Chapter 15 Chapter 15
◎She has to decide this too?!◎
Ten minutes into the broadcast, the kindergarten's live broadcast room was filled with all kinds of comments.
Some come simply to see the looks, some wait to find evidence of a show, and some come simply for the popularity.
Lian Jiu knew nothing about this. Live streaming was one thing, but the main thing was still class.
This is the first class in the senior class, and we need to start cultivating the children's ability to adapt to the first grade in the future. In the past, the little monsters did not have the conditions to read and write, and all their cognition of the outside world was almost zero. Now Lian Jiu needs to make up for their shortcomings in this area.
Ten children sat together. Lian Jiu had prepared many large pictures. "Today we're going to learn some basic traffic rules."
She first took out a lot of photos of roads: "Children, you all know roads, right? These are pictures of roads."
The little fox raised his hand: "Teacher Jiujiu, what are those things running around?"
The other children had never seen it before and stared at it curiously.
Lian Jiu was prepared for this and pulled out a bunch of pictures. "This is a means of transportation. Call a taxi. If someone wants to go somewhere far away, they can drive there. However, only those who are old enough and qualified to drive can drive."
"Just like our little turtle, if we want to go to a very far mountain, it will take a long time to walk, right? So how can we usually get there?"
The big-headed turtle raised his hand tepidly: "Bird, bird, fly!"
Lian Jiu nodded. "Yes, but if there were a road leading up the mountain, the little turtle wouldn't have to fly. It could just take a car to the top quickly. That's transportation, and this method is called transportation."
The little monsters tried hard to understand, and realized that this was the way people walked.
Lian Jiu then showed a picture of many cars on the road. "But what do you think will happen if many cars don't obey the rules?"
Kindergarten classes are designed to engage all children, so they're mostly interactive. The little monsters were very cooperative, raising their hands one after another. Lian Jiu nodded at the deer monster, who replied, "You'll bump into things! Just like when we run in the mountains, we'll bump into things."
"That's right!" Lian Jiu clapped his hands. "You'll get bumped and hurt, right?"
"yes!"
"And it's not just people in cars and drivers who might be hurt. People crossing the road could also be harmed." Lian Jiu showed a picture of a traffic light. "That's why we have traffic rules. Kids, do you know what colors these are?"
Many animals are color-blind, but this problem basically does not exist after they transform into humans, but they do need a little guidance.
What made Lian Jiu very happy was that the little monsters in the classroom were sensible and cooperated very well, but the live broadcast room was full of question marks.
[This kid in the senior class is at least six years old, and he still doesn't know the road, cars, or traffic lights? How funny!]
To be honest, although the children are very cute, their delicate skin and tender flesh show that they have not experienced any hardship and do not look like children who grew up in the mountains.
Finally, I can see the classrooms. Is this a school made of wood and earth? The people and the environment don't match at all.
Even though you say you don't have money, don't you still make these furry ears and tails for the children? And the quality is so good, it must be expensive. Can you make a more complete show? At least make the children's clothes look better.
This livestream is really weird. If you want to say it's bad for the kids, they're actually taking the class seriously. But if you want to say it's good, a lot of the details don't match up.
【Pretending to be poor? 】
"Can you guys be more reasonable? What if the mountains and rivers here can actually support people? The government has even come out and guaranteed that this is a real school. What else do you want?"
Yu Chongming was so anxious when she saw all these comments, but she couldn't interrupt the principal's class now.
How come after seeing the real live broadcast, not only did people not change their statements, but they became even more outrageous?
She held her phone and quietly explained to the commentator: "Our kindergarten is in very poor condition and the children don't have the opportunity to go out, so many things outside need to be taught by the principal himself."
[Is that the person holding the phone talking? The voice sounds like singing.]
"Then tell me, why do these children look so young? Like they've never experienced hardship?"
[Yeah, and they even give kids these fancy things.]
Yu Chongming didn't know how to explain it. Fortunately, the first class was over at this time, and the caregiver had to feed the children water and take them to the toilet.
Without the teacher's specific instructions, the little monsters each picked up their own small bowls for drinking water and lined up.
Lian Jiu held the last slow-moving big-headed turtle and stood at the back of the team.
The big-headed turtle is just like his name. His parents are not well educated, so they named him Fang Manman. There were no kindergartens in the past, so he has been growing up freely, and no monsters have taught him how to live a normal life, so until now Fang Manman does everything slowly.
