Lin Yu awakens with memories of her past life and discovers she is a cannon fodder supporting character in a modern-era novel. The female lead is the real heiress, and Lin Yu is merely a fake heire...
Many people think that having a primary school education is already very good, and don't really value junior high school.
But Lin Yu guessed that Huang Chunlin would need this opportunity.
Cai Shuzhen understood her daughter; she knew Chunlin would be very happy.
She stood up and bowed to Lin Yu: "Thank you, thank you so much, factory director. Our whole family will remember your kindness."
If it weren't for the help of Director Lin and the food factory, his family wouldn't be where they are today.
Now that Director Lin has even helped solve Huang Chunlin's problem, Cai Shuzhen is so grateful that she wants to kowtow to her.
Fortunately, Lin Yu was strong and managed to stop her from kneeling.
“You don’t need to do that. As long as Chunlin and the children study hard, it would be even better if they could come back to work at the food factory in the future.”
She doesn't force them, but she still hopes that these children can come back and help their rural enterprise after they finish their studies.
But if they could have a wider world, Lin Yu would also wish them well.
Cai Shuzhen, however, felt this was only natural: "They went to school with subsidies from the factory, and they will definitely come back to contribute to the food factory in the future."
Her thoughts were simple: as long as the food factory needed them, the children had to come back to repay their kindness.
Little did they know that society would change so rapidly in the future, and people's hearts would be fickle. People would become only interested in their own interests, and those who remembered to repay kindness would be extremely rare.
But now everyone is very simple and honest, and they can't think of that possibility, so Lin Yu didn't say anything more.
After seeing the Buddha off to the Western Paradise, Lin Yu asked again:
"Aunt Cai, do you know that our factory has a literacy class?"
Cai Shuzhen said shyly, "I know, I was planning to go to class with an older sister from our brigade after get off work."
Ever since she couldn't even write her own name when filling out the form last time, she felt ashamed of being illiterate.
Later, when I started working, I discovered that the older women in the workshop could all read.
Some can even read newspapers on their own.
I asked and found out that the factory had literacy classes, which new employees could attend.
It is said that as long as you study diligently for a period of time, you can generally write your own name.
Tsai Shu-chen was very interested and made an appointment with an old friend to go and see it after get off work.
Lin Yu nodded in approval: "It's good that you love learning."
Cai Shuzhen felt even more embarrassed. She wasn't studious at all; she didn't even know how to read.
Lin Yu added, "Zhang Zhiqing, the person in charge of the literacy class, is a high school student and knows a lot."
If Chunlin encounters any difficulties while studying on his own, he can come here to listen to the lessons and ask him for help.
Cai Shuzhen understood; this meant that Zhang Zhiqing could become Chunlin's teacher!
She stood up, at a loss for words: "This, this is too much trouble for you, Zhang Zhiqing. Won't it be too much of a burden for you?"
Facing Lin Yu, Cai Shuzhen relaxed because of her warm attitude and the fact that they were both locals.
But those educated youths were all from the city, and she dared not get close to them, always feeling that they would look down on her.
Lin Yu comforted her, saying, "No, Zhang Zhiqing is very kind. As long as Chunlin dares to come, he will help."
If Huang Chunlin is timid, then Lin Yu will be helpless.
She merely provides a path; whether the other party chooses to take it or not is beyond her control.
Cai Shuzhen thought to herself, Chunlin is usually quite introverted, he might not dare to come.
I told her I would go home and tell her, and let her decide for herself.
After Cai Shuzhen left, Lin Yu went to Zhang Bing to tell him about it.
Zhang Bing: ? ? ? ?
"You mean you want me to teach middle school students?"
He roared, "I'm not a teacher!"
In recent years, it's been bad enough that he's been teaching these older women to read, but now even junior high school students want him.
So, will I be teaching high school students in the future?
Was Zhang Bing here to go to the countryside or to open a school?
Lin Yu waited for him to finish roaring before patting him on the shoulder and appealing to his emotions and reason.
It's useless.
Ultimately, it was resolved by force.
He smashed a broken table right in front of him: "Oh dear, it happened by accident, Zhang Zhiqing, how come I'm so strong?"
Zhang Bing trembled: "You, you don't think you can make me agree by using violence."
Lin Yu smiled and said, "So, are you going to take the job or not?"
"Yes, I will."
He's just teaching middle school students, right? What can't he teach a high school student?
He can handle even those unreasonable old ladies, let alone a junior high school kid.
Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction: "Then work hard, and the factory will give you a raise of two yuan."
Although the money wasn't much, it wasn't enough to buy even a pound of meat. Zhang Bing didn't dare say he didn't like it; having some was better than having none.
Even if you don't give him more money, he wouldn't dare not work.
Li Lanhua watched the whole thing without saying a word.
After Lin Yu left, she brought Chenchen up and said, "Yes, I have high hopes for you, Teacher Zhang."
Chenchen idolizes Lin Yu so much that, looking at the pile of smashed tables, she said, "Auntie knows martial arts, Mom, I want to learn too."
Li Lanhua smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Chenchen will learn from this, and no one will dare to mess with you in the future."
Oh my, Zhang Bing's expression when he was threatened was hilarious.
Li Lanhua showed him no sympathy whatsoever.
Why refuse to let him be a teacher? He's really ungrateful.
If she were educated, she would definitely be happy to teach the children.
Zhang Bing was unaware that his wife was thinking he was stingy. Seeing his daughter eager to try new things and gradually developing in the same direction as Lin Yu, he wanted her to change and become a more refined lady.
But then I thought, if my daughter could be like Lin Yu, no one would dare to bully her in the future.
What's the point of being a lady?
If Li Lanhua heard this, she would definitely say: Men, what hypocrisy!
......
Huang Chunlin, a timid and introverted boy, cried for a long time at home after learning that he had the opportunity to get a junior high school graduation certificate.
When Cai Shuzhen talked about Zhang, the educated youth in the factory, she couldn't believe it either.
She never imagined that she could ask the educated youth for advice.
I heard that this Zhang, a former educated youth, has a high school education and comes from a big city.
It can also help the elderly in the factory learn to read and write.
Huang Chunlin was not uninterested in him.
But the thought of having to take the initiative to go to the food factory and ask him for advice made her want to back down.
Huang Xianmin knew that his daughter had this kind of personality, and that she had always been very self-conscious because of her family's poor financial situation.
But he knew even more that this was a rare opportunity.
If I give up this time, I might never find such a good teacher again.
He said to Huang Chunlin, "Since Director Lin suggested that you consult Zhang, the educated youth, it means that he must be a very capable person."
"Such a good teacher, how could he possibly come to the countryside and give you the opportunity to meet him if it weren't for a time like this?"
Although he couldn't articulate his meaning perfectly, he made it clear.
He urged his daughter to seize this opportunity.
Huang Chunlin understood her father's meaning. She lay in bed thinking about it all night, and the next day she said to her parents:
"Mom, I'm going to the factory to see you today. We'll go to class together."
Tsai Shu-chen and her husband exchanged a glance, their faces full of smiles.
"Okay, okay, Mom will wait for you."
