Qin Shuhua looked at her and smiled, "What you said is also what I was thinking. To be honest, Miss Lin, the money I had for my university studies and my studies abroad was sponsored by you. I know your character, and I am very grateful and admire you."
So I returned to China immediately after graduation, thinking that I would follow your example and use my income to help those in need.
I used to be a teacher in other cities and was also transferred to the education bureau. Now I'm back in Beijing as a principal.
As a result, less than a month after taking office, this happened. I feel ashamed and have no face to see you. I only came here today with great courage because I feel that I have let you down.
Lin Wanwan was genuinely surprised this time. "Principal Qin, please don't be so polite. We are about the same age, and I don't deserve your formal address."
Qin Shuhua clasped his hands and bowed to her, "I have always remembered your kindness in helping me back then. I never knew that the person who helped me was only a few years older than me. I am very happy to see you today."
I thought that my modest achievements meant I hadn't let you down, but what happened recently has left me feeling guilty. I will definitely set a good example in the future and promise that nothing like this will ever happen again.
Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "I am relieved to hear the principal say that. What I did is nothing to worry about, and I hope Mr. Qin will not take it to heart."
Qin Shuhua wanted to bow to her again, but Lu Feng stopped him, saying, "Mr. Qin, you don't need to be so polite."
Lin Wanwan nodded, "I do these things not so that the people I help will remember me for the rest of their lives, but just so that my insignificant help can bring a little light to those in need."
After seeing the two off, Lin Wanwan leaned back on the sofa and couldn't help but sigh.
Life is full of surprises.
Lu Feng laughed and said, "Who says otherwise? Come to think of it, he should be one of the first people you sponsored."
Lin Wanwan nodded, "Indeed, judging from that principal, he doesn't seem like a person of bad character. I'll inquire further."
"Is Xiaoming still transferring schools?"
"Ask him, respect his opinion."
During dinner that evening, Lin Wanwan told Lu Ming and Li Qingran about what had happened that day.
"That's how it is. I originally planned to transfer you to the bilingual experimental school, but judging from the principal's expression, I don't want to fake it."
This afternoon, I specifically asked your grandfather to inquire about it. It turns out that the principal had indeed just taken office. He wasn't at the school when the incident happened; he was at the Education Bureau handing over the reins. He is indeed a very good person.
So now I'd like to ask for your opinions.
Li Qingran looked at Lu Ming, who thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's not bother. The teachers at Peking University High School are indeed excellent. You'll have to readjust to a different school after transferring."
"Okay, so what does Qingran mean?"
Li Qingran looked at Lin Wanwan and said, "Godmother, since Lu Ming isn't transferring schools, then I'm not transferring either. They all look down on me, but I'm going to show them that I'm better than them and that I did better on the exams."
Lin Wanwan gave her a thumbs up, "Okay, that's ambitious. In that case, you can go straight to school on Monday. I guess your homeroom teacher has changed too."
With the matter resolved, Lin Wanwan invited the Li family over for dinner over the weekend.
The Li family arrived very early. Zou Cui brought her three children and gifts with her.
"Sister Cui, you're here so early?"
"I wanted to come over as soon as possible to thank you. This whole thing was thanks to you; otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do."
Lin Wanwan pulled her into the house, saying, "Don't be so polite, come in and sit down."
Lin Wanwan had never met Zou Cui's eldest daughter before. She was never home when she visited before, as the house was too small to accommodate everyone. Zou Cui's eldest daughter usually stayed in the factory dormitory.
Zou Cui pointed to her eldest daughter, "Dandan, this is Aunt Lin, quickly greet her."
Li Dan seemed to have a more cheerful and outgoing personality than Qingran, greeting people in a very generous and open manner.
How old is Dandan?
"Aunt Lin, I'm two years older than Qingran, I'm 19 this year."
"Have some snacks, your Uncle Lu prepared these yesterday."
Li Dan didn't stand on ceremony and picked up a piece she liked to eat.
"What have you thought about the thing I asked your mother to talk to you about before?"
Li Dan thought for a moment and said, "Mom told me, but Aunt Lin, I've been out of school for so long, I'm afraid if I go back to school now, I won't be able to keep up and I'll let you down."
Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "What do you mean by letting me down? As long as you don't let yourself down, that's fine. Besides, where there's a will, there's a way. As long as you still want to go back to school, I believe you will work hard. It's just that going back to senior year of high school will definitely be very busy in a year. You will have to work harder than others."
Li Dan smiled happily, "Of course I want to go back to school. Not being able to take the college entrance examination has always been a regret in my heart, but I am the eldest in my family, and I want to help my mother reduce her burden, so I had to drop out of school."
“In that case, go back to school and continue your studies. I will cover all your tuition and living expenses from now on. As long as you can get into university, even if you go on to get a doctorate and study abroad, I will support you.”
The three exchanged a glance, then immediately stood up and bowed to her, saying, "Thank you, Aunt Lin."
Li Qingran said happily, "Thank you, godmother. I will work harder in the future."
"You have to work hard, or you'll end up not being able to pass the exam as well as your sister and watching her go to university."
"Of course not, I will work even harder than before."
"Then I'll wait and see."
Lin Wanwan checked the time. "Why don't you go play in the backyard? Lu Ming and Lu Jing are in the yard. Qingran can find them. You take your sister and brother over to play. I'll have Auntie bring you some fruit later."
