The seven little ones were right behind Xie Lin. After hearing about Shi Shi's trip to Beijing, Xiao Shi was incredibly envious and said that he would ask his mother to take him to Beijing when school was out for a holiday. He also lamented that his father had to go to work.
He remembered his mother saying that his aunt had gone to school and that her work in the warehouse required record-keeping. To make her job easier, she had also studied the books her nieces and nephews used. If his aunt came to work here...
He gestured for Han Shuyun to come to the side and suggested to her, "Auntie, why don't you apply for a teaching job?"
"This school is short of teachers, and the elementary school curriculum shouldn't be too difficult. If you have any ideas, you can mention it to the principal."
Han Shuyun's eyes lit up.
Although they had some savings, they would eventually run out, and it was quite a burden for He Chaoyang to support his wife and son on his own.
When the junior teacher grows up, gets married, has children, and finds a job, she will need money for everything, so she can't just live off her savings.
Every job is a one-person-one-position job, and her husband told her not to rush into finding one, but to wait until she meets someone suitable. She felt that being a teacher would be a good fit.
An hour later, Han Shuyun's mouth was twisted into a grin.
I've hit the jackpot! I came to visit my niece and ended up getting a great job for free.
They were all family, and Zhang Tong was happy for her. He didn't find Lou Xiaomin's mournful face so bothersome anymore.
The principal, holding the high-scoring exam paper, was also very pleased, remarking that a cultured person is indeed a cultured person, who did not abandon knowledge because of the current situation.
Who would have thought that a housewife in her thirties could score higher than the educated youth sent to the countryside?
The term "educated youth" is euphemistically called "cultured people from the city," but few of them actually meet the standard. Apart from having higher nostrils than others, they are no different from villagers in every other way.
Since there was already a shortage of teachers, he accepted Han Shuyun without any delay, and only needed to prepare her file later.
The school was originally built with funds from the military, and with the Xiao family's connections, he wasn't worried about Han Shuyun's character at all.
Lou Xiaomin never expected that simply making things difficult for a student would cost her her job.
She wasn't dismissed because the principal was unaware of the situation in Beijing. The person who had pulled strings was from the Education Bureau, and he didn't want to lose face, so he kept her on.
Another point is that having an extra teacher to share the workload means that other teachers won't have to endure their headaches or fevers until the weekend.
She went from being the homeroom teacher to a class coordinator, and because several of Zhou Shi's students strongly requested that she not coordinate classes for the first graders.
It sounds glorious, as teaching second graders is more academically advanced than teaching first graders, but in reality, it's incredibly frustrating.
The principal quickly processed Han Shuyun's enrollment, personally taking her to the first-grade classroom so she could start working immediately.
"Students, this is Ms. Han Shuyun, who will be your homeroom teacher from now on. If you have any questions, please talk to Ms. Han, understand?"
Students: ? ? ?
The teacher became a completely different person after just one trip?
Shishi and the others had already returned to their seats.
The young teacher sat alone in the empty seat next to her, her face full of pride.
"Okay, okay, I know, my mom is the best."
"My aunt is the best."
"My aunt is the best."
"Aunt Han is the best."
Excited voices echoed throughout the classroom.
Students: ...So they were all people with connections.
Seeing that her classmates were just staring blankly and not saying anything, Shishi took out a handful of marbles from her bag.
"Call me Auntie, and I'll give you two."
Bribery is conducted openly and honestly.
The principal smiled and left the classroom.
He's old, he's too old to play with kids anymore.
"Teacher Han is the best, I like Teacher Han the most." A little child's voice was clear and loud.
Once one happens, another follows, and the bold and the timid alike shout with glee, revealing innocent smiles—they're happier than ever to see their own mothers.
The patriarch received a subtle look from his wife, counted the number of children, and then remotely announced them, showing great indulgence.
Han Shuyun was amused; the little girl really had a lot of clever ideas.
Her first lesson wasn't about teaching knowledge, but about distributing marbles.
Zhang Tong brought the mother and son to see the child. Now that the older one is at work and the younger one is in school, it was an unexpected joy. She told Xie Lin and then went back.
Because they got marbles for free, and heard Xingxing and the others calling Shishi Queen, they felt they had to follow the custom since they had been "bribed" and all started calling Shishi Queen.
In just one morning, the number of the Queen's followers increased several times over. Shishi knew that they were different from Xingxing and the other little brothers; they were only shouting because they got toys, but she was still happy.
"I have candy at home, I'll bring it to you this afternoon, two pieces each."
There's plenty of sugar in the space; enough to bury the enormous bodies of the eldest and second eldest brothers.
But she preferred milk candy and that sweet-bitter candy; she didn't touch the fruit candy at all, and didn't feel bad taking out even a tiny bit.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Sugar.
They couldn't get one all year round, but by calling her "Queen," they could get two. They've hit the jackpot!
"Your Majesty, you are the best queen."
"My Queen, you will always be my Queen."
"Queen, Queen, Queen..."
When someone is happy, they walk with a bouncy gait, and their smile never fades.
On the street, she encountered an old lady who had fallen. She was in an extremely good mood, so she picked her up and gave her some serious advice.
"Child...Grandma, watch your step when you walk, it will hurt a lot if you fall."
The old lady who dropped a penny on the ground and squatted down to pick it up: ......
It got cold, and her back ached. She struggled for a long time, supporting her back and legs, before finally squatting down. Her hands were outstretched, and her fingernails even touched the money. And then...
Her back ached, but she was still quick-witted and wanted to say something as soon as she opened her mouth. The sharp-eyed patriarch picked up the penny and put it in her hand.
