Gu Wanwan's voice was calm, yet it carried a sense of authority. "You can't blame anyone else for your choice. From today on, I will no longer support the village school. You will have to figure it out on your own. As for the teachers' salaries, Xiangyang Village will cover them. We won't cover any subsequent expenses, and we won't interfere in the school's affairs. You're on your own."
Zhao Guoming was devastated. In the past, the neighboring brigade envied Xiangyang Village for having a school where children could go to school for free and school supplies were distributed free of charge from time to time. Even the leaders of the village praised him for his proper management and remarkable achievements since he took office.
But he forgot that his glory was given by Sister Wan.
In the beginning, the old man in the cowshed taught for free and even offered not to pay salary points. The real beneficiary was Xiangyang Village. Now that Sister Wan and her colleagues have all withdrawn their investment, how could those leaders possibly pay the teachers more?
By then, there will definitely be complaints in the brigade. How can Xu Luoxue and other educated youths be so selfless and provide free teaching to the village?
Secondly, their academic qualifications were not as high as those of the old man in the cowshed, and they were not as knowledgeable as him. At that time, when the old man in the cowshed was teaching, the other team leaders often criticized him. In fact, they were all envious and jealous. The students taught by the professors were not at the same level as those taught in junior high and high schools. These children in Xiangyang Village were definitely ahead of other teams.
Ever since they knew that Xiangyang Village had tacitly agreed to the complete cowshed teaching, the team leaders had privately mocked Zhao Guoming many times, saying that Xiangyang Village deserved to go downhill when it could not even hold on to such a wealth of knowledge.
All of them were defeated by the new educated youth!
"I won't destroy a single brick or tile, you can rest assured." Gu Wanwan didn't bother to pay attention to him. She had decided to demolish the house and turn it into ruins tomorrow.
Deng Xiunv still felt unsatisfied. "Dad and Mom, you'd better pray for your own good. I don't know how much longer you can hold the position of team leader."
Zhao Guoming and Aunt Lu were so ashamed and regretful that they couldn't even raise their heads and could only watch Gu Wanwan leave.
Along the way, I heard Deng Xiunv mention that the old house of the Deng family was right next to Gu Qingtang's house. Because it was close to the mountains and forests, the environment was very quiet, but it was a bit desolate because no one had lived there for a long time. However, it could be lived in after some renovations.
Gu Wanwan had an idea in mind: she planned to buy the Deng family's old house. "I've signed contracts with department stores all over the place. I want to set up a small factory and have selected people come here to work. This is also where we'll exchange local products. From today on, Deng Xiuniu will be the team leader. Help me find a few reliable women. Those who are proficient in hand embroidery will be preferred. They will be accepted after passing the assessment, but those who are cunning and dishonest will be excused."
Deng Xiunv was so excited that her heart was flying. She almost fainted from the surprise. "Sister Wan, I will never betray your parents' trust like my mother-in-law did. If you don't want to buy the house, I can transfer it to you. I will definitely make it beautiful for you. I will call my family to come and evaluate it now."
They did it right away and sent Deng Xiunv back to her parents' home at the fastest speed in her life and immediately called her family over.
The Deng family was still gathering mountain products. "Xiu Nu, are you so eager to be reincarnated?"
Deng Xiunv took a breath and cut to her family, "Mom, Wanjie wants to buy our old house, and I'm giving it to her. Don't pick any more. Let the men in the family do the harvesting. Mom, sister-in-law, younger sister, and niece will all take the test with me. Knitting and embroidery are the strengths of our Deng family. If you pass the test, you'll be officially a member. I'm the team leader now."
Deng's mother was overjoyed and praised her daughter for her excellence, saying she was much more promising than her sons. "Our Deng family's ancestral graves are smoking. This is a legitimate, respectable, and secure job. Who will dare to accuse us of not doing the right thing in the future?"
Even Deng's mother urged her, and she quickly made a decision. "Those who can't sew, come with me to clean and repair the old house. I'll go find the captain to transfer the house. We'll split up and work together separately."
All the female members of the Deng family went to look for Wan Jie with Deng Xiu Nu. Among the group of women, there was an exception: Deng Xiao Di, who was once the object of Voldemort's love and the most favored one in the family.
