Watching Peng Zhe enter the school, Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen took the children to the nearby platform to take the bus to the Children's Palace. The younger aunt and uncle left without a trace of nostalgia. The speed at which their expressions changed made Shen An Ning exclaim in her heart, "What a guy!" In fact, this cannot be blamed on the younger aunt. After all, she has two sons, and the eldest son is worry-free in every way. All the suffering she suffered from her children was caused by Peng Zhe!
Mr. and Mrs. Shen are invigilators today, but the exam site they are invigilating is at Peking University High School.
"An Ning, mom and dad are leaving first. There are a lot of people on the road today, so remember to ride slowly."
"Yeah, I know. Mom and Dad, please drive slowly. There are still 40 to 50 minutes left before the exam. There's no need to rush."
After sending his parents away, Shen Anning went to cram school first. Everyone agreed to meet here today.
During the past half month of summer vacation, all the teachers have been on call almost all day, teaching during the day and preparing lessons at night. Shen An Ning has seen all of this, and today is the day to pay them their salaries and bonuses so that everyone can relax during the rest of the summer vacation.
In the courtyard, a group of young people sat together and chatted. Although they were all teachers at the same cram school, they usually worked in different places and did not teach the same subjects. They only met occasionally when preparing lessons, so today they could be considered to have gotten to know each other.
When Shen Anning entered the room, she saw a group of people talking and laughing.
"Oh, the boss finally decided to come." In the past half month, Shen An Ning hadn't seen her in the tutoring class except for delivering food, so Liu Jiaman started teasing her as soon as she saw her.
"You have to come today. If I don't come today, no one will give you money."
Taking the account book from Liu Jiaman's hand, including Liu Jiaman and the other four people, and Shen Anning's five roommates, there are a total of seventy-six teachers participating in the work this summer.
Shen Anning took out the prepared red envelope and said, "Everyone has worked hard during this holiday. Without saying too much, let's just give the money directly. One envelope for each person. Is there any extra?"
Wu Siqi, who was close to Shen Anning, felt that the red envelope was a bit thick when she got it. She opened it and counted it. There were twelve big black tens, one hundred and twenty yuan.
She looked at Lin Nan next to her. Everyone’s red envelopes were the same. Although they had seen Shen Anning’s generosity before, this was one hundred and twenty yuan. They had only worked for sixteen days. To be honest, it was too much!
Many people who come to work during the summer vacation, the first thing they think of when they get the money is that they are given too much. I don’t know why they feel that they didn’t work hard enough before. Let alone eight hours a day, they can work even sixteen hours!
"Um, boss, is this too much money?"
Shen Anning took out a key from her bag and said, "It's not much, it's what everyone deserves. The daily salary for sixteen days is five yuan, a total of eighty, twenty yuan for overtime pay, and twenty yuan for everyone's bonus."
"There is also a small gift prepared for everyone. It's in the kitchen." Yesterday she specifically said that they would gather here today. She didn't go to the courtyard where Geng Yue and the others lived. She came here last night and put the things in the kitchen.
Wang Jiadong took the key and opened the door, wow!
This is even more shocking than seeing one hundred and twenty!
I saw the kitchen table was full of snacks, all wrapped in oil paper!
"I originally wanted to prepare something different for everyone, but it was hard to get meat and cloth coupons. Luckily, I knew a master who made dim sum, so I asked him to make some for everyone. The sweet ones are sugar-coated steamed buns, jujube flower crisps, and red bean paste-filled pot cakes. The salty ones are ox tongue biscuits. I gave each person a box as a token of my appreciation." The private economy has not been liberalized yet, and the only way to make so many dim sum at once is to ask someone you know to make them. No one can come up with 70 or 80 kilograms of dim sum coupons at once!
Wang Jiadong and several boys brought out the tables. Everyone was very gentlemanly and asked the girls to choose first.
Lin Nan, Wang Siqi and the others chose different dishes, and planned to share them with everyone in the dormitory so that they could have more varieties to eat.
"That's right. We can just take different ones and divide them up when we get back."
Shen Anning had previously asked Geng Yue to count how many teachers had families in Beijing. This time, she just told them to come over to work overtime after the college entrance examination results came out, and the others could wait until next semester to come normally.
After seeing off the joyous crowd, Xu Hongxia closed the courtyard gate. Next came the meeting of the elders. During these sixteen days, apart from the teacher's salary of more than 9,000 yuan, the four aunts' salary of 100 yuan, and Shen An Ning's food of about 2,000 yuan, the final balance was about 10,000 yuan.
According to the old rules, each of them was given 1,000 yuan.
"Yueyue, when did you buy your train tickets back to Northeast China?"
"It's tonight. There happens to be a direct train tonight, so we don't have to transfer."
Shen Anning took out the 500 yuan and some bills she had prepared and handed them to Geng Yue. "Yueyue, please take this money back with you. When you pass by the county, buy some things for the aunts and children in the village. An Yu, An Xuan, and Xi Xi also prepared things for their friends. Since there are a lot of things, I will send them back directly. Please take it back when you pass by the post office."
Geng Yue knew Shen Anning's personality, so she didn't refuse and directly accepted the money and ticket. "Don't worry, I will definitely convey your thoughts."
In this era, transportation and mail are slow, and Shen Anning is still very grateful to the people in the village. Her younger brothers, sisters, and nieces are also well taken care of by the villagers, so she also wants to try her best to help some young people who have come out of the two villages. When they are successful and give back to their hometown, the lives of the villagers will naturally be better.
This year, she also sent back several copies of the test papers prepared by the tutoring class. I believe that the village chiefs of the two villages are wise old men and understand her intentions.
August 16th is the day that everyone is both looking forward to and nervous about, because the college entrance examination results will be announced today. This year is a national unified examination. 293,000 of the 6.1 million candidates will be admitted, and an additional 110,000 college students will be admitted.
Early in the morning, when Shen An Ning woke up, she felt that the atmosphere at home was a bit tense. Peng Zhe was also unusually quiet today. Since the end of the exam, he has been at home every day, waking up to eat, eating and sleeping, or going out to play with classmates. He lives a very free and easy life. However, the results have not come out yet, and his aunt is not good at punishing him.
"Why, are you getting nervous now?"
"Oh my god, sister, seriously, you are my real sister." Seeing that Peng Zhe was about to cry, Shen An Ning did not stimulate him anymore.
"Okay, go to school and wait. When the results come out, come find me at the cram school over at Peking University."
Starting today, there will be teachers in the cram school all day to receive the students and parents who come. To be honest, Shen Anning herself is also very nervous. Although she has confidence in the teachers of the tutoring class and has seen the last two students' mock exams, she really can't relax until the dust settles.
