Several people immediately looked at her, "Teacher Chen, please tell me what you think."

Chen Qiangwei, "People bring their children here for two main reasons: one is that there's no one to look after them, and the other is that if you can get a good deal, you're a jerk. They do it just because they see other families doing it.

The solution is simple: open a nursery. The big factories and government agencies in the city all have nurseries specifically to look after their employees' children. They provide one meal a day at noon and charge two yuan for food per semester. We don't provide meals, so we charge thirty cents per semester."

Huang Meixia clapped her hands and said, "Yes, we don't have to worry about lunch here. The older brothers and sisters take their younger brothers and sisters home after school and bring them to school in the afternoon.

We just need to find someone who is patient and capable of taking care of the children. There is no need to teach them anything. We just need to keep an eye on the children and make sure they don’t get hurt, fight, or have any accidents.

Just like Third Grandma, if you pay work points every day, I believe many people would be willing to be a nursery teacher."

Because of the hot weather, children in Huaihua Brigade often go swimming without permission every year, no matter how much their parents warn them. Drowning is not uncommon, but most cases are caused by illness or colds, and there are also rare cases of drowning.

Gu Linger's eyes lit up. "Good idea. I'll go back and discuss it with my dad. The meeting is adjourned."

Gu Aiguo glanced at Gu Linger and said, "This isn't something you came up with, is it?"

They know their own business and their own daughter well, so they definitely can't come up with such a good idea.

Your dad is still your dad.

Gu Linger nodded decisively, "Yes, it was Qiangwei who came up with it. I think this method is very good. What do you think, Dad?"

Liu Jinhua quickly said, "I also think Qiangwei's idea is good. There are always some naughty children who go into the water without permission. We can learn from the people in the city and build a place to keep the children under surveillance so that the adults can go back to work without worry."

Liu Jinhua felt relieved. She was very satisfied with Chen Zhiqing, no, she was very satisfied with Qiangwei. She was good-looking, smart, and most importantly, had a big butt that was good for giving birth. It would be even better if Qiangwei had a formal job like Xiaowu.

Wang Zhaodi felt unhappy when she saw her mother-in-law's face beaming whenever she mentioned Chen Zhiqing. "Chen Zhiqing is nice, but it's a pity he's not an employee. Our Xiaowu is a well-known truck driver."

Gu Ling'er and Gu Anyang had been together since their mother's womb, and their relationship was better than with her four older brothers. She also had a very good relationship with Chen Qiangwei, and she couldn't stand seeing her second sister-in-law giving Chen Qiangwei any favors.

"Even though Qiangwei isn't a regular employee, she receives packages and remittances every month, plus the primary school teacher's allowance, so her life is no worse than that of a regular employee. I don't want some people who not only can't generate income for their families, but also eat their own food."

Wang Zhaodi was so embarrassed by her sister-in-law's words that her face turned red. "Mom and Dad, look at Ling'er. She doesn't even see me as her sister-in-law. She's accusing me of betraying her family just for an outsider."

Although it was true that she liked to steal things from her parents' home, but after being pointed out so bluntly by Gu Linger, even if she was thick-skinned, she wanted to find a hole to hide in.

Unfortunately, Gu Aiguo and Liu Jinhua also disliked the second son's wife's disloyal nature, and Liu Jinhua rolled her eyes.

Gu Aiguo tried to smooth things over, "Alright, stop talking. Ling'er, let's get back to the nursery."

However, Liu Jinhua made up her mind that when Gu Xiaowu came back the day after tomorrow, she would urge him to get married quickly, otherwise it would be too late if someone else snatched her away.

Chen Zhiqing had lost her parents, and her uncle's family was obviously not short of money, so they gave her a monthly allowance, so she didn't have to scrape anything from the house. Where could she find such a good daughter-in-law?

Because Gu Xiaowu injured his shoulder while traveling long distances, the factory took into consideration that Gu Xiaowu's injury had just healed, so they arranged for him to take short trips within the province in the past two months, allowing him to spend more time at home.

Gu Linger said, "Dad, I think we can build the nursery next to our elementary school. There's plenty of space inside. We can build a big mud house, a big shed outside, and then use bamboo poles to surround the courtyard. We don't have to worry about the sun and rain, and we don't have to worry about the children running out on their own."

Gu Aiguo tapped his pipe and said, "This method is feasible. I'll discuss it with the others tomorrow. If they agree, we'll get started. We're not busy right now, so it will be done in a few days."

As the team leader, few people refuted Gu Aiguo's words, and building this nursery would benefit everyone, so they would not object.

Gu Aiguo did what he said. He immediately arranged for people to build a nursery and spread the word that children attending primary school were not allowed to bring their younger siblings to class to disrupt class order. Children at home who had no one to take care of them could be placed in the nursery. The tuition fee was 30 cents per semester.

As soon as the news came out, no students brought their babies to class anymore, and many people came to the school to ask the teachers about the nursery.

After listening to the introduction of Chen Qiangwei and others, many people were still very interested and expressed that they would follow the trend and learn from the city people to send their children to nurseries.

At 48 cents a pound of eggs these days, I could get someone to babysit my child for a semester for less than the price of a pound of eggs. It's definitely better than having to worry about whether my child is going to play in the water again while working.

Of course, there are some people who are reluctant to spend the three cents, and of course Chen Qiangwei and others do not force them.

In the village, people over fifty years old work in the fields every day to earn work points. A few less work points means less food. Unlike city dwellers, who have a comfortable life, they retire at a certain age and then use their pension to look after their grandchildren at home.

Gu Anyang rushed home as soon as he got off work. He hadn't seen Weiwei for a week. He touched the thing in his pocket, wondering if Weiwei would like it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned home, his mother urged him to get married.

Gu Anyang blushed, which was rare for him. "Mom, what are you talking about? I'm still young."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit by an iron sand palm. "What do you mean by small? When I was eighteen, your second brother was born. Just open your eyes and look, all the guys of your age in our team have children running around.

Besides, Qiangwei is almost 20, she's beautiful and comes from a better-off family. If you don't hurry up and someone else snatches her away, I'll see how you'll regret it."

Gu Anyang's eyes turned fierce, "Who?"

Liu Jinhua was startled by his fierce aura, then she came to her senses and slapped him on the back again, "I'm just reminding you, why are you being so fierce? If you have the guts, you can be fierce to Qiangwei."

Gu Anyang quickly walked behind her mother and turned into a masseur, "Mom, I didn't mean to do this, but I couldn't help it when I heard you say you were being robbed. How's the strength? Is it comfortable?"

Gu Aiguo was a man of decisive character, and the nursery was built in less than a week. When people from the two neighboring brigades heard that there was a nursery in Huaihua Brigade, they came to ask if they could help heat up the food they brought as their children would not go at noon. After receiving a positive answer, they also signed up to send their children to the nursery.

In the end, the nursery enrolled nearly fifty children, and the number of teachers increased from one to two.

As for the selection of teachers, it is still under discussion.