Lian Jiu therefore paid more attention to him.
Fang slowly held his bowl, looked up at the teacher and said, "Teacher Jiujiu, Guigui walked a little faster today."
"Really?" Lian Jiu smiled, "Teacher saw it. You came two minutes faster today than yesterday. That's great."
Fang slowly asked, "How long is two minutes?"
"Hmm..." Lian Jiu thought for a moment, "It's just the time it takes to make a bowl of rice."
Zizi calculated the time based on his eating speed and found it was quite short: "Then I will eat an earlier bowl of rice tomorrow and walk on my own without my mother carrying me."
The big-headed turtle family lives in a lake not far from the school. They are neighbors with the little carp spirit, so they are very close. However, even this distance requires a long walk for the baby big-headed turtles.
Especially when he learned that he was going to be a senior student, he demanded even more to go on his own.
"If you walk slowly with your own legs, you'll be much faster." Lian Jiu carried him for two steps, "Just like this, right?"
"Hmm!" Fang shook his head slowly, "Today, Turtle didn't crawl, he walked!"
"That's amazing." Lian Jiu corrected him, "Man Man has a name, right? Don't call him Turtle anymore."
[Wait, there are students with special needs in kindergarten? Can't they walk?]
[It seems so. I've noticed this kid a long time ago. He's always a few steps behind in everything he does, which makes me anxious.]
[No wonder Lian Jiu teacher went to hug him as soon as he finished.]
[I really need to correct the habit of calling myself "turtle," otherwise I might get bullied by other kids in the future.]
After Fang finished drinking the water slowly, the caregiver took him to the toilet.
Lian Jiu also had some free time to look at the barrage.
Yu Chongming made a bitter face and handed over the phone worriedly.
[Come on, come on, let me have a private chat with the beautiful teacher. ]
Does your kindergarten's enrollment plan this year include babies aged 240 months?
[Please explain to me, Director, why there are so many doubts.]
Although he didn't see the barrage before, Lian Jiu had an idea of what was going on because of the constant barrage.
She laughed: "There is no explanation. Everything you see is very real."
"Funding for the kindergarten was previously unavailable, so the current kindergarten building was built with money pooled by the only elderly people with salaries in the mountains, along with the residents themselves. The children are poorly dressed because their families don't have much money and are practically homeless. Most parents have no source of income, not even mobile phones."
The barrage gradually quieted down.
Lian Jiu's tone was neither humble nor arrogant. Although his voice was gentle, it was firm, which made people want to listen carefully.
Lian Jiu continued, "The things the children wear on their heads are all handmade by their parents. This is a specialty of our mountain area. Every child's is unique. I can let them put it away, but I don't want to deprive them of their freedom."
[It seems so. Whether it's a video or a live broadcast, the ears of the children I've seen are different.]
Is there really such poverty now?
Lian Jiu saw this comment and sighed softly, "Before coming to this school, I didn't even know there was such a place, but it does exist. To be honest, I came here because I was greedy for the salary. Later I found out that my salary was also collected by several elders here with their own wages."
"Then why do you still want to stay here? Isn't it dangerous for a girl to be in the mountains?"
[Yes, and she's so pretty.]
Lian Jiu replied seriously, "If I really leave, I don't know how many more years these kids will stay here. Just like you said, they're dressed in rags and don't even know what a car is even when they're grown up."
The barrage of comments disappeared quietly again.
After a long while, someone finally responded, "If you're not teaching your students properly, why do you keep doing these fancy live streams?"
As soon as this post was released, many people raised questions.
After all, in the eyes of netizens today, those who create such accounts must have a team and do so in order to become famous.
Lian Jiu said without hesitation: "For money."
【???】
【Do you have to be so honest? 】
【You're really putting me off when you say that. 】
Even the other big monsters who had been staying in the classroom were a little surprised by the principal's directness.
Si Lan raised her eyebrows, but she didn't see any regret from Lian Jiu about what she said. She had already planned to tell others about this.
Lian Jiu took the phone from Yu Chongming, looked around the classroom, walked to the window, checked to see if there were any monsters outside, and then slowly scanned the camera outside. This was the first time that netizens had seen the entire kindergarten and the surrounding scenery so completely.
