"Lingling, Mingzhu!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu looked up in surprise.
"Mom!" "Godmother!"
They had thought they would have to wait for Fu Wan to pick them up, but seeing their classmates running straight home from the school gate, they were both listless and disappointed.
Unexpectedly, Fu Wan appeared at the school gate so promptly.
The two children were like they'd been injected with adrenaline, running incredibly fast and arriving in front of Fu Wan in the blink of an eye.
"Mommy, are you here to pick us up? And Uncle Xiaobai too!"
Fu Wan reached out and smoothed the children's disheveled hair. "Yes, I'm here to pick you up. Lingling and Mingzhu, you two wait here with Uncle Xiaobai. I have something to discuss with your principal."
"Looking for the principal?" Fu Ling's little eyes darted around. "Let's go too!"
In the eyes of the children, the principal was even more powerful than the teachers. Although they didn't know what Fu Wan wanted to see the principal for, they just wanted to go and join in the fun.
"Comrade Fu, is there something you need?"
As they were talking, a voice suddenly came from inside.
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan looked over. She had just said she was going to the principal's office, but she hadn't expected the principal to be standing not far from her.
Seeing that Fu Wan and the others hadn't left, Principal Feng Aizhen came over to inquire about the situation.
"Comrade Principal, what a coincidence! I happen to have something to discuss with you."
Feng Aizhen thought that Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu had encountered some problems at school, but unexpectedly, Fu Wan handed her an envelope.
Confused, she opened it and, upon seeing the money inside, immediately stuffed it back into Fu Wan's arms, her expression turning serious.
"Comrade Fu, what are you doing?"
"As school staff, we absolutely refuse to accept bribes!"
Seeing that she had misunderstood, Fu Wan hurriedly explained, "This money is a bonus I just received from the logistics department. Principal, I want to donate this money to the school to help girls who can't afford tuition."
After hearing these words, Feng Aizhen felt embarrassed. However, she was mostly incredulous.
"What did you say? Donate it to the school for tuition?"
"It's for the girls' tuition!"
Fu Wan corrected her, and Feng Aizhen nodded hurriedly, "Comrade Fu, you're not joking, are you?"
Fu Wan shook her head, and Bai Qianzhou walked over as well.
"Principal Feng, Comrade Fu is not joking. She had already spoken to Leader Sun about this matter beforehand."
"Leader Sun had other commitments, which is why he couldn't come along. If you don't mind, you can have me as a witness."
Although Feng Aizhen didn't know Fu Wan, she did know Bai Qianzhou.
He is the youngest and most handsome male doctor in the camp hospital. He also comes to treat children who occasionally have fevers.
Bai Qianzhou was always rather distant from people, only showing gentleness towards children.
I didn't know he had a good relationship with this Comrade Fu.
However, Feng Aizhen wasn't a gossipy person; her attention was entirely focused on Fu Wan's suggestion to donate money.
"Comrade Xiao Fu, what was your original intention in donating money?"
Feng Aizhen firmly believes that there are no free lunches, and even if she encounters a donation opportunity, she will still ask for the reason.
Fu Wan could understand this. "I heard from Leader Sun that there are quite a few girls in our school who have difficulty attending school."
Principal, I'm also a woman, and girls always have it harder than boys, so I'd like to donate this money as tuition.
If any girls encounter difficulties attending school in the future, I will continue to donate.
As a woman, Feng Aizhen could naturally empathize with Fu Wan's words.
As a female teacher, she has seen many talented female students drop out of school due to family poverty throughout her career.
"Good, I didn't expect Comrade Xiao Fu to be so insightful. No wonder his two children are so clever and quick-witted."
Upon hearing this, Fu Ling secretly hid behind Fu Wan.
She's not a child; she can understand what the principal is saying.
It was only then that Feng Aizhen remembered that a teacher had mentioned that Fu Ling had been playing around with the children during recess. Fortunately, no children were injured, and the teacher had them apologize to each other, thus letting the matter drop.
"Comrade Fu, I can't just take your money for nothing. How about this, when you come to drop off your child tomorrow, I'll write you the relevant donation receipt."
Fu Wan readily agreed.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Principal. If there's anything you need to tell me, or if I'm not here, you can talk to Comrade Qin Anning."
Upon hearing this, Feng Aizhen joked, "Comrade Anning is probably even busier."
"You can tell me that too."
Bai Qianzhou suddenly spoke up, and Fu Wan did not refute him, since she could indeed contact him through him.
However, for convenience, Fu Wan still left the phone number of Fu Family Village.
After saying goodbye to the principal, Bai Qianzhou escorted them to the door.
Fu Wan thanked him and said, "Comrade Xiaobai, come over for dinner another day."
"must."
Bai Qianzhou agreed, and after watching the two children and Fu Wan get onto the tricycle, he turned and left.
"Mom, there's something important I need to tell you, please don't be angry..."
On the way back, Fu Ling hesitated for a long time before finally speaking.
"What's up?"
As Fu Wan drove, she asked, "These are just kids. What seems like a big deal to them is a small matter to adults."
"I got into a fight at school today..."
Fu Wan slammed on the brakes upon hearing this, "What did you say?"
Fu Ling closed her eyes, her expression one of resignation to death.
"I got into a fight at school today!"
Fu Wan sighed, no wonder she noticed Feng Aizhen's hesitation earlier; it was probably because of this.
Presumably, since he had just donated money, the principal was too embarrassed to mention it.
Why are you fighting?
The kids have only been at school for less than a week, and they've already gotten into a fight.
"Lingling didn't mean it, godmother. It was Zhao Tingting who spoke ill of Lingling first!"
Qin Mingzhu hurriedly defended Fu Ling. Fu Wan knew that the two children had a good relationship, but judging from the current situation, if they were to fight, one of them would be the one to start and the other wouldn't be idle either.
Are you two injured?
Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu shook their heads in unison, "Was Zhao Tingting injured?"
Fu Ling shook her head, a hint of smugness on her face.
"I just tugged at her hair."
Fu Wan was almost laughing in anger; it turned out she had even learned the secrets of fighting among women.
"You two still haven't said why you're fighting."
Fu Ling shrank back, sensing the murderous intent in Fu Wan's tone.
She said that divorced women are not good women, so I beat her up.
"It's that simple?"
Qin Mingzhu nodded in agreement, "It's that simple."
Well, he really deserved to be hit. Fu Wan couldn't help but complain, but then she thought that since the teacher hadn't spoken to her about it, it was probably just ordinary playful fighting between kids.
"You can't bully others at school. You go to school to study and make friends."
Of course, we shouldn't back down when others bully us. We don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of trouble either.
