"Are you a family member of Regiment Commander Lu Jinyuan of the Army Corps?" the man asked first to ascertain Ran Jinnian's identity.
“I am Lu Jinyuan’s wife, and my name is Ran Jinnian.”
Ran Jinnian wasn't afraid that the other party had any bad intentions, after all, this was a military region.
"Hello, my name is Chen Chunrong, and I am the director of teaching at the military district primary school." Chen Chunrong's gaze fell on Ran Jinnian's stomach, and her pupils contracted slightly.
Ran Jinnian was even more confused: "Director Chen, hello, may I ask what brings you here?"
"Comrade Ran, I heard that you only have a high school diploma."
Chen Chunrong's tone was a mix of happiness and disappointment.
"yes."
Ran Jinnian didn't expect that the news would spread so quickly after she said it yesterday. She should be more careful with her words in the future.
Chen Chunrong smiled broadly: "Comrade Ran, here's the situation: the military region's primary school urgently needs teachers. You have a high school diploma, which perfectly meets the requirements for a primary school teacher in the military region."
It's really not easy; finally, a highly educated person has come to the family compound.
Ran Jinnian never expected that a job would fall from the sky without her even looking for one.
She noticed the two men were still standing at the door: "Director Chen, please come in and have a seat."
Ran Jinnian brewed a cup of tea for Chen Chunrong, who was somewhat surprised. In the past, when she came to the family compound, the military wives would only drink plain water or sugar water.
"Director Chen, this tea was picked from the mountains. I don't know if you'll like it."
Lu Jinyuan enjoys drinking tea, and this tea was prepared by an old man himself.
Chen Chunrong tasted it; although it wasn't a particularly expensive tea, the flavor was quite unique.
“Very good.” Chen Chunrong wasn’t in a hurry to drink his tea; he was there to discuss serious matters: “Comrade Ran, what do you think of what I just said?”
"Director Chen, I did not graduate from a teachers' college."
Ran Jinnian knew that there were conditions for becoming a teacher.
"That's fine." Chen Chunrong only looks at academic qualifications now; the military region is too remote, and many people are unwilling to come.
Ran Jinnian said helplessly, "Director Chen, I am currently heavily pregnant and have difficulty moving around. I am afraid I am not able to take on the role of a teacher."
She just wants to focus on her pregnancy and doesn't want to overwork herself.
Chen Chunrong certainly saw her big belly. It was rare to have a highly educated family member come, but it turned out to be a pregnant woman.
He realized that the school was severely understaffed, and one teacher was practically being used as three.
Chen Chunrong came up with a solution: "Look at this, you can teach second-grade Chinese, just teach the children to recognize characters and read books."
"Director Chen, how many classes are there in the second grade?" Ran Jinnian didn't expect Director Chen to be so insistent.
"Four classes."
Ran Jin had a big idea: "Then I'll have to take four Chinese classes a day."
Chen Chunrong shook her head: "No, no, no, you only need to attend two classes a day."
Ran Jinnian?
"Chinese class doesn't have to be every day; each class has one class every other day," Chen Chunrong explained.
Ran Jinnian then remembered that the courses nowadays were simpler than those in later years.
"Even though you're heavily pregnant, you only have two classes a day and weekends off, so it's still very easy for you."
Seeing that Ran Jinnian wasn't very interested, Chen Chunrong continued, "If you become a teacher, you'll earn 25 yuan a month."
"It was originally 35 yuan, but you have too few class hours, so it's only 25 yuan."
Ran Jin thought for a moment and said, "Director Chen, even if I become a teacher now, I will have a baby in two or three months. After that, I will have to take care of the baby, and I won't be able to continue teaching for at least two or three years."
Her main focus now is on her children.
Chen Chunrong sighed slightly, knowing that Ran Jinnian had rejected him.
"Comrade Ran, I apologize for disturbing you." Chen Chunrong stood up.
Ran Jinnian called out to him, "Director Chen, I have a friend who also has a high school diploma. I wonder if you would be willing to take her in?"
