In her previous life, her eldest brother died early, her second sister went blind due to illness, her third brother became autistic, and she herself lived a life of poverty and hardship, scavenging...
"What?" Zhou Zuoping stood up immediately. "Professor Chu is willing to teach there?"
Zhou Xiang's face was serious. "Yes! For me, the teacher has been worrying too much. He just wants to teach freely. Please don't assign him any position.
As for the teaching staff, some will come from the capital, and some will be dispatched from the county. You just need to recruit according to the requirements. We can't just hire everyone who comes. We still have to give them a trial lesson."
Zhou Zuoping clapped his hands and said, "I'm really happy that so many people are taking care of this school. Great, great! I was just telling your Aunt Chen that the school's hardware is very advanced, and I wondered if the teaching staff can keep up! Now it's all right, no need to worry."
As for the source of students, I don't think we need to worry. All we need to do is provide Professor Chu's resume and support from the capital. However, the entrance examination is inevitable."
Zhou Xiang nodded. "You'll need to take care of these for a while. The vice principals of the elementary and junior high schools are Principal Li and Principal Zhang. They're preparing to apply for retirement, so we need to avoid suspicion."
"It's okay, it's okay. The teachers are here. I'll ask Professor Chu for help. The enrollment issue will be handled by next summer vacation! There's no rush."
"Yes!" Zhou Xiang nodded. "I want to ask Brother Zhou to take charge of the entire school's logistics. Can you please convey this to me?"
Zhou Zuoping nodded. "Sure. Yizhou has changed a lot since he started working at the school. He's also invested so much love in it. If you ask him to be the head of logistics, he'll definitely be willing. It's a pity for Liu Xuewen!"
"Yeah!" Zhou Xiang sighed, "I originally planned to make him the vice principal of the high school department, but now I have to worry about who to replace him!
By the way, Aunt Chen is idle at home, do you want to go to school to get a job? Even working with Brother Zhou in logistics would be nice! Or as a cashier,
My school has three parts, and the kindergarten is part of the primary school. Each part needs an accountant and cashier, so Mao Xiaolu and Luo Shaoying alone are not enough."
When Chen Wenlian heard that they were all acquaintances, she was also tempted, "How about I and Mao Xiaolu be the cashiers."
Zhou Zuoping immediately stopped him, "No, I'm the principal, and Yizhou is in logistics. If you become a cashier, even if our family has no ill intentions, others will make wild suspicions. You go into logistics, leading the junior high school department. It's the easiest of the three departments, and you can work under my son."
"So, not only am I under your control, but I also have to be under my son's control?"
"That's it."
Zhou wanted to hold back his laughter, but showing such a smile in front of the younger generation showed that Uncle Zhou and Aunt Chen had a very good relationship.
"Then Aunt Chen will take over the logistics of the junior high school."
Chen Wenlian nodded. "Okay, okay, okay. They're both going to school now, and Weibin will definitely go to a new school too. Why should I stay? Let's go and get a four-bedroom apartment together."
Zhou Xiang agreed immediately. "Of course, the four-bedroom apartments are for senior executives, so Uncle Zhou should choose them first. But, hey, there's no elevator. The higher you go, the more tired you get!"
Zhou Zuoping couldn't understand this. "Why don't we even have an elevator in the dormitory building?"
"I'm tired from teaching and sitting in the office, so climbing stairs is a good way to get some aerobic exercise."
Zhou Zuoping didn't care whether she was telling the truth or not, he just wanted to buy a house first, "Okay, I'll take your Aunt Chen to see a house today. If you like it, it's currently being renovated if you need it."
"That's right. Isn't the decorator, Master Dai, still waiting in the town? The dormitories are all simply decorated. If you're not satisfied, you can ask him to continue the decoration."
After the negotiation was completed, the two returned to Zhou's residence. Village Chief Guan saw them and shook the contract in his hand and said, "I asked you to come this morning. Where have you been?"
Sitting down on the sofa, Zhou Xiangcai said, "I've already finished two things this morning. The morning is too long. How would I know when you'll come? Where's Hao Heng?"
Village Chief Guan flashed the signed document in front of her and said, "Boss Hao has finished signing and is now going to the food station. He said he'll take it to the notarization office after you finish signing."
Zhou Xiang took the contract and saw Hao Heng signed it, so he picked up the pen and signed his name.
Village Chief Guan was surprised, "You don't read the contract?"
"Who printed this?" Zhou Xiang shook the contract in his hand.
"Boss Hao went to print it."
"That's it, isn't it? Could he possibly team up with you to deceive me? Sign it and leave it here. You can come back to get your copy after it's notarized on Monday."
"Where's the money?"
Zhou Xiang waved his hand on the coffee table, "Here, 45,000. Order before you leave."
Village Chief Guan took out a cloth bag from his pocket and stuffed the money into it. "No matter what, I'll deposit it in the bank right now. If it's wrong or fake, I'll come back to you."
"I don't recognize it."
"I don't recognize it, but there's no way all these are fake, right?"
"Is Village Chief Guan now wealthy and powerful?"
"I trust you."
After Village Chief Guan left, Zhou Yan came running over with his younger brother and sister, "Auntie, we want to go see the piglets."
"It's such a big piglet, what's so good about it?"
"Looks great! It feels stupid running."
"Okay, okay, auntie will risk her life to accompany you. Ask your dad to come along. Why are you staying in the house all day?"
"Okay, I'll go and shout."
He gulped down two sips of water and then went to the food station with a group of idiots.
Zhou Xiang took a few steps back and walked side by side with his elder brother, "Brother, you are in a completely wrong mood after coming back from Yan'er!"
Zhou Niao raised his hand and rubbed his sister's head. "Give me some time. I'm surprised and happy, but at the same time, I can't accept it. The previous interruption for more than 20 years has not been fully restored, and Yan'er feels like a broken link here. I need time to recover and ease."
Zhou Xiang nodded and said, "Brother, if there's anything you can't get over, just tell us and we'll analyze it together. Family members don't hold grudges overnight. Didn't I forgive Jin Chao for the incident?
If you take my and Mom's tempers personally, a knot will form and distance will arise."
Zhou Niao paused for a moment, then immediately smiled. "That's right! My sister is right. I'm being too picky. When I wasn't sober before, I was often beaten and scolded, but I could still forgive my cousins. Why do I have some thoughts when it comes to mom and sister? It seems that I am a little hypocritical."
Zhou Xiang took his eldest brother's arm and asked, "Do you hate Mom in your heart?"
Zhou Niao shook his head. "No, I just feel like I've recovered, but I'm not as worry-free as before!"
"Nonsense, we're relieved now that you're awake. As an adult, the things you have to learn and the pressure you have to bear are different. Do you still feel stressed suddenly? It's because of Yan'er."
"A little bit," Zhou Niao nodded, "I suddenly had the responsibility of being a father, and I don't know how to do it."
Zhou Xiang chuckled, "Everyone is a novice parent. My dad has been a father four times, but he still doesn't know how to be a father. Be sincere and learn by doing."
"Yes! My dad was a mess, but he was a good grandfather."
"Of course, he has cooking skills. Children can be coaxed into submission with delicious food."
The brother and sister talked and laughed, and the little rift between them disappeared.
