Chapter 236 Li Jiajia has a situation
After the morning meeting, Xia Mi took her resignation letter to Principal Wang before class started.
Xia Mi handed it over with both hands, "Principal, this is my resignation letter."
Principal Wang looked at the resignation letter in her hand in surprise. After hesitating for a few seconds, he decided to take it.
Principal Wang opened the resignation letter and after reading it, he assumed that the personal reason was pregnancy, so he put the letter down.
"Teacher Xia, are you resigning because of your pregnancy? If so, the school can rent a room for you to use as a dormitory so that you don't have to go back and forth so hard."
Although Xia Mi is not a professional, she has always been conscientious, never makes mistakes in her work, and is dedicated to her students. Just in terms of not making mistakes, she is already better than many people.
The quality of her teaching is not inferior to that of other teachers. It can be said that he is now fully confident in leaving the lower grade students to her.
"You don't have to be embarrassed. Teachers can apply for dormitories. If you need one, the school can apply for one for you. It just so happens that the dormitories are ready for the new teachers coming this time."
Principal Wang took into consideration that Xia Mi might be pregnant and that it might be inconvenient for her to live with others, and said, "Considering your special circumstances, the school can also allow you to live in a separate room."
Xia Mi gritted her teeth and shook her head.
"Principal, the reason I resigned was not because of my pregnancy, but for other reasons."
Xia Mi didn't want to reveal that she was going into the adult entertainment industry, fearing that it would lead to another round of lecturing.
Principal Wang realized that it was not because of pregnancy, but other reasons. She did not say what they were, nor did she write them in her resignation letter.
He was not the kind of person who would dig deep to get to the bottom of things. He guessed that Xia Mi didn't want to say it, so he simply stopped asking and just felt regretful in his heart.
"Okay, since you've made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you to stay. Can I postpone your departure for a week? I'd like you to guide the new teacher."
Xia Mi agreed, "Well, there is one more thing. I would like to ask the principal if you could not tell everyone that I am leaving for the time being."

She wrote that it would be released in half a month, and now it has to be postponed for another week, which means it will be almost a month.
Xia Mi was worried that someone would persuade her to stay or inquire about her other private matters during this month.
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Principal Wang promised Xia Mi.
Seeing Xia Mi was about to leave, Principal Wang called her back, "Teacher Xia, is this about the salary?"
"No, it has nothing to do with salary or school. It just conflicts with my personal plans."
After hearing this, Principal Wang finally understood that Xia Mi wanted to change careers.
After everyone left, he took off his glasses, leaned back in his chair and sighed, then picked up Xia Mi's resignation letter. It seemed that Teacher Xia had planned this a long time ago and was just waiting for the new teacher to arrive before submitting his resignation.
Xia Mi came out of the office. Qiao Jing turned down the volume of the radio and leaned over to her.
"Sister Xia Mi, what did the principal say to you?"
Xia Mi had thought of an excuse long ago, "He told me about the new teacher and asked me to lead the team and be in charge of grades one, two and three with me."
This answer was within everyone's expectations.
Qiao Jing looked at the empty office and sighed, "We're finally getting some new people in the office. Ever since Sister Fang and Zhichao moved out, there are only four of us left in the office. I don't know what's wrong with Gao Zhilei; he hasn't come in the past two days."
Xia Mi looked at the empty seat opposite and felt strange.
The last time the Gao and Jiang families had such a big incident, Gao Zhilei never asked for leave, but now he even asked for three days off on ordinary days.
"Sister Xia Mi, do you know the reason?"
All the teachers knew that Gao Zhilei had married Captain Jiang’s daughter and was now living in the old house.
Xia Mi hasn't been to the Jiang family much since the last time, so naturally she doesn't know what's going on.
"I don't know. Captain Jiang and his wife have moved to the city and only come back to the island occasionally. I can't disturb their happy life."
Qiao Jing nodded and agreed.
"That's true." Qiao Jing didn't ask any more questions.

There are five new teachers in the school this time, three girls and two boys. Three of them are assigned to the junior high school and the remaining two are assigned to the elementary school.
The welcome ceremony was more grand than last time.
There is no class today, so I specially took a day off to come and greet you, so that it is convenient for us to have lunch together.
The meat and vegetables were prepared a day in advance. There were many people, so a lot of ingredients were prepared. The new teachers were getting familiar with the school, and Xia Mi was helping in the kitchen. Dealing with people was not her forte.
Zhou Fang was still the head chef, Xia Mi helped to light the fire, Qiao Jing prepared the dishes, and Liang Qisheng assisted and did whatever he was told to do.
