35-year-old Jiang Li was unmarried and childless, running her own small company with an annual income of several million, living a wonderful life.
19-year-old Jiang Li was pretty but brainles...
Wang Zengping and Wang Xiliang immediately gathered around, asking curiously, "Why do you look a little unhappy? What did Teacher Shen want to talk to you about just now? Did Teacher Shen give you a hard time?"
"No, Teacher Shen treated me to a meal and I ate too much."
Jiang Yi quickly shook his head. Although Teacher Shen's question was difficult for him to answer, he still respected and liked Teacher Shen in his heart.
"Wow! Teacher Shen treated you to a meal? The food was good, right?"
Wang Xiliang looked at Jiang Yi with envy, and Wang Zengping's eyes were also shining.
"Before, it was Teacher Zheng who treated you well, and now it's Teacher Shen who treats you well. Jiang Yi, you are so lucky!"
"If your academic performance is half as good as Jiang Yi's, maybe Teacher Shen will be impressed by you."
Wang Xiliang started to sabotage, and Wang Zengping also criticized him without hesitation.
"Your grades aren't much better than mine, so stop making fun of me."
The two of them were playing and fighting, and soon the classroom was filled with laughter.
Jiang Yi was originally in a heavy mood, but now he completely relaxed after listening to their laughter.
"Teacher Shen is still very good to me. I should be content."
Jiang Yi is a person who is easily satisfied. He quickly figured out his position and naturally would not worry about these trivial matters anymore.
After school in the afternoon, Jiang Yi came to the office carrying Shen Changan’s suit jacket.
"Teacher Shen, this is your suit. My sister has already washed it."
"Leave it there."
Shen Changan originally didn’t want it, but he was afraid of hurting the child’s self-esteem.
Jiang Yi was about to leave when Shen Changan quickly picked up a bag and handed it over.
"Jiang Yi, take this."
"Teacher Shen, you have been very helpful to me in my studies and have also given me many things in private. I cannot accept your kindness anymore."
When Jiang Yi saw such a big bag, he quickly waved his hand to refuse.
Although my sister said that she could accept things from Teacher Shen, she didn’t say that she could accept so many things.
"Don't rush to refuse. Take a look at what's inside first."
Jiang Yi opened the bag and looked inside curiously, and found two cans of milk powder and a bottle, as well as a few pounds of meat and some vegetables.
Shen Changan took out another bag from the corner of the office, which contained 20 kilograms of rice.
"This rice was given to me by someone else. I don't cook anyway, so it would be a waste to keep it. You can take it all."
It was obvious that he had bought these things specially at the grain station, but he pretended that they were given to him by someone else and gave them away casually.
"Teacher Shen, how can I have the nerve to take so many things you gave me?"
If he really takes it back, his sister will definitely blame him, right?
"I don't like powdered milk, and I don't need a bottle. Just take it all. Consider it a favor to me."
Jiang Yi was struggling violently inside, and Shen Changan found it a little funny to see him like this.
This kid has backbone, but he can't match his routine.
"Your sister's cooking is quite to my liking. If you really feel bad about it, just ask your sister to cook more for you tomorrow morning and bring some over to satisfy my craving."
"So Teacher Shen sent so many dishes and rice because he wanted to eat the food my sister cooked?"
Jiang Yi reacted immediately and stared at Teacher Shen for a long time. The previous Teacher Shen was aloof and a little distant, but today, Teacher Shen, wearing blue khaki work clothes, really looked like someone who would do such a thing.
But my sister has already returned Teacher Shen’s suit, so why hasn’t he returned the work clothes my sister gave him?
Jiang Yi thought so in his heart, holding the things given by Teacher Shen in his hand, but he didn't dare to say these words.
"When did I buy it? I already told you it was a gift from someone else. I gave it to you because I don't have any use for it. If your sister is willing to cook my share of the meal, then she can. If she doesn't want to, I won't force her."
Jiang Yi, who was still a little hesitant, finally accepted the pile of things after being persuaded by Shen Changan.
Watching Jiang Yi walk away, Shen Changan's tense face relaxed. That guy was really difficult to deal with. Every time he gave him something, he had to use tricks.
But the old man is still the most experienced. As long as it is something he wants to give away, the boy will definitely not be able to refuse it.
Who said his biggest weakness is that he doesn't like to waste? As long as he says to throw something away, Jiang Yi will accept it even if he doesn't want it anymore based on the principle of not wasting.
Shen Changan has used this method several times, and it has always been effective.
After the supplies were delivered, the two children were able to drink milk powder even when they had no milk.
When he thought of those two cute little dumplings, Shen Changan's heart softened.
There are just some signs of progress, and further investigation is needed.
If those two children were really his...
Shen Changan's mood was very complicated. Jiang Li looked independent and strong, and had unique insights, so it was very interesting to talk to her.
Apart from her poor family conditions, Jiang Li's own situation is actually very good, and Shen Changan also admires such a girl.
But if the person that night was really her, Shen Changan felt a little complicated.
No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Jiang Li, who was young but mature and steady, was not someone who would do such a thing.
But if it wasn't her, could it be that woman?
Although he was good-looking and had a nice figure (as evidenced by the curves of the quilt), he had no feelings for the woman.
If he knew that woman had plotted against him, he would make her and her family pay the price!
Shen Changan felt very conflicted. On the one hand, he hoped that the person that night was Jiang Li, at least he would not feel so disgusted.
On the other hand, he hoped it wasn't her. Jiang Li left a good impression on him. How could she do such a thing for two children?
Jiang Yi returned home carrying a lot of bags. As soon as he entered the house, Zhang Guocai, who was sitting under the eaves weaving a basket, saw what he was carrying.
"Jiang Yi, where did these things come from?"
"Is this a gift from Teacher Shen?"
"The teacher Shen who visited my home last time?"
Zhang Guocai frowned, put down the work in his hands, stood up, took the bag from Jiang Yi's hand and looked at it again and again.
They were all rice, noodles, meat and vegetables, and they all looked quite good. They were valuable things. Was Mr. Shen really that rich? He just gave them away without hesitation?
If sending rice, flour, meat and vegetables can be understood as improving Jiang Yi's diet, then what about the milk powder and bottles?
Zhang Guocai took out two cans of milk powder and placed them in front of his eyes, looking at them again and again. The dates were quite fresh, and the milk powder was also the most sought-after Red Flag brand milk powder.
These two bags look like a lot of things, and the price is not cheap. What is Teacher Shen thinking?
"These things are very expensive. Many of them can't be bought even if you have money. Didn't your sister tell you not to ask for other people's things casually?"
"My sister did say before that I can't take other people's things, but later she said that I can take things given by Teacher Shen."
The things had been taken away by his uncle a long time ago. Jiang Yi put his hands together and looked at his uncle embarrassedly, even speaking in a much lower voice.