It was actually in the mountains, and deep in the mountains at that!
【Although, the scenery is really beautiful. 】
This is true nature, without any impurities. It's rare to see such a comfortable place.
After a quick walk around, Lian Jiu focused on the classroom to prevent any uncontrollable demons from coming out. He said, "As you can see, we are very poor. Even if we get the funding, we are still in urgent need of money."
"The reason I created this account in the first place was to find a way to give my children more living expenses and let them eat better," Lian Jiu said truthfully. "But the process of creating a video account was too long, and we couldn't accept advertisements that deceived consumers with three-no products, so we chose live streaming."
I have six points to make…
[Damn, how come I'm not really angry after hearing this?]
[This is just a blatant act of taking advantage of others. You talk like a flower, but you're still just an internet beggar. I'm unfollowing you.]
After Lian Jiu said that he did live streaming for money, many people were influenced by the comments and started to unfollow him.
Lian Jiu didn't care too much about this. She didn't force others to give her money, and it was up to her to stay or leave.
"All the explanations are here," she said gently. "It's up to you whether you believe it or not, because we have no other reasons or excuses. If anyone feels that we are not treating the children well, please feel free to supervise us in our live broadcast room at any time."
After that, the children came back one after another. They didn’t look at the barrage for a long time, but continued to attend classes with the teachers.
Although many people unfollowed, there were still many people staying in the live broadcast room.
One reason is that just looking at her face, not only the children, but also Teacher Lian Jiu is really handsome, more handsome than any star.
The second reason is that the fact that Lian Jiu said he needed money was obvious to everyone. He did not pretend to deceive you, but spoke with facts. He did not ask you to send gifts quickly, but just stated this purpose.
Isn’t this much more honest than some anchors?
And there is no routine!
So even though no one gave them gifts, they still stayed.
After the second class, the children will start preparing for lunch.
Netizens have seen these children eating in the videos posted before. They ate so voraciously as if they had not eaten for several lifetimes, so many people said it was a show.
Now I can finally observe how the children eat and see if they have any reactions after eating.
The children lined up to wash their hands, then sat obediently in their seats, staring at the door expectantly.
In fact, Lian Jiu was a little nervous, because every time it was time to eat, he could not control his little monsters the most. He didn't know how everyone would perform today.
Soon, the food was served.
The canteen chef always listens to the director and learns new dishes every day. Recently, with the influx of funds, some vegetables are often brought in, so the dishes are getting better and better.
Sure enough, as soon as the food was brought in, the little monsters' tails and ears began to wiggle.
[Oh my god, their little ears can actually move! ]
[Is there some kind of mechanism? This is so cute.]
[It's a pity that it's handmade. I really want to buy one for my brother. As long as he wears it, I think I can tolerate him no matter how naughty he is.]
At this time, Lian Jiu walked over to Si Lan, who was also staring at the food, and gently nudged him with his hand: "If you can't control the situation later, it will depend on you."
Si Lan nodded, but his eyes remained motionless: "What are you eating today?"
“…”
Lian Jiu tugged at his clothes.
Si Lan sighed softly: "It'll be fine."
As soon as he finished speaking, the air in the room seemed to cool down a bit. The little monsters looked up and looked around in confusion. They didn't know why, but they always felt that their physical condition was very stable today, at least they didn't want to deform easily.
And after the teacher taught them how to use a spoon, they found that it was more convenient to eat in human form. They could use the spoon while pouring the food, which greatly increased the speed!
Today's meal at kindergarten was another unusually fast day.
The commentators were frightened by the children's actions. They really didn't hesitate at all! If the bowl wasn't inedible, they would have eaten it.
I finally understand what that kid just said about the time it takes to make a bowl of rice.
[Manman is slow in talking and doing things, but he eats pretty fast, hahaha.]
[Can I really digest it if I eat this way? Will it harm my body?]
Just now you said that spoiled children are good for their delicate skin and flesh, and now you're saying it's bad for their health. You've said everything.
[Yes, even if it was child abuse, the child wouldn't have grown up so well!]
This kindergarten is really weird.
[With this kind of appetite, I finally understand why he said he was in urgent need of money.]
[Well, I'll give you a plane and buy some food for the kids. If you're a second late, they'll starve to death.]
This is the first time I have received a gift since the show started, and one plane is 500 yuan. After deducting the platform’s commission, I can still get 250!
