"Let's talk as we walk."
Aunt Hongmei pulled her aside and whispered, "Girl, your village chief went to a meeting in town yesterday and brought back some news: our village school can continue classes."
"Will the village school remain open?"
Lin Jingyu finally thought of something.
During the period when educated youth went to the countryside, although the college entrance examination was suspended, the village primary school continued to hold classes.
Some educated youth went to primary schools to teach and earn work points.
Compared to doing manual labor, teaching was the best path for the educated youth.
"Aunt, you mean..."
Knowing exactly what was going on, Lin Jingyu continued to play dumb.
"Silly girl, if you continue with elementary school, we'll need to hire a few teachers."
Aunt Hongmei stopped, reached out and tapped her forehead, "Where did your cleverness go? Going to teach at school is much easier than going up the mountain to chop firewood or cut pig feed."
"Thank you for thinking of me, Auntie."
Lin Jingyu chuckled, "But I only graduated from junior high school and didn't go to high school. I don't know if it's okay for me to teach at the school."
"What's wrong with that?"
Aunt Hongmei glared at her irritably, "You're an educated youth, so your village chief uncle's approval is enough."
Furthermore, substitute teachers don't necessarily need to have high academic qualifications; the most important thing is good character. If someone lacks moral character, they're useless, whether they're a high school student or a college student.
"Auntie is right."
Lin Jingyu immediately thought of the people in the educated youth compound.
Anyone can substitute for a class, but that woman Zhao Qiaoyan absolutely cannot.
"Auntie, has Uncle Village Chief decided who will substitute for the teacher?"
"Not that fast."
Aunt Hongmei didn't hide anything from her, "The commune told your village chief uncle to make good preparations. It's almost time for the busy farming season again. Some of the school buildings are leaking and need to be repaired. School should reopen in September of the second half of the year."
"September is great!"
Lin Jingyu nodded with a smile, "We have two months to prepare properly."
