Chapter 4: The love of parents
Director Xu’s eyes are like a ruler!
Of course, this ruler is only effective in identifying the amount of the red envelope.
As the director of the Academic Affairs Office, Xu Decai has received too many red envelopes to count. He can roughly tell how much money is in the red envelope with just a quick glance.
And judging from the thickness of the red envelope that Shen Qiushan placed on Huazi, it should be an integer.
That’s ten thousand yuan!
Although the two Huazis could not shake Director Xu's character.
But this 10,000 yuan red envelope is another matter!
Shen Yixiao is still a child!
You can't ruin your future because of premature love, right?
Xu Decai calmly stuffed Huazi and the red envelope into the drawer under his desk, and his action made his attitude clear.
"Yixiao's father, the school has repeatedly prohibited students from falling in love prematurely, not to mention that this is a critical period for the college entrance examination sprint."
"Director Xu, my name is Shen Qiushan, you can call me Xiao Shen or Qiushan."
"There is definitely something wrong with Xiaoxiao. I understand how the school handles it, but we have to give the child a chance to take the college entrance examination, otherwise all these years of study will be in vain, don't you agree?"
Shen Qiushan took the initiative to take over the conversation and expressed his attitude.
His implication was very clear. It didn't matter whether he was given a demerit or criticized through a notice, as long as he wasn't fired.
"How about this, I'll give you a serious warning and criticize you at the flag-raising ceremony next Monday."
"But don't worry, Xiao Shen, it won't be included in the file!"
Xu Decai was also taking money to help others get rid of disasters, and the moment he accepted the red envelope, he had already thought about the outcome.
Serious warning and criticism will be announced to the whole school!
It seems very harsh and can serve as a warning to others.
But it was not recorded in the archives behind the scenes, which meant that it had no actual impact on Shen Yixiao.
"All arrangements will be made by Director Xu."
Shen Qiushan was very satisfied with this way of handling the matter and immediately nodded with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll talk to Luo Yao's parents about it."
"The two children must be treated equally!"
Xu Decai waved his hand gently, which naturally meant that Shen Qiushan could leave, and he wanted to talk to Luo Yao's mother again.
However, Shen Qiushan sat on the sofa without moving.
"Xiao Shen, do you have any doubts about the outcome?"
Xu Decai looked at Shen Qiushan again and asked.
"Director Xu, I am very satisfied with the outcome of this handling and have no objections."
"However, I have another matter that I would like to ask Director Xu for help with."
While speaking, Shen Qiushan rubbed his hands subconsciously. He himself found it difficult to talk about this matter.
"Anything else?"
Xu Decai frowned and thought to himself, ten thousand yuan is indeed not that easy to get.
"Tell me about it."
After receiving the red envelopes, Xu Decai had no choice but to listen to what Shen Qiushan wanted. If it was a small matter like changing classes, he would just do it.
"I want to consult about studying at our school," Shen Qiushan said with difficulty.
"Borrowed to read?"
"Senior year?"
When he heard that it was just a matter of borrowing the book, Xu Decai's tense nerves immediately relaxed. For him, this was just a small matter. He just had to pay the money and go through the formal procedures.
Xu Decai, who had relaxed, picked up the Yuxi on the desk, lit one for himself, and then took out another one and handed it to Shen Qiushan: "Want one?"
"Thank you, Director Xu."
Shen Qiushan was not polite, he took the cigarette and took out a lighter from his trouser pocket to light it.
For the next thirty seconds, neither of them spoke, just busying themselves with their cigarettes.
"Are there any relatives' children who want to come and study here?"
As the smoke rose, Xu Decai opened his mouth to ask.
"no."
"It's me!"
While smoking, Shen Qiushan kept thinking about how to start the conversation, but after thinking about it, he realized that there was no room for detours and he had to get straight to the point.
"Cough cough cough"
After hearing Shen Qiushan's answer, Xu Decai, who had just taken a puff of cigarette into his lungs, suddenly started coughing violently.
After a long pause, he threw the half-smoked cigarette into the ashtray and asked incredulously, "Are you saying you want to study at our school?"
"Um!"
Shen Qiushan nodded and said sincerely: "Director Xu, you know the situation of our Xiaoxiao. This brat is about to take the college entrance examination and doesn't know how to work hard, so I want to urge him personally!"
“You mean, the reason you came to borrow the book is to stare at Shen Yixiao, right?”
"Uh-huh!"
Shen Qiushan nodded again: "Grandpa Xiaoxiao has high hopes for him, and he is the only male of the third generation of our Shen family. If he fails to get into college, I'm afraid Grandpa Xiaoxiao can't bear this blow!"
"After thinking about it, I decided to come to school and personally supervise his studies!"
This was the only reasonable reason Shen Qiushan could come up with. After all, if he told Xu Decai that he was actually going to take the college entrance examination, the other party would definitely think he was crazy.
"Xiao Shen, I understand your feelings!"
"But there is no precedent for this in school. And when it comes to studying, I don't think it will be helpful if you just watch over the child. Some children are just not good at studying, and it won't help no matter how much you watch over them."
"Of course, I'm not saying that Shen Yixiao is not good at studying. This kid just likes to play, but he's actually quite smart."
Xu Decai's brows were twisted into knots. He had seen many parents who attached great importance to their children's studies, but this was the first time he had seen one to this extent.
This is truly “The love of parents in the world is pitiful”!
"Director Xu, I know this is difficult for you."
"But you've seen Shen Yixiao's situation. Others are working hard to prepare for the college entrance examination, but he's putting all his energy into dating. If no one is watching over him, I'm really afraid that he'll become a grandfather next year!"
"Director Xu, parents all over the world are so pitiful!"
Shen Qiushan's words were extremely sincere, but that was not the point. The point was that while he was speaking he took out a red envelope and handed it to Xu Decai.
This red envelope is as thick as the previous one.
Obviously, this is a big challenge to Director Xu's character.
Xu Decai looked at the red envelope in front of him, then looked at Shen Qiushan who looked sincere, and said in embarrassment: "Xiao Shen, I completely understand your feelings."
"But this is indeed a difficult matter, and even if I agree, Principal Wang may not agree. After all, this kind of thing is unheard of."
Shen Qiushan took out another red envelope and placed it next to the previous one: "Director Xu, I'm not familiar with Principal Wang. Please help me. I will pay for the tuition as usual."
"Just think of it as the school accepting a borrowed student, except that this student is a little older!"
"this"
Xu Decai looked at the two red envelopes in front of him, and then thought about the red envelope in the drawer. There were a total of 30,000 yuan. He would give 10,000 yuan to Principal Wang and he could keep 20,000 yuan.
Although Xu Decai, as the director of the Academic Affairs Office, lives a well-off life, it is still very attractive for him to get 20,000 yuan just by talking!
"Alas, how pitiful are the parents in the world!"
Xu Decai sighed, then waved his hand and stuffed the two red envelopes into the drawer: "Xiao Shen, I can't guarantee this. After all, there is no precedent. If it doesn't work out, I will return what I shouldn't have taken."
