none of the teachers who usually said they liked Xiaoxiao spoke up for her.
Shaya was reluctant to let Xiaoxiao do something she didn't like, and even more so didn't want her to get married, so she turned to the teachers in the academy for help.
Almost all the teachers here are from the upper city. As long as they are willing to help, there will definitely be a way.
With great hopes, Shaya went to find those teachers who liked Xiaoxiao, but the result she got shocked her even more and almost turned her world upside down.
-
Xiaoxiao's professional teacher looked at Shaya, who was exhausted, frowned slightly, put down the book in his hand, and questioned Shaya with dissatisfaction.
"Is this what Mr. Qian taught you? You don't know any manners at all."
Shaya had no time to care about the quarrel, she just wanted to save Xiaoxiao.
"Teacher, Xiaoxiao was taken away. Her family asked her to go to the upper city for marriage. Is there any way to save her?"
The teacher looked at Shaya with dissatisfaction.
"It is a rare opportunity to be able to form an alliance with Shangcheng District, but the Jiang family alone is not qualified. Jiang Xiaoxiao is not going there for an alliance at all. She is just a gift from the Jiang family to the ancestral family in Shangcheng District. She is a stepping stone for the Jiang family."
Shaya asked in confusion, "Teacher, what do you mean by this? What stepping stone?"
"I don't have time for you, just do what you need to do."
The teacher ordered Shaya to leave. She wanted to say something, but when she saw the teacher's cold eyes, she knew she would not get any useful information here.
After leaving the teacher's room, Shaya walked around the college in a daze.
Not long after I walked away, I accidentally bumped into someone.
"Hey, you from downtown, are you blind?"
Shaya was in no mood to pay attention to the troublemakers. She walked around them without even looking up and continued walking.
But the man was not prepared to let Shaya go.
She pulled Shaya in confusion, "Shaya? What's wrong with you? Why are you so distracted?"
Shaya looked up when she heard the voice and saw it was Yuan Yuan.
That's right. At this point in the college, there were not many people in Cannes who openly mentioned her downtown origin.
After spending time together, Shaya and Yuan Yuan have become close friends, and it is very appropriate to describe them as a pair of bickering enemies.
"Sister Xiaoxiao went back to marry into a family in Upper City." Shaya said this soullessly.
Yuan Yuan said in confusion, "Huh?" and then said, "Marriage? There is no such thing as marriage. People from the upper city cannot marry people from the main city. Where did you hear this rumor?"
Shaya was a little confused, "Sister Xiaoxiao said it herself."
"That's impossible. What else did she say?" Yuan Yuan continued to ask.
Shaya thought about it and told Yuan Yuan what had happened, and also told her what the teacher had said.
After knowing the whole story, Yuan Yuan was silent for a moment and said to Shaya very seriously, "Jiang Xiaoxiao is not a marriage alliance. She was given to Shangcheng District as a gift by the Jiang family. She will be made into a containment bottle."