Seeing this, some netizens also started sending some small gifts. Although they were not many, a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat.
Yu Chongming remembered the director's words and thanked everyone who gave him a gift.
After dinner, the children went to sleep one after another. Netizens waited until the end of the day's classes and did not find that the children were feeling unwell after eating so much. They even wanted to stay in school reluctantly when school was over.
Just so that I can continue to eat school meals.
Is it really that delicious?
It looks no different from ordinary home-cooked dishes outside.
Because of the special nature of the live broadcast, the senior class was the last to leave school, and the students in the middle and small classes had already left one after another.
The big monsters now have to go through the same process every day when the children don't want to go home. They have become very familiar with it and comforted them one by one: "Mom and Dad are already growing vegetables and can cook for you in the future."
[…Do you grow your own vegetables? Won’t you starve to death?]
What kind of life is this? Please, don't let these good children suffer! I'll give you a few more planes! Make sure your children have enough to eat!
[You mountain folks have a pretty unique way of dressing. Now I think the way your children dress is understandable.]
[Looks like an artist, hahaha! ]
[You can actually tell by looking at the parents' attitudes towards the teachers. If the teachers weren't nice to their children, the parents wouldn't be so grateful. Unless everyone here were professional actors, it wouldn't be so natural from the very beginning.]
[Yes, every parent has a light in their eyes when they look at the principal!]
After sending the last child off, Lian Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and turned around.
Yu Chongming immediately stepped forward and said, "I received a lot of gifts, and I thank you for all of them!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Lian Jiu looked at the camera. "Today's teaching ends here. Thank you all for watching. We will do our best to live broadcast every day in the future. Even if there are special circumstances, we will post the daily teaching videos on the account for everyone to watch."
"Goodbye, then."
Even after the live broadcast ended, some netizens were still not satisfied.
If you can't see the children, it's okay to watch Teacher Lian Jiu! You really don't know how to use your looks to make a living!
Just for this face, many people would want to give gifts after saying a few nice words to her, but this head teacher has no such awareness at all. She never looks at the camera during class, and she steps back from the camera when other teachers are talking, treating herself as just an ordinary teacher.
This really worried many netizens who came here for her beauty.
If you want to find her in the video now, you have to pause it for a few seconds and take a screenshot to see her.
It's so hateful.
Lian Jiu knew nothing about this. She was looking at today's backend income. Although it was a bit controversial, she could still earn about a thousand yuan, and she could withdraw cash every day.
Although she clearly stated that she created the account for money, she needed to let netizens know that the money was indeed spent on the children.
After thinking about it, Lian Jiu decided in the meeting that Yu Chongming would be solely responsible for this matter in the future. He would make a table every day to show how much the money received every day was spent, excluding the platform share and taxes.
"There's one more thing," a teacher said. "Because of our live broadcast, many big monsters said they wanted to come to the office to watch after school today, but the office is full now, so many bird monsters flew up to watch."
And now there is only one computer in the school, in the principal's office.
Even if the funds applied for previously were approved, they would be used for infrastructure construction of new schools and would not be invested here for the time being.
For those big monsters, they cannot have direct contact with humans, but it is also very important to see what humans think of monsters through the screen.
Lian Jiu hummed: "I'll think of a way."
-
The next day was the weekend, so the little monsters didn’t have to go to class and naturally there was no live broadcast.
Su Caifeng also successfully obtained a loan by relying on his unique advantage of only taking in and not spending. So Lian Jiu and Si Lan took several monsters out of the mountain to meet Su Caifeng, preparing to use the money to buy seeds and some edible animals.
Because buying piglets, cattle and lambs requires going to specialty markets in the suburbs or countryside, which takes a long time, so everyone bought the seeds first.
It was already noon, and Lian Jiu took them to a noodle shop.
She can just eat whatever she wants at the noodle shop!
Ba Wu and the other big monsters looked around excitedly. Except for the time of training, they basically did not see a single monster coming out and walking by.
This time I can actually enter human society openly!
They can even sit with humans and eat human food!
Ba Wu took a bite of the noodles and exclaimed in amazement, "It's delicious! I can't wait to get out!"
Lian Jiu silently put a few more pieces of pickled radish into his bowl.
Ba Wu was moved.
It's so easy to satisfy that it makes people sad.
