Chapter 165: A little girl of eighteen or nineteen, can she do it?



The school principal's surname is Feng, and his given name is Wenshan. He is about fifty years old, a little nearsighted, and wears thick glass lenses. He is neatly dressed and has a natural bookish air about him. You can tell at first glance that he is a scholar.

On the way to school, Chu Yue had heard Chen Fengying tell gossip about Principal Feng. Principal Feng went to a private school when he was young. In that era, students who could go to private schools had very good family backgrounds.

It was precisely because of this good family background that Principal Feng suffered a lot of humiliation in the turbulent times that followed, and his life was extremely difficult.

His family also moved from the city to the mountains, and they lived there for more than ten years.

Over the years, Principal Feng's family members died one after another, and he has never been married and has been alone for all these years.

Later in recent years, the situation improved a little. Troops and military families came, and at the strong request of Song Hongmei, a school was established. Principal Feng was invited to become the principal because he had attended a private school and had a certain literary foundation.

Since then, he has regarded this school as his home and the students in the school as his own children, and has put all his attention on educating the students.

When talking about Principal Feng, the sisters-in-law, including Chen Fengying, could not help but praise him, saying that he was a very good principal who was very dedicated and conscientious.

Chen Fengying introduced Principal Feng to Chu Yue, and then immediately introduced Chu Yue, "Principal Feng, this is our Captain Lu's wife, and this is Captain Lu's child, Lu Yuanbao."

"Hello, Principal Feng." Chu Yue took the initiative to greet him.

Principal Feng pushed up the thick glasses on his nose, said hello to Chu Yue, then looked down at Lu Yuanbao and smiled.

"I have seen your information. Your name is Lu Yuanbao. Today is your first time at our school. It is also your first day of school, right? Children your age should study hard and work hard in the future, do you understand?"

Lu Yuanbao looked at the unfamiliar Principal Feng with a little nervousness and seriousness. He didn't say anything, but just nodded.

Principal Feng looked at him with great satisfaction and said to Chen Dazhuang, "Dazhuang, take the new students to the classroom and take good care of them."

"Got it, Principal Feng, let's go!"

Because of his poor academic performance, Chen Dazhuang hated talking to the principal and teachers the most, and he wanted to pull Lu Yuanbao away immediately.

But Lu Yuanbao didn't want to leave for the time being.

Chen Dazhuang was taller and stronger than Lu Yuanbao, yet he failed to pull Lu Yuanbao. He tilted his head and scratched the back of his head in confusion.

Lu Yuanbao looked up at Chu Yue, "I'm going to school."

Chu Yue said, "Well, go ahead. I'll pick you up after school this afternoon."

After hearing this, Lu Yuanbao waved to Chu Yue, then took a step forward and followed Chen Dazhuang to the classroom. He could still hear Chen Dazhuang's confused voice.

"Yuanbao, are you so strong? Why couldn't I pull you just now..."

"Because I exercise every morning..."

The voices of the two children were getting farther and farther away. After Teacher Feng had a brief conversation with Chu Yue and Chen Fengying, he went to look at the other children who were coming to school.

"Chu sister, let's go, we can go back." Chen Fengying called Chu Yue to go back together, but she saw Chu Yue looking at the classroom not far away, her eyes motionless, "What's wrong? It's Yuanbao's first day of school, are you still worried?"

"no."

Chu Yue shook her head, but couldn't explain why she was not looking at Lu Yuanbao's classroom, but at Principal Feng who was not far away.

Principal Feng is polite and courteous, and is also kind and friendly to the children. He is a good principal in everyone's eyes, but Chu Yue always feels that something is wrong.

I can't really put it into words, it's more like a sixth sense.

Perhaps she was too wary and suddenly handed Lu Yuanbao over to a stranger, and she couldn't let it go.

Or maybe it was because she had been living with Lu Yuanbao day and night recently, and now that there was suddenly no one around her, she felt a little uncomfortable.

Chu Yue collected her thoughts and looked at Chen Fengying, "Sister-in-law Chen, let's go back."

Chen Fengying thought Chu Yue was still worried about the child, so she continued to persuade her, "Sister Chu, don't worry, your Yuanbao is very smart, he will be fine. When my Dazhuang went to school on his first day, he cried all day long. You didn't see it, it was so funny. Your Yuanbao is so sensible and doesn't cry or make a fuss. If you are really worried, we can come and pick him up early after school today."

Chu Yue responded, "Okay, let's come earlier this afternoon. I just promised Yuan Bao that I would pick him up after school."

Unfortunately, Chu Yue’s promise was not fulfilled that day, because as soon as Chu Yue returned to the compound gate from school, she was stopped by Song Hongmei.

After meeting Chu Yue, Song Hongmei spoke to her alone and briefly explained the situation of the medical team.

She was a smart person and did not mention that the reason for this situation was He Meijiao's sudden departure. She only said that there was a shortage of medical staff in the army and she was unable to make any arrangements.

"...Sister Chu, this is my personal request, not an order from the organization. If you don't want to, you can just refuse. Don't feel embarrassed." Song Hongmei said tactfully.

But before she could finish, Chu Yue said bluntly.

"Sister Song, don't make it difficult. I am willing to do it."

Just visiting a few nearby villages and treating some elderly people and children was an easy task and quite simple for Chu Yue.

Song Hongmei didn't expect Chu Yue to agree so readily, and was very surprised, "Sister Chu, are you agreeing?"

"Well, that's a good thing. Now that I'm here, I should make a contribution."

When Song Hongmei heard Chu Yue's words, her eyes lit up. The material conditions have improved in recent years, but the people's spirit of dedication has declined. She didn't expect Chu Yue to agree so readily, let alone say such words.

It hit the nail on the head!

Now that she looked at Chu Yue, she liked her more and more. This girl could be trained well!

Although Chu Yue agreed, she also had a small request, "Sister Song, can we come back in the afternoon? I promised Yuan Bao that I would pick him up after school."

"Yes! We can! This is your first time on a mission, and we won't be going too far. We can definitely make it back and forth on the same day."

Chu Yue responded, "Okay."

The matter was settled, and Song Hongmei took Chu Yue to meet the other two male comrades who were traveling with them, Li Weiguo and Xue Zhanlin. Both of them were cadres in the township and had worked with Song Hongmei for many years.

After listening to Song Hongmei's introduction and looking at Chu Yue's young face, the two men asked contemptuously.

"Sister Song, is this the candidate you mentioned? She's just an 18 or 19-year-old girl. Can she do it?"
