Tsk.

No wonder he found a wife at such a young age. With his obedience to the three obediences and four virtues and his filial piety, if he could learn even half of that, would he have needed to be disliked for so many years?

Thinking this, Song Yu acted even more diligently, and looked at Qin Sheng in a cooperative manner.

Qin Sheng: "...I'll listen to my mom."

Song Yu: "..."

Fu Jingheng: "..."

Gu Yueming: "..."

Gu Yueming cleared her throat twice, pretended to think for a moment, and then said, "Speaking of which, Chairman Song has been in Ancheng for so long, and the Qin family hasn't formally invited you to a meal yet. There's no time like the present, so how about today?"

"I'll have my family make some preparations. After the parent-teacher meeting, Mr. Song, how about you bring your wife and son to our house for a meal?"

Song Yu: "...Okay."

I don't know how things got to this point, but oh well, I guess.

He remembered that his father-in-law seemed to have a good relationship with the old man of the Qin family, so it shouldn't be a problem for his family to have dinner at the Qin family's house, right?

Song Yu thought to himself and looked at his wife.

Wen Muyun glanced away and nodded.

Song Yu was relieved and replied again, "Then I shall respectfully accept your offer."

Then the group dispersed.

Mrs. Ji was left completely bewildered and in a state of utter disbelief.

It wasn't until all the other parents who had been watching the commotion had left that she came to her senses, her face turning pale and ashen.

Turning her head, she saw her son, who was also pale-faced.

Ji Yangchen was the school's most handsome boy and the student council president. He had been busy entertaining the parents until a classmate told him that his mother and Qin Sheng's mother had a fight, at which point he dropped what he was doing and rushed over.

As soon as I arrived, I heard Song Yu talking about "Western Development" and "Trillion-Yuan Plan," and also... the Fu family.

"He's actually from the Fu family of Tiandu..." Ji Yangchen murmured, somewhat lost in thought.

Ji Yangchen is the only son of the Ji family and also Mrs. Ji's only hope. Seeing how distressed he was, she couldn't care less about herself.

She quickly stepped forward to comfort him, saying, "She's just a girl who wants to climb the social ladder. She's not good enough for our Chenchen. Don't be sad, Chenchen. Mom will find you someone better later."

Ji Yangchen didn't want to talk about this topic, so he forced a smile and said, "Mom, I heard that Mrs. Qin made a move against you."

Mrs. Ji's face stiffened for a moment, but fearing that her son would worry, she still said, "Mom is fine, I just need to go back and rest for a couple of days."

Ji Yangchen wasn't in the mood to say much at the moment, so he just nodded and said, "I'll have the driver come pick you up. You should go home and rest first."

Mrs. Ji was stunned: "Then the parent-teacher conference..."

"It's okay, I'll just let the homeroom teacher know," Ji Yangchen said, turning to walk out as he spoke. "I have something to do with the student council, I'll head over there first."

Mrs. Ji reached out her hand, but it fell limply to the ground.

She watched the direction Ji Yangchen had left, her gaze constantly shifting.

Suddenly, she gritted her teeth and said fiercely, "So what if it's the Fu family? The person my son likes must belong to my son!"

Class parent-teacher meetings are much simpler, mainly consisting of each class teacher analyzing the specific situation of their students and giving different suggestions.

Wen Muyun is a very dedicated teacher.

Before the parent-teacher meeting, she had compiled information on each student in the class, and when she arrived at the classroom, she distributed the information to each student's parents.

Gu Yueming also received a note the size of an A5 sheet of paper, but compared to the notes from other parents, hers was much simpler, containing only one sentence: "Early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy."

Gu Yueming peeked at the notes left by the parents of the students nearby and saw that there were a dozen or twenty notes filled with writing.

Looking at the one in his hand, he couldn't help but think: "..."

I immediately made a silent vow to myself that I would cooperate with the teacher to supervise my daughter to go to bed early... Oh well, let her go to bed early then.

It's a rare weekend when I can sleep in, and if I wake everyone up, my daughter will be unhappy, let alone happy. She'll be reluctant to let me go.

Gu Yueming silently put the note into her pocket.

The class parent meeting lasted for about an hour before it ended.

It was already past four o'clock.

Yes, the grade-level parent-teacher meeting lasted a full two hours, and the school leaders were as talkative as ever...

To Qin Sheng's surprise, she received an unexpected windfall after a parent-teacher meeting.

Looking at the bank card that Director Wang had stuffed into her hand, Qin Sheng paused for a moment and asked, "What's this?"

Director Wang didn't know whether to be angry or amused: "Didn't you send Mr. Lu away and say you'd be the guest lecturer? Have you already forgotten?"

Oh, this.

I do remember, but...

"The school is quite wealthy?"

Ten million, just like that, he took it out immediately?

Director Wang's hair stood on end, and he hurriedly said, "No, the school is extremely poor, so poor that all that's left are the teachers!"

Qin Sheng: "..."

She was just asking casually; there's no need to be so nervous.

Director Wang, fearing that this guy might be eyeing the school's money, quickly said, "Of the ten million in salary you're receiving, six million comes from donations from the parents of students in each class. Everyone has said they hope the students can learn from you and get into better universities with your help."

He paused, then continued, somewhat reluctantly, "And there's another two million, as you know, donated by Mrs. Ji."

So the school actually contributed two million.

Moreover, half of these two million was paid out of school board chairman Song's own pocket, as a way of thanking Qin Sheng for tutoring Song Yanzhi, which enabled him to make great progress.

Yes, the school is really poor.

Qin Sheng understood the composition of her salary for the next six months, and thus accepted it without any qualms.

After thinking about it, I sent Lin Sihe a WeChat message: "[I remember there are a few members in the association who often participate in compiling college entrance exam questions. Could you ask them if they are available to work part-time at Chunhe No. 1 Middle School next semester?]"

Lin Sihe was somewhat surprised to receive the message; she was quite concerned about the students of Chunhe No. 1 Middle School.

However, he immediately forwarded her message to the academic association's main group chat, asking directly: "Who wants to go?"

Then there's a bunch of +1s.

More than twenty people signed up.

Lin Sihe smiled, selected a few people he thought were suitable, then created a separate group for them, and also added Qin Sheng to it.

Qin Sheng glanced at it and then immediately pulled Director Wang into the group.

Seeing the bewildered look on Director Wang's face, she helped him revise the notes while explaining, "Five people: Lu Hai from Tsinghua University, Fang Yuan and Dong Jingzhang from Tianjin University, Ge Jun from Nanjing Normal University Affiliated High School, and He Liji from the Education Bureau. They are all people who have participated in setting the college entrance examination questions and will be working part-time next semester."

She handed the phone, now with the corrected nickname, back to Director Wang and said, "Okay, you can talk to them now."

Director Wang... Director Wang almost knelt down before her!

After a long pause, he finally managed to utter, "The salary..."
