Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Mother-in-law, I see that you still have your charm...
Building a school is a big deal!
Although the villagers cannot say fancy words like "All things are inferior, only reading is superior", the tradition of emphasizing study and examinations that has lasted for thousands of years in this land has affected everyone who grows up in this land.
In the past, everyone always said that studying was useless, which was used to belittle the educated youth. But when it came to their own children, they naturally said something different.
What's more, in the past, few children in the village went to school, because there was only one school in the commune within a dozen miles, and it was far away. If the children went there, they would not be able to help with the work at home. In addition, the tuition was really high, so except for the team leader and other people whose families were really well-off, few people were willing to go there.
Now that the conditions are in place, who would want their child to be blind?
And didn’t the team leader say that since it’s the school in our village, the tuition can be directly deducted with work points!
When they heard that the school would also enroll students from other brigades, before the villagers could object, they heard the team leader add quietly: "The tuition fees collected from them can be used to subsidize the brigade, reduce the tuition fees for our own children, or exchange farm tools and piglets for the brigade."
The team members' expressions changed instantly, and they said enthusiastically: "That couldn't be better! We are all from the same village, and we certainly welcome children from other brigades to come to our school."
"Yes, yes, more, more."
"Yes, yes, reading is good, and children must read."
The captain sneered.
The educated youth were thinking about another thing: to run a school, there must be teachers. After all, they were intellectuals from big cities. Aren’t they more than qualified to be village primary school teachers?
The main reason is that the work in the fields is really tiring! No matter how tiring it is to be a teacher, it’s better than doing farm work under the scorching sun every day, right?
But no one is a fool. They know that being a teacher is a good thing. Don’t those experienced old men and women understand this truth?
fart! The people in the Dongfeng Brigade all have two abacuses under their buttocks! Even when walking, there are crackling sounds!
Someone immediately asked: "Who will be the teacher?"
According to common sense, teachers must of course be those with high education. But if we really go by knowledge, how many young men and women in the village can compare to the educated youth? Such a good job as a teacher cannot be taken up by this group of outsiders!
Several village cadres had discussed this, and the team leader answered straightforwardly: "Then we'll rank the educated youth and villagers based on their test scores, and select three from each."
That's fine.
After all, they just don't want the educated youth from outside to take all the advantages, but if you say that all the teachers should be selected from their own village...the people in their own family know their own business, and they don't know the other party's strengths and weaknesses?
——The main thing is that they are teaching their own children. If they choose a bad teacher, they will be the ones who suffer.
The conference ended quickly, but the impact it brought was like the clouds before the rain, brewing over the Dongfeng Brigade for a long time.
Who doesn’t want their child to be a teacher? On weekdays, you don't have to work hard in the fields like them, but you can still get full work points, and sometimes you will even get subsidies. It's an easy job with a stable income regardless of drought or flood. Even the fools in the village want to get in on the action!
Especially for families with people of suitable age and decent education, there are undercurrents - such as Grandma Sun's family.
"That old man Zhao Sanzhu didn't even tell me about such a big thing!" Grandma Sun cursed, "You are his nephew, shouldn't you help your family?"
By that time, the second son was a soldier and the third was a teacher. She, a widow, raised two sons who no longer had to work in the fields for a living. Who wouldn't say that Sun Xiaohua was awesome?
What a shitty reputation that old woman Liu Fengjuan and her group of people have for catching a thief!
Besides, being a teacher is so great. If anyone dares to tease her in the future, she will ask the third brother to take care of their kids!
What do you call this? The hostage is in our hands!
Just thinking about it made her hair stand up with excitement.
"No, I have to go find him."
As she spoke, she put on her shoes.
Zhao Weimin lowered his head honestly: "But, but I only graduated from elementary school."
"What's wrong with graduating from elementary school?" Grandma Sun put her hands on her waist and stretched her neck. "You have already graduated from elementary school. Isn't it just right for you to teach those elementary school brats?"
"Besides, even if you can't pass the exam, Zhao Sanzhu has been the village party secretary for so many years, can't he give you a hand quietly? At the very least, he should get you the exam questions and papers first!"
Zhao Weimin's eyes moved slightly, but he lowered his head in a submissive manner.
When Granny Sun saw his hopeless and hopeless appearance, she became annoyed and said, "Go away, get out of here."
Wu Jianguo, who was sitting on the crooked kang with his legs crossed, listened to the whole process and said as if he was speaking to a leader: "I will sign up as a villager, and you can show me the test paper when the time comes."
The incident with the poisonous mushrooms also made him realize it - he was poisoned so badly that he almost kicked his legs, but there was no God of Time Travel or anything like that coming out to give him a buff or leave him a message. He was probably abandoned!
Even such a critical moment as his impending death was ignored, so would his ordinary days of pretending to be a good wife be seen?
Pooh!
So be it, whatever happens.
Wu Jianguo is in a bad state, he is letting himself go
Grandma Sun glared, "Bah! Do I owe you this? No, you've become wild now. You don't dare to do your daily chores, but you dare to order me around? Do you have any manners as a daughter-in-law?"
Wu Jianguo's face was impenetrable. He was not ashamed but proud: "That's right, mother-in-law. I really want to live a good life with you."
"Well, mother-in-law, I think you still have your charm. Why don't we sleep together at night and communicate well under the same quilt. I think the misunderstanding between us is quite deep."
He came over with a playful smile.
Mrs. Sun:? ? ?
Mrs. Sun:! ! !
Her hand that was pulling the heel of her shoe slipped and she almost slipped out along with the shoe.
Damn it, how could she forget that this little bitch is a female hooligan! That meal of poisonous mushrooms accidentally exposed her true nature, and now she doesn't even bother to pretend!
"Fuck you! You little bitch, you dared to do that to your mother-in-law! Do you have any shame? Do you have any manners at all?"
Mrs. Sun was so excited that she was spitting and jumping up and down.
Wu Jianguo crossed his legs and said nonchalantly: "I understand, I understand, mother-in-law, you are a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. You always use harsh words to cover up the softness in your heart. Don't worry, mother-in-law, I won't misunderstand you."
As he spoke, he made a heart shape over his chest and winked, "I understand, mother-in-law."
Mrs. Sun, who always led the Dongfeng Brigade in a domineering manner, almost fainted from anger.
"Zhao Weimin!!!" She couldn't explain it to Wu Jianguo, and was afraid that this dog-skin plaster would say something shocking again, so she stomped away and angrily fired at Zhao Weimin, "You should take care of your wife! Look at what she said!"
This cruel little whore doesn't even let an old woman like her go! ! !
Zhao Weimin, who was still immersed in the idea of becoming a teacher, looked up in confusion after being yelled at by Grandma Sun: "Ah? What, mother?"
Wu Jianguo said perfunctorily: "It's nothing. I said I want to have a good relationship with my mother-in-law. My mother is a little shy. That's just how she is. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. But she is my mother-in-law, so I will tolerate her."
"I'm glad you think this way," Zhao Weimin nodded with relief, and turned to look at Grandma Sun, "Mom, I hope you two can get along well. A harmonious family brings prosperity."
Mrs. Sun:? ? ?
What kind of beastly talk is this!
She was so angry that her lips were shaking. She threw her hands and rushed to her room. What kind of test questions or test papers do you need? This ungrateful guy doesn't deserve it! !