"By the way, have you heard? A store in Qingcheng was robbed and lost 10,000 yuan!"
Qiao Jing suddenly shared loudly that this was what she heard on the radio today.
When Zhou Fang heard the news, she even forgot to stir-fry the dishes. "What kind of store can sell goods worth ten thousand yuan?"
"Yeah, what kind of store has so many things?"
"It seems he's an appliance repair shop, specializing in things like radios and refrigerators. He also does a parts wholesale business. His warehouse was robbed."
Zhou Fang was shocked after hearing this. "They stole a millionaire's fortune."
"If I were the boss, I'd probably be lying at home crying right now, wishing I could pick up a knife and kill those thieves. They're so brazen, they could steal tons of stuff."
Qiao Jing became more and more worried as he spoke. "No, next time I have a holiday, I have to go back and ask my parents to hide all the valuables."
"Are you worried about someone stealing your pots and pans?" Liang Qisheng came in carrying firewood.
He had just heard the discussion inside from outside.
Qiao Jing glared at Liang Qisheng, knowing he was teasing him. "My family isn't as poor as you think. We even have a TV. My dad is planning to ask someone to get a ticket for a refrigerator soon, so we can have a refrigerator!"
Liang Qisheng put the firewood next to Xia Mi.
"Then you'd better lock up the TV and refrigerator with chains, just like you lock your bicycle, otherwise it won't be safe."
Qiao Jing couldn't bear it any longer, and took advantage of the water still on his hands to splash it towards Liang Qisheng.
Liang Qisheng dodged sideways and said, "I'm giving you a method. Televisions and refrigerators are not cheap. If they are stolen, your uncle and aunt's annual salary will be gone."
"unnecessary."
What she meant by hiding was hiding the money and valuable jewelry.
Thieves can afford to drive big trucks, so how could they still be interested in the small amount of money she has?
"But then again, why would the thieves steal the parts? They don't have any channels to sell these things. And if they sell them, the police will notice and they will be easily arrested. What's the point of stealing these things?"
Xia Mi, who had been quietly burning the fire, spoke up and expressed her guess.
"Having a car makes it easier to sell stolen goods. I can take them to other places and sell them. If I get them for free, I'll make a profit no matter how much I sell them for."
After hearing this, several people felt that what Xia Mi said was true. Why not use a car to sell it in another province? Who would know that it was stolen from here?
The parts are small and there is no way to have any markings on them. They are exactly the same as those on the market.
Besides, that group of people also stole the gas in the car, so now I only have to pay for the fare once, and the rest is all profit.

Considering that the number of teachers was increasing, the principal spent a huge amount of money to have a carpenter make seven long tables, which were similar in style to those in the school cafeteria, about three meters long and could seat twelve people.
Originally, students and teachers heated up their own meals.
The school provides a special stove, and you can also bring rice and vegetables. The school cook will help you make a big pot of rice.
Although there are not enough seats, some students can sit down and eat.
At noon, Xia Mi and the others ate at the new long table.
If you want to talk about the best way to get closer to people and get to know them quickly, eating and chatting together is one of them.
The meal took two hours to finish.
When Xia Mi returned home, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. When Black Panther heard the noise, his drooping ears instantly stood up, and he stood up and ran towards her.
"Black Panther." She reached out and moved the dog's head.
If she goes to Qingcheng in the future, it would be inconvenient to bring the black panther, which is so big, and it would not be free for it.
Xia Mi sat on a small stool, looking at the black panther's brown pupils, feeling reluctant.
Black Panther had never seen Xia Mi like this before. He retracted his tongue, which was originally sticking out, and looked at Xia Mi with a serious look.
"What's wrong? Did you know I'm leaving?"
The black panther didn't understand, and suddenly tilted his head, then stuck out his tongue and licked her palm, trying to leave more scent on Xia Mi's body.
Xia Mi looked at it quietly, enjoying a moment of comfort.
Before sunset, Shi Daqiang came to deliver a letter, "Sister-in-law, I'm here to deliver a letter to you."
When Shi Daqiang came, Xia Mi was processing the vegetables in the yard.
When I went back home during the Chinese New Year, my aunt saw that her yard was empty, so she planted a lot of vegetables. Now they are all ripe, but a lot of weeds have grown too.
"My hands are dirty, can you help me put them on the table?" Xia Mi looked at the grass that was still half-pulled and prepared to work on it for a while longer.
Shi Daqiang agreed, went into the house, and came out quickly.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you." Seeing Xia Mi working, Shi Daqiang rolled up his sleeves and strode into the vegetable garden. "When I have time, I'll call Erqiao to come and help you with these things."
If someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
Although she had given Shi Daqiang many benefits in the past, he was so flattering that Xia Mi could tell that he had something to ask of her as long as she was not blind.
Xia Mi nodded, but did not expose him. Instead, she waited for him to speak, to see how long he could hold it in.
"Okay, then I won't be polite in the future."
"Why be so polite to us?" Shi Daqiang squatted on the ground pulling weeds, thinking in his mind how to ask Xia Mi for help.
With Shi Daqiang's participation, the weeding progressed quickly. In half an hour, all the weeds in the vegetable field had been cleared.
Xia Mi raised her eyebrows and observed Shi Daqiang out of the corner of her eye while washing her hands.
I didn't expect this guy to be able to hold it in for so long. Since he is not in a hurry, then she won't be in a hurry either.
"Stay for dinner tonight. I bought some shrimp and beef. I'll make beef jerky when I run out of food."
"No, no, there's no need for dinner." Shi Daqiang waited until Xia Mi finished washing her hands before he went over to her. He smiled flatteringly and said, "Sister-in-law, I have something I want to ask you for help with."
Xia Mi wiped the water off her hands and said, "Tell me what you want to do for me first."
Shi Daqiang washed his hands, shook them off carelessly, wiped his hands on his pants, and carefully took out a package and a letter from his pocket.
"You must be mistaken. This isn't the post office. You should send things to your unit."
Shi Daqiang quickly shook his head and denied it, "No, no, I want my sister-in-law to pass this thing on to me."
Xia Mi smelled the scent of love and said "oh", deliberately lengthening the ending sound.
Since she used the word "transfer", it means that she knows this person. First, excluding the teachers in the school, the only ones left are people in the courtyard.
She doesn't have many friends, so she can figure out who this thing is for with just a little thought.
"Who is it for?" Xia Mi asked knowingly, pretending to be curious.
Shi Daqiang stammered for a long time without saying anything, his face flushed, and he was so nervous that he began to stutter.
"Li Jiajia, sister-in-law, can you please help me pass this thing to Li Jiajia?" Shi Daqiang took the step he had in mind. "I said something wrong some time ago and made her angry. Sister-in-law, can I trouble you with one more thing?"
Xia Mi chuckled, "Why didn't you say at the beginning that it was a troublesome matter?"
Shi Daqiang scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "I, I haven't thought it through."
What Xia Mi didn't expect was that this pair of bickering lovers would actually end up together.
"Are you guys dating?" Xia Mi asked straight to the point.
Shi Daqiang shook his head like a rattle, "No, we are not together yet, sister-in-law, please don't misunderstand."
One of them hasn't even been together yet. This is a lot of information. Xia Mi nodded, not quite understanding. "I understand. Does that mean you are still pursuing Jia Jia?"
Shi Daqiang did not refute and was too shy to look Xia Mi in the eye.
Xia Mi took the thing and could vaguely feel what was inside the bag. It should be a skin care product like vanishing cream. The texture of the tin can was very special.
"You've made someone unhappy, why don't you deliver it yourself?"
"Sister-in-law, you know Li Jiajia's temper. If I send it to her in person, she might criticize me. I'm a grown man after all. It's nothing for her to point her finger at me and scold me."
The saying "hard words spoken softly" is embodied in Shi Daqiang.
"Okay, I'll deliver it tomorrow. I don't know what shift Jia Jia is working today."
"She's on the day shift and goes home at 4:30 in the afternoon. Sister-in-law, can you go after dinner? Otherwise, I'm afraid she will still be angry." Shi Daqiang begged Xia Mi almost in a requesting tone.
Xia Mi smiled, took the letter and nodded in agreement, "Okay, since you know so much about it, I'll go there for you."
"But let me make this clear first. You can't keep coming to me when you have a fight. I'm not a bridge for communication, nor am I a lubricant for your emotions. You can come to me if it's appropriate."
Xia Mi knew Li Jiajia's temper and was worried that if she agreed this time, the two would keep coming to her for mediation in the future.
She's not a master of emotional mediation.
Besides, when it comes to matters of the heart, each has his or her own opinion, and it is the most difficult to be the judge.
Shi Daqiang assured Xia Mi, "Don't worry, three times is the limit. I won't bother my sister-in-law again."
Seeing that Xia Mi accepted the things and agreed to help, Shi Daqiang left happily.
Xia Mi was curious, when did the two of them get together?
Because of the plot development, the economic opening was slightly advanced~
The specific business venture was after 1984.
