Chapter 715: Empathy (2)

The internet society was quite amazing. Even if they couldn’t find a specific village, they could at least search for a county or a nearby village. That was enough.

They were truly poor and backward.

The biggest problem with education there was not that they could not afford to study. After all, they had already gone through nine years of compulsory education. In those poor places, the state’s subsidies were also higher.

There were two main problems.

One was the school’s hardware facilities, many of which were dilapidated.

Although the campus renovation had been going on for a long time, the poor mountainous areas had not been renovated because of the lack of funds.

Letting a child study in such a place was a huge safety hazard.

This time, the Tianyuan Charity Foundation’s first show was mainly to solve the problem of campus construction.

If he really wanted to realize it, he didn’t know how many years he would have to wait.

With the Tianyuan Charity Foundation’s injection of funds, the plan could be implemented.

The other problem, which was also the most serious problem, was the problem of teachers.

In some villages, there was only one teacher in each elementary school, teaching students of different grades.

Some villages even abolished schools because there were no teachers. The children traveled far away to study.

The place was too poor, and the traffic environment was not good. Some of the teachers who came to support the school left after staying for a few days. They would rather not give up the benefits promised to them.

It wasn’t even a matter of money.

For most young people, that was not a place for people to stay.

Because Mo Xiaodie wanted to do such a charity event, she had looked up a lot of information about education here on the Internet and watched a lot of videos. She knew that it was indeed difficult to teach there.

However, the Tianyuan Charity Foundation couldn’t solve this problem.

The country had promised many benefits to the teachers who went to these places to teach. They were not required to teach there for a long time. Half a year was enough, but very few people could stay there.

In the past two years, the situation had improved a little. Most of the teachers who came to teach chose to run away after a few days.

Some of them would rather give up their profession as teachers than stay here.

Not to mention the people in the city, even the children from the ordinary villages could not stand the hardship.

In terms of material resources, there was nothing they could get their hands on. Transportation was inconvenient, and it was difficult to buy anything. They didn’t even have a house that didn’t leak. How could they stay?

Mo Xiaodie watched many videos and felt that the children there were quite pitiful. She also had the urge to go over and teach.

She wasn’t studying in a teacher’s school, and her grades weren’t that good, but she had no problem teaching a primary school.

She felt that it was a great thing to be able to help those poor children.

However, after understanding the living conditions there, she gave up on that idea.

It’s not that she’s not willing to suffer, it’s that her body isn’t enough to support her, it’s that kind of environment, it’s that healthy life.

She was sick to begin with. If she taught there for half a year, she might have a relapse.

She talked to Ye Mo about what she knew about the situation there. As she talked, her eyes became wet.

Not only sympathy, but also empathy.

She did not live in that kind of environment, but she had suffered a lot. She knew how bitter poverty was and how unfortunate it was.

She had encountered many misfortunes.

However, for those who were born in such an environment, it was unfortunate. Some people had never left the mountains in their entire lives. They lived in the 21st century and had never seen the prosperity of the modern world.

Even in the 21st century, there were still many corners that the light of modern civilization had not illuminated.

Unfortunate people could understand unfortunate people more easily.

As she spoke, her voice became a little choked.

She was not putting on a show. This was her true thoughts.

Ye Mo was just listening to it as a boring topic on the road, but as he listened, he heard the emotion in Mo Xiaodie’s voice.

Seeing this girl cry because of someone she had never met before, he was suddenly moved.

He hadn’t seen any related videos or read any related articles. From Mo Xiaodie’s description, he only felt that the people there were suffering, but he didn’t feel it too deeply. He didn’t feel that he was in the same place.

He did not know those people. He had never lived in such an environment. He had never encountered any misfortune since he was young. He did not have the ability to empathize.

From Mo Xiaodie’s voice, he could feel not how pitiful the child was, but how kind the girl in front of him was.

"She’s a qualified spokesperson for the charity fund. She’s really too kind."Ye Mo thought.

He said to her," Everything will get better. This time, we’re not just putting on a show. The Golden Foundation is already prepared to invest tens of millions to change the teaching environment there. With a good school, there will be a good living environment. There should be more teachers willing to go over to teach.""

" Maybe," Mo Xiaodie said." But, I understand that it’s not just those places. There are also many mountainous areas where it’s difficult for children to go to school and the living environment is also very difficult."

The Tianyuan Charity Foundation could improve the teaching environment in a few towns, but it was impossible to improve the teaching environment in all poor mountainous areas.

It didn’t have that kind of ability. Even if it did, it couldn’t invest that much.

Regarding this, Ye Mo could only say,"We have to believe in the country and will solve these problems step by step.""

There was nothing wrong with this statement.

Charity was only a supporting force.

If they really wanted to solve the problem, they still had to rely on the power of the country.

Even the Tianyuan Charity Foundation’s student aid campaign this time required strong local support.

Otherwise, other than putting on a show, there was nothing else he could do.

After more than two hours of flight, the two of them were talking about the student aid. The photography assistant sitting on the other side of the aisle leaned his head against the back of the chair and pretended to be asleep to ease the embarrassment of being a third wheel.

Listening to their conversation, she was a little puzzled.

"I heard that the two of them are in an ambiguous relationship and always flirt with each other. They might be a couple. But now, it didn’t seem like it at all. There wasn’t a single word of love between them."

"Looks like the rumors are wrong!"

Then he thought, Is it because I’m next to them that they don’t want to expose this relationship?"

When the plane arrived at the airport, it was past ten in the morning.

The three of them left the airport. There were already people from the charity foundation waiting outside in a business car.

The car belonged to an agricultural enterprise invested by the Tianyuan Group in this province. That enterprise had also given a lot of support to this event.

The three of them got in the car and Mo Xiaodie sat in the same row as Ye Mo.

This time, the two of them didn’t chat. They listened to the driver tell them about the upcoming schedule.

What kind of people he would meet, what kind of media would come to interview him, and what kind of things he would do.

This was more detailed than the itinerary that was sent to them.

Because of many things, the team sent by the charity foundation had just been confirmed.

Mo Xiaodie listened attentively.

As she listened, she heard Ye Mo’s light snoring.

She turned her head and saw that Ye Mo had already fallen asleep.

Suddenly, he remembered something.

"I slept quite early yesterday, so I didn’t feel sleepy. However, he had live-streamed the goods yesterday until midnight. He definitely did not sleep for long, so he should be very sleepy."

Thinking of this, he felt very guilty.

"He had to get up early in the morning to catch a plane. When he got on the plane, he should have had a good sleep, but I kept pestering him and delayed his rest."

"I’m really too selfish."

At the thought of this, he whispered to the driver in front of him,"

"Hello, can we talk about some things later? Mr. Ye is very sleepy. Let him rest well first."
