Chapter 166 I Can Help You

After the dean and his companions ordered their meals, Lao Liu did not collect the money immediately.

After the meal was served, he asked the chef to fry a few side dishes and send them over.

“We didn’t seem to order these dishes.”

The headmaster was a little wary. The food in this restaurant was not cheap to begin with, and now they were sending so many dishes over for no reason. How much would this meal cost?

His monthly salary is only a few dozen yuan. If he spent half a month's salary on a meal, he would definitely be heartbroken.

"We're opening a new restaurant, and we're giving out random side dishes. Your table happened to be chosen, and our boss said they're free."

Lao Liu smiled brightly, and he had to do what Sister Jin asked him to do.

Even if they lose money on this meal, they have to do it.

"Who is your boss?"

When we heard it was free, we let down our guard, picked up some dishes and ate happily.

The rice bowl tastes good, and the accompanying side dishes are even better.

"Our boss is here."

Lao Liu hurriedly introduced them, and Ye Jin smiled and nodded to everyone.

She asked Ye Wei to bring them some food, and the little yellow-haired boy accidentally spilled water on the head teacher.

The dean was a little angry, but after eating so many delicious dishes from them, he held his anger in. Ye Jin deliberately taught the little yellow-haired boy a lesson.

"You, why are you so impatient? Weiwei, take uncle downstairs and use a hair dryer to dry his clothes."

Ye Jin bought a hair dryer in the store. It can be used to blow hair and also to blow away the tape stuck on the wall. It is quite useful.

Sometimes when the weather is bad and it rains, you can use it as an emergency measure when your clothes and shoes get wet.

"OK."

Ye Wei didn't understand, she just did whatever her sister asked her to do.

Her sister had told her before that if the uncle asked about her experience, she could tell him the truth.

She took the dean downstairs and helped him plug in the hair dryer.

"Uncle, the switch for the hair dryer is here. You can adjust the speed up or down, and you can also adjust it to hot or cold."

Ye Wei demonstrated it briefly and the dean learned it quickly.

Although he held a high position, his salary was not high. His family could not afford a hair dryer, so naturally he had never used one.

After drying his clothes, his mood naturally improved, so he casually asked, "Little girl, how old are you?"

"I'm 13 this year."

Ye Wei remembered what her sister said and answered truthfully no matter what the man asked.

The principal has been teaching for many years and has a strong sense of justice, so he couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

"Why don't you continue studying at such a young age? Did you drop out of school to work in a store? What's your relationship with the store owner?"

"The shop owner is my sister, and I didn't drop out of school. I was abducted when I was a child, and my adoptive parents were afraid I would run away after learning, so they never sent me to school."

Ye Wei lowered her head, her eyes full of loss. She became very sad when she talked about her past experiences.

She had only a few years of education and her best years were wasted in her adoptive parents' home, where she helped wash vegetables and cook every day and also had to take care of her younger brother.

She is not an adopted daughter, but a nanny who doesn't get paid.

"Then you can still go to school now!"

Seeing how pitiful the little girl was, he couldn't help but say something more.

"My sister said I haven't even finished primary school and I'm so old that no school would accept me even if I wanted to go."

Ye Wei sniffed, tears welling up in her eyes.

At the age of eight, he should have been carefree, but he was abducted by human traffickers, and his life was completely disrupted. He could not go to school at such a young age and could only help with the cashier in his sister's store to make a living.

Although she is unfortunate, she is also lucky. At least her sister is a small boss and she can live a worry-free life.

She is lucky, but she is also unfortunate. She wants to go to school but cannot. Even if she goes, she may not be able to keep up. She needs to put in a hundred times or a thousand times more effort, and the final result may not be good.

"You can go to Qingshan Town No. 1 Middle School, I can help you!"

The head teacher felt sorry for her and couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.

He didn't think much about it and blurted out these words. The little girl was too weak and had suffered such a tragic experience. Calling her "uncle" all the time could really arouse people's desire to protect her.

Under normal circumstances, even if someone came to him for help, he might not be so enthusiastic, but this time he really wanted to help her.

"Really? But my sister said that life is not easy for everyone. I can't easily accept help from others if I can't repay them."

Ye Wei didn't know the identity of the dean yet, but she was already very happy that this stranger was willing to help her.

"It's just a matter of talking to me, but it's a life-changing event for you."

"But I have to say something unpleasant upfront. You've basically never been to school, and your foundation is very poor. If you can't handle the hardship of studying, even if I'm willing to help you, you might not be able to persevere."

This little girl hasn't been to school for five years. Not to mention whether she can abide by classroom discipline, she hasn't laid a good foundation. What the teacher is saying sounds like incomprehensible stuff to her.

If you want to continue studying after the three years of junior high school, you must work twice as hard. If you can't bear the hardship, you might as well stay in the store and make a living.

"I want to study, and I'm not afraid of hardship, but this is our first meeting, and I don't dare to trouble my uncle."

Ye Wei lowered her head again, looking very cautious. The dean felt even more pity for her. This little girl was so sensible. Such a good child had no chance to study because of the hurt she received from others.

Think about those people in school who have the opportunity but don't study hard. There is a huge difference.

It would be fine if he didn't encounter such a thing, but if he did, he would definitely intervene. Not to mention that this little girl's sister was quite considerate. The first time they came to eat at her house, she actually sent several small dishes.

The cost of the side dishes is not expensive, but since they taste so good and are served in such a luxuriously decorated restaurant, the final price will not be cheap.

This is someone else's kindness, they appreciate it, so it's not a bad idea to return the favor.

"I'll take care of this matter. Just wait for my news in the store."

The dean personally agreed to this matter. Ye Wei raised her head happily and stared at him with bright eyes.

"Uncle, thank you so much! I don't know how to repay you. How about you come over for breakfast every day? I'll treat you!"

Ye Wei was generous for once when she was happy. The dean of studies looked at her childish nature. She originally thought that she was being tricked, but now she has no idea at all and even deliberately joked.

"You're just a little girl who needs to go to school, and you can't earn much money yourself. How can you hire me?"

"My sister said I could come here to work and earn some money after school."

Ye Wei lowered her head shyly. She didn't feel ashamed at all for making money with her own hands.

"Nonsense! If you want to go to school, then study hard. Your foundation is not good to begin with. If you study and make money at the same time, you won't be able to keep up!"