When Lian Jiu was about to take a few more pieces, she suddenly felt someone was staring at her. She hesitated and turned her head. Si Lan's gaze calmly moved from her face to the plate of radishes on the table.
As if trying to count the remaining radishes.
Lien Jiu: "..."
"It's free." She stood up and brought back another plate, placing it in front of Si Lan. "It's all for you."
Only then did Si Lan slowly withdraw his gaze.
Su Caifeng was very disdainful when he saw this scene: "What a promising person! I always told you to come to the human world more often, and now you're like this, right? You're like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, staring at each other with wide eyes over a few pieces of radish."
The other monsters stared silently at the ten empty bowls in front of Zhu Caifeng and the new bowl of noodles.
You don't seem to have seen much of the world.
Si Lan didn't get angry either. He just took out a card and said, "Use this to pay later."
Lian Jiu took it doubtfully: "Card?"
Su Caifeng frowned, feeling that something was not going on: "Why does this aura feel a little familiar?"
"Yeah." Si Lan said calmly, "Because this is your card."
"!!!" Su Caifeng looked at the card in Lian Jiu's hand and wanted to take it back, but he felt that he couldn't bring himself to ask for it in front of the principal.
He was so troubled that he couldn't even eat the noodles in front of him.
Lian Jiu was trying to suppress his laughter and was about to return the card when he heard Si Lan say, "Long Ying gave it to you. You can give it to him if you need anything."
Thinking about how Pixiu was reluctant to spend money and even refused to take a car when going out, Lian Jiu hesitated to return it.
Su Caifeng wanted to reach out secretly, but Si Lan said, "If he dares to take it back, we will eat Pixiu meat tonight."
"..." Su Caifeng gritted his teeth, "Don't think I'm afraid of you."
Si Lan: “Oh?”
Su Caifeng said angrily, "Forget it, I won't bother with you."
Unexpectedly, even the Pixiu was afraid of Si Lan. Lian Jiu couldn't help but move closer to Si Lan and asked, "Were all the rabbit monsters you had before so powerful?"
Si Lan paused while eating noodles and raised his eyebrows: "Hmm."
Several monsters wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. In the past, they had few opportunities to come into such close contact with these demon gods. They were all very respectful and afraid, especially the God Si Lan, because the entire Fu Yu Mountain was covered by his divine power. Unexpectedly, after getting along with him now, he was not that scary after all.
After eating the noodles, everyone went together to find the small bus with painted horses to go to the suburbs.
Su Caifeng saw some advertisements on the roadside and suddenly said, "Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon."
After hearing this, Lian Jiu noticed that there were many advertisements hanging outside saying "Celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival" and a variety of mooncakes were also appearing.
The new monsters who had never been out of the mountains didn't understand: "What is Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"It's a festival of reunion," Su Caifeng said. "In ancient times, families would gather together at this time to celebrate, eat mooncakes, and admire the moon. It was a very auspicious festival."
He smiled and turned to look at Si Lan: "We've experienced Mid-Autumn Festival together before, right?"
"Um."
Su Caifeng: "It's been so many years, I really miss it."
Si Lan lowered his eyes and said calmly, "What are you missing? The days when you couldn't even buy mooncakes and were always trying to get close to the demon gods?"
"...It's really unpleasant chatting with you." Su Caifeng walked over to Lian Jiu. "I heard that Teacher Lian Jiu is also a demon god. How did you celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival in the past? By the way, I didn't see you back then. Are you a recluse?"
Si Lan also seemed to be interested and turned to look at her.
Lien Jiu: "..."
In the past, she would return to the welfare home after the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday to spend time with the director and the children. Now that she has no relatives, it doesn’t make any sense anymore.
She coughed lightly: "I have lost my memory, I have lost my memory."
Si Lan laughed.
Ba Wu, who had no experience, scratched his head and asked the headmaster, who seemed to know the most, "Teacher Lian Jiu, how do we celebrate the festival? Can we monsters celebrate it too?"
Of course the monsters can pass.
Not only that, kindergartens usually hold some small activities in advance for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
It just sounds like the monsters in the current demon world have never experienced any festivals. Even the demon god has not experienced it since he woke up.
Lian Jiu was thinking about it, and when he came to his senses, he saw that both the demon gods and the monsters were waiting for his answer.
What's going on?
Is this for her to decide?!
