The principal's surname is Zhang, and his name is Zhang Xiuming.
He always smiles at everyone and asks, "Are you the only ones in the office?"
Zhou Huai stood up immediately with a smile on his face: "Principal, everyone else has classes, go to class."
Zhang Xiuming waved his hand: "I'm fine too, don't worry."
"It's cold now. You've been teaching for a while now. I'm going to organize an exam. For each grade, your teachers will work together to create a test paper. I'll go to the commune's high school to get some styluses and wax paper for you. Once the mimeograph is ready, we'll divide the exam among you."
As he said that, he looked at Shen Wu and said, “I’ll give you the fifth and fourth grade exam papers.”
It was only natural to take an exam. As for what the stylus and wax paper were, mimeographing should be similar to printing or photocopying in later generations. Although she didn't understand, Chen Wu didn't plan to ask. She could just learn from others when the time came.
Shen Wu replied immediately: "Okay."
"I have strong abilities and heavy tasks. If I perform well, I will apply for rewards from the Education Bureau."
Since the principal has said so much, the teachers in the office are naturally grateful.
Chen Wu closed the book she was reading and began to look through the textbook and lesson plan, thinking about how to set the questions.
It's better for Chen Wu, a math teacher, because she doesn't need to write too many words when giving questions. Lin Xin teaches Chinese to third and fourth graders, and some words need to be written in long paragraphs.
"After we finish this paper, we need to carve it again with a stylus. I heard from my teacher when I was in school that it is very difficult to carve it."
Chen Wu was once again thankful that she taught mathematics, and it was all elementary school mathematics, which was not that difficult.
When Chen Wu returns home.
Xu Yin just woke up when Shen Wu took the fish she bought yesterday out of the basin. It was already half dead, so Shen Wu simply let it die completely.
Prepare to kill the fish yourself.
Before the stomach was even opened, Shen Wu's stomach was churning and she was retching repeatedly.
"Why does this fish smell so fishy?"
Xu Yin sniffed it and said, "A little bit, but not enough to make you vomit, right?"
"You guide, and I'll kill."
Although Xu Yin didn't know how to kill a fish, she was able to do it quite well according to Shen Wu's description. She took out the internal organs and scraped off the scales with scissors.
Shen Wu had already washed her hands with soap.
I still feel like everything is fishy, and my stomach is churning and uncomfortable.
Xu Yin saw that she looked unhappy and said, "Why don't you just not eat fish today and try something else."
"It's already been cleaned up, so you might as well eat it. It won't taste very good once it's burned."
Xu Yin couldn't persuade her, so she carried the fish into the kitchen.
The two entered the kitchen. Chen Wu felt that the fish was fishy, so she didn't plan to make soup. She simply prepared to braise it. She first took the rice she bought yesterday and steamed a pot of rice. She also washed the young ginseng and steamed it, and prepared it into red ginseng to boil water for drinking on weekdays.
While marinating the fish pieces with salt to remove the fishy smell.
Even so, Chen Wu didn't feel very comfortable and dry-heaved from time to time. Xu Yin burned the firewood, and her movements slowed down.
He looked up at Chen Wu.
I just happened to see her retching uncomfortably.
Meeting Xu Yin's gaze, Shen Wu said, "Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well. I only have one class this afternoon, so I need to catch up on some sleep at home."
Xu Yin seemed to be lost in thought.
"You and that cold-faced guy, what about your contraception situation?"
Chen Wu's eyes widened: "Do you suspect I'm pregnant?"
"You really look a bit like me."
Shen Wu frowned: "No way."
"Lu Xuan and I avoided each other pretty well, right..." Shen Wu said it uncertainly.
Shaking his head: "Forget it, don't think about it anymore. I'll go to the hospital for a checkup and I'll know when I have time."
"If I get pregnant, I hope to give birth to a little girl, but she doesn't want to look as cold as Lu Xuan."
Chen Wu fantasized and laughed as she thought about it.
Xu Yin frowned, not knowing if she was being overly optimistic or what. "Red ginseng is warming and nourishing, but it also invigorates the blood circulation. Don't eat it yet."
"Then I'll steam and dry it, slice it, and make some water for you to drink."
Seeing Xu Yin still with a cold face, she said, "Okay, don't be afraid. We will deal with any problem we encounter. Since it has come to this, we should just live each day to the fullest."
Xu Yin poked her.
Chen Wu smiled and said, "What if you're not pregnant? It's just that you stayed up too late and you're not feeling well. This is a common thing. Don't worry, just eat fish."
Xu Yin admired her good attitude.
The braised fish pieces were ready, but Shen Wu couldn't finish them all, so she simply gave most of them to Xu Yin, left a few pieces for Lu Xuan, and cooked a new dish for herself.
While eating.
When Lu Xuan was eating, he found that she only ate vegetarian dishes, so he picked up some meat for her. Shen Wu dodged the bowl and shook her head: "I don't want to eat it. It was already disgusting when it was cooked."
"uncomfortable?"
I've never heard her say that cooking fish is disgusting.
Chen Wu shook her head: "Maybe I didn't sleep well."
"Maybe she's pregnant. I think we didn't do that last time because my period was just over." Before and after her period, she was a little anxious, so she pulled someone...
Lu Xuan had just told her to have a good rest at home in the afternoon, but when she heard the next sentence, she almost dropped the chopsticks in her hand. There was some surprise and some happiness in her eyes.
Just a moment.
Chen Wu also caught it. Perhaps, Lu Xuan didn't really want a child so badly. What did he mean by dying on her? Was it just words to comfort her?
"Is this true?"
Chen Wu shook her head: "I don't know yet, don't be too happy, maybe you are sick from staying up late."
"It doesn't matter whether she has one or not. If she does, I'll make more money and we can support her. If she doesn't, that's perfect." He still hasn't forgotten the blood and water his sister-in-law brought out when she gave birth.
Chen Wu also had the same idea. If she had one, she would keep it. If she didn’t have one, it would be fine.
After dinner, she tidied herself up briefly, changed into the cotton clothes she usually wore to sleep, and took a nap.
Chen Wu fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow. But Lu Xuan, who hadn't slept for long last night, couldn't fall asleep at all. He stared at the little face of the woman next to him and her curled eyelashes.
Maybe she has her own child?
Lu Xuan had a feeling that it wasn't quite real...
I closed my eyes and prepared to sleep, and the sight of my sister-in-law giving birth with basins of blood pouring out was the same.
Lu Xuan couldn't fall asleep. He got up to count the money in the house and packed up the things in the house to make it easier to move to the new house.
Lu Xuan was in a very conflicted mood. Chen Wu slept until four o'clock without even having a dream. She got up just before her last class, packed up, and hurried to school.
Lin Xin also had a class in the last period. When she saw Chen Wu, she followed her out of the office, carrying her books. She leaned close to Chen Wu and whispered in a low voice, "I came early today and saw Long Zhiqing talking to Zhou Zhiqing."
"Maybe it's a reunion, or maybe something else. Anyway, you should be more careful. Before you and I knew each other, when we were close, she said some unkind things about you—"
