Chapter 30 Going to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative
Finally, Lin Tang left the Qin family with a book.
Feeling it was inconvenient to hold the book, she found a secluded corner and put the book into the system space.
There are two good middle schools in the entire county.
Lin Tang attended Deqing Middle School, which had a relatively high admission rate, and was in a different direction from the county supply and marketing cooperative.
After going to school and then to the supply and marketing cooperative, I was a little rushed.
Lin Tang went to school without much thought.
About twenty minutes later, she stopped at the school gate.
A school plaque with the words "Deqing Middle School" hangs at the entrance.
When you walk in, the first thing you see is a playground, and on the right are rows of classrooms.
The campus buildings have a simplicity unique to the era, and there are lush trees on both sides of the road.
The offices of school leaders and teachers are in the innermost building.
There were bursts of pleasant reading sounds coming from the teaching building, and occasionally a few teachers were walking outside.
Lin Tang just arrived at the office building and met a man.
"Teacher Guo..."
Guo Jianshe turned his head and saw the student he once was proud of.
It seemed like a moment.
That incident appeared in his mind, and the man's pupils suddenly shrank, and he felt as if there was a thunder in his ears.
It made him feel a little dizzy.
"...It's classmate Lin Tang, why are you here?" Guo Jianshe forced a smile.
There was an unconscious stiffness on his face.
"I should have come here earlier." Lin Tang frowned slightly when he saw that the head teacher looked unhappy.
Is that...guilt? Or panic?
Guo Jianshe curled his lips and tried to remain calm while inviting Lin Tang to his office.
"...Haha, it's been a while since we last met, teacher and student. How about coming to my office and sitting down?"
Lin Tang didn't say anything.
Her crystal-clear eyes froze when she met the man's wandering gaze.
She had never thought that the matter would be related to her respected head teacher.
To be honest, I was very disappointed.
"No need, I want to see the principal." Lin Tang said.
Guo Jianshe forced a smile on his face, "The principal went to another province to study and is not in school."
The taut string in my heart loosened slightly.
After he said that, Lin Tang realized that he might not be able to see the principal today.
"Oh, never mind."
As she spoke, she bowed to Guo Jianshe.
"...Thank you, Mr. Guo, for your guidance and care."
Compared to other students, this gratitude came much later.
We had originally agreed that after the notice came out, we would thank our teacher together with our classmates.
It's a pity I missed it.
At this moment, what Lin Tang was thinking in her mind was that no matter how much the truth she wanted to find out was related to the person in front of her.
This expression of gratitude is for the mentor who taught them diligently and answered their questions and resolved their doubts on the journey of life.
Guo Jianshe felt complicated when he looked at Lin Tang, who respected him very much.
It felt like a transparent net was covering my body.
It's getting tighter and tighter.
It made him feel like he was drowning and suffocating.
For a moment, the lesson plan in his hand seemed to turn into a mouth that could eat people, opening its bloody mouth at him and shouting, "You are not worthy"...
Guo Jianshe's fingers trembled and a drop of sweat formed on his forehead.
"...You want to ask..." He started to speak but stopped again.
Lin Tang looked at him quietly, waiting for an answer.
Guo Jianshe hesitated.
He opened his mouth, but no words came out.
He even looked away and stopped looking at her.
Lin Tang's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't ask any questions. He said, "Since the principal is not here, I will go back first. You can go ahead and do your work."
The reason she didn't ask was because she knew that even if she asked, he wouldn't tell her.
Having said that, he left the school without looking back.
Guo Jianshe looked at her back with a gloomy gaze, his fingers almost digging a hole in the lesson plan book.
He felt guilty and ashamed...
Thousands of emotions converge in this moment.
He felt sorry for a child's sincere gratitude.
He doesn't deserve it!
Even though that matter had little to do with him, he... turned a blind eye to it.
Lin Tang came out of the school and looked at the words "Deqing Middle School" at the school gate, and the smile on the corner of his mouth turned slightly cold.
Virtue! Purity!
She always knew that clear water would have no fish, but she never thought that even this place where people were taught and educated would be stained with dirt.
I don’t know who has the ability to cover the sky with one hand and snatch away her achievements quietly.
But no matter what, she will definitely find out the truth.
Corner——
A middle-aged man watched Lin Tang disappear, a light flashing in his eyes.
It's that smart kid.
Things are about to get interesting.
Maybe they can work together...
-
After leaving school, Lin Tang calmed down and went to the supply and marketing cooperative again.
Red brick facade.
The two steel pipe doors are thick and solid, a rare storefront in the county.
The supply and marketing cooperative compound covers a large area and has three buildings, which looks very impressive.
There weren't many people in the supply and marketing cooperative at this moment.
Lin Tang immediately saw the girl in front of the counter who was knitting a sweater quickly.
When they saw someone coming in, the three sales clerks didn't even raise their eyelids.
He is arrogant and cold.
This is not difficult to understand, as supplies were tightly controlled by state-owned units in those days.
The job of a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative is extremely glorious.
Of course, whoever has it should be proud.
"Xiao Yun!" Lin Tang said with a smile.
Fang Xiaoyun stopped what he was doing when he heard the familiar voice.
I looked up and saw that it was my good friend coming.
“…Tangtang?”
As he said that, he put down his sweater and waved to Lin Tang.
"Tangtang, you're back. I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?
You didn't even write a letter. I thought you had forgotten me as your friend!"
I was very sad for several days.
"How could I forget you? Something happened and I haven't had time to contact you." Lin Tang replied with a smile.
Fang Xiaoyun cares a lot about her friend Lin Tang.
After listening to her explanation, the strangeness and loss in my heart suddenly dissipated.
Fang Xiaoyun's eyes were filled with worry, and he asked with concern: "What about now? Is the matter resolved?"
Lin Tang nodded, "It's almost done, don't worry."
"How about you? How's your work? I see you're quite different now than when you were in school. You've got the aura of a worker."
Fang Xiaoyun blushed.
He patted his friend's arm gently, his eyes covered with embarrassment.
She sighed and said, “Don’t embarrass me like that, you are largely responsible for my current situation.
If you hadn’t helped me with my studies, I wouldn’t have even graduated from junior high school, and I wouldn’t be where I am today…”
Fang Xiaoyun felt warm in his heart when he thought of the scene when Tangtang gave him extra lessons every night in the dormitory.
That light, that silhouette, and that gentle voice warmed her heart for a long time.
Lin Tang didn't know how much his kindness helped Fang Xiaoyun.
Fang Xiaoyun does have a city hukou, but it only looks good on the surface.
Her mother is a male chauvinist and doesn't value her as a girl at all.
If her father had not firmly supported her going to school, she would have been married off long ago.
