"no."
Shen Changan, who was seriously correcting homework, denied it without even raising his head.
But in the whole school, besides Teacher Zheng, only Teacher Shen would send him things.
Teacher Zheng had taken a long vacation for some family matters these days. She was not at school and it was impossible for her to make an extra trip just to give him a gift.
As for other teachers, although they earn a lot, generally no one is so generous as to give away half a month's salary at one time.
Only Teacher Shen is different from others. Whether it is his dress or his conversation, he exudes nobility everywhere.
Only someone like him would be willing to spend money to buy such a big box of stationery for him, right?
But Teacher Shen, who is most likely to have given him the gift, refuses to admit it. Who else could it be?
Jiang Yi stood in front of Shen Changan for a long time, but Shen Changan still lowered his head and didn't look at him.
Jiang Yi had no choice but to carry the box back to the classroom.
Not long after Jiang Yi left, Shen Changan raised his head and stared at his back for a long time.
"You little brat, you still want to fight me? You're really a little immature."
No matter how smart Jiang Yi was in studying, he never expected that Teacher Shen, who was always calm and reliable, would actually play tricks on him.
Jiang Yi returned to his seat and supported his head to think for a long time, but he couldn't figure out who sent this box.
His sister just told him not to accept Teacher Shen’s gift. Now even Teacher Shen doesn’t admit that the gift was given by him. Does that mean he can take the box back?
Jiang Yi listened attentively in class, but continued to worry after class.
During this process, he didn't even dare to leave his seat for too long, and even drinking water and going to the toilet were done in a hurry.
Jiang Yi was struggling with this until school was over. He scratched his head, wondering whether he should take the box of stationery back.
It’s a bit dangerous to leave such a good thing in school. If someone steals it, I won’t have anywhere to cry.
But if he takes it back, doesn’t that mean he accepts the gift box?
I hate it, I'm being led around by the nose. But it feels really good to have someone chase me and give me gifts.
Jiang Yi returned home with the gift in his arms, feeling conflicted.
Jiang Yi happened to pass by the office when he left, and Shen Changan's smile grew even wider as he looked at his back.
If you want to protect the dignity of children from poor families, you can only use this roundabout method.
If it is given directly to Jiang Yi, he will definitely not accept it, and it may also hurt the child's self-esteem.
After much consideration, Shen Changan had to adopt this method.
As soon as Jiang Yi entered the door, Jiang Li saw what he was holding in his hands.
"Jiang Yi, where did you get the thing in your hand?"
Jiang Li reminded him yesterday that he must not accept Shen Changan's kindness.
Just one day later, this kid went against her. He really didn't take his sister seriously.
"Sister, things are not what you think. I can explain."
Then Jiang Yi recounted the whole story at a very fast speed.
Because he was anxious and afraid that his sister would misunderstand him, he spoke as fast as a machine gun.
"Okay, okay, I already know. According to what you said, someone is plotting against you and forcing you to accept this gift, right?"
"Yes, yes, sister, that's it. What else can I do except accept it?"
Jiang Li's mind raced, she put herself in her brother's shoes and thought again and again, what would she do? For safety's sake, she probably had no choice but to take the item.
"Take your things back."
Jiang Li pressed her temples, but she had no other choice.
This Shen Changan is so cunning!
I have a firm grasp on people's hearts, but I didn't expect that such a smart person would fall into that trap.
As soon as Jiang Yi put down his schoolbag, several villagers greeted them at the door.
"Jiang Yi, are you going to get a haircut today?"
"Li, why wouldn't you do something good like this if you can make money?"
Jiang Yi learned the skill of hairdressing in just one day. Although his technique is a bit rusty now, he can earn one cent for each haircut, which is quite cost-effective if you calculate it carefully.
Especially for a poor child like him, whose family life is difficult, it is not easy to eat and go to school, and every penny is hard-earned.
His sister is very good to him. Her birthday is coming soon, and Jiang Yi wants to save some money to buy a gift for her.
He had never had money before and had never given anything to his sister. This time he suddenly had this idea because he had the ability to make money.
Jiang Yi quickly took out a small stool from the house and placed it there, and Jiang Li helped to bring out the barber tools.
Those who come to Jiang Yi for a haircut are all grown men, and they don't have any requirements for their hairstyle.
Jiang Li opened the door and they sat down on the stools.
Jiang Yi skillfully covered them with towels and then began to remove excess hair with a manual clipper.
With yesterday's experience, Jiang Yi was much smoother and faster today.
With his skillful hands, he quickly shaved a head.
The uncle touched his new hairstyle, made sure there were no bumps on the back of his head, and gave Jiang Yi a dime very readily.
Jiang Yi happily accepted the money and felt happy.
He shaved the hair of five people in a row and received a total of fifty cents.
I originally thought that I could finish the work after this, but I didn't expect that a few more uncles would come over in a team.
Jiang Yi quickly set up the reception for them. One of the old men had just sat down when Jiang Yi was about to help him cut his hair when he was stopped by the old man.
"You are a young man, your barbering skills are not good enough. I am planning to go on a long trip this time, so let your sister do it."
"My sister charges 30 cents for a haircut, but mine only costs 10 cents."
Jiang Yi knew that he lacked experience and his only advantage was his price, so he tried his best to promote himself.
"It's fine if it's three cents. You should have a better hairstyle when you're going to visit relatives."
The old man had set his sights on Jiang Li and was willing to spend an extra two cents. Jiang Yi had no choice but to go in and look for his sister.
"Sister, Mr. Liu from the village said that my barbering skills are not good enough, so he insisted that you take over. What do you think?"
"He's done more than a dozen haircuts to reach this level. I think you're pretty impressive. Uncle Liu is willing to spend more money with me, so I'll go and make a little money from him!"
Jiang Li is very good at talking, and Jiang Yi felt comfortable listening to him.
He nodded obediently: "Sister, let's go make money. You have good skills and you earn more, I have poor skills and I earn less."
"No one is born with good skills. If you practice a few more times, your level will definitely be better than mine. By then, others will be willing to pay you 50 cents instead of 30 cents to me. Then you will be a true master."
Jiang Yi's eyes sparkled when he thought of this situation.
If only he was really that skilled and could make so much money!
