Chapter 678 The Decision of the Four Old Men
After the two left, Zheng Zhiyuan and the old man discussed Jiang Chen's recent abnormal behavior.
Zhou Yuqing complained, "I've already drawn up the design for the courtyard next door, but this guy insisted on canceling it and rebuilding it. Guess what he said?"
Seeing that he was still keeping the secret, Wang Guoping glared at him and said, "Go ahead and talk."
Zhou Yuqing found their reaction boring. The old man, half buried in the earth, shrugged and complained, "This brat wants me to design the children's living quarters as far away from the inner courtyard as possible."
This sounded outrageous, but the old man present did not doubt its truth at all.
Because this is indeed something that Jiang Xiaozi can do.
"That's a bit strange." Liu Yutang stroked his beard and said slowly, "This guy has been pestering me these days to ask about women giving birth whenever he gets the chance..."
Zheng Zhiyuan snorted and said with forced satisfaction: "This is what he should do. What's so strange about it?"
Liu Yutang shook his head when he heard this. "This kid's reaction is wrong. I tried to comfort him by saying that Xiaorou has a good foundation and the possibility of something happening during childbirth is extremely small. But this brat kept looking sour. The more I said it was okay, the uglier his face became."
He spread his hands and said, "Don't you think his reaction is very strange?"
Wang Guoping also said, "I've noticed these past few days that this guy has been following Rou girl everywhere. It seems like he's just too worried and has become overly nervous."
He tapped his watch and said, "It's only a ten-minute drive from home to school, and this kid hasn't come back yet. Guess where he went?"
Zhou Yuqing curled his lips: "You still say I'm keeping you in suspense, hurry up and tell me."
Wang Guoping snorted at him before saying, "After this brat sent Miss Rou to class, he waited outside the school for the entire day. This has been happening every day these past few days."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the old men present became serious.
When they were in the cowshed in Dahe Village, this brat came to them and said that he could provide them with food, on the condition that these old men would teach him everything they had learned in their lives.
At that time, the brat was obviously only about fifteen years old and as thin as a monkey, but his eyes were like those of an old monster who had lived for many years, and looked more vicissitudes of life than those old men.
Their conditions in the cowshed were poor, but for the sake of food, they reluctantly agreed to teach him.
This kid is mature and talented. With a little polishing, he can be transformed from a stubborn stone into a jade.
They were inspired to appreciate his talent and paid more attention to his teaching than before.
Three years passed like this. Under the guidance of their group and Liu Yutang, who occasionally came to the cowshed to deliver meals, the vicissitudes of life in the boy's eyes faded a lot.
They all thought they had made him a successful person, but they never expected that this kid's extreme and crazy side would be exposed.
He often went to Changdu Town to fight. At the beginning, he was not very skilled and came back covered in wounds.
Later, when he grew up and his muscles and bones became stronger, and with the guidance of Li Weijun, his fighting skills improved by leaps and bounds. When he came back, he was no longer covered in wounds, but was covered in blood - other people's blood.
This brat also has a habit of breaking other people's teeth. There is a whole jar of teeth that are clanging and jingling, and the blood is splashing, which looks particularly scary.
Only then did they realize that this boy had a cruel nature and would become a great harm if he was not restrained.
Although I don’t know why a little kid living in a mountain village has such a terrible character.
But after all, he was their disciple, and they couldn't bear to see him go astray.
Xi people took turns to fight, and Zhou Yuqing even risked being reported and recited Buddhist scriptures to this brat every day.
It's useless.
This brat is unyielding. Although he no longer fights, I always feel that he is up to no good.
After observation, Liu Yutang told them a shocking answer: this kid was thinking of a way to kill someone silently.
Jiang Dehai's family was the target he wanted to attack.
Jiang Dehai's second son Jiang Xing was his first target.
They tried to stop it, but it was no use.
The boy let them talk and steadily carried out his murder plan.
Since Ye Rou appeared, everything has been going in a good direction.
They all thought that this kid had turned over a new leaf.
Unexpectedly, Ye Rou's pregnancy brought out the extreme and crazy side of this boy again.
Zheng Zhiyuan couldn't just stand by and watch. If he let this kid continue, he might end up hurting Ye Rou.
After a moment of silence, he suggested, "I think this brat is just too idle. Let's start teaching him again from now on."
"Teaching a class?" Zhou Yuqing was a little slow to react. "That kid has almost learned all our skills. What else can we teach him?"
Zheng Zhiyuan glanced at the three of them and said, "I'll give him calligraphy lessons to help him calm down."
Wang Guoping understood and immediately said, "I'll take this kid fishing to help him recuperate."
Zhou Yuqing knocked on the table and said excitedly, "Then I'll take the kid to do carpentry work to test his patience."
Liu Yutang pondered for a while, then his eyes lit up: "This kid can help me grind and dry the herbs to calm his anger."
Zheng Zhiyuan nodded with satisfaction: "That's settled."
"But..." Wang Guoping doubted, "Can this kid listen to us?"
Zheng Zhiyuan snorted, "He will, because he knows better than the rest of us that if he continues like this, he will hurt Xiaorou."
The old man understood and smiled strangely.
——
The three-story building, which will be the future office of the Student Union, has been completed.
Ji Chunming went to the Education Bureau for a meeting, and Qian Hui took Ye Rou to see the small building.
The interior decoration has been slightly modified while maintaining the original wood color.
The functional departments of the Student Union were divided according to what Ye Rou provided, and even a telephone line was specially set up to facilitate communication.
After reading it, Ye Rou nodded with satisfaction. "It's really great. Such a big change in such a short time. Director Qian, thank you and Principal Ji for your hard work."
Qian Hui felt relieved to hear this.
He smiled and said generously, "These are all trivial matters. The principal asked me to cooperate with you. What are you going to do first?"
Ye Rou smiled and said, "Recruiting people."
Within one class hour, the student union recruitment notice was distributed to each class and all teachers and students in the school.
Some students are confused:
"Presidium, Propaganda Department, Organization Department, External Relations Department, Study Department, Life Department, Arts Department, Sports Department... Why are there so many departments? What exactly does the Student Union do?"
"I don't know, but it sounds interesting."
There were also positive responses:
"The student union is recruiting, I want to sign up!"
"You know what the student union is about, so you signed up?"
"I don't know, but following Ye Rou is definitely the right thing to do!"
But there are also those who are pessimistic.
Some of these people think that this will affect students' studies and simply do not support it:
"It's so flashy! I really don't understand why Principal Ji supports her nonsense. The most important thing for students is to study. Why do they have to deal with all this nonsense?"
"I think the school teachers just wanted to be lazy and dump all the work on the students, so they set up this student union."
But there were also some who simply couldn't stand the fact that Ye Rou, a girl, was the president:
"There's no benefit in joining the student union. Instead, we're told to do things by a woman. If you want to sign up, go ahead. I'm not going anyway."
"I won't go either. I support Zheng Daoguang. Who would have thought he would be so crazy and get himself and the Zheng family into trouble?"
"If he had been more determined, he wouldn't have let a woman show off."
"We'll see. Ye Rou can't build this student union. Even if she recruits enough people, it won't last for more than a few days."
“That’s right!”
