Teacher Zhou is leaving.

In the end, the children used two dollars to buy Teacher Zhou a very ordinary pen.

The last day before Teacher Zhou left.

Zhou Sese invited Teacher Zhou to her home for a meal.

Several children were also there.

Except for Xingxing, this was the first time for the other children to experience separation. Each of them looked like a little eggplant hit by frost, with their heads drooping and looking depressed.

Teacher Zhou also had gifts for the children, a whole stack of books. "These are some books I bought at school. They range from the picture books you like to the Four Great Classics. As you learn more and more characters, you can try reading more complex books. These are all for you."

Chunsheng pulled Teacher Zhou's arm and said, "Teacher Zhou, I will miss you. I will never forget you. When you finish this student course, you must come back to see us!"

Teacher Zhou pinched Chunsheng's cheek and said, "Yes, I will come back to see you during summer and winter vacations. Chunsheng, I hope that when I see you next time, you can get 60 points in every course."

Chunsheng patted his chest, looking very social. "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, I promise you! As a real man, I will definitely do what I promised you!"

Teacher Zhou's gaze fell on Jiang Dong again. "Jiang Dong, I hope that when I see you again next time, you will have become a graceful and elegant young man. I hope that every time we chat, you can look me in the eye. Jiang Dong, you are very smart, but sometimes you don't need to be so sensitive. If you are more open-minded, you will definitely discover a different world."

Jiang Dong also nodded.

Song Qingming is a second-grade student. Although the second grade is no longer under Teacher Zhou's supervision, he also walked up from Teacher Zhou's hand. Teacher Zhou patted Song Qingming on the back of his head.

As if recalling something funny, he said, "Song Qingming, you're very smart, but you've picked up your father's bad habits. You speak slowly and with a pinched accent. Change that."

Song Qingming chuckled, "I know, Teacher Zhou, you have to change too."

Teacher Zhou was slightly stunned. "What should I change?"

Song Qingming glanced at Chunsheng.

Chunsheng immediately shouted, "Teacher Zhou, please change your shyness towards female teachers. After you go to school, besides studying, you should also find a girlfriend!"

Teacher Zhou looked at the two of them and said, "See, Song Qingming's bad habit has come up again. He has to hear other people say what he is thinking."

Tsk tsk tsk.

What a good candidate to be an official.

Let’s have hotpot tonight.

A big pot was set up in the yard, with the firewood underneath burning vigorously. The hot pot base was fried by Zhou Sese herself, and it was so fragrant that it almost made people's noses fall off. At this moment, the hot pot was bubbling, and the greedy Da Huang tied at the gate was howling.

Zhou Sese, Sheng Yingying, Sister Yang and He Dahua brought out more than 30 kinds of ingredients from the kitchen one after another.

Diandian followed behind her mother, exclaiming non-stop, like Granny Liu who had just entered the Grand View Garden. "There are so many dishes, this must be the Manchu-Han banquet! I can't even count them all, I can only count to twenty-six now!"

He Dahua looked at the mutton, beef and pork and was a little hesitant. These meats tasted different. If they were stewed together in a big pot, what if the smells got mixed up?

But she didn't say anything.

If the taste is mixed, just eat it as a new dish.

All the dishes have been served, and Zhou Sese invited everyone to come and eat around the pot.

Sheng Xijiang also came over and sat down.

Then a bowl of clear soup noodles was placed in front of Sheng Xijiang.

Sheng Xijiang frowned slightly.

Sheng Yingying chuckled and said with a gloating look, "My sister-in-law said that your injury hasn't fully healed yet, so you can't eat spicy food, not even a little bit. So you can only watch us eat hot pot while you eat noodles."

Sheng Xijiang's eyes fell on the little kids.

Diandian realized that something was wrong and quickly hid in Zhou Sese's arms, "I...I may eat spicy food. My mother said I am a spicy girl. Dad, don't drag me to eat noodles with you! Dad, Dahuang can't eat spicy food. Why don't you go and eat with Dahuang."

Sheng Xijiang picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of noodles. Hearing this, he lowered his eyes and glared at his little daughter.

You are so filial.

Zhou Sese took care of Teacher Zhou, "Eat more."

Teacher Zhou quickly held out his bowl to take it, "Comrade Zhou, you should eat quickly too. There's no need to take special care of me. I won't take any food from you when I'm at your house."

"Are they all here?"

Chen Lie pushed open the door and came in, carrying pig offal and pork, explaining, "Early tomorrow morning, Chen Wei and I are going to the county to pick up a breeding pig. I was worried that the people down there would forget to deliver the meat, so I took advantage of my free time tonight to deliver it. It's cold, so it's okay to leave it overnight."

Zhou Sese quickly stood up to greet him. "Just call me directly. Didn't I give you my home phone number? Please come over in person. It's so late. Have you eaten? If not, let's eat together. "

Chen Lie's eyes fell on the fire in the middle of the yard. There was a big pot on top of it. Everyone was holding chopsticks and eating directly from the pot. It was a bit like the iron pot stew his mother used to make when she was alive.

Immediately following.

His eyes fell on the people around him who were putting their chopsticks into the pot. He looked around and lingered on Sheng Yingying for two seconds longer. "No, I have something else to do when I get back."

Zhou Sese smiled, "Okay, then I won't delay you."

She walked Chen Lie to the door, and Chen Lie, contrary to his usual behavior, paused, "Comrade Zhou, there is something I want to ask you."

Zhou Sese nodded repeatedly, "Just what you say."

Chen Lie seemed to be hesitating and struggling. He moved his mouth for a long time, but in the end, he didn't say a word. His face turned red before he said anything. "I suddenly remembered that it's nothing. I'll leave first."

After saying that, he fled in panic.

Zhou Sese was left standing there alone, and she seemed to be able to vaguely guess what Chen Lie had not said.

Zhou Sese smiled and turned back.

The hotpot meal lasted for two and a half hours, and everyone felt warm all over despite the cold winter.

Extremely comfortable.

All good things must come to an end.

Teacher Zhou stood up and touched the children's heads one by one. "Teacher is leaving. Remember to study hard and learn more words. When you have time, write to me. Comrade Zhou knows the address. Children, you don't have to see me off. I hope you can go to pick me up when I come, okay?"

Several boys had wet eyes, nodded vigorously, and waved vigorously.

Teacher Zhou walked out of the door amid the desperate waving of little hands.

Finally, the children couldn't help themselves and ran to the door.

Four little heads rushed out.

Looking at the direction where Teacher Zhou left.

Xingxing sniffed, clapped her hands, and began to sing, "Outside the long pavilion, beside the ancient road, the green grass stretches to the horizon... A pot of muddy wine will end my remaining joy, and I will not dream of the cold tonight..."
