Without a second thought, Captain Huang retorted, "That's impossible. Everyone knows Shujing's character. He works diligently and never does anything underhanded."

“Those people don’t think about taking the right path, they think about taking shortcuts all day long, and they think everyone is like them. They even have designs on children. What right do such people have to talk about Shujing? If anyone dares to talk nonsense, I’ll kick them to death.”

Yu Rujia: "The captain is right. It's a pity that not everyone thinks that way. In order to avoid suspicion, Shujing really shouldn't step forward to set this test question."

Captain Huang grumbled, "Avoid suspicion, avoid suspicion? In my opinion, everyone is suspicious except Shujing. If he really wants to help someone, he can just let that person work in the factory. With Shujing's abilities, how could he not get a job?"

"Being a permanent employee in the factory is much more respectable than being a teacher in our brigade. Why go through all that trouble of leaking the exam questions to that person and making things up?"

What Captain Huang didn't say was that if Gao Shujing really wanted to push someone to be the teacher, as long as that person's character wasn't too bad, he would find a way to achieve Gao Shujing's wish.

Therefore, he doesn't need to leak exam questions to help others cheat and obtain a teaching position.

Although he hadn't said it explicitly, he believed Gao Shujing understood.

Gao Shujing didn't say this to him, which meant that he hadn't considered taking the spot.

Gao Shujing coughed and reminded him, "Captain, you can't say things like that carelessly. I never do things like using connections. If outsiders hear you say that, our family will never have a moment of peace."

He could certainly get one or two jobs, but there was no need to waste favors on outsiders.

Captain Huang took a deep breath, suppressing his anger: "I was so angry because of those people that I ended up saying this. Don't take it to heart. I definitely wouldn't say this outside."

Because of a teacher's position, the whole brigade has been in chaos these past few days, and he's been so angry he's lost his mind. Luckily, it's just the three of them here, and there are no outsiders.

Otherwise, Gao Shujing will have even more headaches in the future than he does now.

Gao Shujing steered the conversation back on track: "This time, we're hiring teachers to teach elementary school students. High school students are fine for setting the questions; there's no need to specifically hire a college student."

Captain Huang: "Principal Zhang is also in a difficult position, as many people are looking for him."

Principal Zhang recommended Gao Shujing to set the exam questions, but he was actually worried that if those with bad intentions failed the exam, they might spread rumors that he had given them the questions, which would have a great impact on him.

Captain Huang agreed to come and find Gao Shujing precisely because he understood Principal Zhang's concerns.

Gao Shujing surpasses those with ulterior motives in the team in terms of knowledge, character, ability, and status.

Little did he know that someone had already thought of this before him, and even started to curry favor with Duofu and his companions.

If even Gao Shujing doesn't dare to set questions, where can he find someone more convincing than Gao Shujing to set questions?

Yu Rujia suggested, "Isn't there a middle school in town? We could ask one of the teachers there to help us create a test paper."

After thinking for a moment, Captain Huang realized that this was the only option: "Finding teachers from the town's middle school to create the test papers is feasible. I'll have Principal Zhang arrange it."

Yu Rujia: "In order to prevent the people from the brigade from going to the town to find out about the test questions, we will not announce this matter first. On the day we get the test papers back, we will announce the test information directly to the school to eliminate any possibility of cheating."

Although being a teacher only requires a full work point and a fixed six-hour workday, it is still a huge temptation for people who work every day and still struggle to earn a full work point.

Perhaps someone will actually go to town to investigate after hearing this news.

Captain Huang: "Won't that leave those who want to become teachers unprepared?"

Gao Shujing agreed, saying, "An unprepared exam can better reveal their true abilities."

Captain Huang: "You're right. I'll go back and have those who want to be teachers sign up. We'll notify those who have signed up to take the exam on the day we get the test papers back. They won't be able to preview the questions then."

Shortly afterward, the team's loudspeaker blared.

Captain Huang: "Anyone interested in becoming a teacher, please go to the brigade office and register with Secretary Li. The educational requirement is junior high school or above. We will select one person from the list to be a teacher. To reiterate, anyone interested in becoming a teacher..."

As soon as the notice was issued, the doors to the brigade office were practically bursting at the seams.

According to statistics, more than 20 people signed up, with half from the educated youth institute and half from the brigade.

When Guan Daya saw the list, she started making a scene in the brigade office.

Guan Daya said confidently, "We built the primary school in the brigade, so we should definitely give priority to people from the brigade when it comes to choosing a teacher. My sweetheart is the only high school student among the applicants from the brigade, so she can only be the teacher."

She really disliked Qi Tianxin, but her eldest grandson was right; if Qi Tianxin became a teacher, she would have more income.

All that income would eventually end up in her hands, so Guan Daya is now trying every possible way to get rid of the teacher's position.

Zhou Likang said righteously and sternly, "Teachers are there to educate and nurture people. We all know how Qi Tianxin married into your Huang family back then."

"If someone like her were to be a teacher, who would dare entrust their child to her care? Wouldn't they be afraid of producing a bunch of Qi Tianxins?"

This guy is covered in black spots; I really don't know where he gets the nerve to come here and pretend to be righteous.

Ling Xiaoyue chimed in, "Zhou Zhiqing is right. For the sake of the children's future, we should be more careful in choosing teachers."

Guan Daya glanced at Wu Yuanyuan, who was timidly following Zhou Likang.

Guan Daya scoffed, "Be cautious my ass! You all know what's been going on between Zhou Zhiqing and Old Wu's daughter these past few days, don't you? She's so seduced that she's abandoned her home and is living with you even before marriage, and you still won't marry her?"

"Ling, you're the number one slacker when it comes to work. Don't you have any idea how many people you've argued with? Anyone could say what you just said, except for the two of you."

Zhou Likang had very high standards and would never look favorably upon Wu Yuanyuan, who was burly and lacked any culture. He only planned to take her in and let her go back home once her parents calmed down.

Then he'd be able to get things from her again. He never intended to marry Wu Yuanyuan.

When Guan Daya called him out in public, Zhou Likang's face twisted in anger. Why did Zhu Jiaojiao have to cause trouble at this crucial moment? If he didn't get rid of this stain, he could forget about getting the teacher's position.

Ling Xiaoyue is lazy, and unlike Yu Rujia, she doesn't have a special skill, so she can be lazy openly.

She was often criticized for slacking off at work, and Guan Daya felt a little guilty about it.
